Compare two local anesthetics after foot nerve blocks
This study tests whether lidocaine or levobupivacaine works better for how a nerve block behaves after foot surgery. It may help doctors choose the anesthetic that provides more reliable pain control after surgery.
Shatin, New TerritoriesAges 18–75 - NCT04401605Recruiting
Fermented foods diet for ulcerative colitis symptoms
This study tests whether adding fermented foods to your diet can improve symptoms of ulcerative colitis. It also looks at people with intestinal inflammation markers to see if diet changes may help them feel better.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04403867Recruiting
Study of tiny cancer spread found in sentinel lymph nodes
This trial studies whether very small deposits of cancer (called micrometastasis or isolated tumor cells) are found in sentinel lymph nodes in early endometrial or cervical cancer. The goal is to better understand what these findings may mean for cancer spread and treatment planning.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT04408430Recruiting
Valve replacement for severe mitral valve disease in high-risk adults
This trial tests a less-invasive way to treat severe mitral valve problems using a transcatheter valve. It may help people who are too high-risk for standard open-heart mitral surgery by improving symptoms and heart function.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04411823Recruiting
Predicting reflux after stomach sleeve surgery
This trial looks at how to predict who will develop acid reflux after a “stomach sleeve” operation. It may help doctors choose the safest plan before surgery and better prevent reflux afterward.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04416581RecruitingPhase 4
Compare two stomach-protecting medicines to prevent bleeding
This trial compares a potassium-competitive acid blocker to a proton pump inhibitor to help prevent stomach or intestinal bleeding in people at high risk who take blood-thinning medicines. It may help reduce dangerous GI bleeding while you stay on heart/stroke medicines.
AnyangAges 19 years+ - NCT04429750Recruiting
Cord resuscitation approach for babies with diaphragmatic hernia
This study looks at a specific way to support a newborn’s breathing right after birth when they have congenital diaphragmatic hernia (a birth condition affecting the diaphragm). If you qualify, the team will compare their resuscitation approach to standard care to see if it helps babies in the delivery room.
AmiensAges 8 months–9 months - NCT04433052Recruiting
Personalized heart-protection program for people at high risk
This trial tests whether a tailored prevention plan can improve outcomes and help with costs for people at high risk of coronary heart disease. You may join if you’ve had recent heart events or scans show significant blockage, and if you can follow the visit and app requirements.
HelsinkiAges 30–80 - NCT04433572RecruitingPhase 3
Temsirolimus treatment to improve below-knee artery procedures
This trial studies whether delivering a medicine called temsirolimus directly into the artery during a below-knee revascularization procedure can improve blood flow and outcomes. It may help people with severe leg artery disease who have symptoms like pain while walking or threatened limb tissue loss.
