This is a survey-based study using an online panel. The goal of the study is to understand whether information about overdiagnosis influences breast cancer screening intention among older women. Participants are first asked a series of questions about breast cancer screening including their intention to continue screening, knowledge of screening, and beliefs about screening. They are then shown one of three videos about breast cancer screening that contain information about overdiagnosis or a fourth control video that is identical but contains no information about overdiagnosis. Participants are then again asked about screening intention, along with knowledge of screening, overdiagnosis, and questions around trust. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to perform a pivotal trial of iPredict, an automated AI-based system for early diagnosis and prediction of late AMD in primary care and ophthalmology settings. Patients will be invited to participate in this study by having non-dilated photos of their eyes taken by an FDA approved fundus camera (DRSPlus from Centervue Inc., CA), at their primary care doctor's office or general ophthalmologist office. The photos will then be transmitted securely and analyzed by computer in the cloud (telemedicine features). Sufficient accuracy of the automatic system has been established compared to the ophthalmologist's diagnosis. In this study, we aim to validate the system against the prospectively taken OCT image and color fundus images. Read Less

This is a first-in-human, single-arm, open-label study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of ALLO-329 in adults with autoimmune diseases: systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with and without renal involvement, idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM), and systemic sclerosis (SSc).The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ALLO-329, an allogeneic anti-CD19, anti-CD70 dual chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, in adults with autoimmune disorders, provide initial evidence of biological activity and clinical response to the treatment and determine the recommended Phase 2 regimen (RP2R).

A Phase 3, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of paltusotine treatment vs placebo as well as the long-term safety of paltusotine in adults with carcinoid syndrome due to well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors. The purpose of this study is to continue the evaluation of the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of paltusotine in participants with carcinoid syndrome. Read Less

The purpose of the research is to evaluate the digital wellness nurse (DWN) app to find out if it is helpful in delivering the FIT Families intervention. The study is sponsored by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Read Less

This study is a pharmacoepidemiologic method study based on the secondary use of pre-existing data that examines whether TriNetX, a global health research network encompassing a worldwide electronic health record (EHR), database in the US is an appropriate real-world data (RWD) source for conducting chlamydia-related research to support the chlamydia trachomatis (CT) messenger Ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine program. There are two primary objectives for this study: 1. To determine the validity of ICD, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) diagnostic codes to identify patients with chlamydial infections using TriNetX EHR data in the US 2. To describe screening or diagnostic testing and treatment patterns in patients with chlamydia using TriNetX EHR data in the US There are also two secondary objectives for this study: 1. To explore the feasibility of developing a modified algorithm for identifying patients with chlamydia applicable for Merative MarketScan Commercial Claims and Encounters (CCAE) database based on the findings from the primary objectives 2. To compare patient characteristics, use of screening or diagnostic testing, and treatment patterns among patients with chlamydia between TriNetX EHR data and the MarketScan CCAE data in the US Read Less

This is a single-site randomized controlled pilot study at Mount Sinai Hospital evaluating the effect of virtual reality on procedural pain and anxiety in obstetric patients undergoing ultrasound-guided needle procedures. Patients will be randomized to receive either VR or standard care during the procedure and complete validated questionnaires assessing pain, anxiety, intervention acceptability, and satisfaction.

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effects of a novel task-specific balance training for reducing environmental falls in community ambulatory older adults who are at-risk of falling. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does task-specific balance training improve the ability to prevent falling when unexpected perturbations such as slips and trips occur, and/or improve balance control during self-initiated movements? * Does task-specific balance training reduce real-life falls for 18 months after training? Researchers will compare task-specific balance training with conventional balance training and treadmill perturbation-based training to examine how this novel intervention compares to established interventions for improving balance. Participants who participate in the study will be asked to do the following: * Complete a pre-training assessment of their balance control, and then be randomized to one of three training groups: 1) task-specific balance training, 2) treadmill perturbation-based training, and 3) conventional balance training * Complete their assigned training protocol for 8 weeks (2x per week for a total of 16 sessions) * Complete 2 post-training assessments of their balance control, the first being completed immediately after the training is completed, and the second being completed 18 months after the training is completed * Wear a physical activity monitor for 18 months after completing the intervention to monitor their real life falls.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety of NVG-2089 and to evaluate how well patients respond to this investigational treatment. NVG-2089 is a new drug that is being developed for treating patients with ITP. NVG-2089 is designed to mimic the effects of a protein called IVIg. NVG-2089 is designed to help the immune system by attaching (binding) to certain receptors in the body and activating them, which helps reduce inflammation and supports how the immune system works.

In the brain, certain nerve cells communicate using a chemical called acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is thought to be important for several functions including mood, memory and wakefulness. The purpose of this study is to explore the role of these nerve cells in depression. Also, we would like to understand how nicotine, the study drug, works in depression and how it affects these nerve cells. To do this, brain imaging will be used before and after this treatment.

The goal of this project was to reduce and manage obesity and increase self-efficacy for keeping a healthy weight and improve pain, quality of life, and mental health symptoms among 60 adults aged 19 and older in Camden City, New Jersey. The City of Camden has an adult obesity rate of 44.1%. Obesity and aging are significant contributing factors to increased utilizations of healthcare services. Obesity is a major risk factor for non-communicable illnesses such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, pain, and mental health. Physical activity is effective in reducing and managing obesity. However, personal barriers (e.g., lack of time for physical activity, physical capability to perform physical activities, competing demands), built environment (e.g., safe spaces for physical activities), climate changes (e.g., heat waves and extreme weather which prevent outdoor physical activities), and systematic barriers (e.g., intervention availability) hamper obesity prevention and management in older adult population. To help older adults keep a healthy weight, our team has adapted and delivered the effective person-centered integrative interventions: HealthyWE: Keeping a Healthy Weight program to older adults in Camden New Jersey. Completion of the project will build a strong community capacity in Camden to sustain a community effort to reduce obesity and pain. Read Less
