Diabetes RElated to Acute Pancreatitis and Its Mechanisms: Metabolic Outcomes Using Novel CGM Metrics
Recruiting
The DREAM-ON study will investigate whether continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is useful to predict risk for developing diabetes mellitus (DM) and pre-diabetes mellitus (PDM), the need for insulin therapy among those who develop DM, and to determine whether CGM can provide insight into the pathophysiology and DM subtype among participants who have experienced an episode of acute pancreatitis (AP). Thus, the results of the DREAM-ON study could inform future clinical practice guidelines for the m... Read More

Transrectal Ultrasound Robot-Assisted Prostate Biopsy
Recruiting
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common non-dermatologic malignancy in U.S. men. Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy is a commonly used diagnostic procedure for men with an elevated serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level and/or abnormal digital rectal examination (DRE). It is estimated that more than 1 million TRUS-guided prostate biopsies are performed annually in the U.S. alone. However, a freehand TRUS-guided systematic biopsy (SB) procedure has significant limitations.... Read More
