NCT07148817
Noise from cars, planes, and trains affects all people and has been associated with heart disease. Almost 30% of Americans are exposed to harmful levels of noise and noise accounts for the loss of more than one million healthy life years per year in Europe. Noise causes stress and may be most dangerous when it happens at night. The mechanisms linking noise to heart disease involve changes in the brain and the "fight or flight" response. These changes lead to inflammation and blood vessel disease. However, there are few laws that restrict noise and it is not addressed in medical care. Further, as cities and industries grow, noise continues to increase. Moreover, noise often occurs in areas that are also exposed to other stressors like high air pollution and low income. Yet, there is little research on noise, and it is not known if lowering noise exposure helps heart health. The investigators will use imaging to test if earplugs that block noise improve stress symptoms and changes in the the brain, blood vessels, and stress pathways that lead to disease. The investigators expect that people who use earplugs will have lower measures of stress and heart disease at follow-up. The study will include 26 people with heart disease risk with high noise exposure or who are annoyed by noise. At the first visit, subjects will have imaging of the brain and blood vessels and will have assessments of stress, inflammation, and the "fight or flight" response. They will be assigned to use earplugs or not after the first visit. After 6 months, imaging and other testing will be repeated. It will help to understand how noise impacts the body and whether the effects can be changed. It may also identify important treatments to prevent heart disease in people exposed to noise. By testing if the adverse effects of noise can be lowered with earplugs, this project supports the AHA's mission to be a force for a world of longer and healthier lives.
NCT05790109
The goal of this study is to assess the physician and patient experience of radio frequency (RF) track cautery in patients undergoing needle biopsy of the liver, kidney, or spleen who have one or more risk factors for biopsy-related bleeding. RF track cautery involves inserting a bipolar electrode through the same introducer needle used for the biopsy, and heating the tissues along the path of the biopsy needle to prevent bleeding. This study primarily aims to assess the operator and patient experience during the use of track cautery. Secondary aims are to assess the technical success rate and procedure adverse events. Participants who enroll in the study will undergo track cautery as part of their clinically indicated liver, kidney, or spleen biopsy. After the procedure, they will fill out a brief survey asking about their experience during the procedure. Physician operators who perform track cautery as part of the study will also fill out a survey after each procedure asking about their experience using this technique.
NCT02831959
The study is a prospective, randomized controlled phase III trial, to test the efficacy, safety and neurocognitive outcomes of advanced NSCLC patients, following stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for 1 inoperable brain metastasis or 2-10 brain metastases, treated with NovoTTF-200M and supportive treatment compared to supportive treatment alone. The device is an experimental, portable, battery operated device for chronic administration of alternating electric fields (termed TTFields or TTF) to the region of the malignant tumor, by means of surface, insulated electrode arrays.
NCT06416670
We will perform a parallel-group multicenter patient-level randomized controlled evaluation of skilled nursing facility care at home. Patients typically referred to a skilled nursing facility following hospitalization will be eligible for enrollment. Instead of admission to a skilled nursing facility, participants will receive care from a technology-enabled team in their own homes or will be allocated to receive care in a traditional skilled nursing facility setting.
NCT06414434
This study is testing two different doses of BTX-A51 to determine if it is safe and tolerable in participants with liposarcoma with MDM2 amplification, myxoid liposarcoma, and CIC-rearranged sarcoma. The name of the study drug used in this research study is: -BTX-A51 (a type of kinase inhibitor)
NCT04352244
Brown fat is a type of fat, found in both children and adults, which can produce heat and regulate the body's metabolism and energy use. White fat is the more common type of fat which is used to store extra calories. Understanding more about differences between brown and white fat may allow us to develop new approaches to improve the body's metabolism.

NCT05344092
Compared to civilian students in higher education, student Veterans have high rates of mental health disorders (e.g., Depression: 24% vs 12.1%). As a result, Veterans with mental health disorders can be more likely to experience academic issues, such as lower enrollment rates and slower degree attainment on average. Though many student Veterans could benefit from programming embedded in supported education interventions, current in-person VA supported education treatments are often difficult to access - or not available locally - for these Veterans. In addition, there is no widely available, VA-specific online or mobile-app based resource for students. The goal of this project is to develop and evaluate a comprehensive mobile app for student Veterans with mental health disorders. VetEd will provide a resource to (1) orient student Veterans with mental health disorders to successfully transition to the role of student as defined by their self-created educational roadmap, which will include helping students acquire (2) academic skills, (3) mental health management skills, and (4) up-to-date information on psychiatric, academic, and financial resources to help them successfully meet higher-education expectations. This overall study involves three aims: 1) Developing a Veteran-centered educational support app to help student Veterans with mental health disorders to identify their perceived academic needs, app preferences, and evaluate Veteran-centered content; 2) Testing and iteratively revising the VetEd app (n =15) by assessing app software, content, human-computer interface, usability, satisfaction data, and preliminary exploration of changes in educational functioning (course activity completion, academic self-efficacy, and retention; and 3) Completing final revisions of the VetEd app for a future grant application of a larger randomized controlled trial. This pilot project is significant and innovative in three key respects: (1) it extends services based in previous, effective supported education research to address both psychiatric and academic concerns for Veterans with mental health disorders; (2) is potentially cost-effective and easy to disseminate nationally; and (3) focuses on improving Veterans' academic functioning and quality of life is substantially different than current VA mobile app offerings.
NCT07223255
There is no study to date that has evaluated the impact or effect of a Mediterranean diet in children with CF. The goal of this study would be to help provide better guidance around questions we, as CF care providers continue to receive from patients and families about how to best promote overall health in pediatric cystic fibrosis from a dietary perspective. Currently, the updated nutritional recommendations are variable and broad. Parents continue to search for more concrete guidance about how best to promote long-term health given the ever-increasing life expectancy of cystic fibrosis patients in this new area of advanced therapeutics. Given the changing landscape of the CF care in general, children are less likely to struggle with early life malnutrition, and it is becoming increasingly clear that high fat, high calorie diets are not beneficial nor are necessary for all children with CF.
NCT06147830
REVERXaL study aims to increase the understanding of the patient characteristics, bleeding presentation, health care interventions provided, and the clinical as well as self-reported health outcomes of patients with major bleeding in the presence of Factor Xa inhibitor treatment. The generation of insight on treatment approaches and associated outcomes in hospitalized patients with Factor Xa inhibitor-related major bleeds may inform clinical guidelines, health system decision making and streamline treatment pathways in this population.
