This study investigates how the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory questionnaire modified for use with adolescents performs in adolescent patients with cancer. Conducting interviews with adolescents about the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory may help researchers improve the questionnaire…

To further understand the tolerability of glucagon.

Melatonin is well known for its role in the sleep-wake cycle but it is less well known as an effective antioxidant. It has been reported to be synthesised in the placenta and may have both receptor mediated and non-receptor mediated protective functions during pregnancy. Severe p…

Choosing a transplant center that will accept a particular candidate can be difficult and challenging for patients with end-stage organ failure. As transplant centers have varying levels of expertise, interests, and outcomes of solid organ transplant, patient health-related chara…

The main goal of this study is to determine if supplemental oxygen given only when the patient is inspiring (demand delivery) is more effective than constant-flow oxygen given during all phases of the breath regardless if the patient is breathing it in. A previous study in volunt…

This is a Phase l double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, bioavailability and food effect of single doses of APX001 administered intravenously and orally, followed by an evaluation of the safety, tolerability, …

The purpose of this study is to learn about health care use, costs, and clinical outcomes over time for amyloid positive participants with early stages of AD in the United States. This study is for research purposes only, and is not intended to treat any medical condition. No stu…

To assess the pharmacokinetics of MCI-186 after a single intravenous infusion of 30mg/hour in subjects with mild or moderate renal impairment compared to subjects with normal renal function.

The aim of this study is to examine how the number of daily eating occasions and the timing of energy intake influence gut microbiome composition in both morbidly obese and non-obese individuals. The analysis is based on baseline data from a case-control study involving 11 non-ob…

The intraoperative assessment of analgesia remains problematic and no analgesia monitor is used in routine practice.

The purpose of this study is to quantify the placental perfusion during the first trimester of pregnancy by 3D Doppler ultrasound angiography without a contrast agent and by ultrasound with a contrast agent: SonoVue®

Dynamic arterial elastance (Eadyn) has been proposed as an indicator of arterial tone that can predict norepinephrine-dependent arterial pressure. Eadyn is calculated using the ratio of respiratory pulse pressure variation (PPV) over the respiratory stroke volume variation (SVV).…

X-rays are the most frequently used imaging test when evaluating the knee for joint replacement. They are non-invasive, safe and cost effective. They allow assessment of: progression of disease, appropriateness for joint replacement, in particular unicompartmental knee replacemen…

The purpose of this pilot study was to compare two commonly employed intravenous drug combinations; I) nitrous oxide, midazolam, fentanyl, and ketamine and II) the same combination with substitution of propofol for ketamine, for use during wisdom teeth extraction. Measures of rec…

Evaluation of insulin absorption at sites affected by clinically apparent lipohypertrophy through short-term continuous glucose monitoring has shown inconsistent results and it is yet unknown how or if subclinical lipohypertrophy affects absorption. In this study investigators pr…

The purpose of this registry is to find members of the Plain Community who are interested in participating in future medical research studies. Having a registry makes it easier to contact and offer study participation to individuals who are appropriate for a new research study ba…

Specifically, the main objective of this pilot and feasibility study is to develop the infrastructure that will be used in a larger study that would be proposed at a later date. Hence, this study has two parts. Part A: To establish contacts, collaboration, and networking to devel…

This project aims to establish a network of spine oncology centers dedicated to prospective multicenter research of patients diagnosed with a primary tumor of the spine and will include a comprehensive prospective clinical database which will serve as a shared research platform. …

The primary aim is to utilize near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in patients under general anesthesia to measure changes in brain blood flow in the bilateral somatosensory cortices and the prefrontal cortices in response to noxious stimulation.
