NCT ID: NCT05443100 Recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Impact of WBC on Patients With Metabolic or Neurological Diseases or Fibromyalgia (WBC-WBC-MeNeFi)

WBC-MeNeFi
Start date: April 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate on different types of patients the effects of 10 sessions of whole-body cryostimulation (WBC): 1) in patients with obesity (BMI > 30), we want to investigate whether WBC increases thermogenesis, basal metabolic rate (BMR), respiratory quotient (which indirectly provides an estimate of energy substrate oxidation), reduces chronic inflammatory status, fatigue and pain, and improves functional abilities and general physical capacity; 2) in patients diagnosed with fibromyalgia, we want to investigate the reduction of pain, inflammatory status, increase in functional abilities and general physical abilities functional status and an improvement in mood; 3) in neurological patients diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and Disimmune Polyneuropathies, the effects of WBC on pain, fatigue, and sleep quality are to be investigated; 4) in normal/overweight (BMI<30 kg/m2) subjects, the effects of WBC on all parameters described previously for the other protocols are to be investigated. Specifically, for all enrolled subjects, we want to assess blood catecholamine levels, investigate the effects of sympathetic response on body composition, blood pressure, heart rate, lipid profile, and physical performance. Three hundred patients admitted for a rehabilitation program (diet + physiotherapy + exercise) will be non-randomly assigned to either a group following the program (R) or a group additionally receiving ten 2-3 minute WBC sessions at -110°C over two weeks (RWBC).

NCT ID: NCT04958577 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Mental Health Conditions

Clinic Waiting Room-based Study of Swahili Language Artificial Intelligence-driven Symptom Assessments in Tanzanian Primary Health Care Facilities

AFYA
Start date: August 3, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study will evaluate the accuracy of the condition suggestions and urgency advice of the Swahili language Ada symptom assessment application (SAA), when symptoms are input by a lay-person user and a medical professional; these SAA results will then be compared to the condition suggestions and urgency advice of different tiers of doctors and a "gold standard" created by a panel.

NCT ID: NCT01631604 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Neurological Conditions

Gait Characteristics Following a Fall

Start date: June 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to quantify the safety degree of the patient's gait, to detect the reason for the fall and quantify the biomechanical parameters related to fall. This study also aims to evaluate the effect of different rehabilitation treatments and their effect on the risk of falling.

NCT ID: NCT00857922 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Neurological Conditions

Neurosciences Research Repository

NRR
Start date: March 2009
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In order to expand neuroscience research and move laboratory advances to patients, there is a need to integrate reliable clinical data with biologic information from patient tissue specimens. The Neuroscience Research Repository (NRR) seeks to meet this need. The NRR is a prospective database and sample bank created to collect information and samples for current and future neuroscience research. The objective of this NRR is to develop a data and sample repository for study of neurological conditions. A repository utilizing standardized electronic health data and samples collected in a uniform manner serves to foster the ability to perform research on current and future projects. Samples and data for clinical, genomic and proteomic analysis will be provided to optimize their value for neuroscience research. The NRR will enroll patients and collect clinically recorded longitudinal data for as long as they are followed by the Neurosurgery service and up to an additional 5 years after being released from care. Patients will be enrolled on admission to the service and samples will be taken at three time points: Time One, within 24 hours of event (preferably first blood draw); Time Two, within 48 hours of event; and Time Three, time of any residual tissue availability. Family members of select groups of patients will also be approached for enrollment. Samples and data will be labeled with a study code to maintain confidentiality. Samples and data will be maintained in secure, limited access environments with back-up/redundancy procedures in place. Sample inventory will be maintained with a bar-coding system. A duty to warn clause will be included in the consent as will the determination of willingness to be re-contacted for future research. Time of sample acquisition to time of sample processing will be documented for quality control purposes. Freezers will be monitored for temperature stability. Recipient investigators will be requested to provide feedback on sample quality. Samples will be distributed to neuroscience investigators after approval from the Neurosurgery Scientific Review Committee - Dissemination Review Committee and the Committee for the Protection of Human Subjects (CPHS).

NCT ID: NCT00491894 Completed - Cerebral Palsy Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy Study of Oral Glycopyrrolate Liquid for the Treatment of Pathologic (Chronic Moderate to Severe) Drooling in Pediatric Patients 3 to 18 Years of Age With Cerebral Palsy or Other Neurologic Conditions

Start date: March 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is an open-label clinical research study of an oral glycopyrrolate liquid for the treatment of chronic moderate to severe drooling in patients with cerebral palsy or other neurological conditions. Patients participating in the study will receive oral glycopyrrolate liquid (1 mg/5 ml) three times a day (TID) for study duration of 24 weeks. After a washout, screening, and 2-day baseline period, patients will be enrolled in a 4-week dose titration period. Glycopyrrolate liquid doses will be titrated using dose levels in the Dose Titration Schedule. Titration will begin at 0.02 mg/kg per dose TID and sequentially increased in 0.02 mg/kg per dose increments TID every 5-7 days during the first four weeks until optimal individualized response is obtained for each patient or a maximum dose of 0.1 mg/kg TID is reached, not exceeding 3 mg TID or Dose-level 5 in the Dose Titration Schedule, whichever is lesser. Optimal dose for each patient is the dose at which he/she is receiving the maximum benefit from the study drug (greatest improvement in drooling) while experiencing minimum side effects. All patients will receive close attention by study staff throughout the study.
