NCT02175732
Diabetes Distress (DD) refers to the emotional and behavioral challenges and burdens that arise through living with and managing diabetes. High DD is characterized by feeling frustrated, overwhelmed and discouraged by the demands of diabetes, and high DD may have a negative impact on disease management and glycemic control; poor glycemic control can also have a negative effect on DD. Few interventions have been assessed that directly target DD or mood in adults with Type 1 diabetes. In this study the investigators will compare two active, evidence-based behavioral interventions to reduce high DD and improve glycemic control and disease management: 1. A Type 1 diabetes education protocol ('KnowIt') that brings together new advances in diabetes education and behavioral management. 2. A DD-reduction protocol ('OnTrack') that helps identify and address the personal stresses and strains of having diabetes. Participants in both arms will attend a single, day-long workshop, four hour-long web group meetings and four personal phone calls with the group facilitator during the intervention period. Assessments will be carried out at baseline and at three and nine months. Hypothesis 1: OnTrack will be superior to KnowIt in the primary and secondary outcomes at follow-up. Hypothesis 2: Changes in self-efficacy and fear of hypoglycemia over time will mediate the difference between the two study arms and primary outcome. Hypothesis 3: The differences between the two study arms and changes in the primary outcomes will be qualified by patient characteristics such as age, length of diagnosis, higher baseline distress or HbA1c.
NCT02072161

NCT01223261
The purposes of this study were: 1) to compare mortality and postoperative morbidities in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants who underwent initial laparotomy or drainage for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or isolated intestinal perforation (IP); 2) to determine the ability to distinguish NEC from IP preoperatively and the importance of this distinction on outcome measures; and 3) to evaluate the association between extent of intestinal disease determined at operation and outcome measures. All ELBW infants born at participating NRN centers were screened for the presence of NEC or IP that was thought by the pediatric surgeon and neonatologist to require surgical intervention. Data were collected enrolled infants, including: intraoperative findings recorded by the surgeon and specific post-operative complications. Neurodevelopmental examinations were conducted on surviving infants at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT00109525
This observational study evaluated the performance of new lab tests in detecting candida species fungal infections in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants quickly and accurately. 19 NICHD Neonatal Research Network sites enrolled 1,500 infants with birth weights ≤1,000g; 100 of these infants later tested positive for candidiasis. Blood, urine, and lumbar puncture samples were collected whenever other specimens were obtained from participants for cultures. These samples are being tested using the new methods and compared with standard culture results. Surviving study subjects completed a neurodevelopmental evaluation at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT01203423
This study was an observational study to estimate the prevalence of Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) among term or near-term infants with severe respiratory disease.
NCT01406821
Platelet rich plasma has been used in previous studies to stimulate faster healing of torn ligaments and tendons in order to help reduce pain and restore normal function. This study aims to prove that non-operative treatment of acute and chronic ligament and tendon injuries with platelet rich plasma will reduce the time needed for participants to heal these injuries and restore function. We are currently enrolling patients with PATELLAR TENDON INJURIES in the KNEE.
NCT01282736
The proposed study will employ a randomized design to evaluate the efficacy of two group-based guided self-help treatments: Integrative Response Therapy (IRT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy Guided Self-Help, a treatment of known efficacy, in group-format (CBT-GSHg) in the treatment of Binge Eating Disorder (BED), and explore (1) moderators and mediators of treatment, (2) the relative cost-effectiveness of the two treatments, and (3) between group differences on secondary measures (e.g., eating disorder and general psychopathology).
NCT01410552
ISIS- ICD study has been designed to evaluate the impact of PARAD+ algorithm on inappropriate shocks, in a general population implanted for primary or secondary prevention with a dual or tri chamber device at one year follow-up
NCT01273155
Background: \- Belinostat is an experimental cancer treatment drug that works by helping to turn on genes that limit cell growth and survival of cancer cells. These genes are often switched off in tumors. Belinostat has been given to patients with different types of cancer to measure its safety and effectiveness, but it has not been given in a formal trial to cancer patients who have abnormal liver function. Because belinostat is processed by the liver, its safety and effectiveness needs to be established in individuals who have abnormal liver function. Researchers are interested in comparing the effects of belinostat as a cancer treatment drug in individuals with normal and abnormal liver function. Objectives: * To test the safety and effectiveness of belinostat in individuals who have solid tumors and lymphomas and who also have abnormal liver function. * To compare the results of belinostat treatment in individuals with normal and abnormal liver function. Eligibility: * Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with solid tumors or lymphomas that have not responded to standard treatment. * Individuals with normal liver function and varying degrees of abnormal liver function (mild, moderate, severe) are eligible. Design: * Participants will be screened with a full medical history and physical examination, as well as blood and urine tests, and tumor imaging studies. Participants will then be divided into study groups based on their liver function. * Participants will receive belinostat in cycles of treatment. Except for cycle 1, all cycles will last 21 days. Cycle 1 will last 28 days. For cycle 1 only, participants will receive a single dose of belinostat 1 week before the regular 21-day treatment cycle starts. * In each cycle, participants will receive belinostat once a day for 5 days, and will be asked to keep a medication diary to record any side effects. * Participants will have regular clinic visits with blood and urine sample collection and imaging studies to evaluate the cancer's response to treatment. * Participants may continue to take belinostat for as long as the cancer responds to the treatment.

NCT00626912
The PRET study aims at comparing two types of coils used in the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The first type made of platinum has been used for more than 15 years. The other, referred to as hydrocoil, containing in addition to platinum a polymer layer that expands when in contact with blood, has been in use since 2002. The hypothesis of the PRET study is that the newer hydrocoil will be more effective and yet as safe as the older platinum coil.
