This trial investigates the best way to treat people who have a heart attack and also have other narrowed arteries. It compares doing an immediate procedure to open those other arteries, guided by a pressure wire, versus waiting and using a heart scan to decide later. The goal is…

This trial asks whether giving only ticagrelor (a blood thinner) after a heart attack, instead of the usual ticagrelor plus aspirin, is just as safe and might reduce bleeding and heart muscle damage. About 200 people who had a type of heart attack called STEMI and underwent a ste…

This study tests whether a smartphone app that coaches older adults to eat more protein can help them maintain muscle mass and strength. Researchers will enroll 140 participants who are open to changing their diet and using an app. The app provides personalized nutritional coachi…

This phase 3 trial tests whether colchicine, an anti-inflammatory drug, can slow the progression of aortic valve stenosis—a narrowing of the heart's aortic valve that currently has no drug treatment. The study enrolls 150 people with moderate, symptom-free valve disease. Particip…

This study tests a personalized workplace intervention for 124 Dutch workers with Parkinson's disease, cerebellar ataxia, hereditary spastic paraparesis, or slowly progressive neuromuscular/mitochondrial disorders. A trained facilitator helps employees and their managers identify…

This study tests whether a personalized lifestyle program focusing on stress, exercise, nutrition, sleep, and self-management can improve quality of life for people with Parkinson's disease. 256 participants will be randomly assigned to either work on their goals independently or…

This study tests whether mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) can reduce psychological distress in people with Parkinson's disease. 174 participants with mild-to-moderate stress symptoms will either receive MBCT or continue usual care. The main goal is to see if MBCT lowers…

This study looks at why botulinum toxin injections help only some people with arm tremor related to dystonia. Researchers will measure muscle activity, ultrasound, and brain imaging before treatment, then track tremor severity after three rounds of injections. The goal is to find…

This study follows 250 male endurance athletes who were part of an earlier study to see how their heart arteries have changed over time. Researchers will use CT scans and AI to examine plaque buildup and determine if it is stable and harmless or likely to cause heart attacks. The…

This study aims to find out whether a person's genes and clinical profile can predict who will develop acute or chronic pain after major surgery. Researchers will follow 10,000 patients for one year after their operation, tracking pain levels and daily functioning. The goal is to…

This study looks at two treatments for severe depression: electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) and antidepressant medication. Researchers want to see which one works better and is more cost-effective in the long run. The study involves 220 adults in the Netherlands who have not gotten…
