A prospective, non-blinded, randomized controlled trial studying the management of symptomatic ureteral stones. This study will compare upfront ureteroscopy vs observation and delayed intervention for patients presenting to the emergency department with a symptomatic ureteral stone. Read Less

The main goal of this study is to see if group pelvic floor training before surgery can help prevent urinary incontinence after Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) surgery. The study has the potential to inform preoperative intervention strategies for managing incontinence after HoLEP. Read Less

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the potential benefits of two Intervention programs in adults with TBI to improve well-being and other outcomes that are maintained over time. Read Less

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a safe, practical (feasible), and effective treatment for people with chronic TAWP. The researchers will test different doses of SRS to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects. Read Less

This is a Phase 1 study investigating the safety and efficacy of Danvatirsen as a monotherapy followed by combination with Venetoclax in patients with relapsed/refractory myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Funding Source: FDA OOPD Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to determine if stretching exercises as a conservative treatment option will correct kyphosis in postural and Scheuermann's kyphosis. Read Less

The opioid overdose epidemic has persisted for several decades and is now further complicated by the permeation of fentanyl into the illicit opioid supply. While the effectiveness of medications to treat opioid use disorder (MOUD) have been well documented in the literature, the addition of fentanyl to the drug supply has complicated the initiation of MOUD, especially buprenorphine. Naloxone, an opioid antagonist, is currently utilized to reverse opioid overdose by displacing less-competitive ligands which bind at the mu-opioid receptor. Because induction to buprenorphine in the age of fentanyl is uncomfortable and can take several days to stabilize a patient on a therapeutic dose, the use of naloxone prior to buprenorphine can aid in a safe and rapid transition to buprenorphine treatment, without the effect of unintended prolonged precipitated withdrawal which can occur following the displacement of fentanyl by buprenorphine on the mu-opioid receptor. Therefore, this project will assess feasibility and acceptability of naloxone-facilitated buprenorphine initiation using a single-ascending dose design. The investigators will examine whether a single dose of buprenorphine is tolerated following administration of naloxone among a small group of individuals. If the dose is tolerated, the investigators will administer a larger dose among another small group of individuals. The investigators will examine the tolerability of up to 4 doses of buprenorphine following naloxone. This buprenorphine induction method has been characterized in case studies but it has not been evaluated in an empirical, systematic way in a controlled setting. This study will take place within an residential facility at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Campus, and will have immediate, real-world applicability in establishing a rapid, safe, and effective option to transition people with chronic fentanyl use to buprenorphine treatment.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if sotagliflozin, a dual SGLT1 and SGLT2 inhibitor, works to treat symptomatic, nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (noHCM) in adult patients. It will also learn about the safety of sotagliflozin in this patient population. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Will sotagliflozin be well tolerated in patients with nonobstructive HCM? 2. Will sotaglifozin improve exercise capacity, diastolic dysfunction and/or physical functioning in patients with nonobstructive HCM? 3. Will sotagliflozin improve circulating markers of cardiac metabolism in patients with nonobstructive HCM? Researchers will compare sotagliflozin to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if sotagliflozin is effective at treating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Participants will: Take sotagliflozin or a placebo every day for 12 weeks. They will then cross-over (or switch) to taking placebo or sotagliflozin (whichever one they did not take initially) for an additional 12 weeks. Visit the clinic once every 4-12 weeks for checkups, surveys, and tests including a stress test and echocardiogram. Read Less

Neurovascular signaling in the skin associated with stimulation of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. These channels are stimulated by both temperature and naturally occurring bioactive agents found in mint, chili peppers, garlic, etc. The aim of the study is to examine how topically applied TRP channel agonists including menthol, capsaicin and camphor impact neurovascular responses in the skin.

The focus of this pilot will be on falls and neurocognitive symptoms, and the impact of alcohol, cannabis use, and medications on these outcomes. The rationale is that alcohol use at any level may interact with neurocognitively active medications, alcohol, and cannabis use leading to falls and impaired cognition. Read Less

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose-ranging study to assess the safety and efficacy of tenapanor for treatment of the IBS-C in pediatric patients 6 to less than 12 year old. Read Less

Investigators hope to learn about potential dietary intervention strategies (specifically a whole-food, plant-based diet) that may help lower cancer markers in firefighters. Read Less
