Can PLIA Reduce Early Post-operative Pain After PAO Surgery?
NCT06519955
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare different peri-incisional local infiltrative anesthesia (PLIA) methods in patients ages 13 to 50 undergoing a periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). The main questions to answer here are: 1. Does PLIA impact post-operative pain after PAO? 2. Does PLIA impact pain medication usage as measured by morphine equivalent dosing (MED) after PAO? 3. Does the timing of PLIA administration impact post-operative pain and MED after PAO? Participants will be asked to co... Read More

Patient-driven Management of BP in CKD
NCT05546099
Recruiting
The proposed research will evaluate if patients managing their blood pressure medications under the guidance of a clinical pharmacist works better to lower blood pressure than patients monitoring their blood pressure at home and the standard care. 60 Veterans with chronic kidney disease (CKD) will be included in the study. The study will further evaluate factors that may influence the Veteran to accept the self-management approach and what factors in the VHA healthcare system affect the implemen... Read More

Role of Inflammation in Vascular Phenotype Associated with E-cigarette Use
NCT06489249
Recruiting
The use of electronic nicotine delivery systems, or e-cigarettes - colloquially referred to as "vaping" - in the United States has increased exponentially since their introduction to the US market in 2007. Prevalence of ever and current e-cigarette use is highest among teenagers and young adults with 16-28% of this population having reported vaping. While the majority of e-cigarette users are current tobacco smokers, 32.5% of current e-cigarette users are never- or former-smokers, representing a... Read More

Determinants of Incident Stroke Cognitive Outcomes and Vascular Effects on RecoverY
NCT04916210
Recruiting
The overall goal of the DISCOVERY study is to better understand what factors contribute to changes in cognitive (i.e., thinking and memory) abilities in patients who experienced a stroke. The purpose of the study is to help doctors identify patients at risk for dementia (decline in memory, thinking and other mental abilities that significantly affects daily functioning) after their stroke so that future treatments may be developed to improve outcomes in stroke patients. For this study, a "stroke... Read More

Role of ET-1, Physical Activity, and Sedentary Behavior in Microvascular Dysfunction Following GDM
NCT06547619
Recruiting
Women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at a 2-fold greater risk for the development of overt cardiovascular disease (CVD) following the effected pregnancy. While subsequent development of type II diabetes elevates this risk, prior GDM is an independent risk factor for CVD morbidity, particularly, within the first decade postpartum. GDM is associated with impaired endothelial function during pregnancy and decrements in macro- and microvascular function persist postpartum,... Read More

Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of OBT076 in Recurrent/Metastatic CD205+ Solid Tumors
NCT04064359
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to evaluate OBT076, which is a drug that combines an antibody with an anti-cancer drug. This class of drugs are called Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADC). Antibodies are normally produced in the human body by the immune system to fight infections but can be designed to target cancer cells and deliver an anti-cancer drug. OBT076 is composed of an antibody that targets the CD205 protein on cancer cells and delivers an anti-cancer drug which can kill them. OBT076 is an "Inv... Read More

Child to Adult Neurodevelopment in Gene Expanded Huntington's Disease
NCT01860339
Recruiting
Huntington's Disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant disease manifested in a triad of cognitive, psychiatric, and motor signs and symptoms. HD is caused by a triplet repeat (CAG)expansion in the gene Huntingtin (HTT). This disease has classically been conceptualized as a neurodegenerative disease. However, recent evidence suggests that abnormal brain development may play an important role in the etiology of HD. Huntingtin (HTT)is expressed during development and through life. In animal studies, th... Read More
