NCT03622749
The investigators are conducting this research study to better understand how individuals with bipolar disorder regulate their emotions, and if the study can use a technique called "transcranial magnetic stimulation" or TMS to help improve emotion regulation for individuals with bipolar disorder.
NCT07442045
This multicenter retrospective cohort study evaluates the real-world effectiveness and safety of upadacitinib used alone or in combination with vedolizumab in adult patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis (UC). UC is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that often requires long-term management, and monotherapy may reach a therapeutic ceiling in clinical practice. Combination therapy with upadacitinib, a rapid-acting oral JAK inhibitor, and vedolizumab, a gut-selective biologic, may provide complementary benefits. The study uses existing clinical and laboratory data from six Chinese IBD centers to compare short-term outcomes, including clinical remission, clinical response, endoscopic remission, normalization of C-reactive protein, and occurrence of adverse events during the 8-week induction period. This study reflects routine clinical practice and aims to provide real-world evidence to support treatment decisions in patients with moderate-to-severe UC.
NCT06481670
This study is a prospective randomized clinical controlled trial testing the effects of pre-operative \>50 g pre-operative carbohydrate fluids (apple juice) on a patient's post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) incidence and intensity. Optimizing fluid therapy in the peri-operative setting has been proven to improve patient outcomes and reduce complications and length of hospital stay. Based on practice guidelines under the American Society of Anesthesiologists, pre-operative hydration with complex carbohydrate drinks is safe and should be encouraged as it helps with improving metabolism to an anabolic state, decreases insulin resistance, reduces anxiety, and reduces PONV. While pre-operative carbohydrate (CHO) fluids have already been studied and adopted by other surgical specialities (Vascular, General Surgery, Orthopaedics, etc.), this has not yet been studied in oral and maxillofacial surgery, especially at Boston Medical Center (BMC). During surgery, each participant will undergo our current Enhanced Recovery After Surgery "ERAS" protocol, which includes general anesthesia using inhalational gas, judicious IV fluids, intra-operative steroid and ondansetron (anti-emetic), use of 0.5% bupivacaine local anesthesia per quadrant at surgery end time, use of a throat pack, and orogastric/nasogastric (OG/NG) tube suctioning prior to extubation to minimize ingestion of blood. Pain and anxiety medications prior to and during surgery include 2 mg midazolam, fentanyl per anesthesia, toradol, and dexmedetomidine. Having this protocol will help minimize confounding variables that could affect the primary outcome-- incidence and severity of PONV. The objectives for this research are: * To evaluate if pre-operative clear CHO help reduce incidence and intensity of PONV. * To assess if pre-operative clear carbohydrate fluids affect length of hospital stay * To determine if pre-operative CHO reduce patient's pre-/post-operative anxiety * To compare the amount/number of opioids and anti-emetics needed post-operatively between the two groups * To compare ability for patients to return to PO hydration via the amount of fluid ingestion (mL) vs. if they need IV fluids due to decreased PO intake/inability to tolerate PO fluids * To evaluate if patient Apfel score is also a strong indicator for incidence/severity of PONV
