Double-blind, randomized, single-center pilot study to assess the effectiveness of pregabalin (Lyrica) in the management of mucositis pain in head and neck cancer.
The well-established, consistent and precise phenotyping developed in the previous ARVC Registry (and published as the Modified Task Force Criteria), with a comprehensive primary genotyping approach, search for genetic modifiers, and biomarker analysis will fulfill the long-term goals of this proposal to identify the genetic basis of all forms of …
The research study is being conducted to determine the utility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in identifying inflammation of arteries supplying blood to the head, brain, and eyes, which may be useful in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of giant cell arteritis (GCA; temporal arteritis). Study participants are eligible if …
Both HIV infection and exposure to opioids, including intravenous heroin in people who inject drugs (PWIDs), are associated with systemic immune activation due to, at least partially, dysbiosis and increased microbial translocation from the gut. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) approaches based on the administration of Opioid Receptor (MOR) agonists (e.g. methadone) …
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used in the treatment of pain and inflammation. Mounting evidence indicates that rectal administration of NSAIDs is also effective in preventing pancreatitis following endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) by an unknown mechanism. Alterations in the salivary and fecal microbiome have been observed in patients with …
We plan to enroll up to 16 adult subjects in this study. We will enroll up to 8 patients with a diagnosis of probable idiopathic Parkinsons Disease (PD cohort) and up to 8 age and gender matched Healthy Controls (HC cohort). PET/CT imaging will be used to evaluate neuroinflammation in …
Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE You are being invited to participate in a research study because you have Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome. Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS) is a long term (chronic) rejection process that can occur in the transplanted lungs. Itacitinib works by blocking your body from producing …
While a number of factors are known to be associated with the development of trauma induced coagulopathy (TIC), inflammation, and multi-organ failure, we currently cannot predict which patients are at risk for developing these life-threatening conditions with any certainty. In this prospective observational study, we will investigate the many factors …
Although anti-retroviral therapy (ART) enhances life expectancy and overall quality of life (QoL), HIV-infected individuals are increasingly vulnerable to non-AIDS-related diseases including HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). Inflammation is a primary mechanism in the pathogenesis of HAND and tobacco use may further exacerbate inflammation. Conversely, nicotine alone has anti-inflammatory effects suggesting …
This is a 1 – 2 month study examining the extent of lung inflammation between e-cigarette smokers, cigarette smokers, and non-smokers using a new radio tracer, FNOS. FNOS is an experimental radio tracer used to look for inflammation in different parts of the body. The tracer that we will be …
