Concurrent Versus Sequential Administration of Tdap and RSV Vaccines in Pregnancy
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the RSV vaccine (protects against respiratory syncytial virus) and Tdap vaccine (protects against pertussis) are most effective in pregnant individuals when taken together at the same visit, or separately at different visits. This clinical trial will also learn about the …
Bootle Blast: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
One in 500 Canadians has cerebral palsy (CP), a lifelong condition affecting movement and function. Physical and occupational therapies greatly benefit children with CP but can be costly and difficult to access. Children, parents, and clinicians are interested in using movement-tracking video games for home-based hand/arm therapy. Yet, the technologies …
Suitability of a 26 °C Indoor Environment for Mitigating Heat Strain in Young Adults
While an indoor upper temperature limit of 26 °C has been shown to protect heat-vulnerable older adults (DOI: 10.1289/EHP11651), this guideline has not been verified in young, habitually active adults. Public health recommendations during hot weather typically emphasize staying in cool environments, avoiding strenuous activity, wearing lightweight clothing, and maintaining …
Impact of Indoor Overheating on Physiological Strain in Children
Communities worldwide are experiencing increasing heat extremes that challenge the limits of human thermoregulation, particularly among vulnerable populations such as children. Compared with adults, children are more susceptible to heat related illness due to less efficient thermoregulatory systems and difficulty recognizing early signs of heat stress. In addition, prolonged heat …
Safe Effective Therapy With Low-Dose Glucocorticoid in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis (SAFE-LOW)
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of a therapeutic regimen consisting of 4 weeks of glucocorticoids given with a combination of the usual induction agents for ANCA-associated vasculitis.

TRIple Negative Breast Cancer Markers In Liquid Biopsies Using Artificial Intelligence
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive of breast cancers and it is usually treated with chemotherapy even before surgery. In many cases, the chemotherapy completely "melts" the tumor and these patients do well. When the tumor is not eliminated by the chemotherapy, the patient receive more chemotherapy …
Suitability of the 26 °C Indoor Temperature Upper Limit for Older Adults: Impacts of Clothing and Daily Activity
While an upper limit of 26°C has been shown to be protective for heat-vulnerable older occupants (DOI: 10.1289/EHP11651), this recommendation did not consider the added heat burden associated with increases in internal heat production accompanying activities of daily living or the restriction to heat loss caused by clothing insulation. To …
A Study to Evaluate ALN-5288 in Patients With Alzheimer's Disease
The purpose of this study is to: Evaluate the safety and tolerability of intrathecal (IT) ALN-5288 in patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) Evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) and pharmacokinetic (PK) effects of ALN-5288 after dose administration
Smartphone vs Manual Interpretation of Biomarkers for Ovulation and Luteal Phase Detection (SMOM Study)
This study will compare different combinations of fertility signs (cervical mucus (CM), luteinizing hormone \[LH\], pregnanediol glucuronide \[PDG\], and basal body temperature \[BBT\]) to determine which are most reliable for identifying ovulation and luteal phase length. Thirty existing Premom App users will track daily observations for three menstrual cycles. Participants …
