Diabetes Clinical Trials in Pensacola, FL

This phase II trial studies how well lower dose radiotherapy after chemotherapy (Carboplatin \& Etoposide) works in treating children with central nervous system (CNS) germinomas. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. Researchers want to see if lowering the dose of standard radiotherapy (RT) after chemotherapy can help get rid of CNS germinomas with fewer long-term side effects. Read Less

This study aims to collect data to improve gait function in individuals with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN). The primary goals are to evaluate: * Biomechanical mechanisms contributing to abnormal plantar pressure and propulsion during gait in individuals with DPN * Biofeedback-induced changes in plantar pressure, propulsion, and biomechanics during gait in individuals with DPN The participants will be required to complete * Questionnaires * Clinical examination * 3-Dimensional gait analysis on an instrumented treadmill * Visual and auditory biofeedback on the participant's propulsion and plantar pressure metrics provided by a projector screen during walking Read Less

TRANSFORM is a prospective, randomized, open blinded endpoint (PROBE), event-driven, pragmatic trial in patients who are at increased risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular (CV) disease but with no known symptomatic CV disease. The trial tests the hypothesis that a Cleerly Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) Staging System-based care strategy reduces CV events compared with risk factor-based care. Read Less
