Acceptability of Folic Acid and Vitamin B12 Fortified Meals
Evaluation of sensory acceptability of fortified products prior to distribution is essential. We aim to evaluate whether fortification affects sensory qualities and whether these are acceptable to rural communities. Standard meals will be prepared using unfortified and fortified-flour with folic acid and vitamin B12. Preference and triangle tests will be …
Musculoskeletal and Pelvic Floor Health in Female Chronic Overlapping Pelvic Pain Conditions
The purpose of this study is to learn about nerve function and pelvic muscle function. To do this we will compare the pelvic nerve and muscle function of women with chronic pelvic pain to those who do not have chronic pelvic pain. Understanding the pain may lead to better treatments …

Imaging endolymphatic hydrops with 7T Sodium Imaging and 1.5 T gadolinium enhanced imaging: a comparison of diagnostic outcomes with 3T MRI Duration of study 24 months Study design Prospective cohort study Number of patients 16 patients To evaluate whether imaging both 1.5T and 3T have an equivalent performance in terms …
Study of Thermoregulation in Exercise Heat Stroke in the Military Environment
The EXPLO-MITO study is an ancillary study from the main EXPLO-CCE study (NCT04593316; IDRCB: 2020-A01967-32). The Heat Tolerance Test (HTT) is a physiological exploration that has several advantages for use in research and clinical settings. Unlike the walk-run test, it is performed under controlled conditions, both environmentally (temperature control, humidity, …
Identification of Circulating microRNAs in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the expression of a large panel of microRNAs, already known and validated in other ortopedic pathologies and bone metabolism, in the plasma of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) patients. The deregulated microRNAs identified will be then validated and computational analyzes will determine …
Monitoring of Cerebral Blood Flow in Patients on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is a supportive therapy, indicated in case of severe, possibly reversible pulmonary failure, refractory to conventional therapies. Despite advances, morbidity and mortality remain high. Severe neurological complications can occur during ECMO, but their exact etiology is not well understood. It is hypothesized that fast correction …
Normal Donor Blood Draws for Platelet Studies and Biomarker Evaluation (ND-PLT)
This is a single-center study at the Cleveland Clinic Main Campus designed to study biomarkers in healthy individuals to identify novel mechanisms of platelet activation and how platelets drive vascular inflammation and thrombosis in diseases.
Novel MRI Techniques on Evaluation of Lymphedema
In this project, the investigators aim to investigate the imaging approaches for breast cancer-related secondary lymphedema. The clinical study aims to optimize the conventional MRI methods for mapping lymphedema and assess the post-surgical therapeutic effects in longitudinal follow-up studies. Additionally, a normal imaging database of lymphedema MRI images will be …
BIOlogics in Severe Nasal POlyposis SurvEy
With a prevalence of 2-4% in western countries, Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP) is of major concern regarding its substantial impact on the social and physical quality of life. So far, endoscopic sinus surgery remains the treatment of choice when the first line of medical treatment with corticosteroid has …
Anterior vs Posterior Surgery for Lumbar Isthmic Spondylolisthesis
Currently there is no consensus on the best surgical treatment of patients with symptomatic isthmic spondylolisthesis (IS). Clinical equipoise exists amongst experienced clinicians on the various surgical techniques available. This study will involve multiple phases to answer specific research questions comparing anterior and posterior interbody fusion in patients with lumbar …
