NCT01950520
Background: \- Changes in how a person's body burns energy or calories can affect their weight over time. The lowest level of energy the body needs to function is called basal metabolic rate. In the cold, we burn extra energy, even before we start to shiver. This is called non-shivering thermogenesis and it occurs in different types of tissue such as muscle and fat. Researchers want to learn more about this type of energy burning and how it is regulated. They hope this will help treat obesity in the future. Objectives: * Sub-study 1: to better understand how non-shivering thermogenesis works. * Sub-study 2: to measure the effects of anti-obesity drugs on basal metabolic rate. * Sub-study 3: to better understand the effects of mirabegron, a beta-3 adrenergic receptor agonist, on brown fat activity. Eligibility: \- Healthy, lean adult males ages 18 to 35. Design: * Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, blood test, and EKG. * For sub-studies 1 and 2: * Participants will receive one X-ray scan. * Each day, all participants will: * Have height and weight measured, and have urine collected. * Spend 4 hours in a temperature-controlled room with furniture, toilet area, phone, and computer. They will wear small non-invasive devices to monitor activity, heart rate, temperature, and shivering. * Walk for 30 minutes. * For sub-study 3: * Participants will receive one DXA scan and up to 4 PET/CT scans and 4 MRIs * Each stay, all participants will: * Have height and weight measured, and have urine collected. * Spend 6 hours in a temperature-controlled room with furniture, toilet area, phone, and computer. They will wear small non-invasive devices to monitor activity, heart rate, temperature, and shivering. * Participants will be compensated for their time and participation at the end of the study

NCT06638476
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if perturbation-induced step training improves stepping performance during a reactive and voluntary step. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does perturbation induced step training improve step initation time and first recovery step? Researchers will compare lateral perturbation induced step training to lateral voluntary step training to see if the first recovery steps improve. Participants will: Vist the lab for an initial assessment, post exercise and one month post exercise of voluntary and perturbation induced stepping performance, and clinical tests of balance, motor recovery, sensory and strength tests. Exercise 3 times a week for 6 weeks in person Track falls for 6 months after the exercise.
NCT04857281
The hypothesis of this pilot study is that nVNS will result in relief of nausea by modulation of vagal nerve activity. nVNS is the first non-invasive, handheld medical device applied on the side of the neck and sends gentle, patented mild electrical stimulation through the skin to activate the vagus nerve. nVNS offers a potential alternative to Gastric electrical stimulation (GES) that could eliminate significant risks of injury or illness or identify likely responders to implantable neurostimulator including implanted VNS (iVNS). nVNS could provide a more effective and safer alternative to the use of traditional rescue medications.

NCT04621877
In response to large numbers of senior center clients who suffer untreated depression and the dearth of geriatric mental health providers, the investigators have simplified Behavioral Activation to be delivered by lay volunteers ("Do More, Feel Better"; DMFB). The focus of Behavioral Activation is to guide clients to reengage in daily pleasant and rewarding activities, and reduce depressive symptoms. If the investigators can show that the lay delivery model has positive impact in comparison to MSW-delivered Behavioral Activation, the investigators will have identified an effective intervention that can be used by a large untapped workforce of older adult volunteers across the nation.
