The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate postoperative pain. Secondary outcomes evaluated in this study will include range of motion (ROM), opioid consumption, and ambulation. Each outcome measure will be evaluated, oral tranexamic acid (TXA) in the experiment arm and placebo in the control arm, after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) at postoperative days 0-3, and weeks 1, 2, 6, and 12.

The purpose of this research study is to investigate the impact of virtual reality experiences on individuals undergoing radiotherapy, aiming to assess whether this immersive technology can reduce anxiety and enhance patient overall treatment satisfaction. By comparing different virtual reality techniques and a standard informational video, the study seeks to identify optimal strategies for leveraging virtual reality to improve the patient experience during radiotherapy.

The current standard of care (SOC) (i.e. fentanyl and midazolam) offers limited efficacy for preventing or relieving pain. Ketamine infusions may provide the benefits of analgesia, minimize adverse events, and reduce opioid use. The purpose of this study is to determine if adding a low dose ketamine infusion during wound care will safely provide pain relief for patients with burn injury. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine how well the study drug XL092 is helping to treat a participant's cancer after 16 weeks of treatment. Researchers will also look at how safe the XL092 is and how well the XL092 is working. XL092 is an oral tablet that will be taken once a day. Participants will return to clinic for regular visits for checkups and tests. Read Less

Individuals with tic disorders have lower quality of life, sensory and movement difficulties, and poorer mental, social, and physical health compared to the general population. Current clinical care for individuals with tic disorders is limited: no interventions are proven to prevent or stop the disorder exist, and most treatments focus solely on tics, though other symptoms often affect quality of life more than tics. To develop new treatments and improve care for people with tics, researchers need to better understand the different symptoms people experience and how the brain causes these symptoms. Many individuals with tic disorders have sensory and movement symptoms other than tics. A common sensory symptom is increased sensitivity to common sensations, such as glare from sunlight, tags in shirt collars, and noises from passing cars. A common movement symptom is poor handwriting and/or poor coordination. In one study of adolescents with tic disorder, difficulty with hand coordination predicted tic severity 7.5 years later, suggesting that sensory and/or motor difficulties may be a risk factor for more severe tics later in life. Despite how common they are, much is unknown about sensory and motor difficulties experienced by people with tic disorders. Additionally, most studies of people with tics enroll younger children. As a result, little is known about sensory, motor, and psychosocial development in adolescents with tics. Knowledge of sensory and motor difficulties in adolescents with tics is important to understand because, in other adolescent populations, such difficulties are associated with worse mental and social health and worse quality of life. Deepening insight into the sensory, motor, and psychosocial development of adolescents with tic disorders is crucial to identify causes and risk factors for poor health in this population. The goals of this study are to measure sensory and motor symptoms and function in adolescents with tics and to compare them to adolescents without tics. The research team will enroll adolescents with tics and adolescents without tics to participate in the study. Adolescent participants will complete questionnaires, electroencephalogram (EEG) tasks, and other sensory and motor tasks at baseline (with 2 study visits occurring within 30 days of each other) and 2 years later (again, with 2 study visits, occurring within 30 days of each other). A parent or other adult who knows the adolescent well will also complete questionnaires as part of the study. Read Less

The purpose of this Phase II clinical trial is to establish the safety and effectiveness of trametinib, a targeted therapy, for the treatment of newly or recently diagnosed Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) among pediatric patients. Read Less

This study examines the impact of a multi-level intervention aiming to improve telehealth access for low-income patients managing chronic health conditions, such as hypertension and diabetes. The multi-level intervention includes clinic-level practice facilitation and patient-level digital health coaching. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of once-daily Sodium butyrate (NaBu) on menstrual symptoms in women. The investigators posit that the use of NaBu will reduce menstrual symptoms after taking NaBu for 12 weeks. Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to validate a pre-defined IL-6 concentration cutoff that predicts 28-day mortality in patients who are admitted or are intended to be admitted to the ICU diagnosed with sepsis or septic shock. Read Less

This randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy of Diaberine, a berberine-based nutraceutical, in aiding blood sugar regulation and metabolism in 80 participants over 24 weeks. Read Less

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effectiveness of non-invasive brain stimulation in treating adults with amblyopia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are the effects of non-invasive brain stimulation on neuronal plasticity in the visual cortex of adults with amblyopia, and does it produce lasting changes? 2. Do cumulative sessions of non-invasive brain stimulation influence neural plasticity and higher-order visual functions in adults with amblyopia? The investigators hypothesize that non-invasive brain stimulation will show a positive cumulative effect after five (5) consecutive days of stimulation on visual perception and function in adults with amblyopia. Participants will be randomized into one of two treatment groups: 1. High-frequency transcranial random noise stimulation (hf-tRNS). 2. Sham stimulation. Researchers will compare baseline measurements of crowded visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, stereoacuity, phosphene thresholds, global motion perception, form pattern recognition and pattern-reversal visual evoked potentials (VEPs) to post-treatment measurements for each group.

The purpose of this study is to compare two different bone graft materials (freeze-dried bone allograft, FDBA and collagen-enriched bovine xenograft, CEBX) that are routinely used for preserving the remaining bone after extraction of an anterior tooth, and before placing a dental implant. Patients will be randomly assigned to either group (flip of a coin) One group will receive FDBA material and the other group will receive CEBX (cow) material. The study aims to examine the following main questions: * Potential differences in linear radiographic horizontal (HRD) and vertical (VRD) ridge dimensional changes between groups after 16 weeks of healing * Other clinical information of the treated areas and information regarding the esthetics of the dental implant that will subsequently be placed at the edentulous site as well as patient satisfaction with the treatment, will be evaluated. The study will include 7 study visits. Study procedures will take place during the same visits as the standard of care treatments (tooth extraction and bone graft, dental implant placement, crown installation and follow-ups). Clinical information from these standard of care visits will be used for the current research study, such as: * Demographic information * Clinical information from intraoral photographs * Radiographic information from cone beam computed tomography and periapical radiographs.
