The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a home-based mHealth intervention can improve adherence to the 24-Hour Movement Guidelines in preschool-aged children (3-4 years old) who currently meet 0 or 1 of the guidelines for physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can the intervention increase the proportion of children meeting all three 24-Hour Movement Guidelines (physical activity, screen-time, and sleep)? - Is the intervention feasible for parents to implement, as measured by a parent feedback survey? Researchers will compare an intervention group to a waitlist control group to assess whether the intervention leads to increased guideline adherence. Parents and Participants: - Children will wear an accelerometer to track physical activity and sleep patterns. - Parents will use a mobile app that delivers weekly lessons and behavior-related goals to encourage healthy movement behaviors in their children. - Parents will complete questionnaires on their child's movement behaviors and development at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks. - Additionally, children will undergo motor skills assessments, and parents will provide feedback on cognitive development and behavioral changes.

The goal of this observational prospective study is to determine the health impact of parenthood on United States (US) people with CF in the era of CF transmembrane regulator protein (CFTR) modulators. The investigators will collect physical and mental health data to comprehensively evaluate the impact of parenthood in CF with widespread highly effective CFTR modulator use. The main hypotheses this study aims to examine are: H1: Parents with CF and moderate-to-severe depression have more rapid change in ppFEV1 (percent predicted forced expiratory volume in one second) versus those with mild or no depression. H2: Parents with CF who have more parental responsibility and/or stress have more rapid ppFEV1 (percent predicted forced expiratory volume in one second) change than those with less responsibility/stress H3: Parents using CFTR modulators have decreased ppFEV1 (percent predicted forced expiratory volume in one second) change versus those not using CFTR modulators Participants will complete quarterly surveys during the first year of parenthood and biannual surveys, thereafter, using the computer-based survey system on an iPad protected for infection control or via personal device or computer via emailed survey link.

This trial has two cohorts of patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)-2-positive breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body. All patients must be receiving trastuzumab-based treatment. Both cohorts are being observed for cardiac toxicity. The largest cohort (currently open to accrual) is observational, and contains patients who are taking a beta blocker, ACE inhibitor, or ARB as well as their trastuzumab-based treatment. The goal is to understand how common cardiac problems are in this group of patients at high risk. The smaller cohort (currently closed to accrual) is randomized. Patients in this second cohort are randomized to either carvedilol or no treatment, with the goal of seeing whether carvedilol (used to treat heart failure and high blood pressure) may prevent the heart from side effects of chemotherapy.

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding a stem cell transplant with melphalan after completing chemotherapy with daratumumab, cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (Dara-VCD) versus chemotherapy with Dara-VCD alone for treating patients with newly diagnosed amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis. Melphalan is a chemotherapy given prior to a stem cell transplant. Giving chemotherapy before a peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. The stem cells are then returned to the patients to replace the blood forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cyclophosphamide and bortezomib, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to lower the body's immune response to help stop the growth of cancer cells. Giving a stem cell transplant with melphalan after Dara-VCD may kill more cancer cells in patients with newly diagnosed AL amyloidosis.

The most common types of acute leukaemia are acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). AML is a heterogenous clonal disorder of haemopoietic progenitor cells and the most common and severe malignant leukemia in adults and is responsible for the highest mortality from leukemia. ALL is a neoplasm characterized by the growth of malignant lymphoblasts of the B or T lineage, leading to an inhibition of proliferation of the normal blood cell lineages. The primary objectives of this study are investigating the safety, tolerability, and the MTD of LBS-007. The secondary objectives are to assess the efficacy and to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of LBS-007. The exploratory objective is to study and correlate the changes in surrogate biomarkers in response to treatment.

Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) often have concomitant coronary artery disease (CAD) which may adversely affect prognosis. There is uncertainty about the benefits and the optimal timing of revascularization for such patients. There is currently clinical equipoise regarding the management of concomitant CAD in patients undergoing TAVR. Some centers perform routine revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (either before or after TAVR), while others follow an alternative strategy of medical management. The potential benefits and optimal timing of PCI in these patients are unknown. As TAVR expands to lower risk patients, and potentially becomes the preferred therapy for the majority of patients with severe aortic stenosis, the optimal management of concomitant coronary artery disease will be of increasing importance. The COMPLETE TAVR study will determine whether, on a background of guideline-directed medical therapy, a strategy of complete revascularization involving staged PCI using drug eluting stents to treat all suitable coronary artery lesions is superior to a strategy of medical therapy alone in reducing the composite outcome of Cardiovascular Death, new Myocardial Infarction, Ischemia-driven Revascularization or Hospitalization for Unstable Angina or Heart Failure. The study will be a randomized, multicenter, open-label trial with blinded adjudication of outcomes. Patients will be screened and consented for elective transfemoral TAVR and randomized within 96 hours of successful balloon expandable TAVR. Complete Revascularization: Staged PCI using third generation drug eluting stents to treat all suitable coronary artery lesions in vessels that are at least 2.5 mm in diameter and that are amenable to treatment with PCI and have a ≥70% visual angiographic diameter stenosis. Staged PCI can occur any time from 1 to 45 days post successful transfemoral TAVR. Vs. Medical Therapy Alone: No further revascularization of coronary artery lesions. All patients, regardless of randomized treatment allocation, will receive guideline-directed medical therapy consisting of risk factor modification and use of evidence-based therapies. The COMPLETE TAVR study will help address the current lack of evidence in this area. It will likely impact both the global delivery of health care and the management and clinical outcomes of all patients undergoing TAVR with concomitant CAD.

Eating disorders (EDs) are a critical concern on college campuses. Moreover, since the COVID-19 pandemic, ED prevalence has increased by 62% in university women and 140% in university men. Resources are inadequate to meet demand, leading to delays in students' access to treatment. Untreated (or poorly treated) EDs result in greater healthcare utilization and costs to students, as well as lower academic achievement and increased psychiatric disability and mortality, suggesting a critical need for quality ED treatment on university campuses and to rethink treatment delivery. One way to address this gap in care delivery is to improve treatment accessibility and scalability, such as dissemination via mobile apps. Guided self-help Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT-gsh) is a cost-effective option that can be delivered by non-traditional service providers, such as nurses and physicians. Our scientific premise is that the mHealth CBT-gsh app, Building Healthy Eating and Self-Esteem Together for University Students (BEST-U), will lead to reductions in binge eating (primary outcome) through reductions in dietary restraint and weight/shape concerns (target mechanisms). Prior to implementing BEST-U at other universities, we need to test the intervention in a real-world setting with the end goal of disseminating at scale. Our objectives are to: 1) conduct an effectiveness test of BEST-U compared to a similar dose of present-centered therapy (PCT) in students with non-low weight binge-spectrum EDs and 2) test target mechanisms that lead to changes in binge eating. To accomplish our objectives, we will test the following specific aims: 1) conduct an RCT of BEST-U (N=37) compared to a similar dose of PCT (N=37) in students with non-low weight binge-spectrum EDs; 2) test target mechanisms that lead to changes in binge eating and other ED symptoms; and 3) characterize barriers and facilitators to implementation across two campuses. Our exploratory aim will test food reinforcement and food-choice impulsivity as potential target mechanisms or response moderators of rapid response in binge eating. Given that few studies have identified underlying mechanisms that explain how CBT-gsh works and for whom, this study may lead to improved ability to tailor or modify existing CBT-gsh or lead to novel intervention development for students who are unlikely to respond rapidly (or at all) to first line CBT interventions for EDs.

The goal of this observational (cross-sectional) study is to better understand nutrition literacy in survivor-caregiver dyads and its impact on nutrition related outcomes and quality of life. We're interested in finding out how much they know about nutrition and how this might relate to their overall health, body composition, functional status, and overall well-being. We will target post-treatment head and neck cancer survivors and a paired informal caregiver. The main questions we aim to answer are: - How does the nutrition literacy of both the survivor and caregiver relate to their sociodemographic, behavioral, and clinical characteristics? - How dyadic nutrition literacy influence individual nutrition outcomes like skin carotenoid levels, body composition, and functional status? - Does the shared nutrition knowledge (nutrition literacy) of both the survivor and caregiver impact their quality of life together? Participants will: Answer questions about their knowledge of nutrition. Have their nutritional health status checked. Use a non-invasive device to measure skin carotenoid content to validate self-reports of fruit and vegetable intake. Have a simple and painless test to measure their body composition - like how much muscle and fat they have. Do some physical tests like grip strength and walking to measure their physical ability. Answer questions about their general well-being and lifestyle, like exercise and diet. (For the survivor) Share details about their cancer, its treatment, and their overall well-being. (For the caregiver) Answer questions about their role in taking care of the survivor, and their involvement in care routine such as food shopping and cooking.

The investigators are doing this study to see if a treatment called dry needling improves muscle spasticity (muscle tightness) in people who have Multiple Sclerosis. Dry needling involves using tiny needles, like those in acupuncture, to target some muscles, like calf muscles. It differs from traditional acupuncture as it focuses on treating or managing muscle spots, aiming to reduce muscle stiffness and pain. Dry needling may offer a minimally-invasive and medication-free approach to improve muscle spasticity. The investigators hope to see if dry needling also helps enhance balance and walking abilities. This might provide potential improvements inoverall mobility and balance.
