This study is testing whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help older adults with type 2 diabetes who do not use insulin achieve better blood sugar control. Participants will either wear a CGM every two months or use standard finger-stick monitoring for six months. The …

This phase 2 study tests a new combination of drugs for people with advanced bone or soft tissue sarcomas that have worsened after standard treatment. The combo includes a nano-form of paclitaxel (to reduce side effects), gemcitabine, and a targeted therapy chosen by tumor type. …

This observational study aims to establish normal ranges for salivary cortisol and find the best cut-off values to diagnose Cushing's syndrome and adrenal insufficiency. Researchers will compare two different lab methods using samples from 220 healthy adults and people with these…

This study tests whether a combination of two drugs (fosrolapitant and palonosetron) can prevent nausea and vomiting in people receiving strong chemotherapy for the first time. About 200 adults with solid tumors will be enrolled. The goal is to see if this treatment helps patient…

This study uses anonymous online questionnaires to find out what the general public and doctors think about robotic surgery, telesurgery, and telemedicine. Researchers want to understand levels of awareness, trust, and concerns, as well as what training doctors feel they need. Th…

This study aims to create and test a scoring system called RTAS to measure how well surgeons perform robotic thyroidectomy, a minimally invasive surgery for thyroid cancer and nodules. Researchers will observe 200 participants undergoing the procedure and track factors like nerve…

This study aims to create a simple tool that helps doctors predict how difficult a specific type of thyroid cancer surgery (called transoral and submental thyroidectomy) will be. Researchers will study 500 patients to find out which factors before surgery make the operation harde…

Researchers are developing a simple tool to predict how difficult a laparoscopic appendectomy (keyhole appendix removal) might be. They will study 500 patients and look at factors like age, weight, and inflammation levels. The goal is to help surgeons prepare better and improve p…

This study involves 300 people with thyroid cancer or benign nodules who need surgery through the mouth or under the chin. Researchers are testing a better way to predict how difficult the surgery will be, which could help doctors train and plan more effectively. The goal is to r…

This study will check how common high cortisol levels (hypercortisolism) are in 500 adults aged 18-80 with type 2 diabetes that is hard to control despite standard treatments. Researchers will also see if cortisol levels in saliva are linked to blood sugar control. The goal is to…

This study looks at how a traumatic brain injury (TBI) can lead to heart problems, a condition called cerebrocardiac syndrome. Researchers will use MRI scans to examine the brains of 90 people with mild to moderate TBI and check their heart health with ECGs, echocardiograms, and …

This study watches blood sugar levels in 100 women getting fertility treatments like IVF. Participants wear a continuous glucose monitor to track sugar changes. The goal is to see if these changes affect pregnancy results. This is an observation-only study, not a treatment.

This study looks at whether an imbalance in gut bacteria is linked to stroke risk and recovery in young adults (ages 18-45). Researchers will analyze stool and blood samples from 60 stroke patients to find patterns that could help predict strokes earlier. The goal is to understan…

This study aims to develop a new, non-invasive way to estimate a patient's blood volume before surgery using ultrasound videos and artificial intelligence. Researchers will record ultrasound clips of major blood vessels from 800 adult patients and use a deep learning model to pre…
