This study tests a new approach to radiation therapy for people with stage III lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The treatment uses a special technology called RAPART to personalize the radiation dose based on how sensitive each person's tumor is to radiation. The go…

This study tests whether adjusting ventilator support based on a patient's own breathing effort can improve recovery for adults in the ICU with acute respiratory failure. About 619 participants will be randomly assigned to either the new effort-based method or the traditional app…

This study looks at the best time to start blood thinners after emergency stroke treatment in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). About 438 adults who had a stroke caused by a blocked large artery and received emergency clot removal will be randomly assigned…

This study tests whether a noninvasive procedure called remote ischemic conditioning (using a blood pressure cuff on the arm) can help people recover better after a stroke caused by a large clot. About 2105 adults who have had a stroke and are getting a clot-removal procedure wil…

This study tests whether adding an anti-inflammatory drug (tocilizumab) to standard emergency stroke treatment helps people recover better after a severe stroke in the back part of the brain. About 348 adults who need emergency vessel-opening treatment will be randomly assigned t…

This study tests whether using a real-time lung imaging technique called electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to guide breathing exercises can help adults who have been on a ventilator for 21 days or more get off the machine faster. Two hundred participants will either receive s…

This study tests whether giving albumin, a protein found in blood, along with standard clot-removal treatment helps people recover better from a severe stroke. About 1,200 adults aged 18-80 with a large-vessel stroke in the front part of the brain will be enrolled. The main goal …

This study tests whether telemedicine support can improve treatment for acute ischemic stroke patients at basic-level hospitals in China. About 2,400 participants will be enrolled, with some hospitals receiving remote guidance from stroke experts and others not. The goal is to se…

This study tests a therapy called oscillation and lung expansion (OLE) for patients on breathing machines who have collapsed lung areas (atelectasis). The therapy combines gentle air pressure, vibrations, and medication to clear mucus and reopen airways. Researchers will compare …

This study tests whether adding an anti-inflammatory drug (interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor) to the standard clot removal procedure helps people recover better after a severe stroke caused by a large blockage in a main brain artery. About 692 adults who are eligible for emergency…

This study tests whether giving extra oxygen (normobaric hyperoxia) to people having a major stroke, before they undergo a clot-removal procedure (thrombectomy), can improve their recovery and reduce disability. About 1500 adults with acute ischemic stroke will be randomly assign…

This study looks at 240 adults with atrial fibrillation who had a stroke and then a procedure to remove a clot. Some will start blood thinners early (within 3 days) and others later (after 7-14 days) to see which timing is safer and prevents another stroke. The goal is to find th…

This study looks at whether giving aspirin soon after clot-busting medication for ischemic stroke can help patients recover better without causing dangerous bleeding. About 1,184 adults who had a stroke and still have symptoms after clot-busting drugs will receive either aspirin …

This study is testing a new blood test that looks for tiny protein clumps linked to Alzheimer's disease. Researchers want to see if this test can accurately tell Alzheimer's apart from other types of dementia and normal aging. The study will involve 1,500 adults aged 55-75, inclu…

This study is looking for early warning signs of Alzheimer's disease in 6,000 older adults in China. Researchers will collect samples of blood and other body fluids, along with genetic and brain scan data, to create a test that can diagnose Alzheimer's early. They also aim to bui…

This study tests whether giving antiviral drugs to uninfected hospital roommates of flu patients can prevent them from catching the flu. About 384 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either a placebo, suraxavir marboxil, or oseltamivir. The goal is to see which drug…

This study tests whether a structured exercise program done at home can improve walking ability and overall recovery in people who recently had a stroke. About 208 adults who had a stroke within the past two weeks will be assigned to either the home exercise program or usual care…

This study aims to find the safest and most effective dose of urokinase, a clot-busting drug, for people having an acute ischemic stroke. Researchers will enroll 24 adults aged 18-80 who can receive treatment within 6 hours of symptoms starting. The goal is to develop a weight-ba…

This early study tests whether a precise, low-dose radiation treatment (stereotactic radiotherapy) can safely reduce symptoms in people with treatment-resistant depression. Nine adults aged 18-50 who have not responded to at least two antidepressants will receive the procedure an…

This study will follow 40,000 people from families with a history of Alzheimer's disease across China. Researchers will collect genetic, brain scan, and memory test information to understand how the disease runs in families and how it develops over time. The goal is to improve ea…

This study involves 100 adults with long-term tracheostomy who are ready to have their tube removed. Before removal, participants try three different breathing methods to see which one best predicts safe and successful tube removal. The goal is to improve patient care by identify…

This study follows 1,300 people who had a stroke or mini-stroke and completed a 1-year exercise program. Researchers want to see if the benefits of regular physical activity last for 3 more years. No new treatments are given—just observation to track strokes and other health even…

This study is following 100,000 people aged 55 and older in China to learn more about dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. Researchers will track who develops memory problems, look for genetic and lifestyle risk factors, and find better ways to diagnose the disease. The goal …

This study looks at proteins in spinal fluid and blood to help diagnose Alzheimer's disease more accurately. Researchers will test 3,200 people, including those with Alzheimer's, mild memory problems, other dementias, and healthy volunteers. The goal is to find the best cutoff va…

This study aims to better understand obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) by looking at the clinical features and molecular makeup of 500 patients. Researchers will collect blood, saliva, and urine samples to build a multi-omics database and track patients for at least one year. The goa…

This study is testing whether a non-invasive method—using a speaking valve and measuring air pressure—can accurately predict if the upper airway is open in people with a long-term tracheostomy. About 300 participants will have both the new test and a standard scope exam to see ho…
