Connectomic Guided DBS for Parkinson's Disease
NCT06618157
Recruiting
The objective of this research is to use advanced connectomic imaging models to identify disease-relevant axonal pathway targets for better tremor control in Parkinson's disease patients while avoiding undesirable side effects, with the goal of increasing precision and facilitating the choice of optimal DBS parameters for certain disease phenotypes. The investigators hypothesize that patient centered subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation of cerebellothalamic axonal pathways and pallidothala... Read More

Observation of Environment and Reproductive-Endocrine Effects
NCT06280807
Recruiting
Background: Endocrine disorders occur when the glands that make hormones do not work properly. Hormones levels that are too high or too low can cause problems such as late or early puberty, irregular periods, and infertility. Environmental factors - including pollution; chemical exposure at home and work; foods; medicines; and sleep habits - may cause problems with the endocrine and reproductive systems. Objective: To learn how environmental factors may affect the endocrine and reproductive s... Read More

HIP: Hip Imaging Protocol
NCT04126161
Recruiting
Objective measures of skeletal muscle features have previously been used to assess skeletal muscle quality. In certain clinical populations, such as intensive care (ICU) patients, specific features of the psoas muscle measured by abdominal CT have been used to assess the nutritional status of the patient. Abdominal CT is not performed routinely as it exposes the patient to ionizing radiation (X-rays) and can only be performed intermittently. The measurement of the thigh muscles (rectus femoris...

A Study of CHeckpoint Inhibitors in Men With prOgressive Metastatic Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer Characterized by a Mismatch Repair Deficiency or Biallelic CDK12 Inactivation
NCT04104893
Recruiting
The primary objective is to assess the activity and efficacy of pembrolizumab, a checkpoint inhibitor, in Veterans with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) characterized by either mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) or biallelic inactivation of CDK12 (CDK12-/-). The secondary objectives involve determining the frequency with which dMMR and CDK12-/- occur in this patient population, as well as the effects of pembrolizumab on various clinical endpoints (time to PSA progression, m...

Tranexamic Acid to Reduce Blood Loss in Spine Surgery
NCT02314988
Recruiting
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of topical tranexamic acid to reduce perioperative blood loss, reduction in postoperative drain output and allogenic transfusion requirements. The proposed study will be a prospective, randomized, double-blind (subject, surgeons, investigators, research coordinators) placebo-controlled study. Patients requiring posterior spinal fusion will be enrolled for this study. Furthermore, patients undergoing elective complex deformity surgery will also be... Read More

Drug-Induced Liver Injury (DILI) Network Retrospective
NCT00360646
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to establish retrospectively a nationwide registry of patients who have suffered drug-induced liver injury (DILI), and to collect, immortalize, and store serum, DNA, and lymphocytes from these patients. ILIAD will serve as a resource for subsequent mechanistic investigations into the basis of severe idiosyncratic DILI. The primary goal of the ILIAD protocol is to create: (a) a clinical database consisting of individuals who have experienced severe DILI and the releva... Read More
