Using Non-invasive Brain Stimulation to Treat Word Finding Difficulty in Chronic Traumatic Brain Injury
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how brain stimulation affects word finding problems in people who have a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The type of brain stimulation used is called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). tDCS delivers low levels of electric current to the brain and …
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 …
Brain Networks in Dystonia
To date, there is only limited knowledge about the distinct neural abnormalities that lead to the development of different forms of focal dystonia. The goal of this study is to dissect the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying this clinical phenomenon using multi-level brain network analysis in patients with focal dystonia.
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 …
Foundational Programs to Combat Clinician Stress
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial in which clinicians from University of Pennsylvania Health Systems (UPHS) including Penn Medicine- Lancaster General Health (LGH) and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) are offered a well-known program to help reduce clinician burnout: Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY) Breathing and Sahaj Meditation Intervention.
Feasibility Testing of the "Face-Forward-Web" Program for Chronic Orofacial Pain
The goal of this study is to conduct a feasibility open pilot study (N=Up to 20) with exit interviews to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and credibility of the study protocol and Face-Forward-Web; a web-based mind-body intervention for adult patients with COP. Deliverables: [1] Adapt and refine open pilot protocol, patient …
Proof-of-concept Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacodynamics, and Pharmacokinetics of SION-719 When Added to Trikafta
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of SION-719 when given to people with CF who are already taking Trikafta.
Precision Biomarkers to Detect Brain Injury in Active-Duty United States Special Operations Forces With Repeated Blast Exposure
This is a 4-year, longitudinal study of 100 active-duty Navy SEALs. The goal of the study is to determine whether repeated blast exposure affects SEAL brain health and to develop an initial diagnostic testing protocol that detects repeated blast brain injury.
Mind-body Resilience Program for Cardiac Arrest Survivors and Their Caregivers: Recovering Together After Cardiac Arrest
The purpose of this study is to pilot two resilience interventions for cardiac arrest survivors and their informal caregivers, Recovering Together after Cardiac Arrest 1 and Recovering Together after Cardiac Arrest 2 . The data the investigators gather in this study will be used to further refine the interventions.
A Study of Talazoparib With or Without Enzalutamide in People With Prostate Cancer Who Have Previously Received Abiraterone Acetate
The purpose of this study is to find out whether talazoparib in combination with enzalutamide or talazoparib alone delays cancer progression in people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have homologous recombination repair (HRR) mutations and have previously received abiraterone acetate.
