Physical activity is an essential first-line treatment for patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, only 13% of patients meet the activity recommendation of 150 minutes or more per week. The primary goal of this randomized controlled trial is to assess the efficacy of a F…

This research aims to extend the application of spreading depolarization monitoring to non-surgical TBI patients, using intraparenchymal electrode arrays and scalp electroencephalography to detect depolarizations and develop less invasive monitoring methods.

The objective of the study is to determine if a dual inhaled bronchodilator (Glycopyrrolate/Formoterol) is effective in increasing exercise time relative to placebo in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

The goal of this observational study is to describe the natural history of imprinting disorders (IDs) according to their metabolic profile in all patients (adults and children) affected with an ID regardless of the severity of the disease, with a molecular characterization, with …

The investigators are doing this study to improve our ability to identify which people with many moles on their skin are most likely to develop skin melanoma. The investigators hope to identify features of moles that are associated with melanoma risk. The investigators hope to us…

Each year, half a million patients with a potential neck (c-spine) injury are transported to Ontario emergency departments (ED). Less than 1% of all these patients actually have a neck bone fracture. Even less (0.5%) have a spinal cord injury or nerve damage. These injuries usual…

The Coordinating and Data Management Center (CDMC) at MD Anderson Cancer will be responsible for the coordination and data management for the Prospective Evaluation of Chronic Pancreatitis for Epidemiologic and Translational Studies (PROCCEED) Study, which is part of the NIH U01 …

The Pecs block (pectoral nerves block) is an easy and reliable superficial block inspired by the infraclavicular block approach and the intercostal abdominis plane blocks . Many additives were used in combination with local anesthetics in Pecs block to prolong the postoperative a…

Up to 30 evaluable participants with known or suspected breast cancer (BIRADS 5 by imaging) will undergo FTT PET/CT imaging before primary surgery or neoadjuvant therapy. Patients undergoing neoadjuvant therapy may choose to have a second FTT PET/CT scan after the start of therap…

Study is enrolling newly diagnosed breast cancer patients about to start chemotherapy and age-matched control participants. The investigator is trying to better understand the prevalence of cognitive difficulties in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy compared to the general p…

The invesigators propose a clinical study on patients undergoing carotid surgery (endarterectomy). The invesigators will determine carotid artery imaging features associated with (1) vessel wall inflammation, (2) downstream brain inflammation, and (3) cognitive benefit from surge…

High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) plays a major role in the management of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) by identifying characteristic lesions of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP). Though HRCT is the standard reference to describe pulmonary structural alterations u…

This is a Phase I multicenter, double-blind, single dose, dose-ranging study, in healthy men to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of Dimethandrolone Undecanoate (DMAU) administered as an intramuscular or subcutaneous injection.

The primary objective of this study is to collect electroretinogram ERG measurements from visually normal and abnormal subjects using the FDA cleared RETeval device (K142567). Data from the visually normal subjects will be used to create reference intervals for the device. Second…

The goal of this study is assess the safety and tolerability of the IRX-2 regimen in patients with early stage breast cancer (ESBC) and to estimate the pathologic complete response rate to neoadjuvant anthracycline-based and non-platinum containing chemotherapy in patients with t…

The primary objective of this study is to obtain implant survivorship and clinical outcomes data for the commercially available Persona Partial Knee System.

Fetal research and clinical practice has been hampered by a lack of suitable investigational techniques. Currently, ultrasound is the only widely used method of studying fetal anatomy and physiology, but it has significant limitations for assessment of cardiac rhythm. The propose…

The purpose of the study is to assess the effect of music therapy on anxiety and hypertension during cataract surgery procedures performed under topical anaesthesia.

The purpose of the proposed study is to use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate how a change in facial appearance is initially represented in brain circuits and then alters over time, as the new face becomes recognized as "me". Investigators will try to i…

The immediate goal of the proposed research is to test the value of a new low-cost, low-dose standing CT system for efficient early detection of both joint degeneration and elevated contact stress. The standing CT scanner holds promise for detecting arthritic changes earlier than…
