This study aims to evaluate tongue protrusion motor skills in healthy adults and to assess the reliability of these measurements as well as their validity in relation to other motor functions (handgrip and respiratory muscles).

The investigators thus propose a comparative effectiveness quality improvement project to evaluate the feasibility of switching from near-exclusive use of isoflurane in adult general surgical patients to Desflurane.

This study aims to compare electrocardiographic interval measurements obtained from a torso-placed six-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) device (torso-derived ECG; T-ECG) with those obtained from a standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) in healthy adult volunteers. The torso-derived…

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and immunogenicity of single and multiple ascending doses of LAD603 in healthy adult participants in both Part 1 and 2.

Dietary inorganic nitrate supplementation may have positive implications on cardiovascular function. The aim of this project is to determine if nitrate supplementation can attenuate the effects that caffeine and cold exposure have on the cardiovascular system.

Post operative intraocular lens position is being measured after cataract surgery in 34 patients with long and short eyes.

Hypothesis: In surgical patients with type 2 diabetes, taking either metformin or salsalate on the morning of surgery will reduce the incidence of hyperglycemia, inflammation and even surgical site infections, without any obvious patient risk relative to patients given a placebo …

The purpose of this study is to evaluate, in patients presenting with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) by ventricular fibrillation, refractory to 3 external electric shocks, the efficacy of a direct intravenous injection of 20 mmol KCl on their survival at hospital arrival.

This research is being done because the investigators are looking for new and better ways to treat a type of breast cancer called triple negative breast cancer. This type of breast cancer can be more difficult to treat than other types of breast cancer as it does not respond to d…

MSI is a molecular indicator of defective DNA mismatch repair (dMMR). The MSI/dMMR status is observed in all tumor types, representing notably 5% of metastatic colorectal cancers (mCRC), 25% of advanced endometrial cancer and 8% of metastatic gastric cancer. MSI/dMMR cancers are…

Patients undergoing an endobronchial ultrasound and biopsy can experience bleeding during the biopsy. These biopsies are read in real time by pathologists who travel to the endoscopy unit during the procedure. Often, when this happens, the blood contaminates the pathology slides …

This study is designed to investigate whether adjuvant radiochemotherapy after incomplete resection has a better survival than adjuvant radiotherapy for thymoma or thymic carcinoma.

We now have many pharmacological and psychotherapeutic treatments for patients suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), including cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) by reactivation of traumatic memories. Despite remarkable initial efficacy, only one-third of pati…

The registry is an observational surveillance program designed to recruit and encourage participation of women who were exposed to PREHEVBRIO® hepatitis B vaccine during pregnancy and to collect and analyze information related to post-exposure pregnancy and fetal and neonatal out…

The goal of this study is to pilot the "support tool" in the Nemours Cardiac Center to assess acceptability and feasibility. This tool will be offered to 5 high-risk families, and they will be asked to complete a survey. In addition, healthcare providers including bed-side nurses…

The goal of this prospective observational study is to develop and utilize an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model for the prediction of postoperative sepsis in patients undergoing abdominal surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can a remote AI-driven monitoring sy…

The investigator's plan to quantify the physiologic impact of orthopaedic surgery on the surgeon and operating team.

This is a first-in-human (FIH), randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, single ascending dose (SAD) study to assess the safety and tolerability of VIS954, a monoclonal antibody, in healthy adult male and female participants.

The overall aim of this trial is to compare functional and patient-reported outcomes and to assess the safety and effectiveness and long-term performance of the Smith+Nephew Robotic Systems for Unicompartmental Knee Replacements to non-robotic, conventionally implanted Unicompart…

The purpose of this study is to determine the relative amounts of radioactivity excreted in urine and feces following a single oral dose of \[14C\]-OPC-167832 in healthy male participants.
