This pilot study tests whether a weekly diabetes medication (GLP-1RA) can improve gum health in people with both periodontitis and type 2 diabetes. Researchers will measure changes in gum pocket depth, bleeding, and tooth mobility in 30 adults. Results will help design a larger, …

This study tests a temporary scaffold system to open blocked leg arteries in people with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), a severe form of peripheral artery disease. The device is removed after treatment, and a drug-coated balloon is used to keep the artery open. The stu…

This study tests a device called AAJT-S that is designed to stop severe bleeding in the torso or lower body after a traumatic injury. The device works by blocking blood flow below the waist, which can help stabilize patients in the emergency room or even before they reach the hos…

This study looks at whether a 12-week exercise program can improve how well immunotherapy works in people with non-small cell lung cancer. One hundred participants will either do moderate or high-intensity interval cycling, or receive standard exercise advice. Researchers will me…

This study will test a new blood test (liquid biopsy) to see if it can find and track testicular cancer in 200 men. Half have early-stage cancer and half have cancer that has spread. The test looks for cancer DNA in the blood, which may help doctors monitor the disease, especiall…

This study looks at whether interacting with horses can help people who feel stressed. About 123 adults with high stress will either spend time with horses, observe nature, or be in a control group. Researchers will measure heart rate and mood changes to see if horse time helps p…
