The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether genicular nerve block (GNB) is effective in reducing pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis. It will also assess the comparative efficacy of different injection protocols. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does g…

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility and validity of a previously developed peroral cholangioscopy (POC) convolutional neural network (CNN) to determine the etiology of biliary strictures when used in real-time.

This project will evaluate a telemedicine-delivered, Unified Protocol for Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (UP-CBT) enhanced with continuous glucose monitor (CGM) review to target anxiety and depressive symptoms and glycemic control in adults with type 1 diabetes.

The study is being conducted to determine if a same-day, low-dose intravenous (into a vein) injection of indocyanine green (ICG) (FDA-approved dye) being detected by using an imaging system can be a useful tool in identifying and differentiating tumor tissue from normal tissues.

A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial using a Chinese Medicine formula in treating Chronic pharyngolaryngitis. Subjects will be randomized into a treatment group or placebo group for 8 weeks, and then followed by an 8-week post-treatment visit.

The ketogenic diet (KD) is a metabolic shift, which stimulates the liver oxidation of fatty acids to produce ketone bodies. These ketone bodies represent an alternative fuel source for the brain. The benefits of KD in epilepsia have been demonstrated for decades. This diet may al…

Particulate matter (PM) associated cardiorespiratory and vascular dysfunction (CaRVD) poses a significant global health burden. The World Trade Center (WTC) destruction on September 11, 2001 led to an intense deposition of particulate matter (WTC-PM) into aerodigestive system. WT…
