For this study, the investigators are recruiting 54 individuals with Parkinson's Disease and Freezing of Gait (FOG) who are planning to undergo Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). The objective of this study is to better understand the FOG response to DBS. Prior to DBS, participants will undergo an MRI scan, behavioral assessment related to walking, a cognitive evaluation, and assessment of other Parkinson's disease symptoms. Following DBS, participants will repeat these assessments at multiple timepoints over the period of one year. Overall, participants will complete a total of 7 visits over a period of approximately 1 year. Read Less

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether tarlatamab is an effective treatment for DLL3-positive prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of your body (metastasized) and has either come back after treatment (relapsed) or not responded to treatment (refractory). Read Less

Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a dysrhythmia characterized rapid heart rate, typically with rapid onset. SVT accounts for over 50,000 emergency department visits per year. Of patients with regular, narrow-complex SVT, the mainstay of therapy includes adenosine and diltiazem. Adenosine is recommend by American and European guidelines as first-line therapy, however adenosine carries unique side effects that are potentially distressing to patients, including: "feeling of impending death or doom", flushing, anxiety, shortness of breath, and chest discomfort. Diltiazem does not carry this side effect profile, but has typically been reserved as second-line treatment due to side effects of low blood pressure associated with this class of medications. Diltiazem and adenosine have not been well studied head-to-head to compare safety and efficacy of their treatment for SVT. The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of adenosine and diltiazem for SVT in the ED (as completed through chart review of specific patient-level outcomes) and capture patient and clinician perspectives of medication satisfaction (through administration of questionnaires).

The goal of this observational study is to better understand real-world use of vimseltinib, treatment patterns, and health-related quality of life in participants treated with vimseltinib for TGCT. This study will collect data in an observational disease registry involving no intervention to the participants and will not influence standard medical care or impact treatment decisions for participants.

The Healthy Living BEYOND Weight Study is an observational research study of participants living with overweight and obesity. The principal objectives for this project will be to answer fundamental unanswered questions regarding patient experiences and outcomes related to overweight and obesity, and to assess the real-world effectiveness of different weight management strategies, within contemporary and diverse populations. To accomplish this, the Study Team for this project will leverage their expertise in the science of obesity and cardiometabolic health; epidemiology, cohort and registry studies; implementation science; cardiovascular prevention and management; and disparities and community-based research to lead the development of an innovative cohort of people living with overweight or obesity with two key components: 1. patient-report data elements, obtained through surveys; 2. linkage to EHR records providing data regarding clinical encounters. The cohort will be inclusive, comprehensive, and constructed with scientific rigor as well as high internal and external validity. An overall objective is for the Healthy Living BEYOND Weight Study is to serve as an enduring resource for researchers studying the health consequences of obesity and evaluating the impact of weight management strategies.

Physical activity and exercise help manage symptoms like fatigue in people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). Despite research supporting physical activity participation, people with MS are often insufficiently active to reach health benefits. Promotional efforts that are sustainable within the United States healthcare system are needed. This project is a pilot randomized controlled trial examining the feasibility of a consultative physical therapy intervention for increasing physical activity engagement. Read Less

This study will recruit 260 female recipients (and up to a maximum of 130 donors). This study is a sequel to the protocol CP-DV-000-GEN-003, entitled, "NON-INFERIORITY STUDY COMPARING OVERTURE SEMI-AUTOMATED VITRIFICATION SYSTEM ("DaVitri") TO STANDARD MANUAL PROCESS USING BLASTOCYST RATE AS THE PRIMARY END POINT". Donors will provide informed consent and will be enrolled before egg retrieval. Once the oocytes are retrieved, they will undergo thorough denudation to remove corona cells and will be assessed for maturity. Subsequently, mature MII oocytes exhibiting good morphology, as per the Vienna Consensus, ranging between 12 and 30 in number, will be processed. These oocytes will then be randomly divided into groups comprising 6 to 8 oocytes each. Therefore, from a single donor, 2 to 4 groups can be generated. An identifier will be assigned for each group. One of the groups will be randomly selected. This group will be randomly assigned to DaVitri or Control. The remaining groups will be randomly selected and assigned alternatively to Control and DaVitri groups: Control oocytes will be manually vitrified and placed into cryogenic storage. Test oocytes will be prepared for vitrification using the DaVitri system. Following preparation with DaVitri, test oocytes will be loaded onto a cryogenic device that is placed into cryogenic storage. The same preservation media (Kitazato) will be used to prepare all oocytes. All oocytes will be warmed manually. Survival rate will be recorded following warming. After warming, the oocytes will be fertilized via Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) with either donor or patient's partner sperm and resulting embryos cultured to blastocyst stage, keeping score of which embryos come from the Test or Control group. Fertilization rate will be recorded. Embryos will be morphologically assessed (according to Gardner grading system) on day 5-6 to determine blastulation rates and embryo quality in both groups. All the embryos will be vitrified according to the clinic\'s routine process and stored for further recipients. Recipients will provide informed consent and will be enrolled before the retrieval of donor eggs. Once the donor has been matched with the recipient according to the phenotypic, demographic characteristics (following the regular clinical process established in the clinic donation program), the group of oocytes assigned will be randomly selected from either the DaVitri processed group or the manually processed group. Recipients of donated eggs will receive a single embryo transfer (SET). The primary endpoint is Clinical Pregnancy Rate. Clinical Pregnancy will be confirmed by the presence of sac in uterus and chemical confirmation at 6-7 weeks after embryo transference, via ultrasound. Only the first embryo transfers will be used to calculate the primary endpoint. Successive transfers of any embryo group will not be considered inside the study. Read Less
