The investigator is investigating if acupuncture may improve pulmonary function, exercise tolerance, stress and modulate the inflammatory effects of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The investigator would like to measure the effect of the combination of acupuncture w…

The aim of this pilot study is to explore whether the knowledge and experience gained during the T-GaiD project (Treatment of Gait Disorders in Dravet Syndrome - NCT03857451) can be transferred to other populations with similar problems, i.e. motor and gait problems as a result o…

This is a prospective, randomized trial that aims to study the efficacy and clinical outcomes of a novel Bipolar Knife vs. Monopolar Knives on patients who undergo endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) procedure at Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center.

The participants will perform a cognitive control task. During the task, rhythmic trains of transcranial magnetic stimulation will be delivered to the prefrontal cortex and parietal cortex. Participants will be screened for their ability to perform the task. Magnetic resonance im…

The purpose of this research study is to examine the effect of various forms of exercise training on blood vessel function in healthy individuals as well as individuals with mental health disorders (posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and/or generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)).

The main objective of this RE-SAMPLE cohort study is to identify from a real-world data (RWD) set that will be collected, a subset of data that can be potentially used as important predictors and parameters for disease progression of COPD and complex chronic conditions, and multi…

This work is designed as a randomized clinical trial, in which the effects of a protocol of 12-week resistance training loading the Achilles tendon and low-energy focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) in patients with Achilles tendinopathy (AT) will be monitored. It is…

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of VAY736 alone or in combination with other therapies in patients with NHL in a platform trial.

The aim of the study is to determine whether or not extra-sheath steroid injections are inferior to intra-sheath steroid injections in the treatment of DeQuervain's Tenosynovitis. Patients will be randomized to either the intra-sheath group or the extra-sheath group and their pr…

The aim of the prospective randomized single center study is to evaluate the effect of a short-term (16 weeks) yoga program on micro RNA (miRNA) expression and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in patients with CVD.

MS is a heterogeneous disease either in its response to treatment or clinical manifestation. Indeed, the natural history of MS is varying from a benign condition to a devastating and rapidly incapacitating disease. Clinical heterogeneity could also be cellular and / or molecular.…

he primary objective is to characterize the safety profile of UGN-201 in patients with urothelial carcinoma undergoing radical cystectomy. Corresponding primary endpoint: Toxicity of concern (TOX) will be monitored until 30 days after surgery or until the patient meets the surge…

The investigators propose to test the use of pramipexole in patients being treated for Opioid Use Disorder to test its ability to reduce symptoms of both Restless Legs Syndrome and protracted opioid withdrawal and thereby promote initiation, engagement, and retention in treatment…
