Post-Procedural Manual Manipulation for Infant Ankyloglossia
The goal of this randomized control trial is to determine the impact of post-frenotomy manual manipulation on revision rates and breastfeeding outcomes. We hypothesize that post-frenotomy manipulation will reduce the rate of sublingual frenulum regrowth, and subsequently frenotomy revision rates, thereby improving breastfeeding performance. Infants with ankyloglossia undergoing frenotomy will …
QuantifyHER: Quantitative Immunofluorescence and/or RT-qPCR for Measuring HER2 in HER2-low Metastatic Breast Cancer
This study will assess whether a quantitative, HER2 assay can accurately and reliably discriminate between responders and non-responders among patients with HER2 IHCI+ metastatic breast cancer who are receiving T-Dxd.
Functional Neuroimaging to Detect the Neural Signatures of the Unpleasantness of Pain and Effort
Background The way the brain processes rewards and punishments may play a role in some disorders of the nervous system. People with chronic overlapping pain conditions (such as myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome \[ME/CFS\]) may have heightened responses to unpleasant, punishing sensations. Some of these conditions may also cause heightened responses …
Individualized Nutrition to Optimize Preterm Infant Growth and Neurodevelopment
Human milk has several well-established benefits but does not adequately meet the increased nutritional demands of the growing preterm infant, necessitating additional nutrient supplementation in a process known as fortification. In U.S. neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), human milk is primarily supplemented using standardized fortification, in which a multicomponent fortifier …
A Study of Vedolizumab With Tofacitinib in Adults With Ulcerative Colitis (UC)
The main aim of this study is to learn about the effect of treatment with vedolizumab IV (vedolizumab) together with tofacitinib in adults with moderate and severe ulcerative colitis (UC). Another aim is to learn about treatment with Vedolizumab alone after the double treatment. All participants will receive vedolizumab together …
EMAGINE 2.0 - Electromagnetic Field Ischemic Stroke - Novel Subacute Treatment
This is a multicenter study that will be conducted at approximately 20 centers and up to 30 centers, if the sample size will be increased following interim assessment. The Q Therapeutic System (BQ 3.0) is a wearable medical device that produces and delivers non-invasive, extremely-low-intensity and low-frequency, frequency-tuned electromagnetic fields …
Uncovering Genes Behind Cartilage Tumors and Vascular Anomalies Using Genomic Sequencing
Background Ollier disease (OD) and Maffucci syndrome (MS) are rare disorders that increase the risk of cancers in cartilage tissue. These tumors can lead to severe skeletal deformities beginning in childhood. People with OD or MS are also at an increased risk of blood vessel disorders and specific cancers. Researchers …
A Prospective Natural History and Outcome Measure Validation Study of Congenital Myasthenic Syndromes
Background Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMSs) are a group of inherited disorders that affect how the nerves communicate with muscles. These can cause many problems that affect how people can move and use their bodies. Objective This is a natural history study to learn more about how CMSs affect the body …
Predicting Future Errors During Skill Performance
Background Many tasks people do every day require a series of individual movements. Control over these movements is called motor skills. But even highly skilled people can make mistakes. Researchers have found that they can predict when a person will make a mistake 0.1 second before it happens. Now, they …
Human Milk Oligosaccharide-Based Synbiotic Supplement for Intestinal Microbiota Dysbiosis
Background Human intestines are home to a complex gut flora, also called microbiome; this is a natural occurring community of bacteria, fungi, yeast, and viruses. Changes in the balances of the gut flora can lead to illnesses, such as diabetes, colorectal cancer, and inflammatory bowel diseases. Synbiotics are dietary supplements …
