Natural History Study of Patients With Succinic Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase (SSADH) Deficiency
Succinic Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase deficiency (SSADHD) is a rare autosomal recessive disease that interferes with the catabolism of the major inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) and furthermore leads to accumulation of various potential toxic metabolites, most prominently gamma hydroxybutyric acid (GHB). Current research indicates that there is developmental delay and …
Passive Sensor Identification of Digital Biomarkers to Assess Effects of Orally Administered Nicotinamide Riboside
This project's main goal is to use state-of-the-art passive sensing techniques to identify digital biomarkers that relate to bioenergetic changes in the brain due to nicotinamide riboside supplementation in those with mild cognitive impairment and mild Alzheimer's dementia.
The Use of High Bile-binding Foods to Reduce Upper Gastrointestinal Bile Acid Concentrations (Aim 1)
We will perform an acute physiology study comparing three different diets-an amino acid-based formula, a low bile acid-binding blenderized diet, or a high bile acid-binding blenderized diet administered through gastrostomy tube. We will determine the differences in gastric and salivary bile acid concentrations between participants over the 4 hour post-prandial …
Diagnosing Epilepsy To EffeCT Change Long-Term Follow-Up
The purpose of this research is to address the challenges of correctly monitoring, managing, and diagnosing epilepsy in participants whose seizures are not well captured by standard electroencephalography (EEG) tests and who cannot use or are not able to use more standard monitoring techniques. This research is being done to …
Intravenous Oxytocin for Post Operative Pain After Minimally Invasive Hysterectomy
This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial to compare the effectiveness of IV oxytocin infusion to placebo on peri-operative opioid consumption and reducing post-operative pain following a minimally invasive hysterectomy under general anesthesia.
A Study of CDX-622 in Participants With Mild to Moderate Asthma
This is a study to determine the safety, pharmacodynamics (PD), and pharmacokinetics (PK) of CDX-622 in adults with mild to moderate asthma.
Targeted Accelerated TMS for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a highly prevalent and debilitating condition among veterans and active-duty military personnel, with rates as high as 30% in certain combat-exposed populations. Conventional treatments such as prolonged exposure therapy and pharmacotherapy have limited efficacy and high dropout rates, highlighting the need for novel, rapidly effective …
Researching Heat and Yoga for Mood Enhancement
This study will examine how doing heated yoga or non-heated yoga affects depression.
Trans-nasal Endoscopy for Bariatric Patients
This study plans to learn if the EvoEndo Endoscopy system can be used to evaluate, provide and follow up care for upper gastrointestinal tract diseases in the bariatric population. The smallest current scope available for such a technique is an adult transnasal endoscope with a larger diameter, a pulmonary bronchoscope …
Endovascular Repair With Fenestrated TREO Stent-Graft System in AAA
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the Fenestrated TREO Stent-Graft System works to treat abdominal aneurysms in adults. An abdominal aneurysm is a bulge in the main blood vessel (the aorta) which carries blood from the heart, through the chest and abdomen. It will also learn …
