### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this observational study is to learn about quality of life, stress and caregiver burden in patients with stroke and their caregivers.
The main question is:
• to discover the factors associated with quality of life and stress in patient-caregiver dyads.
Participants will be asked to fill out questionnaires and agree to provide a hair sample (in order to measure stress hormones in hair) and consent to use of their routine clinical and laboratory data.
Researchers will compare a group of participants without stroke to establish a comparable baseline.
**Detailed Description:** Introduction/Background
In Switzerland, approximately 21,000 people suffer a stroke each year. Stroke causes neurological impairments for those affected and brings about a sudden change in their life situation. The relatives of stroke patients receive new social roles and are challenged in a new way by the morbidity of the affected person, leading to a change in their quality of life and aggravation of stress. Unlike chronic diseases, a stroke occurs suddenly, so relatives have no opportunity to gradually adapt to the new living circumstances or to deal with the new psychosocial roles and demands beforehand. To what extent the daily life of patients and their relatives changes and what impact this has on their quality of life and stress has not been systematically investigated in Switzerland thus far.
Aims and significance of the project
The aim of the project is to systematically assess the quality of life and stress, as well as to capture stress biomarkers in stroke patients and their relatives. The investigators plan to conduct sequential measurements of quality of life and stress hormones at multiple time points over 12 months. The goal is in particular to uncover the relationships between the extent of patients' impairments, their quality of life, and stress in affected individuals and their relatives. This is a first-time project with the goal of learning more about stressors and biological relationships. This will create the basis for a multimodal intervention to improve the quality of life of those affected and their relatives, which will be investigated in a follow-up project.
Methods
The Investigators plan a prospective study with a survey of stroke patients and their relatives regarding their quality of life in everyday life. It will also be examined, how multiple stress biomarkers (which will be determined in blood and hair) are related to quality of life and stress and which clinical factors have a positive and negative influence on the well-being of patients and their relatives.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** When performed by trained personnel nasotracheal intubation is a safe and effective technique for attaining a secure airway in preparation for surgery of the head and neck. The procedure can be deemed necessary due to the nature of the surgical procedure or considerations in regard to the patient's comorbidities. For a certain group of patients with expected difficult airways, the procedure is done whilst they are awake and aided by fiberoptics.
For these awake patients, extra precautions must be taken to ensure the procedure is conducted with minimal pain and discomfort. The pain and discomfort arises from the mechanical manipulation of the nasal mucosa and can be alleviated in part by means of topical analgesia as well as through decongestion, providing more space within the nasal cavity. For these purposes, several drugs in varying combinations and dosages are used, but no single drug choice is universally recommended.
Cocaine is one of these appropriate drugs. It is a magistral formula used especially due to its unique combination of both vasoconstrictive and analgesic properties. Concerns have though been raised regarding cocaine's potential toxicity and alternative medications are continuously sought after.
A combination of lidocaine and xylometazoline can also be used for preparation of the nose prior to awake nasal fiberoptic intubation. Lidocaine contributes with its analgesic effect whilst xylometazoline functions as the vasoconstrictor.
The investigators wish to compare the analgesic effects of cocaine and lidocaine/phenylephrine to each other and saline when subjectively scored on a visual analogue scale of 0-100 mm immediately after simulated awake nasal intubation on healthy volunteers.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of low-dose laser acupuncture (LLA) in alleviating insomnia symptoms among patients suffering from major depressive disorder.
The study seeks to answer the following questions:
1. How effective is LLA in alleviating insomnia symptoms as compare with SLA and control subjects among patients with major depressive disorder across pre-treatment, mid-treatment and post-treatment assessment?
2. What role do CORT and 5-HT play in the co-occurrence and progression of insomnia and major depressive disorder, and how does LLA act on these mechanisms to provide relief?
3. Does LLA enhance the effectiveness of pharmacological interventions in treating insomnia and major depressive disorder when used as an adjunctive treatment?
4. How does the safety and acceptability of LLA compare to traditional acupuncture in terms of eliminating discomfort and potential side effects? Researchers will compare the effects of LLA with sham laser acupuncture (SLA) and standard medication treatments to evaluate its efficacy and safety.
Participants involved in this study will:
Undergo 30 treatment sessions with LLA or SLA, five times a week for six weeks. Continue their usual pharmacological treatments for major depressive disorder. Participants will undergo comprehensive assessments at key points: pre-treatment, immediately post-treatment, and 12 weeks post-treatment. These evaluations will measure sleep quality indices, levels of depression and anxiety, and blood levels of CORT and 5-HT to assess the impact of LLA on insomnia symptoms and biochemical markers. Additionally, participant acceptance and the safety of the treatment will be monitored, including recording any adverse events and medication usage, to determine the effectiveness and safety of LLA in treating insomnia associated with major depressive disorder.
By focusing on these elements, the study aims to provide clear, actionable insights into the benefits and risks of LLA as a treatment option for insomnia associated with major depressive disorder, enhancing the current treatment landscape and patient outcomes.
**Detailed Description:** This randomised controlled trial aims to explore the therapeutic potential of low-dose laser acupuncture (LLA) for treating insomnia in patients diagnosed with major depressive disorder. The study will investigate the physiological and psychological impacts of LLA in comparison with sham laser acupuncture (SLA) and standard pharmacological therapies.
Intervention Details:
LLA involves the application of a low-level laser to specific acupoints known to affect sleep and mood regulation. The technique mimics traditional acupuncture but uses laser light to stimulate these points without physical penetration of the skin, offering a non-invasive alternative with potentially fewer adverse effects. The primary acupoints targeted in this study include Baihui (GV20), Yintang (GV29), Anmian (EX-HN22), Shenmen (HT7), Neiguan (PC6), Sanyinjiao (SP6), and Taichong (LR3).
Study Phases:
The study will be structured into three key phases: pre-treatment, immediately post-treatment, and 12 weeks post-treatment. During the pre-treatment phase, baseline evaluations will be conducted to establish initial levels of insomnia and depressive symptoms in participants. The treatment phase will follow, lasting six weeks, with participants receiving five sessions per week. Subsequent assessments will occur immediately post-treatment to evaluate the immediate effects of the interventions, and again at 12 weeks post-treatment to assess the long-term outcomes.
Research Focus:
The study will particularly focus on the effectiveness of LLA in improving sleep quality as measured by validated scales and objective assessments like actigraphy, which monitors sleep-wake patterns. Additionally, the research will assess changes in psychological state and biochemical markers, which are critical in understanding the interaction between sleep disorders and depression. These measures will help ascertain whether LLA can alter the physiological pathways typically disrupted in major depressive disorder, potentially offering a new avenue for treatment that could complement or reduce the need for pharmacological intervention.
Innovation and Potential Impact:
By integrating a novel, non-invasive method such as LLA, the study could significantly impact the treatment strategies for insomnia in the context of major depressive disorder. This approach not only aims to reduce symptoms but also to enhance overall treatment tolerance and patient adherence, addressing key challenges in managing these interlinked conditions.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this study is to measure the effect of telerehabilitation on the treatment of nonspecific chronic LBP in the adults Brazilian Black population. The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. Will the graded activity exercises guided by educational approach or only the educational approach alone improve low back pain intensity, functional capacity, quality of life, anxiety, fear-avoidance beliefs due to nonspecific chronic low back pain before, immediately after the 4-week intervention, and after 3 and 6 months of follow-up?
2. How will participants' behaviors in terms of frequency and adherence, exercise feedback diary, and educational approach for nonspecific chronic low back pain be?
What are the participants' opinions and any difficulties or barriers encountered throughout the study?
3. What are the perceptions of discrimination based on race, gender, age, socioeconomic status, and education when accessing healthcare services for the treatment of low back pain in the past?
Researchers will compare Group Experimental Graded Activity with Educational Program with Telerehabilitation to a placebo (only Educational Approach ) to see improve the pain intensity and functional capacity because of low back pain.
Participants will:
* Take Group Experimental (GAEP) or a placebo (OEA) 3 times per week, for 1 month.
* Keep a feedback diary of their symptoms and the barriers they have.
* Visit the researcher by online teleassessment after one month, 3 months and 6 months follow-up.
**Detailed Description:** Background: Low back pain (LBP) is highly prevalent, ranging from 30 to 70% in developed and industrialized countries, leading to health costs and work absenteeism. However, when it comes to the Black population, studies addressing the treatment of nonspecific chronic LBP while considering the specificities of this population are scarce. The use of telerehabilitation opens up opportunities for the physiotherapy community to address musculoskeletal conditions.
The goal of this study is to measure the effect of telerehabilitation on the treatment of nonspecific chronic LBP in the adult Brazilian Black population.
Methods: A randomized controlled double-blind clinical trial, with a 1:1 allocation of 102 Afro-Brazilian participants divided into two groups, with 51 participants in each, experiencing nonspecific chronic LBP for at least 3 months, of both sexes, aged 18-65 years, residing in Brazil, and divided into the Gradual Activity Group (GAG) and Control Group (CG), with a duration of 12 sessions, three times per week. The intervention will involve the adaptation of an exercise program protocol based on gradual activity with progressive exercise intensity, through the web applications Physitrack® (researcher) and Physiapp® (participant). Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics will be evaluated. The primary outcome will be pain intensity, and secondary outcomes will include functional capacity, quality of life, beliefs, and fears. Also the perceptions of discrimination based on race, gender, age, socioeconomic status, and education will be assessed regarding prior access to healthcare services for the treatment of LBP. The groups will be assessed at baseline (T0), immediately post-treatment (T1), at 3-months (T2) and 6-months (T3) follow-ups. Data will be collected and managed using the REDCap® electronic data capture tools.
Discussion: Evidence suggests that telerehabilitation can be utilized as a potential tool to promote the treatment of non-severe conditions of nonspecific chronic LBP, but few studies have investigated the Black population while considering the specificities of populations that historically suffer from social inequalities in accessing healthcare treatments.

### Outcomes Module
#### Other Outcomes
**Description:** Sociodemographic characteristics (gender, age, marital status, self-declared race), socioeconomic factors (years of education and individual income), main occupational activity they have performed throughout their lives, and whether they are still engaged in it at the time of the research, according to the Brazilian Classification of Occupations. Clinical characteristics will include anthropometric variables: self-reported weight and height for subsequent calculation of Body Mass Index, stratified according to age groups as recommended by the World Health Organization, alcohol and tobacco consumption, self-reported diseases, and behavioral variables such as level of physical activity assessed by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Additionally, participants will be asked about medication consumption, dosages, seeking healthcare professionals for LBP treatment.
**Measure:** Sociodemographic and clinics characteristics
**Time Frame:** The Sociodemographic and clinics characteristics will be evaluated at baseline (T0).
**Description:** For the assessment of Perception of Discrimination, the adaptation of the "Everyday Discrimination to the context of healthcare utilization" scale and adapted for the healthcare context will be used. It consists of 7 qualitative statements about the experience during the search for and treatment of the health condition, in this case, for LBP, and the higher the score, the more present the perception of discrimination.
**Measure:** Perception of discrimination
**Time Frame:** The Perception of Discrimination will be evaluated at 6 months (T3).
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Pain intensity will be assessed using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). It is an 11-point scale ranging from 0 to 10, with zero indicating no pain and 10 indicating the most unbearable pain experienced by the participant. The subject will be asked about the presence of pain specifically localized to the lumbar region. Additionally, the frequency (every day, more than 15 days per month, between 8 and 15 days per month, between 1 and 7 days per month, or between 4 and 11 crises per year) and duration of symptoms (less than 2 years, 2 to 5 years, 6 to 10 years, more than 10 years) will be queried. The following definition of LBP will be utilized: "pain in the area between the 12th rib and the gluteal fold with or without leg pain.
**Measure:** Pain intensity
**Time Frame:** The participants' pain intensity will be evaluated at baseline (T0), after 12 sessions (T1), at 3 months (T2), and at 6 months (T3).
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** The Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) will be used. This questionnaire assesses the impact of low back pain on work and daily life activities due to symptoms, and it is better recommended for a population with low functional disability. The instrument has been validated for Brazilian Portuguese, is quick and easy to administer, with an average response time of five minutes. Scores are obtained by summing the items, which range from zero (no disability) to 24 (severe disability). Scores higher than 14 indicate physical disability. The minimum clinically important difference is 5 points.
**Measure:** Functional disability
**Time Frame:** The participants' functional disability will be evaluated at baseline (T0), after 12 sessions (T1), at 3 months (T2), and at 6 months (T3).
**Description:** To assess quality of life, the 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12) will be used as a quicker alternative to the 36-Item Health Survey. Comprising twelve items derived from the SF-36, the SF-12 assesses eight different dimensions influencing quality of life, considering the individual's perception of their health over the past four weeks. Each item has a set of responses distributed on a Likert-type scale, evaluating the following dimensions: physical functioning, role limitations due to physical health problems, bodily pain, general health perceptions, vitality, social functioning, role limitations due to emotional problems, and mental health. Through the instrument's own algorithm, two scores can be measured: the physical component summary (PCS) and the mental component summary (MCS). In both, scores range from 0 to 100 points, with higher scores associated with better quality of life. Psychometric properties of the instrument have also been evaluated.
**Measure:** Quality of life Impact
**Time Frame:** The participants' quality of life will be evaluated at baseline (T0), after 12 sessions (T1), at 3 months (T2), and at 6 months (T3).
**Description:** For anxiety assessment, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) will be used, which has been translated and adapted for use in Brazil. The scale consists of 2 self-report scales that assess state and trait anxiety. The scale comprises 20 items scored from 1 to 4 each, resulting in a total score ranging from 20 to 80 points. For each question, the corresponding score is assigned, but for positively framed questions, the score is reversed. Scores \> 42 tend to indicate anxiety, while scores \< 38 tend to indicate depression. The STAI Manual suggests using the title "Self-Assessment Questionnaire" instead of the term Anxiety.
**Measure:** State-Trait Anxiety
**Time Frame:** The participants' State-Trait Anxiety will be evaluated at baseline (T0), after 12 sessions (T1), at 3 months (T2), and at 6 months (T3).
**Description:** The Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ), translated into Brazilian Portuguese, contains two sub-scales that are evaluated separately: fear-avoidance beliefs related to work (FABQ-work) and physical activity (FABQ-physical). Fear avoidance related to physical activity will be considered present (score ≥15) or absent (\<15), while fear avoidance related to work will be considered present if the FABQ-work score is ≥ 34.
**Measure:** Fear Avoidance Beliefs
**Time Frame:** The participants' fear avoidance beliefs will be evaluated at baseline (T0), after 12 sessions (T1), at 3 months (T2), and at 6 months (T3).

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Current first-line treatments for major depression (antidepressants and psychotherapy) show a long latency to response, and less than half of all patients experience full remission with optimized treatment, indicating the need for new developments. The aim of this study is to extend and further develop a longstanding line of research of using sleep neurophysiology as a 'window to the brain' and treatment development in major depression. Particularly, this project is designed to test the feasibility, efficacy and mechanisms of action of a new sleep-based treatment technology.
**Detailed Description:** The planned study is a single-centre, doubled-blind, randomized, sham controlled, repeated measures within-subject (stimulation and sham) study including patients with major depression and healthy controls, across four sleep laboratory nights (adaptation, baseline, stimulation and sham in counterbalanced order). The investigators will test the primary hypothesis that auditory-closed loop suppression of slow wave sleep will improve depressive clinical symptomatology compared to sham stimulation.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Postoperative complications can occur in up to 50% of individuals undergoing colorectal resection and are associated with poor prognosis, increased costs, and lower health-related quality of life. Even in the absence of complications, after major surgery, patients reduce their physiological and functional capacity by 20-40% and show a higher level of fatigue for 6-8 weeks. Many of these negative effects can be decreased by applying specific ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) programs which, by attenuating the neuro-endocrine response induced by surgical trauma, accelerate patients\' post-operative convalescence and facilitate their return to functional activities.
In this study, the research group hypothesizes that a prehabilitation program based on physical exercise, nutritional optimization and psychological support (trimodal) carried out by patients in the 4 weeks before elective colorectal resection surgery can determine: 1) better physical performance 8 weeks after surgery (measured by the 6-minute walk test), 2) a possible decrease in postoperative complications, and 3) a reduction in in-hospital (direct) and post-hospital discharge (indirect) costs.
**Detailed Description:** This study aims to determine the effect of prehabilitation on patients\' functional capacity and postoperative complications. It is a randomized trial including 112 patients undergoing colorectal surgery for cancer. Patients will be allocated to intervention group receiving 4 weeks trimodal prehabilitation (N=56) or control group receiving no prehabilitation (N=56). After surgery, both groups will follow 8 weeks rehabilitation based on Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) guidelines. The primary endpoint is functional capacity, secondary outcomes include postoperative complications and a cost-effectiveness analysis. Multimodal prehabilitation is expected to increase functional capacity and lower postoperative complications.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The objective of this pathway is to establish and evaluate a novel Indigenous-led patient navigator (IPN) program for Indigenous adolescents living with chronic health conditions in Maskwacis, Alberta. Over the last three years a community-based participatory research partnership was developed with Elders and community members from Maskwacis, Maskwacis Health Services, and researchers from the University of Alberta. Previous research identified the need for an IPN to support Indigenous young adults and their caregivers in managing their health conditions transitioning into adulthood and transferring from pediatric to adult healthcare. The aim of partnership now is to evaluate whether a community-derived IPN program co-designed with an established group of Maskwacis Elders, Knowledge Keepers, healthcare providers, caregivers and youth with lived experience can aid in improving the experience of transitioning into adult healthcare services for Indigenous youth and their families living in Maskwacis, Alberta.
**Detailed Description:** Purpose: to implement and evaluate a novel Indigenous Patient Navigator (IPN) pathway for Indigenous young adults with complex and chronic medical conditions, and their families, living in Maskwacis, AB learning to manage their health condition transitioning into adulthood.
Hypothesis: the Indigenous-Led Pathway for Young Adults will provide substantial benefits to youth and families, including but not limited to cultural ceremony and Elder-support, emotional support, accessing medical appointments and preventing loss to follow-up, feeling engaged with the adult health care system, developing self-management and self-advocacy skills, and reducing feelings of anxiety and isolation. The investigators expect the pathway will improve the health of Indigenous adolescents and young adults living with chronic health conditions in Maskwacîs, ultimately improving the wellbeing of the entire community.
Justification: The investigators' previous research has identified key barriers to care included finances (e.g., cost and availability of transportation to healthcare appointments), intergenerational trauma making it difficult to prioritize the health condition, racism and discrimination in health care settings, lack of cultural safety, and loss of benefits at age 18 (e.g., Jordan's Principle does not apply to young adults). Facilitating factors identified include family support and culture, peer support networks, health condition education, and having safe spaces in healthcare settings where Indigenous imagery and medicines were visibly displayed.
During a series of in-person meetings with our Community Advisory Committee (CAC) the Investigators discussed study findings and possible strategies to address them. The Elders and Knowledge Keepers concluded that a community-based, Indigenous-led patient navigator service would be a logical approach to helping transition-age youth navigate the healthcare system between pediatric and adult care. It was felt that both the barriers and facilitators summarized above provided evidence for the need for an IPN, and that an IPN could help mitigate some of the social determinants of health that prevent adolescents and young adults from attending medical appointments, filling prescriptions, and managing their health condition(s). IPN programs in Canada exist in acute care settings, children's hospitals, cancer care, and adult outpatient settings. To the Investigators' knowledge, a community based IPN program focusing on transition age youth does not yet exist in Canada.
Objectives
1. To strengthen the existing partnership with the CAC and Maskwacis Health Services, through regular gatherings, engaging in ceremony and traditions, respecting cultural protocol, encouraging feedback, and ensuring our committee members guide the project's activities to benefit the community in a good way.
2. To co-design and implement a novel IPN service for Indigenous adolescents with special health care needs residing in Maskwacis through community engagement sessions and meetings with senior management of Maskwacis Health Services and Alberta Health Services.
3. To evaluate the IPN service, addressing the following questions:
1. How do Indigenous youth transitioning into adult care describe their experiences of transitioning, the role of the IPN in helping them through this transition, and the impact of the IPN program on the Indigenous perspective of health and wellness?
2. How can these findings promote improved outcomes for Indigenous youth in transition?
4. To create sustainability of the IPN role within the Maskwacis community and enable the creation of an IPN program for transition-age youth in other Indigenous communities in Alberta, both on- and off-reserve.
Research Method/Procedures
Study design and setting: Qualitative study to evaluate an IPN program using a community-based participatory action research approach. The study will be conducted with and within the community of Maskwacis, Alberta, Maskwacis Health Services and the Awasisak Indigenous Health Program at the Stollery Children's Hospital. Maskwacis is located approximately 90 km southeast of Edmonton. It has a population of \~18 000 residents divided among Four Nations (Samson, Louis Bull, Ermineskin, Montana) and a small satellite location in Pigeon Lake.
Participant Recruitment: The CAC and community members will assist Investigators to find ways to recruit participants from the community. A community-based research assistant (RA) will approach potentially eligible participants at participating recruitment clinics.
IPN Role: The IPN role will be co-designed and implemented based on thorough community engagement including the CAC, Alberta Health Services and Maskwacis Health Services. Allowing flexibility within the role and developing the IPN role with guidance from the CAC and community will allow the IPN to serve participants, families and the community in the most appropriate and effective way.
Below is a list of supports that may potentially be provided to participants by the IPN:
1. Connect participants with community supports including housing, social assistance, disability payments, education, and employment opportunities.
2. Connect participants with cultural resources: cultural programming and events, ceremony, connection with Elders.
3. Scheduling primary care and/or specialty care appointments as appropriate to address specific medical/mental health needs.
4. Accessing transportation to medical and social service appointments.
5. Providing in person support and advocacy for participants during health care appointments.
6. Work with the participant to create a smart phone-based health passport containing key information about their health condition, names and doses of medications, schedule of upcoming appointments, and contact names, phone number and addresses for their doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals. For participants not having access to a smartphone, this information will be provided on a wallet-sized card.
7. Support adherence to follow-up clinic visits and health maintenance including completing clinically indicated laboratory tests and obtaining prescription refills as needed.
8. Assist with financial and insurance paperwork (e.g., Jordan's Principal, Non-Insured Health Benefits, Alberta Income for the Severely Handicapped).
9. Promote self-management skills by providing tools, educational resources, and coaching.
10. Facilitate in-person group sessions open to all participants at a community hall. Group sessions reduce isolation, empower youth to build connections, advocate for themselves and each other, and incorporate Indigenous cultural ceremonies.
Navigators will use electronic technology (cell phone, email, text message, social media) to maintain contact and provide support for participants. The needs of each participant will vary and hence the program will be participant and family-centered and specific. There will be no a priori limits on the frequency of contact between the navigator and participant; contact may be as frequent as daily, or as infrequently as every 2 months at a minimum, depending on participants' needs.
Health Information Access + Documentation:
Participants will be asked for permission for the research team and IPN to review their health information within their Electronic Medical Record within Alberta Health Services and Maskwacis Health Services databases, so the IPN can understand their health condition and how they use the health care system during this transition. The IPN will record every contact and nature of assistance provided using the AHS EMR Connect Care, in a standardized encounter format.
IPN training: Plan for an Indigenous identifying individual who has a minimum of a Bachelor of Social Work or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, and experience working with adolescents and/or young adults in a community setting. The IPN will be trained by a) other IPNs in Alberta (e.g., Four Winds Program, led by team member Dr. Oster), b) staff at the Awasisak Indigenous Health Program at the Stollery with AHS onboarding and orientation as appropriately determined by the reporting manager, c) a non-Indigenous patient navigator at the Stollery, affiliated with the Transition Navigator Trial led by team member Dr. Mackie, and d) staff at Maskwacis Health Services. The IPN will receive privacy and confidentiality training as per TCPS-2, as well as AHS Privacy and Confidentiality Training. Most importantly, the IPN will be continually involved with the team's CAC to receive guidance and feedback on the IPN role and implementation and engage in ceremony.
Study Logistics:
1. Navigator Meeting: The IPN will schedule a face-to-face meeting with the participant, or with caregiver(s) if the participant has developmental delay precluding their participation independent of a caregiver, or both. Prior to the meeting the IPN will review the electronic medical record of the youth participant to understand their health condition and access of healthcare. During this meeting the IPN will complete an assessment of the participant's healthcare needs and learn about the participant's journey with their health condition, as well as build trust and rapport with the family. Using the information from both the interview, as well as from review of their electronic medical record, the navigator will create an individual-centered transition plan, in collaboration with the participant, caregiver(s), and if needed with community partners.
2. Navigator support: Participants will then work with the IPN for up to 18 months. Support offered by the IPN is previously described under "IPN Role".
3. Peer Support Sessions + Talking Circles: The IPN will organize peer support sessions for study participants held every 3 months in-person in Maskwacis. Both youth participants and caregiver participants are invited to take part in peer support sessions. The purpose of these sessions will be to build a sense of community for youth living with chronic health conditions and their caregivers, reduce isolation, and empower participants to develop self-management and self-advocacy skills together in an engaging and fun environment. Life skills topics such as budgeting and job interviewing will be included. A community Elder will attend the peer sessions to provide cultural ceremony and share traditional teachings such as smudging and prayer. During the sessions talking circles will be offered for participants to engage in discussion with Elders and each other regarding their experience working with the IPN. Participants may attend as many or as little of the peer support sessions as they wish.
4. Exit Interview: Participants will complete a follow-up semi-structured interview, held either in-person or virtually, conducted by the RA to ask about their experience receiving IPN support. Feedback will be elicited on what aspects of IPN support was helpful and what could be improved upon. Healthcare providers who work at clinic sites where recruitment took place will also be asked to take part in an individual interview about how the IPN service impacted their practice and care provision to Indigenous youth and their families.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The purpose of the study is to see that in addition to existing therapy, how well an additional procedure named spinal cord stimulation might reduce blood vessel spasm from aneurysm rupture.
**Detailed Description:** The Investigators' overarching hypothesis is that sympathetic innervation plays a substantial role in conferring cerebral vasospasm (CVS) risk to aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) patients and is associated with severity of clinical features and outcomes. Specifically, the Investigators surmise that central (hypothalamic) and local (arterial adventitia) sympathetic inputs are upregulated following SAH and integrate at the level of the neuromuscular junction to abnormally increase cerebrovascular tone. The long-term goal of this program is to use orthogonal approaches to undertake a comprehensive electrophysiological, functional genomics, and advanced imaging analysis of CVS. The Investigators hope is these data inform therapeutic pathways to modulate implicated pathogenic mechanisms and reduce CVS incidence and severity, thereby improving overall clinical outcomes in aSAH. In the short-term, the Investigators will focus on elucidating the modulatory role of cervical spinal cord stimulator (SCS) on sympathetic innervation to the cerebral vasculature.
This is a Phase 2 prospective, randomized single center study assessing the safety and efficacy of SCS for reducing vasospasm. aSAH patients who meet inclusion criteria and provide informed consent will be randomly assigned to SCS or a sham procedure. Subjects will be blinded until the end of the study, with no allowance for crossover. Temporary leads will stimulate, utilizing a paradigm established from prior human studies and the effect measured with daily transcranial doppler (TCD). Leveraging prior experience in vascular and functional neurosurgery, the Investigators' group is poised to make a substantial impact. Below the Investigators outline a feasible framework to modulate sympathetic drivers of CVS.
Aim 1: Perform feasibility analysis of SCS placement and operation in the aSAH setting. It is presently unknown how temporary SCS will impact the workflow and care of patients with acutely ruptured cerebral aneurysms. Given the rate of new aSAH cases at the Investigators' center (\~50 per year), initiation of prospective data collection and longitudinal study are required. The Investigators will comprehensively assess operative time for electrode implantation, lead function and data transmission efficiency in the ICU, site infection/pressure injury and untoward systemic effects (hypotension, arrhythmia) for all patients enrolled at the Investigators' center.
Aim 2: Quantify the sympathetic modulating effect of SCS on cerebral blood flow during CVS. Further characterization of the sympathetic contribution to CVS will establish a rationale for functional/neuromodulatory therapies such as SCS. The Investigators will perform cervical epidural stimulation through temporary leads and monitor effects on cerebral blood flow by daily TCD. Experiments will continue throughout the 14-day CVS window to capture longitudinal changes in sympathetic tone and vascular response. Quantitative TCD metrics (velocity, resistance, Lindegaard ratio) will be compared between on- and off-stimulation epochs. The Investigators' study will not only fundamentally advance the Investigators' understanding of vasospasm, but also provide a framework to elucidate mechanisms of other cerebrovascular conditions.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The primary objective of this study is to examine a single-session, 2-hour group intervention provided to a population of transgender or gender-diverse patients with chronic pain prior to gender-affirming surgery, to determine if participants who receive the intervention have less pain-related distress compared to participants randomly assigned to the control group.
**Detailed Description:** The primary objective of this study is to examine a single-session, 2-hour group intervention provided to a population of transgender and gender-diverse patients with chronic pain prior to gender-affirming surgery, to determine if participants who receive the intervention have less pain-related distress compared to participants randomly assigned to the control group. This study will help extend the research literature on chronic pain experienced by transgender patients, and specifically will examine if a brief, group intervention is effective for reducing pain catastrophizing and pain distress prior to surgery.
Safety and effectiveness of the Empowered Relief intervention used in this study has been demonstrated in multiple clinical trials, but has not been studied yet with this particular population. The Empowered relief intervention was created by Beth Darnall © Stanford University.
The hypothesis of this research study is that transgender patients with chronic pain who receive the group intervention, prior to having a gender-affirming surgery, will have lower scores on the pain catastrophizing scale after completing the intervention compared to participants in the control group:
Hypothesis: µ1 \<(\<=) µ2. The primary endpoint of this study is to test if the mean change in the score on the Pain Catastrophizing Scale is different between the treatment and the control group. The secondary endpoint, is to examine if pain severity scores decreased. An exploratory endpoint, after data collection and analysis is complete, is to run a focus group with participants who received the intervention to learn more about their experience to inform future treatment and research. Safety endpoints are that participants will receive informed consent, which will include learning they may discontinue participation in the study at any time, as well as procedures for maintaining confidentiality of identifying information. Each person screened will already be referred to the Transgender Health Program by a primary care provider and/or mental health provider. If screening indicates that a person has severe depression or regular thoughts involving suicidal content, then that person will not be included in the study but instead will be offered resources and highly recommended to contact their referring provider for additional support.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** This measure is a 13-item self-assessment instrument of pain-related negative thoughts, and measures constructs of rumination, magnification and helplessness. It is the primary outcome measure of this research study. Each item is measured on a 5-point Likert scale, with endpoints 0 (not at all) to 4 (all the time) and possible scores ranging from 0-52. In a clinical setting, such as a pain clinic providing treatments for chronic pain, a score on this measure of "10" or higher indicates a person could benefit from treatment; however, the published cut-off scores are higher and as follows: a Total Score of 20 is considered in the average range (50th percentile), and a Total Score of \>= 30 is above average (75th percentile). This measure is shown to have excellent internal consistency (coefficient alphas: total PCS = .87, rumination = .87, magnification = .66, and helplessness = .78.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Individuals with spinal cord injury have heart attacks and strokes more frequently, and much earlier in life. People with spinal cord injuries develop plaque in vessels much faster, and the reasons why are unclear. Doctors generally attributed the increased risk with weight gain and developing diabetes, but many studies have shown that even without these common factors, plaque in vessels is developing more often and faster. Endothelial cells are a single layer of cells that line all vessels in the body and plays an important role in vessel health. Damage to endothelial cells is known to lead to heart attacks and strokes. Past studies on endothelial cells of people with spinal cord injury have been unclear. The investigators have new data that these cells are unhealthy after spinal cord injury a measurement. This includes measuring endothelial health by directly altering its function using a catheter in the arm and measuring small particles in blood called endothelial microvesicles. If the project is successful, the investigators will learn important information on the health of endothelial cells after spinal cord injury. The investigators will also be able to use these markers of endothelial cell function to create treatments to improve vessel health and prevent heart attacks and strokes later in life in people with spinal cord injury.
**Detailed Description:** Adults with spinal cord injury (SCI) demonstrate accelerated atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) occurring \~4 fold more often, and decades earlier in life. Importantly, atherosclerosis has been detected in people with SCI independent of traditional risk factors, much earlier in life, and appear recalcitrant to conventional risk mitigating inventions such as exercise and diet. Also, as disease is silent, many individuals are not screened for this atherosclerotic burden and only aware after the major vascular event of a myocardial infarction or stroke. The mechanisms which drive early ASCVD is unknown. Endothelial cell dysfunction precedes radiographic or angiographic evidence of atherosclerosis, and plays a central role in the development, progression and severity of atherosclerotic vascular disease. While it has been suggested that SCI results in compromised endothelial health, there is little empirical data on the degree or scope of impairment as well as mechanisms underlying any potential impairment. Endothelial dysfunction may be an important factor underlying the increased risk and prevalence of ASCVD and associated events in adults with SCI and a viable target for therapeutic intervention. Preliminary data suggests primary endothelial cell impairment related to its vasodilator function and provide potential mechanisms related to oxidative stress burden. The investigators also present the potential of endothelial cell derived microvesicles as a biomarker and mediator of endothelial cell dysfunction. The aim of this proposal is to determine whether endothelial function is impaired in adults with SCI. Our hypothesis is that endothelium-dependent vasodilation is impaired in adults with SCI and oxidative stress and endothelial cell derived microvesicles contribute to this dysfunction. Results supporting this hypothesis will: 1) provide mechanistic insight into the excess risk of ASCVD in adults with SCI; 2) identify therapeutic targets for reducing cardiovascular risk in this population; and 3) provide scientific rationale for vascular-related treatment clinical trials aimed at improving vascular health and reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with SCI.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Surgical management is one of the most frequently used interventions in the treatment of many cancers, but it can be associated with a high risk of postoperative complications.
The maintenance and optimization of functional abilities before, during and after treatment are major for elderly cancer patients, as it is now well established that there is a link between the level of functional capacity and the occurrence of these complications.
The scientific literature shows that the benefits of pre- and post-operative training programs, but these benefits only apply to a fraction of the patients adhering to the programs. The modalities of intervention (training load, follow-up, etc.) as well as patient involvement in these programs are major issues that need to be addressed to optimize their benefits.
Individualizing pre-habilitation, on the basis of the management of the training load, and therefore objective fatigue, would enable better patient adherence to the program, and optimize its benefits.
In this context, the PRIMECHO project aims to individualize pre-habilitation in order to improve functional of patients in the pre-habilitation or accelerated recovery after surgery phase. The aim is for the patient to be in optimum physical condition at the time of the intervention or treatment.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study aimed to asses predictive factors associated with successful cervical cerclage and poor pregnancy outcomes in all indications.129 pregnant women who underwent cerclage at 12-25 weeks gestation in a perinatal medical center were included. The patients were divided into three subgroups for data analysis. Groups included patients with respectively history-indicated cerclage (group 1), ultrasound-indicated cerclage (group 2), and rescue cerclage (group 3). The investigators defined successful cerclage as postponing birth until after the 28th week of gestation and a 'good outcome' was defined as delivery beyond 34 completed weeks.Factors associated with successful cervical cerclage and perinatal outcomes after the procedure for all three groups were analyzed. The investigators also calculated post-cerclage the cervical length cut-off value required to predict if birth could be postponed until after the 28th week of gestation in women with cervical insufficiency.
**Detailed Description:** This study retrospectively reviewed data from pregnant women who underwent cerclage from July 2021 to July 2023 in Çam and Sakura City Hospital, which is a perinatal medical center in Istanbul, Turkey. The local ethics committee approved the study.
All procedures followed the relevant guidelines and regulations of the institutional ethics review board and the Declaration of Helsinki.
The patients were divided into three subgroups for data analysis. Group 1 included patients with history-indicated cerclage, who had second-trimester pregnancy loss associated with painless cervical dilatation in the absence of labor or placental abruption, or previous cerclage due to painless cervical dilatation in the second trimester. Group 2 comprised patients with ultrasound-indicated cerclage, who had a history of spontaneous preterm birth before the 34th week previously and their cervical length (CL) was \<25 mm before the 24th week of gestation in the current singleton pregnancy, or who had \<10 mm cervical length in the current singleton pregnancy without history. Group 3 consisted of patients undergoing rescue cerclage, who had premature cervical dilatation and exposure of fetal membranes in the vagina, was detected in ultrasound or speculum examination of the cervix. All cervical cerclage procedures were performed by a senior obstetrician using the McDonald technique with Mersilene tape or No:1 proline. The investigators collected the following data from medical records: maternal age at cervical cerclage, gravidity, parity, body mass index, history of a cervical cone biopsy, history of premature birth and cervical cerclage, procalcitonin level, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, gestational age at cerclage, pre-and post-cerclage CL, week of birth, pregnancy complications (preterm premature rupture of the membranes (PPROM), abruptio placenta, chorioamnionitis). The investigators defined successful cerclage as postponing birth until after the 28th week of gestation and a 'good outcome' was defined as delivery beyond 34 completed weeks. The indications and the pregnancy outcomes (miscarriage, gestational age at delivery, birth weight, prolongation of pregnancy, and rate of preterm birth before 34 weeks) of cervical cerclage were reviewed and the factors associated with successful cervical cerclage were analyzed.
Moreover, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to calculate the pre-cerclage and post-cerclage CL cut-off value required to predict if birth could be postponed birth until after the 28th week of gestation in women with cervical insufficiency (CI). Thus, the investigators extracted significant factors for a successful cervical cerclage for long-term pregnancy sustenance in women with CI.

**Brief Summary:** In this study, it is aimed to compare cold needle and shotblocker in intramuscular injection pain. This is a triple-blind randomized clinical trial. June September 2024, the universe of the research will be composed of patients who applied to the emergency department of Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Medicine Hospital for cyanocobalamin injection. Considering that losses may occur during the data collection process, the study will be completed with a total of 120 patients. Intramuscular injection of the deltoid November will be applied to the intervention-1 group with a cold needle, intervention-2 group with a shotblocker, and the control group with the standard method. People will be determined by block randomization. After each application, the pain and satisfaction due to the injection will be evaluated. The data will be compared between the groups.
**Detailed Description:** This study aims to compare cold injection and ShotBlocker in intramuscular injection pain. This is a triple-blind randomized clinical trial. The population of the research will consist of patients who applied to the emergency department of Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Medicine Hospital to receive cyanocobalamin injection between June and September 2024. Considering that losses may occur during the data collection process, the study will be completed with a total of 120 patients. The data of the study will be collected with the "Patient Diagnosis Form", "Visual Analog Scale (VAS)" and "Injection Satisfaction Scale". Block randomization method will be used to assign participants to groups. All injections will be performed by a single nurse working in the injection unit in accordance with the research procedure. Once the injection procedure is completed, participants will be asked to rate injection pain and satisfaction. Pain assessment will be performed by another emergency nurse who is independent from the study and contributes to the study. Researchers will participate in this process as observers. The people who will perform the application and evaluate the pain and satisfaction will be different. In this way, the person evaluating the pain will not know which application was performed on the participant, and blinding will be ensured. Additionally, the data of the study will be coded as A, B and C and entered into SPSS, thus ensuring statistical blinding. Thus, it is planned to conduct the research with triple blinding. All injections will be made using cyanocobalamin injection (1 ml), 5 cc syringe, 25 Gauge orange syringe tip. Before the injection, it will be checked whether the pain score is "0" with VAS. The participant will be given a Fowler position, the deltoid area will be checked on the arm to be treated, the arm will be flexed and brought closer to the body, and the position will be given. Injections will be given to each group according to the IM injection application protocol. Intramuscular injection will be applied to the deltoid muscle in the intervention-1 group, with a cold needle, in the intervention-2 group, with a shot blocker, and in the control group, with the standard method. Subjects will be determined by block randomization. All participants will be allowed to rest for two minutes after each injection. After two minutes, they will be asked to mark the level of pain caused by the procedure on the VAS. Similarly, they will be asked to mark their satisfaction with the procedure on the injection satisfaction scale. Then, the line marked by the person will be measured with a 10 cm ruler and the numerical equivalent of pain and satisfaction will be determined. Data will be compared between groups.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The use of patient-reported outcome (PROs) have become increasingly commonplace across many healthcare settings over the past two decades. The value of PROs is now acknowledged by healthcare providers and patients alike. However, to date, little is known about the best practices for formulating PRO measures (PROMS), but even more specifically, the effect had on the responding patients as a result of item word choice, emotional valence, or frequency of use. That is, 1) does the positive or negative wording of items affect the patient's perspective on the latent variable, 2) is there a degree of subliminal influence or measurement effects on their behaviour resulting from exposure to PROs, and finally, 3) is such an effect amplified with repeated exposure?
**Detailed Description:** There is currently sufficient evidence to suggest that attributes such as the wording of questions, their presentation order, the context where they are asked, and the item's social sensitivity (e.g. I do not abuse my prescriptions), have an effect on participant responses (1,2). This family of variables are most oft referred to as method effects. Method effects largely regard the phenomenon in which the presentation of an item affects the participant's response independent of the content in question. The end goal within this area of study is to correct for any response bias resulting from the items used. This research primarily concerns psychometrics. It is important to note that while method effects relate to the research questions proposed, it is not the key feature of interest. The ensuing inquiry will not simply focus directly on changes to item responses, but instead, on changes to patient perceptions and behaviours as a result of their exposure to the measures themselves. This has been coined the mere-measurement effect (3) Research supports the claim that asking certain questions can influence behaviours on the same topic (4,5). For example, a randomized-control trial was conducted to assess the impact of asking questions pertaining to blood donation habits of the participants. The researchers found that the subjects whom were asked about their habits were significantly more likely to donate blood than their control counter parts at the following blood-drive (6). Other researchers found that when clinicians did not ask patients with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) to report whether they were currently medicated on a disease-related severity questionnaire, patients were more likely to report un-medicated symptomologies (7). In other words, patients on ADHD medications responded more symptomatically similar to their un-medicated selves when their medication status was not included on the questionnaire. This suggests that the medication status item itself, may have mitigated ADHD symptoms by bringing the patient's treatment into a higher state of awareness/directing attention.
Thus, it may be that asking patients about their intent to have an operation increases the likelihood of them opting for it, or, that asking them about their exercise increases their physical activity level. If so, this may have significant implications for the effect of routinely collecting patient-reported outcomes (PROs), as well as for utilizing measurements as interventions. However, before value can be attached to such an effect, first the presence and strength must be evaluated in the patient-specific context.
To date, no mere-measurement effect factors have been investigated in the context of patient-reported outcomes measures (PROMs) and particularly not in regard to how they may influence patient perceptions and behaviours. Therefore, exploration of this family of effects must be reduced to a few key anticipated features, namely, emotional valence (positive/negative) and frequency. For instance, would wording a cleft-lip question negatively, such as "I do not like my face", actually decrease the patient's preference for their own face, and, does repeated exposure to this question increase the magnitude of the effect.
This randomized controlled trial (RCT) review will be the first to the authors' knowledge to examine if measuring patient- reported outcomes directly effects their corresponding behaviour, and if this effect can be attributed in part to item wording and/or frequency of exposure.
PROMs \& Speech Disorders Three recent reviews regarding patient-reported outcomes in speech pathologies were identified (8,9,10). Francis et al. list a number of PRO measures that were designed for administration with subjects with any kind of voice disorders. The Evaluating Voice Disability-Quality of Life Questionaire (EVD-QOL) aims at assessing the general range of functional problems in voice disorders. The 30-items Voice Handicap Index (VHI) and its 10-items short version VHI-10 aim at providing a psychometrically robust voice diasability/handicap inventory. The Voice-Related Quality of Life (V-RQOL) aims at measuring the impact of voice problems on the quality of life. The Voice Activity and Participation Profile (VAPP) aims at identifying voice activity limitation and participation restriction separately. The Voice Symptom Scale (VoiSS) is an inventory of voice symptoms for assessing baseline pathology and response to change. The Communicative Participation Item Bank (CPIB) aims at assessing communication participation in all kinds of communication disorders. The Voice Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (VSEQ) monitors self-efficacy in individuals with self-declared voice problems before and after interventions. The Vocal Fatigue Handicap Questionnaire (VFHQ) and the Vocal Fatigue Index (VFI) aim at reflecting vocal fatigue.
Additional PROs include the Aging Voice Index, the Evaluation of the Ability to Sing Easily, the Glottal Function Index, the Linear Analog Scale of Assessment of Voice Quality, the Speech Disability Questionnaire, the Trans Woman Voice Questionnaire, the Vocal Cord Dysfunction Questionnaire, and the Vocal Tract Discomfort Scale Slavych, Zraick \& Ruleman, 2021.
The researchers have opted to use the CPIB and the VHI because these are well established and the former covers all kinds of communication disorders, while the VHI is using particularly negative wording in its original form.
1.2 STUDY RATIONALE The purpose of the mere-measurement study is to identify the most advantageous way to measure outcomes for patients. This will be accomplished by collecting measures on the same topic at different time intervals and with different wording of questions. The findings of this study should help researchers and clinicians collect measurements from patients in the least burdensome and most beneficial manner possible.
The primary objective of the mere-measurement study is to assess the effects of different collection methods on the responders wellbeing.
The secondary objectives of this study are to:
* What frequency of collection is best for patients?
* What style of question wording is best for patients?
Research Questions:
* Does the assigned positivity or negativity of an item effect patient perception or behaviour on the topic inquired?
* Does frequency of exposure to an item have an effect on patient perception or behaviour of the topic inquired?
Hypotheses:
H1 = The more a patient reads and responds to questions about their speech condition the more their speech condition will be affected.
H2 = The directionality of impact on a speech condition will be congruent with the emotional valence of the items used.
STUDY DESIGN Once a subject has agreed to participate in this study, they will be asked to complete online questionnaires as well as record their voice reading a collection of random words 2-4 times.
This study follows a 2x2 design. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups. Randomization will be accomplished by using the MUW randomizer. Participants will be stratified by education and speech disorder type. The healthy case control group will undergo case matching to ensure comparability across groups. Each group will receive two brief speech pathology severity questionnaires but at different frequencies, and with slight adjustments to the wording. Depending on the experimental group, a subject will complete the questionnaires either two or four times, separated each time by one week. The questionnaires, in all groups, will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Lastly, at the very start and once at the very end of the study, every participant will also be asked to record a brief 45 second audio file in the online survey as well as complete two additional psychological questionnaires.
The measures in this study cover the following tools (complete measures are uploaded in the ECS):
* A patient-reported outcome on voice health - Voice Handicap Index (VHI) or Voice Handicap Index Positively adapted (VHI-PA)
* A patient-reported outcome on speech health - Communicative Participation Item Bank (CPIB) or Communicative Participation Item Bank Positively adapted (CPIB-PA)
* A self-esteem stability scale - Self-Esteem Stability Scale (SESS)
* A self-esteem scale - Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSS)
* Two question measure of disease impact (2DB)
* A single-question measure of disease activity (1DS)
* Audio recording of text read aloud (ARec)
Study population All patients with Muscle tension dysphonia, Inducible laryngeal obstruction, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), suffering from a stroke or other brain injury/damage/trauma, (aphasia, dysarthria), and Parkinson's disease will be targeted for recruitment. There are no geographic location requirements. The participation schedule can be found below. Patients will be informed of the schedule in advance. A subject must complete any respective sampling epoch within 48 hours of the prescribed date in order to qualify as completed. Subjects must also have strong English skills and be technologically savvy to participate. Only adults will be included in the study.

\*completed prior to assessments
\*English was chosen as the study language as a wider range of validated assessments exist in this language. The AI used for speech analysis is also best suited for and trained (66%) on English. Lastly, English is the most prolific language (native + secondary speakers) in the world which will facilitate the speed of recruitment.
Subjects who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from study entry:
• Under the age of 18
NUMBER OF SUBJECTS PARTICIPATING IN THE STUDY Subjects will be randomly separated into six groups including control and healthy control, with approximately 33 subjects per group. A formal power analysis was performed using G\*power with parameters sourced from relevant seminal research (Conner et al., 2011; Godin et al., 2011). The following parameters were used for the sample size analysis: two-tailed directionality; effect size of 0.30; a priori computation, anticipated power of 0.95, and an error rate of 0.0023. Means difference tests between independent groups within the t-test family were utilized.
RECRUITMENT PROCEDURE Recruitment into the mere-measurement study will be performed supported by Probando. Probando is a previously approved patient recruitment service that specializes in online advertising. All recruitment materials are uploaded to the ECS. A description of the Probando recruitment service and procedures can be found as an attachment, as well as the recruitment materials for all subjects including healthy controls and a screenshot of the currently inactive landing page. As a part of their service, Probando uses the study inclusion and exclusion criteria to screen potential interested subjects. If they qualify and permit contact, their contact information will be provided to the MUW researchers for direct outreach. Therefore, all study timings, measures, and data will be distributed and collected only by the study researchers. Patients will be able to withdraw from the study at any time without providing a reason. To limit potential bias, an initial self-report of an official diagnosis is required to participate. Additionally, the patients will also confirm their diagnosis with a checkbox, for the purpose of minimizing the risk of malingering patients. If an individual is highly motivated to participate and does not suffer from a qualifying speech disorder they can still apply to participate as a healthy control. Furthermore, this sample would be more representative of a telemedicine community.
DATA SOURCES
Participants' and study data will be recorded in the study database. Study data will be collected at defined time points (see Section 1.5) using a single online format:
• SoSci survey (www.soscisurvey.de) is a routinely used, safe, online questionnaire distribution and data retrieval platform. Within this platform, five links will be created, one for each group. These will connect subjects to the questionnaires and to the instructions for capturing the audio file.
An email address for every participant will be required for communication and dissemination of participation credits. All individuals with access to participants' personal information are obligated to respect their privacy and only use and disclose their information as described in the informed consent document.
Demographic information and mere-measurement study results are secured against unauthorized access. Security measures reduce the risk of unauthorized individuals accessing subject personal information, but such risks cannot be entirely eliminated. All audio recordings will be stored only for the duration of the study. Upon closure, they will be deleted.
The information collected from the mere-measurement study will be kept confidential. Subject personal information will be stored safely at MUW and pseudonymized as discussed in the previous section.
DATA COLLECTION
Online, subjects will complete a battery of questionnaires totalling approximately 15-20 minutes of time following the informed consent. Informed consent will be collected online via the SoSci survey tool. The following parameters will be applied to the virtual informed consent:
• The patient information including the data protection section is displayed above the checkbox. The patients are informed about what happens to their data, their benefits, and risks in sufficient detail but simple detail in this section.
• The checkbox says that patients have read and understood the text and that they agree.
• The patients will confirm their diagnosis with a checkbox, for the purpose of minimizing the risk of malingering patients Depending on the group assigned, a participant will have to complete this battery either 2 or 4 times. The control and healthy group will complete only demographics questions and the audio recordings, no PROMs will be collected. The four intervention groups will be randomized using a digital randomization tool provided by the MUW (https://www.meduniwien.ac.at/randomizer/ ).
All patients, across all intervention groups, will complete the read-aloud activity prior to the first collection of PROMs. This will serve as the baseline for later comparison. Following the first recording, all subsequent recordings will be completed after completing the PROMs. An electronic bank transfer form (MUW standard bank form) will be emailed to participants at the end of the study to complete the 50€ transfer. These electronic records will be immediately destroyed upon successful completion.
DATA MANAGEMENT Patient-reported data will be captured using SoSci survey with an account owned by the Center for Outcomes Research. These data will not be transferred outside of the MUW. Data transfers between the investigators of this study will be managed using procedures described in a jointly developed Data Transfer Plan. All data transferred between the two MUW centers, speech pathology and outcome research, will be identified only by a subject ID code, unless otherwise consented by patients and agreed upon in the Data Transfer Plan.
DATA QUALITY ASSURANCE Patients will consent that pseudonymized patient data will be hosted and analysed at the MUW. MUW will not share the data with any third parties or collaborators. MUW regularly processes medical data and is subject to the GDPR requirements. MUW is responsible for data quality and will perform oversight of the data management of this study. Investigators and study coordinators will receive an initial training session on the protocol, study flow, study database, survey tool, documentation, and expectations, and any applicable study processes. Access to data for secondary use cases will not be enabled.

**Brief Summary:** Allergy is a hypersensitivity reaction to a triggering agent. Tests used in allergy are divided into two: in vivo and in vitro. Among the in vivo tests routinely used, epidermal, intradermal and patch tests are used, and the most commonly used is the skin prick test. In order to prevent the negative effects of pain, it is important to be informed about the appropriate approach to children, newborns and babies, and effective pain management, according to their cognitive development levels. Pain management in children should be done appropriately with accurate assessment tools. This will increase the quality of life, reduce hospitalizations, shorten the length of hospital stay and reduce costs. Pain experiences experienced during childhood will cause later pain experiences to be perceived as more severe and cause anxiety and fear. Anxiety is a psychological, physiological and behavioral state that develops in response to a perceived or existing threat. Anxiety, which can also be expressed as worry or anxiety, is a emotional state that can occur in various ways, such as restlessness, tension, easy fatigue, lack of concentration, muscle tension, and sleep disturbance, in which autonomic and somatic symptoms occur in the body, without any reason.
Virtual reality provides multi-sensory information as children focus on the simulated world. Virtual reality, one of the cognitive methods; It can create an environment where three-dimensional pictures or animations created on the computer can interact in people's minds. It is also defined as a distraction method created by software, which creates the feeling that users are in the environment even though they are not in the real environment, and can interact with people in the environment. When all these studies were examined, no three-group study was found comparing a distracting method with a physical method for the 7-10 age group. Additionally, there is a study that used virtual reality in the prick test, but there is no method that has been proven to be superior to virtual reality. In this study, it will be investigated whether virtual reality and buzzy applications have a reducing effect on pain, fear and anxiety compared to the control group. Virtual reality and buzzy techniques will also be compared with each other. Since no such study has been found in the literature, it is thought to contribute to the field.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** The Child Anxiety Scale-Stability Scale (CAS-D); is shaped like a thermometer with a light bulb at the bottom and horizontal lines at intervals going upwards. In this scale for children aged four to ten, children are instructed to 'Imagine that all your anxious or nervous feelings are at the bulb or bottom of the thermometer'. A transparent metre is placed over the child's rating on which ½ point increments are marked, then the ½ point increment is rounded up to the nearest number. The score can range from 0-10. Above 5 points indicates high anxiety. The CVI is 0.89, the correlation coefficient is 0.99.
**Measure:** The Child Anxiety Scale-Stability Scale (CAS-D)
**Time Frame:** six month
**Description:** Child Fear Scale; This scale assesses pain-related fear in children. The Child Fear Scale (CFS) developed by McMurty et al. (2011) is a scale suitable for the 5-10 age group and consists of five drawn facial expressions ranging from neutral expression (0=no fear) to frightened face (4=severe fear). It can be easily assessed by researchers and health professionals who provide care/intervention to children (McMurtry et al., 2011). There is no gold standard self-report scale that assesses fear for children. Test-retest method was used in the validity study of the scale. The Turkish version of the scale was adapted by Özalp Gerçeker et al. (2018) and the Content Validity Index (CVI) was found to be 0.89 and the correlation coefficient was 0.96 (Özalp Gerçeker et al., 2018).
**Measure:** Child Fear Scale (CFS)
**Time Frame:** six month
**Description:** Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale (WB-FACES); It was developed by Wong and Baker in 1981 and revised in 1983. It is used to diagnose pain in children and adolescents aged 3-18 years. This scale, which can be used safely over the age of three, consists of six facial parts scored between 0-10. The face shape representing no pain is evaluated as 0 points and the face shape representing severe pain is evaluated as 10 points. Participants are asked to choose the best facial expression that best describes them. WB_FACES is a scale suitable for use in Turkey (Sahiner \& Bal, 2015) and will be evaluated by the parents and the researcher as well as the child's self-report in this study.
**Measure:** Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale (WB-FACES)

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this study is to perform a randomized trial to compare a new through-the-scope suturing system and conventional clips for closure of defect after ESD for 30-60 mm colonic polyps. More precisely, the hypothesis posits that the new through-the-scope suturing system can achieve higher complete closure rates in a shorter time in comparison to conventional clips.
**Detailed Description:** Large superficial colonic polyps are increasingly detected thanks to colorectal cancer screening programs worldwide. ESD is the technique which provides a high-quality resection of these large polyps.
Nevertheless, several adverse events affect ESD, especially in the colon. They could be life-threatening, call for or prolong the hospitalization, require blood transfusion, additional endoscopic or surgical procedures and increase costs.
Thus, preventing these adverse events is an important clinical and medico-economic objective. Endoscopic closure of post-ESD defects could reduce this risk. However, closing these large defects with conventional clips can be difficult, unsuccessful and prolong the duration of the whole procedure. A new trough-the-scope suturing system could successfully provide a complete endoscopic closure of post-ESD defects in the colon in a reasonable time.
Expected benefits are a decrease of morbidity and costs related to colonic ESD procedure

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This is a multicentric retrospective observational cohort study.
As primary objective, the study aims to evaluate the factors associated with nephrotic syndrome remission in patient with nephrotic syndrome, biopsy-prove minimal change disease or focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and an at-risk variant of the APOL1 gene.
As secondary objectives, this study aims:
* To evaluate the benefit of corticosteroids in obtaining the remission of nephrotic syndrome
* To identify the predictors of complete renal remission of nephrotic syndrome
* To evaluate the benefit of corticosteroids in reducing the incidence of end-stage renal disease
* To assess the adverse events of corticosteroids in patients treated with corticosteroids.
**Detailed Description:** The APOL1 gene synthesizes Apolipoprotein L1, a transport protein for hydrophobic molecules. When this gene presents bi-allelic "at risk" polymorphisms, it has been associated with an increased risk of end-stage renal disease. These polymorphisms can be frequent on a population scale, affecting up to 32% of patients in some West African countries. The pathogenic nature of these variants is now well established and has been highlighted on several occasions, notably in HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN - HIV Associated Nephropathy) or more recently in COVID-19-associated nephropathy (COVAN - COVID Associated Nephropathy), where almost all patients carry APOL1 risk alleles. Irrespective of the causative agent, nephropathy associated with APOL1 risk variants is regularly revealed by a nephrotic syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by generalized edema, high-range proteinuria and acute kidney injury. The course of the disease is particularly difficult to predict and highly variable, with some patients requiring rapid and definitive dialysis while others recover normal renal function without sequelae of proteinuria. In addition to this inter-individual variability, there is also variability in clinical practice with regard to the use of high-dose corticosteroids to induce disease remission. This is largely due to the rarity of the disease in the West and its possible under-diagnosis in developing countries. However, new drugs specifically targeting APOL1 are currently being developed, but their use is currently restricted to studies that exclude the most severe patients. In patients with at-risk APOL1 variants and nephrotic syndromes, it therefore appears critical to identify the determinants associated with remission of nephropathy, to quantify the efficacy of current therapies and to facilitate access to emerging drugs for the most severely ill subjects.
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the predictors (drug, clinical, histological or biological parameters) associated with nephrotic syndrome remission in patients with nephrotic syndrome, biopsy proven focal segmental glomerulosclerosis or minimal change disease and an at-risk variant of the APOL1 gene.
Population involved: eligible patients will be enrolled if they are more than 18 years old, have nephrotic syndrome (serum albumin \< 30 g/L and urine protein creatinine ratio \> 3 g/g) and biopsy-proven focal segmental glomerulosclerosis or minimal change disease.
Data analysis: the association of each explanatory variable with the variable "remission of nephrotic syndrome" will first be assessed using a semi-parametric univariable Cox model.Then, a multivariable Cox model will be performed with the explanatory variables associated with the variable "remission of nephrotic syndrome" with a p value \< 0.2 at the Wald test in univariable Cox regression analysis. Variables independently associated with remission of nephrotic syndrome will be those with a two-sided p value \< 0.05 after stepwise backward elimination in the multivariate model.
In order to assess the robustness of our results with the statistical approach, the investigators will also conduct association analyses between the predictor variables and the variable of interest using the machine learning analysis known as "Random Forrest analysis".
As secondary outcomes, the association between corticosteroids and nephrotic syndrome remission will be evaluated. The association between corticosteroids and end-stage renal disease will also be evaluated as a secondary outcome. The third secondary outcome evaluated will be the association between the predictor variables and complete remission of nephrotic syndrome. The last secondary outcome will be the assessment of corticosteroids safety evaluated following the common terminology criteria for adverse event version 5.0.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of myoelectric biofeedback therapy on upper limb function in elderly patients with cerebral infarction, and to analyze the adjustment of stroke condition and quality of life.The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. Does myoelectric biofeedback therapy promote the restoration of upper limb function in elderly patients with cerebral infarction?
2. What medical problems do participants have with myoelectric biofeedback therapy?
**Detailed Description:** We divided the participants into control group and observation group using simple random method.We will number the numbers according to the order of inclusion: then from any row in the random number table as a starting point, we will get a random number sequentially from its series of numbers, paired with the included case number, and list the random distribution table.The control group was represented by odd numbers of random tables and even numbers by observation groups.The probability of being included in the control group and the observation group were 50% respectively.The control group underwent comprehensive rehabilitation training, and the observation group conducted myoelectric biofeedback treatment on the basis of the control group.
Control group treatment plan
1. After stroke, medical staff should adjust the position of the patient every 2 hours, so that the patient's position is adjusted between the healthy side position and other positions, and provide the patient with soft pillow limit.
2. Passive training, in the initial physical disability of the patient after treatment by the rehabilitation therapist to provide passive training for the patient, specifically by the rehabilitation therapist on the affected side joint.
3. Anti-spasmodic activities, through the patient's activity training to avoid spastic symptoms, help the patient to change the posture to a healthy side position before the training begins.
4. At the beginning of the training, the rehabilitation therapist places both hands under the patient's shoulder blades, so that the patient's shoulders and shoulder blades are stretched forward to help the patient stay seated.In addition, the patient is provided with Bobas handshake training to maintain the trunk forward tilt position during the training process, maintaining the center of gravity below, helping the patient to stay seated for a long time for balance training.
5. Active training, the rehabilitation therapist instructs the patient to put the hand on the prepared cushion in advance, and then let the patient use both upper limbs to stretch the fixed elastic band to implement impedance training.After the above activities can be completed, you can try to implement refined operations, including threading and other activities that require high hand activities.After the patient's upper limb function has been restored, he or she can conduct autonomous life ability training under the guidance of a rehabilitation therapist, including basic activities such as getting up and washing.The pre-active training training time is maintained at about 0.5 h, and the maximum number of training times in one day is 3 times, and the intensity of training can be increased appropriately after the patient's physical condition has recovered.
Observation group treatment plan
The observation group carried out myoelectric biofeedback therapy on the basis of the control group:
After disinfection of the triangular, triceps and extensor muscles of the patient, the feedback electrode was attached to the area. The stimulation frequency was set at 50 Hz and the stimulation pulse width was set at 200 μs.During treatment, the patient is instructed to listen carefully to the device's password, drive the affected limb according to the specific password, and then perform tension and relaxation training.For each muscle group, the training time of each muscle group is about 0.5 h, 1 / d.In the later stage of treatment, the training intensity can be increased appropriately, so that the patient can carry out weight lifting during the feedback treatment, and listen to the password issued by the device to carry out muscle strength exercise.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Peri-medullary anesthesia is the preferred anesthetic technique for Caesarean surgery. Compared with general anesthesia, it reduces maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality, as well as postoperative pain. However, this technique exposes the patient to the adverse effects of peri-medullary morphine, particularly the risk of postoperative urinary retention. Urinary retention during the first 72 hours after Caesarean section affects around 33% of parturients.
This is a particularly debilitating event for parturients, exposing them to the risk of further urinary catheterization, increased theoretical risk of urinary tract infection, traumatic urethral injury, hindered accelerated rehabilitation and altered maternal satisfaction.
Several studies have demonstrated the benefits of adding magnesium sulfate to epidural anesthesia for Caesarean sections, notably by reducing postoperative pain.
Magnesium sulfate may also have a facilitating effect on postoperative micturition, thanks to its sympathicolytic effect.
This hypothesis is supported by a retrospective study carried out in our maternity hospital, which showed a 15% reduction in post-Caesarean urinary retention when women were given magnesium sulfate in addition to the drugs traditionally used for epidurals.
This little-known property needs to be clarified
**Detailed Description:** The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the addition of epidural magnesium sulfate in reducing the occurrence of acute post-Caesarean urine retention.
In fact, the incidence of acute urine retention after epidural anaesthesia for Caesarean section is around 33%. Two encouraging studies suggest that adding magnesium sulfate to epidurals could reduce the incidence of acute urine retention by 15%.
This study will be carried out on the obstetric population of the REIMS maternity hospital, starting in summer 2024. It is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. The number of subjects required is calculated at 290 patients, with a power of 80% and an alpha risk of 5%. The statistical hypothesis is that magnesium sulfate reduces the incidence of acute urine retention by 15% compared with placebo (isotonic saline).
Parturients will be informed of the study during a pre-anaesthetic consultation in the 6th month of pregnancy.
Some of these patients will be scheduled for delivery by caesarean section. The remaining patients will be scheduled for a vaginal delivery, which may end up being an emergency caesarean section (10-15% of patients).
After the Caesarean section, patients are taken to the post-procedure monitoring room, where they are monitored for 2 hours.
It is at this point that patients are examined to verify the inclusion and non-inclusion criteria of the protocol. If the inclusion and non-inclusion criteria are met, our teams will provide patients with explanatory documents on our protocol, as well as a consent form for their signature.
When the patient agrees to enter the protocol, the investigators randomize her to one of the following groups:
* Group A: injection of morphine 2 mg into the epidural catheter + magnesium sulfate 500 mg
* Group B: injection of morphine 2 mg into the epidural catheter + isotonic saline.
Group B is the control group. This is the protocol we use in daily practice for parturients who have undergone Caesarean section, in line with the French recommendations of anesthesia societies.
This reduces the parturient's postoperative pain for 20-24 hours. Group A will be the experimental group. Patients will be monitored in the post-natal care unit for 72 hours. The investigators will carry out the same monitoring and care as a parturient outside the protocol. Various data on diuresis, the quantity of urine in the bladder visualized by ultrasound, and the need for urinary catheterization will be recorded.
Statistical analyses will determine whether the incidence of acute urine retention differs between each group.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The investigators are studying the dangers that farmworkers face while working in the fields and at home. The investigators goals are:
1. Measure how much heat and chemicals farmworkers in Imperial County are exposed to.
The investigators will ask the participants to wear a special belt under their clothes during work to measure heat. The investigators will also put two small temperature monitors in the participant's home for a day. The investigators will collect a urine sample to check hydration, and also measure the participants height, weight, blood pressure, and some blood markers for diseases using a simple finger-prick test.
To measure chemicals, the investigators will give the participants a wristband to wear for a week and hang another in the participants home. The investigators will also collect dust from each participant's home with a vacuum. Then, the investigators will analyze everything at San Diego State University.
After collecting samples, a trained community health worker will ask the participants a few questions about their work, lifestyle, health symptoms, and any hazards they face. The investigators will meet the participants twice at their homes to distribute the tools which will later be collected. Once the tools are collected, the investigators will have the chance to follow up with the participants if they have any questions.
2. Provide help to lower heat and chemical exposure with the help of community health workers.
3. Measure heat and chemicals again using the same methods to see if the project made a difference.
4. Talk to participants about what they liked and how the investigators can make future projects better.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study will examine the effect of heat stress on factors that influence musculoskeletal injury risk in firefighters. Participants will attend 4 data collection sessions. 1: informed consent, screening, and familiarization. 2: pre-tests (strength, balance, and movement quality). 3: heat stress (rapid or gradual) followed by post-tests (strength, balance, and movement quality). 4: heat stress (rapid or gradual) followed by post-tests.
**Detailed Description:** This study utilizes a crossover design, with participants acting as their own controls and participating in both the control (gradual uncompensable heat) and experimental (rapid heat stress (RHS)) conditions. The independent variable is the type of heat stress (uncompensable or rapid). The dependent variables are: peak concentric muscle torque (hip abductors, hip adductors, knee flexors, knee extensors), dynamic balance (Y-Balance Test, Firefighter-Specific Functional-Balance Test (FFSFBT)), and frontal plane movement quality (Forward-Step-Down Test (FSDT)). These will be measured three times, once during pre-testing and twice during post-testing as described below.
The study will consist of four visits. Visit one will be the informed consent and familiarization to the outcome measures. Participants will be educated on filling out the 24-hour food/drink diary, and asked to standardize their diet as close as possible to this record the 24 hours before visits 2, 3, and 4. Injury history and demographic data will be collected at visit 1.
Visit two will be the pre-test data collection, which will occur at approximately 22°C. Participants will complete all outcome measures (torque, balance, movement quality measures). Body composition will also be measured in the BodPod at this time.
Before visits 2, 3, and 4, participants will follow the safety guidelines outlined below to ensure proper hydration:
* 48 hours before: no heat stress (will contact participant to determine if they have been called out to a live fire. Data collection will be postponed if so)
* 24 hours before: no alcohol consumption, no energy drink consumption (normal coffee/tea is allowed)
* 24 hours before: no physical activity (exercise or vigorous play)
* 24 hours before: drink 3.7L of total water to make sure to be well-hydrated
* 2 hours before: eat last meal
Visits three and four will consist of a steady-state treadmill protocol inside the environmental chamber (37-38°C, 50% humidity) followed by post-test measures. During either session three or four, the participant will don his/her firefighting gear (jacket, pants, hood, boots, gloves) and perform the treadmill test with the gear on. This is the RHS trial and will be denoted GEAR. In the other session, the participant will wear exercise clothes (shirt and shorts) plus a weighted backpack to replicate the weight of the gear. This is the gradual uncompensable heat stress trial and will be denoted NOGEAR. The order of the GEAR and NOGEAR sessions will be randomized and counterbalanced to prevent crossover effects.
Upon arrival for the pre-testing visit (session two), participants will be measured for height using a stadiometer and weight. Body composition will be measured once with the BodPod (Cosmed, USA). They will warm up for five minutes on an exercise bike or treadmill then proceed with taking the outcome measures.
Upon arrival for visits three and four, participants will be weighed again. A urine sample will be collected to assess hydration status. They will swallow the core temperature (Tc) capsule 40-45 minutes prior to the start of the session using a small amount of 20°C water, with no further water ingestion throughout the protocol to avoid artificially lowering Tc. Participants will be fit with the Equivital EQLife Monitor (Equivital, NY) system to record heartrate (HR) and Tc. They will then perform the treadmill protocol, and post-test measures will be completed immediately following the cessation of the treadmill test with removal of their gear. They will be weighed following exercise to determine changes in body weight due to sweating.
Sessions three and four will be separated by at least seven days to reduce the influence of heat acclimatization and fatigue. Continuous monitoring of Tc and HR will help ensure participant safety.
The treadmill exercise protocol begins with a graded approach to reach aerobic steady state. The treadmill protocol includes an initial five-minute stage at 3 miles per hour and a 0% grade, followed by increases in percent grade of 4% at minute 5 and 8% at minute 10 and continued throughout the test. Following the final planned incremental increase in treadmill incline, the incline will then be adjusted to ensure that the subject remains at steady-state for the duration of the protocol, defined by a respiratory exchange ratio between 0.9-0.99 using the lab's metabolic cart (Parvomedics, USA). HR, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), thermal comfort, and thermal sensation will be recorded at each 0.5°C interval. The treadmill test will be stopped when participants either reach a Tc of 39°C or a volitional maximum (participant is unable to continue exercise). The investigators will also halt the test if signs of excessive heat stress are present (unsteady gait, confusion, dizziness, slurred speech, etc.) Should the participant not meet either termination criteria, there will be a 50 minute time limit for the treadmill protocol for the GEAR condition and 2 hour limit for the NOGEAR condition. Both GEAR and NOGEAR sessions will begin with the same treadmill test.
Following the treadmill test, the participants will complete the post-test outcome measures. These consist of isokinetic torque of the hip abductors and adductors, isokinetic torque of the knee flexors and extensors, the Y-Balance Test, the FFSFBT, and FSDT. Participants will doff their gear immediately following cession of the treadmill test. For unilateral tests, the dominant leg will be recorded and used for these tests; this is the leg used to kick a ball. Outcome measure order will be standardized for each participant with testing order based on primary outcomes and difficulty of each test. The FSDT will be performed first, as this is the primary outcome and previous research showed that recovery after a maximal exertion stimulus happens quickly. The FFSFBT will be performed next, followed by the Y-Balance Test. Isokinetic testing will be last due to the fatiguing nature of this testing. Hip muscles will be tested first, followed by thigh muscles. Three minutes will be allotted for rest and instruction between each outcome measure. Five minutes of rest will be given between isokinetic tests to allow for machine set-up and instructions. One minute of rest will be given between each isokinetic speed, with three speeds tested for the hip (30°, 60°, and 120° per second) and knee (60°, 180°, and 300° per second) muscles.
Participants will be followed for 2 years, with 6-month follow-up calls to track injury status. Details on type of injury, location of injury, and time lost to work will be collected.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Dementia is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by acquired cognitive impairment as its core manifestation. The most common type of dementia is Alzheimer's Disease (AD), also known as "Senile Dementia," accounting for 60-80% of all dementia cases. Currently, there are approximately 10 million AD patients in China, with the number showing an increasing trend year by year, imposing a heavy economic and caregiving burden on families and society. Studies have shown that AD has a clinically silent period of 15 to 20 years (SCD\\MCI), where the risk of developing dementia is ten times higher than that of healthy elderly individuals. Nearly 50% of MCI patients progress to dementia within 5 years, and about 14.1% of SCD patients develop dementia within the same timeframe. Early detection, diagnosis, and intervention are currently the most effective strategies for preventing and treating AD. Therefore, this study aims to verify the intervention effect of integrated cognitive intervention in high-risk populations for senile dementia (SCD, MCI) based on the cognitive rehabilitation model through randomized controlled trials, and to analyze attrition rates, participation rates, etc., which have good research and application value.
**Detailed Description:** Based on the cognitive rehabilitation model, this study aims to develop a digital multimodal cognitive intervention program, and conduct feasibility studies and randomized controlled trials. The intervention includes health knowledge education, exercise intervention, art intervention, and cognitive training, etc. The feasibility, effectiveness, and safety of this intervention approach will be evaluated.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** EXTUBE is an international, multicentre, prospective cohort study evaluating the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of extubation-related complications and describing clinical practices related to extubation after general anesthesia or after critical illness in the operating room (OR), out of OR anesthesia location or intensive care unit (ICU).
**Detailed Description:** Globally, over 200 million people each year require extubation. While routinely performed, extubation is a skilled and potentially high-risk procedure that should be performed only when physiologic, pharmacologic, and contextual conditions are optimal.Complications at this stage of patient care can result in decreased oxygen delivery to the brain and body, sometimes leading to serious adverse events such as cardiac arrest, brain damage, or death. Indeed, one quarter of airway complications that result in death or brain death occur at the time of extubation.
Despite the frequency of extubation and the potential for life-threatening complications, there is a lack of systematic data on the rate and circumstances under which these severe complications occur. The limited data indicate 10-30% of extubations may lead to severe complications, depending on the population and outcome definition. However, the certainty of these estimates is severely limited because they are based on studies that are small, mostly single-center, based on clinician recall, only capture a small portion of extubation complications (e.g., malpractice claims), or do not reflect current clinical practice. In addition, most lack a denominator and exclude successful extubations, making estimates of actual complication rates and risk factors impossible.
There has been no large study of extubation techniques or adherence to guidelines, so procedural factors associated with complications must be elucidated. While adherence to clinical practice guidelines has not been formally evaluated, surveys show non-adherence to some best practices and considerable variation in practice, and data from audits and medicolegal claims show that lack of adherence to best practices is frequently at the root cause of severe adverse extubation outcomes, with half of the complications deemed preventable. Therefore, data on the frequency and nature of extubation complications, patient and procedural risk factors for complications, and guideline adherence rates are needed before these preventable events can be addressed.
EXTUBE (EXtubation related complications - an international observational study To Understand the impact and BEst practices in the operating room and intensive care unit) is an international, multicenter, prospective cohort study
The primary objective of this study is to determine the incidence of severe extubation-related complications within 60 minutes after extubation in adults who have undergone mechanical ventilation for general anesthesia or critical illness. The secondary objectives are to determine: 1) the incidence of mild extubation complications; 2) patient- and procedure-related risk factors for extubation complications; 3) the association between extubation complications and outcomes until hospital discharge; and 4) the rate of adherence to extubation clinical practice guidelines.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Purpose: This research was conducted to determine the effect of breathing exercise and affirmation method used in labor on women's birth self-efficacy and satisfaction.
Materials and Methods: The sample of the study, in which the randomized controlled experimental design type was applied, consisted of 128 nulliparous pregnant women. Data were collected with Pregnant Descriptive Information Form, Innate Period Evaluation Form, Visual Analog Scale, Affirmation Statement Evaluation Form, Short Form of the Childbirth of Self-Efficacy Inventory and Birth Satisfaction Scale. Pregnant women who are in the first stage of labor have been using diaphragmatic breathing exercise to one group, affirmation method to one group, both diaphragmatic exercise and affirmation method to one group since the active phase, while pregnant women in the control group have not been given any intervention, they have received routine care. Descriptive statistical methods, chi-square test, one-way analysis of variance, t-test for dependent and independent groups were used in the analysis of the data.
**Detailed Description:** This study was conducted in four groups. Groups; The group in which the affirmation method was used in labor (Affirmation Group - OG), the group in which breathing exercises were used in labor (Breathing Group - NG), the group in which both breathing exercises and affirmation methods were used in labor (Breathing and Affirmation Group - NOG), and the group in which no intervention was made other than routine hospital practices. It is divided into a non-existent group (Control Group - CG). The numbers given to the groups (1, 2, 3, 4) were determined by the lottery method. The name of each group was written on the papers and numbered in order of drawing. The numbers 3 were assigned to the Breathing group, 1 to the Affirmation group, 2 to the Breathing and Affirmation group, and 4 to the Control group. Considering data loss in the distribution of the study into groups, numbers from 1 to 200 were randomized for 4 groups using a computer-assisted randomization program (https://www.rstudio.com). In order to ensure homogeneity in the randomization of the intervention groups and the control group, five matching criteria were taken into consideration. These match criteria; It was determined as the mother's age, education level (secondary school and below, high school and above), employment status (working/not working), gestational age, and prenatal education. Homogeneity of the groups was tested in the evaluation of the study.
Pregnant women to be included in the study were assigned to groups according to the numbers in the columns according to the eligibility criteria. In order to avoid being influenced by each other, pregnant women were included in the study one by one, and after the birth of one pregnant woman was completed, the other pregnant woman was included in the study.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a digital education program designed for dental professionals can lead to radiographic examinations of better quality. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does the digital education program lead to more radiographic examinations of good quality? Does the digital education program lead to better theoretical and practical understanding regarding image quality among dental professionals?
Researchers will compare answers from a theoretical test and image quality in radiographic examinations between participants with respectively without access to the digital education program.
Participants will:
* have access to the digital education program for three months
* after three months all study participants are invited to answer a theoretical test
**Detailed Description:** The present study aims to evaluate a digital education programs effect on image quality in intraoral radiographic examinations performed by dental professionals. The present study is part of an on-going cross sectional descriptive project where dental professionals employed in general dental care in the county of Västerbotten, Sweden constitute the study population. The purpose of the project is to gain a broader understanding of a digital education programs impact on the theoretical and practical competencies among dental professionals regarding intraoral dental radiographic examinations.
Approximately 80 dental professionals have provided written informed consent regarding study participation. In the present study, approximately 40 participants will for three months be offered the intervention and join a digital education program. Approximately 40 participants will during the same period not be offered the intervention and constitute the control group. Effects on practical competencies between groups will be evaluated when analyzing image quality of intraoral radiographic examinations. Effects on theoretical competencies between groups will be analyzed with a theoretical test.
Cluster randomization of dental clinics will be made for study included participants to either intervention group or control group. Recruitment of study participants will end in August 2024.
The investigators hypothesize that the digital education program will improve the theoretical competence and radiographic image quality in intraoral radiographic examinations.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This clinical trial tests the feasibility of self-administered relaxing acupressure on fatigue in adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors. Acupressure, a type of complementary or alternative medicine, is the application of pressure or localized massage to specific sites on the body to control symptoms. Relaxing acupressure has been shown to improve cancer-related fatigue (CRF) in adults, however, less is known about the impact of relaxing acupressure on CRF in AYA cancer survivors."
**Detailed Description:** PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. Determine the feasibility of implementing a randomized controlled trial of a six-week, self-administered relaxing acupressure intervention in AYA cancer survivors with clinically relevant CRF.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
I. Explore participants' perspectives of acceptability and satisfaction with the six-week acupressure interventions using semi-structured interviews.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
I. Determine the preliminary efficacy of a six-week, virtual, self-administered relaxing acupressure intervention on clinically significant changes in CRF in post-treatment AYA cancer survivors.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive access to an acupressure mobile application and an AcuWand on study and self-administer relaxing acupressure to 9 acupoints over 27 minutes once daily (QD) for 6 weeks.
ARM II: Patients receive access to an acupressure mobile application and an AcuWand and self-administer sham acupressure to non-acupressure point locations over 27 minutes QD for 6 weeks.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The aim of the present study is to analyze the effects of a psychomotor intervention program mediated by belly dance in adult women. This Quasi-experimental study is a controlled trial with one arm. Participants will be allocated to one group which will be i) control and ii) experimental. That is at first i) will attend a control period without intervention (6 weeks) and at second ii) will attend an intervention period participating on the intervention program mediated by belly dance (12 weeks). Participants will be accessed at a baseline, at post control and at post intervention.
**Detailed Description:** Sedentary lifestyles has been identified as one of the main causes for the development of pathologies as are cardiovascular diseases and of mental health problems such as anxiety and depression. Associated with this, psychomotor factors can also be negatively affected as well as the perception of well-being. Women's daily life associated with tasks accumulation is referred to as a barrier to engaging in physical have progressively made it more difficult for them to perform formal physical activity (Barranco-Ruiz, 2020). Dance can help in this scenario because it is a pleasurable activity that favors social and intrapersonal relationships, working simultaneously on factors such as balance, motor coordination, agility, body awareness, and rhythm, having a positive impact on quality of life and well-being. In this way, dance, through its various components associated with movement, can assume a character of health promotion, also making possible a space of attention for women (Hernandes et al, 2018). Studies have already been carried out focusing on the effects of belly dancing on body image, quality of life and self-esteem in women with cancer, experienced and professional experienced and professional belly dancers/practitioners, elderly women with depression, pregnant women and depression, pregnant women and those with chronic pain (Boing, 2018; Toberna, 2020; Castrillon, 2017). No studies were found that looked at psychomotor factors (balance, agility and body body awareness), or indicators of well-being focused on body image, movement image and and mood states.
The proposed study has a quasi-experimental design with two pre-tests and one post- test, with only one group, the experimental group being its own control. In this way, we will apply Pre-test 1 and after six weeks without intervention, we will apply Pre-test 2 in order to obtain the results referring to the control group. After that, we will start the intervention itself, which will last twelve weeks and will culminate with the Post test 1.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Analyses of primary and secondary endpoints: The error rate During data collection, a change was made to the CIP regarding complete wound closure (wound heal). Whether a wound was healed was determined by the opinion of the investigator and not by the size of the wound as measured by Imito® application. The error rate of the Imito® measuring application in determining the size of the wound was 10 %, i.e. based on that and clinical experience the threshold of 0.1 cm2 was determined. Wounds smaller than or equal to 0.1 cm2 were considered as complete closure. The investigator confirmed the wound closure in an accompanying comment in the eCRF.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Alzheimer's Disease, AD is a type of neurofibrillary tangles formed by the deposition of beta amyloid proteins within the nervous system cells and excessive phosphorylation of extracellular Tau proteins, NFTs are the main pathological features of central nervous system degeneration, also known as senile dementia. In addition, synaptic plasticity damage and neuroinflammation also play important roles in the progression of AD. Neurosynapses are the sites where neurons interact with each other in terms of function, and are also crucial for neuronal information transmission and communication. Synapses are the fundamental units in the brain, and synaptic activity can stimulate the maturation of mushroom like dendritic spines and form new synapses, enabling synaptic strength to adapt to changes in the internal and external environment, thereby playing an important role in learning and memory. Previous studies have shown that synaptic activity interruption and synaptic loss can already be detected in the AD brain, especially in the early stages. Multiple studies have shown a higher correlation between synaptic disorders characterized by synaptic loss and decreased synaptic activity and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease compared to age-related plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Therefore, understanding the potential mechanisms of synaptic disorders will contribute to the development of early treatment strategies for AD. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a type of small non coding RNA with a length of approximately 22 nucleotides. Their main function is to silence target genes at the post transcriptional level and inhibit the translation process of their proteins. MiRNAs are involved in many physiological processes and pathological pathways, including development, tumorigenesis, and heart disease. Recently, people have also studied the abnormal regulatory role of miRNAs in AD synaptic disorders. Some miRNAs enriched in the brain, such as miR-124, MiR-132 is abnormally expressed in the AD brain, mediating synaptic plasticity damage. However, most of the miRNAs mentioned above are not directly related to synaptic activity, and their regulation of AD synaptic damage is likely to be a broad-spectrum effect. At present, there are 12 miRNAs closely related to synaptic plasticity that have been identified. By detecting changes in miRNAs closely related to synaptic plasticity in peripheral blood of AD patients and healthy volunteers, and exploring their relationship with the severity of AD lesions, it may provide new directions for early diagnosis of AD. The purpose of this study is to: (1) detect the expression levels of miRNAs closely related to synaptic plasticity in the peripheral blood of healthy volunteers and AD patients, and identify the miRNAs with the greatest differences; (2) Analyze the relationship between the expression levels of the aforementioned miRNAs in the peripheral blood of AD patients and the severity of the disease; (3) Analyze the relationship between the expression levels of the aforementioned miRNAs in the peripheral blood of AD patients and the commonly used neuropsychiatric scale scores. We plan to clarify the changes in peripheral blood miRNAs and their relationship with the severity of AD through case-control studies, in order to provide new directions for early diagnosis of AD.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** In Spain, depression, anxiety, and stress are highly prevalent in the general population as well as in college students. In college students, Ramón Arbués et al. found a moderate prevalence of depression (18.4%), anxiety (23.6%) and stress (34.5%). It is essential to take responsibility for promoting health education, disease prevention, protection and care for our young people.
Academic performance can be altered due to the stressful nature of exam situations, which can lead to increased anxiety and decrease expected performance, mainly due to effects such as decreased attention span, concentration and retention of information.
Modulation of vagal tone is a therapeutical strategy to heightened parasympathetic activity and withdrawal sympathetic activity. Auricular transcutaneous VNS (ATVNS) by which parasympathetic nerve system is modulated by means of the stimulation of the auricular branch of the vagus nerve that provides somatosensory innervation to the external ear.
It has been shown that there are different effective interventions to reduce the symptoms of stress, depression, anxiety and insomnia in university students, but they are based on psychological interventions or face-to-face and cognitive-behavioral therapeutic approach, so this study proposal incorporates noninvasive atrial stimulation as an alternative to traditional treatments, which apart from being cost-effective, is easy to apply, well tolerated and presumably can have beneficial effects in the short term.
In the present pilot study, we propose to investigate the degree of depression, anxiety and stress on crucial dates of final exams of 1st year students of the Double Degree Physiotherapy - Physical Activity and Sport Sciences of the Health Department of the TecnoCampus.
We will also evaluate the feasibility of a study to assess the efficacy of a non-pharmacological intervention, through a neuroreflex stimulation of vagal tone, with a non-invasive atrial stimulation protocol.

**Arm Group Labels:**
- True non-invasive auricular stimulation (TniAS)
**Description:** Single session TniAS stimulation will be achieved by applying four stimulation patches. These patches consist of stainless steel spheres with a diameter of 1.2 mm, covered with adhesive circular paper measuring 8 mm in diameter.
Point 1. Located in the Triangular Fossa, upper and central level at the vertex of the Fossa, at junction between the upper root and the lower root of the Antihelix.
Point 2. Located in the inner part of the Cymba (upper) conchae, in the angle formed by the lower root of the antihelix and the ascending branch of the Helix.
Point 3. Located in the middle depression of the Cavum (lower) conchae.
Poinit 4. It is located at the inner superior quadrant of Lobe, below the external curve of the Intertragus notch, in a depression 3-4 mm from the insertion of the lobe to the face.
**Name:** Non-invasive auricular stimulation
**Type:** OTHER
#### Intervention 2
**Arm Group Labels:**
- Sham auricular stimulation (SAS)
**Description:** Sham intervention will be conducted following the exact same procedure as the TniAS group, with the only difference being the use of sham stimulation patches. These sham patches will consist of the same patches utilized in the TniAS group, except for the absence of the stainless steel spheres. During the application of these sham patches, the investigator will adhere to the identical process as in the TniAS group, with the exception that no palpation will be performed to locate the exact points, and only minimal pressure required for patch adherence will be applied to minimize any substantial stimulation. Participants in the SAS group will also be explicitly instructed not to stimulate the points until the removal of the patches.
The removal of the sham stimulation patches will follow the precise protocol applied in the TniAS group, ensuring consistency in the study procedures across both groups.
**Name:** Sham auricular stimulation (SAS)

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The purpose of this clinical study is to determine whether EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is effective in alleviating nausea and vomiting in pregnant women with hyperemesis. Additionally, the study aims to gather information on the safety of EFT application. The primary questions it seeks to answer are:
Does EFT reduce nausea and vomiting in pregnant women with hyperemesis? Is EFT applicable for use in pregnant women with hyperemesis? Researchers will compare the effectiveness of EFT to traditional nursing education on non-pharmacological interventions for preventing nausea and vomiting in pregnant women with hyperemesis.
Participants:
Pre-EFT application survey scale questions will be asked to the pregnant women with hyperemesis.
EFT will be applied once by the researcher to the pregnant women with hyperemesis.
For control, the same survey scale questions will be asked to the same pregnant women two days after the EFT application for post-test purposes.
For control, the same survey scale questions will be asked to the same pregnant women seven days after the EFT application for post-test purposes.
The same procedures will be applied in the same manner to the control group that will receive education.
**Detailed Description:** Type of Research: It is planned to be randomized, controlled and experimental. Place and Characteristics of the Research: The research will be carried out in the women health and diseases service and Gynecology polyclinics of Bezmialem Vakif University Faculty of Medicine Central Hospital.
Population and Sample of the Research:The sample size was determined as a minimum of 74 people in total using the G Power 3.1 method. The effect size was determined using the t test values in the reference study in which the scale was used with a similar patient group.
Criteria for Inclusion in the Study:Pregnant women who are between 6 and 14 weeks of gestation, aged between 20 and 40 years old, and have complaints of nausea and vomiting are eligible for the study. These participants should report their discomfort as 5 or above on the VAS scale. Additionally, they must not have been diagnosed with a high-risk pregnancy or any psychological disorders. Lastly, they must voluntarily agree to participate in the study.
Criteria for Exclusion from the Study: Exclusion criteria are the presence of coordination and language problems in the pregnant woman and her desire to leave the study at any time or not to participate.
Survey Scales Descriptive Information Form: The pregnancy information form, prepared in line with the literature review conducted by the researchers, includes socio-demographic (age of the pregnant woman, education and employment status, income level, family type and place of residence), obstetric (current gestational week and pregnancy history), psychosocial information. It consists of questions about social and medical history (pregnancy desire), whether there is a chronic disease) and VAS Scale. VAS is a measurement tool used to measure both pain intensity and pain relief, which is simple, effective and repeatable and requires minimal tools.
2. Pregnancy-Specific Nausea and Vomiting Severity Scale (PUQE-24): its form specific to the pregnancy period that evaluates nausea and vomiting for the last 12 hours. It was later reported that it would be more appropriate to evaluate the last 24 hours for clinical use, as the last 12 hours sometimes include the sleep period in terms of nausea and vomiting in pregnant women. Thereupon, the Pregnancy-Unique Quantification of Emesis (PUQE-24) Scale was developed and evaluate the severity of pregnancy-specific nausea and vomiting in the last 24 hours. Its Turkish validity and reliability were conducted.
Pregnancy-Specific Nausea and Vomiting Severity Scale (PUQE-24) consists of 3 questions:duration of nausea or stomach discomfort, number of vomiting episodes, and number of retching episodes. Answers to the questions are scored between 1 and 5 points. The total score of the scale is obtained by the sum of the scores of the answers given to the questions. The lowest possible score that can be obtained from the scale is 3 and the highest score is 15. If the total score obtained as a result of the PUQE-24 scoring system is 3-6, it is considered mild, 7-12 is considered moderate, and 13-15 is considered severe nausea and vomiting. The scale has no subdimensions. Cronbacha alpha value of the Turkish version of the scale is 0.75.
3.World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale: The WHOQOL-100 scale was developed with the participation of 15 centers from many countries. This scale allows cross-cultural comparisons. WHOQOL-100 was later abbreviated as WHOQOLBREF. WHOQOL-BREF consists of four sub-dimensions: physical domain, spiritual domain, social domain and environmental domain. The validity and reliability of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale 31 Short Form-Turkish Version (WHOQOL-BREF-TR) in Turkey was determined. WHOQOL-BREF-TR used in this study consists of 27 questions. For each question, there are options that can be scored between 1 and 5. The scale does not have a total score. The score range that can be obtained from each other sub-dimension is obtained by multiplying the arithmetic mean of that sub-dimension by 4. The score range that can be received for each sub-dimension is between 4-20. Increasing scores from the subscales indicate that the quality of life also increases

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this experiment is to examine responses to alcohol warning messages about 10 different topics among US adult alcohol consumers. The main questions this experiment aims to answer are:
Which warning topics make alcohol consumers in the US want to drink less alcohol? Which warning topics remind alcohol consumers in the US of alcohol's harms? Which warning topics help alcohol consumers in the US learn something new? There will be a total of 20 alcohol messages, 2 messages for each of the 10 topics. For each topic, participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of the 2 messages so that they view a total of 10 alcohol messages. All 10 messages will be shown in random order. Participants will rate each message on how much it makes them want to drink less alcohol, reminds them that drinking can be harmful, and teaches them something new.
**Detailed Description:** This study aims to determine which topics in alcohol warning labels are most effective at making US adults who consume alcohol want to drink less alcohol, which topics best remind consumers of alcohol's harms, and which topics are most likely to teach consumers something new. The survey research company NORC at the University of Chicago will recruit a sample of 1,000 US adults ages 21+ who consumed alcohol at least one time per week during the past 4 weeks.
Participants will complete a within-subjects online randomized experiment in which they view and rate messages shown on alcohol containers. Participants will rate each message on perceived message effectiveness (primary outcome), reminding of alcohol's harms (secondary outcome), and learning something new (secondary outcome). These tasks will be repeated for 10 messages, each with a different topic. There will be 9 warning topics (i.e., topics about alcohol's harms) and 1 control topic (i.e., neutral topic not about alcohol's harms). In this within-subjects experiment, the survey will present the topics in random order and participants will view 1 of 2 messages for each topic.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Orthognathic surgery is a surgical procedure performed to correct dentofacial deformities. In recent years, with the use of virtual surgical planning, cutting guides, and patient-specific osteosynthesis plates, highly predictable results can be achieved. While there are many positive reports regarding the use of patient-specific plates in maxillary positioning in orthognathic surgery, there is a lack of sufficient studies comparing the results obtained in mandibular positioning. Additionally, numerous designs of proximal segment positioning devices have been published, but comparative studies on their effectiveness have not been conducted. Therefore, a study comparing these approaches has been planned.
**Detailed Description:** Orthognathic surgery is a frequently used treatment method for correcting dentofacial deformities. Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO), developed by Trauner and Obwegeser, is still used today with many design modifications. There is a potential for incorrect positioning of the proximal segment during fixation. Regarding mandibular setback surgery, many authors have reported a tendency for medial and posterior rotation of the proximal segment during the postoperative period. Proximal segment displacement may result from the condyle not seating properly in the fossa or from early contacts between the proximal and distal segments. These early contacts cause rotation of the proximal segment while the mandible is fixed. If the displacement exceeds the adaptive capacity of the condyle, a high rate of condylar resorption or postoperative relapse may occur. Various condylar positioning devices have been developed to overcome this issue.
The introduction of virtual surgical planning (VSP) has helped to overcome some of the errors and difficulties in model surgery and conventional surgical planning. Computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) splints have been shown to be accurate in transferring the surgical plan to real life, but some errors may still occur. Patient-specific 3D-printed osteosynthesis plates have been developed to overcome these errors. Many studies have reported high accuracy of these plates in the maxilla. However, some other studies have reported errors of 5-6 mm. Similar accuracy rates have been reported for the mandible, but there are fewer studies in this area.
VSP not only allows the surgeon to visualize 3D movements but also shows the osteotomy design, screw placement locations, fixation design, and early bone contacts. The amount of trimming of the distal segment is determined by examining whether any openings or narrowings occur after minor movements are made to the proximal segment based on the rotation of the distal segment or the complex "pitch" and "roll" movements of the occlusal plane. After all these movements are given with virtual planning, personalized cutting guides, positioning guides, and patient-specific plates are needed to transfer this plan to real life.
Recent developments in VSP have focused on accurately transferring preoperative planning to surgery. The most significant development in this regard is patient-specific plates and cutting guides. This technology enables surgeons and engineers to produce patient-specific cutting guides to determine the incision lines. These guides also determine the thickness of the bone in the areas where plate screws will be placed and ensure avoidance of tooth roots. Patient-specific plates are designed and manufactured to fit into pre-prepared holes and hold the osteotomized segments together in the desired position. Despite being a new technology, several studies have shown that VSP and patient-specific plates have better final surgical accuracies compared to VSP and splints.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to validate a digital health tool, Dana app, that enhances well-being and supports mental health monitoring for women during the perinatal period. The primary purpose is to improve maternal well-being, early detection of mental health issues, and aid in the diagnosis and monitoring by healthcare professionals in women transitioning into motherhood. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does the app improve overall maternal well-being during the perinatal period?
* Can the app increase the early detection rates of perinatal mental health disorders?
* Can the app be an effective tool to support healthcare professionals to diagnose perinatal mental health problems?
* How effective is the app in improving obstetric outcomes and the psychological and cognitive development of infants?
Researchers will compare the group using the app with a control group not using the digital tool to see if Dana provides significant improvements in maternal and infant health outcomes.
Participants will:
* Use the mobile application from 12-14 weeks of gestation until 24 months postpartum.
* Undergo regular assessments to monitor their emotional state, lifestyle, clinical, and obstetric data.
* Participate in evaluations for their infants' psychological and cognitive development at various stages from birth to two years old.
This trial is conducted at multiple centers, including Hospital Vall d'Hebron, the Sexual and Reproductive Health Care Services (ASSIR) in Tarragona and ASSIR Litoral (Barcelona), Hospital del Mar, following CONSORT standards. The study aligns with the Health and Culture priorities of the Spanish Government's Scientific, Technical, and Innovation Research Plan 2021-2023.
**Detailed Description:** BACKGROUND:
Mental disorders are becoming one of the major health problems in today's society, exacerbated in women who are and will become mothers. Global studies indicate that 80% of women who are going to become mothers experience mood disorders such as stress, fear, loneliness, or guilt during the perinatal period. In 1 out of every 5 cases, these mental disorders worsen and lead to severe mental health issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder, psychosis, suicidal ideation, or postpartum depression. However, 75% of women with perinatal mental disorders are underdiagnosed and do not receive adequate treatment, either due to a lack of detection or support within healthcare systems. This has a consequent impact on the health and well-being of the mother, her family, the child, and ultimately, society. In this context, the company A Thousand Colibris S.L (ATC) has developed digital health software to improve well-being during this period, as well as to detect, assist in the diagnosis, and monitor mental health disorders in mothers from pregnancy up to two years after childbirth.
Consequences of Perinatal Mental Health Disorders:
The consequences of perinatal mental health problems extend beyond the mother, affecting the child, the family, and society as a whole.
1. Maternal health disorders: Perinatal mental health disorders have been identified in women of all cultures, ages, social levels, and races. Although the term postpartum depression is often used to describe disorders that develop after childbirth, a range of disorders can appear during pregnancy and the postpartum period, including anxiety, depression, stress disorders, panic, or postpartum psychosis. If left untreated, these illnesses can have a devastating impact on women and their families, being one of the leading causes of maternal death during pregnancy and the two years following childbirth.
2. Impact on the future health of the child: Without appropriate intervention, these disorders can persist and have negative consequences for both the mother and the baby. The impact of the mother's health on the future health of the baby, on mother-newborn interactions, breastfeeding difficulties, and the mother-child bond is well documented. The failure to detect certain aspects of maternal health can manifest in complications during childbirth or later in the child's development.
3. Impact on family well-being: The mother's mood and symptoms of anxiety and other disorders also have a direct impact on the partner, who may not understand what is happening, feel overwhelmed, and not know how to help.
Digital psychological interventions:
Given the growing ubiquity of the Internet and the widespread use of smartphones, mindfulness-based cognitive-behavioral interventions can also be offered digitally. In this regard, researchers have been successfully adapting decades-old techniques commonly used in cognitive-behavioral therapies to the context of smartphone applications, which have demonstrated efficacy in reducing symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, insomnia, and even suicidal thoughts. However, the potential of smartphone applications in promoting well-being, and preventing and treating mental health problems in pregnant women, has yet to be fully exploited. Despite the limited number of studies and controlled trials involving health apps for pregnant women, online app stores are flooded with pregnancy apps that have not been tested using rigorous scientific methods. This has sparked an increasing debate among researchers and policymakers regarding the evaluation of quality and certification of health apps that do not meet the needs of patients and doctors, particularly concerning safety and efficacy. Health applications should be evaluated with the same rigor as other types of interventions, such as pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy.
HYPOTHESES:
Hypothesis 1: Dana is a digital tool that improves the well-being of women transitioning into motherhood and increases the early detection of mental health disorders.
Hypothesis 2 (Class IIa Certification): The tool provides monitoring of maternal health and assists in diagnosis for healthcare professionals.
OBJECTIVES:
General:
To validate a digital tool as a solution to (a) improve maternal well-being, mental and physical health during the perinatal period, (b) increase early detection of maternal mental health disorders, and (c) assist in the diagnosis and monitoring of perinatal mental health problems.
Specific:
* Validate the effectiveness of the digital tool in improving well-being at the end of pregnancy (34 weeks gestation), initial postpartum (6 weeks postpartum), and long-term (6, 12, and 24 months postpartum).
* Verify the effectiveness of the digital tool in preventing symptoms of anxiety and depression during the perinatal period (pregnancy and postpartum up to 24 months postpartum).
* In women with symptoms detected in the baseline assessment, analyze the effectiveness of the tool in preventing symptom escalation.
* In women with stabilized mental pathology, analyze the effectiveness of the tool in preventing symptom escalation.
* Verify the effectiveness of the digital tool in improving secondary outcomes related to childbirth: childbirth experience and postpartum-related post-traumatic stress.
* Verify the effectiveness of the digital tool in improving obstetric and neonatal health secondary outcomes.
* Analyze the use of healthcare services and the cost of perinatal mental health.
* Verify the effectiveness of the intervention developed to increase prenatal bonding and postpartum attachment.
* Verify the effectiveness of the intervention developed to improve postpartum secondary outcomes: satisfaction with the maternal role, self-efficacy, stress with the maternal role, and proportion of breastfeeding.
* Analyze the secondary relationship between childbirth experience, post-traumatic stress, and postpartum depression.
* Analyze the data collected by the digital tool and wearables to identify patterns and correlations that may be useful for the prediction and early detection of disorders in mothers and babies.
* Analyze infant neurodevelopment and psychopathology during the first two years of life.
METHODOLOGY:
1. Design: A randomized clinical trial, blinded to the investigator, with two parallel groups (1 experimental group using the digital tool and 1 control group).
The protocol has been designed following the CONsolidated Standards Of Reporting Trials (CONSORT: http://www.consortstatement.org) and the Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials (SPIRIT).
2. Participants: The study will be conducted at Vall d'Hebrón Hospital, the Sexual and Reproductive Health Care Services (ASSIR) in Tarragona, ASSIR del Litoral (Barcelona), and Hospital del Mar.
Participants will be pregnant women between 12-14 weeks of gestation who are following their pregnancy at these centers, and they and their babies will be followed up until 24 months postpartum.
3. Sample Size: To estimate the necessary sample size to detect significant differences between groups, an alpha risk error of 0.05 and a beta risk error of 0.2 for one-tailed tests have been accepted, considering a dropout rate of 40%. According to data from Viskovich et al. (2020) and Rash et al. (2011) related to the Satisfaction With Life Scale, 16 subjects per group are needed to determine minimum differences of 1.86 points, assuming a standard deviation of 2.07 points. According to data from Tovote et al. (2014) related to the World Health Organization-5 Well-Being Index, 11 subjects per group are needed to determine minimum differences of 20.6 points, assuming a standard deviation of 19.0 points. According to data from Ahlqvist-Björkroth et al. (2019) related to the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, 26 subjects per group are needed to determine minimum differences of 2.13 points, assuming a standard deviation of 2.46 points. Finally, according to data from Moix et al. (2021) related to the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, 11 subjects per group are needed to determine minimum differences of 5.54 points, assuming a standard deviation of 4.5 points. Thus, 64 subjects per arm are needed, so a total sample of 300 pregnant women per center should be recruited.
4. Procedures:
4.1. Recruitment: Participants will be recruited through midwives from the Primary Care Centers and Sexual and Reproductive Health Care Services (ASSIR) of Tarragona, and ASSIR of Barcelona Litoral - Hospital del Mar. Recruitment will be through obstetricians and midwives from the same center. Women who visit before 15 weeks of gestation and meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be eligible to participate in the study. The healthcare professional conducting the visit will be responsible for validating the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
4.2. Randomization: Balanced randomization by center will be carried out through the digital tool itself, so the researchers will be blind to the intervention. Participants will need to download the mobile application, where during the registration process and center selection, they will be randomized into the control or intervention group. Women in the intervention group will be offered access to the full digital tool, while those in the control group will have an app with no content.
4.3. Blinding: Researchers analyzing the primary data and conducting infant evaluations will not know which group the women have been assigned to. Midwives and obstetricians who conduct recruitment will also be unaware, unless the participant discloses it after being randomized. Neither the researchers nor the midwives will have access to group assignments. Researchers conducting primary data analysis or neonatal evaluations will not know the participants' group assignments until the end of the study. Due to the nature of the intervention, participants cannot be blinded to their group assignment.
4.4. Pseudonymization: Data pseudonymization and protection will be ensured using the REDCap system. Each participating health center and hospital (as independent data controllers) will have access only to their own center's data, not to data from other centers. Data from the entire study recorded in REDCap and app data will be accessible only by the co-sponsors and co-controllers of the data mentioned in the protocol.

**Description:** Maternal heart rate variability (HRV)
Heart rate:
Minimum Value: Varies depending on the individual's baseline, but generally, a healthy resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute (bpm).
Maximum Value: This can vary widely based on activity and stress levels, but for pregnant women, a heart rate consistently above 100 bpm at rest might be concerning
Maternal heart rate variability (HRV) refers to the variation in time intervals between heartbeats, which is a marker of autonomic nervous system function.
Minimum Value: HRV does not have a fixed minimum value, but lower HRV generally indicates reduced autonomic flexibility and poor cardiovascular health.
Maximum Value: Similarly, there is no fixed maximum value, but higher HRV is generally associated with better cardiovascular fitness and autonomic regulation.
**Measure:** Biomarkers 1 (stress)
**Time Frame:** From 12 weeks of pregnancy until 2 years postpartum
**Description:** Sleeping patterns (measured with wearable):
Key Metrics Monitored by Wearable:
Sleeping patterns refer to the habitual sleep behaviors of an individual. Bed time start (date and time), bed time end (date and time) and awake time (in minutes) will be combined to report total sleep (in minutes).
The overall of this metrics will give a score for sleeping patterns. Higher levels mean higher levels of resting.
**Measure:** Biomarkers 2 (sleep)
**Time Frame:** From 12 weeks of pregnancy until 2 years postpartum
**Description:** Level of physical activity (measured with wearable):
The heart rate monitor of the wearable measures the wearer's heart rate to gauge intensity of physical activity.
The amount of time (in minutes) will give us the time a day spent in physical activities of moderate or higher intensity (HR\>100bpm).
Higher levels mean higher levels of physical activity.

**Brief Summary:** This study is being done to see if the study drug, motixafortide, is safe in participants with sickle cell disease (SCD). Investigators also want to see if the drug will help the body increase the number of stem cells that can be collected for possible future transplant use.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE
* To characterize the safety and tolerability of motixafortide in participants with SCD as determined by the incidence of adverse events (AEs).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
* To characterize the efficacy of a single dose (Part A) or two doses (Part B) of motixafortide for hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) mobilization and apheresis collection in participants with SCD as determined by the yield of CD34+ cells (CD34+ cells/kg).
* To measure the mobilization effects of single-day (Part A) or daily dosing (Part B) dosing with motixafortide in the peripheral blood in participants with SCD as determined by peak peripheral blood CD34+ counts
* To recommend a phase 2 dosing strategy based on safety, efficacy, and mobilization effects
**Detailed Description:** This study is divided into 2 parts. Participants will be assigned to a part based on when they enroll. Early in the study, participants will be assigned to part A. Later in the study, participants will be assigned to part B. In both parts, participants will receive the study drug, motixafortide, by an injection under the skin. About 8 hours after the injection, stem cells will be collected. Participants will follow-up within 7-10 days after the study drug and stem cell collection. Study staff will contact participants about 30 days after the last drug dose administration.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Levetiracetam is the commonly preferred anti-seizure medicine in patients with brain tumors. This drug has reduced the risk of seizure events occurring but is associated with a risk of side effects such as increased headache, drowsiness, loss of muscle coordination, and psychological challenges in patients. In patients undergoing appropriate treatment for brain tumors and controlled of seizures in the initial few months of levetiracetam, the chance of further seizures is relatively low. The optimal duration to give levetiracetam is not well defined for these patients, and currently as standard treatment levetiracetam is continued for 2-3 years. This study aims to answer this question by comparing patients on a short course of levetiracetam (experimental arm) versus a longer course of levetiracetam (standard arm), with the anticipation that a shorter duration of treatment will not lead to increased seizure episodes.
**Detailed Description:** Patients with prior history of seizure from primary brain tumor in the supratentorial location with controlled seizure on levetiracetam monotherapy for at least six months will be considered for the study. Patients more than 18 years of age with KPS ≥ 50 will be eligible. Patients will be randomized in one of the two arms (standard arm or experimental arm) in a 1:1 ratio and stratified based on seizure type, location, histology, tumor grade, and adjuvant therapy. Randomization will be done by the statistician via computerized software using a permuted block design. In the standard arm, patients will continue on the same dose and schedule of levetiracetam (typically prescribed in the range of 1000-3000 mg/ day in 2-3 divided doses) for a duration of 2 years. In the experimental arm, levetiracetam will be tapered by 250- 500 mg every week and stopped. Follow-ups will be done every 3-6 months as per standard practice for the given tumor histology. Neuroimaging will be done 6-12 monthly as per routine clinical practice. The quality-of-life assessment will be done every six months. The primary endpoint is 2-year seizure free survival calculated from the time of randomization.
Patients will continue to receive standard treatment, including adjuvant therapy as standard practice. In case in either arm, the patient develops a seizure episode after stopping levetiracetam will be restarted on levetiracetam monotherapy. If a patient develops a seizure episode while on levetiracetam monotherapy, further add-on antiepileptics will be considered as per standard practice by the responsible physician. Any complications arising from previous treatments (e.g., radio necrosis) or recurrent disease during the study period will be managed according to standard institutional practice without any influence of the study.
The study will be conducted at Tata Memorial Centre with a total sample size of 604 patients for a duration of seven years.

**Detailed Description:** Intrapartum ultrasound monitoring is to be compared with conventional labor monitoring to clarify the accuracy of this technology, and then provide a basis for later related research. All pregnant women intending to have a vaginal delivery were enrolled in the study. After admission, women were randomly assigned to either intrapartum ultrasound (IPUS) or vaginal examination (VE). In IPUS group, the patient was evaluated by ultrasound, including fetal orientation, pelvic and cervical conditions. IPUS and VE were performed every 2 to 4 hours during the first stage of labor and at least hourly during the second stage. The progress of labor, the occurrence of complications and the prediction of the success rate of vaginal delivery were observed. Finally, the investigators compared whether there were any differences in labor and vaginal delivery complications between the two groups.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The investigators have demonstrated the crucial role of the liver-lung axis in the distant metastasis of NPC. Furthermore, the investigators have identified a potential therapeutic approach to improve outcomes in NPC patients by identifying those most suitable for anticoagulant therapy. Further, the combination of anticoagulant therapy and anti-IL6R therapy has shown promising results in enhancing the prognosis of NPC patients. These findings highlight the significance of targeting the liver-lung axis and utilizing personalized treatment strategies for NPC.
**Detailed Description:** Distant metastasis accounts for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC)-related mortalities. Recently, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been widely explored as key mediators of bidirectional tumor-host cell interactions by mediating pre-metastatic niche (PMN) formation. However, considering the complexity of the human body, multiple organ studies of tumor metastasis remain poorly understood. Here, the investigators have demonstrated the crucial role of the liver-lung axis in the distant metastasis of NPC. The investigators demonstrated mechanistically that hepatocellular derived EVs can be specifically taken up by the lung to form a hypercoagulable pre-metastatic microenvironment associated with IL6.Furthermore, the investigators have identified a potential therapeutic approach to improve outcomes in NPC patients by identifying those most suitable for anticoagulant therapy. Further, the combination of anticoagulant therapy and anti-IL6R therapy has shown promising results in enhancing the prognosis of NPC patients. These findings highlight the significance of targeting the liver-lung axis and utilizing personalized treatment strategies for NPC.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Echocardiographic examination plays a critical role in neonatology, but its bedside training faces challenges due to limited patient access. While simulation training has proven effective in different fields of adult medical care, its application in neonatal echocardiography remains unexplored.
Researchers will compare simulation-based training to usual training (theorical and bedside) for neonatal echocardiography among pediatric residents to see if simulation-trained residents have better skills.
Participants will undergo :
* theorial, simulation-based and bedside training or
* theorical and bedside training only.
**Detailed Description:** All participants were granted full access to the online theorical course throughout the semester of participation, which encompass a presentation of the study and a theorical training. In addition, during their Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) residency/night shifts, all residents had the possibility to learn bedside transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and document their experiences using a collection form provided at the time of inclusion.
Beyond access to the e-learning, the simulation group participated in standardized training using the neonatal simulator EchoCom\|Neo during the first month of their 6-month residency in NICU. The training session involved a maximum of four residents at the same time, one teacher and one EchoCom\|Neo simulator.
The session consisted of the modified Peyton 4-steps process (demonstration, deconstruction, comprehension, performance) with the normal heart scenario set on the simulator, presentation of a persistent ductus arteriosus (PDA), a pericardial effusion case and an evaluation of each resident individually, on the simulator set with normal heart scenario, performing a TTE with a description of the visible structures. The minimum passing score for the validation of the training session was set at 12 out of 14 (reference score, table 1). If the minimum passing score was not achieved, a second training session must have been scheduled until the minimum passing score was reached.
The entire simulation session typically lasted between 2.5 to 3 hours. For standardization of training sessions, pre-registered videos were used whenever applicable (presentation of the simulation session, presentation of the simulator, and first and second Peyton's steps), and the training was conducted by the same teacher throughout the study, in the respective hospital of each resident (Caen, Rouen or Tours).
Two evaluation timepoints were defined at the middle (3 to 4 months after initial training, M3-M4), and at the end of the 6-month residency (6 months after the training, M6).
The evaluation session took place using the EchoCom\|Neo simulator (EchoCom GmbH, Nieheim, Germany), set with the normal heart scenario, and placed on an open neonatal warmer, in the respective hospital of each resident. Each resident was evaluated individually with video recording for second evaluation.
Before starting the evaluation, each resident had 5 minutes to familiarize themselves with the handling of the simulator probe. They were asked to perform 7 TTE sections, with the teacher listing each expected TTE section at the beginning of the evaluation.
At each evaluation session, two evaluators conducted independent assessments. One evaluator was a pediatric cardiologist, blinded to the randomization, while the other was a pediatric resident (the simulation TTE training's teacher). One evaluator was physically present during the evaluation, while the other used video recording. Each evaluator assigned two scores for each resident:
* A reference score: 2 points for each section (optimal, suboptimal, not found), total out of 14 points.
* A custom-made score: 1 point for each anatomic structure within each section, emphasizing visualization and recognition of heart structures, total out of 33 points.
The duration of the TTE at 3 and 6 months were also recorded with second precision. Following the second evaluation at M6, the number of bedside TTE performed was documented, and a satisfaction questionnaire based on a Likert scale was requested.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The aim of this research is to specify the changes in brain connectivity (i.e. EEG phase synchronisation between brain regions) associated with semantic learning between individuals belonging to different age groups.
**Detailed Description:** Semantic memory is a crucial concept in cognitive science. It has long been conceptualised as a static, amodal memory system containing knowledge about the world, concepts and symbols. Although recourse to this concept is inevitable, the mechanisms, both cognitive and neurobiological, that govern it are far from being elucidated. There are many debates and controversies in this fundamental field of cognitive science, and more specifically around the question of the acquisition and formation of knowledge in semantic memory. The literature on the development of semantic memory during ontogeny is full of contradictions.
A review of this literature highlights the many unanswered questions surrounding semantic memory. How quickly is information encoded and then consolidated into a format that justifies the term semantic knowledge? What are the neural bases underlying the formation of knowledge in semantic memory? How does semantic knowledge evolve through new episodes? How do these mechanisms evolve during ontogeny? To what extent can some semantic learning be preserved from cognitive ageing? In the face of these many questions, the literature highlights the lack of tasks enabling semantic memory to be approached in an operational manner and the need to specify the cerebral mechanisms involved at different ages of life.
The general hypotheses that will be tested as part of the ULIS project are as follows:
1. New semantic learning is possible independently of episodic memory processes.
2. This learning differs according to the age of the participants.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The aim of this clinical trial is to determine whether 5-layer hydrocellular dressings are effective in preventing the development of pressure sores during prone positioning in the intensive care unit. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- are hydrocellular dressings the best strategy for preventing pressure sores? is this strategy simpler and less costly? The researchers will compare hydrocellular dressings with hydrocolloid dressings to find out whether they are more effective in preventing the development of pressure sores in the prone position.
Participants will be given either hydrocellular or hydrocolloid dressings, and caregivers will assess whether or not pressure sores develop after prone positioning.
**Detailed Description:** Hydrocellular dressings will be compared with hydrocolloid dressings to determine their effectiveness in preventing pressure ulcers during ventral decubitus in intensive care. The dressings will cover the skin in at-risk areas, and caregivers will assess whether or not pressure sores develop in these areas after prone positioning. The stage of these pressure sores will also be assessed.
The time spent on each strategy and the cost per strategy will also be evaluated. Dressings will be applied for the entire period during which participants are placed in the prone position. If they develop pressure sores during this period, they will be followed up until their discharge from intensive care to study the evolution of these pressure sores.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this quasi-experimental pre- post test study is to test a patient-tailored live music intervention's effect on stress and pain reduction in adult, critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit.
The main question it aims to answer is:
• Does live music reduce stress and pain in adult intensive care patients?
In the pre-post test design, the patients will be their own control. There will be no randomisation. Researchers will compare measurements of heartrate, respiration rate, heartrate variability, blood pressure and pain before and after the live music intervention to see if live music effects these vital parameters.
Participants will listen to live music in their room in the intensive care unit for 5 to 15 minutes.
**Detailed Description:** 1. Introduction The intensive care unit (ICU) has been and is still undergoing paradigmatic changes and technological advancements, meaning that an increased number of patients are conscious during their ICU stay and more survive to remember their ICU admission. Patients are admitted to the ICU because they are in urgent need of life saving treatments. However, an ICU admission can be a traumatic experience for patients and their relatives. The ICU patient room is designed with the purpose of promoting advanced care and treatment performed by the healthcare professionals. However, the room leaves little space for positive sensory inputs for the patients and the relatives; rather the environment is a highly technological, noisy, unfamiliar and often frightening experience for the patients and their relatives - memories of this may follow them for years. In this project, the investigators aim to test patient-tailored live music as an intervention to reduce stress and pain for adult ICU patients.
2. Project aim The aim of this study is to test a patient-tailored live music intervention's effect on stress reduction in adult, critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit.
3. Design and analysis method The study is a quasi-experimental pre- post test study, with patients being their own control. The pre-post test measurements will be carried out at predefined time points (5 minutes before and 5 minutes after the intervention). Our primary outcome, the HRV, will be measured continuously 5 minutes before the music intervention, during the whole intervention and 5 minutes after the intervention. There will be no randomisation.
Relevant static calculations will be performed using Stata. Statistical analysis will be supported by a statistician at CONNECT (A data support centre for clinical and genomic data).
4. Music intervention This study will be performed in collaboration with the Royal Academy of Music, Aarhus, Denmark (RAMA) and ICU departments across Central Denmark Region, Aarhus University Hospital being main investigator.
The musicians have participated in a training programme after which they are able to carry out one-on-one patient-tailored music sessions for adult patients at the ICU carried out in the patient's room.
Each music intervention comprises three components: 1) A prior briefing by the nurse on the patients' condition relevant for the musical practice 2) A patient-tailored live music session in the patient room and 3) A debriefing with the nurse.
The musicians plan a programme for each intervention day, and the patients will therefore not have the opportunity to choose specific pieces of music. The musicians prepare a mix of relaxing, soothing, familiar and unknown music with low-pitched instruments, e.g., guitar and piano, in a slow tempo (60-80 beats per minute), with a predictable musical structure, rhythm, and tonality, as it has been shown that low-pitched and low-intensity music may be calming and may regulate arousal levels. The length of the music intervention will range from 5 to 15 minutes depending on how many music pieces the patient wants to listen to or based on the nurse's assessment of the patient's condition.
5. Sample size Aarhus University Hospital is the main research centre, but the study is a multi-centre study with participation of the Regional Hospitals of Gødstrup, Horsens and Viborg; all have agreed to participate. The intervention is fully implemented at all hospitals.
The sample size is calculated based on an estimated population of 1103, corresponding to the patients receiving the intervention at all four sites annually. The investigators have determined that a sample size of 202 is needed to estimate the effect with a confidence level of 95%, margin of error of 5% and population proportion of 80%.
Patients will be included consecutively.
6. Project organisation and feasibility As Aarhus University Hospital is the main study site and also the largest, the investigators will include the majority of patients. This means that the investigators will have a larger percentage of the total sample size than the regional hospitals. A project nurse will collect data at each site.
The project group consists of one project nurse and one nurse manager at each site.
Furthermore, the group consists of Professor in Nursing at Aarhus University Hospital Pia Dreyer, Associate Professor at The Royal Academy of Music (Aarhus/Aalborg) Margrethe Langer Bro, project nurse Linette Thorn and the main applicant. The results from this pretest-posttest study will be published in a peer-reviewed journal (e.g., Nursing in Critical Care). Results will also be presented at national and international conferences.
7. Impact of the project Instead of being exposed to an unpleasant room with little opportunity to rest their minds, patients (together with their relatives) will be given the opportunity to experience positive, musical stimuli that bring pleasant experiences and memories, which may support the patients mental well-being and rehabilitation both in the short and long term. The project has the potential to be implemented in more ICU departments across Denmark and potentially also in a broad range of non-ICU hospital departments.

**Brief Summary:** The goal of this multicenter randomized trial is to evaluate the impact of a personalized video-based stroke education platform on patient-centered and health system-centered outcomes. The main questions this study aims to address are:
1. Does a personalized, video-based educational platform improve stroke knowledge?
2. Does a personalized, video-based educational platform reduce post-discharge health system utilization?
3. Do different strategies of nudging improve engagement with educational material after hospital discharge?
In order to determine the effect of this personalized stroke education strategy, researchers will compare subjects who receive standard stroke education with those who receive the personalized stroke education platform in addition to standard standard education. Patient knowledge will be assessed 90-days after discharge. Study participants will include both stroke patients and caregivers, who will:
1. Receive standard education during the stroke hospitalization
2. Complete a survey on the day of hospital discharge to assess their baseline knowledge.
3. Half of the subjects will be randomly assigned to also receive access to the personalized stroke education platform on the day of discharge.
4. All subjects will complete two follow-up study visits (7 and 90 days after discharge) in order to complete surveys.
**Detailed Description:** Stroke education represents a unique opportunity to empower stroke survivors (and caregivers) to promote self-management, augment adherence, and reduce post-stroke healthcare utilization. Despite being a key quality metric for stroke centers, most patient and caregiver education is poorly retained and a common source of dissatisfaction. In fact, most survivors are unaware of the cause of their stroke, their modifiable risk factors, and how to properly respond to future stroke symptoms. Although there is no gold standard, most centers rely on a combination of bedside verbal communication and standardized printed materials. Prior work has clarified that effective and durable educational interventions benefit from engaging content, personalization, accessibility, and low cost/burden. Retention is very poor during the stroke hospitalization, but this can be overcome by promoting ongoing engagement after discharge.
To that end, our group developed a web-based educational platform (MyStroke) that leverages the electronic health record to personalize video-based educational content for each stroke survivor. Simple but engaging videos are curated to address each patient's stroke etiology, individualized risk factors, prescribed stroke prevention medications, and post-stroke lifestyle issues. This approach transforms point-of-care stroke education, and integrated nudges reveal opportunities for re-education and re-engagement after hospital discharge to achieve a durable impact. In a recent single-center pilot trial, MyStroke improved patient and caregiver satisfaction and improved key elements of stroke knowledge. The objective of this proposal is to build upon our encouraging preliminary experience and conduct a multicenter randomized trial to evaluate the impact of MyStroke on both patient-centered (stroke knowledge, self-efficacy, satisfaction, quality of life) and health system-centered outcomes (medication adherence and health system utilization).
Electronic nudges will leverage principles of behavioral economics (i.e. enhanced nudges) to promote ongoing engagement. Our preliminary data indicate that even bland nudges promote engagement, but here we propose to use both bland nudges and enhanced nudges, such that platform analytics will compare the influence of different nudge types. Use of technology in this context stands to bridge geographic distances, connect stakeholders, and increase access to information, but it important to recognize the potential to exacerbate inequities for elderly patients and those with limited access to technology. Issues of digital inclusivity will be evaluated to reveal opportunities for platform improvement. The MyStroke platform offers a scalable solution stroke education which imposes no burden on the clinical team due to its reliance on a limited number of input fields which can be harvested from the electronic health record to individualized content for each patient.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Lateral epicondylitis is a pathologic condition of the musculotendinous system, characterized by the presence of pain at the lateral epicondyle of the humerus; it is a tendinopathy of the extensor muscles of the forearm, often caused by overuse or repetitive use of the arm, forced extension of the elbow, or direct trauma to the humeral epicondyle. This study evaluated the efficacy of Extracorporeal ShockWave Treatment (ESWT) combined with a supplemental nutraceutical treatment of Hyaluronic Acid, Collagen, Vitamin C, and Manganese, compared with single treatment in patients with lateral epicondylitis in term of improvement in pain, functional capacity, muscle strength, and reduction of inflammation on ultrasound images. A clinical trial was conducted at the U.O.C. of "Recovery and Functional Rehabilitation" of A.O.U.P. "P. Giaccone" of Palermo from Marc 2024 to July 2024. Patients were randomized into 3 groups: in group "A", n° 5 sessions of focal ESWT were given every six days; in group "B", patients took daily for 30 days, supplemental nutraceutical treatment of Hyaluronic Acid, Collagen, Vitamin C, and Manganese; and group "C", patients had combined treatment of ESWT (one session every six days for a total of five sessions) and nutraceutical supplementation (one administration per day for one month). All patients were evaluated at enrollment (T0), after one month, at the end of rehabilitation treatment (T1), and at a follow up 30 days after the end of treatment (T2). Researched will compare patients treated with ESWT or with nutraceutical treatment, and patients who had combined treatment to see if there are real differences in term of pain reduction and improved short- and long-term quality of life.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The leading cause of birth defects, Congenital Heart Defects (CHD) affect 12 million people worldwide and 41,000 newborns/year in Europe. It's a major cause of life-long morbidity and mortality, and a crucial public health issue. More than 50% of childs born with critical CHD will develop Neurodevelopmental Disorders (NDs), requiring specific care and impairing quality of life. NDs corresponds to early and lasting disturbances in cognitive, affective and behavioral development, linked to abnormalities in brain development. They are heterogeneous, affecting language, learning, motor skills, intellectual efficiency, social cognition, attention, memory and executive functions, and are associated with psychosocial difficulties (adaptive behavior, social interactions). This hidden handicap is the main long-term sequels of CHD, even before cardiovascular sequels, in individuals who often underwent multiple heart operations in early childhood. NDs concern not only complex CHD, but also simple CHD repaired in childhood and considered cured.
The origin of TND associated with CHD is largely unknown. To date, few genetic or environmental causes have been clearly identified, but recent work has suggested that a common origin may link cardiac malformation and neurodevelopmental abnormality.
The CATAMARAN - Pediatrics project is designed to detect potential neurodevelopmental delays associated with CHD as early as age 3, and to identify individual susceptibility factors involved in the occurrence of NDs in CHD children.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The upper limbs play an essential role for safe and efficient walking in healthy persons and persons post-stroke. Nevertheless, in current post-stroke gait rehabilitation (research) the upper limbs are barely targeted. To address this gap, my project aims to investigate the selective motor control of the upper limbs during walking and the contribution of the cortical activity to the arm swing in independent walkers after stroke.
To gain insight in the direct effects of stroke on the arm swing, the primary motor control of the arm swing will be evaluated by determining muscle synergies (i.e group of muscles working together as a task-specific functional unit). Additionally, the cortical activity (EEG-analysis) during walking of persons post-stroke will be compared to healthy controls and the relationship between stroke-induced changes in cortical activity and arm swing deviations will be assessed. Furthermore, I will evaluate whether improvements in cortical activity relate to improvements in primary motor control of the arm swing.
This innovative project will be the first to investigate the direct coupling between the cortex and the muscle synergies in persons post-stroke during independent walking to investigate the arm swing. These fundamental insights in the primary motor control of the arm swing and the contribution of the cortical activity will allow to develop targeted interventions aiming to improve arm swing and as such optimize post-stroke gait rehabilitation.
Research questions:
1. How can muscle synergies explain arm swing alterations in independent walkers after stroke?
2. How do stroke-induced changes in cortical activity relate to arm swing deviations in persons after stroke?
3. Are changes in primary motor control of the upper limb during walking related to normalization of brain activity in independent walkers after stroke?

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study will sequentially evaluate three novel and scalable interventions for at-risk individuals on long term opioid therapy for chronic pain: (1) low-dose transdermal buprenorphine initiation without a period of opioid withdrawal; (2) a brief Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for pain (CBI); and (3) "accelerated" rTMS over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, by examining standardized repeated measures of clinical outcomes at baseline, during treatment, and at 4-, 12-, 24- and 52-week follow-up.
**Detailed Description:** With little evidence available to guide the provision of clinical care for patients on long-term opioid therapy (LTOT) in whom the risks outweigh the benefits, major questions remain about optimizing the risk/benefit profile of LTOT, including: how to best engage patients voluntarily in this process; the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of newer treatment approaches; and optimal treatment selection. The primary objective of the proposed study is to begin to systematically address gaps in this important area to improve pain, reduce risk, and improve quality of life for individuals on LTOT.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Low level laser treatments have been used to treat painful trigger points in myofascial pain syndrome (MPS), but the effectiveness of the appropriate laser type and parameters is still uncertain. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of different types of low level laser treatment (LLLT) in reducing pain levels, changing oxygen saturation and bite force in patients with MPS.
**Detailed Description:** A total of 45 patients with MPS were randomly divided into three groups. First group received LLLT with GRR laser over massater muscle region. Patients in the second group were treated with Nd:YAG laser and the same protocol with Nd:YAG laser was performed in the placebo group using sham device. Pain was evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS), change in oxygen concentration in the massater muscle was measured by functional near-infrared spectroscopy- fNIRS and bite force was measured with Flexiforce sensors before and after treatment.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** PASS2 aims to expand upon the recently completed study (PASS intervention), which tested the telephone delivery of a cognitive behavioral intervention (CBI). This study will use Interactive Voice Response (IVR) to optimize the intervention's effectiveness for smoking cessation among Veteran smokers with chronic pain.
**Detailed Description:** Veterans with chronic pain represent an important population in which to focus smoking cessation efforts. Smoking cessation among patients with chronic medical illnesses substantially decreases morbidity and mortality; yet, many patients (\>50%) with chronic pain continue to smoke.
This study aims to:
1. Determine whether the existing integrated pain and smoking cessation (PASS intervention) augmented with IVR (PASS-IVR) is superior to treatment as usual (e.g., referral to standard VA smoking cessation clinic) enhanced with pharmacotherapy tele-consult (E-TAU) at 6 (primary endpoint) and 12 months on cigarette abstinence rates among non-depressed Veterans with chronic pain.
2. Determine whether PASS-IVR is superior to E-TAU at 6 (primary endpoint) and 12 months on pain interference.
3. Examine critical components of the intervention process to inform future program implementation.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** In keeping with the SNRT recommendations for measuring abstinence, we will use prolonged abstinence as our main outcome and allow for a grace period around quit date. During the 6- and 12-month follow-ups, patients will be asked about prolonged abstinence, "Since \[end of the grace period\] have you ever smoked at least a part of a cigarette on each of 7 consecutive days?" and "After \[end of the grace period\] have you smoked any in each of 2 consecutive weeks".
**Measure:** Cigarette Smoking Abstinence Rates
**Time Frame:** 6-month and 12-month follow-up
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** Patients will be asked whether they have smoked a cigarette, even a puff, in the past 7 days and, if no, will be asked whether they have smoked a cigarette, even a puff, in the past 30 days.
**Measure:** Point prevalent abstinence
**Time Frame:** 6-month and 12-month follow-up
**Description:** Pain intensity and interference will be assessed using the 11-item BPI. The BPI also assesses chronicity of pain and areas of the body with pain.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** PREGMPOXCO study addresses the escalating Mpox virus (MPXV) infections among pregnant women in South Kivu, DRC following a novel MPXV sub-lineage, predominantly transmitted through heterosexual contact, stressing critical gaps in our understanding of MPXV's impact on pregnant populations. To better understand this altered transmission pattern of MPXV and its impact on this vulnerable population, PREGMPOX will employ both passive and active surveillance techniques to methodologically capture MPXV incidence among pregnant women over two years, integrating data from routine antenatal care and targeted community outreach to timely assess the MPXV's effects on maternal and neonatal health. In sentinel study sites in hot spot areas, the incidence of mpox among pregnant women will be investigated and potential transmission routes determined. MPXV(+) pregnant women will be asked to participate in a cohort study where they will be followed until delivery to document pregnancy outcomes (e.g.: miscarriage, stillbirths, preterm deliveries, neonatal mpox), maternal immune response, virus abundance and pathological changes in the placenta. This will help to determine specific risk factors and modes and frequencies of vertical transmission to the unborn, and generate a list of clinical and immunological predictors for adverse outcomes for pregnant women and neonates. Data on MVA-BN exposure will also be captured to report on its real world effectiveness. As a prerequisite to evaluate the safety of the MVA-BN vaccine and tecovirimat treatment in pregnant women according to the new DRC guidelines, we will establish a comprehensive register of adverse pregnancy outcomes, using a pharmacovigilance model to monitor and analyse adverse events following immunization and treatment. The results of our multidisciplinary studies will be crucial for developing guidelines and recommendations to manage mpox more effectively during pregnancy, and for potentially influencing global health policies.
**Detailed Description:** The PREGMPOX study employs a prospective cohort design enriched with a nested case-control component, adeptly tracking the dynamics of MPXV infection among pregnant women.
This approach incorporates a rigorous baseline data collection phase that enhances the understanding of initial disease presentation and risk factors associated with confirmed MPXV infection. Such detailed profiling at baseline is critical for identifying early disease characteristics and potential co-factors affecting outcomes. Further, follow-up and endline assessments are strategically planned to estimate the incidence of new infections and assess mother-child health outcomes in various groups: those testing positive versus negative for MPXV, vaccinated versus unvaccinated individuals, and comparisons between those treated with tecovirimat versus those who are not. This structured analysis allows for an in-depth evaluation of intervention effectiveness and safety. The study design also includes a test-negative case-control approach as a secondary analytical method. While not the primary focus-given the high specificity of PCR in confirming MPXV in over 90% of cases-this approach is valuable for confirming intervention effectiveness under natural conditions. This methodology is designed to avoid the ethical concerns often associated with randomized control trials in vulnerable populations, ensuring the feasibility and relevance of the study's outcomes. PREGMPOX employs a strategic combination of passive and active surveillance methods to comprehensively track the spread of MPXV among pregnant women, aiming to capture the full spectrum of the virus's impact. Passive surveillance is embedded into routine antenatal care, where healthcare providers systematically monitor and document MPXV symptoms, leveraging the existing healthcare infrastructure. This allows for the continuous collection of data within a clinical setting. In contrast, active surveillance extends beyond the confines of healthcare facilities, involving community health workers who engage directly with the community to identify and document MPXV cases that might not otherwise come to clinical attention. This includes setting up specialized screening stations that facilitate the detection of cases in non-clinical environments. This dual surveillance approach is vital due to the severe risks associated with MPXV, particularly the high rates of foetal demise linked to severe infections. By combining both surveillance strategies, PREGMPOX enhances its capability for early detection and effective response, including prompt referral for necessary interventions. This comprehensive data collection and proactive case finding strategy are crucial for implementing timely interventions that could prevent severe outcomes in pregnant women and their foetuses, thereby mitigating the broader impact of the MPXV outbreak. PREGMPOX will also contribute to basic research in this vulnerable population where data is scarce by conducting immunological and histopathological assessments to understand the mechanisms underlying the impact of MPVX infection on pregnancy. These assessments will be conducted through a nested case-control study within the larger cohort. Samples will be collected at specific time points to evaluate immune responses to MPVX infection or vaccination and to study placental pathology in infected cases.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** An observational study will be conducted in approximately 14 participants to evaluate the ability of a wearable, wireless acoustic Respiratory Monitoring System (RMS) to accurately measure a participant's respiratory rate, tidal volume, minute ventilation, and duration of apnea in a noisy environment. Sensor accuracy will be measured with adaptive filtering and active noise cancellation turned on versus turned off.
**Detailed Description:** The Respiratory Monitoring System (RMS) consists of a miniature acoustic sensor and a soft flexible cradle that is adhered to the skin of the neck over the proximal trachea (within the sternal notch) with medical grade adhesive. The sensor body consists of a miniature bell stethoscope head, electronics, a microphone that faces the trachea and a microphone that faces the external environment, a Bluetooth low energy transmitter/receiver, an antenna, and a rechargeable battery. The sensor is secured by the cradle at the optimal location to measures the sounds of airflow in the proximal trachea during inhalation and exhalation.
Proprietary machine learning/AI algorithms convert the sounds of airflow into the measurements of respiratory rate (RR), tidal volume (TV), minute ventilation (MV), and duration of apnea. Sensor information is transmitted to a bedside PC that displays the vital sign data in real-time. The wearable, wireless RMS is being developed for hospital and outpatient use as a tool to detect and predict respiratory compromise/clinical deterioration in a more-timely and accurately manor (fewer false alerts/alarms) than current methods.
The breathing data from 14 to 20 participants will be recorded during one study session lasting approximately 90 minutes with the sensor/cradle adhered to the neck over the proximal trachea. Reference breathing data will be recorded simultaneously using a hospital ventilator's pneumotach and capnometer attached to a tight-fitting face mask.
Each subject will be instructed to breath the following protocol 3 or 4 times:
Record RMS data and pneumotach/capnometer data for \~400 seconds with the study subject breathing a normal RR and TV.
Record RMS data and pneumotach/capnometer data for \~70 seconds with the study subject breathing a normal RR and an increased TV.
Record RMS data and pneumotach/capnometer data for \~70 seconds with the study subject breathing a normal RR and decreased TV.
Record RMS data and pneumotach/capnometer data for \~120 seconds with the study subject breathing a normal RR and normal TV with a period of apnea in the middle (15 seconds).
Record RMS data and pneumotach/capnometer data for \~120 seconds with the study subject breathing a normal RR and decreased TV, with a period of apnea in the middle (15 seconds).
Record RMS data and pneumotach/capnometer data for \~120 seconds with the study subject breathing a decreased RR and decrease TV with a period of apnea in the middle (15 seconds).
RMS data will be compared to reference pneumotach/capnometer data (RR, TV, MV, and duration of apnea) to determine the accuracy of measurement. Data will be recorded in an environment with simulated hospital noise with adaptive filtering and active noise cancellation turned on and turned off.
This observational human study will compare the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the measurement accuracy of the RMS in a noisy environment with the adaptive filtering and active noise cancellation turned on versus turned off.
Participants will be contacted by telephone 3 to 4 days later to confirm no adverse effects from the study methods or wearing the sensor.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The primary objective of this study is to investigate the safety, feasibility, and tolerability of psilocybin treatment in individuals with functional impairment due to psychiatric symptoms.The secondary objective of this study is to determine whether individuals with functional impairments due to psychiatric symptoms will experience statistically significant symptom reduction and functional improvement from baseline symptom measurements (Visit 3) to 1-week (Visit 7), 4-weeks (Visit 8), and 6-weeks (Visit 9) post dosing. We will recruit individuals with mood, anxiety, trauma, addictive, or related symptomatology, and who have functional impairment associated with these symptoms. We will not limit recruitment to any particular DSM diagnosis; we allow for comorbidity and only exclude based on safety considerations. Critically, this approach will allow us to assess the tolerability of our interventions in individuals who would typically be excluded from efficacy studies due to various comorbid DSM conditions.
We will employ an open-label study where participants will be given one dose of oral psilocybin 25mg. We will also have follow-up visits at 1, 4, and 6 weeks and an optional long-term follow-up at 3, 6, and 12 months.
**Detailed Description:** In this Phase 1b proof-of-concept clinical trial, we aim to investigate the safety, feasibility, and tolerability of treatment of oral psilocybin in participants with functional impairment due to depressive, anxiety, trauma addictive, or other psychiatric symptomatology, allowing for comorbidity and diagnostic complexity to mirror potential real-world clinical scenarios. Secondarily, we will assess improvement in functional status and symptomatology.
We will employ an open-label study design, with participants receiving one dose of oral psilocybin. This is an open-label clinical trial with a single treatment arm and no blinding. All participants will receive 25 mg of oral psilocybin. All dosing will be accompanied by non-directive support before, during, and after treatment sessions.The rationale for conducting this study lies in recognizing that the narrow inclusion and exclusion criteria commonly employed in clinical trials may raise issues of external validity. While previous research has predominantly focused on specific diagnostic categories, our study aims to address these limitations by exploring the safety, feasibility, and tolerability of psilocybin in a heterogeneous population.
This study also recognizes the importance of symptom-related functional impairment as a cross-cutting construct relevant to all diagnostic categories.This is a Phase 1b open-label clinical trial to determine the feasibility, tolerability and safety of psilocybin to reduce psychiatric symptoms in participants experiencing functional impairment. Participants will receive one dose of oral psilocybin (25mg). Follow-up visits for assessments and measures at 1-week, 4-week, and 6-week post psilocybin dosing. Long-term follow-up visits assessments and measures for participants who consent to long-term follow-up (reassessments of study measures) for 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month post dosing.
Psilocybin (4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) occurs in nature in many species of mushrooms, including the genera Psilocybe, Conocybe, Gymnopilus, Panaeolus, and Strophparia. Its chemical formula is C12H17N2O4P. Psilocybin is a potent agonist at 5-HT2A/C receptors; potency of binding by related compounds to these receptors correlates with human potency as hallucinogens. Psilocybin is currently a Schedule I substance. Psilocybin will be orally administered in this study. Psilocybin will be administered in an opaque, size 2 gelatin capsule with approximately 180 ml of water to be orally ingested at Visit 5. The dose of psilocybin will be 25 mg.
Descriptives for all safety measures (e.g., C-SSRS total and subscale scores, vitals, documented adverse events) will be compiled at all assessment intervals. Classification of adverse events will follow institute and regulatory body guidelines. Subsequent summary descriptives may focus on safety indices surrounding the dosing session and 1-week, 4 weeks, and 6-weeks after dosing. In addition, we will perform descriptives and non-parametric analysis screen failure rates (including analysis of ineligibility), drop out rates pre and post dosing to determine feasibility and tolerability.

### Arms Interventions Module
#### Arm Group 1
**Description:** Subjects will undergo a Trial Phase with DTM™ SCS programming. Stimulation will be delivered from an external neurostimulator. Those who have a "successful Trial Phase" will proceed to permanent implantation of the Intellis™ SCS system to evaluate DTM™ SCS therapy and will undergo up to 24 months of stimulation delivery.
Subjects randomized to either treatment group will have the optional possibility to crossover to the alternative treatment arm after the 6-month visit. If the subject and investigator believe that the DTM™ SCS + CMM treatment has not generated sufficient pain relief to warrant continued treatment, then the subject will be provided with the option to crossover to the CMM group. If all SCS programming attempts fail, then DTM™ SCS therapy will be switched off and the subject will continue with their CMM treatment and will visit the clinic approximately a total of 18 months follow-up in the study (i.e. 6 months DTM™ SCS and 12 months CMM).

### Eligibility Module
**Eligibility Criteria:** Inclusion Criteria:
* Cancer diagnosis of any type
Exclusion Criteria:
* Individuals who are currently receiving active chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy will be excluded given that their dietary and physical activity requirements may vary widely and are outside the parameters of the current study.
* Individuals who are currently pregnant or lactating will be ineligible for the current trial given different nutritional needs and potential safety concerns, as well as physiological and hormonal differences that could interfere with our ability to test the study aims.
* Current involvement in a weight loss program or current use of weight loss medication is an exclusion for the proposed trial because it undermines the internal validity of the study given we are interested in the potential of the integrated lifestyle intervention to promote weight loss. If individuals are engaging in other programs or taking medications, we would not know whether weight losses observed during this study were due to the intervention or some other weight loss method.
* Individuals will be excluded if they report any other uncontrolled medical conditions that may pose a safety issue given the recommendations for the diet and unsupervised physical activity (e.g., uncontrolled hypertension). We will refer individuals who have blood pressure levels \>140/90 mmHg as part of baseline screening to their physician and exclude them from this study unless their treating physician determines s/he is a suitable candidate based on the specifics of the protocol and provides written medical consent for participation. Participants who report a history of or current treatment for medical conditions (e.g., hypertension) will be asked to obtain MD consent to participate because this treatment program involves unsupervised physical activity, as well as experiential physical activity during treatment sessions; it is important to ensure that the exercise that will be promoted in the program will be safe and appropriate for these individuals given their medical history. Similarly, this program promotes specific changes to diet which may or may not be endorsed by an individual's physician given their medical condition.
* Individuals with rheumatologic and gastrointestinal conditions associated with severe systemic inflammation (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn's disease) will be ineligible for participation given a heightened inflammatory response as well as the frequent use of medications that may modulate inflammation, representing a confound to test the study aims.
* Individuals with medical conditions resulting in known perturbations in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (e.g., endogenous hypercortisolemia \[Cushing's syndrome\] or adrenal insufficiency) will be ineligible for participation as this represents a confound to test the study aims.
* Individuals who report a heart condition, chest pain during periods of activity or rest, or loss of consciousness as assessed by the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q) administered during screening will be excluded. Individuals endorsing joint problems, prescription medication usage, or other medical conditions that could limit exercise will be required to obtain written physician consent to participate. As noted above, this treatment program involves unsupervised physical activity, as well as experiential physical activity during treatment sessions; it is important to ensure that the exercise that will be promoted in the program will be safe and appropriate for these individuals given the symptoms they have reported at screening.
* Report of lifetime diagnosis of Anorexia Nervosa or Bulimia Nervosa, or any compensatory behaviors (vomiting, laxative abuse) within the previous 3 months, as these individuals are at higher risk for disordered eating behaviors and their clinical history/present symptoms place them at elevated risk for potential adverse effects from participation in an intervention targeting eating and physical activity, particularly one that involves frequent self-weighing and monitoring of dietary intake.
* Hospitalization for depression or other psychiatric disorder within the past 12 months will be an exclusion given potential psychological safety concerns. Although the AILI will teach evidence-based strategies for emotion regulation and management of affective states, the program is not designed to treat mental health disorders. Moreover, individuals who have experienced severe psychological symptoms requiring hospitalization in the recent past could experience harm or worsening of symptoms because of the self-monitoring of mood/affect promoted in this study and the group discussion.
* Individuals with a lifetime history of bipolar disorder or psychotic disorder will be excluded because the proposed AILI would be poorly suited to the needs of individuals with severe mental illness and could serve to exacerbate symptoms.
* Indication of current suicidal intent as reported on the Beck Depression Inventory-II, which will be administered in person at the baseline assessment. Any individual who scores 3 on item 9 will be ineligible for the study. While suicidal ideation (i.e., thoughts of harming oneself) is common, having a plan or intent to harm oneself presents much greater risk to the individual and participation in this study would be contraindicated as the treatment program is not well suited to meet their needs and a higher level of care (e.g., individual psychological treatment) is warranted.
* Inability to speak and read English is an exclusion criterion given that all written measures and treatment materials are in English, and interventionists are English-speaking.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** We share our lives with microorganisms, and these generally do not pose a problem if an individual is healthy with a normal immune system. However, if the immune system was not functioning properly (e.g., cancer patients), they are at risk of infection. One microorganism, a fungus called Pneumocystis jirovecii (PCP), can cause severe chest infections in patients without properly functioning immune systems, leading to hospitalisation and death if untreated. If patients remain without a functioning immune system, they have a greater chance of repeated infection.
PCP spreads through air from person-to-person and can survive on environmental surfaces. Patients can be infected after contact with these surfaces. Hospitals have a responsibility to ensure PCP infected patients do not pass it on to other unwell patients. In cases where PCP has infected multiple patients, knowing if the same fungi has been passed along (or transmitted) from patient-to-patient is vital in understanding if there is an outbreak in the hospital. Understanding how similar (the relatedness) the PCP strain is allows healthcare workers to detect any transmission between patients or the environment.
To understand how related each patient's PCP infection is we will utilise a laboratory test called multilocus sequence typing (MLST). This test looks at sections of the fungi's genetic code using deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequencing to create a code (genotype) which tells us how related one PCP is to others tested, allowing comparison between patients and ultimately spotting transmission.
Our aim is to develop this sequencing test using PCP positive patient samples and ensure it performs to high-quality standards. Surplus material from seventy known PCP positive patient samples will be tested. Each sample will be analysed to see if the DNA genotype matches or is similar to other patient samples we have tested, helping to understand how PCP may spread between patients.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** There is a lack of knowledge about the extent of bicycle injuries in Norway. Among other things, a significant underreporting of bicycle injuries has been found in the official road traffic accident statistics based on police-registered accidents. Furthermore, there is a lack of knowledge about the long-term consequences of serious bicycle injuries. The main purpose of this project is to generate new knowledge about the consequences of bicycle injuries for later disability, employment status and use of prescribed drugs. In addition, we want to study whether such long-term consequences vary according to demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, as well as to assess the degree of overlap between bicycle injuries registered in the official road traffic accident statistics and bicycle injuries registered in the health service, including an assessment of the severity of the injury. We will use a retrospective analysis where a population-based dataset from the National Population Register is linked with information on injured cyclists from Statistics Norway's database on police-reported road traffic accidents, the Norwegian Patient Register, the National Trauma Registry and the Norwegian Cause of Death Registry. In order to study the long-term consequences of bicycle injuries, we will also compile information on social security benefits and employment from Statistics Norway's historical events database (FD-Trygd) and the use of prescribed drugs from the Norwegian Prescribed Drug Registry. We will also collect information on income and educational attainment from registers in Statistics Norway. The project will contribute to increased knowledge about the societal and individual burden of bicycle injuries, knowledge that is crucial for prioritizing and implementing necessary preventive measures.
**Detailed Description:** Research protocol
Long-term consequences of cyclist injuries
1. Project organisation The research activity described in this protocol constitutes one work package of the research project ReCyCLIST (Recording Cyclist Crashes and Long-term Injury Consequences by new Smart Tools). The ReCyCLIST project is a collaboration between research institutes from the health and transport sciences, public authorities, medical expertise, web-tool developers, and end-user organisations. The project is coordinated by the Institute of Transport Economics (TØI), with Torkel Bjørnskau as overall project manager. Additional project partners in this work package include the National Institute of Public Health (NIPH) and the Norwegian Trauma Registry (NTR)/Oslo University Hospital (OUS).
The project group in this work package, which in the following will be referred to as "the project", consists of the following researchers:
* Torkel Bjørnskau (TØI)
* Ingeborg Hesjevoll (TØI)
* Rikke Ingebrigtsen (TØI)
* Katrine Karlsen (TØI)
* Eyvind Ohm (NIPH) - project leader
* Christian Madsen (NIPH)
* Elling Tufte Bere (NIPH)
* Yusman Bin Kamaleri (NIPH)
* Svetlana Skurtveit (NIPH)
* Olav Røise (NTR/OUS)
2. Background Increased use of bicycles and other modes of active transport is regarded as essential if we are to reach global goals in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution and vehicle congestion \[1-2\]. The positive health effects of bicycling are also well documented \[3-6\]. To facilitate a shift in mode of transport from car to bicycle, national and local authorities in many countries have imposed car use restrictions in urban areas and made substantial investments in cycling infrastructure. Such initiatives have contributed to an increase in the popularity of bicycling during later years, and the Covid-19 pandemic has further escalated this trend. Other prominent trends are the increased use of e-bikes and the rapid uptake of e-scooters and other micro mobility devices.
A potential downside of these trends, however, is an increase in crashes and injuries \[7\]. Research has established that bicyclists have a much higher risk of injuries than car occupants \[8-9\]. Yet, the true number of bicycle injuries is largely unknown. As in other European countries, bicycle injuries in Norway are vastly underreported in official road accident statistics \[10\], and the level of underreporting is increasing \[8\]. There is a huge mismatch between official road traffic statistics based on police-reported accidents and the number of injured cyclists receiving health care. This discrepancy is particularly large for single-bicycle crashes (i.e., crashes where only one cyclist and no other vehicle is involved) \[11\]. Thus, official road accident statistics provide a poor basis for monitoring trends in bicycle injuries and for designing preventive measures.
Furthermore, little is known about the long-term consequences of bicycle injuries, including their impact on health-related quality of life and other functional outcomes \[12\]. A particular concern involves post-injury opioid use and the risk of dependence on prescription drugs in the management of chronic pain \[13\]. For targeted prevention of such long-term consequences, more knowledge is also needed about sociodemographic risk factors.
In this project, we aim to address these knowledge gaps by applying a retrospective register-based design, where we link individual-level data on cyclist injuries, sociodemographic characteristics, welfare benefits, employment status and use of prescribed drugs from different nationwide registers.
3. Objectives
This project has three primary objectives:
1. To assess the degree of overlap of cyclist injuries registered in the official road accident statistics and in the health services, and thereby map the level of underreporting of cyclist injuries in the former data source
2. To obtain knowledge of long-term consequences of cyclist injuries with respect to:
1. Disability
2. Employment status
3. Use of prescribed drugs
3. To examine whether such long-term consequences vary by sociodemographic characteristics
4 Methodology
4.1 STUDY DESIGN To address these issues, we aim to construct a population-based dataset containing census data (including sociodemographic information) from the National Population Register for all individuals residing in Norway in the period 2008-2021. This dataset is to be linked with information on injuries registered in four data sources: 1) Statistics Norway's (SSB) database on police-reported road traffic accidents, 2) the National Patient Registry (NPR), 3) the Norwegian Trauma Registry (NTR) and 4) the Norwegian Cause of Death Registry (DÅR). To analyse long-term consequences of cyclist injuries with respect to disability, employment status and use of prescribed drugs, we will further link data for adults aged 18-67 years from SSB's historical events database (FD-Trygd) and the Norwegian Prescribed Drug Registry. Finally, to examine socioeconomic differences in risk of such long-term consequences, we will link data on educational attainment and income, both supplied by SSB.
The overall population-based design of our study was chosen to enhance the validity of our estimates and to facilitate the interpretation of our statistical analyses. For instance, when assessing long-term consequences of cyclist injuries and how these vary by sociodemographic characteristics, it is paramount to collect this type of information also for individuals that have not been involved in bicycle crashes. By including the whole population, we will generate a more powerful comparison group than other potential designs and reduce potential sources of bias. Moreover, this design will allow for more robust estimates of incidence rates and risk factors for the outcome variables by including valid estimates of person-time at risk. To control for the occurrence of non-cycle injuries that may influence functional outcomes, we will also collect information on other types of injuries, both for injured cyclists and for the population at large.

4. Norwegian Trauma Registry: Since 2015, NTR contains nationwide data on patients admitted to hospital with potentially severe injury (i.e., high- and low energy trauma patients). From this register, we aim to use information about all injured patients admitted to trauma-receiving hospitals in the period 2015-2021, including the following variables:
* Date and time of injury
* Municipality where injury occurred

6. FD-Trygd: FD-Trygd is Statistics Norway's historical events database, which links basic demographic data with employment records and information about services and benefits administered by the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration (NAV). We aim to use the following variables from this database:
• Sickness benefit
* Work assessment allowance
* Disability benefit

* Prescription category (narcotic drug, other addictive drug, prescription drug)
8. The National Education Database (NUDB): From this database we will include information about highest educational attainment, coded according to the Norwegian Standard Classification of Education, and the year this level was achieved. The database is administered by Statistics Norway.
9. Statistics Norway's income database: Statistics Norway collects income data by linking different administrative registers and statistical data sources, including tax returns. From this database we will include the following variables:
• Pensionable income
• Total income
* Household income
* Taxable gross wealth
4.3 STATISTICAL ANALYSIS To map the degree of overlap of cyclist injuries between health registers (NPR, NTR and DÅR) and the official road traffic accident statistics, we will compare the number and characteristics of such injuries (in total and in different sub-populations) registered in these four data sources. To obtain knowledge of long-term consequences of cyclist injuries, we will perform descriptive analyses to examine disability rates, employment status and use of prescription drugs. We will further use Poisson regression to model incidence rates with respect to various injury-related factors (injury severity, type of accident, injury mechanism, helmet use etc.) and to examine the degree to which these long-term consequences vary by sex, age, and other sociodemographic variables.
4.4 REQUIRED PERMISSIONS
The project will require permissions from:
• The Regional Committees for Medical and Health Research Ethics (REC) for advance ethical approval
• Statistics Norway (SSB) for access to microdata from the National Population Register, the police-reported road accident database, FD-Trygd and socioeconomic data (including data from NUDB)
• The Norwegian Directorate of Health for access to injury data in NPR
* Oslo University Hospital (OUS) for access to trauma data in NTR
* The Norwegian Institute of Public Health (NIPH) for approval of Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) and for access to data in DÅR and the Norwegian Prescribed Drug Registry
4.5 PROCEDURE FOR DATA LINKAGE Statistics Norway will define the study population as described in paragraph 4.1 and generate project-specific ID numbers with linkage to the unique personal ID numbers given to all Norwegian residents. Statistics Norway will then link data from the National Population Register, the police-reported road accident database, FD-Trygd and sociodemographic data according to specifications described in paragraph 4.2. Likewise, the Norwegian Directorate of Health, NTR and NIPH will link their respective data. After linkage, each data owner will send these datasets (in which the unique personal ID number is deleted and replaced by the project-specific ID number) to the project. The Norwegian Directorate of Health, NTR and NIPH will subsequently delete the file linking the personal ID numbers and project-specific ID numbers, which will for the duration of the project be stored securely by Statistics Norway.
5 Significance and ethical aspects The study will improve our understanding of the societal and individual burden of bicycle injuries and provide new knowledge of their long-term consequences. Exploring sociodemographic risk factors will further guide policy makers in identifying effective safety measures.
The project will follow ethical guidelines for statistical analysis and presentation of results, considering both privacy issues and statistical robustness. A potential risk involves identification of individuals. However, the files received by the project contain no directly identifiable information, as unique personal ID numbers are replaced by project-specific ID numbers. To minimise the risk of backwards identification, analyses will be performed on files containing only the variables needed to address the different research questions. For instance, to assess the degree of overlap between injured cyclists in health registries and the official road traffic accident database, analyses will be restricted to variables common to these data sources, thus omitting information on welfare benefits, use of prescription drugs and socioeconomic variables. Level of detail will also be reduced, for instance by categorising age into 5-year age groups. In addition, analyses of long-term consequences of bicycle injuries (including sociodemographic differences in such consequences) will be restricted to adults aged 18-67 years.
Another potential risk is stigma attached to specific groups of individuals, for instance those receiving welfare benefits. However, this project will not present detailed information about such groups. All results will be presented on aggregate level, and results based on few observations (\< 6 individuals) will not be presented or discussed.
The project will include sensitive information about individuals (e.g., medical diagnoses, use of prescription drugs, receipt of welfare benefits and measures of comorbidity/functional status). However, we will not collect any new data, but utilise data already registered in other data sources. The use of these data is regulated by law. To ensure secure storing of data, we will use Services for sensitive data (TSD), which is a service where users can collect, store, share and analyse data within a secure environment with a high degree of safety .
6 Project timeline
The project will be developed in tasks with the following timeline:
• Task 1 Preparation and linkage of registers: January 2022 - February 2023
• Task 2 Main data analysis: February 2023 - May 2023
• Task 3 Estimation of overlap between different registries: March 2023 - June 2023
• Task 4 Dissemination: by December 2026
7 Funding The ReCyCLIST project is funded by the Research Council of Norway (NFR) and Agder County.
8 Dissemination A designated ReCyCLIST project website (https://www.toi.no/recyclist/) will be used for regular communication of project updates and results.
For this specific work package, we plan to submit three focused articles to peer-reviewed international journals, for open access publication. The following are tentative titles with suggested articles in brackets.
1. Degree of overlap between injured cyclists in official police-reported accident statistics and hospital data (Journal of Transport \& Health) 2. Long-term health consequences of bicycle crashes (Accident Analysis \& Prevention or Journal of Transport \& Health) 3. Sociodemographic differences in long-term consequences of bicycle crashes (BMC Public Health or European Journal of Public Health)
In addition, results from this project will be presented at national and international seminars and conferences. Nationally, the most relevant will be the yearly conferences arranged by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration, the Norwegian Safety Forum, and the Norwegian Council for Road Safety (Trygg Trafikk). Internationally, relevant conferences include the biannual Safe Communities Conference, the annual International Cycling Safety Conference, and the biannual Transportation Research Arena.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the main stabilizer of the knee joint, as it controls anteroposterior and rotatory knee laxity. The number of ACL injuries has increased in the past three decades because more and more people participate in recreational and competitive sporting activities. Injury to the ACL often leads to functional instability, damage to the meniscus and articular cartilage, and an increased risk for osteoarthritis (OA). Emphasizes the fact that ACL has limited healing potential 'The gold standard' treatment is ACL reconstruction, with over 200,000 reconstruction surgeries performed annually in the United States. However, despite the success of surgery in restoring functional stability, it has been found so far in several studies that the prevalence of moderate to severe arthritis in long-term radiographic follow-up is more than 50% after ACL reconstruction within 5 to 15 years or sooner. ACL-injured knees had at least 3 times higher risk of arthritis than uninjured contralateral knees. Early osteoarthritis was observed on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) up to 11 years following ACL injury after operative and nonoperative management. Because ACL injuries predominantly occur in individuals between the ages of 15 and 25 years, symptoms of OA most often affect patients during their most productive years. This is worrisome because most patients who sustain ACL tears are free of the risk of other factors for developing OA.Consequently, posttraumatic OA after ACL reconstruction ultimately translates into a large economic effect on the healthcare system owing to the young age of this population. Platelet-rich plasma is an autologous solution of highly concentrated platelets dispersed in a small capacity of plasma. Enthusiasm for the therapeutic potential of platelets is based on its rich omplement of anabolic growth factors and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the platelets, which induce cellular proliferation, migration, differentiation, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix synthesis. In addition, the functional mechanisms of PRP in OA treatment have been explained by its effect on modulating critical pro-inflammatory mediators and catabolic enzymes, as well as maintaining joint homeostasis. The reasons for this early incidence of post-traumatic OA remain unclear, but the underlying mechanisms have been speculated to involve some combination of cartilage damage at the time of injury, and posttraumatic molecular changes in the joint, including immune reactions or persistent secondary inflammation. We hypothesized that PRP injection after ACL reconstruction could prevent cartilage damage, act anti-inflammatory, and provide better clinical and radiological outcomes seen in MRI.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) is estimated to affect over 100 million adults and is targeted as an instigator of opioid dependence (OpD). Opioid medications are often the first response for patients suffering with CMP; yet over 10 million people admit to misusing opioids annually. With the opioid epidemic, the healthcare system now has a population of patients who experience CMP with concurrent OpD (CMP/OpD). This persistent problem can create a perfect storm of kinesiophobia, reduced self-efficacy, and physical dysfunction. A critical component to chronic pain management is understanding how patients view their pain experience. Education may be one key that unlocks the door to functional improvement, but traditional physical therapy (PT) education utilizes anatomical models that focus on tissue damage and peripheral sources of pain. Researchers have explored educating people about pain via Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE), a cognitive-based intervention that facilitates understanding of the biological processes underpinning the pain state. PNE may facilitate understanding pain experiences that are normal and expected, with the intent to reduce fear and increase pain self-efficacy. As yet, utilization of PNE has not been researched in patients with CMP/OpD. Therefore, authors hypothesize that the introduction of an adapted PNE (a-PNE) curriculum, as a single intervention, may facilitate positive changes in kinesiophobia, pain self-efficacy, and knowledge of the neurophysiology of pain for patients with CMP/OpD.
**Detailed Description:** Methods Study Design This study was a pre-test-post-test, quasi-experimental design with patients suffering from CMP/OpD being treated at a family practice clinic associated with University of Kentucky. A quasi-experimental study was chosen due to the small sample of convenience.
Patients Patients were recruited from an opioid management program (OMP) at the referenced family practice clinic. At the time of study recruitment, the OMP had 31 patients participating monthly.
Procedures The 21 participating patients were divided into two groups via a coin toss; 13 were included in the experimental group (PNE) and eight were included in the general health education control group (GHE).
All patients reviewed and signed the IRB approved consent/HIPAA form and performed the MMSE. Each patient completed the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-11), Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ), and the Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire (NPQ) at the onset of the study. All intervention sessions were completed once per month directly after the patient's regularly scheduled monthly OMP appointment.
The PNE group received the a-PNE curriculum which was created with patient-friendly verbiage and used to educate subjects about the inner workings of the nervous system. The a-PNE curriculum, a PowerPoint presentation was divided into four, 15-minute, one-on-one sessions with the PI in a private treatment room to facilitate discussion and minimize distractions. The educational information was related directly to the patients' CMP/OpD experience to personalize the intervention and presented at a pace that was appropriate for each patient. At the conclusion of each session, the PNE group was provided handouts containing information that was reviewed during that session. At the end of the a-PNE intervention, the patients completed the three questionnaires.
The GHE group was provided practical education for healthy living over four monthly sessions, 15-minutes per session. The GHE intervention was comprised of topics promoting healthy living in a one-on-one session with the PI in a private treatment room to facilitate discussion. At the conclusion of each session, the GHE group was provided handouts containing information that was reviewed during the session. At the end of the GHE intervention, the patients completed the three questionnaires.
It should be noted that no patients were receiving other physical therapy interventions throughout the time of the study. The principal investigator removed exercise-related language and overt physical therapy-related topics to focus primarily on the psychosocial constructs for both groups. Considering the many factors surrounding this cohort, multiple sessions were chosen for the two groups to minimize the effects of CMP/OpD of decreased attention span, decreased working memory and decreased cognitive flexibility, which has been demonstrated in the literature.
Ninety days after the completion of the intervention sessions and the post-program assessments, a follow-up data collection was performed in which all patients completed the three questionnaires. After the research study was complete and all data collected, the GHE subjects were offered the identical a-PNE intervention which was utilized with the PNE group.
Statistical Analysis Statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS software (v.27.0, SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The significance level was set at P\<0.05. The scores of three patients who did not complete the study were removed from the data set.
Normative distribution was evaluated utilizing the Shapiro-Wilk test. Descriptive statistics, including means and standard deviations (SD), were gathered for baseline demographic data. A group (a-PNE or GHE) by time (pre-intervention, post-intervention, and 90-day post-intervention) interaction analysis of variance (ANOVA) was completed for each dependent variable. Analysis included the Mauchly's Test of Sphericity to correct for violations. Bonferroni's correction was used as needed. Pearson's correlation was performed to inquire of correlation between variables.
Paired samples t-tests were conducted on each group and utilized to analyze pre-intervention to post-intervention and pre-intervention to 90-day post-intervention scores for each of the three dependent variables.

### Interventions
#### Intervention 1
**Arm Group Labels:**
- Pain Neuroscience Education group
**Description:** Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE) is a cognitive-based education intervention that aims to change pain beliefs in patients experiencing CMP. Researchers have found PNE beneficial in assisting patients to reframe their understanding, attitudes, thoughts, and beliefs regarding their pain experience. PNE directs patients to relate chronic pain to overly sensitive nerves rather than assumed tissue damage. Further, PNE encourages patients to perform daily activities, work, and function in society, all despite pain. This facilitates behavior changes that are key in amending a patient's biopsychosocial state. Multiple sources make a strong case for the incorporation of PNE in having positive effects on reducing physical disability and modulating fear and anxiety in patients with CMP. Researchers have established a positive influence of PNE toward decreased kinesiophobia and have demonstrated a relation between increased self-efficacy and increased functional ability.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Kinesiophobia was measured by the 11-question TSK-11. Kinesiophobia is the fear of movement, or the fear of pain associated with movement. Subjects rate each item on a 4-point Likert scale with scoring ranging from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree". The TSK-11 tool specifically assesses a subject's fear of pain due to movement and is a valid and reliable tool for measuring kinesiophobia. The highest score available on the TSK-11 is 44 points, with higher scores indicating increased fear. The minimum detectible change (MDC) for the TSK-11 is 5.6, minimal clinically important difference (MCID) is 6 points, and test-retest reliability is 0.81 (95% CI, 0.58-0.93).
**Measure:** Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK-11)
**Time Frame:** Pre-intervention (baseline), post-intervention (4-months past baseline), and 90-day post-intervention (7-months past baseline)
**Description:** The patient's confidence with function despite pain, or self-efficacy, was measured by the Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ). The PSEQ measures a patient's confidence in performing certain tasks, despite pain, and has a maximum score of 60 points which relates to the most positive outcome for the subject (with zero being the lowest self-efficacy). The PSEQ is a valid and reliable tool for measuring pain self-efficacy with a test-retest reliability of 0.85 (95% CI, 0.74-0.92), MDC of 10.9 and MCID of 11 points.
**Measure:** Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ)
**Time Frame:** Pre-intervention (baseline), post-intervention (4-months past baseline), and 90-day post-intervention (7-months past baseline)
**Description:** Knowledge gained and retained regarding the neurophysiology supporting the CMP experience was measured via the Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire (NPQ). The NPQ is a 12-item assessment that seeks to measure how a subject understands the biological mechanisms that sustain the pain experience. Statements are answered true, false, or unsure. There are 12 points possible with a higher score indicating more retained pain knowledge. Post-intervention, the NPQ will ascertain the subject's understanding of the a-PNE curriculum. The NPQ currently has no test-retest reliability, MDC or MCID available.
**Measure:** Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire
**Time Frame:** Pre-intervention (baseline), post-intervention (4-months past baseline), and 90-day post-intervention (7-months past baseline)

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of two distinct dietary supplement beverage formulations designed to maintain normal blood pressure. In this study, safety and tolerability will be assessed among otherwise healthy, normotensive individuals.
**Detailed Description:** The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of 2 dietary supplement beverage formulations in healthy, normotensive individuals. The study period will be 29 days in length, during which we will monitor and catalogue the blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP), complete blood count (CBC), as well as self-reported side effects of all subjects on a daily basis. Note that each beverage will be evaluated at multiple doses: Beverage 1 will be monitored at a low, medium and high dose, where the medium and high dose is quantitatively twice (2X) and thrice (3X) the low dose (1X), respectively. Similarly, we will evaluate Beverage 2 at a low dose and high dose where the high dose is quantitatively twice (2X) of the low dose (1X). A placebo treatment will also be incorporated into this study as well. As such, there will be 6 groups in this study. Three subjects will be assigned to each treatment group for a total of 18 subjects.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The purpose of the current investigation is to demonstrate the efficacy of high-dose furosemide plus small-volume hypertonic saline solution and a Sodium-Glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor among patients admitted for acute exacerbation of heart failure, in determining a significant increase in diuresis and natriuresis. It is also accompanied by a rapid reduction in body weight and a substantial decrease in hospitalization length without compromising renal function.
**Detailed Description:** All enrolled patients will undergo a comprehensive physical examination post-randomization. This examination will involve a meticulous assessment of congestive heart failure (CHF) indicators, encompassing the measurement of bodyweight (BW) (taken in the morning before breakfast), supine and standing blood pressure (BP \[average of 3 readings\]), and heart rate (HR). Fasting blood samples will be collected daily throughout the hospital stay to ascertain serum laboratory parameters (creatinine, sodium, potassium, and N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide) until achieving a clinically stabilized condition. Urine output will be measured daily, also to detect creatinine, sodium, potassium urinary levels and glycosuria. Additionally, an electrocardiogram and echocardiogram (to derive EF using the modified Simpson rule with 2 cross-sectional views \[4- and 2-chamber apical views\], right atrium volume (RA volume, ml/m2), left atrial volume (LA volume ml/m2), inferior vena cava diameter (IVC diameter, cm), interventricular septum thickness at end-diastole (IVSd, cm), right ventricular basal diameter at end-diastole (RVD1 basal, mm), right ventricular mid diameter at end-diastole (RVD2 mid, mm), right ventricular longitudinal diameter at end-diastole (RVD3 long, mm), right ventricular outflow tract at proximal and distal (RVOT prox and distal, mm), fractional area change (FAC, %), E wave dominant (m/s), A wave dominant (m/s), tricuspid valve E/A wave ratio (E/ATrV), tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE, ms), eak velocity in early diastole of tricuspid annulus (TDI) (m/s), tricuspid valve e'/a' ratio (TDI, m/s), peak systolic velocity tricuspid annulus (Pulsed TDI, m/s) will be conducted prior to hospital discharge.
Patients will be categorized into 4 groups: the first group will undergo 15 minutes intravenous infusion of furosemide combined with hypertonic saline solutions (100 mL) twice daily along with severe water restriction (\< 500 mL); the second group will receive intravenous furosemide as a bolus twice daily and severe water restriction (\< 500 mL) without hypertonic saline solutions; the third group will undergo 15 minutes intravenous infusion of furosemide combined with hypertonic saline solutions (100 mL) twice daily, severe water restriction (\< 500 mL), and SGLT2 inhibitors (Dapagliflozin); the fourth group will receive intravenous furosemide as a bolus without hypertonic saline solutions twice daily, severe water restriction (\< 500 mL), and SGLT2 inhibitors (Dapagliflozin). The groups will maintain a normal sodium intake (120 mmol/day). The daily furosemide dosage will be determined based on diuretic requirements, urinary output, BP readings, and the severity of congestion signs and symptoms. The hypertonic saline solutions dosage for each patient (in groups 1 and 3) will be determined following these guidelines: for serum Na values of 125 milliequivalent/L, the hypertonic saline solutions concentration will be 4.6%; for serum Na values between 126 and 135 milliequivalent/L, the hypertonic saline solutions concentration will be 3.5%; and for serum Na values of 135 milliequivalent/L, the hypertonic saline solutions concentration will range between 1.4% and 2.4%. Throughout the study period, patients diagnosed with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF) will receive angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, sartans, angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors, beta blockers, and mineralocorticoid inhibitors. The objective is to optimize heart failure therapy in alignment with the most recent European Society of Cardiology guidelines published in August 2023. Daily, there will be meticulous monitoring of body weight (in the morning before breakfast) and 24-hour urinary volume measurements. Serum and urinary laboratory parameters will be assessed daily until achieving a clinically stabilized condition, defined as a shift in New York Heart Association functional class to at least second b and reaching the ideal body weight calculated via the Lorenz formula. Upon attaining this clinically stabilized state, intravenous administration of furosemide and hypertonic saline solutions will cease, transitioning to oral furosemide administration, while maintaining the unchanged optimal therapy post-discharge according to the standard protocol.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Weakness of respiratory muscles delays weaning from the ventilator, prolongs hospital stay and increases treatment costs. Conventional treatments for respiratory muscles reverse these negative effects. İntensive care services are a set of services that have a very important place in public health care due to the vital support and they provide to all critically ill patients. This care services are constantly improving with the use of technological innovations. With the development of technology, virtual reality application has begun to be used therapeutically in the field of physiotherapy. Virtual reality is the combination of reality and imagination with fictions created using technology. Today, developers can surprisingly create realistic worlds filled with artificial intelligence that behaves believably. Studies have shown positive effects of virtual reality on acute respiratory frequency, pain and fatigue, and in light of this, it was predicted that it would be beneficial to apply to intensive care patients. This study will shed light on the rehabilitation of patients in intensive care and contribute to the literature.
**Detailed Description:** In the study, it was aimed to benefit from the effects of virtual reality application in intensive care patients and have a positive effect on vital signs and respiratory parameters in the early period.
This study will be randomly divided into two groups and it is planned to include 17 partipitants in each group. The first group will receive only conventional treatment, and the second group will receive virtual reality application in addition to conventional treatment. To evaluate the effectiveness of the application, vital signs, respiratory muscle strength, grip strength, blood gas analysis, shortness of breath and fatigue will be evaluated. Additionally, Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS), Nonverbal Pain Scale, Glaskow coma scale, Physical Function Test in Intensive Care (PFIT)-CPax (Chelsea Critical Care Physical Assessment Tool) scales will be used. All evaluations will be made before and after the application and a comparison will be made between the two groups.

For each system, points between 1 and 4 are given and the total score is evaluated between 6 and 24. In this score, as the score increases for each system, organ failure is considered to occur.
**Measure:** SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment)
**Time Frame:** 3 days
**Description:** A Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is one of the pain rating scales used for the first time in 1921 by Hayes and Patterson\[1\]. It is often used in epidemiologic and clinical research to measure the intensity or frequency of various symptoms.For pain intensity according to VAS, "no pain" is usually rated as 0 points and "worst pain imaginable" as 10 points. Ranges for pain intensity; \<3. mild pain, 3-6 moderate pain, \>6 severe pain
**Measure:** Visuel Anaolog Scale
**Time Frame:** 3 days
**Description:** It is a tool that healthcare providers use to measure decreases in consciousness.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The aim of this study was to investigate the semen analysis results of male patients with first-degree relatives meeting the diagnostic criteria for PCOS.
**Detailed Description:** Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine metabolic disorder characterised by menstrual irregularity, anovulation, clinical and/or biochemical signs of hyper androgenism (hirsutism and/or acne), micropolycystic ovaries and metabolic abnormalities.
This syndrome is clustered in family members and appears to be inherited through an oligogenic mechanism (1,2). As a result of familial clustering of the PCOS phenotype, metabolic risks have been shown to increase in family members, independent of gender.
The presence of a genetic background in the etiopathogenesis of PCOS means that men may also have signs and symptoms equivalent to PCOS. In addition, the genes responsible for PCOS susceptibility in women are also transferred to male relatives of these individuals. Hormonal and metabolic abnormalities have been identified in male relatives of women with PCOS. These men have shown a higher prevalence of early-onset (\<35 years) androgenetic alopecia (AGA), type 2 DM and cardivascular diseases. In addition, prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostatitis have also been defined more frequently in this group of individuals (1,3).
In addition, differences in responses to gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and FSH and LH levels were found in the brothers of women with PCOS compared to control groups.
According to genome studies (GWAS), FSHB gene on chromosome 11p14.1 represents the PCOS susceptibility focus in women (1). Genetic variations in FSHB affect male reproductive function. In fact, polymorphisms of the FSHB promoter have been associated with lower sperm count, higher LH, lower FSH and lower testicular volume (3,4).
In the light of this information, in this study, it was planned to evaluate the comparison of semen analysis results of male patients with a first-degree relative diagnosed with PCOS with the control group.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Currently, there is no prediction scale available to identify patients with rectal neoplasms as technically complex in the middle and lower thirds; that is, those who are at high risk of affected circumferential margins and low quality of the mesorectum. The application of a predictive model that allows preoperative identification of the group of patients in whom optimal results in mesorectal quality and circumferential margin are less likely to be obtained through laparoscopic or minimally invasive surgery would enable the selection of patients who will require and justify all efforts and healthcare resources to improve surgical outcomes.
Therefore, the investigators aim to create a predictive model to identify these patients, allowing the discrimination of which patients will benefit from different techniques, or even which ones would be opportune to initially consider an open approach.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Food intake along with the gene are important factors that influence human nutrition status and health. Indonesia has a balanced nutrition diet guide for ideal food consumption. The FTO rs9939609 gene is known to be related to obesity. This study aimed to examine the effect of a balanced nutritional diet intervention on body composition among different single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of the FTO rs9939609 gene in obese young women in Bandung City, West Java, Indonesia.
**Detailed Description:** A Balanced Nutrition Diet is a group of food menus that contain carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals which are prepared based on the principles of diversity, balanced, regular and safe proportions in types and quantities that suit the body's needs adapted from the My Meal Dish Content/"Isi Piringku"; and "Tumpeng Gizi Seimbang" rule based on the Balanced Nutrition Guidelines of the Republic of Indonesia Minister of Health Regulation No. 41 year 2014. Although a balanced nutritional diet has not been widely used as a dietary intervention for obese people compared to the Mediterranean diet, there is research that shows that providing a low-calorie balanced nutritional diet based on traditional Indonesian food for 8 weeks can reduce body weight and body mass index, waist circumference, and body fat percentage of the research subjects were statistically significant.
Apart from eating habits, genetic factors also play an important role in the development of obesity. One of the most important genes associated with obesity is the FTO (fat mass and obesity-related) gene located on chromosome 16. Several polymorphisms in the FTO gene are known to be associated with increased body mass index (BMI) and other anthropometric values, severe obesity conditions, and risk of diabetes mellitus, although there are differences in different ethnicities. Several studies have also examined the association of the FTO gene with several parameters related to cardiovascular risk. The FTO rs9939609 gene polymorphism is one of the genes commonly studied in relation to obesity. The rs9939609 FTO gene consists of TT, TA, and AA genotypes. Allele A is a group of mutant genotypes or is called a risk allele (TA and AA) while TT is a group of wild genotypes or is considered a non-risk allele.
Evidence suggests that compared with TT wild type, the risk allele A FTO rs9939609 gene showed significantly higher body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, and waist-to-hip ratio. The waist-hip circumference ratio is a stronger indicator of cardiovascular disease than body mass index. The A allele carriers of the FTO rs9939609 polymorphism had a higher fat percentage. Until now, no one has ever linked the FTO gene polymorphism and the Balanced Nutrition Diet intervention, which is a reference in Indonesia, as well as its effect on the body composition of obese young women, especially in Sundanese ethnicity. This study aimed to examine the effect of a balanced nutritional diet intervention on body composition among 2 types of the FTO rs9939609 gene in obese young women in Bandung City, Indonesia.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The aim was to evaluate the effects of the application of a Mediterranean diet on the reproductive and metabolic parameters in the 3rd month in patients with a body mass index of 25 and more who were followed up in our clinic due to a PCOS diagnosis.
**Detailed Description:** Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine-metabolic disorder characterized by menstrual irregularities, anovulation, clinical and/or biochemical symptoms of hyperandrogenism (hirsutism and/or acne), micropolycystic ovaries and metabolic abnormalities. Phenotype A: HA + OD + PCOM; phenotype B: HA + OD; phenotype C: HA + PCOM and phenotype D: OD + PCOM). According to the Rotterdam criteria, endocrine and metabolic abnormalities are lowest in the OD + PCOM group among these 4 different phenotype groups. The prevalence and distribution of metabolic abnormalities (insulin resistance, metabolic disease and glucose intolerance) among the phenotypes do not differ significantly between the 4 groups. Therefore, metabolic abnormalities and distribution characteristics are not suitable to distinguish different clinical PCOS phenotypes. Some inflammatory cytokines are elevated in PCOS, which is characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation. Although the exact mechanisms of inflammation in PCOS are not yet fully understood, it is thought to be mediated by obesity, insulin resistance and high androgen levels. This inflammatory state has a negative impact on the risk of future health problems and quality of life in PCOS. Therefore, strategies to reduce inflammation are considered important. Establishing medical nutrition therapy for PCOS has significant implications for reducing this inflammation and preventing the disease. At this point, the Mediterranean diet, which has been shown to have a protective effect against many diseases, is receiving a lot of attention. Among the components of the Mediterranean diet, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants and fiber in particular can contribute to reducing inflammation through various mechanisms. The international scientific community has strongly emphasized the role of the Mediterranean diet and the lifestyle it inspires in increasing life expectancy and improving public health. For these reasons, the Mediterranean diet can be considered as a nutrient pool containing nutraceuticals and bioactive components in foods that can positively influence health both directly and through their own epigenetic mechanisms. Recent studies suggest that the Mediterranean diet can influence both the incidence and severity of PCOS and the treatment of the disease.
The main objective of our study is to evaluate the effect of the MedDiet, which is known to be anti-inflammatory and based on energy restriction and the Mediterranean dietary approach, on the reproductive and metabolic parameters of PCOS patients with a higher than normal body mass index.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** It remains unclear whether CPAP therapy should be prescribed if significant hypoxemia persists during CPAP titration, despite optimization of upper airway obstructive events, if maximum CPAP pressure is reached.
The goal was to examine the effects of 6 months of home AVAPS therapy in patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome as a potential option for patients who failed CPAP titration due to persistent hypoxemia.
**Detailed Description:** Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is one of the leading indications of home non-invasive ventilation (NIV) initiation. In patients with OHS, NIV improves daytime vigilance, decreases PaCO2, improves sleep quality, and improves physical activity.
Thus, the primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of 6-month noninvasive ventilation with average volume-assured pressure support (AVAPS-AE) ventilation on objective sleep quality and adherence to therapy in stable patients with OHS who failed CPAP titration.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) has become a major public health problem. Achieving remission (HbA1c\<6.5% without glucose-lowering medications) has recently become a new treatment goal. Low-calorie diets effectively induce remission, but adverse effects like fatigue, appetite, and constipation hinder success. Integrating traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbs into a low-calorie diet may alleviate adverse effects and improve remission rates.
This project investigates the efficacy of a Low-Calorie Medicine Diet (LCMD) in achieving T2DM remission among overweight/obese individuals through a randomized controlled trial. The investigators will explore individual differences in remission and elucidate the underlying biological mechanisms, focusing on the brain-gut-microbiota axis. By integrating nutrition and TCM dietetics, this project provides a novel, evidence-based approach to managing T2DM in Chinese populations.
**Detailed Description:** Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) has become a major public health problem, and effective prevention and treatment strategies are urgently needed. Recently, the understanding of T2DM has shifted to "a disease that can be remission." Achieving remission, defined as HbA1c\<6.5% without using glucose-lowering medications, has become a new treatment goal for T2DM. Evidence suggests that a low-calorie diet is an effective approach to induce remission. Our previous research (NCT05472272) also demonstrated that a low-calorie diet can achieve remission in Chinese T2DM patients.
However, adverse effects during the intervention, such as fatigue, appetite, and constipation, have become significant barriers to successful remission. These symptoms often result in poor adherence to the intervention plan and, consequently, failure to achieve remission. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), fatigue and constipation are typical symptoms of "Qi Vacuity", while hunger is more associated with "Yin Vacuity". "Herb is the food" is a unique concept in TCM. Integrating TCM herbs into a low-calorie diet may help alleviate these adverse effects and improve the likelihood of achieving diabetes remission.
This project aims to investigate the efficacy of a Low-Calorie Medicine Diet (LCMD) in achieving remission of T2DM among overweight/obese individuals through a randomized controlled trial. The investigators will also explore individual differences in achieving remission and elucidate the underlying biological mechanisms, focusing on the brain-gut-microbiota axis. By integrating theories from nutrition and TCM dietetics, this project seeks to provide a novel, evidence-based approach to the management of T2DM in Chinese populations.

**Allocation:** RANDOMIZED
**Intervention Model:** PARALLEL
**Intervention Model Description:** Participants are assigned to one of two groups in parallel for the duration of the study
##### Masking Info
**Masking:** QUADRUPLE
**Masking Description:** The control placebo is a ten-fold dilution of the Chazhu Xiaozhi decoction, supplemented with colorants and bittering agents to mimic the appearance and color of the treatment drug. An independent researcher (not involved in the trial operations or evaluations) is responsible for managing the randomization sequence and drug coding, and will distribute the appropriate drugs to participants at the right times. This ensures that the trial operators and evaluators are unaware of the treatment type; only the independent researcher has this knowledge. During the experiment, the assessment of treatment effects and the recording of adverse events are carried out by independent evaluators who are unaware of the treatment groups. Both the trial operators and the evaluators do not have access to the drug coding and randomization sequence.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Iron deficiency anemia is well known as a risk factor that worsens postoperative morbidity and patient prognosis. Several studies have shown that intravenous iron administration before surgery is effective in reducing the risk of iron deficiency anemia and improving the postoperative prognosis. However, the risk of iron deficiency anemia after surgery is increased due to the resection of the duodenum, the main organ for iron absorption. Very few studies have been conducted on the postoperative effects of higher pancreatoduodenectomy.
Observe changes in hematological parameters in patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy due to periampullary tumor and confirm the role of intravenous iron supplementation in optimizing postoperative recovery.
**Detailed Description:** Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) has multifactorial causes, including bleeding, insufficient iron absorption, and anemia related to malignant tumors or chronic diseases, which are cytokine-mediated diseases, and is a disease commonly observed in cancer patients. Since cancer surgery generally involves wide resection and tissue manipulation for radical lymph node dissection, systemic inflammation may occur after surgery. This may increase the risk of IDA in patients undergoing surgery by inducing a key regulator of systemic iron hemostasis that impairs intestinal iron absorption.
Pancreaticoduodenectomy, a representative surgery for periampullary neoplastic lesions, is a major surgery accompanied by moderate bleeding and large-scale tissue damage, which predisposes to IDA, and is highly likely to be accompanied by severe bleeding and blood transfusion. The perioperative blood transfusion rate has decreased with the advancement of surgical instruments and techniques, but still remains high at up to 60%. Moreover, since pancreaticoduodenectomy inevitably removes the duodenum, which absorbs iron into the body, the iron absorption function is physiologically impaired, making the patient vulnerable to IDA. Additionally, after pancreaticoduodenectomy, oral intake is often lacking for a relatively long period of time due to complex anastomosis. Therefore, the risk of IDA after pancreaticoduodenectomy may be very high regardless of the presence or absence of preoperative anemia.
IDA is a well-known risk factor for postoperative morbidity and poor prognosis of postoperative patients, and allogeneic transfusion to correct anemia is associated with an increased risk of developing infectious and non-infectious complications, including cancer recurrence, cardiac complications, and prolonged hospitalization. Available.
Research results are currently being published showing that correcting anemia through preoperative intravenous iron injection can improve the patient\'s postoperative prognosis. In the field of colon or heart surgery, the effect of preventing the occurrence of IDA in people diagnosed with IDA before surgery has been reported. In particular, in patients with postoperative anemia, serum hemoglobin, ferritin, and transferrin saturation levels improved rapidly, and indiscriminate blood transfusion was prevented. Another study showed that it was effective in reducing postoperative blood transfusion and intensive care unit length of stay in elderly patients. However, there is a lack of research on the effect of preoperative iron injections on postoperative clinical outcomes after pancreatoduodenectomy, where most patients are elderly and have high intraoperative bleeding.
Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in hematological parameters in patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy due to periampullary lesions and their effect on improving clinical outcomes within 12 weeks after surgery.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This project aims to explore the feasibility and efficacy of a 6-week, intensive summer literacy intervention provided to children in 1st-3rd grades.
**Detailed Description:** 1. Purpose/objective:
To determine the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a 6-week literacy summer camp for improving language and literacy outcomes of children with identified language or literacy difficulties.
2. Methods:
This intervention will be provided by students in the speech and hearing clinic on SDSU's campus. The summer clinical sessions last for 8 weeks. Week 1 will be used for the pre-testing of each participant's baseline language (morphological awareness, phonological awareness, morphosyntax, vocabulary, and narrative language skills) and reading (letter knowledge, nonword reading, reading fluency and reading comprehension). In weeks 2-7, the intervention will take place. This will consist of 3, 3-hour sessions per week. Finally, in week 8, the investigators will conduct post-testing of children's language and reading skills.
3. Subjects:
The investigators will recruit a maximum of 12 students who are in the summer after Kindergarten, first, or second grade. The investigators will be recruiting students from the local community who either a) have IEPs with eligibility of SLI or SLD-reading or b) have documented parent or teacher concern for reading and/or language skills as determined by parent questionnaire.
4. Planned analyses:
Planned analyses will include analysis of improvement in each of the language and reading skills from pre-test to post-test. The investigators will also include probes of performance of reading skills to allow for single subject analysis. The investigators will develop fidelity rubrics to explore the fidelity of intervention implementation and will analyze how fidelity relates to individual-child-level improvement.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study individual training with an immersive virtual reality Trauma Simulator was compared to live mannequin-based simulation training in a facilitated group. The results showed that virtual reality simulator led to non-inferior effects on trauma resuscitation skills to mannequin-based simulation. Trauma Simulator had good usability, was well received by the participants, and had minimal adverse effects.
**Detailed Description:** Background: Despite its high potential, the effect of immersive virtual reality simulation (VRS) in trauma resuscitation training has not been studied. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that VRS is non-inferior to mannequin-based simulation (MBS) in trauma resuscitation training.
Methods: In a single-center, randomized controlled non-inferiority trial, we compared individual training with an immersive virtual reality Trauma Simulator to live MBS training in a facilitated group. The primary outcome was the Trauma Score (ranging from 55 (worse) to 177 (best outcome)) during the MBS assessment. The secondary outcomes were the Trauma Score VRS assessment, System Usability Scale (ranging from 0 (worse) -100 (best outcome)), and Simulation Sickness Questionnaire (ranging from 0 (worse) to 235.62 (best outcome)).

#### Design Info
**Allocation:** RANDOMIZED
**Intervention Model:** CROSSOVER
**Intervention Model Description:** This was a prospective, single-center, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority, simulation-based trial comparing the use of virtual reality simulation vs. mannequin based simulation in a simulated trauma scenario.
##### Masking Info
**Masking:** SINGLE
**Masking Description:** All assessments of the student performances were recorded either by video camera (mannequin based simulation) or screen capture (virtual reality simulation). All videos were assessed by two blinded raters independently. In order to maintain consistency, virtual reality recordings were also scored manually by the raters, instead of the automated Trauma Simulator built-in tool. The video data were stored for the reviews and deleted afterwards.

#### Intervention 1
**Arm Group Labels:**
- Medical students - volunteers receiving virtual reality simulation training
**Description:** The intervention was teaching of trauma resuscitation by using VRS. Following welcome and a video lecture by Advance Trauma Life Support certified physician, the intervention group participants were orientated (15 minutes) to the VRS environment, head-mounted display (Oculus Rift S or Oculus Quest, Oculus, USA) and hand controllers by playing game First Steps (Oculus, USA). Then the participants were training by using the "Internal Hemorrhage" scenario in Trauma Simulator.
**Name:** Teaching of trauma resuscitation by using virtual reality simulation
**Type:** OTHER
#### Intervention 2
**Arm Group Labels:**
- Medical students - volunteers receiving mannequin based simulation training
**Description:** Volunteers were trained in groups of three or four by using mannequin-based rapid cycle deliberate practice simulation facilitated by a critical care physician. Next, the volunteers had 50 min training of the same trauma scenario as the intervention group. The simulation facility was set-up as close as possible to the virtual reality environment.
**Name:** Teaching of trauma resuscitation by using mannequin based simulation
**Type:** OTHER
### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** The primary outcome of the study is Trauma Score (range 55 (worst) to 177(best outcome) during an individual assessment in a mannequin-based simulation environment. The assessment was based on the video recordings analyzing students during performing in the scenario. The Trauma Score is an assessment tool developed by military emergency medicine experts for the Trauma Simulator.
**Measure:** Trauma Score
**Time Frame:** Within a Day
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** Trauma Score in the VRS environment served as a secondary outcome. System Usability Scale: a 10-item questionnaire (range 0-100, where 0 is the worst, 100 the best performance) was used to assess usability of Trauma Simulator.
**Measure:** Trauma Score in VRS
**Time Frame:** Within a VR session (less than 10minutes per person)
**Description:** The students will receive pre and post surveys. The surveys are structured to evaluate students' experience before and after the training. As a reference, the evaluation tools are made, based on Bangor et al., 2009. A custom, six-question survey (5-point Likert scale) was used to assess the perception of Virtual Reality simulation before and after the study. Presence of cybersickness was evaluated by using Simulation Sickness Questionnaire (SSQ).15 SSQ assesses 16 symptoms of motion sickness in three domains: nausea (7 symptoms), disorientation (7 symptoms), and oculomotor effects (7 symptoms). Each symptom is self-reported as none (0), slight (1), moderate (2), and severe (3). Total Severity score is calculated as the sum of individual symptom scores in each domain multiplied by 3.74 in accordance with Kennedy et al. (1993), thus the final score ranges from 0 (worst) to 235.62 (best outcome).
**Measure:** Pre- and Post-Surveys
**Time Frame:** Within a Day

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study aims to compare different versions of a 16-week online self-help program in terms of their effect on self-assessed mental health, well-being, and productivity. The versions differ in their intensity (standard, low) and type (buddy, group) of guidance, the applied psychotherapeutic approaches taught (IFS, CBT). We expect to recruit a sample of \~150 ambitious altruists and have them self-select into the four program versions. Participants take part in surveys before, at weeks 8, 12, and 16 to self-assess their productivity, mental health burden, quality of life, and other risk and protection factors. Weekly screenings will provide data on objective and subjective success components such as participant engagement, working alliance, and treatment adherence, which will be correlated with primary and secondary outcomes.
**Detailed Description:** Aim:
This study aims to compare different versions of an online self-help program in terms of their effect on self-assessed mental health, well-being, and productivity. The goal is to find out if a version might be more effective or similarly effective but less costly than the original one.
Control groups:
The original program version is an 8-week course with weekly guided group sessions of 2 hours: Third Wave CBT methods are taught by a workbook and practised in between the sessions. The pre-post results, on 42 ambitious altruists, showed significant moderate effects on all scales after week 12. In this study, we aim to compare the effects of the original version with 1. one using a buddy instead of the group format, 2. one using less guidance (3 instead of 9 group sessions), and 3. one using Internal Family Systems instead of Third Wave CBT. Instead of 8 weeks, we spaced out the same amount of sessions for the program after week 6, so that the last follow-up session will take place for everyone at week 16 now.
Sample:
We expect to deliver the program to \~150 participants, and each version to at least 25 of those. Ambitious altruists will be recruited via posts on Facebook and Slack online groups and personal contact to organizations associated with Effective Altruism. People will self-select into the different program versions. We exclude those in acute crisis, those with very low self-assessed social competence, and those who report not being ambitiously altruistic. We match groups and buddies based on availability and on, who we believe will bond better, i.e., similar age and career stage.
Measurements. Participants take part in Google form surveys before, at weeks 8, 12, and 16. These measure productivity (WPAI:GH), mental health burden (symptoms of interpersonal sensitivity, and OCD by BSI, depressiveness and anxiety by GAD7 \& PHQ8), quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF, MHC-SF, ONS-4 LS), and other relevant factors (loneliness by UCLA-3, self-esteem by Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale, connection/will to do good by IWAH). An independent researcher, likely from Maastricht University, will likely check our data, calculate the results, and publish a paper about it to reduce potential biases. Also, participants' engagement will be assessed, i.e., no-shows, and dropouts, and participants attend a weekly screening in weeks 1-8, 12, and 16 to rate different success components, e.g. session engagement, working alliance, and treatment adherence. Those measures will be correlated with the primary and secondary outcomes at one point to see what influences outcomes and how strongly.
We applied to get an official letter of exemption from an ethics review due to these reasons:
* The study is only part of the already existing programs, nothing is changed in the operations affecting the participants due to the evaluation/study run
* Measurements are part of routine progress tracking
* The data is being used for publication purposes but does not introduce new risks
* The interventions as well as the data collection are 100% non-invasive and include a signed participant consent.
* The sampling excludes potentially vulnerable individuals, i.e., those in a current crisis.

**Brief Summary:** The Strengthening the Connections to Opportunities for Prevention Engagement (SCOPE) project will create a pathway for children and families from the City of Hartford to connect with a Connecticut Children's Care Coordinator (CC) in an effort to reduce levels of violence exposure.
**Detailed Description:** The Strengthening the Connections to Opportunities for Prevention Engagement (SCOPE) project will create a pathway for children and families from the City of Hartford to connect with a Connecticut Children's Care Coordinator (CC) when they are determined to have high levels of violence exposure.
SCOPE seeks to decrease future violence exposure and increase resiliency of children with high levels of exposure to violence through Emergency Department (ED)-based case management and connections with community partners.
Hypothesis 1: VPET scores within the intervention group will show significant reductions across the study period. The percent of patients with positive VPET positive scores within the intervention group will show significant reductions from the expected 79% to 70% as compared to the control group that will have the expected 79%
Hypothesis 2: The Child and Youth Resilience Measure-Revised (CYRM) scores for the intervention group will increase by 10%, and will be significantly higher than the control group.
Hypothesis 3: At least 75% of the intervention group will be assessed as "positive" for having made a connection with community services.
Hypothesis 4: 90% of parents with children receiving case management will report being satisfied with the case management services and community connected services.
Hypothesis 5: Retention within the intervention group will be at or above 50%, with at least half of participants remaining engaged in the project.
Hypothesis 6: Compared to the control group, the intervention group will have fewer documented injuries and ED visits during the 12-month period post-enrollment.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The proposed multi-site, Genetics and Aerobic Exercise to Slow PD (GEARS) Trial will, for the first time, determine the interplay between genetics and exercise in altering PD progression. In sum, 200 PD patients will be recruited from the Cleveland and Salt Lake City metro areas to participate in the Pedaling for Parkinson's (PFP) community-based exercise program. Participants will exercise at community-based sites 3x/week for 12 months. All participants will undergo genotyping using an array that includes the genome backbone and common risk variants associated to increase risk for multiple neurological disorders including PD.
**Detailed Description:** A long-standing unmet need in the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) is the identification of a disease-modifying intervention (e.g. pharmaceutical, surgical or behavioral). A growing body of evidence indicates that high-intensity aerobic exercise, when delivered in a highly supervised, well-controlled laboratory setting, improves PD symptomology. Two fundamental gaps remain related to the widespread utilization of exercise to slow PD: 1) are community-based exercise programs effective in altering disease progression and 2) what is the role of genetics in modulating the disease altering effects of high-intensity aerobic exercise? Our underlying hypothesis is that high-intensity, community-based exercise slows disease progression in PD and does so more effectively in individuals with a lower genetic/biological burden. Genetic burden for PD will be determined through the calculation of a PD polygenic risk score (PRS).
Total study duration is \~12.5 months to accommodate data collection sessions and enrollment in PFP class. The study consists of five in-person assessments at the Cleveland Clinic or the University of Utah: informed consent, enrollment (On- and Off-medication separated by at least 24 hrs), 6 months (Off-medication), and 12 months (Off-medication). Asking participants to withhold medication for Off-state examinations imposes a burden, but the Off-state (12 hours off meds) will increase insight into the direct effect of exercise on PD and provides more reliable, less confounded time comparisons. Antiparkinsonian medication will be reconciled at Baseline, 6- and 12-month timepoints. Outcome metrics are provided in Table 1. Notably, all outcome metrics will be collected at each time point after the consent appointment (baseline on, baseline off, 6 month and 12 month) with the exception of the quality of life metrics (Neuro-QoL and MDS-UPDRS I, II, IV) which will be collected at one of the two baseline assessments (instead of both baseline assessments), 6 month, and 12 month; the quality of life questionnaires ask questions about one's quality of life over the previous 7 days and are non-specific to medication state. Genetic data and demographics will be gathered at the first enrollment assessment visit. Following the two enrollment visits, the participant will begin attending PFP classes 3x/wk at the community center most convenient to them. Participants will be recruited and enrolled on a continuous basis.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Mental health problems are amongst the major contributors to disease burden globally.
According to a recent study, 34% of young people worldwide (aged 10-19) suffer from depression and more than half of this population belongs to Southeast Asia such as Pakistan, India, and China.
Existing evidence shows that the access to mental health services in LMICs is limited and even fewer child psychiatric services are available.
One approach to overcome barriers such as limited availability of trained mental health professionals and risk of stigma may involve the use of simple, brief, scalable interventions based on basic psychological principles rather than treatment of psychopathology.
This study adapts and evaluates two brief interventions called behavioral activation single session intervention (BA-SSI) and 4-session Mindset intervention (MI) for teenage depression and anxiety in Pakistan, where access to mental health care is constrained by societal stigma and a shortage of clinicians.
**Detailed Description:** A 3-arm multi-center cluster exploratory Randomized Controlled Trial to determine the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effectiveness of a universally delivered, culturally adapted, potentially low cost, 4-session Mindset intervention (MI) and behavioral activation single session intervention (BA-SSI) for school going young persons (YP) (12-15 years) in Pakistan.
Proposed study is designed using the updated Medical Research Council (MRC) Framework for the development and evaluation of complex interventions.
Three public schools will be recruited from each of 10 cities across Pakistan: Karachi, Hyderabad, Nawabshah, Thatta, Lahore, Gujrat, Rawalpindi, Multan, Quetta, and Peshawar.
All the participants, regardless of their treatment arm, will be assessed at baseline, 1 month post-baseline and at 3-month.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Gap in understanding undermines government and public support for SC2-WGS, and other wide-scale genomic sequencing (Gut microbiome, Genome Wide Sequencing for Prenatal Detection, Tuberculosis Metagenomic sequencing, Nutrigenetics and Cancer Next Generation Sequencing) as a routine part of the pandemic response, especially in low- and middle-income countries. However, such gaps can be closed with systematic efforts to define and measure specific misperceptions, and subsequently design and use targeted messages and promotional materials. We propose here in the following specific aims to first determine the entire set of beliefs and emotions regarding SC2-WGS and other genomic sequencing (Gut microbiome, Genome Wide Sequencing for Prenatal Detection, Tuberculosis Metagenomic sequencing, Nutrigenetics and Cancer Next Generation Sequencing), then identify and measure limiting belief constructs, and then create social media and communication media to address and overcome limiting beliefs strategically. The goal is to increase public and policymaker support for SC2-WGS and other genomic sequencing (Gut microbiome, Genome Wide Sequencing for Prenatal Detection, Tuberculosis Metagenomic sequencing, Nutrigenetics and Cancer Next Generation Sequencing) resources and actions for pandemic control.
**Detailed Description:** Implementing WGS, it is advisable to involve a variety of relevant actors and to consider the opinions of various stakeholders, including those who are not professionals in the field. This might resolve the implementation problem that could occur if psychological and social dimensions or, in other words, not strictly scientific criteria are not adequately integrated in decision making concerning complex issues such as innovations in genetics. In most cases, the reaction towards genetic information corresponds with a specific personal view of how to handle medical information and thus amplifies already existing mental phenomena (fear, stress, worries, etc.), tendencies of self-improvement and self-care and curiosity and playfulness.38 In the Study from Lewis et al, investigated in this relation the specific personality traits of participants of the first implementations of WGS, who were characterized as optimistic and resilient. This is a phenomenon often found in the group of early adopters of new technologies in general as described in the dimension knowing as empowerment to act, for some people, the willingness to know is caused by an attitude of openness towards the unknown and the desire to open new scenarios that could activate new opportunities for research as well as for themselves. This perspective highly reflects the currently dominant societal goal of health prevention and the main health policy discourse and practice of precaution. People have different perceptions of WGS and its imaginable integration into our health care system or our daily lives, and various approaches to decision-making regarding the potential use of WGS could be observed.
There are suboptimal national resources, inadequate specimen sampling strategies, to optimize epidemiological and clinical inference. There is a gap in the meta-data to interpret SC2-WGS information and other genomic sequencing (Gut microbiome, Genome Wide Sequencing for Prenatal Detection, Tuberculosis Metagenomic sequencing, Nutrigenetics and Cancer Next Generation Sequencing) in a complete and rapid manner. This understanding gap can undermine broad-scale government and public support as a routine part of the pandemic response, especially in low- and middle-income countries.
Therefore an intervention is needed in the form of genomic sequencing education. Before the intervention stage, there will be taking survey data which will be collected using the themes from the FGD results and will focus on assessing public perceptions regarding SC2-WGS and other genomic sequencing. These themes will be formulated into short statements and answered by respondents using a Likert scale. The survey will involve 100-200 respondents via WhatsApp chat bot. Subjects will be asked to express their reactions to short statements on a 4-point Likert scale. The subject will also be asked to express his emotional reaction to the statement with a series of binary questions related to positive or negative feelings. The survey results will be analyzed quantitatively to see the total score and distribution of each statement.
The next stage in this research is to develop social media and communication media. At this stage we will formulate public messages and strategies to improve perceptions based on the survey results. The public message formulated will be useful for educating the public using various social media platforms.
The intervention stage will be carried out by distributing information regarding genome sequencing via bots. After the intervention is carried out, changes in perception will be assessed before and after the intervention through pre-test and post-test questionnaires
