The COCOA-PAD II Trial
Recruiting
Among people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) age 55 and older, the investigators will test the hypothesis that PAD participants randomized to cocoa flavanols will have greater improvement or less decline in six-minute walk distance at six-month follow-up, compared to those randomized to placebo. The study will randomize 190 participants with PAD age 55 and older to one of two groups for six months: cocoa flavanols vs placebo. Our primary outcome is change in six-minute walk distance at six-... Read More

Analysis of Human ALS Tissues and Registry of ALS Patients
Recruiting
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as Lou Gehrig's Disease, is a progressive, terminal condition of muscle weakness that is associated with degeneration of neurons in the spinal cord and brain. This devastating disorder afflicts people in the prime of their lives. At the present time, there are no cures for this disorder, and current treatments are marginal at best. Despite years of intensive research, a fundamental understanding of this disease is still lacking. There is a n... Read More
