ReadMap: Reading in Stroke Alexia and Typical Aging
Recruiting
Loss of reading ability due to stroke, called alexia, likely affects over a million Americans at any given time and causes difficulty performing many daily life functions, such as paying bills, using email/text, reading for pleasure, and reading signs in the community. Understanding the brain and cognitive basis of alexia could improve diagnosis and treatment of this important problem. In this study, the investigators will perform a large-scale behavioral and brain imaging study of stroke surviv... Read More

Intravesical Lactobacillus for Urinary Symptoms Among People with NLUTD Who Use Indwelling Catheters
Recruiting
The objectives of the proposed research among this population are: 1) to define clinically meaningful change (i.e. differentiating states of health and illness) with respect to urinary symptoms, urine inflammation, cultivable bacteria, and the urine ecosystem; and 2) to determine the optimal intravesical Lactobacillus RhamnosusGG (LGG®) dose to be used to reduce urinary symptoms in a future clinical trial.

Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative 3 (ADNI3)
Recruiting
Since its launch in 2004, the overarching aim of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) has been realized in informing the design of therapeutic trials in AD. ADNI3 continues the previously funded ADNI-1, ADNI-GO, and ADNI-2 studies that have been combined public/private collaborations between academia and industry to determine the relationships between the clinical, cognitive, imaging, genetic and biochemical biomarker characteristics of the entire spectrum of Alzheimer's diseas...

Focused Ultrasound for the Complex Patient
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to to inhibit the anterior insula (AI) with low intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) to determine the causal role for the AI in pain processing, anxiety, and opiate cue-induced craving. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * the safety and tolerability of LIFU delivered bilaterally to AI compared to sham stimulation in individuals with opiate use disorder (OUD), anxiety, and chronic back pain * the effects of LIFU vs sham on measures of pain processing...

Low Intensity Focused Ultrasound for Tobacco Use Disorder: High Resolution Targeting of the Human Insula
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to to inhibit the dorsal anterior insula (dAI) with low intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) to determine the causal role for the dAI in smoking cue induced craving in individuals with tobacco use disorder (TUD); smoking cue induced craving is a clinically important behavior which has been associated with the severity of nicotine addiction. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * the safety and tolerability of dAI LIFU compared to sham stimulation in in... Read More

Combining a Smartphone App With Medications to Manage Heavy Drinking
Recruiting
One in 10 Veterans have an alcohol use disorder. However, few Veterans receive evidenced-based psychosocial interventions or medications to treat alcohol use disorder. Barriers to receiving these treatments include long wait times, stigma, and long distances from treatment facilities. Even fewer Veterans receive psychosocial and medication interventions together, despite clinical practice guidelines recommending both and evidence of better outcomes. Expanding access to these treatments in primar... Read More

Evaluating Safety and Efficacy of Prostate-sparing Radical Cystectomy
Recruiting
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if prostate-capsule-sparing cystectomy improves functional outcomes without comprising oncologic outcomes in male patients receiving a radical cystectomy. Patients will be randomized to one of two groups: prostate capsule-sparing radical cystectomy or nerve-sparing radical cystectomy. Patients will be monitored following standard of care guidelines and clinical data will be collected. Patients in both groups will be asked to complete an erectile... Read More
