Multimodal Musical Stimulation for Healthy Neurocognitive Aging
This is a Stage I randomized, sham-controlled trial on the effects of multimodal musical stimulation on working memory in aging. Neurologically healthy older and younger adults will be tested on working memory and electroencephalography in the first randomized controlled trial of music as a form of brain stimulation, with multimodal …
Interstage Monitoring Using an Implantable Loop Recorder: A Pilot Study
The primary objective of this investigation is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of implantable loop recorder implantation (using the LUX-DX™) in newborns undergoing stage 1 palliation. The secondary objective of the investigation is to evaluate the feasibility of continuous measurement of heart rate and arrhythmia using an implantable loop …
Mindfulness-Based fMRI Neurofeedback for Depression
In the United States, adolescents experience alarmingly high rates of major depression, and gold-standard treatments are only effective for approximately half of patients. Rumination may be a promising treatment target, as it is well-characterized at the neural level and contributes to depression onset, maintenance, and recurrence as well as predicts …
Trial of Variable Dialysate Bicarbonate
QTc prolongation and premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are common in hemodialysis (HD) patients and are associated with sudden cardiac death. It is known that higher dialysate bicarbonate is associated with more QTc prolongation during HD sessions. This study aims to assess the effects of lower (30 mEq/L) versus higher (35 …
AAA-SHAPE Pivotal Trial: Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Sac Healing and Prevention of Expansion
To determine the safety and effectiveness of IMPEDE-FX RapidFill to increase the percentage of subjects with shrinkage of the abdominal aortic aneurysm sac when used as an adjunct to on-label endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) stent graft treatment in trial subjects considered candidates for elective EVAR.
Use of Ketosis in Modulating Metabolic Pathways in Bipolar Disorder
The goal of this clinical trial is to test how specific components of diet affect brain function and behavior for individuals with bipolar. The main question it aims to answer is how glucose and ketones each affect the brain's response to risk and reward. Participants will be asked to provide …
Transplantation of Autologously Derived Mitochondria Following Ischemia
The investigators propose a robust therapeutic intervention to ameliorate myocardial ischemia/ reperfusion injury and significantly decrease morbidity and mortality in patients requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), by direct injection of autogeneic mitochondria into the ischemic myocardium.
Type 1 Diabetes Management Using a Very Low Carbohydrate Versus Standard Diet
Despite major technological advances, management of type one diabetes mellitus (T1D) remains suboptimal, putting millions of people at risk for immediate and long-term complications. After meals, a mismatch between carbohydrate absorption rate and insulin action typically leads to alternating periods of hyper- and hypoglycemia. A conceptually promising approach to control …
Improving Preschool Outcomes by Addressing Maternal Depression in Head Start
Within a research network of Head Start centers in Massachusetts, an efficacy trial of a stepped-care intervention (SCI) to address maternal depression, using intervention components that both prevent depression and help those in major depressive episode (MDE) engage with care, will be conducted. Both the prevention and engagement components of …
DCSZ11 as a Monotherapy and in Combination in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors
This is a multicenter, open-label, Phase 1 study to assess the effects of DCSZ11, an anti-CD93 monoclonal antibody, as a monotherapy and in combination in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
