This PMCF study evaluates the safety and performance of OrthoPulse photobiomodulation to accelerate tooth movement during alignment with fixed appliances. Read Less

This is a randomized pilot study to test the feasibility and acceptability of a tool to promote discussion about conservative kidney management (CKM) among older patients with advanced CKD and their providers. Read Less

This is a prospective, randomized study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of post-surgical pain control of a type of peripheral nerve block, Rectus Sheath Block. 1. Does the rectus sheath block decrease opioid consumption postoperatively after cardiac surgery? 2. Does the rectus sheath block decrease VAS pain scores postoperatively after cardiac surgery? Study participants will be assigned to receive either rectus sheath block or no block. Read Less

Although multiple treatments for OCD exist, slow symptom decrease, high remission, and significant side effects for some OCD patients limit their efficacy. More research into the precise neural mechanisms and linked cognitive functions in OCD is also necessary. To address both concerns, this study by Dr. Reinhart and his team will test a new, non-invasive, and well-tolerated neuromodulation method for reducing OCD symptoms, based on reward-related rhythms of the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC; a brain region responsible for reward, decision making and other crucial functions that is affected by OCD). This proposal is based on highly encouraging preliminary data in both subsyndromal and treatment-resistant populations that shows rapid reductions in OCD behaviors that last at least 1-3 months. Using high-definition transcranial alternating current stimulation (HD-tACS) guided by EEG brain wave recordings, the study will test whether repetitive modulation of relevant rhythm activity in the OFC can lead to rapid (within five days) and sustainable (up to three months) OCD symptom reduction. This research aims to increase knowledge of OCD and development of effective treatment with minimal side effects. Read Less

This phase II trial test tests how well repurposing atovaquone works in treating patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. Atovaquone is used for the treatment or prevention of certain infections. Atovaquone is in a class of medications called antiprotozoal agents. It works by stopping the growth of certain types of protozoa that can cause pneumonia. Giving atovaquone may be effective in treating platinum-resistant ovarian cancer and result in improved outcomes compared to standard chemotherapy regimens. Read Less

The goal of this experimental study is to improve our understanding of the effects of stress on the decision to consume (more) alcohol in regular drinkers. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does psychological stress affect the decision to consume (more) alcohol? * How does psychological stress affect the decision to consume (more) alcohol? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four conditions (stress alcohol, stress no alcohol, no stress alcohol, no stress no alcohol) and complete a value-based decision-making task twice (once before and once after the manipulations).

The goal of this clinical trial is to show non-inferiority of the MIMS® device/procedure with Mitomycin-C, in terms of its surgical success rate, compared to trabeculectomy with Mitomycin-C in subjects diagnosed with primary open angle glaucoma, whose intraocular pressure is not controlled despite polypharmacy. Eligible screened participants will undergo the MIMS® procedure and will be followed for a period of 12 months in this single-arm study. Investigators will compare the results of this study to the surgical success rate of traditional trabeculectomy with Mitomycin-C. Read Less

Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 1) supplementation with Synbiotic (Plexus® Triplex), 2) commercially-available Probiotic, or 3) placebo control over 30 days on the gut microbiome, cardiometabolic health, body weight and body composition in healthy individuals.

This is a multicenter, long-term, follow-up trial of participants with Gaucher disease type 1 who received FLT201 treatment in a preceding clinical trial. Participants will be followed for 5 years post-treatment. Read Less

The goal of this study is to investigate the prevalence of dysglycemia with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) obtained during pulmonary exacerbations, both outpatient and inpatient, in youth with cystic fibrosis (CF). Read Less

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is often caused by cigarette smoking, but genetic predisposition also influences COPD susceptibility. The purpose of this study is to identify genetic factors that predispose some individuals to develop COPD. Read Less

The purpose of the research study entitled "Efficacy of Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) and Phototherapy for Patients with Chronic Lower Back Pain" is to investigate the hypothesis that combined treatment with both osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) and phototherapy will provide greater pain relief for patients with chronic lower back pain, as compared with standard medical management or either treatment alone.
