Neurophysiological and Behavioral Effects of Combining Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) and Modified-Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (mCIMT)
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effect of different types of tDCS modulation with mCIMT in improving affected upper-limb motor function for stroke patients. The main question it seeks to answer: Which type of tDCS (bi-hemispheric, anodal, or cathodal) combined with the mCIMT program leads to greater improvement in affected upper-limb function in patients with stroke? Researchers will compare these three types of tDCS to a sham tDCS. To see which kind of tDCS protocol combined with the mCIMT program will be more effective in improving affected upper-limb function for stroke patients. Participants will: 1. Participants will receive 12 sessions of mCIMT combined with tDCS or mCIMT alone. 2. Visit the clinic three times a week for four weeks. 3. Participants will do fMRI and TMS before and after the program and three times of assessment before and after two weeks after the program.
Efficacy and Safety of CSL222 (Etranacogene Dezaparvovec) Gene Therapy in Adults With Hemophilia B With Pretreatment Adeno-associated Virus Serotype 5 (AAV5) Neutralizing Antibodies (Nabs)
The purpose of this study is to assess the risk of bleeding due to failure of expected pharmacological action of CSL222 in adults with severe or moderately severe hemophilia B with detectable pretreatment AAV5 Nabs.
Pegtibatinase as a Treatment for Participants With Classical Homocystinuria (HCU) Receiving Standard of Care Treatment
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people living with classical homocystinuria (HCU), a rare inherited condition. It is caused by changes in the cystathionine beta-synthase (or "CBS") gene and prevents an enzyme from working correctly in the body. This enzyme helps break down homocysteine, which is produced when the body processes methionine from protein-containing foods. This helps keep homocysteine and methionine at healthy levels. When this enzyme is not working, homocysteine and methionine build up in the blood and then spread into different tissues of the body and stop these body tissues from working normally. People living with HCU can experience problems with their vision, bones, blood vessels, thinking, learning, and memory. Available treatments for HCU include a low-methionine diet (typically achieved by limiting protein-containing foods), a methionine-free protein supplement to help meet daily protein needs, and betaine (Cystadane®). These treatments are either not sufficient or are hard to take for many patients. Pegtibatinase was designed by researchers to act like the CBS enzyme, which is missing or not working properly in people living with HCU. Researchers are studying whether adding pegtibatinase to standard treatment can lower homocysteine levels. Researchers want to learn how safe and effective pegtibatinase is, how it moves through and affects the body, and how it may affect the daily lives of people with HCU. The study plans to enroll participants from the US, Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Turkey, and the United Kingdom. Many study visits may happen at home, depending on where you live and local regulations. Some visits may include a home nurse and telemedicine appointments with the study doctor.
National Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Prospective Cohort, Saudi Arabia
SLE disease in Saudi Arabia is yet not well defined especially in a population with high consanguinity and high inbreeding coefficient . Up until now, there has been no prospective cohort study for SLE patients in Saudi Arabia. As a result, current published literature is focused on retrospective chart reviews which are subjected to many forms of bias. so the investigator proposed this prospective registry which will follow open cohort study design aiming to provide better understanding of disease presentation, course and outcomes especially if complemented by detailed immunological, molecular, genetic and microbiome data.
Efficacy of Liberal Versus Restricted IV Fluid Approach in the Management of Sickle Cell Vaso-Occlusive Crisis
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a prevalent inherited blood disorder characterized by vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs), which lead to severe pain and complications. Despite hydration being a cornerstone of VOC management, the optimal fluid strategy remains uncertain. This study evaluates restrictive versus liberal fluid management strategies in patients with acute VOC. This multi-center, open-label, non-inferiority RCT will enroll patients with SCD presenting with acute VOC. Participants will be randomized to either a restrictive or liberal intravenous fluid management protocol. Primary outcome is pain score reduction. Secondary outcomes include time to pain resolution, ED length of stay, hospital admission rate, cumulative opioid dose, adverse events (incidence of fluid overload, pulmonary congestion), acute chest syndrome, incidence of acute kidney injury, revisit rates within 72 hours of ED discharge, need for intensive care or high-dependency unit admission, need for additional interventions, and 28 days overall mortality. Data will be analyzed using intention-to-treat principles. We hypothesize that a restrictive fluid strategy will achieve non-inferior pain control compared to a liberal strategy, while minimizing fluid-related complications. This study will provide evidence to inform clinical guidelines for fluid management in SCD patients experiencing VOCs.
Effects of Combined High Intensity Interval Training and Resistance Training
Background: Hypertension has long been considered as a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease representing a high public health concern. Objectives: the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of combined HIIT and resistance training on body composition, blood pressure, and cardiorespiratory fitness in obese hypertensive men. Methods: This study will make use of sixty obese hypertensive men aged 40 to 60 years. All participants meeting the eligibility criteria will be assigned to one of three groups; combined HIIT and resistance group, HIIT only group or control group. Combined exercise group subjects will undergo weekly three sessions of both HIIT and resistance training for sixteen weeks. The HIIT session will involve four four-minute high-intensity intervals with an intensity of at 80-95% of the HRmax interspersed with two-minute active recovery intervals with intensity of 40% to 60% of the HRmax. The resistance training session will be composed of eight exercises perform 3 sets of 8-12 repetitions with an intensity of 80% of the subject's estimated 1-RM. The HIIT only group perform 12 weeks of HIIT only. The control group subjects will be instructed not to change their usual daily physical activities routine and instructed to abstain from practicing any exercise regimens during the 12-week study period. Body composition measures, blood pressure and VO2peak will be assessed at baseline and at the end of the study period. Results: All the outcome variables will be assessed at baseline and 12 weeks following the treatment period.
Thoracotomy Versus Thoracoscopic Management of Pulmonary Metastases in Patients With Osteosarcoma
This phase III trial compares the effect of open thoracic surgery (thoracotomy) to thoracoscopic surgery (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery or VATS) in treating patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung (pulmonary metastases). Open thoracic surgery is a type of surgery done through a single larger incision (like a large cut) that goes between the ribs, opens up the chest, and removes the cancer. Thoracoscopy is a type of chest surgery where the doctor makes several small incisions and uses a small camera to help with removing the cancer. This trial is being done evaluate the two different surgery methods for patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung to find out which is better.
