The PREDICTOR Study: Assessing Diagnostic Predictors of Airway Collapse in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea
NCT05428839
Recruiting
This study is an exploratory, multicenter study of up to 300 subjects diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea who are being evaluated for airway surgery. Subjects will undergo standard evaluation for airway surgery as part of standard of care. In addition to the standard airway assessment, a simple, non-invasive measurement of the width of the inside of each subjects mouth will be performed. This measurement takes 2-3 minutes to perform.

The Role of Flavor in the Substitutability of E-cigarettes for Combustible Cigarettes Among Persistent Smokers
NCT06264154
Recruiting
This between-subjects study aims to evaluate the effect of flavor on initial and sustained switching from combustible cigarettes to e-cigarettes among 210 cigarette smokers. After measuring baseline cigarette smoking rate, participants will be randomized to a six-week regimen of fruit-flavored, tobacco-flavored, or menthol-flavored e-cigarettes and be instructed to switch (versus smoking cigarettes) over a 6-week period. Flavor-associated subjective reward and the reinforcing value of flavored e... Read More

Integrating Telehealth to Advance Lung Cancer Screening
NCT06638554
Recruiting
The goal of this pragmatic trial is to learn if telehealth strategies can increase shared decision-making (SDM) for lung cancer screening (LCS). It will also learn about the equity of these strategies by conducting non-inferiority analysis by race and sex. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does patient outreach using synchronous and asynchronous telehealth strategies increase completion of SDM visits for LCS? 2. Is the effectiveness of these telehealth strategies similar by race and...

Mono vs. Dual Therapy for Pediatric Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
NCT04039464
Recruiting
The investigators' central hypothesis is that early combination therapy with two PAH-specific oral therapies that have been shown to be well tolerated in the pediatric population, sildenafil and bosentan, will result in better World Health Organization (WHO) functional class at 12 months after initiation of PAH treatment than therapy with sildenafil alone.

Natural History Study of Infantile and Juvenile GM1 Gangliosidosis (GM1) Patients
NCT04041102
Recruiting
Owing to the rarity, severity, speed of progression and fatal prognosis of infantile and juvenile GM1, there is a limited understanding of overall disease progression and meaningful outcome measures. This study aims to build a natural history data set through collection of a number of clinical, imaging, and laboratory assessments that may be specific predictors of GM1 disease progression and clinical outcome. Having a GM1 natural history data set can inform potential efficacy endpoints and bioma... Read More

How Hormones and Exposure and Response Prevention (EX/RP) Affect the Brain of People With OCD
NCT05359562
Recruiting
Studies show that hormones affect the brain's fear extinction network, which is relevant for therapy involving exposure and response prevention (EX/RP), a first-line treatment for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). This study will examine the effect of delivering EX/RP to women during different phases in their menstrual cycle to determine the effects of hormones on the fear extinction network and on their OCD symptoms.

Imaging Retinal Vasculature in Infant Eyes
NCT05558059
Recruiting
Retinopathy of prematurity is a leading cause of childhood blindness worldwide. The fovea, a critical location in the retina determining visual acuity and visual function, and the blood vessels around it, are abnormally developed in infants with retinopathy of prematurity. However, how these blood vessels form during development of the human fovea remains unclear. This research will advance our understanding of the fundamental knowledge of how the blood vessels around the fovea form in infants,... Read More
