Evaluation of an Advanced Lower Extremity Neuroprostheses
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a surgically implanted functional electrical stimulation (FES) system to facilitate exercise, standing, stepping and/or balance in people with various degrees of paralysis.
Repeat Breast Conserving Surgery Followed by Daily Partial Breast Irradiation in Ipsilateral Breast
The standard treatment for participants whose cancer has returned after breast conserving surgery is radiation given twice daily (separated by at least 6 hours) for a total of 30 treatments. The purpose of this study is to find out if giving radiation once a day for 15 treatments after repeat …
Promoting Alternatives to Sulfonylureas to Improve Patient Safety in Type 2 Diabetes
Sulfonylurea medications are unsafe for older patients with diabetes. They are associated not only with hypoglycemia, but also with falls and increased cardiovascular risk. Yet they continue to be prescribed frequently. Indeed, older adults with type 2 diabetes, who are especially prone to adverse effects, are more likely to be …
Study of ADI-PEG 20 or Placebo Plus Gem and Doc in Previously Treated Subjects With Leiomyosarcoma (ARGSARC)
To compare the efficacy and safety in subjects with advanced or metastatic LMS previously treated with an anthracycline.
Outpatient Antibiotics Following Previable Rupture of Membranes (pPPROM) Between 18 0/7 and 22 6/7 Weeks Gestational Age
A randomized, controlled, non-placebo trial to primarily assess the effect of oral, outpatient antibiotics (i.e., azithromycin and amoxicillin) on latency (i.e., proportion of patients that deliver within 28 days from membrane rupture) following previable, prelabor rupture of membranes between 18 0/7 and 22 6/7 weeks gestational age.
tDCS + CCFES-mediated Functional Task Practice for Post-stroke Upper Extremity Hemiplegia
After a stroke, it is very common to lose the ability to open the affected hand. Occupational and physical rehabilitation therapy (OT and PT) combined with non-invasive brain stimulation may help a person recover hand movement. The purpose of this study is to compare 3 non-invasive brain stimulation protocols combined …
Deep Brain Stimulation for Visuomotor Function in Parkinson's Disease
Inability to align and refocus the eyes on the objects at different depths, i.e., vergence impairment, frequently affects the quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease. Our study aims to understand the location-specific effects of subthalamic region deep brain stimulation on vergence by integrating the patient-specific deep brain stimulation …
Feasibility of Early Gabapentin as an Intervention for Neurorecovery
The objective of the proposed study is to conduct the first ever prospective, dose-exploration trial to test the feasibility of early administration of gabapentin as an intervention for neurorecovery. This research project falls under the Intervention Development stage of research as the primary goal is to assess the feasibility of …
Patient Recall After Orthopedic Trauma
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether receiving education after trauma surgeries affects three things: 1) knowledge about injury and treatment ("recall"), 2) how well patients follow treatment recommendations, and 3) how satisfied patients are with their care. To do so, some participants in this study will receive …
Brain Connectivity Changes With Spinal Cord Stimulation and Treatment of Chronic Pain: A Resting State NIRS/EEG Study
This study aims to assess how use of spinal cord stimulation for the treatment of chronic pain impacts brain structure and function. The investigators will use a non-invasive neuroimaging technique called resting state Near Infrared Spectroscopy and Electroencephalography (rs-fNIRS/EEG). The investigators will enroll Veterans who are currently receiving care at …
