NCT00609180
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute lung injury (ALI) are medical conditions that occur when there is severe inflammation and increased fluids in both lungs, making it difficult for the lungs to function properly. Hospital treatment for a person with ALI/ARDS often includes the use of a breathing machine, or ventilator, until the person is able to breathe without assistance. Initiating proper nutrition through a feeding tube early in a person's hospital stay may help to improve recovery, but the optimal timing, composition, and amount of feeding treatments are unknown. This study will evaluate whether early or delayed full-calorie feeding through a feeding tube is more effective in reducing recovery time and increasing survival rates in people with ALI/ARDS. The study will also determine whether supplementing the feedings with omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants benefits people with ALI/ARDS.
NCT01937130

NCT01349946
Diffusion and Perfusion Imaging Evaluation for Understanding Stroke Evolution Study 2 (DEFUSE 2) is a multi-center pilot study to determine if cerebral perfusion imaging can help identify which patients, who are ineligible for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (iv tPA) therapy or have failed iv tPA therapy, are most likely to benefit from an endovascular clot removal procedure.
NCT00627991
Patients who are suffering from a stroke often present to the hospital with elevated blood pressure. Elevated blood pressure in the setting of stroke increases the risk of brain swelling or bleeding into the brain. Even so, there has been concern about lowering the blood pressure with medications because the newly injured parts of the brain may not get the blood flow they need, thereby worsening the damage from the initial stroke. We hope to demonstrate that the drug valsartan can be used safely and modestly to lower blood pressure in acute stroke patients, without having a detrimental effect on brain blood flow or neurologic status. Novel MRI techniques to measure brain blood flow will be used in conjunction with clinical scales to demonstrate safety.
NCT00926536
Patients will be enrolled based on presence of HCC and eligibility for TACE. They will be randomized to one of two arms for imaging navigation to the optimal catheter location for chemotherapy injection to treat the first (possibly sole) tumor target. The two arms will be: TACE using C-arm CT supplemented by DSA or DSA only (only DSA images will be used for navigation and tumor vessel tracking). Navigation to subsequent treatment targets in all patients will be done with fluoroscopy, CACT, and DSA, as is standard of care at Stanford University Medical Center, and is not part of the study. Vascular complexity, which affects navigation difficulty and thus the need for imaging, will be assessed separately for use in data analysis by two radiologists on a four-point scale.
NCT00814970

NCT01836042
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of the Glaukos® iStent® Trabecular Micro-Bypass Stent Model GTS100R/L in subjects previously enrolled in Glaukos Study GC-003.
NCT00936676
Eligible participants, who participated in the ADAGIO trial and who sign an approved informed consent form, will be enrolled into the study at their original study locations. participants who have stopped rasagiline therapy and in the opinion of the investigator will gain clinical benefit from restarting treatment can also be considered for enrollment in the Core follow-up study period. Use of any other anti-PD treatment is permitted as deemed necessary by the treating physician (according to the participants clinical status).
NCT00972816
This study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of different combinations of A/H1N1 S-OIV (swine flu) vaccine in healthy young children.
NCT02293265
This will be a non-drug interventional cross-sectional study, where the screening visit and study visit can occur on the same day. Investigational product will not be administered. Approximately 790 subjects with severe asthma will be screened to achieve a total of at least 750 evaluable study subjects. The study will not include a run-in or follow-up period. This study will provide a more reliable description of the severe asthma patient landscape with respect to the potential eligibility for treatment with mepolizumab, omalizumab, and reslizumab. This study aims to estimate the potential overlap of patients eligible for treatment with mepolizumab and those eligible for treatment with omalizumab and/or reslizumab. Additionally, the current study will also ascertain and describe reslizumab eligibility with respect to both mepolizumab and omalizumab, in the severe asthma patient population.
NCT02712645
This study is being performed to collect blood for the development of noninvasive tests that can screen for or diagnose cancer. Blood samples will be collected from women who are scheduled to have breast biopsies.
NCT00120289

The primary objective of efficacy evaluation is planned after 24 weeks of treatment. The study is designed to show superiority of the combination of empagliflozin and linagliptin over empagliflozin alone.
NCT00280137
To examine the psychometric properties of a brief quality of life (QOL) instrument for use in pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The purpose of this prospective study is primarily to determine the validity and reliability of a new health-related quality of life (HRQOL) measure in children with systemic lupus erythematous (SLE). We wish to secondarily examine concordance between child- and parent-reports of the HRQOL measure and identify factors associated with poorer HRQOL in them. Earlier studies have shown that SLE significantly impacts QOL in adults. At present, there is no disease-specific instrument for measuring HRQOL in children with SLE. In response to these concerns, we developed the "Simple Measure of Impact of Lupus Erythematosus in Youngsters© (SMILEY©). Establishing the validity and reliability of SMILEY©, examining child-parent agreement and identifying factors associated with poorer HRQOL will enable us to measure the impact of SLE in children, and formulate appropriate interventions for this sensitive population. We plan the following specific aims: 1. to determine construct validity and reliability of SMILEY© child and parent versions in children with SLE using gold standards (Pediatric Quality of Life inventory - PedsQL generic and rheumatology modules, Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire -CHAQ) 2. to determine responsiveness of SMILEY© 3. to examine level of agreement between child- and parent-reports of SMILEY© in children with SLE 4. to identify medical (steroid use, use of disease modifying agents such as cytoxan, cellcept, thalidomide, or cyclosporine, disease duration, disease activity and disease damage etc.) and psychosocial (self-concept, socioeconomic status) factors that affect HRQOL (as measured by child- and parent-reports of SMILEY© and PedsQL generic and rheumatology modules) and physical function 5) to translate, adapt and validate SMILEY in different languages
