Prevention of Bleeding in Patients With Moderate and Severe Hemophilia A Playing Sports: A Comparison Between Factor VIII and Emicizumab Prophylaxis
Hemophilia A (HA) is a genetic bleeding disorder resulting from a deficiency or absence of factor VIII (FVIII), which is necessary in the clotting process. This disorder occurs mostly in males and in severe cases causes frequent bleeding episodes in joints and muscles which can lead to progressive damage that …
Does Topical Otic Drop Use at Time of Tympanostomy Tube Surgery Improve Outcomes When no Middle Ear Effusion is Present
To determine whether the use of topical otic drops intra-operative and post-operative during tympanostomy tube placement reduces the rate of tympanostomy tube occlusion and post-operative otorrhea (ear drainage) during the initial 4-week post-operative period in subjects with no middle ear effusion (fluid behind the ear drum) present at the time …
Local Control, Quality of Life and Toxicities in Adults With Benign or Indolent Brain Tumors Undergoing Proton Radiation Therapy
This research study is studying Proton Radiation as a possible treatment for brain tumor. The radiation involved in this study is: -Proton Radiation
Angelman Syndrome Natural History Study
The goal of this study is to conduct a prospective, longitudinal natural history study of children and adults with Angelman Syndrome using investigator-observed and parent-reported outcome measures to obtain data that will be useful for future clinical trials.
Low Intensity Focused Ultrasound Epilepsy: A Pilot Trial
The aim of the proposed pilot study is to investigate patient tolerability and efficacy of moderate term, repeated exposure of Pulsed Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (PLIFUS) in patients with drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy.
Daratumumab, Carfilzomib, Pomalidomide, Dexamethasone In MM
This research study is studying the combination of daratumumab with weekly carfilzomib, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone in people with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma is the condition of returned or previous treatment resistant Multiple Myeloma. This research study involves two study drugs and two standard of …
Endoscopic Ultrasound Shear Wave Elastography in Patients With Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
The goal of this observation study is to assess whether endoscopic ultrasound shear wave elastography (EUS-SWE) may be a useful tool for liver fibrosis screening in patients with elevated body mass index and non alcoholic fatty liver disease as compared to other non-invasive screening modalities, which have traditionally had less …
Noninvasive Brain Stimulation for Treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of tDCS in combination with TUS for the treatment of pain in subjects with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The investigators hypothesize that there will be a decrease in pain levels with active stimulation, when compared to sham stimulation.
Decompression Versus Decompression and Fusion
Adjacent segment disease (ASD) in the lumbar spine is a well-known sequela of lumbar fusion surgery. The annual incidence of adjacent level re-operation is approximately 3% with a ten-year prevalence of 20-30%. Frequently, the surgical treatment involves decompression of the adjacent level coupled with extension of the instrumentation and fusion. …
