The goal of this clinical trial is to test the ability of different bacterial products in restoring natural gut microbiota in C-section born infants. The main question it aims to answer is: Do maternally derived strains of bacteria perform better than commercially available prob…

Endovascular embolisation is already a common procedure for bleeding haemorrhoids in the acute setting, where surgical options are not possible or have been exhausted. This pilot study aims to add to the small body of evidence that transarterial embolisation of symptomatic haemor…

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and strongly linked to obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes. Besides elevating cardiovascular disease risk, OSA may worsen renal function and diminish quality of life, making it…

The purpose of this study is to understand cellular and molecular interactions in the skin of participants with mild-to-moderate AD, and how botulinum toxin alters these interactions.

This study aims to understand how blood flow at the back of the eye changes over time after this surgery. By studying these changes, the investigators hope to gain insights that could help improve the understanding of other eye diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration (…

This clinical trial trial design will be a pretest-posttest comparison group pilot study that evaluates the implementation of team-based telemedicine visits and remote patient monitoring.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of lifestyle counseling alone compared to lifestyle counseling combined with Clinical Pilates in women with temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The study also aims to examine the effects of these interventions on pai…

Findings from an open-label pilot study of 20 adults suggested that supplementation with 15 g/day of yeast mannans was highly tolerable and demonstrated specific modulation of the microbiota and increased stool frequency in a subset of subjects reporting ≤1 stool per day at basel…

Digital communication tools are becoming ubiquitous in healthcare, though their impact on patient/provider communication, healthcare utilization, and outcomes remains poorly established. M Health Fairview (MHFV) in collaboration with the Center for Learning Health System Sciences…

The purpose of this study is to collect data on blood circulation using a multi-frequency impedance plethysmography device developed in the ThrombUS+ project. Impedance plethysmography (IPG) is a non-invasive method that measures changes in blood volume using electrodes placed on…

This study tests the efficacy of a new behavioral intervention with the goal of reducing spontaneous recovery of threat expectancy in healthy adults. This real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) neurofeedback intervention delivers feedback based on a functional con…

Background: Muscle power, defined as the rate at which muscular force is generated to produce movement, declines more rapidly with age than muscle strength. The decline in lower extremity muscle power is associated with reduced functional independence, impaired mobility, and an i…

The goal of this study is to determine the feasibility of a prehabilitation exercise and nutrition program (exercise and nutrition before a medical treatment) in adults with esophageal cancer before surgery (esophagectomy). The pre-surgery exercise and nutrition program will incl…

The goal of this observational study is to obtain data on the effect of exercise induced hypertension on target organs in adult patients with repaired coarctation of the aorta. The main questions it aims to answer are: * patients with exercise induced hypertension have signs of …

Climate change increases extreme heat events, elevating global heat-illness risk. Females have reduced heat loss capacity (\~5%) compared to males, driven by differences in skin blood flow and sweating responses. While findings on sex-mediated mortality are mixed, some studies su…

This is a post-authorization safety study (PASS) to describe the real-world use of finerenone in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) in China. The study will examine baseline characteristics, comorbidities, and comedications of patients w…

Intraperitoneal pressure (IPP) is an objective measurement used to assess tolerance to fluid volume. IPP has been shown to be strongly correlated with intraperitoneal dialysate volume as well as anthropometric parameters. In observational studies conducted in adults, an IPP great…

Recent clinical trials comparing pulpotomy versus root canal treatment (RCT) have shown promising outcomes; however, the current evidence lacks generalisability to general practitioners. It remains to be elucidated whether these favourable results can be replicated in a primary c…
