Comparative Efficacy of Carbetocin and Oxytocin in Parturients at Risk of Atonic Postpartum Hemorrhage Undergoing Elective Cesarean Delivery
The goal of this study is to compare 2 medications that are commonly used to prevent excess uterine bleeding (postpartum hemorrhage, or PPH) following cesarean delivery (CD), oxytocin and carbetocin. Most of the trials evaluating the preventative role of oxytocin and carbetocin after CD have focused on patient with low-risk …
Effect of Hi-OxSR for the Treatment of Post COVID Condition
The RECLAIM study platform will be used to explore whether the use of the Hi-OxSR device improves the symptoms of post covid cognitive dysfunction. Carbon dioxide (CO2) has been proposed as a potential treatment for persistent immune activation as there is evidence that CO2 has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cytokine effects. …
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 …
The HEROES Trial: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Endometriosis-Related Pain
Endometriosis, is a condition where tissue from the uterus, called endometrium, grows outside of the uterus. This effects up to 10% of women, and can lead to long-lasting, moderate to severe pelvic pain, infertility and other symptoms. This can affect a woman's quality of life (including increased risk of depression …
Mood And Kids diEt (MAKE-It) Pilot Trial
This study is being done to examine the feasibility, including recruitment, retention and acceptability of a randomized controlled trial of a personalized dietary intervention in adolescents with depression. Evidence suggests that dietary quality may affect an individual's mood. A healthy diet includes vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds, and olive oil, as …
Narrative Enhancement and Cognitive Therapy for Self-Stigma in Youth
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to assess the feasibility of conducting a full-scale study to learn if a new youth-adapted Narrative Enhancement and Cognitive Therapy (NECT-Y) reduces self-stigma in youth living with bipolar disorder or multiple mental health conditions. The main questions it aims to answer are: …
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 …
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 …
