RCT of Mind-body in Long COVID and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis
We are studying the effect of a mind-body treatment for people with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) with or without Long COVID (LC). Our team recognizes that ME/CFS and Long COVID are serious, debilitating, biomedical conditions. ME/CFS can affect many different parts of the body, such as the nervous system, …
Testing the Effects of Novel Therapeutics for Newly Diagnosed, Untreated Patients With High-Risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia (A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial)
This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial tests whether the standard approach of cytarabine and daunorubicin in comparison to the following experimental regimens works to shrink cancer in patients with high risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML): 1) daunorubicin and cytarabine liposome alone; 2) cytarabine and daunorubicin with venetoclax; 3) azacitidine and …
The Effect of Targeting the Plantaris Muscle-tendon in Surgical Correction of Ankle Equinus in Children
Tight ankle muscles can produce ankle equinus (limited ability to pull the foot upward) and occur often in children, significantly impacting their ability to walk. If not treated, children with ankle equinus frequently experience reduced function and long-term foot problems, such as pain. Currently, treatment options include surgery or Botulinum …
Study of Natriuretic Peptide Receptor 1 (NPR1) Antagonist in Adult Patients With Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
This study is researching an experimental drug called REGN7544 (called "study drug"). The study is focused on participants with POTS. The aim of the study is to see how safe, tolerable, and effective the study drug is. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: How the study …
LoW Dose-Intensity vs. Standard Dose-Intensity COntinuous Renal ReplaceMent Therapy in Critically Ill Patients (WISDOM)
An estimated 10-15% of critically ill patients with acute kidney failure in the intensive care unit receive acute dialysis therapy. The majority of these patients initially receive a continuous form of dialysis therapy call continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Prior studies have suggested that higher CRRT dose-intensity improved health outcomes …
Middle Cerebral Artery Aneurysm Trial
Intracranial aneurysms located on the middle cerebral artery (MCA) are considered by many surgeons to represent a distinct subgroup of aneurysms for which clipping may still be the best management option. Most MCA aneurysms are accessible, proximal control can readily be secured in case of rupture, and clip application can …
SiFi vs FNB Local Anesthesia for Hip Fracture Surgeries
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two commonly used local/regional anesthesia techniques in adults patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • the impact of both interventions on patient level of pain. • impact on postoperative analgesics administered Participants will be …
Ketorolac at Lower Doses for Analgesic Pain Control in ICU: A Pilot Feasibility Study
Opiates are commonly used to control pain in critically ill patients in the ICU. However, increased rates of opiate use in hospital may lead to increased prescription-based opiate dependence after leaving the ICU. This may contribute to the ongoing opiate epidemic across the world. Other medications that can reduce pain, …
Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation for Upper Extremity Function
Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (tcES) of the spinal cord has shown great promise in restoring upper extremity function after spinal cord injury (SCI). More recently, the use of invasive, epidural electrical stimulation of the spinal cord has also demonstrated promise in restoring upper extremity function post-stroke. However, the effect of stimulation …
IMPACT: IMplementation of Physical Activity for Children and Adolescents on Treatment
Physical activity can enhance well-being among youth diagnosed with oncological or hematological diseases. We developed a tailored, 1:1, online physical activity program (i.e., IMPACT), to promote physical activity in this cohort. The proposed single-group, mixed-methods project will assess the effect of IMPACT and explore markers of implementation.
