The Effects of General Versus Spinal Anesthesia on Postoperative Myocardial Injury
In this prospective, randomized, single-blind study, we aim to compare the effects of general anesthesia and spinal anesthesia on postoperative myocardial injury in elderly patients undergoing hip surgery. Cardiovascular events are a leading cause of mortality and morbidity following non-cardiac surgery, with myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) being a …

Segmentectomy After Induction Therapy (SAINT)
The primary objective will be to determine the feasibility of performing a high-quality sublobar anatomic resection (segmentectomy) with R0 margin status on final pathology for patients who received induction therapy for NSCLC and are downstaged to ≤ycT1cN0M0 (TDi 3cm or less). T1c is tumor staging 1 and c stands for …
Evaluating the Efficacy of Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) for Erectile Dysfunction
There is great interest in restorative therapies (platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, shockwave therapy and stem cell therapy) for ED given their non-invasive nature. However, data is still limited and requires further research prior to widespread adoption. Unfortunately, therapies such as PRP injections are being widely used without clinical evidence demonstrating …
Medically Tailored Meals for Cardiovascular Health
This randomized clinical trial (RCT) will investigate novel approaches to enhance effectiveness, engagement, reach, and cost-effectiveness of medically tailored meals (MTM) programs for promoting cardiovascular health, focusing on economically disadvantaged New York City neighborhoods with a disparate burden of multiple cardiometabolic diseases. The main questions the RCT aims to answer …

Noninvasive Vagal Nerve Stimulation
Growing evidence suggests that vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) may be novel and effective in the management of the symptom burden of multiple sclerosis (MS) potentially by reducing inflammation and emotional distress, therefore improving overall well-being. We will complete a pilot study comparing transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) and transcutaneous …
Laparoscopic Right Hemicolectomy With Transrectal Specimen Extraction for Colon Cancer
The purpose of this study is to investigate the preliminary surgical outcomes of laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with transrectal specimen extraction. The hypothesis is that this type of natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES) could achieve good short-term and oncological outcomes for right colon cancer patients.
