The goal of this observational study is to learn about the composition and function of the gut microbiome in adults with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. How does the gut microbiome and its interactions with the host change over time in adults with chronic heart failure? 2. How do these changes relate to heart failure disease severity and complications?
The goal of this study is to assess if excessive use of smartphone apps of social media can impact a person's mental health. The study is aimed at improving the usage of smartphones which might help improve the mental health of patients. The goal is not to discourage the use of smartphones but instead to utilize smartphones in a way that they do not impact lives.

The proposed specific aims are: Aim 1: To create the CCM-C training program. Aim 2: To assess preliminary training effectiveness. Aim 3: To gather training program quality improvement feedback from corrections stakeholders.
The studied indication is degenerative conditions of the lumbar spine resulting in back pain with lower extremity symptoms and neurogenic claudication. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of instrumented posterior arthrodesis using the Spinal Simplicity Minuteman G5 MIS Fusion Plate and bone graft material in patients with degenerative conditions of the lumbar spine resulting in chronic low back pain with lower extremity symptoms and concurrent neurogenic claudication.
This is a randomized, split-face, subject-blinded, comparative study. Subjects will receive initial treatment with Defyne on one of the NLFs and with RHA3 on the other based on the pre-determined randomization. 4 weeks after the initial treatment, subjects will receive optional touch-up on one side or both sides at the Investigator's discretion for optimal correction. Subjects to return to the site at Month 3, 6, and 12 for follow-ups.
This study explores the potential use of DNA markers in the detection of prostate cancer and patient perceptions of this screening approach and other current or future prostate cancer screening and diagnostic tests.
This study aims to characterize sex differences in the pathophysiology of vaso-occlusive crises (VOC) occurring among individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD). - The study will compare CRP and other biomarkers between females with SCD in the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle and males with SCD. - The study will explore potential sex differences in biomarker changes between females and males with SCD during and following resolution of VOC. - The study will compare neutrophil and platelet adhesion to the endothelium and real time fibrin deposition in the blood.
This clinical trial is designed to test the safety and tolerability of injecting ANPD001 cells that will mature into dopamine-producing cells into the brain of participants with Parkinson Disease. All participants will have ANPD001 cells manufactured from their own previously collected cells.
A Phase 1, First-in-human, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of VG-3927 in Healthy Adults
This study explores the impact of hearing aid settings for managing sudden sounds on speech comprehension and recall in individuals with hearing loss. Participants will undergo a comprehensive audiological evaluation, case history, and cognitive assessments. Subsequently, they will participate in listening experiments designed to measure sentence recognition, storage, and retrieval under various sudden sound reduction conditions recorded through a hearing aid. The experiment will be complemented by subjective preference ratings to identify participant comfort and listening clarity associated with different sudden sound reduction settings.
