## Modeling Tic Change During Behavior Therapy for Tics - **NCT ID**: NCT06270251 - **Study ID**: PSYCH-2023-32292 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-03-01 - **Completion Date**: 2028-09-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of Minnesota ### Study Description Chronic tics are a disabling neuropsychiatric symptom associated with multiple child-onset mental disorders. Chronic tics affect 1-3% of youth and can be associated with impaired functioning, emotional and behavioral problems, physical pain, diminished quality of life, and peer victimization. Chronic tics are the primary symptom of Tourette Syndrome (TS) and Persistent Motor/Vocal Tic Disorders.CBIT is a manualized treatment focused on increasing tic controllability. Its core procedure is competing response training (CRT), in which patients learn to inhibit tics by learning and applying a competing motor action to one tic at a time. CBIT is recommended as a first-line treatment relative to medications and other therapies. However, only 52% of children and 38% of adults show clinically meaningful tic improvement. Large randomized trials have demonstrated the superiority of CBIT over supportive therapy in child and adult patients, and meta-analysis shows comparable effect sizes for CBIT and medication. Although increasing tic controllability is the primary goal of CBIT, tic controllability nor its correlates have been examined longitudinally during the intervention.The overall objective of this study is to use fine-grained data collection strategies to identify patterns in tic controllability and other relevant related variables that are associated with treatment response to CBIT. Participants with chronic tics will complete a manualized course of 8-session CBIT. Behavioral, psychosocial, and global functioning will be assessed longitudinally to examine predictors and correlates of response. CBIT sessions will be video recorded. ### Conditions - Chronic Tic Disorder ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SINGLE_GROUP - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - CBIT ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Tic Severity - Sheehan Disability scale - Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function - Ask Suicide-Screening Questions (ASQ) - Child Attitudes Toward Illness Scale (CATIS) - Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale - Caregiver Strain Questionnaire - Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) - Parent/Adult Tic Questionnaire **Secondary Outcomes** - Premonitory Urge for Tics Scale - Tic Suppression Task - Stop signal task ### Location - **Facility**: University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota, 55414, United States @@
## Efficacy of Personalized Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Protocol Based on Functional Reserve to Enhance Upper Limb Function in Subacute Stroke Patients - **NCT ID**: NCT06270238 - **Study ID**: 2023-11-164 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-02-13 - **Completion Date**: 2025-09-30 - **Lead Sponsor**: Samsung Medical Center ### Study Description The objective of this study was to determine the effects of protocols of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) therapy based on the functional reserve of each hemiplegic stroke patient in subacute phase, compared to conventional low-frequency rTMS therapy on contralateral M1. Investigators hypothesized that the functional reserve of each hemiplegic stroke patient will be different, and therefore an appropriate simulating target for rTMS therapy is needed. In addition, this approach could be more effective compared to conventional protocols applied to stroke patients regardless of their severity, predicted mechanism of motor function recovery, or functional reserves. ### Conditions - Stroke ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - High-Frequency1 - cTBS1 - High-Frequency2 - cTBS2 - High-Frequency3 - cTBS3 ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score of Upper Extremity (FMA-UL) **Secondary Outcomes** - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score of Upper Extremity (FMA-UL) - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score of Upper Extremity (FMA-UL) - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score (FMA) - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score (FMA) - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score (FMA) - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score of Lower Extremity (FMA-LL) - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score of Lower Extremity (FMA-LL) - Differences of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score of Lower Extremity (FMA-LL) - Differences of Box and block test - Differences of Box and block test - Differences of Box and block test - Differences of Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) - Differences of Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) - Differences of Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) - Differences of Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) - Differences of Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) - Differences of Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) - Differences of Jebsen-Taylor hand function test - Differences of Jebsen-Taylor hand function test - Differences of Jebsen-Taylor hand function test - Differences of Hand grip strength test - Differences of Hand grip strength test - Differences of Hand grip strength test ### Location - **Facility**: Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, N/A, 06351, Korea, Republic of @@

## Evaluation of Cognitive Functions in 20 Patients With Type 1 Myotonic Dystrophy With Virtual Reality Approach - **NCT ID**: NCT06270186 - **Study ID**: 20-AOIP-04 - **Status**: WITHDRAWN - **Start Date**: 2023-11 - **Completion Date**: 2024-11 - **Lead Sponsor**: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice ### Study Description Type 1 myotonic dystrophy (MD1) is a genetic and hereditary disease that primarily affects muscle tissue, resulting in myotonia (difficulty relaxing after contraction) and atrophy (progressive muscle weakening with decreased muscle volume). It also affects eyes, heart, endocrine system, gastrointestinal system and central nervous system. Specific cognitive abilities are impaired in patients with MD1 such as attention, visio-spatial or visio-building abilities as well as executive dysfunctions.Currently, the cognitive assessment of MD1 patients is based on classical neuropsychological tests, which are time-consuming and require a MD1 expert neuropsychologist. Moreover, it is usually very difficult for MD1 patients to accept performing these tests, and when they agree to perform them, they usually give up before the end. This finding is more frequent in MD1 patients with high level of cognitive impairment.In order to overcome these difficulties in assessing cognitive functions of MD1 patients, the investigators decided to use innovative tools such as virtual reality, which allow individuals to experience a sensory-motor and cognitive experience in a digitally world through a helmet, glasses and joysticks.The start-up My Cyber Royaume from Lille, in collaboration with the reference center of neuromuscular diseases from Nice coordinated by Pr Sacconi, have developed a software "Good Diag NMD" which uses virtual reality to assess cognitive disorders, more specifically executive functions in patients with type 1 myotonic dystrophy. ### Conditions - Myotonic Dystrophy 1 ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SINGLE_GROUP - **Primary Purpose**: DIAGNOSTIC ### Interventions - Type 1 myotonic dystrophy ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Evaluate the feasibility of the use "Good Diag NMD" software in the evaluation of cognitive executive dysfunctions in patients with dystrophy myotonia 1 **Secondary Outcomes** - Establish a possible relationship between the genotype of DM1 patients and the scores obtained during "Good Diag NMD" session - To compare the satisfaction score of type 1 myotonic dystrophy patients between classic neuropsychological tests and the Good Diag NMD session - Compare the scores of "Good Diag NMD" session (scores of perseveration, inhibition and flexibility) with the scores of the classical neuropsychological tests - Establish a possible correlation between the severity of the disease, the severity of muscular impairment and the scores of Good Diag NMD session ### Location - **Facility**: N/A, N/A, N/A, N/A, N/A @@

## Livelihoods Intervention With Urban Refugee Youth in Kampala, Uganda - **NCT ID**: NCT06270160 - **Study ID**: KampalaLivelihoodsStudy - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-03-01 - **Completion Date**: 2024-12-31 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of Toronto ### Study Description Displaced and refugee youth in Uganda are more vulnerable to health risks due to financial insecurity. As such, the investigators aim to explore the utility of an intervention aimed at improving livelihoods, called Creating Futures. Creating Futures is a group intervention that aims to help young people build their livelihoods, and was designed for use with youth (18-24) in urban informal settlements in South Africa.Since there is a dearth of knowledge regarding efficacious interventions in refugee camps/settlements to engage young people in HIV testing and linkage to care, the investigators will harness various health promotion techniques including mHealth, comics, and the Creating Futures livelihoods intervention to address the urgent needs for: 1) HIV testing interventions with refugee/displaced adolescent and young people in Kampala, and 2) innovative HIV self test (HIVST) delivery strategies to increase linkage to confirmatory testing and HIV care. The investigators will conduct a three-arm cluster randomized controlled trial (cRCT) to evaluate the effectiveness of HIVST delivery methods among AYP living in Kampala. The specific objectives are to: Evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of: 1) HIVST alone; 2) HIVST in combination with mHealth; and 3) HIVST, mHealth and Creating Futures in combination in increasing routine HIV testing, HIV status knowledge, and linkage to confirmatory testing and HIV care. The investigators aim to examine if adding a livelihoods program to HIV self-testing improves HIV prevention outcomes and other facets of well-being among urban refugee youth in Kampala. ### Conditions - Financial Stress - Social Functioning - Social Skills ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: HEALTH_SERVICES_RESEARCH ### Interventions - HIVST - mHealth - Creating Futures Livelihoods program ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Number of participants engaged in HIV testing **Secondary Outcomes** - Number of participants with knowledge of their HIV status - Number of participants linked to confirmatory HIV testing - Frequency of linkage to HIV care - Brief HIV Knowledge Questionnaire - Sexual Risk ### Location - **Facility**: Young African Refugees for Integral Development, Kampala, N/A, N/A, Uganda @@

Colon cancer is treated with surgery and thereafter adjuvant oncological treatment. The selection of chemotherapy is today mainly done according to best guess. Today only a small fraction of oncological treatment may be known to be effective in a person before treatment start, most often it is trial and error. A fast reliable system for looking at response to different treatments in each unique patient is much needed and would, if successful, completely change the way we give oncological treatment today. This system would also be possible to use to evaluate new treatments and if successful, implement in the clinical setting. In this project we will implant a part of the patient's tumour tissue into a zebrafish embryo and evaluate tumour growth and frequency of metastatic disease as well as response to given oncological treatment.2.2 Objective: The objective of this project is to explore the usefulness of zebrafish (Danio Rerio) embryo models to determine tumor biology and treatment response in colon cancer. An overarching goal would be, before start of any oncological treatment in a patient, to have evaluated the response of oncological treatment in the zebrafish avatar and only treat with a combination of drugs known to have effect against the patient's own tumour.2.3 Study design: This protocol describes a series of prospective studies in different cohorts of patients with colon cancer to investigate the applicability of zebrafish embryo models. The common denominator of the sub-studies is prospective collection of tumor tissue implanted in zebrafish embryos in order to evaluate if the model is robust enough for growing colon cancer tissue and evaluate growth pattern and response to chemotherapy. This study protocol is designed according to and in adherence with the SPIRIT guidelines.2.4 Intervention: In all sub-studies the intervention is inoculation of tumor cells in zebrafish embryos followed by observation of tumor behavior and testing of treatments. ### Conditions - Colon Cancer ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SINGLE_GROUP - **Primary Purpose**: DIAGNOSTIC ### Interventions - Chemotherapy drug ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Tumour growth **Secondary Outcomes** - response evaluation ### Location - **Facility**: Per Sandström, Linköping, Ostergotland, 58185, Sweden @@

In limited cuff lesions (distal or intermediates) and in absence of contraindication, absence of tendons' healing is around 10 to 20%. Sofcot estimates that 90% of caps' heals remain healed 10 years after surgery in distal lesions. However, even in case of a healed cuff, if tendon quality is not good, function will be impaired.Bioinductive implant Regeneten® is an advanced healing solution for biological improvement and regeneration of tendons on all types rotator cuff tear. A randomized study was initiated whose main objective was to evaluate integrity of repaired tendon with MRI one year after intervention according to Sugaya's classification. Results showed a recurrence rate of 8.3% in Regeneten® group compared to 25.8% in witness group.In this context, this study is based on hypothesis that adding Regeneten® during rotator cuff repair could be beneficial on tendon healing rate but also on tendon quality healing. ### Conditions - Cuff Rotator Syndrome ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Regeneten® adding ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Rotator cuff healing quality **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: N/A, N/A, N/A, N/A, N/A @@
## Intimate Partner Violence Among People Who Inject Drugs - Prevalence, Risk Factors and Experiences - **NCT ID**: NCT06269952 - **Study ID**: MVarmafalk - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-10-05 - **Completion Date**: 2028-12 - **Lead Sponsor**: Region Stockholm ### Study Description There are around 15,6 million people who inject drugs (PWID) worldwide, of which around 3,5 million are women who inject drugs (WWID) (1). In Sweden, estimates suggest 8000-21000 PWID (2). PWID are exposed to substantial health risks that are directly linked to injection drug use, such as blood borne viruses (hepatitis and HIV), overdoses and skin and tissue infections. Additionally psychiatric disorders are common and PWID's general health is often neglected (3,4,5).In Sweden, harm reduction units such as needle and syringe programs (NSP) have scaled-up in recent years. In Stockholm the first NSP opened in 2013 and the second in 2018. In 2022, 4600 individuals were enrolled in the program since it opened, of which approximately 25% were women. Around 2000 were active participants, defined as having visited the program at least once during the last 12 months. In 2021 54% of the participants stated amphetamine as the last drug injected, 31% heroin, 4% buprenorphine and 11% other drugs. Most participants were between 30-49 years of age. In addition to distribution of sterile needles and injection paraphernalia, the NSP staff (nurses, doctors, midwifes, counselors) provides services such as testing for blood borne viruses, vaccinations, wound care, take-home naloxone, reproductive health services, counselling, support in contact with social service and referrals for substance use disorder treatment and hepatitis C/HIV treatment.Gender-based violence (GBV) is a global health issue and WHO estimates that one in three women globally have been exposed to some sort of partner violence during their lifespan (7). Intimate partner violence (IPV) is defined as violent behavior between two people who have a close relationship, such as partners, ex-partners, siblings, relatives, friends and alike. In Sweden around 14% of women and 5% of men are exposed to physical violence in an intimate partner relationship during their lifespan however 20-25% of women and around 17% of men are exposed to psychological violence during their lifespan (8; 9). The prevalence of IPV among PWID is estimated to be significantly higher than in the general population (10). A study from USA found the risk of IPV to be three times higher and the prevalence estimated between 35-57% (7). In international studies, IPV exposure is found to be a significant risk factor for needle sharing among WWID (11, 12). There are other well-known consequences of IPV including impact on sexual and reproductive health rights, physical and psychological wellbeing, increased risk of contracting HIV and hepatitis C (13; 14). IPV exposure disproportionately affects WWID worldwide, however studies in Sweden on IPV exposure in the PWID population is scarce. To date there are studies that address this among women with substance use disorders but none with an exclusive focus on PWID or WWID. In clinical research of women diagnosed with substance use disorders (SUD) with psychiatric comorbidities and social challenges, one study indicates that the majority (91%, n=79) of women had been exposed to some form of IPV (15). Another study of women with SUD (n=52), 50% reported exposure of serious violence and the majority (96%) reported exposure to psychological violence (10). There are different types of IPV; psychological, physical, sexual, financial, latent, digital, neglect, honor related, aftermath of IPV (16). Our research team has previously carried out a qualitative interview study among WWID at the Stockholm NSP in 2019 to investigate reasons and barriers for participation among women (17). The interviews illustrated that IPV is common. In the proposed studies, for this doctoral thesis, we have chosen to focus on physical, sexual, psychological and financial violence among PWID motivated by findings in our previous research.PWID and specifically WWID are regarded as groups who are especially vulnerable for IPV exposure and should therefore be prioritized in the national efforts to prevent IPV (15). However, there are no studies estimating the prevalence and frequency of IPV among PWID in Sweden. Previous international studies suggest that PWID are exposed to IPV to a greater extent than the general population, and women with substance use disorders are exposed to an alarming degree of violence (15). In Sweden there are no tailored interventions for PWID or WWID who are exposed to IPV, it is reasonable to believe that there is a need for a multi-faceted program for PWID exposed to IPV, however this is still unexplored.The overall aim of this project is to increase knowledge about IPV among PWID and WWID as particularly vulnerable groups in regards to IPV. More specifically, the aim is to investigate the prevalence and frequency of different types of IPV among PWID at the Stockholm NSP and to explore the experiences' of IPV, needs and preferences for IPV support among WWID to facilitate tailored support and prevention programs for those exposed. ### Conditions - People Who Inject Drugs, Injection Risk Behaviour, Gender-based Violence, Intimate Partner Violence ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - No intervention ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Intimate partner violence **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: Needle syringe program, Stockholm, N/A, N/A, Sweden @@

## Comparison of Body Weights Via Visual Estimation, Anthropometric Calculation, and Actual Measured in Critically Ill Patients - **NCT ID**: NCT06269861 - **Study ID**: GaziUtipNBDundar003 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-11-01 - **Completion Date**: 2024-10-31 - **Lead Sponsor**: Gazi University ### Study Description Rapid and accurate determination of body weight in adult intensive care patients is very important for both calculating target tidal volume during invasive mechanical ventilation support and dose dependent drug administration. In this patient group, measuring actual body weight with a calibrated scale by standing the patient up is often impossible due to acute illness. Instead, estimated body weight determined by health care personnel or estimated body weights calculated according to anthropometric measurements are used. These calculations have some limitations in showing actual body weight, and there is some controversial information in current literature regarding their validity in critically ill patients. There is newly developed patient transfer scale called Marsden M-999® manufactured by Marsden Weighing Machine Group Ltd, which has the advantage of being used in patients who are unable to stand up, in rapidly and accurately measuring the current body weight in critically ill patients. This study aimed to evaluate the validity of these methods by comparing the body weights calculated by visual estimation and various anthropometric methods in critically ill Turkish patients with the actual weight measured by the mentioned scale. ### Conditions - Critically Ill - Body Weight ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NON_RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: SEQUENTIAL - **Primary Purpose**: SCREENING ### Interventions - patient transfer scale ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - determining actual weight - determining the ideal estimated body weight in critically ill patients **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: Gazi University, Ankara, Yenimahalle, 06560, Turkey @@

## MAgnetic Resonance Imaging-guided implanTation of Cardioverter DEFibrillators - **NCT ID**: NCT06269692 - **Study ID**: 2023-A01353-42 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-04-01 - **Completion Date**: 2030-04-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: Central Hospital, Nancy, France ### Study Description Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) are currently recommended for the primary prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with a remote (\>6 weeks) myocardial infarction (MI) and a low (≤35%) left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).Ventricular tachycardia (VT) and/or ventricular fibrillation (VF), which are responsible for most SCDs, result from the presence of surviving myocytes embedded within fibrotic MI-scar. The presence of these surviving myocytes, as well as their specific arrhythmic characteristics, is not captured by LVEF. Hence, the use of LVEF as a unique risk-stratifier of SCD results in a low proportion (17 to 31%) of appropriate ICD device therapy at 2 years. Consequently, most patients with a prophylactic ICD do not present VT/VF requiring ICD therapy prior to their first-ICD battery depletion. Thus, many patients are exposed to ICD complications, such as inappropriate shocks, without deriving any health benefit. Therefore, the current implantation strategy of prophylactic ICDs, based on LVEF only, needs to be improved in post-MI patients. ### Conditions - Myocardial Infarction - Ventricular Tachycardia - Ventricular Fibrillation - Sudden Cardiac Death ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: PREVENTION ### Interventions - MRI screening - Implantable Loop Recorder - Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Occurrence of Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD) during the follow-up period **Secondary Outcomes** - Total number of deaths during the follow-up period - Total number of deaths from cardiovascular cause during the follow-up period - Total number of SCD due to ventricular arrhythmia during the follow-up period - Total number (per patient) of sustained VT episodes treated by the ICD or recorded by the ILR during the follow-up period - Total number (per patient) of VF episodes treated by the ICD or recorded by the ILR during the follow-up period - Total number of hospitalizations due to cardiovascular causes during the follow-up period - Duration of hospitalizations due to cardiovascular causes during the follow-up period - Total number of hospitalizations from any cause during the follow-up period - Duration of hospitalizations from any cause during the follow-up period - Quality of life assessed by the scoring obtained from EuroQol questionnaires (EQ-5D-5L) during the follow-up period - Measurements of the estimated costs - Dice scores of the segmentation of the left ventricle and scar obtained from new MR sequences - Contour distance metrics of the segmentation of the left ventricle and scar obtained from new MR sequences - Dice scores of the accuracy of fully automated segmentation of the left ventricle and scar - Contour distance metrics of the accuracy of fully automated segmentation of the left ventricle and scar ### Location - **Facility**: CHRU Nancy, Vandœuvre-lès-Nancy, N/A, 54511, France @@
## CBCT vs OPT on the Oral Health Status at 12 Months of Patients Hospitalized for Infective Endocarditis. - **NCT ID**: NCT06269679 - **Study ID**: RC23_0336 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-05-01 - **Completion Date**: 2028-05-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: Nantes University Hospital ### Study Description 1. Infective Endocarditis (IE) is a rare and serious disease with high morbidity and mortality; 2. Streptoccoci of oral origin are the second more frequent microorganisms responsible for IE; 3. Oral Infectious Foci (OIF) are underdetected using the current recommended clinical examination/Orthopantomogram (OPT) approach; 4. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has a better sensitivity and sensibility to detect OIF than OPT; 5. To date, no study has been performed to assess the potential benefit of a clinical examination/CBCT approach on the oral health status in IE patients.Thus, conducting a randomized controlled trial is highly desirable to assess the potential impact of a clinical examination/CBCT approach on the oral health status of patients hospitalized for IE and potentially to reduce IE new episodes. ### Conditions - Infective Endocarditis ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: DIAGNOSTIC ### Interventions - CBCT ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Superiority of CBCT - Superiority of CBCT - Superiority of CBCT **Secondary Outcomes** - Diagnostic at inclusion - Incident symptomatic OIF - Incident asymptomatic OIF - Oral hygiene - Follow-up habits - Follow-up habits - Oral health quality of life - Premature end of study ### Location - **Facility**: CHU Bordeaux - Site Pellegrin, Bordeaux, N/A, N/A, France @@

## NHLBI SESAME (SEptal Scoring Along Midline Endocardium) Early Feasibility Study - **NCT ID**: NCT06269640 - **Study ID**: 10001640 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-05-01 - **Completion Date**: 2027-10-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) ### Study Description Background:Some people have a condition in which the wall (septum) that separates the two main pumping chambers of the heart is too thick. This thick septum causes a condition called "left ventricular outflow tract obstruction" (LVOTO), which reduces blood flow out of the heart. LVOTO can cause serious heart disease; symptoms may include shortness of breath, chest pain, heart failure, or death. Researchers want to find better ways to treat LVOTO.Objective:To test a new procedure where excess tissue is sliced away from the septum in people with LVOTO. This procedure is called "septal scoring along midline endocardium" (SESAME).Eligibility:Adults aged 21 years with LVOTO.Design:Participants will have baseline tests. They will have imaging scans and tests of their heart structure and function. They will take a walking test and answer questions about how their heart condition affects their life.Participants will stay in the hospital 2 to 6 days for the SESAME procedure.They will be completely or partially asleep for the procedure. A tube will be inserted into the mouth and down the throat to take pictures of the heart. Pictures may also be taken with a tube inserted inside the heart.Next, tubes will be inserted into the groin and guided through the blood vessels up to the heart. Guidewires will be inserted into the heart. Doctors will watch the path the wires take with x-rays and ultrasound. When the wire is in the correct place, it will be electrified to slice excess tissue away from the septum.Participants will have 3 follow-up visits within 1 year. ### Conditions - Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy - Left Ventricular Septal Hypertrophy - Mitral Valve Disease - Aortic Valve Stenosis ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SINGLE_GROUP - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Septal Scoring Along Midline Endocardium ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Technical success - Safety **Secondary Outcomes** - Complete heart block requiring permanent pacemaker ### Location - **Facility**: Emory University Hospital, Atlanta, Georgia, 30322, United States @@

However, several observational studies conclude that ADA seem to have similar effect as IFX in treating patients with UC but these studies have limitations.The overall aim of this retrospective multicenter observational cohort study is to evaluate if there is a difference in efficacy between infliximab (IFX) and adalimumab (ADA) in treating bio-naive patients with UC in the short and long term during the modern era when therapeutic drug monitoring have been used to optimize anti-TNF treatment. ### Conditions - Ulcerative Colitis - Inflammatory Bowel Diseases ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - Infliximab - Adalimumab ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Percentage of patients achieving steroid-free clinical remission **Secondary Outcomes** - Percentage of patients achieving clinical response - Percentage of patients achieving clinical remission - Percentage of patients achieving biochemical remission - Percentage of patients achieving clinical remission - Percentage of patients achieving biochemical remission - Percentage of patients achieving endoscopic response - Percentage of patients achieving endoscopic remission ### Location - **Facility**: Västra Götalandsregionen, Göteborg, N/A, N/A, Sweden @@
## Perceptions Across Ethnicities to Develop an Adapted Intervention for Breathlessness - **NCT ID**: NCT06269172 - **Study ID**: 162076 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-02-12 - **Completion Date**: 2025-11-30 - **Lead Sponsor**: University Hospitals, Leicester ### Study Description An individual's experience of their breathlessness is influenced by multiple factors including their medical condition, psychology, sociological and situational circumstances which will include ethnicity. There is currently a lack of evidence exploring the impact of ethnicity in the experience and presentation of breathlessness.The non-medical management of breathlessness in respiratory diseases includes pulmonary rehabilitation (PR). PR is a highly evidenced exercise-based intervention to help manage breathlessness, improving health-related quality of life and improving survival. Recent audits in England and Wales showed 89% of patients attending PR were recorded as having a White British ethnicity which is in contrast to national ethnicity demographics. This may be because the cultural acceptability of PR components are not fully considered. Therefore, this study will explore how individuals with cardiorespiratory disease from different ethnicities from the Leicestershire population experience and manage their breathlessness through art workshops, focus groups and interviews. Informed by these results, the study team will work with individuals from under-represented ethnicities and key stakeholders to co-design adaptations of PR that may improve the management of breathlessness in underrepresented ethnicities that do not attend conventional PR programmes.The study is funded by the Wellcome Trust as part of the Leicestershire Health Inequalities Improvement Programme at the University of Leiceste ### Conditions - Cardiovascular Diseases ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - intereviews ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Art Workshops, Focus Groups and Semi-Structured Interviews **Secondary Outcomes** - : Experience Based Co-design The co-development of an intervention for breathlessness for under-represented ethnicities. ### Location - **Facility**: Glenfield Hospital, Leicester, Leicestershire, LE39QP, United Kingdom @@
## The Power of 24-hour: Co-designing Intervention Components - **NCT ID**: NCT06269159 - **Study ID**: ONZ-2023-0185 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-09-05 - **Completion Date**: 2025-03-31 - **Lead Sponsor**: University Hospital, Ghent ### Study Description Most of the existing lifestyle interventions in adults with overweight or obesity focus on one movement behavior in isolation (i.e. moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA)). However, recent research suggests to incorporate all movement behaviors performed in one day to explore the possible synergistic health effects of targeting more than one behavior. Moreover, more optimal 24-hour movement behavior compositions are related with better cardiometabolic health. Literature shows that adults with obesity have less optimal 24-hour compositions (8-9). Therefore it would be of interest to discover the needs related to an optimal 24-hour movement behavior intervention for a group of adults with overweight and obesity using co-design to develop an intervention.This study will conduct a concept mapping protocol to explore the needs to of people with overweight and obesity to change their sedentary behavior into more physical activity as well to include the opinion of health care providers (HCP are physiotherapists) on the needs of their patients. ### Conditions - Overweight and Obesity ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - Concept mapping: brainstorm - Concept mapping: clustering and rating ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Themes - Score of effectiveness - Score of feasibility - Score of modifiability **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: Ghent university Hospital, Ghent, N/A, 9000, Belgium @@
## Pramipexole to Enhance Social Connections - **NCT ID**: NCT06269146 - **Study ID**: 806035 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-02 - **Completion Date**: 2025-03 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of California, San Diego ### Study Description This study seeks to understand if the medication pramipexole improves social connectedness and functioning in adults (ages 18-50) who experience anxiety or depression. The study plans to enroll 108 participants total across two sites (University of California San Diego and New York State Psychiatric Institute). Pramipexole will be given in a 6-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Social reward processing will be assessed using measures of brain function (fMRI), behavior, and self-report at baseline and week 6. Knowledge gained from this study will help determine the therapeutic potential of targeting the dopamine system to remediate social disconnection as an anxiety and depression intervention. ### Conditions - Anxiety Disorders - Anxiety - Depression - Social Disconnection ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Pramipexole Pill - Placebo Pill ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Neural activation during social reward anticipation **Secondary Outcomes** - Neural activation during opportunities to disclose to others - Motivation to engage in shared experiences with others - Positive affect in response to the social affiliation task - Social approach goals during the social affiliation task - Social approach behavior during the social affiliation task - Future approach motivation - Blood plasma pramipexole concentrations ### Location - **Facility**: University of California, San Diego, San Diego, California, 92093, United States @@
