The main aim is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TAK-861 on participants with type 1 and type 2 narcolepsy from previous parent studies, TAK-861-2001 (NCT05687903) and TAK-861-2002 (NCT05687916). Read Less

This study will assess the efficacy and safety of dexpramipexole as an adjunctive oral therapy in participants with inadequately controlled asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype and a history of asthma exacerbations. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate dexpramipexole as an add-on oral therapy in participants with inadequately controlled eosinophilic asthma to evaluate improvements in lung function, asthma control, and quality of life. In addition, the study will further evaluate the safety and tolerability of dexpramipexole in participants with eosinophilic asthma. Read Less

Autophagy is considered an important component of Heart failure progression. Deubiquitination enzymes play an important role in autophagy. An important regulatory process within the autophagy pathway is ubiquitination. Ubiquitination targets proteins for degradation. On the contrary, de-ubiquitinating proteins (such as UCHL1) reverses this process. Studies have demonstrated deubiquitination to be linked to certain pathological processes, such as heart failure. UCHL1 will be examined as a potential marker of disease progression in acute decompensated heart failure. Read Less

In this study, the investigators pilot tested a parenting intervention to improve young children's sleep in families with low income. Families were randomized to an intervention or wait-list control group. The investigators hypothesized the intervention would be feasible and acceptable to enrolled families. Read Less

VERIFY will validate biomarkers of upper extremity (UE) motor outcome in the acute ischemic stroke window for immediate use in clinical trials, and explore these biomarkers in acute intracerebral hemorrhage. VERIFY will create the first multicenter, large-scale, prospective dataset of clinical, transmagnetic stimulation (TMS), and MRI measures in the acute stroke time window. Read Less

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Solo+ Tympanostomy Tube Device (Solo+ TTD) for the placement of tympanostomy tubes in paediatric patients undergoing a tympanostomy procedure. Read Less

This study will assess how different types of training and support influence the way that school staff understand, and respond to, the mental and behavioral health needs of middle school students. Researchers will work with middle schools using a developed screening system (called the Early Identification System; EIS) and compare how staff and student outcomes change when schools receive two different types of training and support: 1) standard onboarding/training versus 2) participating in professional learning communities and coaching.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate how the friendship experiences of maltreated (i.e., abused and/or neglected) and non-maltreated adolescents differentially influence their risk for adverse outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: How do the friendships of maltreated adolescents differ from those of non-maltreated adolescents? Which friendship experiences influence the associations between maltreatment and ability to regulate stress, as well as future mental health difficulties and revictimization? Participants will: Attend the initial study visit on the campus of the University of South Carolina with their primary caregiver and a best friend during which they will: Complete study questionnaires Be connected to a device that records their physical ability to manage stress Complete a task during which they will be audio and video recorded and complete a brief assessment rating how they are feeling at different times during task completion Depending on which research group they are placed in, be assigned to discuss their experience doing this task with their friend (intervention group) or sit quietly in a room for 5 minutes (comparison group) The follow-up study visit will involve completion of study questionnaires online or via mail 6 months later Additionally, the participant's caregiver and friend will complete study questionnaires. Researchers will compare the intervention group (debriefs with a friend) and comparison group (sits quietly for 5 minutes) to see if the presence of and discussion with the friend influences their physical ability to regulate stress and future outcomes.
