## Biomarkers in the Retina for Prognosticating Mental Health Treatments - **NCT ID**: NCT06363968 - **Study ID**: 1743326 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-02-12 - **Completion Date**: 2030-09-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: VA Puget Sound Health Care System ### Study Description Title: ERG as a potential biomarker of SSRI-responsive PTSD: A pilot studyPosttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects many individuals who experience a traumatic event. Previous studies suggest that there is a connection between the brain and the retina, and that the electroretinogram (ERG) may be a valuable biomarker to tell us more about signals in the brain that are related to mental health disorders like PTSD. The goal of this observational study is to examine the ERG waveform in veterans with PTSD before and after a single dose of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), sertraline. Sertraline is one of two FDA-approved medications for the treatment of PTSD. The main questions this pilot study aims to answer are:1. How does sertraline, an SSRI, influence the ERG waveform in veterans with PTSD?2. Is there a significant correlation between baseline ERG signals and the change in ERG following SSRI treatment?Participants will be asked to:* Undergo ERG recordings before and after a single dose of sertraline.* Provide relevant clinical information related to PTSD symptoms and treatment history.Following the initial study visits, participants will enter an optional open label phase of the study in which qualifying participants who initiate antidepressant treatment through routine clinical care will be invited back for a follow-up ERG recording. ### Conditions - PTSD - Posttraumatic Stress Disorder ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SINGLE_GROUP - **Primary Purpose**: DEVICE_FEASIBILITY ### Interventions - RETeval ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - ERG b-wave amplitude response to SSRI **Secondary Outcomes** - Total Clinician Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition; CAPS-5) score - Total PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) ### Location - **Facility**: VA Puget Sound Health Care System, Seattle, Washington, 98108, United States @@
## Assessing the Efficacy of a Hydrogen Peroxide Mouthwash for Oral Wound Healing, Oral Hygiene and Xerostomia Relief - **NCT ID**: NCT06363955 - **Study ID**: INTM-PMCF-UNIMOUTH - **Status**: COMPLETED - **Start Date**: 2023-04-25 - **Completion Date**: 2024-04-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: National and Kapodistrian University of Athens ### Study Description The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a hydrogen carbamide/peroxide mouthwash, named UNISEPT® MOUTHWASH, regarding oral wound healing, postoperative symptoms, xerostomia (dry mouth) and oral hygiene improvement. Study participants have reported dry mouth and are scheduled for a diagnostic biopsy of minor labial salivary glands to investigate Sjögren's Syndrome, following consultation with their rheumatologist. This is a standardized diagnostic procedure that leads to healing by primary intention (i.e. wound edges are closely re-approximated with sutures).Researchers are comparing this mouthwash with a placebo (a look-and-taste-alike substance that contains no active ingredients) to see if it is helpful with healing of wounds in the mouth and associated symptoms, improving dry mouth and/or oral hygiene. Participants randomly get the hydrogen carbamide/peroxide mouthwash or the placebo one to use for 14 days after the biopsy. The investigators will not know which one they are providing as the bottles will be identical.Oral wound healing, postoperative symptoms (such as pain, eating and speech difficulties), oral hygiene (dental plaque and gingival inflammation), improvement of dry mouth and quality of life are assessed during a 14-day period after the biopsy. Participants are required to visit the clinic three times, one for the initial consultation and the biopsy, one at 7 days and one at 14 days after the biopsy. They are asked to fill in some questionnaires, while certain procedures (such as measuring saliva) and assessments (like evaluating the dental plaque and gingival inflammation) take place. During the first week they, also, keep a diary of their symptoms, as instructed. ### Conditions - Wound Heal - Oral Dryness - Postoperative Pain - Sjogren's Syndrome - Biopsy Wound - Mouth; Wound - Mouth Dryness - Dental Plaque - Gingival Inflammation ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Hydrogen Carbamide/Peroxide Mouthwash - Placebo mouthwash ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Assessment of wound healing based on the modified Landry Healing Index on day 14 - Assessment of wound healing based on a modified version of the Early Wound Healing Score (EHS) on day 14 - Assessment of wound healing based on the modified Landry Healing Index on day 7 - Assessment of wound healing based on a modified version of the Early Wound Healing Score (EHS) on day 7 **Secondary Outcomes** - Postoperative symptoms (pain, eating and speech difficulty) during the first week (at home) - Postoperative symptoms (pain, eating and speech difficulty) on day 7 - Postoperative symptoms (pain, eating and speech difficulty) on day 14 - Wound healing based on the incision/wound length - Subjective oral dryness symptoms (8-item VAS questionnaire) - Observed (objective) signs of oral dryness - Change in Unstimulated Saliva Flow Rate - Oral Hygiene - Dental Plaque: Full-Mouth Plaque Index - Oral Hygiene - Gingival Inflammation: Full Mouth Gingival Index - Oral Health Related Quality of Life - Assessment of swelling in the biopsy area ### Location - **Facility**: Department of Oral Medicine & Pathology and Hospital Dentistry, School of Dentistry, National and kapodistrian University of Athens, Athens, Attiki, 11527, Greece @@

## Reducing Skin Surface pH During Skin Occlusion: Changes to Skin Microbiome and Skin Parameters - **NCT ID**: NCT06363786 - **Study ID**: GOOSEBERRY - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-04-15 - **Completion Date**: 2024-09-30 - **Lead Sponsor**: Essity Hygiene and Health AB ### Study Description The main aim of this exploratory research study is to investigate how exposure to a material with low pH affects the skin microbiome and skin parameters. This investigation involves an experimental setup in which application of test patches with lowered pH levels or control patches without lowered pH are used. The test patches are applied on healthy adult volunteers. About 20 subjects are planned for the study. The skin microbiome preservation and diversity will be addressed employing Molecular Sequencing and qPCR. In addition, skin pH, composition and hydration will be measured with various methods, e.g., AquaFlux, Moisture Meter, TEWL and Confocal Raman spectroscopy. The study will span three consecutive days in total. Each participant will be provided with four patches on each forearm: two patches will be applied to each dorsal forearm and two on each volar forearm. The first day will be for study inclusion and application of pathces. In day two the patches will be changed and on day three measurements for pH, TEWL, skin hydration, Raman and tape stripping will be conducted and sampling for Molecular Sequencing and qPCR measurements will be done. There is no formal hypothesis in the study but our idea is that utilizing patches with a lower pH could maintain the diversity and richness of the natural skin microbiome while retaining and even enhancing key skin barrier parameters.

## The Medically Reproducing Bariatric Surgery (MRB) II Study - **NCT ID**: NCT06363747 - **Study ID**: 123456 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-06-03 - **Completion Date**: 2025-06-03 - **Lead Sponsor**: Durham VA Medical Center ### Study Description Roux-en-Y (RYGB) gastric bypass reduces the size and capacity of the stomach and bypasses a portion of the small intestine which leads to decreased food intake and higher levels of a gut hormone called GLP-1 (glucagon-like-peptide-1). These changes lead to weight loss, improved blood sugars and often remission of type 2 diabetes but most patients do not qualify or want surgery. The investigators are searching for ways to make the beneficial effects of RYGB available to most type 2 diabetes patients rather than a select few that undergo RYGB.The investigators believe that parts of RYGB can be medically reproduced through a combination of diet and medicine. Once weekly injectable GLP-1 medicine that leads to weight loss and improved blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes are now FDA approved. Optifast is a medically supervised diet that safely reduces calorie intake to 800 calories per day for three months by replacing normal meals with specially prepared bars and shakes which leads to weight loss and improved blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes. Normal meals are then gradually reintroduced over 6 weeks and the bars/shakes are stopped. The investigators hypothesize that Optifast (diet) + once weekly GLP-1 will lead to weight loss and improvement in blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes similar to what is seen after RYGB. ### Conditions - Type 2 Diabetes - Obesity ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Very Low Calorie Diet ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Glycemic Control **Secondary Outcomes** - Weight lost - Medication Intensity - Health Related Quality of Life ### Location - **Facility**: Greenville VA Health Care Center, Greenville, North Carolina, 27834, United States @@

## Lower Limb Arthroplasty: Effects of a Tele Prehabilitation Program With Indirect Electrostimulation. - **NCT ID**: NCT06363643 - **Study ID**: Prehab01 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-04-22 - **Completion Date**: 2024-07-26 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of Pavia ### Study Description Preoperative fitness is known to predict postoperative outcomes following lower limb arthroplasty, but many patients, especially the most fragile, arrive at surgery with reduced mobility and functional capacity.Prehabilitation (Prehab) encompasses a series of interventions that are intended to help patients improve their physical state and psychological well-being pre-intervention to reduce the days of hospitalization and the number of post-operative complications. Patients who participate in Prehab require less postoperative care and consequently have less impact on the cost of the healthcare system. However, adherence to a face-to-face program is usually poor and presents both organizational and psychophysical barriers. In the last years, telerehabilitation has proven to be a viable alternative to face-to-face treatment and has already been adopted for the Prehab. Electrostimulation (ESM) is regularly used successfully in clinical settings for the recovery of muscle tone in patients with orthopedic pathologies. In addition, it has already been used for Prehab, showing an increase in muscle strength and a decrease in postoperative hospital stay following knee arthroplasty. Also Exercise offers benefits in the treatment of orthopedic patients because improve: strength, cardiovascular fitness, functional capacities and quality of life. Therefore, in a group of patients who are candidates for elective lower limb arthroplasty surgery, it was decided to evaluate the effects of a Tele Prehab program, based on the ESM, and compare them with those of an Tele Prehab exercise program, equal in dose and duration. The proposal differs from those present in the literature for complete administration in telerehabilitation, including evaluations. ### Conditions - Osteo Arthritis Knee and Hip - Lower Limb Arthroplasty ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - ELECTROSTIMULATION (ES) - EXERCISE (C) ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Change from baseline in functional capacities on 30 Seconds Chair Stand Test (30CST) at week 4 **Secondary Outcomes** - Change from baseline in functional capacities on Timed Up and Go test (TUG) at week 4. ### Location - **Facility**: "Città di Pavia Healthcare Institute", Pavia, N/A, 27100, Italy @@

## The Efficacy of Aescin in Combination With MPFF in the Early Control of Bleeding From Acute Internal Hemorrhoids, A Randomized Controlled Trial - **NCT ID**: NCT06363513 - **Study ID**: SUR2567-0150 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-04 - **Completion Date**: 2024-05 - **Lead Sponsor**: Chiang Mai University ### Study Description Hemorrhoidal disease, characterized by symptomatic enlargement and distal displacement of anal cushions, has been a subject of recognition and management for centuries. The etymology of "hemorrhoid" is traced back to the Greek words haima (blood) and rhoos (flow). Prevalent in over 20% of the population across various life stages, this anorectal condition impacts both genders. The multifaceted development of the disease incorporates theories encompassing abnormal dilation of hemorrhoidal plexuses, distension of arteriovenous anastomoses, prolapse of anal pads, and a myriad of genetic, anatomical, dietary, and lifestyle factors. Manifestations range from venous distension to bleeding and thrombosis, with classification based on location (internal/external/combined) and degree of prolapse (grade 1-4).Upon comprehensive history-taking and examinations, including digital rectal and proctoscope assessments, a definitive diagnosis is established, leading to the treatment phase. Although outpatient procedures demonstrate efficacy, patients may persist with pain and discomfort. Medical intervention assumes significance for stages 1 and 2, incorporating approaches such as rubber-band ligation, injection sclerotherapy, and dietary modifications. Micronized Purified Flavonoid Fraction (MPFF), integral to hemorrhoid treatment, has been scrutinized for its ability to mitigate pathogenic processes culminating in acute bleeding. The stagnation of blood in vascular plexuses prompts an inflammatory response, activating white cells and increasing vessel wall permeability. MPFF's flavonoid compounds are posited to alleviate bleeding by augmenting venous tone, reducing stasis, inhibiting inflammatory mediators, and enhancing lymphatic drainage\[8\]. Multiple trials substantiate MPFF's efficacy in ceasing bleeding, alleviating symptoms, and preventing hemorrhoid relapse.Aescin, a saponin mixture found in Aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut). The primary active component, β-aescin, contributes to the plant's medicinal attributes. Experimental investigations in animal models underscore its anti-edematous, anti-inflammatory, and venotonic properties, attributed to molecular mechanisms facilitating ion entry into channels and elevating venous tension. While the therapeutic benefits of aescin for hemorrhoids are acknowledged, the absence of randomized control trials impedes the conclusive validation of its efficacy. In the realm of diverse treatment options, this proposed randomized controlled trial aims to assess the comparative effectiveness of combining aescin with MPFF versus MPFF alone in managing hemorrhoid-related symptoms. The study aspires to furnish valuable insights for refining therapeutic strategies in the management of hemorrhoids and enhancing patient outcomes. ### Conditions - Anorectal Disorder ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Aescin in Horse Chestnut - Flavonoid ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Cessation of bleeding **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: Maharaj Chiang Mai hospital, Chiangmai, Maung, 50200, Thailand @@
## Characterization of HIV-1 Reservoirs in HIV-1 Non-B Infected Adolescents on ART in Cameroon - **NCT ID**: NCT06363500 - **Study ID**: ChantalIRCB - **Status**: COMPLETED - **Start Date**: 2021-11-01 - **Completion Date**: 2023-11-30 - **Lead Sponsor**: Chantal Biya International Reference Centre for Research on Prevention and Management of HIV/AIDS ### Study Description Background: Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) can bring HIV-1 in blood plasma to level undetectable by standard tests and allow a near-normal life expectancy for HIV-infected individuals. Unfortunately, cART is not curative, as within a few weeks of treatment cessation, HIV viremia in most patients rebounds except for rare elite or post-treatment controllers of viremia. The primary source of this rebound is the highly stable reservoir of latent yet replication-competent HIV-1 proviruses integrated into the genomic DNA of resting memory CD4+ T cells. To achieve a cure for HIV, understanding the cell reservoir environment is of paramount importance. The size and nature of viral reservoir might vary per timing of therapy, therapeutic response, ART duration, and immune response. Mechanisms of reservoir maintenance generally depend on levels/type of immune recognition, dynamics of viral persistence are different between pediatric and adult populations, owing to, but not limited to, types/numbers of target cells, efficiency in clearing HIV-infected cells, plasma viremia and HIV drug resistance patterns. This difference could become more evident as these children grow toward adolescence (increasing population due to ART benefits), a stage during which suboptimal adherence is frequent, leading to viral rebound and archiving of resistant patterns.Objectives: We plan to conduct a cross sectional study with the aim to characterize HIV reservoirs and their variability according to virological and immunological profiles of non-B HIV-1 vertically infected adolescents receiving antiretroviral therapy. Specifically, we shall (1) evaluate the size of HIV reservoir; (2) Determine HIV-1 genetic variability and drug resistance in cellular reservoirs; (3) Characterize immune activation/inflammation of HIV infected adolescents.Methods: We plan to conduct an observational and comparative study involving 90 HIV-1 non-B infected adolescents aged 10-19 years vertically infected, have been on ART for at least 12 months selected from a cohort of the ongoing EDCTP-READY study; intravenous blood will be collected for CD4/CD8 count, plasmatic viral load, PBMCs isolation, immune activation/inflammatory markers, genotyping and Viral reservoir quantification. We will as well recruit a group of 30 HIV-negative adolescents as control for immunological profiling.Overall impact: Our findings will help in advancing knowledge on HIV reservoir, in terms of size and genetic variability in adolescents living with HIV (ADLHIV). Such evidence will also help in understanding the effects of ART timing and duration on the size of reservoirs among ADLHIV, a unique population from whom findings generated will largely contribute in designing functional cure strategies in this vulnerable population. ### Conditions - Characterization of HIV Reservoirs in Adolescents ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - non applicable ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Archived HIV drug resistance mutations **Secondary Outcomes** - HIV-1 reservoirs measurement ### Location - **Facility**: Chantal Biya International Reference Centre, Yaounde, Centre, 99999, Cameroon @@

## Cisternostomy Vs Decompressive Craniectomy for Severe Traumatic Brain Injury - **NCT ID**: NCT06363474 - **Study ID**: UHS 5532 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-05-01 - **Completion Date**: 2025-05-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of Health Sciences Lahore ### Study Description The objective of this clinical study is to compare the outcomes of two neurosurgical interventions, Cisternostomy and Decompressive Craniectomy (DC), for the management of severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), assessed using the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). Severe TBI presents challenges in managing intracranial pressure (ICP) and cerebral perfusion, often requiring surgical intervention. DC involves the removal of a section of the skull to reduce ICP, while Cisternostomy, a technique rooted in microsurgery, aims to alleviate brain edema and lower ICP by creating additional space for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation.This prospective study will be conducted at the Department of Neurosurgery, Punjab Institute of Neurosciences, Lahore. Patients meeting inclusion criteria will be randomized into Group A (DC) and Group B (Cisternostomy) following brain CT scans. Clinical evaluation will include regular follow-ups for 6 months post-surgery, recording data on GOS, duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU, and hospital stays. Analysis will be performed using SPSS 24, comparing outcomes between groups using Chi-square test and t-test. A significance level of p≤0.05 will be applied.It is hypothesized that Cisternostomy, as an adjunct to traditional TBI management, will effectively reduce ICP, resulting in improved GOS and reduced complications postoperatively, including decreased duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay, with sustained improvement observed at 6 months ### Conditions - Severe Traumatic Brain Injury ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NON_RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Decompressive Craniectomy - Cisternostomy ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - comparison of patient outcomes between the two intervention groups (Decompressive Craniectomy and Cisternostomy) in terms of the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: N/A, N/A, N/A, N/A, N/A @@

## Validation of the French ATI Scale and Predisposition to Use Technological Tools in Rehabilitation. - **NCT ID**: NCT06363279 - **Study ID**: 2024/24JAN/044 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-04-04 - **Completion Date**: 2024-10 - **Lead Sponsor**: Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain ### Study Description Aim of the study: The first aim of this study is to validate the translation of the Affinity for Technology Interaction (ATI) questionnaire. This questionnaire was developed in English by Franke, Attig and Wessel in 2019. It consists of 9 items and was developed to assess a person's tendency to actively engage in technological interaction, or the ease with which a person uses technological tools. Currently, the questionnaire has been translated into French by our research team according to good practice recommendations (Guillemin, Bombardier and Beaton, 1993; Tsang et al., 2017), but this French version has not yet been validated. To validate the translation of a questionnaire, it is necessary to have it completed by a large number of subjects from the population of interest. In neurorehabilitation, measuring this affinity will make it possible to better identify patients who are more likely to adhere to tele-rehabilitation and thus direct them towards this type of treatment as a complement to conventional rehabilitation.The second objective is to determine the extent to which the general population is prepared to use technological tools as part of their rehabilitation. The aim is to gain a better understanding of the profile of people who could potentially benefit from tele-rehabilitation. Accessibility to the technologies, their expectations and barriers will also be explored as part of this study. ### Conditions - Stroke ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SINGLE_GROUP - **Primary Purpose**: OTHER ### Interventions - Conducting questionnaires ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - ATI - affinity technology interaction scale **Secondary Outcomes** - Scale for assessing a person's readiness to use technological tools as part of their rehabilitation ### Location - **Facility**: Clinique Universitaires Saint-Luc, Brussel, Woluwé-Saint-Lambert, 1200, Belgium @@
## A SMART Design to Optimize the Delivery of TEMPO for Men With Prostate Cancer and Their Caregivers - **NCT ID**: NCT06363266 - **Study ID**: 190211_1 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-09-01 - **Completion Date**: 2028-08-31 - **Lead Sponsor**: St. Mary's Research Center, Canada ### Study Description Men with prostate cancer and their family caregivers face many physical and emotional challenges from the cancer itself and its treatment(s), which often lead to high anxiety. The pandemic has highlighted the importance of protecting our physical and mental health, and the complex responsibilities that caregivers have in supporting their loved ones. To improve the health of men with prostate cancer and of their caregivers, the research team developed TEMPO: a self-directed Tailored, wEb-based, psychosocial and physical activity self-Management PrOgram. TEMPO was developed with men with prostate cancer and their caregivers over the past 8 years. It also combines the investigators' research conducted over the past decade on providing the best support to those affected by cancer. Because the cancer care workforce is already overstretched, the research team designed TEMPO to be used without guidance from a health care professional. TEMPO is one-of-a kind in its support of both patients and caregivers, and the integration of coping skills training on a wide range of cancer challenges along with a home-based exercise program. Patients and caregivers who have used TEMPO said they improved their communication, learned new skills to cope with both physical and emotional challenges of cancer, and increased their physical activity. The present project builds on this work to further evaluate the cost and impact of TEMPO on men's and caregivers' health. Men with prostate cancer and their caregivers will be assigned by chance to one of two groups a) TEMPO or b) monitor their anxiety for 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, patients' and caregivers' needing more support will be identified based on an assessment of their anxiety level. For those already using TEMPO and needing more support, non-health care professional guidance might be offered. All those in the monitoring group needing more support will now have access to TEMPO. All participants complete surveys to determine whether TEMPO led to improved health outcomes. ### Conditions - Cancer of the Prostate - Anxiety ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: SEQUENTIAL - **Primary Purpose**: SUPPORTIVE_CARE ### Interventions - TEMPO - Active Monitoring dyads' anxiety ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - HADS-Anxiety **Secondary Outcomes** - TEMPO's key mechanisms of action ### Location - **Facility**: St. Mary's Research Centre, Montreal, Quebec, H3T1M5, Canada @@

## PREMs In Vascular SurgERy Enhancement Study - **NCT ID**: NCT06363175 - **Study ID**: 8737 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-06-01 - **Completion Date**: 2026-06-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: Cardiff and Vale University Health Board ### Study Description THE PROBLEM:Patient Reported Experience Measures (PREMs) ask patients about their healthcare service experience. It gives them a voice to share their views. PREMs allow healthcare providers (HCPs) to see where care is good, and where they could improve. Vascular surgery is a surgical speciality looking after people's blood vessels (arteries and veins).There is no PREM available for vascular patients. The research team want to create a PREM for this patient group.WHY IT IS IMPORTANT:A PREM allows HCPs to record and understand patients' experiences of their treatment. It gives patients a way to provide feedback on their healthcare experience. PREMs can help HCPs make changes to patients' care, identifying areas of good practice and areas for improvement. The Welsh Government is keen to support the use of PREMs.AIMS:To develop a PREM specific to vascular surgery patients.RESEARCH PLAN:The research team will summarise the literature about PREMs in surgery. The research team will then run focus groups and interviews with patients and staff to create a 'draft' PREM for vascular patients in Wales. The 'draft' PREM will be translated into Welsh.In the second phase, a larger number of vascular patients (100-300 depending on how long the 'draft' PREM is) from hospitals across Wales will complete the questionnaire. Statistical tests will look at the results to see if the questionnaire works well to capture patients' experiences. Based on these results, small changes will be made to make the 'draft' PREM better. This will make sure the 'final PREM' is ready for widespread use in Wales and beyond.PATIENT AND PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT:The patients' experience team at CAVUHB has reviewed our patients' materials. Our research team includes PPI co-applicants (DC and AH). DC a double amputee who has had many vascular operations. DC has experience raising awareness about vascular disease through public forums like the Limbless Association Charity and BBC Radio Wales. AH has issues with her leg due to smoking and had a keyhole operation to help with that. She had some problems after the procedure This is her first time as a PPI representative. DC and AH supported our research design and will be steering group members. Also, our research focuses on giving patients a voice and will include patients across Wales. A diverse group of patients will be involved across all stages of the PREM development. ### Conditions - Vascular Diseases - Patient Empowerment - Patient Satisfaction - Patient Engagement - Surgery ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Degree of Validity of the PREM - Degree of Reliability of the PREM - Degree of Responsiveness of the PREM - Degree of Feasibility of implementing the PREM in clinical practice **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: Southeast Wales Vascular Network-Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, Cardiff, Wales, N/A, United Kingdom @@

## An Observational Study to Learn More About Vericiguat Treatment Patterns and Its Safety in People With Chronic Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction in Routine Medical Care in the United States - **NCT ID**: NCT06363110 - **Study ID**: 22724 - **Status**: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-04-10 - **Completion Date**: 2024-06-30 - **Lead Sponsor**: Bayer ### Study Description This is an observational study in which data already collected from people with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) are studied.In observational studies, only observations are made, without participants receiving any advice or any changes to healthcare.Chronic HFrEF is a long-term condition in which the heart becomes weak and cannot pump enough blood to the rest of the body with each heartbeat. This leads to a reduced supply of oxygen, which the body requires to function properly.The study treatment, vericiguat, works by increasing the activity of an enzyme called soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), which relaxes the blood vessels and allows more blood to flow. As a result, the heart can pump better.It is already approved for doctors to prescribe to people with chronic HFrEF in the United States (US) who are stabilized after a recent "decompensation event". The treatment with vericiguat starts at a low dose, which should be increased gradually to the target dose based on how a patient tolerates the treatment.The participants in this study are already receiving treatment with vericiguat as part of their regular care from their doctors.The main purpose of the study is to learn more about the dosage pattern of vericiguat in people with chronic HFrEF in the US. To do this, researchers will collect the following information for 3 months after participants' first dose of vericiguat:* starting dose of vericiguat* daily changes in dosage pattern* time taken to reach the target dose* number and percentage of participants:* with specific changes in dosage pattern* reaching the target dose of vericiguatThey will also collect information on how often low blood pressure or fainting occurs, which are well known events in people with chronic HFrEF.The data will come from the participants' information stored in a database called the HealthVerity HF dataset. Data collected will be from people with chronic HFrEF who started taking vericiguat between January 2021 and April 2023.Researchers will only look at the health records of participants in the US.Researchers will track participants' data and will collect information for a maximum of 6 months before and 3 months after their first dose of vericiguat.In this study, only available data from routine care are collected. No visits or tests are required as part of this study. ### Conditions - Chronic Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - Vericiguat (Verquvo, BAY1021189) ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Number of patients having vericiguat daily dose of 2.5 mg, 5 mg and 10 mg at index date - Number of patients having daily dose of 10 mg/day within the 90 days after vericiguat initiation - Days from index date to first occurrence of 10 mg/day dose - Number of patients who received a dose of 2.5 mg/day, 5 mg/day and 10 mg/day, or discontinued drug therapy each day over the 90-day follow-up period - Number of patients having any Vericiguat up-titration within the 90 days after vericiguat initiation - Number of patients having specific titration scenarios within the 90 days after vericiguat initiation **Secondary Outcomes** - Number of patients having hypotension or syncope in the entire 90 days after vericiguat initiation and by 30 days intervals ### Location - **Facility**: Bayer, Whippany, New Jersey, 07981, United States @@
## Urinary Uromodulin, Dietary Sodium Intake and Ambulatory Blood Pressure in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease - **NCT ID**: NCT06363097 - **Study ID**: ΔΔ5032 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-09-04 - **Completion Date**: 2025-06 - **Lead Sponsor**: Aristotle University Of Thessaloniki ### Study Description In chronic kidney disease (CKD), hypertension is characterized by the phenomenon of sodium-sensitivity, i.e., the disproportionate increase in blood pressure (BP) due to an increase in dietary sodium consumption to maintain homeostasis through urinary sodium excretion. Impaired renal circulation, blunt suppression of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, sympathetic nervous system overactivity, paradoxically reduced levels of atrial natriuretic peptide and hyperinsulinemia represent the main pathophysiologic mechanisms. Accumulated evidence has suggested that uromodulin plays a central role in the development of sodium-sensitive hypertension. Uromodulin is a kidney-specific glycoprotein which is exclusively produced by the epithelial cells lining the thick ascending limb and early distal convoluted tubule. It is currently recognized as a multifaceted player in kidney physiology and disease, with discrete roles for intracellular, urinary, interstitial and serum uromodulin. Among these, urinary uromodulin modulates renal sodium handling through regulating tubular transporters that reabsorb sodium and are targeted by diuretics, i.e., the loop diuretic-sensitive Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransporter type 2 (NKCC2) and the thiazide-sensitive Na+/Cl- cotransporter (NCC). Given these roles, the contribution of uromodulin to sodium-sensitive hypertension has been proposed. In preclinical models, uromodulin deficiency causes decreased BP that is resistant to dietary salt, while uromodulin overexpression causes hypertension due to increased tubular sodium reabsorption that is responsive to furosemide. Genetic human studies have identified robust associations of specific UMOD gene variants with sodium sensitivity and incident hypertension risk, while comprehensive Mendelian randomization studies have affirmed these associations by highlighting the causal relationship between UMOD variants, urinary uromodulin levels and hypertension. Furthermore, clinical studies in both healthy individuals and hypertensive patients have indicated a link between sodium sensitivity and uromodulin, directly affecting mean BP levels and BP response to salt intake. With regards to CKD population, solid data on the link of uromodulin with sodium sensitivity are currently missing from the literature. There is only a pediatric study in the setting of CKD (stages 2-3), which failed to show an association between urinary uromodulin levels indexed to urinary creatinine (UMOD/uCr) and either 24-hour or office BP; however, this study has several limitations, and its results should be interpreted with caution. To best of our knowledge, there is no study up to date investigating the effect of dietary sodium intake on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure depending on urinary uromodulin levels in adult CKD patients. ### Conditions - Chronic Kidney Disease - Hypertension ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Effect of urinary uromodulin levels on the relationship between 24-hour urinary sodium excretion and 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure. - Effect of urinary uromodulin levels on the relationship between 24-hour urinary sodium excretion and 24-hour ambulatory diastolic blood pressure. **Secondary Outcomes** - Effect of urinary uromodulin levels on the relationship between nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion and 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure. - Effect of urinary uromodulin levels on the relationship between nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion and 24-hour ambulatory diastolic blood pressure. - Effect of urinary uromodulin levels on the relationship between urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio and 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure. - Effect of urinary uromodulin levels on the relationship between urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio and 24-hour ambulatory diastolic blood pressure. - The difference in 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP between patients with high and low urinary uromodulin excretion. - The difference in 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP standard deviation (SD) between patients with high and low urinary uromodulin excretion. - The difference in 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP weighted SD (wSD) between patients with high and low urinary uromodulin excretion. - The difference in 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP coefficient of variation (CV) between patients with high and low urinary uromodulin excretion. - The difference in 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP average real variability (ARV) between patients with high and low urinary uromodulin excretion. - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP standard deviation (SD). - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP weighted SD (wSD). - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP coefficient of variation (CV). - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP average real variability (ARV). - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP standard deviation (SD). - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP weighted SD (wSD). - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP coefficient of variation (CV). - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP average real variability (ARV). - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP standard deviation (SD). - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP weighted SD (wSD). - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP coefficient of variation (CV). - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on 24-hour ambulatory brachial SBP/DBP average real variability (ARV). - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on hydration status (US-B lines). - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on hydration status (US-B lines). - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on hydration status (US-B lines). - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on MMSE score. - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on MMSE score. - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on MMSE score. - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on PSQI score. - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on PSQI score. - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on PSQI score. - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on ESS score. - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on ESS score. - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on ESS score. - Effect of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion on nocturnal urinations. - Effect of nighttime/daytime ratio of urinary sodium excretion on nocturnal urinations. - Effect of urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na+/K+) ratio on nocturnal urinations. ### Location - **Facility**: 1st Department of Nephrology, Thessaloníki, Central Macedonia, 54642, Greece @@

## Electrical Stimulation Cycling Training Effects on SCA - **NCT ID**: NCT06363058 - **Study ID**: 201902166B0 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2022-04-08 - **Completion Date**: 2025-07-31 - **Lead Sponsor**: Chang Gung University ### Study Description To focuses on the challenges faced by individuals with spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), highlighting the major clinical sign of ataxia that affects their stability and ability to perform daily activities, thereby impacting their quality of life. It outlines the concept of neural plasticity, which is the brain's ability to adapt through changes in excitability, and notes that these changes are more enduring in the central nervous system (CNS) than in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). This adaptability, crucial for memory and motor learning, is compromised in SCA patients due to impaired brain areas and pathways. The summary further delves into motor learning, distinguishing between explicit and implicit learning, and points out that SCA patients exhibit deficiencies in procedural learning and cerebellar function. It also introduces the concept of priming as a preparatory mechanism that can enhance the effectiveness of physical therapy by modifying subsequent responses to stimuli. The document suggests that cycling, as an aerobic exercise, could prime the brain for improved blood flow and oxygenation, thereby supporting synaptic plasticity and the release of beneficial neurotrophic factors. Finally, the project aims to deepen the understanding of motor performance and learning mechanisms in SCA patients and apply these insights to clinical rehabilitation strategies. ### Conditions - Spinocerebellar Ataxia (SCA) ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NON_RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: CROSSOVER - **Primary Purpose**: OTHER ### Interventions - ES Cycling Training ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Overall Response Time - Overall Error Rate - Motor Evoked Potentials (MEPs) - Intracortical Facilitation (ICF) - Intracortical Inhibition (ICI) - Total Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) Score - Total Berg Balance Scale (BBS) Score - Total Time to Complete the Time Up and Go test (TUG test) - Walking Speed - Step Length - Step Time **Secondary Outcomes** - Double Support Time - Single Support Time - Swing Time - Stance Time - Cadence ### Location - **Facility**: Chang Gung University, Taoyuan, N/A, 333, Taiwan @@

## Elastography in Predicting Renal Outcome - **NCT ID**: NCT06363032 - **Study ID**: 202110104RINB - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2021-12-27 - **Completion Date**: 2025-12-31 - **Lead Sponsor**: National Taiwan University Hospital ### Study Description There are two types of elastography: strain elastography assesses the degree of strain when applying a given amount of force to the skin. Shear-wave elastography assesses the velocity of shear wave propagation within the target lesion. A part of the tissue is deformed by a "push pulse", the velocity of the shear waves propagating within the tissue is detected, and the stiffness of the tissue is assessed based on the detected shear velocity. Shear-wave elastography has been intensively studied in thyroid, breast, liver, cervical lymph nodes, and musculoskeletal diseases with promising result.Transthoracic shear-wave ultrasound is also used for the prediction of lung malignancy.In progressive renal disease, renal function decline correlates with the extent of interstitial fibrosis, irrespective of the original pathology. Experience and research in using shear-wave elastography to study the stiffness of renal parenchyma and renal fibrosis are scanty. The investigators will conduct a prospective observational study. This study aims to provide the information of tissue elasticity in different etiologies of renal diseases and to validate the predictive value of shear-wave elastography in predicting renal function and renal fibrosis.By assuming a power of 0.8, a two-side p value of 0.05, a ratio of 0.2 (sample sizes in negative/positive groups) to detect the difference between area under ROC curve and null hypothesis value (0.8 and 0.7), a target sample of 273 (with a 5% cushion, 260\~290) patients is required. ### Conditions - Kidney Disease ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - elastography ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - collect medical record of blood urea nitrogen and Creatinine **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei, N/A, N/A, Taiwan @@

## The Relationship Between Muscle Oxygenation and Spasticity in Hemiparetic Stroke Patients - **NCT ID**: NCT06362954 - **Study ID**: AnkaraMedipolU-FTR-SS-01 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-12-31 - **Completion Date**: 2024-06-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: Ankara Medipol University ### Study Description Conditions such as hemiparesis, sensory and motor impairment, perceptual impairment, cognitive impairment, aphasia, and dysphagia may be observed after stroke. Motor impairment after stroke may occur due to damage to any part of the brain related to motor control. There is much clinical evidence that damage to different parts of the sensorimotor cortex in humans affects other aspects of motor function. Loss of strength, spasticity, limb apraxia, loss of voluntary movements, Babinski sign, and motor neglect are typical motor deficits following a cortical lesion (upper motor neuron lesion). Post-stroke spasticity can be seen in 19% to 92% of stroke survivors. Post-stroke hemiparesis is a significant cause of morbidity and disability, along with abnormal muscle tone. It has also been recognized that post-stroke hemiparesis may occur without spasticity. Spasticity seen after stroke causes loss of movement control, painful spasms, abnormal posture, increased muscle tone, and a general decrease in muscle function, and may affect limb blood flow. Studies in the literature show that spasticity can affect limb blood flow.This study aims to investigate the relationship between muscle oxygenation and spasticity in post-stroke hemiparetic patients based on the idea that oxygenation may be insufficient as a result of restriction of blood flow on the affected side due to spasticity in stroke patients. ### Conditions - Stroke - Hemiparesis;Poststroke/CVA - Spasticity as Sequela of Stroke ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - Assessment ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Plantar Flexors Muscle Oxygenation **Secondary Outcomes** - Spasticity - Motor Function - 6-Minute Walk Test - Stair Climbing Test - Adipose tissue thickness ### Location - **Facility**: Gazi University, Faculty of Health, Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, Ankara, Çankaya, N/A, Turkey @@

## Effect of Support for Low-Income Mothers of Preterm Infants - **NCT ID**: NCT06362798 - **Study ID**: IRB22-0729 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-05-01 - **Completion Date**: 2028-12-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) ### Study Description Preterm birth is a leading cause of childhood mortality and developmental disabilities. Socioeconomic disparities in the incidence of preterm birth and morbidities, mortality, and quality of care for preterm infants persist. An important predictor of the long-term consequences of preterm birth is maternal presence during the prolonged infant hospitalization (weeks to months) in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Mothers who visit the NICU can pump breast milk, directly breastfeed and engage in skin-to-skin care, which facilitates breast milk production and promotes infant physiologic stability and neurodevelopment. Low-income mothers face significant barriers to frequent NICU visits, including financial burdens and the psychological impact of financial stress, which hinder their participation in caregiving activities. The investigators will conduct an randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the effectiveness of financial transfers among 420 Medicaid - eligible mothers with infants 24 - 33 weeks' gestation in four level 3 NICUs: Boston Medical Center (BMC) in Boston, Massachusetts, UMass Memorial Medical Center (UMass) in Worcester, Massachusetts, Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, Massachusetts, and Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. Mothers in the intervention arm will receive usual care enhanced with weekly financial transfers and will be informed that these transfers are meant to help them spend more time with their infant in the NICU vs. a control arm (usual care). The primary hypothesis is that financial transfers can enable economically disadvantaged mothers to visit the NICU, reduce the negative psychological impacts of financial distress, and increase maternal caregiving behaviors associated with positive preterm infant health and development. ### Conditions - Preterm Birth - Low; Birthweight, Extremely (999 Grams or Less) ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: OTHER ### Interventions - Financial Transfers ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Provision of breast milk (proportion) - Provision of skin-to-skin care **Secondary Outcomes** - Duration of mother's milk expression - Gestational weight-for-age - Gestational length-for-age z-score - Gestational head circumference - Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) - Late-onset bacterial or fungal sepsis (LOS) - NICU Visitation - Postpartum Bonding - Provision of breast milk (volume) - Breastfeeding episode - Maternal physical health - Maternal mental health (anxiety) - Maternal mental health (depression) - Reaction Time Modified Flanker Task - Accuracy Performance Modified Flanker Task - Reaction Time Psychomotor Vigilance Task - Accuracy Psychomotor Vigilance Task - Happiness - Life satisfaction - Sleep - Routine postpartum care - Financial distress - Financial hardship - Food insecurity - Housing instability - Housing insecurity - Transportation insecurity - Length of stay - Mother readmission between 4-8 weeks post-discharge - Baby readmission between 4-8 weeks post-discharge - Mother emergency department visit between 4-8 weeks post-discharge - Baby emergency department visit between 4-8 weeks post-discharge - Sleep position - Sleep location - Breastfeeding expression continuation - Skin-to-skin care knowledge - Breastfeeding knowledge - Perception of hospital experience ### Location - **Facility**: Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, 30322, United States @@
