Effect of Co-administration of Carbetocin and Calcium Chloride on Uterine Tone in Patients Undergoing Elective Cesarean Delivery
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a leading cause of maternal mortality, and its severity has been increasing globally, including in high-income countries. The most common cause of PPH is uterine atony occurring in about 70% of cases. Uterotonic agents, like oxytocin, are key in managing the third stage of labour to …
The Effect of Dairy Intake on Body Weight and Composition and Metabolic Health in Adolescents and Seniors
The goal of this study is to examine how regular dairy intake affects body weight, body composition, and metabolic health in overweight and prediabetic adolescents (ages 14-17) and older adults (ages 60-75) over a six-month period. We are inviting eligible individuals to participate in this study at the Nutrition Intervention …
AI and Safety in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Today, the majority of gallbladder removals surgeries are done using minimally invasive techniques through small cuts to help patients recover faster. However, these procedures are technically more challenging because surgeons have a restricted view of the patient's anatomy, which can increase the risk of serious complications. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools …
rTMS for Youth Inpatients With Depression
Youth aged 15-24 are likelier to have depression than all age groups in Canada. One-third of depressed youth do not respond to psychotherapy and/or antidepressant medications. A treatment called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation or rTMS has proven helpful in adolescents and young adults whose depressive symptoms have been difficult to …
Combined Gamma Knife/Linac Radiosurgery for Large Brain Tumors / Metastases
When cancer spreads to the brain, doctors often use a precise type of radiation therapy called stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to treat these tumors. This treatment can effectively control brain tumors while helping protect healthy brain tissue. However, when brain tumors or the areas where tumors were surgically removed are larger, …
A Trial of ABSK043, an Oral PD-L1 Inhibitor, in Patients With Angiogenic Sarcomas
ABSK043 is a new type of experimental drug that blocks a protein called programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1), which is important in controlling the body's response to harmful substances including cancer cells. By blocking PD-L1 from working, ABSK043 may allow the body's immune system to recognize and kill cancer …
Evaluating the Use of Educational Videos in Newly Diagnosed Patients in a Medical Oncology Sarcoma Clinic
This study aims to evaluate how sarcoma-specific educational videos improve patients' knowledge of their disease and treatment options before their first clinic appointment. Participants will watch four educational videos before their first appointment with a medical oncologist. Participants will be asked to complete surveys to assess their understanding of sarcoma …

Neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia (NPS) affect up to 80% of patients with Alzheimer's dementia (AD). The mechanisms of agitation in AD are poorly understood and the current interventions are only modestly …
RSV Vaccine in Transplant Recipients
Adjuvant, non-live RSV vaccine will be administered to adult lung and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. The safety and immunogenicity of this intervention will be studied. Blood work will be collected before and after the intervention, to assess humoral and cellular immunity. Participants will be followed for adverse reaction, …
