The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if short-course radiation therapy (SCRT) can effectively treat high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) and if active surveillance is a safe alternative to radiation for moderate-risk cSCC in adults with head and neck cSCC who have undergone surgery. The main questions …
Introduction: Sedentary behavior (SB) and insufficient physical activity (PA) interact to worsen physical fitness (PF), obesity-related complications and diseases (ORCD), and all-cause mortality in women with obesity. Replacing SB with low-intensity PA may improve PF and ameliorate ORCD, with potential lasting effects after bariatric surgery (BS). However, strong evidence on …
Anxiety associated with medical procedures is common, with 40-80% of children experiencing significant symptoms and postoperative consequences, including distress and delirium, increased intensity/duration of pain, prolonged hospital stays, behavioural/sleep disturbance and avoidance of medical encounters, which often remain into adulthood. Extensive consumer research has shown that a key priority for …
This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effect of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted respiratory training on fatigue, pain, and respiratory parameters in patients after open heart surgery.
This is a Phase 2, dose-ranging, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, randomized study preceded by an open label safety run-in, in patients at high risk for Cardiac Surgery Associated - Acute Kidney Injury (CSA-AKI) following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), valve surgery, aortic surgery, or a combination of the above, involving cardiopulmonary …
This phase II trial tests compares the effect of progestins, megestrol acetate to micronized progesterone, in treating patients with endometrial cancer and precancers of the uterus (atypical endometrial hyperplasia) before surgery. Progestins, similar to the natural hormone progesterone, are approved drugs used in birth control and hormone replacement pills, and …
Postinduction hypotension is a frequent intraoperative complication, particularly in emergency abdominal surgery due to factors such as sepsis, hypovolemia, and limited preoperative cardiac assessment. Because it can lead to serious organ injury, prompt prevention and management are essential. Vasopressors, including ephedrine, phenylephrine, and norepinephrine, are commonly used, with NE gaining …
The FINDISC trial studies whether common back operation, microdiscectomy, is effective and safe for treating sciatica caused by a lumbar disc herniation. The study includes people whose leg pain has not improved after at least six weeks of non-surgical treatment. The FINDISC trial aims to recruit and randomly allocate 122 …
To evaluate the real-world effectiveness and implementation strategies for mPATH-Lung, investigators propose a pragmatic, randomized controlled trial across an academic Learning Health System. The trial will contrast several approaches to participant outreach and will specifically target engaging fully powered cohorts of racial/ethnic minorities and rural residents.
This early phase I trial tests the safety and side effects of dapagliflozin given prior to surgery in patients with stage IA lung adenocarcinoma. Dapagliflozin is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of diabetes and heart failure. It is an SGLT2 inhibitor. Stage I lung …
