This study aimed to see if a special breathing technique called isocapnic hyperventilation could remove methanol from the blood, similar to dialysis. It was designed for adults with methanol poisoning who were not in a coma. However, the study was withdrawn before any participant…

This study compares two treatments for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver: needle ablation (using heat to destroy tumors) and surgical removal. 230 patients will be randomly assigned to one of the two procedures. The main goal is to see if the cancer comes back at the…

This study tests whether a specially designed smartphone app can help women who had pregnancy complications like preeclampsia or gestational diabetes get better follow-up care for their heart health. About 400 women will either use the app or receive standard care. The goal is to…

This study looks at two ways to treat a serious shoulder fracture in people aged 65 to 85: a shoulder replacement surgery (reverse prosthesis) or non-surgical care like a sling and physical therapy. The goal is to see which approach helps patients regain better arm and shoulder f…

This study looks at whether a urine test called BladMetrix can safely detect bladder cancer coming back after surgery. About 500 adults with non-invasive bladder cancer will provide extra urine samples during their regular check-ups over two years. The goal is to see if the test …

This study tests a virtual version of the Body Project, a program designed to prevent eating disorders in young women (ages 16-25) who have body image concerns. About 441 participants will join online groups led by either a peer or a clinician. The goal is to see if the program r…

This study looks at whether a self-management program can reduce pain and improve function for people with greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS), a common cause of chronic hip pain. About 110 adults aged 18-70 with hip pain lasting over 3 months will be randomly assigned to e…

This study tests Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), a type of talk therapy that teaches people to reinterpret pain signals, for chronic widespread pain and fibromyalgia. Fifteen adults will track their pain, mood, sleep, and activity multiple times daily during a baseline period an…

This study tests a thin monitoring probe placed near the surgical site after pancreatic cancer surgery. The probe measures substances like lactic acid and glycerol to detect internal leaks early, before the patient becomes seriously ill. About 200 adults having this surgery will …

This study tests a small sensor placed in the muscle or tissue of a replanted limb after traumatic amputation surgery. The sensor continuously measures carbon dioxide (CO2) and temperature to quickly detect if blood flow is blocked. If a problem is found, doctors can operate agai…

This study looks at how breastfeeding changes cholesterol and heart disease risk in women with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), a genetic condition causing very high cholesterol. Researchers will follow 50 pregnant women (with and without FH) from late pregnancy through one ye…

This study looks at whether bacteria in the gut and mouth are linked to a higher risk of stroke in people with narrowed neck arteries. Researchers will measure certain waste products from bacteria in the blood and track who has a stroke over time. No new treatments are being test…

This study tests whether women with high-risk pregnancies can safely monitor their health from home instead of staying in the hospital. Researchers will check if home monitoring is feasible, safe, and cost-effective, and whether it improves patients' quality of life. The study in…

This study looks at 100 people with chronic mesenteric ischemia, a condition where the gut doesn't get enough blood flow. Researchers use special tools during a stomach scope to measure oxygen and blood flow before and after treatment. The goal is to learn more about the conditio…

This study tests a small sensor placed under the skin after reconstructive flap surgery to measure carbon dioxide (CO2) levels. If blood flow is blocked, CO2 rises quickly, alerting doctors to check and treat the problem early. About 160 adults having flap surgery will take part,…
