qEEG Brain Signature of Depression & Neuromodulation-induced Recovery
This study aims to explore how repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a treatment for depression, affects brain function. Depression disrupts the brain's complex network or regions that regulate cognition, emotion, and behavior. rTMS targets these disruptions to restore network function. To measure these effects, researchers will use dry quantitative EEG …
Infrared Light for Memory Loss in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a transitional risk state that occurs between the normal aging process and Alzheimer's dementia (AD). On average 32% of patients with MCI will progress to dementia, 62% will stay stable, and about 6% will return to normal cognition at subsequent visits. Current treatment for MCI …
Parathyroid Allotransplant for Severe Refractory Hypoparathyroidism
Hypoparathyroidism following thyroid surgery presents significant challenges, often leading to debilitating symptoms and reduced quality of life despite conventional treatment. Having now reported the first successful case of a deceased donor fresh tissue parathyroid allotransplant with immunosuppression in a transplant-naive recipient, the purpose of this study is to further assess …
Investigating the Effects of Nabilone on Endocannabinoid Metabolism
The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of a cannabis-like substance, nabilone, on the levels of endocannabinoid enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) in brain of healthy individuals. Using magnetic resonance imagine (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET), the main questions we aim to answer are: …
Benefits of Choir for Older Adults with Unaddressed Hearing Loss (WP2)
Unaddressed age-related hearing loss is highly prevalent among older adults, typified by negative consequences for speech-in-noise perception and psychosocial wellbeing. There is promising evidence that group singing may enhance speech-in-noise perception and psychosocial wellbeing. However, there is a lack of robust evidence, primarily due to the literature being based on …
Comparison of Dairy and Plant-based Alternatives in Adolescents and Older Adults
The purpose of the Dairy vs Plant study is to compare the effects of dairy and plant-based alternative products on blood sugar regulation and nutrient quality in adolescents and older adults. We are inviting healthy, non-diabetic participants aged 14-18 and 60-75, both males and females to participate. The study will …
Combined and Separate Effects of Cannabis and Tobacco: Psychomotor, Subjective and Physiological Outcomes
Co-administration of cannabis and tobacco is a common practice, but there is little experimental evidence aimed at understanding the reasons for this prevalence. Some preliminary evidence suggests that tobacco may actually counteract the cognitive-impairing effects of cannabis, and may also increase the subjective ('liking') effects of cannabis, but results are …
Influence of Menstrual Cycle Phase on Adaptations to Sprint Interval Training
Sprint interval training improves endurance performance and induces metabolic adaptations in muscle. Most research demonstrating these responses has been conducted in males, with limited studies evaluating changes to endurance performance and skeletal muscle oxidative capacity in females. Moreover, it is currently unknown if training in specific phases of the menstrual …
A Study of High Dose Radiation Therapy for Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer That Responded to Initial Chemotherapy Treatment
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of high-dose radiation therapy after initial chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer. The main question it aims to answer is: • For patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that responded to initial chemotherapy (stayed stable or decreased …
GMEB-SASS: A Gene-Modified Skin Substitute for RDEB Treatment
This study is being done to find out if a new type of skin graft, called GMEB-SASS, is safe and effective for helping wounds heal in people with RDEB (Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa). The GMEB-SASS graft contains two types of living skin cells: keratinocytes and fibroblasts. It is made in …
