There are about 173942 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United States. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The overarching goal of this study is to mimic a night shift work like schedule and characterize circadian variation in Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV), a measure of arterial stiffness, and determine the impact of acute loss of sleep like that experienced by shift workers on PWV.
This study will address whether acute adaptive RV pacing in sinus rhythm patients with severe LV systolic dysfunction and RBBB is superior to no ventricular pacing, and is as effective as echocardiographically optimized biventricular (BIV) pacing based on Medtronic ECG belt and cardiac performance as assessed by the echocardiographic parameters of RV and LV function.
This project is designed to refine a 6-week telehealth therapy intervention targeting negative interpersonal beliefs among community-dwelling youth with elevated levels of psychopathology. The study design is a single-arm open trial. The intervention is comprised of weekly teen and parent group cognitive-behavioral therapy, regular check-ins with the youths, and a module embedded throughout treatment that targets negative interpersonal beliefs (i.e., perceived social disconnection, burdensomeness). The goal of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of the treatment and assessment protocol, refine the intervention based on qualitative feedback, and evaluate changes in negative interpersonal beliefs. Youths complete two qualitative interviews about their interpersonal relationships and their feedback about the intervention.
The primary objective of this study is to collect whole blood from patients diagnosed with Glycogen storage disease type 1B, which will be used to support the investigation of potential therapies that address the genetic basis of this disease.
The primary study objective is to collect biospecimen samples (e.g., blood) from participants diagnosed with Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD). The biospecimens will be used to create a biorepository that can be used to identify disease associated biomarkers and potential targets with immune and multi-omics profiling. The disease sample collection and analysis will be the foundation for an extensive network of biospecimen access and linked datasets for future translational research.
Occupational therapy is uniquely poised to help address chronic Eating Disorders (EDs) because of our holistic approach to client care. The complex and serious nature of EDs spans so many areas of life and wellbeing, it requires an intervention strategy that addresses the whole person across mental, physical, social, and spiritual realms. Unfortunately, specialized care for EDs can be difficult to find - especially for those not sick enough to be admitted to an inpatient facility but who are still struggling to thrive in daily life. For example, in New Mexico there is only one inpatient treatment center for EDs and no specialized outpatient services. This leaves many people suffering from EDs without options for care because they are not yet sick enough. There is a need for novel interventions in this setting that go beyond the traditional weight and food-focused medical interventions and seek to help empower individuals, work around challenges, and live their lives to the fullest. To meet this need in our community, the study team is developing a preliminary outpatient treatment program. The ROADE (Restorative Occupational Approaches for Disordered Eating) Program is an 8-week, structured, multimodal intervention seeking to reduce psychosocial symptoms and improve self-management skills for disordered eating. The intervention strategies range from: (1) wellness activities like mindfulness meditation to improve interoception, self-acceptance, and as a self-guided coping tool (2) adaptation of health management and self-care occupations to improve daily functioning while navigating ongoing disordered eating symptoms and (3) light exercise like Yoga and lymphatic drainage exercises to reconnect in a positive way with the body, improve digestion, promote relaxation, and reduce muscle tension. The current research investigates the feasibility and acceptability of this intervention while testing preliminary effects on eating disorder symptoms.
The primary study objective is to collect biospecimen samples (e.g., blood) from participants diagnosed with Fanconi Anemia. The biospecimens will be used to create a biorepository that can be used to identify disease associated biomarkers and potential targets with immune and multi-omics profiling. The disease sample collection and analysis will be the foundation for an extensive network of biospecimen access and linked datasets for future translational research.
This is an extension of an ongoing study. Preliminary results from the ongoing study indicate that the MyProstateScore 2.0 (MPS 2.0) Test is significantly improving early diagnosis of prostate cancer. This extension will allow us to ask the study participants in the ongoing study to share patient-level data for chart abstraction. The specific purpose of this study is to generate high-quality real-world data on the clinical utility of LynxDx's new MPS 2.0 test.
The objective of this protocol is to assess response to kisspeptin and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) stimulation testing as well as the baseline patterns of luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion in individuals who carry variants in genes related to infertility.
This study will examine the differential relationships between antipsychotic efficacy and changes in dopaminergic and glutamatergic brain metabolism in lumateperone and risperidone treated early psychosis patients. Baseline glutamate and dopamine brain scans, and symptom severity measures will be collected, followed by repeated measures at 6 weeks. Half of the early psychosis patients will be treated with lumateperone, half with risperidone. Healthy control subejcts will also be examined once.
