This prospective study will investigate the effect of pre-operative Systane iLux system administration in treated cataract induced dry eye disease. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility and utility of SIT delivered asynchronously (self-paced) via fully virtual platform with and without the aid of a mobile health application and to determine initial change over baseline in terms of reduction in PTSD symptoms and improvement in resiliency in participants receiving the virtual SIT prototype, using Linear Mixed Models (LMMs), Read Less

This study aims to investigate the effect of two different physical exercise interventions on the brain, cognition and patient reported outcomes following a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in community-dwelling adults. Physical exercise as an intervention for mTBI has great potential yet there is limited high-quality evidence of its effect. Additionally, while standardized exercise protocols for sport-related concussion exist, a similar program is not available to members of the general public who have suffered a mTBI. This study therefore aims to test the effect of a 3-month exercise protocol either focusing on balance or aerobic exercises. The results from the study may lead to advances in evidenced-based mTBI management and provide clinicians with an effective intervention that can improve brain and cognitive recovery after mTBI.

This study hypothesizes that a reduced intensity immunosuppressive preparative regimen will establish engraftment of donor hematopoietic cells with acceptable early and delayed toxicity in patients with immune function disorders. A regimen that maximizes host immune suppression is expected to reduce graft rejection and optimize donor cell engraftment. Read Less

The purpose of this case series dismantling study is to extend previous findings regarding the efficacy of a brief treatment for chronic post-trauma nightmares by examining the dose effect and mechanism of change. Exposure, relaxation, and rescripting therapy (ERRT) is a promising psychological intervention developed to target trauma-related nightmares and sleep disturbances. ERRT has exhibited strong support in reducing the frequency and intensity of nightmares, as well as improving overall sleep quality in both civilian and veteran samples. In addition, significant decreases in PTSD and depression symptoms have been reported following treatment (Davis et al., 2011; Davis \& Wright, 2007; Long et al., 2011; Swanson, Favorite, Horin, \& Arnedt, 2009). ERRT is currently an evidence-level B suggested treatment (Cranston, Davis, Rhudy, \& Favorite, 2011). Despite this evidence, the mechanism of change for ERRT remains unclear. We propose to conduct a set of case series in order to examine the possible mechanisms: psycho-education, dose response for exposure, and no exposure components of the treatment. Each part of the treatment is theorized to contribute to the improved treatment outcome and it is hypothesized that participants will benefit no matter what group they are in. All participants will receive 5 to 6 treatment sessions, conducted once per week for about 90 minutes, of a modified version of ERRT. Read Less

Exposure, relaxation, and rescripting therapy (ERRT) is a promising psychological intervention developed to target trauma-related nightmares and sleep disturbances. Though further evidence is needed, ERRT has shown strong support in reducing the number and intensity of nightmares, as well as improving overall sleep quality in both civilian and veteran samples. This study will assess the efficacy in individuals diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Read Less

The investigators will pilot test (N=100 caregivers of children ages 3-4 years) the effects of a caregiver supervision intervention on caregivers' supervision and children's injury frequency using a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) design. The control group will receive Services as Usual (SAU), and the treatment group will receive SAU+ SHS. The results will be used to support an R01 application to conduct a larger-scale RCT test of the program. Read Less

In this study, we will conduct retrospective chart and imaging reviews and prospective longitudinal virtual assessments of individuals with LBSL. Read Less

This protocol describes a prospective cohort study. It addresses an important challenge in the prevention of colorectal cancer and duodenal cancer: how to safely and effectively remove large polyps. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to identify the impact of estradiol (E2) on the mechanisms that regulate vascular endothelial function in peri-menopausal (PERI) women. This study is the first step in understanding factors contributing to endothelial dysfunction in women with advancing reproductive age and in response to E2 administration. Read Less
