Muscle Response to Different Amounts of Dietary Protein During Leg Immobilization
Individuals who sustain musculoskeletal injuries (MSKI) can experience a rapid loss of muscle mass due to declines in muscle loading and activation that occur post-injury (i.e., disuse atrophy). Loss of muscle under these conditions is attributed to a persistent negative net muscle protein balance (muscle protein synthesis [MPS] < muscle …
A Trial of Setmelanotide in Patients With Congenital Hypothalamic Obesity (Sub-study of NCT05774756)
This is a sub-study of Study RM-493-040 (NCT05774756). The goal of this sub-study is to learn how well Setmelanotide works to improve weight reduction, hunger, and quality of life in patients 4 years of age and older with congenital Hypothalamic Obesity (cHO). To determine how well setmelanotide works and how …

MitoQ for Early-phase Schizophrenia-spectrum Disorder and Mitochondrial Dysfunction
The goal of this double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial is to test the effect of 12 weeks of orally administered MitoQ (mitoquinol mesylate) supplementation on cognition in 50 people with early phase schizophrenia-spectrum disorders (E-SSD) who have mitochondrial dysfunction (called high risk, or HR). Cognitive impairments in SSD can cause …
Mind Body Intervention for Chronic Upper Extremity Pain (Repetitive Stress Injury)
The goal of this nonrandomized pilot study is to test a mind-body interventional approach for the treatment of chronic upper extremity pain or repetitive stress injury of the upper extremity (wrist/shoulder/elbow). To determine if a mind-body intervention improves upper extremity functional capacity (ie., Disability of Arm Shoulder Hand - DASH) …
