Clinical Trial of Approaches to Prostate Cancer Surgery
NCT05155501
Recruiting
This is a prospective, randomized controlled trial to compare cancer control and health-related quality of life following pelvic fascia-sparing radical prostatectomy versus standard radical prostatectomy. The investigators hypothesize that pelvic fascia-sparing radical prostatectomy will have similar cancer control (primary outcome) and sexual function outcomes; and significantly better urinary function, penile shortening/deformity and inguinal hernia risks as compared to radical prostatectomy.

Postextubation Use of Noninvasive Respiratory Support in Severely Obese Patients
NCT05918575
Recruiting
Around 20% of the obese patients with higher body mass index (BMI) who are taken off the breathing tube and breathing machine (ventilator) end up needing it back to support breathing. The re-application of breathing tube is associated with poor outcomes, including high risk of pneumonia, longer hospital stays, and death. The purpose of this study is to assess if prophylactic use of noninvasive breathing support after removing the breathing tube lowers the chance of needing the breathing tube aga... Read More

Technology Enabled Strategies to Promote Treatment Adherence in Liver Transplant
NCT05260268
Recruiting
Liver transplantation is increasingly performed for older adults with multiple comorbidities. Medication adherence is key to maintaining proper function of the transplanted liver and optimize health; however, adhering to post-transplant treatment is complex. This trial will study how available technology combined with transplant center resources and caregiver support can optimize medication adherence, quality of life, and health outcomes among new liver transplant recipients at 3 centers.

A Randomized Crossover Trial of Bright Light Therapy in Crohn's Disease on Intestinal Barrier Homeostasis
NCT05579392
Recruiting
Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC), collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are two of the most significant chronic conditions of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and affects over 1.5 million individuals in the U.S. Recently, there has been an increased understanding of the importance of sleep and sleep disruption in IBD as a potentially modifiable risk factor. We, therefore, hypothesize that intervening with morning bright light therapy (BLT) in IBD patients with C... Read More

Olfactory Cleft Obstruction and Electrophysiological Field Potentials Predict Olfactory Restoration by Dupilumab in CRSwNP Patients.
NCT06892704
Recruiting
The goal of this observational study is to learn what can predict the return of the sense of smell in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps being treated with dupilumab. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does obstruction of the olfactory cleft predict return of the sense of smell? 2. Do electrophysiological signals generated by breathing and sniffing behavior predict return of the sense of smell? Participants starting dupilumab will undergo assessment for their degr... Read More
