This study looks at whether eating more protein (25% of daily calories) helps children aged 7-14 with overweight or obesity lose more weight than a lower-protein diet. Over 10 weeks, kids follow a calorie-restricted diet and exercise program, then are followed for a year. The goa…

This study looks at whether a simple blood test that checks for circulating tumor DNA can help decide who really needs a colonoscopy after a diverticulitis attack. About 220 participants will give a blood sample and then have a colonoscopy as usual. Researchers will compare the b…

This study tests whether 6 months of supervised strength exercises can improve hip-related quality of life more than standard care in people with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). 120 adults aged 18-50 with hip pain will be randomly assigned to either a guided exercis…

This study compares two treatments for severe shoulder arthritis: total shoulder replacement surgery followed by rehab, versus a 12-week exercise program. About 100 adults aged 55-85 who are candidates for surgery will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups. The goal is to…

This study tests a program in a newborn intensive care unit (NICU) that helps nurses and staff better understand each other's skills and abilities. The goal is to improve teamwork, reduce burnout, and make sure tasks are shared fairly. About 160 nurses will take part, and researc…

This study looks at whether a simple blood test can find tiny bits of cancer DNA left in the body after colorectal cancer surgery. The goal is to identify patients at high risk of the cancer coming back, so doctors can adjust treatment early. Over 3,000 participants are being fol…

This study looks at 67 people in Denmark who had early-stage colorectal cancer removed during a colonoscopy or minor surgery. Doctors often recommend more surgery because of certain risk factors, but only about 15% actually have leftover cancer. The researchers are testing a bloo…
