Pridopidine Phase 3 Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety in ALS
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the drug pridopidine works to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in adults. It will also help to learn about the safety of pridopidine. The main question it aims to answer is: Does pridopidine slow disease progression of ALS? Researchers will compare …
Helping Couples Communicate Better: Does This Help Persons With Type 2 Diabetes Respond Better to a Step Count Prescription?
Being active is one way to reach better blood sugar control and heart health in type 2 diabetes. The investigators developed a strategy to help people with type 2 diabetes walk more. They track their steps with a step counter and set targets with their doctor through a kind of …
LSM and SSM for the Diagnosis of CSPH: a Prospective Cohort Study
The goal of this observational study is to assess non-invasive tools' efficacy in predicting portal hypertension-related complications in individuals with advanced chronic liver disease. The main question it aims to answer are: \- what are the cut-off values for non-invasive tests (NITs) (including LSM, SSM) that predict the presence and …
Protecting the Brain From Post-Stroke Cognitive Impairment and Dementia With Multimodal Exercise Training
The rates of cognitive decline and dementia after stroke are disproportionately high. Strategies that can protect the brain early after the stroke event could reduce the future risk of cognitive decline and dementia in these patients. Although physical exercise is usually recommended after stroke, there is very little information about …
The Role of Cognition in Motor Learning After Stroke
Stroke leads to lasting problems in using the upper limb (UL) for everyday life activities. While rehabilitation programs depend on motor learning, UL recovery is less than ideal. Implicit learning is thought to lead to better outcomes than explicit learning. Cognitive factors (e.g., memory, attention, perception), essential to implicit motor …
Micro-UltraSound In Cancer - Active Surveillance
This study will compare the two imaging modalities (MRI and micro-ultrasound) during Active Surveillance of prostate cancer (PCa). Progression to clinically significant PCa will be assessed by first taking micro-US targeted samples (while blinded to MRI results), followed by MRI targeted samples, finishing with 12 systematic biopsy cores. The primary …
GRID Therapy as Palliative Radiation for Patients With Advanced and Symptomatic Tumors
Palliative radiation therapy represents 40% of the on-going radiation at the Jewish General Hospital. In a traditional palliative radiation treatment to bulky or radioresistant tumors, radiotherapy schema varies from 24 to 30 Gys given in 3 to 10 fractions, depending on the tumor size, tumor location and tumor pathology. However, …
Impact of Vitamin C on opioïd Consumption After an Emergency Department Visit for Acute Musculoskeletal Pain
Recent evidence has shown that vitamin C has some analgesic properties and can therefore reduce opioids used during healing. Vitamin C analgesic effect has been explored mostly during the short-term postoperative context or in disease specific chronic pain prevention but not after acute musculoskeletal injuries, which are often seen in …
Cranial Nerve Neuromodulation to Improve Arm Function and Brain Plasticity in Stroke
Following a stroke, persistent residual muscle weakness in the upper limb (UL) drastically impacts the individuals' quality of life and level of independence. Training interventions are recommended to promote UL motor recovery, and recent studies have shown that training must be tailored to each individual's recovery potential to maximise training …
A Research Study of a Potential New Medicine (NNC4005-0001) for Liver Disease in Adult Participants With Increased Body Weight and Liver Fat
The purpose of this clinical study is to find out if NNC4005-0001 is well-tolerated and safe for people who have increased body weight and increased liver fat. Participants will receive either NNC4005-0001, which is the treatment being tested, or a placebo, which is a treatment that contains no active medicine. …
