NCT07153250
The investigators are doing this research to test whether parents of children ages 2-7 can better manage their child's anxiety by completing a brief, online, self-guided parent education program. One way to provide anxiety management skills to more children, and to potentially prevent worsening outcomes, is to offer online and self-guided educational programs that parents can complete without a clinician. This randomized trial will evaluate the effects of two brief, online, self-guided parent education programs designed to improve parents' understanding of anxiety and teach parents way to help their children cope with anxiety. Parents will be randomly assigned to one of the three programs. The main aim of the study is to examine whether the parent programs, compared to an educational control reduce parental accommodation of anxiety across a 1-, 4-, and 8-month follow-up period. As a secondary aim, the investigators will explore whether the parent programs reduce children's anxiety symptoms over the 8-month follow-up period. Results will inform the development of a scalable, low-cost model for promoting access to evidence-based treatment to young children.

NCT05769582
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of AntiBKV in reducing BKV DNAemia and progression to biopsy-confirmed BKVAN in kidney transplant recipients. This study has an operationally seamless phase II/III design. The phase II part will evaluate the safety of AntiBKV in kidney transplant recipients and establish antiviral proof of concept. The phase II part includes a dose-comparison part to generate additional PK and PD data of AntiBKV. The phase III part will assess the efficacy of AntiBKV in kidney transplant recipients. For both the phase II and phase III parts, participants will be randomized to receive either four doses of AntiBKV or four doses of placebo (every four weeks). In phase II, 60 participants will be first randomized (1:1) to receive either four doses of 1,000 mg of AntiBKV or placebo. In an additional dose-comparison extension, another 30 participants will be enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive either four doses of 1,000 mg AntiBKV, four doses of 500 mg AntiBKV, or placebo. Based on a Day 141 analysis after phase II the sample size for the phase III part of the trial will be defined. Both the phase II and phase III parts will follow identical study assessments and schedules for participants. Eligible participants will receive an intravenous infusion of the investigational medicinal product (IMP) that will be administered four times at a four-week interval. For the first ten participants enrolled in the study, the infusion time will be at least 60 minutes. Provided there are no safety concerns observed with the first ten participants the duration of subsequent infusions will be at least 30 minutes. After administration of the final dose, participants will return as out participants for periodic safety, BKV DNAemia, and PK follow-up assessments until the end of the trial visits, 26 weeks post last IMP application. Regular kidney biopsies will be performed at baseline (prior to infusion) and on Day 141 (8 weeks after full dosing). An additional biopsy will be taken on Day 267 (optional) and if clinically indicated.
NCT06639464
The is a pilot, 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial of individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) newly initiating buprenorphine to receive either weekly injections of semaglutide (n=23) or matching placebo (n=23). The primary aim is to determine the effects of semaglutide on cue-reactivity among individuals with OUD. The secondary aim is to assess the preliminary efficacy, safety, and tolerability of semaglutide for OUD.
NCT04852042
This research will test the efficacy of a weight management intervention through a three-group randomized trial: mHealth only, mHealth+Community Health Worker (CHW) support, versus control group, among residents of Boston's public housing developments. The mHealth group consists of a 1-year text messaging program to promote diet and physical activity behavior changes and the CHW support consists of monthly phone counseling delivered by a CHW to support the text messaging program. Our hypothesis is that the mHealth+CHW group will be more effective in bringing about weight loss compared to mHealth alone or the assessment only control group. The findings are expected to inform future health promotion efforts among residents in public housing developments.
NCT06281821
Chronic pain and heavy drinking are common co-occurring conditions among patients presenting to primary care settings. Given their impact on functioning and medical outcomes, there would be considerable benefit to developing an accessible, easily utilized, integrative approach to reduce alcohol use and pain that can be readily incorporated into the health care settings. The objective of this study is to test a modified version of a smartphone-based intervention for reducing pain and alcohol use among individuals experiencing chronic pain who engage in heavy drinking. The primary goal is to test the feasibility and acceptability of implementing this intervention in a sample that includes participants from rural areas and providing initial data on the utility of the intervention.
NCT02723929
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in conjunction with transcranial ultrasound (TUS) on pain perception and functional limitations in people with osteoarthritis of the knee. The investigators hypothesize that there will be a decrease in pain levels with active stimulation, when compared to sham stimulation.
NCT05665491
Approximately 30% of children will experience an anxiety disorder, making anxiety the most common mental health problem among children in the United States. However, few children receive treatment and even our most effective anxiety treatments leave up to half of children in need of additional intervention. Despite the well-established role of parent anxiety in transmitting and maintaining child anxiety, the lack of data on specific parent mechanisms underlying the intergenerational transmission of anxiety is a critical barrier to informing novel targets of personalized treatments. Consistent with NIMH's Strategic Plan, Objective 2.2 to understand risk factors and behavioral indicators of mental illness across the lifespan and to identify novel intervention targets based on knowledge of psychological mechanisms, the current study focuses on interpretation bias, the tendency to perceive threat in ambiguous situations. The overall objective of this project is to empirically test a theoretical model of the intergenerational transmission of anxiety focused on parent interpretation bias as a root cause. Our specific aims are to test theorized effects of parent interpretation bias on (1) parent behavior and (2) child interpretation bias and (3) evaluate potential moderators to refine theories of intergenerational transmission of anxiety and inform future personalized interventions. Our central hypothesis is that parent interpretation bias influences child interpretation bias through its effects on maladaptive, anxiety-promoting parenting behaviors, such as accommodation and modeling of avoidant coping. To test this hypothesis, we will randomize 300 parents of children ages 7-12 to complete four weeks of a smartphone delivered interpretation bias manipulation vs. a self-assessment smartphone app condition. The interpretation bias intervention teaches parents to interpret ambiguous situations in a non-threatening manner via quick, repeated practice and corrective feedback. Before and after completing their randomly assigned condition, parent-child dyads will complete self-report and behavioral tasks designed to elicit anxiety-promoting behaviors from parents depending upon their interpretation of the ambiguous situation (speech and puzzle tasks). Parents will also complete Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) of parenting behaviors to capture the time course of effects. Finally, we will examine downstream effects of the interpretation manipulation on child interpretation bias at pre- and post- visits. We will test moderators (e.g., parent anxiety and gender) to refine theories of intergenerational transmission of anxiety and inform future personalized interventions. The long-term goal of this work is to inform personalized, mechanism-focused interventions to improve mental health outcomes for anxious children and their parents. Future studies will translate knowledge gained from this project into a scalable treatment that can be implemented entirely remotely via smartphone thereby increasing access to care

NCT06576089
Stroke is a major health issue in Canada. Stroke affects over 400,000 Canadians, and this number is expected to nearly double by 2038. Research studies in stroke recovery can help us better understand effective rehabilitation treatments and help reduce the burden of stroke. Some groups of people however are commonly not included in stroke studies. For example, it is more common for men to take part in research than women, and people with aphasia (a language impairment commonly seen after stroke) are often excluded from studies. Also, deciding whether to even take part in a research study can be difficult and overwhelming, especially in the early days after stroke, leaving many people to decline to participate. Research has shown that women experience different barriers to participating in stroke research than men. This means that research findings, and the decisions made during stroke care based on these findings, may not reflect the true stroke population. Better ways to help support groups like women and people with aphasia to participate in stroke research are needed, so that study findings will better represent people living with stroke.
