The purpose of the CLEAR study is to determine the effect on counterregulatory responses (CRR) of intervening (by attempting to strictly avoid hypoglycemia) to improve awareness of hypoglycemic symptoms among adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who have impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH). IAH affects 20-25% of adults with T1D, and rises with increasing duration of T1D.

Three pieces of information lead to the basis for this study: 1. Individuals with Type-2 diabetes commonly develop peripheral neuropathy. 2. Increased production of the hormone amylin occurs in individuals who have Type-2 diabetes. 3. Aggregations of amylin was found in the peripheral vasculature of rats that overexpressed human amylin. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a correlation exists between the amount of amylin present in the upper extremities of human subjects with Type-2 diabetes and the extent to which symptoms of peripheral neuropathy are expressed in those subjects. The investigators will be testing this by initially collecting blood and skin biopsy samples from subjects, followed by measuring patient sensation and pain responses to heat, cold, and pressure in the upper extremities.

This is a prospective, randomized study designed to compare genotype-guided dosing to usual care in patients with pancreas cancer and colorectal cancer who are UGT1A1 intermediate metabolizers (*1/*28) (heterozygotes) and usual UGT metabolizers (*1/*1). All patients will be assessed for UGT1A1 genotype at screening and those with intermediate or usual UGT1A1 genotypes (*1/*28, *1/*1) will be randomized to genotype-guided dosing versus usual care.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different standardized physical therapy rehabilitation programs on outcomes after an ankle fracture. Researchers will evaluate to see if the addition of ankle muscle power exercises (AMP) improve program adherence, muscle function, physical performance, and patient reported outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Assess feasibility and define the initial effects of the AMP program on ankle plantar flexor rate of torque development and ankle power. Primary hypothesis: an ankle muscle power program will have acceptable feasibility through assessment of 80% adherence, 90% treatment fidelity, recruitment (48 participants who complete the study), 80% retention, and 80% acceptability of the AMP program to facilitate clinical translation and the ability to scale-up the treatment. In addition ankle plantar flexor muscle power, plantar flexor RTD assessed isometrically, and ankle joint power, evaluated during gait and stair ascent/descent, will have significantly greater improvements in the AMP group than the standard of care group at the end of the intervention. 2. Test the effect of the AMP program on physical performance. Primary hypothesis: those completing the AMP program will have greater improvements in the 40 meter fast paced walk test and 11-stair climb test than those completing standard of care at the completion of the intervention. 3. Assess the preliminary efficacy of the AMP program on patient reported outcomes and quality of life. Primary hypothesis: compared to standard of care, the AMP program will result in improved quality of life on the ankle fracture outcome rehabilitation measure (A-FORM) Participants will complete rehabilitation and be assessed for outcomes at baseline and after completing the intervention. Additionally exploratory outcomes will be assessed 3 months after completing the intervention.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test how exercise affects learning and memory processes relevant to the treatment of PTSD. Participants will complete a baseline intake followed by two experimental sessions. During the first experimental session, participants will undergo an MRI session of imaginal exposure to traumatic memory cues followed by 30-minutes of moderate intensity exercise or low intensity exercise. Participants will complete a second session of imaginal exposure with MRI 24 hours later.

Imatinib can lead to long recurrence free survival in patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST); however side effects can significantly hinder quality of life for our patients. This study will use therapeutic drug monitoring to improve quality of life and symptoms and assess how many patients maintain therapeutic levels. Free drug levels and pharmokinetics of imatinib will also be monitored.

Appalachian Kentuckians in Martin and Letcher Counties are grappling with a health-threatening drinking water crisis arising from exposures to disinfection by-products (DBPs). DBPs include trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetic acids (HAAs), chlorate, and other compounds that have been associated with a variety of adverse health effects, including increased risk of bladder cancer and cardiovascular birth defects. This study implements a multi-stakeholder, multi-method approach to improve understanding of, characterize spatial and temporal variations in, and reduce exposure to DBPs in these Appalachian Kentucky counties.

Patients with a primary invasive melanoma are recommended to undergo excision of the primary lesion with a wide margin. There is evidence that less radical margins of excision may be just as safe. This is a randomised controlled trial of 1 cm versus 2 cm margin of excision of the primary lesion for adult patients with stage II primary invasive cutaneous melanomas (AJCC 8th edition) to determine differences in disease-free survival. A reduction in margins is expected to improve patient quality of life.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Cobenfy influences the effects of cocaine in people with cocaine use disorder. This trial will also provide information about the safety and tolerability of combining Cobenfy and cocaine. Researchers will compare Cobenfy to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if Cobenfy is a safe, tolerable and effective at blocking cocaine's effects in participants with cocaine use disorder. Participants will: - Participate in an 11-day inpatient trial - Take Cobenfy or placebo twice per day. - Participate in experimental sessions to test the effects of Cobenfy (or placebo) on the response to cocaine and cocaine self-administration.

This study is evaluating whether acupuncture may help reduce hot flashes in men receiving hormone therapy for prostate cancer. Hot flashes are a common side effect of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and may negatively affect sleep, mood, concentration, daily activities, and overall quality of life. Participants enrolled in this study will receive acupuncture treatment over a defined treatment period. The study will assess changes in hot flash frequency, severity, and quality of life using patient questionnaires and symptom diaries. Participants will complete a daily hot flash diary during selected 7-day assessment periods and quality-of-life questionnaires during study visits. The primary goal of this study is to determine whether acupuncture may improve hot flash symptoms and related quality of life in men undergoing treatment for prostate cancer.

People with EPI due to Cystic Fibrosis (CF) may be eligible to participate in this study. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of ANG003 and see if it works as well compared to Creon, an approved PERT.

The main purpose of this study is to compare patients with a deep bleed in the brain undergoing surgery to patients receiving routine medical care. The standard treatment involves admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) with close monitoring and blood pressure control. It also includes other medical (non-surgical) treatments to prevent more bleeding or another stroke. Sometimes, doctors will recommend surgery to remove the blood if medical treatment alone is not successful. There is evidence that doing minimally invasive surgery early-using a small opening in the skull to remove blood-may help some patients. Researchers aim to understand whether this surgery is better than current medical treatment, which may include surgeries to relieve pressure on the brain in some cases. This study, called REACH, is comparing usual medical care to early minimally invasive surgery so doctors can know which is better for patients.
