This randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the clinical and biochemical effects of omega-3 fatty acids combined with low-dose aspirin as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) in smoker patients with Stage III periodontitis. The study co…

This study consists of a randomized controlled trial assessing the acceptability, feasibility, and efficacy of the RELAX (Regulating Emotions Like An eXpert) Intervention. Following randomization, 30 families will receive the RELAX intervention and 30 families will receive psycho…

People in good health do not perceive the future in the same way as those suffering from depression. This difference in perception affects behaviour and emotions and warrants further investigation, both before and after treatment with antidepressants. Research shows that past neg…

This randomized controlled trial evaluates the effectiveness of three distraction techniques-virtual reality (VR) headset, squishy (squeeze toy), and poetry reading-on postoperative pain control in adults undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Participants are randomized into four p…

Some types of meditation lead heart rate to become more steady as breathing quiets whereas others lead to large heart rate swings up and down (oscillations) as breathing becomes deeper and slower. The current study is designed to investigate how daily mindfulness practice with he…

Background Neonatal jaundice affects about 60% of full-term newborns in their first week. If untreated, it can lead to permanent brain damage. In Denmark, 2-5% of newborns require phototherapy, the standard treatment. The maximum beneficial irradiance limit for phototherapy remai…

The neural correlates of consciousness have been studied at the macroscopic level. However, the neurochemical basis of these processes remains poorly understood. The mesocircuit theory challenges the cortico-centric view of consciousness. It highlights the role of subcortical reg…

The purpose of this study is to understand if combining Low Vision Rehabilitation (LVR) with Emotional Regulation Therapy (ERT) can help people with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) that experience emotional distress related to participants' vision loss. The study team hypothes…

This is a pilot randomized controlled trial of an adaptive 8-week text messaging intervention for depression self-management. Among 100 individuals with elevated depression symptoms, the investigators will compare the effects of 8 weeks of the adaptive text messaging intervention…

The prevalence of overweight and obesity remains epidemic in the United States, with some of the highest rates seen in older adults. While this phenomenon is certainly multifactorial, a good deal of evidence suggests that insufficient physical activity (PA) contributes significan…

Through an open-label study involving a small group of UCSD physicians experiencing burnout, the investigators will evaluate the feasibility, safety, and preliminary effectiveness of PAT to reduce burnout symptoms.

Transcutaneous Electrical Acustimulation (TEA) is a noninvasive acupuncture method that can be self-administered at home without needles. TEA transmits a weak electrical current using electrodes placed at acupoints and has shown to safely reduce pain in other gastrointestinal con…

The goal of this study is to determine whether supplementation with Hericium erinaceus (Lion's Mane) extract enhances selected cognitive functions in healthy, actively working, middle-aged women. We aim to investigate a broad spectrum of cognitive functions to identify which, if …

This is a first-in-human (FIH), open-label, multiple-site, dose escalation study which will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and immunogenicity of increasing doses of BNT317 in participants with advanced solid tumors.

The Michigan Men's Diabetes Project III: Mind \& Motion is an 7-month pilot randomized clinical trial. The investigators are looking to recruit 80 Black men with type 2 diabetes (T2D) (need to have diagnosis for at least one year) that are over the age of 18. Participants also mu…

Frailty describes the variability in aging and explains why two people of the same chronological age may look very different. Higher frailty leads to poor quality of life, disability, and death. Hospitalized patients living with frailty have a higher risk for functional decline, …

The purpose of this study is to find out how the language of people with Primary Progressive Aphasia is affected by Propranolol. Propranolol is not FDA approved for the treatment of Primary Progressive Aphasia. Propranolol is FDA approved for the treatment of heart conditions suc…

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot trial will evaluate the effects of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) supplementation on cognitive function, blood-brain barrier integrity, and brain vascular health in older adults with mild cognitive impairment and APOE4 genotype.…

The goal of this clinical trial (prospective case series) is to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and preliminary clinical outcomes of ultrasound-guided dextrose prolotherapy in female breast cancer survivors with persistent ipsilateral chest wall and axillary pain and tightness …

Language is an extremely complex cognitive function that, in situations of typical development, i.e. in the absence of deficits or environmental risk, is generally acquired with apparent ease and naturalness (Kuhl, 2010). The first 1,000 days of life are considered a key time wi…
