taVNS for FRNS in Children
NCT05588063
Recruiting
Children with frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome (FRNS) are exposed to prolonged courses of steroids and other immunosuppressant medications. Given the adverse side effect profiles and variable efficacy of these medications, there is an urgent need to identify novel and safe therapies to treat nephrotic syndrome in children. Stimulation of the vagus nerve, which can be activated non invasively by transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS), has immunomodulatory effects mediated... Read More

Genomic Risk in Retroperitoneal Sarcoma
NCT06436846
Recruiting
The protocol intends to explore the biology which may underlie recurrences of retroperitoneal liposarcoma. Surgery remains the only curative intent intervention for this disease. Often, tumors recur in locations within the retroperitoneum remote from the original primary tumor. This study hypothesizes that normal appearing retroperitoneal fat actually harbors underlying genetic changes which predispose to development of future liposarcoma. To accomplish this goal, retroperitoneal fat is sampled... Read More

Treatment Of Atrial Fibrillation In Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure
NCT04160000
Recruiting
Heart failure (HF) with preserved left ventricular function (pEF) is difficult clinical syndrome to treat effectively with few evidence based therapies. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is now an important co-morbidity being observed in 43% of patients with HFpEF. Rhythm control has not been studied in this population. Catheter ablation and antiarrhythmic drugs are rhythm control therapies that have been used for treatment of AF without HF or HF with reduced systolic function but have not been widely ap...

Clinical Data Registry of Amblyopia Patients on Luminopia Treatment
NCT06429280
Recruiting
Amblyopia is the most prevalent cause of reduced monocular visual acuity in children and young adults, with estimates of prevalence ranging from 1% to 5%. The most common associated amblyogenic risk factors are uncorrected anisometropia, strabismus, or a combination of these. In addition to reduced visual acuity, amblyopic patients may also have measurable dysfunction of accommodation, fixation, binocularity, vergence, reading fluency, depth perception, and contrast sensitivity. For the first t... Read More
