### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The incidence of gestational hypertension and preeclampsia in the assisted reproductive technology population during pregnancy was significantly higher than that in the general normal pregnancy population. The use of assisted reproductive technology in this population due to infertility is often accompanied by many hypertension-related factors. We established a prospective cohort study based on assisted reproductive technology pregnancy population and natural pregnancy population. Through continuous monitoring of blood pressure changes and other risk factors during pregnancy in the two groups, we explored the trajectory trend and inflection point of assisted reproductive technology pregnancy population blood pressure during pregnancy. Through factor analysis, the risk factors of elevated blood pressure during pregnancy can be clearly identified, so as to carry out early intervention and strengthen the control of risk factors of elevated blood pressure in assisted reproductive technology population, in order to expect benign maternal and infant outcomes.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the analgesic efficacy of thoracal paravertebral block (TPVB) and serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). The main questions it aims to answer are:
How will the total perioperative opioid consumption of the patients receiving two different blocks change? How will TPVB and SPSIPB effect the patients' numeric rating scores for pain in the postoperative 24-hour period? How will TPVB and SPSIPB effect the incidence of opioid related side effects?
Participants will be divided in two groups:
TPVB group will receive a TPVB before the surgery. SPSIPB group will receive a SPSIPB nerve block before the surgery. Researchers will compare the results between the groups to see the postoperative effects concerning opioid consumption as well as the pain scores, respiratory parameters and opioid associated side effects.
The hypothesis of this study is that participants receiving SPSIPB for VATS will have a less total opioid consumption 24 hours postoperatively.
**Detailed Description:** Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgeries require a surgical incision of the lateral thoracic wall. In order to ease the postoperative pain of patients undergoing VATS, some regional anaesthesia techniques have been tried but there is no consensus on the best method. The gold standard peripheric nerve block is considered to be thoracal paravertebral block (TPVB). Recently, a new nerve block called serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) has been described. The anatomic and radiologic studies of SPSIPB suggest that the local anaesthetic distributes from C7 to T10 vertebrates, covering the surgical site of VATS. This study aims to compare the analgesic efficacy of TPVB and SPSIPB for VATS. The hypothesis is that participants receiving SPSIPB for VATS will have a less total opioid consumption 24 hours postoperatively. Also, the postoperative pain scores and opioid related side effects of the participants will be recorded. Participants will be divided in two groups. The group P will receive a TPVB preoperatively in the operating room. The group S will receive a SPSIPB preoperatively in the operating room. The participants will be followed 24 hours postoperatively and their total opioid consumption, numeric rating scores for pain, incidence of opioid related side effects will be recorded. Also the participants and the surgical teams perioperative pain related satisfaction will be evaluated.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** ILB-3101 is a fully humanized IgG1 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) which specifically binds to B7-H3, a target wildly expressed on solid tumor cells. The objectives of this study are to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and anti-tumor activity of ILB-3101 in Chinese advanced solid tumor patients.
**Detailed Description:** This is an open-label, multi-center, dose-escalation and expansion, first-in-human phase 1 study in Chinese adult participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. This study will consist of two parts: A Part Ia dose escalation stage and a Part Ib dose expansion stage.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK and preliminary anti-tumor activity, describe the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD) of HS-20093.
Part I: Participants with advanced cancer are eligible for dose escalation study if they have progressed on or intolerant to available standard therapies, or no standard or available curative therapy exists. The dose escalation will include an initial accelerated titration design followed by 3+3 design.
Part II: Enrollment into dose expansion will begin after identification of the MTD or MAD in Phase I. The dose expansion study will be conducted in populations with the following indications: ovarian cancer, small cell lung cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, soft tissue sarcoma (including uterine sarcoma), triple negative breast cancer, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, prostate cancer, etc..
All patients will be carefully followed for adverse events during the study treatment and for 28 days after the last dose of study drug. Subjects will be permitted to continue therapy with assessments for progression if the product is well tolerated and sustained clinical benefit exists.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** In adults, chronic plantar fasciitis stands as the predominant cause of persistent heel discomfort.Usually, individuals depict a pulsating pain concentrated around the point of origin of the plantar fascia on the calcaneus. Numerous randomized and non-randomized studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of radiofrequency as a treatment modality for chronic plantar heel pain.In this study, our objective is to assess the impact of radiofrequency modalities applied to the posterior tibial nerve and/or the calcaneal spur area, guided by ultrasound, on patient satisfaction, pain scores, and functional improvement in individuals with chronic plantar fasciitis
**Detailed Description:** Chronic plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of chronic heel pain in adults. Typically, patients describe a throbbing pain localized around the origin of the plantar fascia on the calcaneus. This pain is often most severe when taking the first steps in the morning or rising after sitting. It typically improves with activity but worsens with prolonged activity. The primary aim of heel spur treatment is to alleviate pain and restore function. Surgical interventions are recommended for chronic plantar heel pain resistant to conservative options. However, surgery may be associated with prolonged recovery, and in one study, superiority over conservative treatment was not demonstrated. Radiofrequency has been shown to be an effective treatment method for chronic plantar heel pain in many randomized and non-randomized studies. In many studies, most of these procedures are applied blindly based on anatomical landmarks, with attention drawn in many studies to applications targeting the terminal branches of the posterior tibial nerve or the spur region. Only a few studies have been performed using fluoroscopy and ultrasound guidance. Ultrasound guidance offers several advantages over fluoroscopy and blind landmark techniques, especially in interventional procedures targeting neural and soft tissues. These advantages include the ability to visualize vascular and neural structures, very low risk of vascular-neural injury, absence of radiation exposure, and superiority in cases of anatomical variation. However, a common point in many studies related to plantar fasciitis is that applications are either directed to the spur area or to neural structures leading to the heel region. In this study, we aim to compare the effects of radiofrequency modalities applied to the posterior tibial nerve and/or calcaneal spur area under ultrasound guidance on patient satisfaction, pain scores, and patient functionality in cases of chronic plantar fasciitis (heel spur).

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Recently, growing evidences have suggested that immunotherapy represents a promising treatment option for the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR)/microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) gastric cancer. In this study, we will explore the efficacy and safety of sintilimab and LDRT in the neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced dMMR/MSI-H G/GEJ cancer.
**Detailed Description:** This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, phase Ib/II trial. In the phase Ib, 4 cases will be enrolled in each treatment group. In the phase II study, a total of 33 patients will be enrolled. Eligible patients will be registered and receive four cycles of sintilimab. Simultaneously, LDRT will be planned and administered. Radical D2 gastric cancer resection will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last administration of sintilimab. The primary endpoint of phase Ib is to determine the optimal radiation dose for phase II study. The primary endpoint of phase II is the pathological complete response (pCR) rate. Secondary endpoints include R0 resection rate, major pathological response (MPR), objective response rate (ORR), 3-year event-free survival (EFS) rate, 3-year overall survival (OS) rate and safety profile of the neoadjuvant regimen.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The purpose of this study was to investigate whether polyethylene (Vitamin E-containing polyethylene), which has been newly introduced and widely used clinically as a biomaterial for tibial inserts in total knee arthroplasty, but whose mid- to long-term clinical results are still unknown, is more effective than conventional polyethylene.
Our goal is to clarify through an international multi-center joint study using in vivo polyethylene wear particle analysis, which the investigators developed as a method to provide early feedback, as to whether polyethylene wear debris production in vivo can be reduced.
**Detailed Description:** Anticipated medical contribution and significance In this study, the investigators investigate whether a newly introduced polyethylene (highly cross-linked polyethylene, vitamin E-containing polyethylene in vivo) can suppress wear debris production more than conventional polyethylene. If the newly introduced polyethylene can reduce wear debris production, it is expected to reduce failure of artificial joints in the future. However, if newly introduced polyethylene is actually increasing wear debris production, it could be an early alarm bell for surgeons around the world. In other words, the international and social impact of this research is extremely large.
Two unique requirements are necessary to carry out this research. Firstly, in vivo analysis of polyethylene wear particles is possible, and secondly, the number of surgical cases of revision knee arthroplasty targeted for investigation is large. The first requirement is that the applicants have published many English-language papers on in vivo polyethylene wear debris analysis, and that their facilities are the most suitable and fully capable of carrying out the analysis worldwide. be. The second requirement is that the investigators need to collaborate not only with our hospital but also with facilities that perform a large number of revision knee arthroplasty surgeries. Not only our hospital, but also our affiliated hospital, which is one of the facilities in Japan that performs the most knee joint surgeries (Naniwa Ikuno Hospital), and the hospital that performs the most knee joint surgeries worldwide (Mayo Clinic \[USA\]). , Hospital for Special Surgery \[USA\], Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli \[Italy\]).
Research method In this study, the investigators conducted the following steps to determine the in vivo wear particles (number, size, and morphology) of conventional polyethylene, whose long-term results have already been clarified, and vitamin E-containing polyethylene, whose mid- to long-term results have not yet been clarified. Clarifying the difference \[Figure 3\].
Target of this research In this study, the investigators will focus on patients undergoing revision knee arthroplasty as a routine medical treatment.
First total joint replacement
* 30 patients using polyethylene containing Vitamin E
* 30 patients using conventional polyethylene (no highly cross-linking)
* 30 patients using conventional polyethylene (with highly cross-linking)
Accumulation of periarticular tissue In this study, the investigators will focus on patients undergoing revision knee arthroplasty as a routine medical treatment.
The test will be conducted after obtaining approval from the ethics committee at each facility and obtaining informed consent. The pericapsular tissue, which is removed during surgery and usually discarded, is obtained and fixed in formalin fixative. The tissue will be transported to the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Osaka Public University Graduate School of Medicine for analysis. International transportation of tissues requires outsourcing to specialized companies with experience in transporting tissues from overseas.
Isolation of polyethylene wear debris The collected tissue around the joint capsule is immersed in 5M NaOH at 65°C for 1 hour to decompose the protein. Make a sucrose layer (5, 10, 20%) in a 14ml tube (14PA tube, Hitachi Koki Co, Ltd, Tokyo, Japan), add the dissolved solution, and place in an ultracentrifuge (CP100a, P28S1014 rotor, Hitachi Koki). Ultracentrifuge at 28,000 rpm \[103,7009g\] for 3 hours at 4°C. Prepare an isopropanol layer (0.90 and 0.96 g/mL) in a 40 ml tube (40PA tube, Hitachi Koki Co, Ltd, Tokyo, Japan), add the upper layer of sucrose layer, and centrifuge at 28,000 rpm (103,7009 g ) and perform ultracentrifugation at 4°C for 1 hour. The isopropanol interlayer is collected to isolate polyethylene wear debris.
Analysis of polyethylene wear debris The isopropanol interlayer is filtered through a 0.1 μm polycarbonate filter (VCTP 013-00, Millipore Corporation, Bedford, MA). Dry the polycarbonate filter, fix it on an aluminum pedestal (M4, Nisshin EM Co, Ltd, Tokyo, Japan), and apply platinum coating (E-1030 ion sputter, Hitachi Science Systems Ltd, Tokyo, Japan). Observe the polyethylene wear particles on the polycarbonate filter using a scanning electron microscope (S4700SI, Hitachi Ltd, Tokyo, Japan), and analyze the following items using an image analyzer (Mac Scope, Mitani Co, Tokyo, Japan).
* Number of polyethylene wear particles (number per 1g of tissue)
* Size (Equivalent circle diameter \[μm\])
* Shape (aspect ratio, roundness)
Comparison of iv vivo polyethylene wear powder morphology depending on polyethylene material The number, size, and form of polyethylene wear debris will be compared between conventional polyethylene, whose long-term results have already been clarified, and vitamin E-containing polyethylene, whose medium- to long-term results have not yet been clarified.
The investigators also investigated factors that affect polyethylene wear in vivo (age, height, weight, period from initial surgery to revision surgery, knee joint range of motion, knee prosthesis clinical score \[Knee Society Score, University of California at Los Angeles activity score\]).
Evaluation items (outcome) Main evaluation items: Polyethylene wear particle morphology (number of wear particles, equivalent circle diameter \[㎛\], aspect ratio, roundness) \[Reason for setting primary endpoints\] Because it is a standard evaluation item for evaluating polyethylene wear debris.
Secondary endpoints:
* Body mass index
* Knee joint range of motion
* Clinical score (2011Knee Society Score, Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement, University of California at Los Angeles activity score) \[Reason for setting secondary endpoints\] Because it may affect the production of polyethylene wear debris.
Planned number of research subjects and basis for setting it (including cases where the number of research subjects is set without relying on statistical grounds) Total 90 cases
* 30 patients using polyethylene containing Vitamin E
* 30 patients using conventional polyethylene (no high cross-linking)
* 30 patients using conventional polyethylene (with high cross-linking) Rationale for setting: The target number of cases was determined from the number of cases at related institutions within the study period.

**Brief Summary:** The goal of this observational study is to learn how a physician uses the results of the Percepta® Nasal Swab test to manage people with a newly identified pulmonary nodule.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does the use of the Percepta Nasal swab test reduce the number of invasive procedures in people with a low-risk result and whose nodule is benign?
* Does the use of the Percepta Nasal swab test decrease the time to treatment in people with a high-risk result and whose nodule is cancer?
Participants will be randomly assigned to either a group where the test result is provided to the physician (test arm) or to a group where the test result is not provided (control arm). Researchers will compare management of participants in the two groups.
**Detailed Description:** This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized study to evaluate the clinical utility of the Percepta® Nasal Swab classifier in managing patients with pulmonary nodules identified incidentally or by lung cancer screening. Patients will be randomized to either the test group, where the test result will be returned to the physician to incorporate into decision-making on how to manage the patient's nodule, or the control group which will represent the standard of care where the result will not be returned to the physician. The study will observe and evaluate how the addition of the Percepta Nasal Swab classifier result impacts current management of newly identified lung nodules.
The study will enroll approximately 2400 participants meeting eligibility criteria at up to 100 centers in the US. Enrollment is expected to take approximately 24 months and participants will be followed for 24 to 30 months or until a diagnosis of lung cancer.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The CONSCIUS study is a prospective, interventional study including patients with acute brain injury and impaired consciousness implanted with intracranial electrodes. The aim of the study is to investigate seizures and thalamocortical neural dynamics underlying behavioral unresponsiveness.
**Detailed Description:** Individuals with severe brain injury often require extensive treatment in intensive care units (ICU) and hospitalization wards while uncertainty prevails about the recovery of consciousness and cognitive abilities. Especially in the acute phase after injury, treatment decisions have a tremendous impact on outcome, but rely on assessments of behavioral responsiveness which are known to be unreliable and subject to many confounders. Objective, quantifiable diagnostic and prognostic measures that can be deployed at the bedside during the ICU stay are lacking. Development of new metrics are hampered by our lack of a fundamental understanding of (i) thalamocortical network mechanisms underlying consciousness and (ii) brain-injury induced neural dynamics impacting both consciousness and outcome. Continuous EEG monitoring has been used to aid in this respect to (i) predict recovery of consciousness and outcome, and (ii) diagnose nonconvulsive seizures in unresponsive patients. Although promising, it lacks sensitivity, spatial resolution, and causal power. There is an urgent need for techniques allowing high-precision detection of pathological dynamics, patient stratification and prediction of a capacity for consciousness recovery in acute unresponsive patients with brain injury. Intracranial electrodes as part of multimodal monitoring in subjects with impaired consciousness and severe brain injury allow continuous bedside recordings of high spatiotemporal resolution in different network nodes and allows inducing brain perturbations, transcending correlational evidence of network analysis. This technique could increase the detection and treatment of nonconvulsive seizures contributing to brain injury and unresponsiveness and simultaneously allows to study networks supporting consciousness. This can lead to new diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for recovery based on thalamocortical profiles of activity, reactivity (complexity) and connectivity, ultimately paving to way for the development of biomarker-driven treatments to support early recovery such as deep brain stimulation. Eventually this can contribute to clinical decision making: abstaining from aggressive treatment in patients with no potential for recovery, and more importantly, continuing treatment in subjects with a responsive brain but without clear behavioural correlate.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this clinical trial is to test how effective the mindBEAGLE device is in allowing people who are unconscious (due to a brain injury or other condition) to communicate using brain waves to answer Yes/No questions. Participants will wear a cap that will be connected to a computer that measures brain waves, wrist bands that vibrate at different strengths, and ear phones that create different levels of loud tones and will be asked to associate Yes/No answers with the vibrations or tones. They will also be asked to "think about" moving different parts of their body to answer Yes or No. The mindBEAGLE device has already been proven effective for this kind of communication in a previous study, and the study team would like to trial it on a population of unconscious people who enter the UPMC Rehabilitation Institute to see if patients are able to be trained to use the device as part of their everyday inpatient rehabilitation until they are discharged, or until they are able to regain consciousness.
**Detailed Description:** The team's research reflects an integrated clinical and research team who will characterize and implement an aggressive and innovative approach using brain-computer interface (BCI) technology for Disorders of Consciousness (DoC) evaluation, prognostication, and rehabilitation care. The work proposed strives for equity in accessing healthcare systems and technology effectively, even among vulnerable individuals with profound levels of disability due to their DoC state.
The "gold-standard" for assessing cognitive capacity among patients with DoC relies on behavioral response observations and neuroimaging modalities. However, these approaches underestimate patients' capabilities. The current problem is that without other clinical data, rehabilitation teams rely solely on observable behavioral changes in patients' awareness of their environment in order to treat and improve communication. The project's challenge rests with implementing BCI focused assistive technology that identifies a unique and specific electrophysiological biomarker of cognitive and communication capacities that cannot be tapped using current clinical tools. If successful, this approach will allow clinical teams to initiate treatment and communication, avoiding therapeutic delays arising from traditional methods that require behavioral indicators needed to participate in functional communication.
The P300 wave is a positive deflection in the human event-related potential. It is most commonly elicited in an "oddball" paradigm when a subject detects an occasional "target" stimulus in a regular train of standard stimuli.
This project will compare standard awareness training methods used at the UPMC RI Brain Injury program with novel BCI research by using mindBEAGLE, a suite of P300 paradigms (vibrations, sound tones, and mental visualization) used for cognitive and communication assessment and treatment. European studies using the mindBEAGLE system with DoC patients reveal patients' cognitive and communication capabilities that impact current functional assessment and influence prognostication and recovery. The mindBEAGLE gives additional diagnostic data to enhance clinical neuroscience practice by showing reactions to stimuli that benefit from electroencephalogram (EEG) P300 use. However, clinical neuroscience implementation studies have not been conducted. Armed with more detailed and accurate assessments from this study, the investigators are confident that the clinical teams will be able to offer exciting rehabilitation treatments designed by UPMC RI treatment teams, patients, and families that leverage the mindBEAGLE interface for functional communication. Specifically, the EEG-based mindBEAGLE BCI suite will provide a practical platform for cognitive assessment of command following and a communication system for patients with DoC that will allow the research teams to offer more intensive, multidimensional rehabilitation treatments that meet the UPMC ideal of Life Changing Medicine.

Mediterranean Diet. In addition to the resistance intervention, the experimental group received a Mediterranean diet protocol based on the study by Ismail et al. \[34\] with the following meal plan: i) carbohydrates constituted 50% of daily intake; ii) fats repre-sented 35%; and iii) proteins accounted for 15%.
**Name:** Resistence training and mediterranean diet
**Type:** OTHER
### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** This was measured using the 14-item Mediterranean Diet Adherence Questionnaire (MEDAS) questionnaire, developed by the Prevention with Mediterranean Diet (PREDIMED) researchers. The questionnaire consists of 12 queries regarding how often various foods are eaten and two additional questions concerning typical eating habits in Spain \[35\]. Each question could be answered with a score of either zero or one. The total possible score ranged from 0 to 14, with a total of 9 or higher signifying sufficient compliance with the Mediterranean diet.
**Measure:** Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet
**Time Frame:** Up to twelve weeks
**Description:** To evaluate anxiety and depression levels, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used \[36,37\]. This instrument is frequently used in populations of older adults who are not institutionalized \[38\] and includes 14 questions, divided equally between anxiety (even questions) and depression (even questions). Items are scored on a scale of 0 to 3, resulting in a total score range of 0 to 21 for both anxiety and depression, with a higher number indicating a greater presence of symptoms.
Sleep quality
**Measure:** Anxiety and depression
**Time Frame:** Up to twelve weeks
**Description:** The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) \[39,40\], a widely recognized tool for the assessment of sleep quality, was the questionnaire selected for this task. The PSQI includes 19 self-report items and 5 additional items that must be completed by the participant's bed partner or roommate (the latter are used only to obtain clinical data). From these items, a global score is calculated and seven dimensions or areas are evaluated: sleep quality; time to fall asleep; sleep duration; sleep efficiency; problems during sleep; consumption of sleep medication; and daytime functioning problems. The total score on the PSQI ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating poor sleep quality.
**Measure:** Sleep quality
**Time Frame:** Up to twelve weeks
**Description:** The measurement of perceived stress was carried out using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) \[41\] in its version for the Spanish language \[42\], an instrument composed of 14 questions that determines the degree of stress felt in the last month. This questionnaire uses a response system based on a five-point scale (0 = never, 1 = almost never, 2 = occasionally, 3 = frequently, 4 = very frequently). To calculate the total score on the PSS, the response values for items 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, and 13 are reversed (so that 0 becomes 4, 1 becomes 3, etc.) and Then all the items are added. The score ranges from 0-56, with a higher score on the scale indicating a higher level of perceived stress.
**Measure:** Perceived stress

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The aim of this single-centre prospective randomized-controlled clinical trial is to assess whether patients adhere to prescribed weight bearing limits after surgical orthopaedic or traumatological interventions more accurately after instruction using a biofeedback method than using the standard method.
**Detailed Description:** Partial weight bearing, commonly prescribed post-surgery in orthopaedics and traumatology, aims to stimulate healing while preventing overloading. Partial weight bearing refers to that the patient is only allowed to put 10 to 50% of their body weight on the affected limb.
The most commonly used method for instructing partial weight bearing with the patient is using a personal scale. This means that the patient can only exercise in a static position and the perceived load must be transferred to dynamic activities of daily living without further feedback. Previous reports indicate that patients often struggle to adhere to prescribed partial weight-bearing limits, frequently exceeding the specified load by 100% or more. However, when additional feedback was incorporated into training, approximately 90% of subjects successfully adhered to the partial load.
Portable or wearable measuring systems, such as pressure-sensitive insoles, offer feedback during dynamic tasks, facilitating a smoother transition to daily activities. Unlike the standard one-time instruction using a scale, these systems provide repeated feedback at each step, promoting a higher frequency of exercises. This aids patients in developing a better sense of the correct load.
This single-centre prospective randomized-controlled clinical trial aims to investigate the effectiveness of pressure insoles connected to a smartphone via Bluetooth and operated using an app in improving partial weight bearing adherence. The insoles provide direct feedback through acoustic and visual signals if the affected leg is overloaded, possibly leading to a lower proportion of steps over the load limit compared to those without feedback. Participants are randomized into either the intervention group (dynamic condition - plantar pressure insoles) or the control group (static condition - standard one-off instruction using a scale).
The primary objective is to determine whether the proportion of steps exceeding the weight bearing limit is lower in the intervention group compared to the control group 2 weeks after surgery. Secondary objectives include assessing subjective ratings of the permitted load, perceived pain, and mobility. Additionally, the trial hypothesizes that patients using the insoles can estimate applied load more accurately. The intervention group will also provide feedback on the usability of the app and insoles.
The results of this trial will contribute to enhancing postoperative treatment of patients undergoing orthopaedic surgery, thereby improving treatment outcomes and optimizing therapy regimens.

**Type:** EXPERIMENTAL
### Interventions
#### Intervention 1
**Arm Group Labels:**
- Control group
**Description:** The permitted weight is demonstrated to the patient once using a scale in the static position. The patient repeatedly places the foot with the permitted weight on a scale in order to develop a feeling for the load. After this exercise in the static position, the patient applies the perceived load to dynamic activities of daily living without receiving any feedback.
The instruction is given by a trained physiotherapist. Simultaneously with the instruction, the effective weight applied on the leg will be measured using instrumented insoles without any feedback.
**Name:** Standard one-off instruction using a scale
**Type:** OTHER
#### Intervention 2
**Arm Group Labels:**
- Intervention group
**Description:** The insoles are used in both static and dynamic conditions such as walking straight along the hallway or walking stairs if applicable. Initial instruction is given by a trained physiotherapist and will be continuously applied at home using the smartphone app for 5 out of 7 days per week during the first 2 weeks after surgery.
**Name:** Plantar pressure insoles
**Type:** DEVICE
### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** After 2 weeks of continuous use of the feedback-providing insoles by the intervention group, the adherence to load limits is evaluated at the follow-up visit. This assessment aims to determine if the intervention group adheres better to the prescribed weight-bearing limits compared to the control group, which did not receive feedback during this period. Both groups have the proportion of steps (%) exceeding the prescribed weight-bearing limit on the injured leg while walking assessed using instrumented insoles.
**Measure:** Proportion of steps (%) over of the prescribed weight bearing limit on the injured leg while walking, assessed with the instrumented insoles.
**Time Frame:** At 2 weeks post-surgery
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** To assess the pain level, the numeric analog scale is used. Patients are asked to rate their pain on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain while 10 indicates the worst possible pain.
**Measure:** Assessment of perceived pain
**Time Frame:** Baseline and at 2 weeks post-surgery
**Description:** To assess the physical activity, the UCLA Activity Scale(UCLA) is used The UCLA Activity Scale consists of questions related to different activities, and patients rate their ability to perform each activity on a scale from 1 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater activity levels.
**Measure:** Assessment of physical activity
**Time Frame:** Baseline and at 2 weeks post-surgery
**Description:** To assess the mobility, the Life Space Questionnaire and Parker Mobility Score are used. The former asks respondents to report on their frequency of movement and the distance traveled within various zones, such as within their home, neighborhood, and beyond. The latter evaluates an individual's ability to perform three basic mobility tasks. A score is given to each activity on a 4 point scale (0 - not at all, 1 - assistance of one person, 2 - with an aid, 3 - no difficulty and no aid) and then combined to provide a final score between 0 and 9, where 9 is independent with no aid in all three activities, and 0 is not able to carry out any of the activities.
**Measure:** Assessment of mobility
**Time Frame:** Baseline and at 2 weeks post-surgery
**Description:** The health-related quality of life is assessed using the EuroQol-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D).

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Thyroid nodule is a common condition that affects up to 60% of the population. There is an estimated 10% lifetime probability of developing a thyroid nodule. Although most thyroid nodules are benign, up to 10-15% can enlarge to cause compressive symptoms including neck pressure and discomfort, dysphagia, dyspnea, and dysphonia. The conventional treatment for these benign but problematic nodules has been thyroidectomy. Although generally a low risk operation, thyroidectomy is associated with some risk for recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, bleeding, infection, and need for thyroid hormone supplementation. Since the early 2000s, ultrasound-guided percutaneous thermal ablation has emerged as a potential alternative treatment to surgery for benign thyroid nodules. Of the myriad ablation methods, the most commonly used techniques are radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and microwave ablation (MWA). \[1-3\] A growing body of evidence shows that RFA is an effective treatment for benign solid thyroid nodules, toxic adenomas, and thyroid cysts resulting in overall volume reduction ranges of 40-80% at 1 year, with durable resolution of compressive and hyperthyroid symptoms. However, RFA is not without its limitations. Radiofrequency waves can be limited by the heat sink effect and tissue char leading to longer procedure times and potentially less optimal outcomes in larger, hypervascular, and/or more cystic nodules.
Microwave ablation (MWA) is another ablative technique that uses electromagnetic energy waves to cause tissue hyperthermia and coagulative necrosis. It generally causes higher ablation temperatures than RFA and is less subject to the heat sink effect, and therefore can facilitate more efficient ablation procedures. Current evidence comparing RFA versus MWA for thyroid ablation was limited and was either retrospective, non-randomized \[4-9\], under-powered, or with an unequal baseline. The results from these studies were also conflicting, suggesting suboptimal quality of evidence and bias due to non-standardized technique of ablation across studies. To date, there is no randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of RFA versus MWA for the treatment of benign thyroid nodules. Given the higher ablation temperatures, freedom from heat sink effect, and no influence from impedance changes during ablation, MWA may achieve different treatment efficacy.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate photodynamic therapy and photobiomodulation in the periodontitis treatment. To evaluate the clinical and microbiological response of conventional periodontal treatment associated with photodynamic therapy and photobiomodulation with red or infrared laser.
Participants will receive periodontal treatment carried out with the use 0.005% methylene blue and laser therapy (photodynamic therapy), associated with conventional periodontal treatment, as well as the use of photobiomodulation with red or infrared laser associated with conventional periodontal treatment in participants with periodontitis. So, twenty periodontitis patients will be selected and separated in two groups compared with placebo. Clinical and microbiological parameters will be evaluated at baseline and 3 months after periodontal treatment: plaque Index, bleeding on probe, probing depth, gingival recession and clinical attachment level.
**Detailed Description:** Periodontitis is a chronic, inflammatory and multifactorial disease, caused by an interaction between debiotic biofilm and its products and an exacerbated host response, leading to the progressive destruction of the supporting periodontium (bone, cement and periodontal ligament), causing loss of clinical attachment. and radiographic, bleeding on probing and periodontal pocket formation. Periodontal disease has a high prevalence and is one of the main causes of edentulism, with a great negative impact on chewing function, aesthetics and quality of life related to oral health. It is, therefore, considered a serious public health problem.
Conventional periodontal therapy consists of scaling and root planing (SRP) and control of supragingival plaque, but in some cases it has been shown to be ineffective in treating periodontitis, especially in difficult to access areas such as furcations and deep pockets. These cases benefit from adjuvant therapies, such as laser therapy, to help heal periodontal tissues, reduce microorganisms and improve clinical parameters.
Photobiomodulation and photodynamic therapy have been widely applied in the treatment of periodontal disease, due to their clinical, cellular and bactericidal effects. When associated with conventional periodontal therapy, its benefits increase, promoting a significant reduction in probing depth, number of deep pockets and bleeding. Furthermore, significant reduction of periodontopathogens and Candida albicans can be observed in the literature after photobiomodulation and photodynamic therapy.
Despite the benefits found when different laser therapy protocols are used in periodontal treatment, due to the lack of studies with high methodological quality and weak evidence in the existing literature, more studies are needed to prove their effects, establish appropriate protocols and evaluate the antimicrobial potential in periodontopathogens, which remains debatable, as recent systematic reviews point out.
The direct benefits of this study are the treatment of periodontal disease for the participants and for the scientific community to indicate new forms of periodontal therapy using different protocols of laser therapy associated with periodontal instrumentation. All tooth pocket sites in all groups will receive treatment.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study investigates the effect of Colchicine in preventing heart structure changes following ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Through a clinical trial involving patients requiring coronary intervention, we explore how Colchicine can reduce inflammation and fibrosis, two crucial factors influencing heart failure post-heart attack. The outcomes are expected to offer new insights into post-heart attack treatments to prevent heart failure.
**Detailed Description:** This clinical trial, a prospective, focuses on patients with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) requiring Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) within 12 hours of onset. The study aims to control bias effectively through randomization, evenly distributing confounding factors across two groups. Patients, unknown to both researchers and themselves whether receiving Colchicine or a placebo, will undergo reperfusion therapy and optimal medicinal treatment according to the latest guidelines. The study population includes all STEMI patients in three cities in East Java (Jember, Malang, Tulungagung), selected through purposive sampling. The independent variable is Colchicine administration, while dependent variables include ventricular remodeling assessed by Left Ventricular End-Diastolic Volume (LVEDV) via echocardiography, serum levels of caspase-1, TGF-β, NT pro BNP and Galectin-3. All patients receive standard medical treatment pre-PCI, including aspirin and antiplatelet drugs, with post-PCI Optical Medical Treatment (OMT) following the latest guidelines.
The trial is randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled, with participants divided into four groups: early PCI with Colchicine or placebo, and STEMI without reperfusion, receiving either Colchicine or placebo. This setup allows for a comprehensive comparison across different patient management strategies, exploring Colchicine's potential benefits in post-AMI care and its effects on key inflammatory and fibrotic markers.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study aims to incorporate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-minimal residual disease (MRD) to personalize the administration of consolidation toripalimab therapy in resected stage IB-IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after adjuvant therapy. Toripalimab is a humanized monoclonal antibody for human programmed cell death protein 1. Toripalimab was approved as a consolidation treatment after perioperative therapy in combination with chemotherapy for resectable stage III NSCLC.
**Detailed Description:** Most patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are managed with surgery, follow by standard-of-care adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy. However, postoperative recurrence rates remain high. Recent years, the role of checkpoint inhibitors has been proven to be effective in patients with advanced NSCLC, and even in patients with resectable NSCLC. Emerging data supports the use of consolidation checkpoint inhibitors therapy in localized NSCLC. Based on the results from Neotorch trial, consolidation toripalimab therapy led to a significant improvement in event-free survival for patients with resectable NSCLC. However, not all patients may benefit from consolidation therapy. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has emerged as a promising biomarker for early detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) in cancer surveillance. There is a critical need to identify MRD after curative therapies to determine which patients may benefit from consolidation toripalimab therapy. The aim of this study is to explore whether observation follow-up for patients with negative ctDNA after adjuvant therapy has a non-inferior prognosis for patients with positive ctDNA and received consolidation toripalimab therapy. This study aims to incorporate ctDNA-MRD to personalize the administration of consolidation toripalimab therapy for completely resected stage IB-IIIA NSCLC (without EGFR or ALK alterations for nonsquamous NSCLC).

3. Determine whether disruption of conscious visual detection, versus non-conscious visually-guided behavior have different thresholds for disruption with tFUS.
**Detailed Description:** Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is a new noninvasive way to stimulate the brain in an awake and alert person. Investigators do not yet have an easily observable way to know whether they are in the right brain location with the correct dose for that person. Investigators wonder if they can produce a transient change in someone's visual field, called a scotoma, and whether they can use that to determine the minimum tFUS dose for that person.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) will be used to evaluate the participants' anxiety outcome. This inventory, whose validity and reliability in Turkish was studied by Hisli (1989), consists of a total of 21 items and four interpreted sub-dimensions. The scoring of the scale is a four-point Likert type (0 = positive statements about depression; 3 = negative statements about depression). The total score that can be obtained from the scale varies between 0-63; 0-9 points indicate minimal depression, 10-16 points indicate mild depression, 17-29 points indicate moderate depression, and 30-63 points indicate severe depression.
**Measure:** Depression (Beck Depression Inventory)
**Time Frame:** 24 months
**Description:** The Infertility Stress Scale will be used to assess participants' infertility-related stress. Schmidt (2006) developed this scale in 1996. In our country, the validity and reliability of the scale was studied by Şahin Yılmaz (2012). This scale is a scale with a total of 14 items consisting of three sub-dimensions and answers are given in a Lykert type. Calculations per subdimensions requires a special formula for each subdimension. An increase in score is interpreted as an increase in stress.
**Measure:** Infertility-related stress (The Infertility Stress Scale)
**Time Frame:** 24 months
**Description:** Coping with Infertility Stress Scale: Developed by Schmidt (2006) in 1996. In our country, the validity and reliability of the scale was studied by Şahin Yılmaz (2012). This scale is a scale with a total of 19 items consisting of four sub-dimensions.
e Active-Struggle Coping, Passive-Struggle Coping, Passive-Ignoring Coping and Meaning-Based Coping Method. Each subscale score can be calculated seperately.
**Measure:** Coping Skills with Infertility Stress (Coping with Infertility Stress Scale)
**Time Frame:** 24 months
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** Beck Hopelessness Scale: Beck et al. (1974) to measure the individual's negative expectations for the future. Although the Turkish adaptation of this scale was made by Seber (1993), Durak (1994) examined the validity, reliability and factor structure of the scale in more detail. The scale consists of a total of 20 questions and the answers are given as true/false. The scale consists of three subscales: feelings about the future, loss of motivation, and expectations about the future. 1 point for incorrect answers to items 1-3-5-6-8-10-13-15 and 19, and 1 point for correct answers to items 2-4-7-9-11-14-16-17-18 and 20. and a total score between 0 and 20 can be obtained from the scale. The "arithmetic sum" found by calculation is accepted as the "despair score". The scale does not have a cut-off score; as the scores obtained from the scale increase, it is interpreted that the individual's level of hopelessness also increases.
**Measure:** Hopelessness
**Time Frame:** 24 months
**Description:** Web-Based Psychosocial Support Evaluation Form: It is an 8-question form created by researchers to evaluate opinions about the psychosocial support initiative applied to the web-based support program.
System Usability Scale: The Turkish validity and reliability of the scale developed by Brooke (1996) was tested by Demirkol and Şeneler (2018). "The scale consisting of ten items is a five-point Likert type (1=Strongly Disagree, 2=Disagree, 3=Undecided, 4=Agree, 5=Strongly Agree)." Items numbered 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 in the scale are scored positively, and items numbered 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 are reverse scored because they contain negative expressions. The answer "I strongly disagree" is calculated as "0" and the answer "I strongly agree" is calculated as 4 points. To obtain the total score, the score from each item is multiplied by 2.5 to obtain a score ranging from 0 to 100. A score between 65-70 is sufficient to show that the website is usable.
**Measure:** Effect of the Web-based study program
**Time Frame:** 24 months
### Eligibility Module

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The study aims to explore the effects of hormonal fluctuations throughout the menstrual cycle on social media use, brain architecture, neural reward processing and reward behavior, and affective status in adolescent girls. Additionally, it strives to compare the effects of exogenous and endogenous hormones on the above-mentioned aspects. For this purpose, the investigators will compare two main groups in the study: 1. Naturally cycling adolescent girls, 2. Adolescent girls using combined oral contraceptives. This study will combine self-report data via questionnaires, ecological data via Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA), endocrine data via blood collection, and neural data via fMRI assessment to enhance the understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms underlying social media use in adolescent girls. Furthermore, it seeks to elucidate whether there are vulnerable periods throughout the menstrual cycle when adolescent girls are especially prone to dysfunctional social media use and help to design more specific interventions as well as therapy.
**Detailed Description:** For each participant, there is a screening session, a month-long EMA assessment and two experimental fMRI sessions are planned.
After making sure the participants fill the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the investigators will invite them to the laboratory for a screening session (T0). In this session, the participants will provide written informed consent and assent in case of those under 18 years old and written, informed consent for those who are 18 year old. Furthermore, the participants will participate in a standardized clinical interview to screen for mental disorders (Kinder-DIPS). Subsequently, they will be informed about the study details. Finally, they will fill out questionnaires about personality, depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, gender identity and norms, mood, loneliness, social media disorder, internet use, social support, and fear of missing out.
Naturally cycling adolescent girls will join the two fMRI measurements (T1 \& T2) during the follicular and luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Adolescent girls using combined oral contraceptives will join the first fMRI measurement during the pill intake period, and the second measurement during the break period. The fMRI sessions will comprise of filling out questionnaires, fMRI measurements, and blood collection for hormonal assessment.
Questionnaires on depressive symptoms, state anxiety, mood, gender identity, self-esteem, loneliness, fear of missing out (FOMO), social media disorder, internet use, social support and social media use will be administered through RedCap platform. This will ensure the assessment of subjective, self-report data and its changes throughout the measurement time of one month.
The sequence of fMRI measurements incudes four main parts, namely anatomical scan, resting-state scan, Effort Allocation Task (EAT), and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). This protocol ensures the acquisition of the structural and functional data of the brain in the participants. The detailed protocol components are as follows:
1. Anatomical scan: This first sequence of the protocol ensures assessment and insight into the anatomy of the brain, thus providing structural data of the participants' brain. This will last approximately 8 minutes.
2. Resting-state scan: The next sequence involves participants watching a movie that was designed to improve imaging at rest for approximately 10 minutes. This sequence ensures insight into brain activity when no task is being performed and when the participant is at rest.
3. Effort Allocation Task (EAT): This next sequence aims to assess reward processing and reward behavior in the participants. During this task, participants have to exert physical effort on a grip force device when faced with monetary points at stake. There are two types of reward a participant can face; low and high reward. Additionally, there are two difficulty levels during the task, one being easier and the other more difficult. The payoff for the invested effort will be proportional to its duration. The task will last approximately 17 minutes.
4. Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI): During the final sequence, participants will undergo DTI assessment to ensure insight into white matter microstructure and connectivity. This will last approximately 7-8 minutes.
To thoroughly investigate the participants' experiences in their natural environments, Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) will be conducted. This will be done through an app called m-Path where participants will fill out daily questionnaires about social media use, self-esteem, premenstrual symptoms, and mood throughout one month. A daily questionnaire lasts approximately 10 minutes. This assessment will ensure data about subjective experiences with high ecological validity.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study involves collecting real-world data on body weight, body composition, cardiovascular parameters, and neurovegetative parameters using a connected scale in patients with severe obesity treated with Wegovy®.
**Detailed Description:** Obesity is a chronic disease associated with numerous co-morbidities. New treatments for obesity, notably GLP-1 (Glucagon-like peptide 1) analogs, have led to promising advances. Semaglutide 2.4 mg weekly subcutaneous injection, marketed under the brand name Wegovy®, was recently approved in France for weight loss in patients with severe obesity and at least one comorbidity. Several real-world studies have confirmed the effectiveness of semaglutide in reducing body weight and HbA1c. However, few studies have evaluated the kinetics and interindividual variability of changes in body weight and composition as well as cardiovascular health. There appears to be a need for a comprehensive real-world assessment of patients living with severe obesity receiving Wegovy®.
The TELE-SEMA project involves collecting real-world data on body weight, body composition, cardiovascular and neurovegetative parameters via connected scales in patients with severe obesity treated with Wegovy®.
The main objectives will be to assess inter-individual weight variability and explore the determinants that may influence weight loss, body composition and possible eating disorders.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study was conducted to investigate the effect of two different exercise protocols applied to healthy individuals on motor performance parameters. Forty-one healthy participants were included in the study. Participants were divided into 2 groups (wrist proprioceptive exercise group, general exercise group) and attended exercise training targeting the hand and wrist for a total of 6 weeks. Before and after the exercises, sociodemographic evaluation, Quick Disability of Arm Shoulder and Hand questionnaire, pain assessment, grip strength measurement, weight transfer tolerance test, wrist joint position sense, Nelson hand reaction test, upper extremity Y balance test, lateral grip and tripod grip measurements, manual muscle testing, and surface electromyography analysis were evaluated in both groups.
**Detailed Description:** Healthy volunteers who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study upon agreement to participate. The participants were divided into two groups. One group received 6 weeks of general upper extremity exercises along with proprioceptive exercise training. The proprioceptive exercise training consisted of a 10-minute warm-up period including active and passive upper extremity exercises followed by 30 minutes of proprioceptive exercises. The exercise program progressed weekly, and exercises were performed in standardized positions. To ensure adherence to the exercises, they were recorded on video and sent to participants' phones. The second group performed general upper extremity exercises for 6 weeks. The reason for creating the second group was to eliminate the time-dependent effect of changes in electromyographic activation levels of muscles. Additionally, the bilateral effects of unilateral upper extremity exercise training are observed. Comparing the electromyographic activities of untrained healthy individuals at the end of the treatment may enhance the quality of data interpretation. However, other factors that increase the risk of error in evaluating distal motor performance of the upper extremity were also considered in our study. It is expected that the motor performance of the dominant side will be greater than that of the non-dominant side. However, the non-dominant side is more frequently used in daily activities, resulting in a higher frequency and intensity of daily life activities being loaded onto the dominant side. To reduce the potential error resulting from daily life activities, exercise training was given to the non-dominant side of the healthy individuals participating in our study. Detailed evaluations were performed on the individuals participating in the study, as described below. Evaluations were conducted twice, before starting the exercise program and after the 6-week exercise program.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this study is to explore the use of mid-infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) as a detection tool for endometriosis in urine.
**Detailed Description:** Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disease that is considered debilitating and multifactorial. Its diagnosis is invasive and can be prolonged due to non-specific symptoms and erroneous or late investigations, which can lead to delays and impair the provision of adequate treatment.
ATR-FTIR Spectroscopy is a non-invasive technique with the capability to identify the chemical composition and molecular changes of samples through its interaction with mid-infrared radiation. The aim of this work is to develop a rapid test for the detection of endometriosis in urine samples using spectroscopy and machine learning algorithms.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this observational study is to learn about blood pressure response to the vasopressor drug vasopressin in people with septic shock.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Are the levels of molecules showing communication between cells different between people whose blood pressure improves and people whose blood pressure does not improve when given a vasopressor medication?
* Are measurements found on echocardiography (heart ultrasound) different between people whose blood pressure improves and people whose blood pressure does not improve when given a vasopressor medication?
Participants will be asked to contribute one or two blood samples. Participants who are ordered the drug vasopressin will contribute two blood samples. Both samples will be about two tablespoons for a total of about four tablespoons. One sample will be drawn before starting vasopressin infusion and the second sample will be drawn between one and six hours after starting the vasopressor drug infusion. At the same time points, advanced echocardiography pictures will be taken. Participants who are not ordered the drug vasopressin and only ordered the drug norepinephrine will contribute only one sample. At the time the sample is collected, advanced echocardiography pictures will be taken. This research also involves analyzing data obtained during the participant's hospital stay.
**Detailed Description:** Septic shock mortality remains high at 33% in North America; current clinical predictors of poor outcomes in septic shock are suboptimal. In addition to antibiotics and intravenous fluids, vasoactive agents are initiated to restore effective tissue perfusion. Norepinephrine (NE) is the recommended first-line vasopressor, but adjunctive arginine vasopressin is used in over one-third of patients to improve blood pressure or decrease NE dosage. However, less than half of vasopressin recipients have a clinically-apparent hemodynamic response (defined as a decrease in NE dosage at 6 hours after vasopressin initiation). Vasopressors, particularly norepinephrine, are known to be immune modulators. Further, each vasopressor has its own unique effect on a patient's hemodynamic profile as assessed by echocardiography. In the current study, the investigators seek to clarify the link between vasopressin, immune response, and hemodynamic profile. The central goal of this proposal is to identify "vasopressin response" as an easily-identifiable bedside indicator of a distinct septic shock subphenotype.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study was designed as a prospective observational study.
**Detailed Description:** In this study, it was planned to evaluate the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on gastric residual volume in patients who will undergo outpatient pediatric surgery with laryngeal mask application on the specified dates. Patients aged 1-11 years, ASA I-II and undergoing outpatient lower abdominal and genitourinary surgery were included in the study. Since the use of positive end-expiratory pressure varies in our clinic depending on the anesthesiologist preference, the effect of this application on gastric volume will also be evaluated primarily by recording images with gastric ultrasonography at certain perioperative time periods. Secondarily, the effect of this positive end-expiratory pressure on mechanical ventilator parameters and airway pressures will be evaluated.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of therapeutic touch on patients' anxiety, vital signs and comfort levels during knee replacement surgery performed under local anesthesia.
The study will be completed with a total of 128 participants, including 64 experimental and 64 control participants.
As a randomization method, the simple randomization method will be used to ensure an equal number of samples in two groups, and patients will be assigned to the experimental and control groups. In the research, patients will be given verbal information about the research, and written informed consent will be obtained from the patients who accept it.
In the study, therapeutic touch was applied for 15-20 minutes during knee replacement surgery and the effect of this application on vital signs, anxiety level and comfort was evaluated.
**Detailed Description:** Knee replacement surgeries are a common treatment method for patients with problems such as pain and limitation of movement resulting from knee joint disorders. This type of surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia, allowing patients to lose consciousness during surgery. However, general anesthesia may have some risks and complications. For this reason, local anesthesia has become increasingly popular.
Local anesthesia is a method of anesthesia used to numb the surgical area. In this method, anesthesia is injected directly into the surgical area and the patient is awake and conscious throughout the surgery. Local anesthesia may have fewer side effects and complications compared to general anesthesia. However, the effects of emotional factors such as stress, anxiety and discomfort experienced by patients during surgeries performed under local anesthesia are still poorly understood .
The human body is surrounded by an aura and open energy fields. It is reported that when these energy fields are balanced, the individual is healthy, and when they are irregular, the individual experiences health problems. Asymmetric energy fields can be balanced using the therapeutic touch method and treatment becomes easier. In this way, the person regains his health or can be helped to regain his health. Nursing theorist Martha Rogers supports this statement. Rogers defined human beings as an open system with a complex and interactive energy field covering the entire universe. It is assumed that the energy surrounding humans is in wave form and that changes in the human body are controlled by these energy fluctuations. If the person has health problems, this manifests itself in the form of energy blockages or rhythm disorders. By correcting these energy rhythm disorders discovered by the nurse with the therapeutic touch method, the person's health problem can be treated. In recent years, there has been increasing evidence that alternative approaches, such as therapeutic touch, have positive effects on surgical outcomes. Therapeutic touch is a method that aims to provide relaxation, calming and healing through physical contact. This method can reduce patients' stress levels, relieve pain, and increase their overall comfort level. However, there are limited studies on the effect of therapeutic touch on vital signs during knee replacement surgery performed under local anesthesia.
Surgeries are widely used as a method of treating various health problems that require medical treatment. Knee prosthesis surgeries are one of the frequently used surgical interventions in the treatment of painful and limiting diseases of the knee joint. Although such surgeries have the potential to significantly improve individuals' mobility and quality of life, the stress, anxiety and physical discomfort that may occur during and after the surgery can be a significant source of concern for patients.
Anxiety is a common psychological reaction before and after surgical interventions and is an important factor affecting the surgical process. Patients may experience increased levels of anxiety when faced with uncertainty about the results of surgery, possible complications, and the recovery process. The importance of this situation is of great importance in terms of the success of the surgery and the patients' ability to better manage the postoperative period.
Anxiety negatively affects the patient's comfort level after surgery and can prolong the recovery process. Lack of comfort can lead to increased physical and emotional stress caused by surgery. It is important to note that because therapeutic touch has the potential to increase patients' relaxation, stress reduction, and overall comfort level, research has also been conducted in this area. However, there is no definitive information about the effect of therapeutic touch on the comfort level during knee replacement surgery performed under local anesthesia.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of therapeutic touch on patients' vital signs, anxiety and comfort level during knee replacement surgery performed under local anesthesia. This study aims to offer an alternative approach to improve patients' quality of life by continuing to improve the results of surgeries performed under local anesthesia. This study aims to fill the gap in this field by investigating the effect of therapeutic touch on vital signs, anxiety and comfort level during knee replacement surgery performed under local anesthesia. The findings may guide clinical practice in providing an alternative approach to improve surgical outcomes and reduce discomfort experienced by patients. It may also provide basic information to evaluate the feasibility of therapeutic touch in other surgical procedures under local anesthesia.
This study was conducted as an experimental randomized controlled study. This method was preferred because it allows the situations and attitudes of the individuals in the group selected as a sample, regarding a phenomenon or event, and to describe the phenomena and events in their own conditions and as they are. In addition, in randomized controlled studies, the factors that cause events and situations and the degree of influence of these factors can be determined. In the study, therapeutic touch was applied for 15-20 minutes during knee replacement surgery and the effect of this application on vital signs, anxiety level and comfort was evaluated. The hypotheses created in the research are listed below; The research was conducted in the orthopedics and traumatology room in the operating room department of Atatürk University Training and Research Hospital between September 2023 and June 2024.
The population of the research consists of patients who had knee replacement surgery between September 2023 and February 2024. The sample of the research consists of patients who meet the inclusion criteria between the specified dates. Cohen's standard effect sizes were used as reference in the power analysis. In this case, in this study, for the t test in independent groups where the effect of therapeutic touch during knee prosthesis surgery will be compared on vital signs, anxiety and comfort levels, if the study is conducted with a total of 128 participants in two groups with 64 participants in each group, 80% confidence interval is 95% at a significance level of 0.05. It has been determined that power can be achieved. As a randomization method, the "simple randomization method" was used to ensure an equal number of samples in two groups, and the patients were assigned to the experimental and control groups. In the study, patients were given verbal information about the research, and written informed consent was obtained from the patients who agreed.
Four different forms were used to collect data in the study. The Anxiety and Comfort Scale, which was determined as the data collection tool in the study, was chosen by the researcher as it was deemed suitable for the purpose. Analyzes were carried out with the data obtained to test the validity and reliability of the selected scale. In order to ensure that the data collection tools do not pose an ethical problem, people with expertise on the subject were consulted and it was ensured that they would not cause any problems. However, the scale questions were reviewed in detail by the researcher and the consultant, and since an application was actually made in the form of a Likert scale, leaving the selection decision entirely to the participants refutes the idea that it is a manipulation. The forms used to collect data are listed below;
1. Patient Introduction Form
2. Vital Signs Record Form
3. Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Scale
4. Perianesthesia Comfort Scale (PCS) In order to conduct the research, firstly, approval was obtained from the Atatürk University Faculty of Medicine Ethics Committee and institutional permission was obtained from the hospital where the research was conducted. Verbal consent was obtained from the patients before data collection, and data collection forms were collected by the researcher in the orthopedics and traumatology room in the operating room department by face-to-face interview. Patients who accepted the study and met the criteria were included in the experimental/control group by randomization.
In patients included in the experimental group; On the day of surgery, patients who met the research criteria were met, the purpose of the study was explained, and their written consent was obtained. The Patient Introduction Form and the Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Scale were administered in the patient room using face-to-face interview technique. When the patient was taken to the operating table, the Vital Signs Record Form was filled out. Then, therapeutic touch was applied for 15-20 minutes during the surgery. After the procedure was completed, the Vital Signs Record Form, Spielberg State Anxiety Scale and Perianesthesia Comfort Scale (PCS) were administered.
In patients included in the control group; On the day of surgery, patients who met the research criteria were met, the purpose of the study was explained, and their written consent was obtained. The Patient Introduction Form and the Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Scale were administered in the patient room using face-to-face interview technique. When the patient was taken to the operating table, the Vital Signs Record Form was filled out. After the procedure is completed, the Vital Signs Record Form, Spielberg State Anxiety Scale and Perianesthesia Comfort Scale (PCS) will be administered. No procedure was applied to the control group.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** The survey form, created by the researcher by scanning the literature on the subject, consists of a total of 13 questions including questions about gender, age, place of residence, education, status, profession, marital status, and total knee replacement surgery.
**Measure:** Patient Introduction Form
**Time Frame:** up to 24 weeks
**Description:** An observation form was used to observe the patients in the experimental and control groups to whom therapeutic touch was applied during surgery. This form was used to record the duration of therapeutic touch, respiration, oxygen saturation, pulse, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure.
**Measure:** Vital Signs Record Form
**Time Frame:** up to 24 weeks
**Description:** There are 4 different options in the section that the individuals to whom the scale is applied will mark. These options consist of "not at all", "somewhat", "a lot" and "completely" in order to determine the intensity of the expressed behaviors and emotions. The total score obtained from both scales varies between 20-80. High scores indicate high anxiety levels, low scores indicate low anxiety levels. There are two types of statements in the State-Trait Anxiety Scale. Direct expressions express negative emotions, while inverted expressions express positive emotions. The reversed expressions in the State Anxiety Scale are items 1, 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 19 and 20. The reversed expressions in the Trait Anxiety Scale constitute items 26, 27, 30, 33, 36 and 39. After finding the total weights of direct and reverse expressions separately, the total weight score of reverse expressions is subtracted from the total weight score obtained for direct expressions.
**Measure:** Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Scale
**Time Frame:** Before and after surgery
**Description:** The scale consists of 24 items that reflect the individual's general thought process before and after the surgical intervention and question his/her self-conception and feelings. Each statement in the scale has a Likert-type scoring ranging from 1 to 6, from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree". The response patterns of the scale, which consists of positive and negative items, are given in mixed order. 12 of the statements are positive (1.5, 6, 11, 14, 16, 18, 19, 20, 21, 23, 24), 12 are negative (2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 15, 17, 22); Negative statements are reversed in scoring. Accordingly, in positive statements, a high score (6) indicates high comfort, a low score (1) indicates low comfort, and in negative items, a low score (1) indicates high comfort and a high score (6) indicates low comfort.
**Measure:** Perianesthesia Comfort Scale (PCS)

**Brief Summary:** 1. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between peripheral circulating serum soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (sST2) levels and inflammatory biomarkers in patients with heart failure
2. Additive role of sST2 to NPs in of heart failure patients
**Detailed Description:** Heart failure (HF), a complex and heterogeneous medical syndrome characterized by structural and functional cardiac abnormalities and hemodynamic disruptions, represents the end-stage manifestation of numerous cardiovascular disorders . HF is categorized into three groups based on the measurement of the left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF) according to the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Guidelines issued in 2021: HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF, LVEF ≤ 40%), HF with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF, LVEF 41-49%), and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF, LVEF ≥ 50%) .
Quantifying concentrations of circulating biomarkers plays a major role in most cardiovascular (CV) diseases, including (HF) .
An ideal biomarker in HF should be measured non-invasively and at low cost, highly sensitive to allow for the early detection of the disease .
N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) released by cardiac muscle tissue in response to abnormal volume load is an established indicator for the diagnosis and prognosis of HF .
However, there are important limitations to natriuretic peptide (NP) testing in HF .
Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (sST2) is the circulating form of the interleukin-33 membrane receptor released in response to inflammation, fibrosis in various organs, and myocardium stress .
Soluble (s)ST2 has been proposed as a useful biomarker for heart failure (HF) patient management. Myocardial damage or mechanical stress stimulate sST2 release. ST2 competes with a membrane bound receptor (ST2 ligand, or ST2L) for interleukin-33 (IL-33) binding, inhibiting the effects induced by the ST2L/IL-33 interaction so that excessive sST2 may contribute to myocardial fibrosis and ventricular remodelling.
So biomarkers such as NT-proBNP and sST2 could potentially be used as surrogates for clinical outcomes in patients with HF and may be useful in monitoring disease progression and assessing the response to therapy .

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Migraine is a frequent and debilitating neurologic disorder. It is more frequent in women, and more prevalent in patients with autoimmune and/or inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Crohn's disease (CD), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and endometriosis, whereas patients with long standing type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) - an autoimmune but non inflammatory disease - seem to be less affected compared to the general population. Despite new migraine prevention treatments, a large number of patients remain unresponsive to currently available anti-migraine therapy and migraine pathophysiology remains unclear. Several peptides (calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide-38 (PACAP-38), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)) and hormones (estrogens, prolactin) and the immune system play an important role in migraine pathophysiology. Among T lymphocytes, regulatory T (Treg) cells suppress inflammation. Studies have evidenced higher levels of inflammatory molecules (cytokines) in migraine patients and have suggested decreased proportions of Treg cells in migraine, as well as in MS, RA, CD and SLE, whereas inflammation declines and Treg levels seem increased in long-standing T1DM. Inflammation, which participates in migraine pain, seems to be a common factor for migraine and these diseases. However, these studies display conflicting results and further investigation is required to better understand the mechanisms behind migraine.
In this study, the investigators will compare Treg levels, as well as identify Treg subpopulations and measure cytokine levels in migraine and migraine-free participants with and without an autoimmune/inflammatory disorder (MS, RA, CD, SLE, T1DM and endometriosis).
**Detailed Description:** Migraine is the 6th most frequent disease (14% of the population) and the second leading cause of disability worldwide. From puberty and onward, migraine is 2 to 3 times more frequent in women, which also suffer from more severe attacks. Migraine is also up to twice as prevalent in patients suffering from autoimmune or inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Crohn disease (CD), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and endometriosis, whereas patients with long standing type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) - an autoimmune but non inflammatory disease - seem to be less affected compared to the general population.
Despite the identification of the role of peptides such as CGRP in migraine pathophysiology and the development of targetted anti-CGRP treatments, many patients remain unresponsive and the mechanisms behind migraine are still unclear.
The trigemino-vascular system is involved in the perception of migraine pain. Migraine occurs with trigemino-cervical neuron sensitization, leading to peptide secretion (such as CGRP, PACAP-38 and VIP), which induce neurogenic inflammation that is responsible for vasodilation, capillary leakage, oedema and further sensitization of the trigemino-vascular system, leading to amplified perception of migraine pain. CGRP, PACAP-38 and VIP infusions all induce migraine attacks in migraine patients, and only mild or no headache in healthy volunteers.
Sex hormones, prolactin and insulin are also involved in migraine pathophysiology, and the immune system, through cytokine production and immune cell dysregulations seems to also play a role in the pathogenesis of migraine. Both are closely related as sex hormone levels may have an influence on the levels of certain immune cell subtypes. Several pro-inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interferon (IFN)-gamma and interleukin (IL)-6) were shown to be elevated in migraine patients but also inflammatory diseases such as MS and endometriosis compared to controls and are associated with migraine pathophysiology. Inflammation seems to be a common factor for migraine and these diseases. However, these studies provide conflicting results and further investigation is needed to better understand the role of inflammation in migraine pathophysiology.
Among T lymphocytes, regulatory T (Treg) cells regulate inflammation by suppressing effector T cells through several suppressive mechanisms such as IL-10 secretion or the hydrolysis of pro-inflammatory and nociceptive adenosine triphosphate (ATP) into anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive adenosine by cluster of differentiation (CD) 39 and 73 enzymes on the Treg cell surface. Recent studies have suggested decreased Treg proportions in migraine patients, particularly CD 39 and CD 73-positive Treg cells, whereas Treg cells were shown to be increased in T1DM patients. This suggests the role of Treg cells in migraine, but further studies are needed.
In this study, the investigators aim to compare Treg levels, as well as identify Treg subpopulations and measure cytokine levels in migraine and migraine-free participants with and without an autoimmune/inflammatory disorder (MS, RA, CD, SLE, T1DM and endometriosis). This will provide better understanding of migraine pathophysiology and lead to the development of targeted and personalized treatment strategies, according to the immune pain profile and associated inflammatory diseases of migraine patients.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this clinical trial is to identify sex-specific biomarkers that confer greater susceptibility for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) and differentiate how treatment response varies by sex in people with Alcohol Use Disorder.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* How does trauma affect emotion regulation, inflammation, and limbic function, and what are the sex-dependent effects of NTX (Naltrexone) on these aspects?
* What is the mechanism of Naltrexone (NTX), and how does it potentially moderate reductions in alcohol use through changes in or interactions between emotion regulation, inflammation, or limbic system function?
Participants will
* Be consented and will undergo comprehensive screening for eligibility criteria
* Complete behavioral assessments and neuropsychological assessments, as well as neurocognitive assessments and neuroimaging measures
* Provide urine samples for a urine drug screen (UDS) and urine pregnancy test (for women), and have blood and a cheek swab collected and stored in the repository
* Take a study drug once daily for 12 weeks and track drug usage and effects in a study journal
* Undergo weekly assessment calls and bi-weekly medical follow-up safety exams
Researchers will compare naltrexone to placebo in AUD to see if naltrexone is effective in reducing alcohol cravings and promoting abstinence.
Researchers will also compare baseline measures between AUD and Healthy Controls.
**Detailed Description:** A twelve-week randomized placebo-controlled trial of naltrexone (NTX) will be conducted in one hundred people with alcohol use disorder (AUD), fifty of which will be women. Fifty healthy participants will serve as controls for baseline measures. We will use validated measures to comprehensively assess trauma exposure including: military sexual trauma (MST), physical or sexual assault, combat exposure, intimate partner violence, and other traumatic events. Emotion regulation will be assessed with the Cognitive Emotion Regulation questionnaire and Difficulty in Emotion Regulation scale. Functional magnetic resonance imaging at rest and during an emotion regulation task will assess limbic system connectivity and reactivity. Inflammation will be indexed with a multiplex panel assay of peripheral inflammatory markers. Days of alcohol use and average weekly standard drinks will be assessed at each time-point.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Drinking days and average number of weekly standard drinks will be measured at baseline and at follow-up
**Measure:** Change from baseline in alcohol use (number of drinking days, amount used per day)
**Time Frame:** Baseline and Week 12
**Description:** Plasma samples will be analyzed using a customized, high-sensitivity magnetic bead multiplex assay Luminex system. Samples will be prepared and analyzed to measure peripheral immune markers: interleukin (IL)-1-beta, IL-6, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1 and neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM). Intra-and inter-assay coefficients of variation, as indices of within-and between-assay precision, respectively, will be calculated to examine the reliability of cytokine measurements.
**Measure:** Changes from baseline in peripheral immune biomarkers associated with inflammation
**Time Frame:** Baseline and Week 12
**Description:** Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) will be used to assess changes in limbic system connectivity. Correlation coefficients of low-frequency oscillations in the fMRI blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) signal between regions and between large-scale resting-state networks in the brain will be z-score transformed. A score of 0 indicates no change while higher or lower scores indicate increased or decreased connectivity, respectively.
**Measure:** Changes in limbic functional connectivity
**Time Frame:** Baseline and Week 12
**Description:** The task will assess emotional reactivity and regulation to negative and stressful images. Each event (cue, neutral-look, negative-look, negative-reappraise and rating scale of negative affect) will be modeled using a canonical hemodynamic response function with a time derivative. The contrasts of interest will be Negative-look vs Neutral-look and Negative-look vs Negative-reappraise. Amygdala BOLD signal estimates will be extracted to calculate percent-change.
**Measure:** Changes from baseline in BOLD signal brain activation during an emotion regulation fMRI task
**Time Frame:** Baseline and Week 12
**Description:** DERS is a 36-item self-report questionnaire scored on a 5-point scale from 1 (almost never) to 5 (almost always), with total score ranging from 36 to 180. It measures emotion regulation difficulties across six dimensions: 1. Non-acceptance of emotional responses, 2. Difficulties engaging in goal-directed behavior, 3. Impulse control difficulties, 4. Lack of emotional awareness, 5. Limited access to effective emotion regulation strategies, 6. Lack of emotional clarity. Higher scores suggest greater difficulties in emotion regulation.
**Measure:** Changes from baseline in emotion regulation assessed with the Difficulty in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS)
**Time Frame:** Baseline and Week 12
**Description:** CERQ is a 36-item self-report questionnaire that identifies cognitive emotion regulation or cognitive coping strategies used after having experienced negative events or situations. Scores can identify individual strategies to compare with normed scores from various populations. The nine cognitive emotion regulation strategies are measured on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 to 5, with scores being obtained by calculating the mean scores belonging to a particular subscale. Higher subscale scores indicate greater use of a specific cognitive strategy.
**Measure:** Changes from baseline in emotion regulation assessed with the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ)
**Time Frame:** Baseline and Week 12
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** The Brief Alcohol Craving Scale, a 10-item self-report assessment of craving, will be used. Participants will be prompted with a statement regarding alcohol cravings and will choose an answer ranging between "strongly disagree" and "strongly agree."
**Measure:** Change from baseline in craving (include craving measures/questionnaires)
**Time Frame:** Baseline and Week 12
**Description:** Department of Veterans Affairs Military Sexual Trauma Screening consists of two questions used nationally within the Veterans Heath Administration (VHA) to screen for MST. Response options are yes, no, or decline to respond.
Trauma Assessment for Adults (TAA) is a 17-item self-report on combat exposure, physical or sexual assault, surviving serious accidents and other threatening life events.
Life Stressor Checklist-Revised (LSC-R) includes self-report measures relevant to women such as abortion or caregiver duties, in addition to 30 life events related to natural disasters, physical or sexual assault, death of a relative, incarceration and financial hardships.
Childhood Maltreatment questionnaire is 70 items in five dimensions: emotional, physical, and sexual abuse, and physical and emotional neglect. A 7-point scale will be used to indicate level of trauma
**Measure:** Differences in baseline trauma exposure (composite score)
**Time Frame:** Baseline and Week 12

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This is an retrospective and prospective (ambispective) study with data collection from volunteer patients who passed an MMPI-2-RF (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2-Restructured form) questionnaire in the preoperative phase of a bariatric surgery project.
The evolution of their BMI will be correlated to psychological dimensions collected in patient questionnaires, before and after bariatric surgery.
The presence of possible risk factors such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, quality of life, satisfaction and the perception of body, could make it possible to establish adapted therapies before surgery, in order to attenuate or eliminate the presence of these factors, and improve BMI evolution and bariatric surgery success.
**Detailed Description:** A first phase of data collection will concern data from the MMPI-2-RF questionnaire as well as clinical data, collected during preoperative consultations.
For the second phase, post-operative data will be collected, during a routine follow-up consultation in the nutrition Department, where specific psychological questionnaires are taken by patients.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT) is defined as the minimum force applied to an area that is perceived as pain. PPT is considered an objective measurement tool to assess pain levels. Studies have assessed the difference in pain levels between clear aligners and fixed appliances using subjective pain scales. No study has utilized PPT to evaluate the difference in pain between aligners and fixed braces at different time points. This study will aim to compare the self- reported and experimental pain perception between the clear aligner and fixed appliance therapies during the phase of crown alignment and to assess how long pain is perceived in the following five days from the adjustment of the appliance.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** In this study, the investigators compared spinal anesthesia under ketofol (ketamine-propofol combination) sedation with general anesthesia in terms of intraoperative and postoperative hemodynamics, respiratory parameters and cost in patients undergoing umbilical hernia operation. the investigator aimed to provide the most appropriate and hemodynamically stable option for the patient, to decrease the complication rates and to reduce the associated costs.
**Detailed Description:** This study was carried out at the Ministry of Health Ankara City Hospital Operating Room, after receiving ethics committee approval.Preoperative evaluation was performed before the operation in cases undergoing elective umbilical hernia surgery.Complications and side effects are explained in detail.Verbal and written consents were obtained from the subjects who agreed to participate in the study.In patients undergoing umbilical hernia surgery, general anesthesia and spinal anesthesia under propofol and ketamine (ketamine-propofol combination) sedation were compared in terms of intraoperative and postoperative hemodynamics, aldrete score, pain score, respiratory parameters, and cost. The patients, who had fasted for 8 hours before the operation, were taken to the operating room without premedication.
In all cases, a peripheral venous catheter cannulated on the dorsal part of the hand (20G, Plusflon i.v. Cannula, India) .Standard monitoring was applied.
Group1. As premedication 0.03mg/kg midazolam was administered . For spinal anesthesia, 15 mg heavy-bupivacaine, sedation was provided with ketofol.
ketamine:propofol mixture was prepared as 1:1 5mg/ml propofol and 5mg/ml ketamine
1 mg/kg ketofol administered i.v. Group2 . As premedication 0.03mg/kg midazolam was administered.In general anesthesia to all patients after induction 3 mg/kg propofol, 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium and 1 mcg/kg fentanyl Bispectral index and non-invasive blood pressure was monitored, a urinary catheter was placed. Anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane and fentanyl to keep BIS values between 40-60.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Teicoplanin is an antibiotic belonging to the class of glycopeptides, in use since 1986. Like its older "classmate" vancomycin, it inhibits protein synthesis by interfering with the synthesis of peptidoglycan, and is active on Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphilococcus spp (including MRSA), Streptococcus spp and Enterococcus spp (both faecalis and faecium).
Teicoplanin is characterized by poor gastrointestinal absorption, which requires intramuscular or intravenous administration; has a binding to plasma proteins greater than 90%; and a high volume of distribution. It reaches high levels in deep tissues (bone, abdomen, lung, kidney, heart) on the contrary it has poor penetration at the central nervous system level; it is approved for the treatment of skin and soft tissue infections, osteo-articular infections, pneumonia, endocarditis, complicated urinary tract infections, peritonitis and bacteremia associated with the aforementioned clinical conditions. Furthermore, teicoplanin has a markedly long half-life (between 30 and 180h) which allows it to be administered even every 48-72h. Dose and duration of treatment should be adjusted according to the location and severity of the infection and based on patient characteristics such as renal function. The possibility of carrying out therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) allows maintaining plasma levels adequate for the treatment of deep infections (e.g. \>20 mg/l for endocarditis) and avoiding overdose.
Thanks to the possibility of administering teicoplanin on a three-weekly schedule, patient access to hospital is further reduced.
The investigators therefore propose a retrospective study to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of teicoplanin therapy according to a three-weekly scheme by comparing its use in the treatment of deep infections (deep seated infections - DSIs) and superficial infections (non-deep seated infections - NDSIs).

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study is designed to assess the impact of injecting sodium hyaluronic acid versus a chitosan-hyaluronate hybrid gel into the upper compartment of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) as a treatment for anterior disc displacement without reduction. The study will include patients diagnosed with Stage III or IV TMJ internal derangement (anterior disc displacement without reduction), as classified by Wilkes, with diagnoses confirmed through clinical symptoms and MRI evaluations. Participants will be randomly divided into two groups, both undergoing TMJ arthroscopy. In the first group, 2 ml of chitosan-hyaluronic acid hybrid gel will be injected into the affected joints, whereas in the second group, 2 ml of hyaluronic acid (HA) will be administered. The study will compare and analyze outcomes in both groups, focusing on pain during TMJ function, clicking sounds, the extent of maximum mouth opening, and maximum lateral jaw movement.
**Detailed Description:** This study will be a prospective randomized controlled clinical study on a convenience sample of patients who will be selected from the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dental Medicine, Suez University. Patients selected are whom will be diagnosed with TMJ internal derangement (anterior disk displacement without reduction Stage III, Stage IV Wilkes classification) based on clinical symptoms and MRI evaluations. Inclusion criteria will be adults aged between 25 - 50 years old, sufficient clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data that could be obtained before and after the treatment. The exclusion criteria will be hematological or neurological diseases, inflammation or connective tissue diseases, head and neck malignancies, history of treatment of TMJ disease or history of craniofacial surgery not related to internal derangement treatment, insufficient clinical and MRI data.
Participants will be selected based on established criteria. A total sample size of 20 (10 in each group) was calculated to detect an effect size of about 1.33-1.34, with a power (1-β error) of 0.8 (80%) using a two-sided hypothesis test, with a significance level (α error) 0.05 for data \[13\]. All patients will undergo a preoperative clinical evaluation including Pain level on forced mouth opening using visual analogue scale (VAS), assessment of mean lateral jaw movements, assessment of TMJ clicking, assessment of maximum mouth opening (MMO), deviation of mandibular midline during mouth opening and closure. All patients will do a Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate the disc displacement.All patients will undergo conservative treatment as the first line of treatment in all TMJID cases. All patients will be under general anesthesia.
For both groups, the operation will be under GA and The skin surface of the pre-auricular region will be disinfected with povidone iodine solution. For both groups, TMJ arthroscopy will performed by the same TMJ arthroscopy surgeon. Lysis and lavage will be performed in the upper joint space in all cases based on the triangulation technique with an inferolateral approach. The arthroscopic procedure will include lysis of adhesions, lavage, manipulation, and debridement of the upper joint space. A 1.9-mm arthroscope with a video monitoring and recording system and a 2.2-mm protective cannula sheath will be used for TMJ arthroscopy. Ringer's lactate will be used as irrigation fluid. Both groups will receive the same arthroscopic treatments. In the first group, the injection of 2 ml of chitosan-hyaluronic acid hybrid gel into affected joints, while 2 ml of HA will be injected in to affected joints in the second group. Needles will be removed after the injection sites and covered its sites with gauze dressing. Postoperative care and instructions:
1. Medications:
Brufen\* as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) relieving muscle pain and swelling. Myofen\* as a muscle relaxant especially for people who grind or clench their teeth help to relax tight jaw muscles.
2. Application hot \& cold packs:
All patients will be instructed to apply an ice pack to the side of his face and temple area for about 10 minutes. Also, simple stretching exercises for his or her jaw should be done. Application a warm towel or pack to the side of his face for about 5 minutes five times daily for 4 days.
3. Soft diet:
Soft food such as yogurt, mashed potatoes, cheese, soup, fish, cooked fruits and vegetables, beans, and grains should be eaten. In addition, food should be cut into small pieces. Avoid hard and crunchy foods like hard rolls, raw carrots, thick and large foods that need your mouth to open wide to fit the foods. Also, chewy sticky foods (like caramels and taffy) avoided too for next 10 days.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Postoperative nausea and vomiting is one of the common postoperative complications. Studies have reported that without any antiemetic prevention treatment, the overall incidence of PONV in surgical operations is up to 20-30%, and the incidence of PONV in high-risk operations such as gynecological laparoscopy is higher. Postoperative nausea and vomiting can lead to perioperative complications and seriously affect the prognosis of patients. Although various preventive and therapeutic measures have been adopted in clinic, the incidence of perioperative nausea and vomiting is still high. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance to explore more effective and feasible methods to prevent the occurrence of PONV. Stellate ganglion block has been proved to be widely used in clinic and can play a positive role in multiple organs and systems of the whole body. In clinical work, stellate ganglion block is more widely used in the treatment of various pain, autonomic nerve disorders and other diseases. However, there are few clinical studies on whether stellate ganglion block can be used as an effective and feasible means to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting and the related mechanisms to prevent the possible occurrence of nausea and vomiting. Therefore, this project aims to explore the preventive effect of stellate ganglion block on postoperative nausea and vomiting in gynecological laparoscopic surgery patients, and to explore its possible mechanism.
**Detailed Description:** Postoperative nausea and vomiting is one of the most common postoperative complications second only to postoperative pain. Studies have reported that without any antiemetic prevention treatment, the overall incidence of PONV in surgical operations is up to 20-30%, and the incidence of PONV in high-risk patients such as gynecologic laparoscopy is higher. The pathogenesis of postoperative nausea and vomiting is very complex, including central, peripheral receptors and multiple nerve pathways. When peripheral receptors are stimulated, the signal passes through the afferent nerve to the vomiting center, causing nausea and vomiting. The emetic chemical receptors are rich in many receptors, which can directly feel various toxins, metabolites or drugs in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid, project signals to the nerve center and then spread to the cerebral cortex, causing nausea and vertigo, or transmit signals along the vagus nerve, glossopharyngeal nerve, spinal nerve, etc. to the digestive tract, diaphragm and abdominal wall muscles, resulting in the opening of the sphincter in the upper esophagus and strong contraction of the diaphragm. Abdominal muscles contract, so that the stomach pressure increases, stomach contents through the digestive tract is expelled from the body, vomiting.
There are many factors affecting postoperative nausea and vomiting in gynecological laparoscopic surgery, including patient factors, anesthetic factors and surgical factors. Firstly, gender as an independent risk factor for postoperative nausea and vomiting is widely recognized by researchers, and a large number of studies have confirmed that the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting is higher in females, and the possible mechanism is caused by different hormone levels. Secondly, some studies believe that the type of surgery is also a risk factor for postoperative nausea and vomiting, but there is some controversy. In general, laparoscopic surgery patients have a higher incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Finally, the mode of anesthesia and anesthesia-related drugs are also one of the risk factors affecting PONV. Compared with other anesthesia methods, the incidence of PONV was increased under general anesthesia, and the combination of intravenous anesthesia and intraoperative opioid application also increased the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting.
Stellate ganglion block has been proved to be widely used in clinic and can play a positive role in multiple organs and systems of the whole body. In clinical work, stellate ganglion block is more widely used in the treatment of various pain, autonomic nerve disorders and other diseases. However, there are few clinical studies on whether stellate ganglion block can be used as an effective and feasible means to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting and the related mechanisms to prevent the possible occurrence of nausea and vomiting. Therefore, this study will explore the preventive effect of stellate ganglion block on postoperative nausea and vomiting in gynecological laparoscopic patients, and hope to explore its possible mechanism, so as to provide more effective and feasible methods for clinical prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting and improve patients' medical comfort and satisfaction.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The present longitudinal, randomized, and blinded clinical trial aims to:
* Evaluate the effects of resistance training on the functional capacity, quality of life, and cardiac biomarkers of hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) on the waiting list for heart transplantation (HTx).
* Evaluate the associations between Fried's frailty classification and functional capacity responses to resistance training.
The protocol will have a total duration of 12 weeks.
**Detailed Description:** Heart failure (HF) presents a significant challenge to contemporary healthcare systems. As HF progresses, heart transplantation (HTx) becomes the primary treatment option to enhance survival rates. Patients awaiting HTx often endure extended hospitalizations and rely on continuous inotropic support. This scenario exacerbates bed rest and potentially worsening functional capacity. Resistance training has shown promise in mitigating the detrimental effects of immobility, however, limited research has explored its impact on HF patients on the HTx waiting list.
Objectives:
* To evaluate the effects of resistance training on functional capacity, quality of life, and cardiac biomarkers in hospitalized patients with HF on the HTx waiting list.
* To assess the associations between Fried's frailty phenotype and functional capacity responses to resistance training, hemodynamic behavior during the protocol, and the incidence of adverse events during the protocol implementation.
Methods:
A total of 50 patients hospitalized on the HTx waiting list will be recruited for this study. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: the resistance training group (TG) and the control group (CG). Assessments will occur at three time points: baseline (T0), at 6 weeks (T1), and at 12 weeks (T2) of resistance training. Clinical parameters will be evaluated, including the six-minute walk test and the Short Physical Performance Battery. Peripheral muscle strength will be measured using a dynamometer, and inspiratory muscle strength will be assessed through maximum inspiratory pressure. Quality of life will be evaluated using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12. Additionally, cardiac biomarkers, such as exhaled air ketone and brain natriuretic peptide levels in venous blood samples, will be analyzed.

**Brief Summary:** This placebo-controlled study will investigate the effect of tocilizumab (an anti-interleukin-6 receptor antibody) on symptom burden, physical functioning, and quality of life in patients with chronic pancreatitis.
**Detailed Description:** Recent independent research has emphasized the crucial role of immune cell infiltration and its interaction with pancreatic stellate cells in driving the inflammatory process and fibrogenesis in chronic pancreatitis (CP). The cytokine Interleukin 6 (IL-6) has been identified as a key mediator in this process, and preclinical studies have indicated that inhibiting IL-6 signaling can lead to favorable therapeutic outcomes. Consequently, targeting IL-6 signaling therapeutically holds great promise as a disease-modifying treatment for CP.
Until now, there have been no placebo-controlled trials in humans to test immune-modulating treatments for CP. However, there have been some promising results in preclinical studies. For example, administering an anti-IL-6 receptor antibody to an animal model of CP reduced pancreatitis-related pain, indicating a potential therapeutic effect. Blocking IL-6 signaling in an in-silico model of CP was also shown to have disease-modifying effects. Recent anecdotal evidence indicates that using tocilizumab to treat patients with COVID-19 and concomitant pancreatitis can decrease inflammation and pain in the pancreas. Additionally, blocking IL-6 signaling has been demonstrated to have anti-fibrotic effects in patients with systemic sclerosis. Taken together, these findings suggest that targeting IL-6 signaling could be a promising approach for reducing inflammation and fibrogenesis in CP. Tocilizumab (RoActemra) is an anti-IL-6 receptor antibody currently used to treat several inflammatory diseases.
Objectives:
The investigators hypothesize that treatment with tocilizumab, compared with a placebo, will reduce symptom burden (CP-related pain) and improve physical functioning and quality of life in patients with CP. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that the clinical effects will be linked to a decrease in pancreatic inflammation and fibrosis as well as systemic inflammation. The investigators also hypothesize that the pain-relieving effect of tocilizumab will lead to the normalization of pain processing in CP patients. To test these hypotheses, the project is organized into four sub-studies.
Sub-study 1 (main study - randomized placebo-controlled trial): The objective of sub-study 1 is to conduct an investigator-initiated phase 2b double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial to investigate the clinical effect of tocilizumab on patient-reported outcomes.
Sub-study 2 (inflammatory biomarkers): The objective of sub-study 2 is to investigate the effects of tocilizumab on systemic inflammation using blood-based immune and fibrosis markers.
Sub-study 3 (quantitative imaging biomarkers): The objective of sub-study 3 is to investigate the effect of tocilizumab on pancreatic inflammation and fibrosis using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the pancreas.
Sub-study 4 (pain processing): The objective of sub-study 4 is to investigate the effect of tocilizumab on pain processing using Pancreatic Quantitative Sensory Testing (P-QST) and electrophysiological methods (EEG and ECG).

If the patient cannot keep their hand in the water for 120 seconds, the duration is noted, and the VAS score at the time they withdraw their hand is used as the maximum score. The assessment parameters are the cold pressor endurance time (seconds) and the evoked pain responses on a visual analog scale (VAS) score, 0 = no pain and 10 = worst pain imaginable. Lower values indicate higher pain tolerance.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** In low and middle-income countries, children admitted to hospital are not similarly ill, and do not all have a comparable prognosis. In fact, understanding at first encounter their risk of developing adverse outcomes (including mortality) could allow a more focused management and the tailoring of specific interventions to decrease in hospital mortality, and post discharge adverse longer-term outcomes. This clinical trial, part of the EChiLiBRiST larger project ("Development and validation of a quantitative point-of-care test for the measurement of severity biomarkers to improve risk stratification of fever syndromes and enhance child survival") has the two-fold objective of:
1. Assessing whether a POINT-OF-CARE rapid triaging test (PoC RTT) based on the quantitative measurement at the bedside of the "prognostic" biomarker sTREM-1 (soluble-triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1) can reliably identify those admitted children with a higher risk of adverse outcomes; and
2. Assessing whether the therapeutic intervention (the L-arginine precursor, L-Citrulline, key in the nitric oxide biosynthesis), administered orally for 28 days to those children aged 1-\<60 months identified as "moderate-to-high risk" by the prognostic biomarker can improve outcomes as compared to those receiving an indistinguishable placebo.
This second objective will be assessed in a prospective multi-country, multi-site, individually randomised, two-arm, placebo-controlled, double blind clinical trial involving \~888 children 1-\<60m of age admitted to hospital and determined to be at high risk of adverse outcomes by their baseline sTREM-1 levels. The trial will compare the efficacy of a twice-daily dose of L-citrulline syrup vs placebo (200-300mg/kg/day depending on weight-band; for 28 days) in reducing adverse outcomes in children with severe disease. The trial will be running independently but in parallel in two high-mortality settings in Mozambique and in Ethiopia.
**Detailed Description:** Children admitted to hospital and meeting the study eligibility criteria who are 0-\<60 months of age will be eligible for study inclusion, and for initial biomarker screening using the study-designed rapid triaging PoC test, based on the measurement of sTREM-1. Study participants aged 1m-\<5 years of age with sTREM-1 values classified as moderate (i.e., "yellow") or high-risk (i.e., "red") in the traffic light risk-stratification system will be randomly allocated (1:1) to receive L-Cit intervention or placebo. All study participants will be followed for 6 months, with study visits at the study hospitals or at home or via phone communication after discharge at day 3, day 5, day 7, day 28, and month 6. The study primary outcome will be "adverse disease outcome", defined as a composite of mortality, incident neurological sequelae, major adverse kidney event at discharge, need for organ support, clinical shock, coma, severe respiratory distress or need for readmission within 28 days after recruitment.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a ketone drink can improve signs and symptoms of patients with a schizophrenia-spectrum disorder (SSD), or a bipolar-spectrum disorder (BD).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does a ketone drink improve information processing in patients with SSD/BD?
Other questions it aims to answer are:
Does a ketone drink improve cognitive functioning in patients with SSD/BD? Does a ketone drink improve metabolism and inflammation in patients with SSD/BD?
Research will compare the effects of the ketone drink with that of an isocaloric carbohydrate drink in the same patients ('cross-over').
Participants will:
1. drink a ketone drink and (after a wash-out period) an isocaloric control drink; after each drink:
* EEG to determine information-processing parameters (PPI and P300)
* cognitive tests
* visual analog scale of mood, energy levels, ability to focus
* indirect calorimetry to determine use of energy substrate
* blood draws
2. for 5 consecutive days:
* wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM)
* wear a non-invasive passive sweat biomarker sensor (EnLiSense device)
* register a diet and nicotine diary
* saliva sampling (max. 4x/day, only on both intervention days)

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** PPI: an event-related potential (ERP) representing information processing (known to be disrupted in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder).
The PPI task is an auditory paradigm featuring a total of 10 trials split evenly into two conditions: prepulse (PP) and non-prepulse (NP) in blocks. Startle pulses are 100dB at 40 ms, which is shown to provide significant startle visible in EEG126. Prepulse stimuli are 70 dB and 50 ms in duration, presented 50ms prior to the startle pulse. There is a 12 to 18 (avg: 15 s) interstimulus interval. All stimuli are white-noise blips. A calibrated apparatus is used to present the stimuli. Total estimated time is 20 min.
**Measure:** Prepulse Inhibition (PPI) - change dGK vs isocaloric control
**Time Frame:** measured 45 minutes (Tmax) after ingestion of intervention 1 (dGK) and 45 minuts after ingestion of intervention 2 (isocaloric carb control)
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** The P300 task consists of 160 stimuli in the oddball paradigm and requires the subjects to press a button on detection of the rare target (32/160). The common nontarget stimuli are 500 Hz, 100 ms duration. The rare target stimuli are 700 Hz. Both are 100 ms duration at 80 dB with variable interstimulus interval of 1.2 to 1.5 s. Preceded by 10 practice trials. This task has minimal burden and requires about 10 minutes.
**Measure:** P300 Event Related Potential (change dGK vs isocaloric control)
**Time Frame:** measured 65-75 minutes after ingestion of intervention 1 (dGK) and 75 minutes after ingestion of intervention 2 (isocaloric carb control); NB: directly after PPI.
**Description:** 15WT is a measure of verbal/episodic memory. The 15WT consists of 15 words, which have to be learned during three trials. After every trial the respondent is asked to recall as many words as possible. After a distraction period of 20 minutes, the respondent is asked to name the words they have learned before, again.
Immediate recall after 1 test: maximum 15 words (minimum 0) Immediate recall after 3 test: maximum 45 words (minimum 0).
Retention score after 20 minutes:
1. percentage of correctly remembered words in the delayed recall-trial, relative to the number of words correctly remembered in the third immediate recall-trial
2. percentage of correctly remembered words in the delayed recall-trial, relative to the maximum score in the immediate recall-trials
Higher 15WT scores indicate better verbal/episodic memory, lower scores the opposite.
**Measure:** Cognitive test: 15 Word Test (15WT) - change dGK vs isocaloric control

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) manifests as a qualitative, demarcated defect in tooth enamel of systemic origin, predominantly affecting one or more permanent first molars, and potentially extending to the incisors. One significant challenge in managing this enamel anomaly is hypersensitivity, leading to discomfort and pain in affected patients. Low-intensity laser therapy, alone or combined with other modalities, appears promising in alleviating pain associated with MIH. This study aims to assess the efficacy of low-intensity laser therapy using varied parameters, in conjunction with a remineralizing agent, for pain management in children with molar incisor hypomineralization. Participants aged 6 to 12 years will be recruited, with a total of 88 teeth diagnosed with MIH, presenting a sensitivity score ≤3 on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and a score ≤1 on the Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale (SCASS). The teeth will be randomly assigned to one of four groups (n=22 each): Group I (GI): L-1J + VF, Group II (GII): L-1J + VP, Group III (GIII): L-2J + VF, and Group IV (GIV): L-2J + VP. Here, 'L' denotes low-intensity laser application at different parameters (1J and 2J), combined with either fluoride varnish (VF) or a placebo varnish (VP). Interventions and assessments will be conducted initially, after 48 hours, and at 1 and 2 weeks post-treatment. Patients will undergo re-evaluation at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks following interventions. Statistical analyses will be performed with a 95% confidence level (α = 0.05).
**Detailed Description:** A randomized clinical trial will be carried out involving children aged 6 to 12 years, with a total of 88 teeth diagnosed with MIH, presenting a sensitivity score ≤3 on the visual analogue scale (VAS) and a score ≤1 on the Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale (SCASS). ). Inclusion criteria will require the presence of at least one erupted permanent molar with an occlusal surface free of gingival tissue, demonstrating IMH with sensitivity. Additionally, participants must provide informed consent forms signed by parents or guardians, along with consent forms signed by children. Exclusion criteria include decayed teeth, atypical carious lesions, teeth that have other enamel defects such as fluorosis, enamel hypoplasia, amelogenesis imperfecta or enamel malformations associated with syndromes, ongoing orthodontic treatment, cognitive disorders in patients, desensitizing treatments recent use in the last 3 months, previous use of anti-inflammatory and/or analgesic medications, teeth diagnosed with MIH presenting post-eruptive dentin fractures, atypical restorations, atypical caries, sensitivity scores \>3 on the visual analogue scale (VAS) and scores \> 1 on the Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale (SCASS).
For the diagnosis of MIH, the investigators will employ the criteria outlined by the European Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, which includes assessment of demarcated opacities, post-eruptive enamel defects, atypical restorations, teeth lost due to MIH, and incompletely erupted teeth. The sample size was determined based on the anticipated outcome of pain reduction following treatment, with an expected 60% reduction. Calculation was conducted with a confidence level of 95% and a power of 80%.
Following the application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, each group will consist of a total of 88 teeth, randomly assigned to one of four groups: GI, GII, GIII, and GIV. The interventions for each group will be as follows:
GI: Low-Intensity Laser 1J (10 seconds) + Fluoride Varnish. GII: Low-Intensity Laser 1J (10 seconds) + Placebo. GIII: Low-Intensity Laser 2J (20 seconds) + Fluoride Varnish. GIV: Low-Intensity Laser 2J (20 seconds) + Placebo.
To administer laser therapy, the investigators will utilize a low-intensity infrared diode laser (Therapy EC, DMC Equipamentos Ltda., São Carlos, Brazil) operating in continuous mode, emitting at a wavelength of 808 nm with a power output of 100 mW. The dosage will be set at either 1 or 2 Joules, with a fluence of 35 J/cm\^2. Both the operator and the patient will wear personal protective equipment (PPE) during the procedure. The tooth will be irradiated perpendicular to the tooth surface, targeting the cervical third of the buccal surface (both mesial and distal aspects), as well as the center of the lesion. Activation time will be either 10 or 20 seconds, corresponding to 1 or 2 Joules respectively, depending on the assigned group. To ensure consistency, even if the laser is activated for 1 Joule (equivalent to 10 seconds), the laser tip will be maintained in place for a standardized duration of 20 seconds, the maximum activation time, as confirmed by a stopwatch in all applications to ensure reliability.
As an adjunct to LBI, the investigators will use a fluoride varnish (FV) and a placebo varnish (PV) without the active ingredient, ensuring that they are in identical packaging with the same taste and texture. Both will maintain the same method of application. The FV used will be Duraphat® (22,600 ppm F, Colgate). The application of both FV and PV will be conducted according to each respective group. Application will be facilitated using a microbrush, spreading it over the entire lesion area for 30 seconds. After the interventions, patients will be instructed not to consume hard foods and to refrain from brushing their teeth for at least four hours following varnish application, adhering to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Following all tests, the data will undergo normality analysis (Shapiro-Wilk test) and homoscedasticity assessment (Levene's test) to determine the suitability of parametric statistics. Therefore, for all variables, one-way ANOVA will be employed, followed by Tukey's post-hoc test for group comparisons. Demographic data will be evaluated using Pearson's chi-square test. Friedman's test may be utilized for multiple comparisons (sensitivity assessments), and the Wilcoxon test for paired comparisons. Analyses will be conducted using the statistical software SPSS 12.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). All tests will be performed at a 95% confidence level (α = 0.05).

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Applying the low intensity laser of 1 joule (10 seconds) in infrared light in continuous mode, using a wavelength of 808 nm, power of 100 mW, dose of 1 or 2 Joules and fluence of 35 J/cm2. As an adjuvant to fluoride varnish (22,600 ppm F), we expect an improvement in hypersensitivity assessed by the visual analogue scale, ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain), so that applications performed after 48 hours will decrease, and in 1 and 2 weeks post-treatment, remaining stable during follow-ups at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after interventions. This expectation arises from the known mechanisms of laser action in controlling inflammation and providing analgesia. Furthermore, we also anticipate that fluoride varnish will exert its remineralizing effects, contributing to the overall treatment of the disease.
**Measure:** Gradual change of hypersensitivity on the visual analogue scale.
**Time Frame:** Gradual reduction after 48 hours, and at 1 and 2 weeks post-treatment and remaining stable during follow-ups of 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks following interventions
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** Applying the low intensity laser of 1 joule (10 seconds) in infrared light in continuous mode, using a wavelength of 808 nm, power of 100 mW, dose of 1 or 2 Joules and fluence of 35 J/cm2. As an adjuvant to fluoride varnish (22,600 ppm F), we expect improvement in hypersensitivity assessed by the Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale, ranging from 0 (the child does not respond to the stimulus) to 3 (the child responds to the stimulus, moves away and requests immediate suspension of the stimulation), so that it decreases with applications carried out after 48 hours, and at 1 and 2 weeks post-treatment, remaining stable during follow-ups at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after the interventions. This expectation arises from the known mechanisms of laser action in controlling inflammation and providing analgesia. Furthermore, we also anticipate that fluoride varnish will exert its remineralizing effects, contributing to the overall treatment of the disease.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Type of Study: Clinical Trial
Goal: The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate specific brown and beige fat cells in the dorsocervical area of young, lean adult women.
Participant Population/Health Conditions: The study will involve 40 young, lean adult women.
Main Questions: The main questions this study aims to answer are:
* Are there active brown or beige adipocytes in the subcutaneous fat of the dorsocervical area (i.e., iBAT)?
* What is the secretory function of these adipocytes?
* How do traditional interventions like cold exposure, as well as new approaches like Beta-2 agonist stimulation and exercise, affect the thermogenesis of these fat cells at the cellular and molecular levels?
Participants Will:
Be randomized into one of four groups: thermoneutral exposure, cold exposure, aerobic exercise, or Beta-2 agonist treatment.
Follow their assigned regimen for 4 weeks. Provide tissue samples from the dorsocervical area and abdomen before and after the 4-week intervention.
Undergo analysis of these samples using advanced techniques to understand the presence and activity of brown and beige fat cells.
Comparison Group: Researchers will compare the effects of different interventions (thermoneutral exposure, cold exposure, aerobic exercise, Beta-2 agonist treatment) on the presence and thermogenesis of brown and beige fat cells in the dorsocervical area.
**Detailed Description:** Cardiometabolic diseases affect almost 50% of the population in the Western World. While lifestyle plus pharmacological interventions may provide short-term benefits, more research is needed to understand the long-term effectiveness and underlying molecular mechanisms. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a thermogenic tissue that combusts large amounts of glucose and lipids to generate heat and secretes signalling molecules known as 'batokines' that can influence cardiometabolic health. Previous research has shown that BAT is active in adults, primarily in the supraclavicular region, as demonstrated by the uptake of 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose. Recently, it has been demonstrated that a rare subpopulation of brown adipocytes increases their abundance at higher temperatures and can regulate the thermogenesis of neighbouring adipocytes. Thus, it is plausible that classical (e.g., cold exposure) and novel interventions (i.e., Beta-2 stimulation and exercise) that can activate BAT, would induce a remodelling in the brown/beige subpopulation adipocytes that govern whole tissue thermogenesis. These unstudied changes in human BAT physiology could potentially explain how BAT activation could enhance cardiometabolic health. However, despite over a decade of research, our understanding of the role of BAT in human physiology in humans is limited. This lack of knowledge may be mainly explained because i) obtaining biological samples of human BAT is very difficult and ii) the seasonal variation strongly influences the current gold standard (PET-CT scan). Given the pilot data found in this proposal, young, lean adult women may have a novel and undescribed thermogenic active BAT depot at the dorsocervical area (i.e., interscapular BAT=iBAT).
Based on that, the main hypothesis is that there are brown and/or beige adipocytes present within the subcutaneous adipose tissue of the dorsocervical area (i.e., iBAT) that have a unique composition of adipocyte subpopulations and specific secretory functions. Additionally, the specific subpopulations of brown and/or beige adipocytes related to thermogenesis in iBAT can be increased through exposure to cold temperatures, Beta-2 agonist stimulation, and exercise in young, lean women.
Thus, the main objective of this study is to investigate whether the subcutaneous fat in the dorsocervical area contains active brown and/or beige adipocytes (i.e., iBAT), understand its secretory function, and study the impact of traditional (e.g. cold exposure) and new interventions (e.g. Beta-2 agonist and exercise) on iBAT thermogenesis at the cellular and molecular levels.
Thus, the DEBATE project will carry out a randomized controlled trial where 40 young, lean adult women will be randomized into a thermoneutral exposure group (2 hours/day at 32ºC; 5 days/week) or a cold exposure group (2 hours/day at 18ºC; 5 days/week) or an aerobic exercise group (5 days/week at 65% heart rate reserve for 60 minutes) or a Beta-2 agonist group (salbutamol 12 mg/day. 7 days week). Before and after the 4-week intervention, iBAT tissue samples from the dorsocervical area and subcutaneous white adipose tissue (scWAT) from the abdomen will be collected. In these biological samples, the investigators will apply a set of cutting-edge omics (e.g., single nucleus RNA-seq) that will allow us to investigate whether iBAT is present and metabolically active in adults. The investigators will also conduct a set of in vitro experiments to discover the secretory function of this novel depot.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The loss of periodontal attachment contributes to reduced masticatory performance and has a negative impact on general health.This clinical trial aims to assess the status of masticatory performance among patients with stage I, stage II, stage III and stage IV periodontitis, along with those with healthy periodontium.
**Detailed Description:** Periodontal disease manifestations include gingival bleeding, halitosis, tooth mobility and loss of teeth in advanced cases. The loss of periodontal attachment contributes to reduced masticatory performance and has a negative impact on general health. Loss of periodontium leads to reduced ability of tooth to withstand masticatory loads. Thus, biting abilities of subjects with healthy periodontium are significantly greater than those of chronic periodontitis patients. Even though the new periodontitis classification includes masticatory dysfunction in stage 4, but clinical periodontal parameters do start influencing objective masticatory efficiency in early stages. Since the masticatory function is an important point for the classification of periodontitis, standardized procedures with corresponding reference values are needed to consider these parameters in the assessment of periodontitis and to be able to make specific therapy recommendations.
This clinical trial aims to assess the changes in masticatory performance among periodontitis patients of all stages and healthy individuals using test methods easily applicable in daily practice.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** In a prospective, single-arm study, the efficacy and safety of Lusutrombopag in the treatment of relapsed/refractory/intolerable non-severe aplastic anemia (NSAA) were explored.
**Detailed Description:** The enrolled patients: were given Lusutrombopag at 3mg/qd orally for 12 weeks (the starting dose of lusutrombopag was 3mg, taken once daily. After 2 weeks of continuous administration, the dose was increased by 3mg every 2 weeks based on the platelet count and safety of the subjects. The dose was gradually increased to 9mg/d over a total of 12 weeks). The treatment duration was at least 3 months. When the platelet increase was \<20×10\^9/L, the daily dose was increased by 3mg, up to a maximum of 9mg/day. When the platelet increase was ≥50×109/L and ≤200×10\^9/L, the dose was maintained at the previous level. When the platelet count was ≥200×10\^9/L and ≤400×10\^9/L, the daily dose was reduced by 3mg. When the platelet count was \>400×10\^9/L, the drug could be suspended, and the dose was reduced by 3mg when the platelet count decreased to \<200×10\^9/L. In this case, if the lowest dose of 3mg/day was used, the drug could be suspended. Responders continued treatment for 6 months. Other TPO-RA therapies were not allowed during the study period.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Questionnaires and scales used to assess the clinical status and quality of life of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are an important tool to monitor the disease progression and current needs of patients. The use of these tools (and in particular their combination) allows to cover the whole spectrum of potential patient difficulties and thus significantly facilitates the process of individualisation and optimisation of care. The aim of the study was to create and validate the Czech language versions of the following questionnaires or scales: (1) ALSFRS-R (ALS Functional Rating Scale - Revised Version) and (2) ALSFRS-EX (EXtended, i.e. extended, version of the same scale), both in the self-assessment version (incl. (3) the ALSAQ-40 (ALS Assessment Questionnaire including 40 questions), (4) the DYALS (Dysphagia in ALS), and (5) the Borg Dyspnoea Rating Scale.
All questionnaires were translated using the forward-backward translation method. The scales and questionnaires were administered to ALS patients repeatedly at one-week intervals, first in writing during routine patient follow-up at the Neuromuscular Centre of the University Hospital Brno, and during repeated administrations by telephone.
**Detailed Description:** The first step of the study (before patient recruitment began) was the linguistic validation of all the scales and questionnaires used. Initially, Czech language versions were created using the forward-backward translation method. These created versions were then discussed by an expert panel consisting of 2 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis experts and 2 translators (one native speaker bilingual for both Czech and English, one professional translator specialized in medical English).
Patients potentially meeting the entry criteria will be informed about the purpose and conduct of the study and will sign an informed consent if they agree to participate in the study.
The first administration of all questionnaires (including the self-assessment version of the ALSFRS-R, ALSFRS-Ex, ALSAQ-40, DYALS and Borg Scale for lying, standing and moving positions) will be performed as part of the patient's routine clinical follow-up at the neuromuscular centre. The other two administrations of the questionnaires will be done by telephone one and two weeks after inclusion, respectively. The one-week interval was chosen in line with the approach of similar foreign validation studies of other languages, so that there is a high probability of no significant change in the patient's clinical condition between repeated administrations and, on the other hand, that the patient no longer remembers in detail the answers from the previous administration. At the first telephone readministration (after one week), patients will complete the full range of questionnaires as they did at the first administration of the questionnaires at the centre. The second telephone readministration (after an additional week) will involve completion of the ALSFRS-R and -EX questionnaires only and will use the standard version of both questionnaires administered by an assessor certified to use this scale.
For patients with significantly limited verbal communication skills, it is acceptable to have the patient's caregiver mediate the responses during the telephone administration and/or to send the completed questionnaires during the follow-up administrations by mail or electronically (e-mail). In these cases, patients will be invited to complete the readministration questionnaires by email or telephone (depending on their preference) at a time that would be consistent with normal telephone readministrations for other patients (to maintain an identical time interval between readministrations). Similarly, for patients with limited ability to grasp writing instruments, it will be permissible to complete questionnaires in collaboration with the caregiver, but always on the basis of patient-reported data.
At the first administration of all questionnaires (including the self-assessment version of the ALSFRS-R questionnaire) at the centre, the patient will be asked to complete the questionnaires without further clarification from the investigator. Similarly, during the first telephone readministration involving only the self-assessment questionnaires, the individual questions and the options included in them will be read to the patient only, with no opportunity for the patient to ask additional questions, in order to maintain the self-assessment nature of all tests used.
The standard (non-self-assessment) version of the ALSFRS-R questionnaire will be administered at the second telephone follow-up by TRICALS (Treatment Research Initiative to Cure ALS, an organisation authorised to use the questionnaire in a certified manner) certified assessors and will be administered in accordance with the training provided by this initiative. Initial and repeat administrations will be conducted by different raters. Evaluators conducting telephone readministrations will not be aware of patients' initial test results at the first administration or their clinical status.
The procedures for working with human subjects were approved by the Ethics Committee of the Brno University Hospital on 11.05.2023, reference number 06-110522/EK, project number 85/22.
Statistical data processing will be performed using SPSS 29 statistical software (IBM Corporation, 2020, Armonk, New York, USA).

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Obesity is a widespread disease that basically develops from unhealthy lifestyle and genetics. The Fat-mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene affects appetite and energy intake of the body, thus elevating fat mass and body weight. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs9939609 of the FTO gene is a common variant in different ethnic groups, and its A allele is associated with increased body mass and waist circumference. Hence, the carriers of rs9939609 SNP are prone to weight gain if a healthy diet and lifestyle are not maintained. Similarly, high levels of serum cholesterol and triglycerides, while low levels of high-density lipoproteins are observed in carriers of rs9939609 AA genotype. For individuals having FTO rs9939609 A allele, consumption of hypocaloric diets (1500 kcal/day) consisting of high protein foods up to 25-30% of total daily energy intake might help reduce body weight. However, weight loss tends to vary in individuals after consuming the same diet under similar environmental conditions, so it is important to know the effect of different genotypes that might cause this variation. The study aimed to genotype overweight and obese adults for FTO rs9939609 polymorphism and to determine the effect of this polymorphism on body weight, BMI, waist and hip circumferences, lipid profile, insulin sensitivity, ghrelin levels, inflammatory markers and advanced glycation end-products in these individuals after consumption of a hypocaloric, high-protein diet for 4 weeks.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The study aims to estimate Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) prevalence and evaluate health equity gaps in Baltimore and Maryland based on zip codes and race, with a focus on the Black community. Interventions will include educational elements about NPH and three layers targeting patients, Primary Care Providers, and community health workers to enhance care access. Short-term outcomes will measure referrals to specialists, while long-term outcomes will assess healthcare utilization. The study aims to identify and reduce racial disparities in NPH care access, informing intervention strategies for NPH and other surgical areas.
**Detailed Description:** This proposal responds to an established need for developing an evidence-based and community-informed approach to address health disparities in specialty surgical clinics where barriers to accessing care are multiplied along each level of the referral pathway. The study will focus on Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) related care - a clinical syndrome characterized excess cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain resulting in symptoms of falls, dementia, and urinary incontinence, that is treated surgically by shunting to remove excess fluid from the brain. This disorder afflicts an estimated about 750,000 Americans, and prevalence increases with age. Limited information regarding racial and socioeconomic contributing factors associated with diagnosis and treatment is available.
Studies show NPH goes underdiagnosed in the USA. In the first part of the study the investigators will estimate NPH prevalence, the health equity gap in Baltimore and greater Maryland (MD), the health equity gap based on Zip Code as a marker of sociodemographic community status, and the health equity gap based on race, looking at the Black community, which comprises over 60% of the Baltimore and 30% in MD population. In the second part of the study, the investigators will develop three layers of interventions that involve educational elements about NPH and evaluate which provides the most benefit including referrals to NPH related care. 1) Patients identified from the first part of the study with possible NPH symptoms will receive intervention 2) Patients, and the Primary Care Providers (PCPs) receive intervention, and 3) patients, and PCP receive intervention and with additional community health workers (CHWs) assisting providers with managing the patient care including referrals, addressing socioeconomic barriers, transportation to receive care.
The success of these interventions will be evaluated by short-term outcomes such as referrals to specialists including neurologists and neurosurgeons every 6 months, and long-term outcomes such as healthcare utilization including screening for shunt surgery within 12 months. This study aims to identify racial disparities in access to NPH care and intervention outcomes will evaluate the effect of different interventions on reducing racial disparities and to help developing a referral system to address the needs of most vulnerable population and Zip Codes in Baltimore and greater MD. Using the results of this study will help to identify gaps, understand the best intervention, and develop intervention strategies not only for NPH but potentially other surgical areas.

**Brief Summary:** This study is a randomized, controlled, non-inferiority trial, that will be performed on 192 women on Menopause (absence of menstruation for at least 12 months), with diagnostic of genitourinary syndrome of menopause (SGM) and a vaginal health index \<15 points, that are sexually active.
Patients will be randomized 1:1, equal number assigned to each of the two treatment groups, to receive treatment with two dose of Cellular Matrix / A-CP-HA Kit (a combination of autologous platelet-rich plasma and non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid) separated for a month, and control group that will receive the standard treatment for SGM, local estrogen therapy (Blissel, estriol 50 micrograms/g vaginal gel).
Both groups will be follow-up for 3 and 6 month afther treatment, a blind observer will assess the application of the validated scale (VHIS, VHI), and the investigators will do the FSD, symptom record, maturation index, follow-up photography and evaluation of adverse events and treatment compliance and adherence.
**Detailed Description:** This study is a randomized, controlled, non-inferiority trial, with a second blind observer, comparing effectiveness of the use of Cellular Matrix / A-CP-HA Kit (a combination of autologous platelet-rich plasma and non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid) to the standard line of treatment, local estrogen therapy (Blissel, estriol 50 micrograms/g vaginal gel) in women with genitourinary syndrome of menopause (SGM). Duration of the study estimated is 24 months.
A total of 192 menopausal women, with absence of menstruation for at least 12 months, ≤70 years old, that are sexually active and who report symptoms and signs of SGM, with a vaginal health index \<15 points. Patients will be excluded if are in treatment with systemic or local hormonal treatment in the last 3 months, Tamoxifen or Aromatase inhibitor treatments. Vulvovaginal pathologies (condyloma, vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia, vaginal carcinoma, lichen sclerosus, lichen planus, history of radiation, history of cervical cancer, other gynecologic cancer, or pelvic radiation, or active genital infection (eg. g., bacterial vaginosis, genital herpes, candida). Contraindication for vaginal estrogen therapy. Women with thrombocytopenia or coagulation disorders, systemic infections, STDs, cancer of any type in recent treatment, connective tissue diseases. Women who have had pelvic surgery within 6 months.
Patients will be randomized 1:1, equal number assigned to each of the two treatment groups, to receive treatment with two dose of Cellular Matrix / A-CP-HA Kit (a combination of autologous platelet-rich plasma and non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid), separated for a month, and control group that will receive the standard treatment for SGM, local estrogen therapy (Blissel, estriol 50 micrograms/g vaginal gel).
Patients will interviewed about their medical history, age of menopause, symptoms related and history of treatments. Evaluation of the Vaginal Health Index (VHIS), Vulvar Health Index (VHI), vaginal pH, and vaginal maturation index (vaginal cytology). The intensity of VVA symptoms (vaginal burning, vaginal itching, vaginal dryness, dyspareunia and dysuria) will be measured using a 5-cm visual analog scale (VAS), and a valuation of Female Sexual Distress (FSD) score. Photographic monitoring during all phases of the procedure. Routine laboratory test serology will requested for both groups (valid up to 3 months).
Both groups will be follow-up for 3 and 6 month afther treatment, a blind observer will assess the application of the validated scale (VHIS, VHI), and the investigators will do the FSD, symptom record, maturation index, follow-up photography and evaluation of adverse events and treatment compliance and adherence.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The use of simulation in nursing education is an effective way to provide professional skills and enrich learning experiences while protecting patient safety. When the literature is examined, it is seen that simulation is frequently used in advanced life support training. The aim of the study is to examine the effects of advanced life support training in adults, which will be carried out with high-reality simulator/model simulation, web-based simulation and hybrid simulation methods, on the knowledge and skills of nursing students. It has been determined that training provided with hybrid simulation contributes to the professional development of students by creating individualized and interactive learning environments, and that students can more easily transfer the knowledge they have acquired in the educational environment to clinical practice. As a hybrid simulation method in the study; It is planned to use a combination of high-reality simulator/model, which has been proven to be effective in the development of psychomotor skills, and the web-based simulation method, which is effective in creating permanent learning by allowing students to repeat more. In the literature; It has been stated that the level of knowledge and skills gradually decreases after 6-10 weeks of advanced/basic life training. It is anticipated that the web-based simulation method will be effective in providing permanent learning as it gives learners the opportunity to repeat during/after the training. Based on these assumptions, it is planned to develop an adult advanced life support training program consisting of theory and practice, in which the development of students' professional skills is supported through hybrid simulation applications, and the students are provided with the opportunity to repeat. Since the study tests 3 different interventions, it is anticipated that it will lay the groundwork for subsequent studies and provide comprehensive information about simulation-based education practices.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT), a therapeutically orphan neuromuscular disease affecting one in 2,500 people, represents a challenge to the medical and scientific communities. Physiotherapeutic-rehabilitative strategies play a crucial role in the management of CMT, particularly addressing balance impairment, a key disabling symptom. However, clinical studies in this field are limited. Our study aims to investigate the impact of strengh and somatosensory deficits on static and dynamic balance in CMT patients. The Investigators also aim to explore the involvement of the vestibular system and its correlation with postural instability. Furthermore, the Investigators seek to evaluate relationships between neurochemical biomarkers offering valuable insights for future targeted clinical studies.
**Detailed Description:** A total of 60 patients will be recruited. To ensure adequate representation of the subgroups of interest, 10 patients with CMT1A (PMP22 gene duplication) and 10 patients with CMT2, regardless of their genotype, will be included. Additionally, three control groups, each comprising 10 subjects, will be included. The first group will consist of patients with motor symptoms, including those with hereditary motor neuropathy (HMN, 10 patients) or distal myopathy (MD, 10 patients). The second group will include patients with solely sensory symptoms, genetic neuropathies, or purely sensory acquired neuropathies such as HSN and neuropathies from anti-MAG antibodies. Finally, the third group will be composed of 10 healthy subjects. Each control subject will have comparable level of disability (motor or somatosensory), age, and gender to the enrolled CMT patients.
All participants must meet the following inclusion criteria to take part in the study:
* Age 18 years or older
* Subject has documented diagnosis of one of the following diseases (except from healthy controls):
* Hereditary sensory-motor neuropathy (CMT) confirmed by genetic analysis
* Hereditary motor neuropathy (HMN) confirmed by genetic analysis
* Hereditary sensory neuropathy (HSN) confirmed by genetic analysis
* Hereditary distal myopathy (MD) confirmed by genetic analysis
* Acquired sensory neuropathy: anti-MAG antibody neuropathy confirmed by neurophysiological, clinical and serological assessment.
The presence of any one of the following exclusion criteria will lead to the exclusion of the subject:
* Inability to maintain an upright position without assistance
* Presence of systemic, neurological (except for the neuropathies and hereditary myopathies under study), psychiatric, orthopedic or rheumatological diseases that may affect evaluation
* Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE)14 score less than 28
* History of alcohol or substance abuse
* Partecipation in intensive motor rehabilitation programs in the last three months.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Heart rate variability (HRV) is a measure of the variation in time between each heartbeat.
It is an indirect and ubiquitous biomarker of performance readiness and recovery measured by most consumer-grade wearable fitness trackers. However, there is little documented on the relationship between HRV, training load, and performance measures in the Real-World.
Whoop wrist-worn activity trackers have been validated against the gold-standard Electrocardiography (ECG) for HRV and HR measurements. Whoop leverages photoplethysmography (PPG) technology to continuously track (HR, HRV, respiratory rate, energy expenditure) and provides, daily, individual insights, trends, and coaching to improve strain, sleep, and recovery. Research has demonstrated that heart rate variability (HRV) guided training may be more optimal compared to predetermined training for aerobic exercise improvements.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of providing personalized training recommendations based on HRV measured by a consumer-grade wearable (Whoop) in a real-world setting to better understand the HRV relationship with performance.
**Detailed Description:** The purpose of this study is to determine if Training Intensity (%HRmax in min.) during Low HRV periods acutely (below HRV baseline next day and consecutive days) and chronically (weeks below previous weeks HRV baseline) will have a negative relationship with Post-Test Performance Metrics as measured by Force Plates, which could lead to personalized training recommendations using HRV. The Investigators conducted a pilot study using Whoop devices to monitor 50 subjects for 3 months and observed that individuals had High Training Load (above their baseline) on Low HRV days (below their baseline) on over 200 days. The Investigators hypothesize seeing similar High Training Load on Low HRV days during this study and would like to understand that relationship with Performance
Primary objective: To determine if Training Intensity (%HRmax in min.) during Low HRV periods acutely (below HRV baseline next day and consecutive days) and chronically (weeks below previous weeks HRV baseline) will have a negative relationship with Post-Test Performance Metrics as measured by Force Plates.
Secondary Objective : Measure and determine if subjective journal entries (mood, anxiety, recovery, etc.) are related to HRV, RHR, Sleep Quantity, and Sleep Efficiency.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Rotator cuff tendonitis (RCT) is one of the most common shoulder pathologies, causing pain, limitation of shoulder joint movements, and impaired function. Patient education, medical treatment, corticosteroid injections, physiotherapy rehabilitation approaches are the most common treatment options applied to alleviate the symptoms of RCT. Despite these various treatment methods, there are currently no specific guidelines regarding the most appropriate and effective intervention for RCT treatment. This is mainly because adequate, high-quality studies are lacking in RCT management. To the best of our knowledge, no studies have evaluated the effects of Kinesio Taping (KT), which has become a popular approach in recent years, and Cold Therapy (CT), which has often been used as a therapeutic agent since immemorial, on individuals with RCT. In this regard, this study aimed to investigate and compare the short-term effects of KT and CT on pain and upper extremity functionality in individuals with RCT.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Numerical Rating Scale (NRS): The pain severity was assessed using the NRS, for which a subject was asked to rate his/her perceived pain. A 11-point NRS from 0 to 10 which 0 means no pain and 10 means the worst possible pain was scored during night, rest, and activity.
**Measure:** Pain intensity
**Time Frame:** At baseline and after three days of the applications
**Description:** Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) Questionnaire): DASH is a self-reported questionnaire designed for evaluating the functional level of upper extremity. It is a 30-item scale that addresses difficulty in performing various physical activities that require upper extremity function (physical function, 21 items); symptoms of pain, activity-related pain, tingling, weakness, and stiffness (pain symptoms, 5 items); or impact of disability and symptoms on social activities, work, sleep, and psychological well-being (emotional and social function, 4 items). Each item is scored between 1 and 5. A score of 1 indicates no strain, and a score of 5 indicates inability to perform the specified activity.
**Measure:** Function
**Time Frame:** At baseline and after three days of the applications
**Description:** Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI): The SPADI is a self-administered questionnaire developed to measure the pain and disability associated with shoulder pathology in people with shoulder pain of musculoskeletal, neurogenic, or undetermined origin. It consists of 13 items that assess two domains: a 5-item subscale that measures pain and an 8-item subscale that measures disability. The items of both domains were scored on a numerical rating scale ranging from 0 to 10, where 0=no pain/no disability and 10= worst pain imaginable/so difficult required help.
**Measure:** Function
**Time Frame:** At baseline and after three days of the applications
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** Range of Motion (ROM): The active range of motion (ROM) of the affected shoulder, including flexion, abduction, external rotation, and internal rotation, was assessed using a universal goniometer following the protocol reported by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS)

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The lifetime risk for development of atrial fibrillation, the commonest sustained arrhythmia in adults, is estimated to be 24%-27% for individuals of 40 years or older. Previous work showed that annual new diagnosis of AF is 11000-26000 in Hong Kong. Other arrhythmia such as supraventricular arrhythmia or premature beats were also common and of clinical significance.
12-lead ECG is a first line investigation for patients with suspected paroxysmal arrhythmia, but it has a low diagnostic yield with its 10-30 seconds recordings. 24-hour Holter exam is the usual next step of diagnosis. The diagnostic yield of Holter varies according to indication but is generally low at 1%-12%. This is because paroxysmal arrhythmia may not happen every day. In addition, even if arrhythmia is picked up in Holter, patient may not register the symptom, making the symptom arrhythmia correlation problematic.
Despite limitations, the demand for Holter exam is still high. In Prince of Wales Hospital, a tertiary referral centre with a catchment of about 1 million populations, the waiting time for a routine Holter exam is 3 years.
Smartwatch has gained popularity over past years as an adjunct to smartphone. Latest generations of smartwatch were equipped with wearer-initiated ECG rhythm strip recording capabilities. Smartwatch has evolved to become a health tracker with arrhythmia detection capabilities. It was found to be a useful tool for atrial fibrillation screening in general population. Other arrhythmias, such as supraventricular tachycardia, premature beats, and abnormal ECG patterns associated with sudden cardiac death could also be detected with smartwatch ECG recordings. Apple Heart study was the largest study utilizing smartwatch for arrhythmia detection. The general population was screened for atrial fibrillation using irregular pulse algorithm. The study found a 84% concordance rate between irregular pulse notification and ECG patches.
Therefore, investigators propose to conduct a study to compare its diagnostic yield with Holter, in patients with suspected arrhythmia and see if smartwatch recording following a systematic protocol for four-weeks will have better arrhythmia diagnosis yield than a 24-hour Holter exam.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Breast-conserving surgery is the standard treatment for young breast cancer patients, while mastectomy with breast reconstruction is an alternative for those who are not eligible for Breast-conserving surgery. Several studies have compared the quality of life and patient satisfaction among individuals receiving different types of surgery (Breast-conserving surgery, mastectomy alone, or mastectomy with reconstruction). For example, Meghan R. demonstrated that patients undergoing Breast-conserving surgery experience a higher quality of life compared to those undergoing mastectomy with breast reconstruction, whereas J. Dauplat's study showed that patients who undergo mastectomy with breast reconstruction report a higher quality of life than those who undergo mastectomy alone.
However, the investigators hypothesize that the advantages of a specific type of surgery over another, such as Breast-conserving surgery versus breast reconstruction, may vary among patients with different socioeconomic factors. For instance, the benefits of breast reconstruction over Breast-conserving surgery might be more pronounced in young patients who require a more socially active lifestyle.
Additionally, the benefits of one type of surgery over another may also vary at different time points during post-operative follow-up. Furthermore, it is worth noting that most current studies have been conducted in Caucasian populations. In contrast to Caucasians, Asians typically have smaller breast volumes, potentially leading to more significant defects after Breast-conserving surgery and possibly poorer aesthetic outcomes. Therefore, a study focusing on Asian young breast cancer populations is necessary.
**Detailed Description:** This study is a prospective, observational cohort study aiming to enroll 1000 young Chinese breast cancer patients and assign them to three arms: Breast-conserving surgery, mastectomy alone, and mastectomy with breast reconstruction, based on their clinical decisions and preferences. Clinicopathological features (age,Tumor, Node, Metastasis stages, pathological features, etc.), socioeconomic determinants (education level, income, insurance status, marital status, occupational status, personality, etc.), treatment information (neoadjuvant chemotherapy or not, post-operative complications), and survival (local recurrence, metastasis) will be recorded.
All patients will be followed at 6 and 12 months for the first year after diagnosis, then yearly thereafter for an additional 9 years (for a total follow-up of at least 10 years following diagnosis). During the post-operative follow-up, quality of life, psychological well-being, decision regret, surgical information, treatment costs, and surveillance-follow-up will be recorded.
The primary endpoint of this study is the quality of life, assessed using the Breast-Q and the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). Secondary endpoints include decisional conflict scale, decision regret scales, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).
The primary and secondary endpoints will be compared among the three arms, and the impact of socioeconomic determinants at baseline on these endpoints will also be investigated. Additionally, the investigators aim to explore the potential of a novel subtyping method for young breast cancer patients using selected socioeconomic determinants.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The purpose of the HF2 (Hemodynamic Frontiers in Heart Failure) registry is to collect relevant patient-level demographic, clinical, laboratory, and hemodynamic data from patients implanted with pulmonary artery pressure sensor at participating centers to advance scientific knowledge about ambulatory hemodynamics monitoring and HF (Heart Failure) therapies. The data collected will be used for retrospective studies, quality improvement, identifying research cohorts, and member-initiated research.
**Detailed Description:** Longitudinal, multi-center, and non-interventional registry. Patients will be identified as eligible for pulmonary artery pressure sensor implant by a heart failure cardiologist from the heart failure clinic. They will consent for device implant and procedure (right heart catheterization) per standard of care. Patients may also consent to the registry participation, which is optional. They will be informed that the registry intends to gather data and that they may be approached in the future for additional research based on their data and clinical situation. Additionally, patients who underwent pulmonary artery pressure sensor implantation from January 1, 2019, will be identified and consent will be obtained for registry participation, which is optional.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this observational study is to analyze the characteristics of left atrial electroanatomical maps in patients without a history of atrial fibrillation but with a high clinical risk of developing it, as indicated by the presence of structural heart disease or a CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 2 points. The study cohort will be compared to a historical cohort of patients with diagnosed atrial fibrillation in a propensity-matched fashion.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Are the left atrial electroanatomical changes a consequence or a precursor to the development of atrial fibrillation?
* Are the left atrial electroanatomical findings different between patients with atrial fibrillation and those at high risk of developing it?
* What is the prognostic impact of left atrial pathologic changes in patients without diagnosed atrial fibrillation in terms of cardiovascular outcomes?

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Background. Football accounts for 30% of all sports injuries. Muscle injuries in football are the most common non-traumatic and non-contact injuries. A comprehensive approach to injury prevention must consider the design of the footwear and the environmental conditions in which the match is played.
Objective. To assess the risk of injury as a function of footwear and field of play in non-professional football players and to identify the best predictive model of muscle injury in these athletes.
Method. Ambispective cohort study. Ninety-seven players will be recruited. The primary variable will be the number of lower limb muscle injuries in the last 3 seasons. Secondary and modifying variables will be: age, body mass index, boot type, pitch turf, training load and field position. Potential confounding variables will be motivation for choice of footwear, date of muscle injuries, time playing in the category and presence in the starting team. The analysis will calculate the risk of adverse effects in these patients and assess the influence of confounders and trend analysis on the primary variable, stratified by potential confounders.
Expected outcomes. To calculate the risk of muscle injury as a function of anthropometric variables, and footwear and turf type. To identify the predictive model of muscle injuries in football players.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study aims to explore how body fat influences the response to either 25 or 50 mg of daily iron supplements during pregnancy. We will conduct a double-blind randomized controlled intervention study involving 312 pregnant women recruited from antenatal clinics in the Northern Trust Area. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either 25 or 50 mg of iron per day from 12 weeks of pregnancy until delivery, using the Active Iron supplement brand. Blood samples will be collected at 12, 28 and 36 weeks gestation and umbilical cord blood will be collected at delivery. Anthropometric measurements will be taken at each visit, and participants will complete questionnaires on various aspects of health and lifestyle, mental health, gastrointestinal symptoms, and compliance.
**Detailed Description:** The main aim of this study is to investigate the influence of adiposity on the difference in response to 25 or 50 mg of daily iron supplementation during pregnancy. The primary aim is to determine the influence of maternal adiposity on adjusted maternal ferritin concentrations in response to 25 mg or 50 mg iron supplementation in pregnancy. The secondary outcomes of this study include: investigating the impact of maternal body fat on various maternal iron biomarkers (such as haemoglobin, soluble transferrin receptor, hepcidin, transferrin saturation, and other haematological markers) in response to either 25 mg or 50 mg iron supplementation during pregnancy, evaluating changes in adjusted ferritin concentrations and other iron markers throughout pregnancy relative to the dosage of iron supplementation received, determining the effect of maternal body fat on neonatal iron biomarkers in response to maternal iron supplementation, assessing changes in markers of inflammation in response to iron supplementation during pregnancy, and examine changes in mental health scores in response to iron supplementation during pregnancy.
This is a double-blind randomised controlled intervention study, in which 312 pregnant women with singleton pregnancy, without current complications, aged ≥ 18 years and BMI ≥ 18.5 kg/m2 will be recruited. Participants who are taking multivitamins will be included. They will be asked to discontinue any current supplementation. Pregnant women with anaemia, iron deficiency, high risk of iron overload, history of bariatric surgery, who are planning home birth, are currently involved in another research study, and those who cannot speak or understand English language will be excluded.
Blood samples and anthropometric and body composition measurements will be taken at different points in the pregnancy (12, 28, 36 gestational weeks) and an umbilical cord blood sample at the time of birth. Blood concentrations of iron and inflammation markers will be analysed. General, dietary intake and lifestyle information will be collected, through a Health and Lifestyle questionnaire and a 4-day diary. Additionally, participants will complete a questionnaire about their mental health and gastrointestinal symptoms. The compliance of the supplementation will be evaluated at each timepoint. Additionally, participants will receive a telephone call to evaluate possible adverse effects and compliance of the supplementation between the timepoints (18, 24 and 32 weeks of gestation). In the event that a participant has been prescribed iron treatment, anaemia diagnosis at any time during pregnancy or the occurrence of any adverse outcome such as miscarriage, the participant will be withdrawn from the study. Electronic forms prepared in RedCap will be used to collect data.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Premature babies have to deal with many problems from the moment they are born due to the immature of their organs. Their clinical condition is unstable, especially in the first few weeks, and they are greatly affected by environmental factors. During this period, blood transfusion may be needed for many reasons such as intraventricular hemorrhage and necrotizing enterocolitis. In addition, multiple blood draws to evaluate irregular metabolic, hematological and biochemical findings result in anemia and the need for blood transfusion. There are many algorithms regarding blood transfusion indications and transfusion limits in premature babies. However, there are no strict rules regarding the application of warming before blood transfusion, but it is recommended by some guidelines. Especially in unstable babies such as advanced premature babies, it is recommended to give blood by heating it at physiological temperature to avoid important complications such as hypothermia, coagulopathy and rhythm disturbances. Premature babies, whose hemodynamic and metabolic balance is very sensitive, may go into hypothermia when blood and products stored at +4C⁰ are given without heating. In routine practice, blood transfusion is performed without heating. The concern here is that hemolysis may develop by heating the blood. Studies have shown that hemolysis occurs when blood is heated above 46C⁰. In this study, physiological heating is planned. In vitro neonatal experimental modeling has shown that there is no hemolysis with physiological heating.
The aim of the researchers is; While protecting fragile, extremely premature babies from the complications of cold transfusion, the aim is to compare the transfusion groups with and without physiological heating in terms of hemolysis, metabolic balance and cerebral tissue oxygenation.
**Detailed Description:** This trial is planned to be randomized and controlled. Erythrocyte transfusion (ET) will be applied to premature babies born below the 34th gestational week, based on the limit values specified by TND, during Level 3 routine intensive care treatment and follow-up. They will be divided into two groups of 20 babies each: control and study groups. The control group will receive erythrocyte transfusion without heating, which is routinely applied. Heated ET will be performed on the study group by physiological warming between 34-36C⁰.
Procedures to be applied for the working group:
1. ET requirement will be determined in line with the TND guide. It will be transfused at a standard dose of 20 ml/kg. Before ET is performed, blood gas and HTC, K and blood temperature before entering the heater will be measured and recorded.
2. The erythrocyte suspension will be heated between 34-36 C⁰, which is the determined physiological temperature.
3. Before giving it to the baby, 2 ml of blood will be taken through a triple tap and its hematocrit and K value (blood gas) will be checked. It will be given to the baby after the temperature is checked with a body fluid thermometer and determined to be within the appropriate range and if hemolysis is not observed.
4. At the end of the standard transfusion period of 3 hours, all babies will be routinely checked for blood gases, HTC and K.
As standard for all babies during transfusion; Heart rate, blood pressure, saturation and body temperatures will be monitored.
It was planned to investigate whether there was a difference in terms of hypothermia and hemolysis between the groups with and without Physiological Heating. It will be examined whether heated blood has an effect on cerebral tissue perfusion by NIRS monitoring

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study compares conventional impression and cast fabrication to direct/indirect digital scannig and 3D printed casts regarding their accuracy in replicating the peri-implant emergence profile of single implants in the maxillary anterior region (FDI #15-25).
**Detailed Description:** Correct design of the peri-implant emergence profile (EP) is crucial for maintaining the health of the supracrestal complex and long-term success of the implant implant-prosthodontics. After its formation with a provisional restoration, its shape needs to be transferred to the final restoration via conventional elastomeric or digital (direct/indirect) impression taking.
Our aims are to investigate around maxillary anterior single implants in patients with thick gingival phenotype:
1. the accuracy of direct digital impression vs indirect digital impression vs conventional elastomeric impression in capturing the EP and implant position
2. the accuracy of 3D printed cast with conventional gingival mask vs conventional epoxy-resin cast with gingival mask in replicating the EP and implant position
3. the amount of soft tissue collapse at 0,2,10,20 minutes following the removal of the provisional restoration in case of direct EP scanning

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Pain severity is measured using a visual analogue scale, where participants mark the level of back pain they feel on a line between 0 mm and 100 mm(0: no pain, 10: worst pain imaginable).
Measurement unit is in mm, with higher scores considered more painful
**Measure:** Pain severity
**Time Frame:** From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 weeks
**Description:** The Korean version of the Oswestry Disability Index (KODI) is used to assess functional impairment due to low back pain. This assessment consists of 10 items, including pain intensity, personal care, lifting, walking, sitting, standing, sleeping, sexual life, social life, and travel, with each item scored on a scale of 0 to 5 for a total of 50 points. The KODI score is given as a percentage (%) of the total score. Scores are categorised as mild disability (0-20%), moderate disability (21-40%), severe disability (40-60%) and disability affecting all aspects of life (\>60%), with high test-retest reliability (r=0.92).
**Measure:** Functional disability caused by low back pain
**Time Frame:** From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 weeks
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** Flexibility is measured using the sit-to-stand reach test (SRT), which assesses the flexibility of the lower back and hamstrings. The score is the most distant point (cm) reached with the fingertips. The best of three trials should be recorded. Participants sit with their feet on a box, knees straight, and reach as far forward as possible. The posture is maintained for five seconds and the reach distance is recorded over three trials and averaged. The longer the distance in centimeters, the more flexible it is.
**Measure:** Flexibility of lower back and hamstring
**Time Frame:** From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 weeks
**Description:** Muscular endurance is assessed using the supine bridge test (SBT), which requires participants to raise their pelvis to form a straight line from shoulder to knee. The time taken to hold the position is recorded in seconds (sec) and averaged over three trials. The longer time hold is the higher muscular endurance.
**Measure:** Muscular endurance
**Time Frame:** From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 weeks
**Description:** The European Quality of Life 5-Dimensional 5-Level Version (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire is used to assess quality of life. This standardised tool assesses five dimensions: mobility, self-care, activities of daily living, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. General health status is measured using a visual analogue scale (EQ-5D VAS). Scores on the EQ-5D index range from -0.59 to 1, with 1 being the best health. In the absence of a scoring algorithm, a summed scale score was also calculated for both versions to provide additional information about the contribution of the two additional 5L response categories.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The first purpose of the study is to develop and test new methods for quantifying dance among adults with a diagnosis of Parkinson's using various kinds of cameras, wearable activity monitors, and questionnaires. The second reason we are conducting the study is to better understand the relationship between the intensity of dance classes specifically designed for adults with Parkinson's and individual-level factors like the kinds of routine activities one does beyond dancing and one's health status.
Participants in the study may be asked to engage in any of the following activities:
* complete a small number of assessments on their physical and cognitive functioning
* complete their routine group-based dance classes, specifically designed for adults with a diagnosis of Parkinson's, while being recorded
Depending upon the group that a participant joins, one may also be asked to:
* wear an activity monitor on their waist while engaged in their daily business as usual for nine (9) days
* complete an iDXA scan
* describe their perceptions on how the use of technology can integrated into their dancing
**Detailed Description:** Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects an estimated 1 million people in the United States, with the onset of symptoms typically occurring after the age of 50 years old. Adults living with PD experience motor impairments such as postural and gait instability, resting tremor, bradykinesia, and muscular rigidity; cognitive impairment, with an estimated 40% of individuals with PD presenting symptoms of at least mild cognitive impairment; and depression. Furthermore, PD symptom severity is known to increase with age.5 Research has shown that exposures to physical activity (PA) may delay the symptomatic progression of PD, and a recent meta-analysis revealed that engaging in dance, when compared to other modes of PA behavior, confers especial protective benefits across motor and cognitive outcomes. Surprisingly, the PA dose administered across some studies of dance has gone unmeasured and is therefore unknown. This is because various modes of dance are known to elicit different PA intensities, and PA intensity is further influenced by intra-individual factors. Because accurate measures of PA intensity are essential for determining an optimal PA dose within dose-response research, additional research that accurately quantifies the absolute and relative intensities of dance behaviors is needed to advance research on dance and health among adults living with PD.
Of the PD sequela that appear sensitive to dance exposures, studies have demonstrated protective benefits across motor symptoms, in addition to cognitive and mental health outcomes, after 3 - 12 months of participation in dance. However, little is known about the PA intensities of the dance behaviors that led to these reported outcomes, which therefore limits present understanding of the dose of dance required to yield reproducible results. Dance for PD (Collaborator: Leventhal), a codified dance program for adults living with PD, has been well-studied. During a Dance for PD class, participants dance, with music, while in a chair, standing, and while ambulatory. With wide acceptability, Dance for PD offers an ideal experimental paradigm in which to systematically monitor and quantify the intensity of dance behaviors among adults with PD.
Wearable sensors and cameras can be used to estimate PA intensities at individual and group levels. Building upon our prior work, our group is currently collecting camera, wearable sensor, and cardiopulmonary data in an ongoing clinical trial (PI: McCullough) to train algorithms that predict PA intensity during solo, free-form dance behavior. Preliminary results show healthy adults ages 18 to 75, with and without prior dance training, who intend to dance free-form at light-to-moderate intensities engage in dance at an average 4.4-6.0 metabolic equivalent (METs) (i.e., moderate-to-vigorous PA intensities). Age and body mass index are inversely associated with METs, and dancing with music is positively associated with METs. Dance for PD sessions include a range of structured and free-form activities performed with music; their codified framework affords participants multiple opportunities to modulate their PA behavior and intensity in community- and home-based settings. In view of our preliminary results that show multiple factors may impact the PA intensity of dance behavior, additional research is needed to better understand the dose of PA received during Dance for PD sessions. Therefore, we aim to:
1a) Train PA classifiers to detect the absolute and relative PA intensities of Dance for PD sessions within a cohort of N=30 Dance for PD participants in a community-based setting. To test this aim, 2D/3D cameras and triaxial accelerometers will be used to continuously record behavioral and kinematic data during group-based Dance for PD sessions. Indirect calorimeters and wireless heart rate sensors will be used to continuously monitor oxygen uptake and heart rate during multiple Dance for PD sessions. Oxygen uptake and heart rate data will serve as the ground truth, with signal features derived from the camera and wearable sensor data as key predictors. Hypothesis: Sensor-derived signal features can respectively be used to train algorithms to accurately classify the PA intensity of dance during Dance for PD sessions at both individual and group levels.
1b) Estimate associations between PA intensities observed during Dance for PD sessions and respective individual-level factors. To test this aim, estimates of the absolute and relative intensities of Dance for PD (aim 1) exposures will be respectively adjusted for body fat percentage, PD motor symptom severity, years since PD diagnosis, free-living activity, cognitive function, sex, and age. Hypothesis: Adjusting for clinical, demographic, anthropometric, and behavioral covariates will improve the accuracy of PA intensity classifiers.
2) Characterize the relative intensity of Dance for PD sessions within home-based settings. To test this aim, N=30 adults will wear heart rate monitors while engaged in Dance for PD sessions at home. Heart rate data will be used to calculate the relative intensity of home-based Dance for PD sessions. Hypothesis: Engaging in Dance for PD at home will elicit light to moderate intensity physical activity bouts.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Since many intravenous anesthetic agents administered to the mother can cross the placental barrier and cause fetal side effects, multimodal analgesia strategies with peripheral nerve blocks are preffered with greater safety in elective Cesarean section surgeries.
The primary objective of this study is to compare postoperative opioid consumption and pain scores (NRS) in elective cesarean section patients who receive a transversalis fascia plane block versus those who receive surgical site local anesthetic infiltration in addition to spinal anesthesia.
**Detailed Description:** After Cesarean sections, several factors play a role in the formation of postoperative pain, including parietal stimulation originating from the surgical incision, visceral stimulation originating from the peritoneum, and manipulation of intra-abdominal structures.
To enhance patients' rehabilitation during the postoperative period, promote lactation and infant care, and reduce hospital stays, the most appropriate postoperative analgesia method should be selected.
Since many intravenous anesthetic agents administered to the mother can cross the placental barrier and cause fetal side effects, regional anesthesia techniques are preferred with greater safety in elective Cesarean section surgeries.
In the postoperative period, multimodal analgesia strategies can be used for pain control, and one of these strategies is postoperative peripheral nerve blocks. Ultrasound guided transversalis fascia plane block is one of the preferred methods for postoperative analgesia in cesarean section patients.
The primary objective of this study is to compare postoperative opioid consumption and pain scores (NRS) in elective cesarean section patients who receive a transversalis plane block versus those who receive surgical site local anesthetic infiltration in addition to spinal anesthesia.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Given the inadequacies of existing pharmacological interventions for diabetic nephropathy, this study is predicated on the hypothesis that silymarin, having shown promise in mitigating hyperglycemia in diabetic patients without nephropathy and displaying renal protective effects in animal models, merits a thorough and systematic investigation. The current body of research on silymarin, particularly human trials, is limited by small cohorts and the preliminary nature of its outcomes. This research aims to evaluate the efficacy of silymarin as an adjunctive treatment in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) already on renin-angiotensin system inhibitors, focusing on its potential to reduce proteinuria and improve renal function. The ultimate objective is to amass more definitive evidence that could potentially inform a new therapeutic approach in the management of diabetic nephropathy.
**Detailed Description:** After securing the approval from the Ethical Review Board of hospital, this study was conducted in the Nephrology Department, Lahore General Hospital, Lahore. All patients diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus was assessed based on the previously defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Informed consent was obtained from all eligible participants who agreed to participate in the study.
Baseline Data Collection: Upon enrollment, demographic and clinical information including age, gender, duration of diabetes, baseline renal function tests, current medication use, and baseline measures of HBA1c, FBS, RBS and proteinuria were collected. This information was provided a comprehensive profile of each participant at the start of the study.
Treatment Allocation: Patients was randomly assigned into two groups using a lottery method:
* Group A: received 140 mg of silymarin administered orally three times daily, alongside their standard treatment with renin-angiotensin system inhibitors.
* Group B: received placebo capsule three times a day alongside their standard treatment with renin-angiotensin system inhibitors.
Monitoring and Follow-up Assessments: Participants was assessed for outcomes after at one month and 3 months to monitor changes in proteinuria and renal function. Specific tests were included:
* Measurement of Urinary Albumin-Creatinine Ratio (UACR): Participants were required to provide 24-hour urine specimens at one month and three months into the study. To ensure that the urine samples are not affected by external factors, patients was instructed to maintain their usual physical activities and avoid strenuous exercises the evening before the assessment days. Proteinuria was quantified using immunoturbidimetry.
* Assessment of Serum Creatinine and Calculation of eGFR to Monitor Renal Function: The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the CKD-EPI formula at one month and three months. These assessments were help to monitor any changes in renal function over the course of the study.
* Measurement of HbA1c levels after 3 months. The data was recorded meticulously using standardized data collection forms. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 26.0. Baseline characteristics of participants (age, gender, duration of diabetes, baseline renal function tests, HbA1c, FBS, RBS) were summarized using means and standard deviations for continuous variables, and frequencies and percentages for categorical variables. Changes in UACR, eGFR, and HbA1c from baseline to one month and three months were compared between Group A (silymarin) and Group B (placebo) using independent t-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests, depending on the normality of the data. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to adjust for any baseline imbalances and potential confounders between the two groups. Repeated measures ANOVA were employed to analyze changes over time within and between treatment groups for UACR, eGFR, and HbA1c levels, accounting for within-subject correlation over the assessment periods. All statistical tests were two-sided, and a p-value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The EPIC project aims at sustainably improving palliative care for seriously ill patients and their families in ICUs. To this aim, an interdisciplinary consortium is working together to provide a new practical palliative care model using telemedicine. The project is the first European intervention study on palliative care in the ICU using a systems- based approach with proactive patient identification, checklist and blended learning designed to meet the specific needs of ICU staff.
EPIC's vision is to contribute to a change in awareness from a narrow focus on prolonging life to a more holistic approach to care.
The development of blended learning for intensive care staff is the task of Work Package (WP) 3. The aim is to improve the attitude, understanding and self-confidence of ICU staff. Blended learning is to be developed and implemented for this purpose. The aim is to teach the basics of palliative care on a cognitive, affective and psychomotor level.
Due to the international character of the project, it is to be developed in English with subtitles in the local languages. In addition a workshop with patient and family advisors will be conducted.
**Detailed Description:** Background Around 10% of all deceased people in the population die after being admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU). These patients may have distressing symptoms and may receive more intensive life-prolonging treatment than they would have chosen themselves. This can lead to family stress, but also to mental distress among intensive care staff.
The EPIC project aims at sustainably improving palliative care for seriously ill patients and their families in ICUs. To this aim, an interdisciplinary consortium is working together to provide a new practical palliative care model using telemedicine. The project is the first European intervention study on palliative care in the ICU using a systems-based approach with proactive patient identification, checklist and blended learning designed to meet the specific needs of ICU staff. EPIC's vision is to contribute to a change in awareness from a narrow focus on prolonging life to a more holistic approach of care.
Objectives of Work Package (WP) 3 The aim is to improve the attitude, understanding and self-confidence of ICU-staff. Blended learning will be developed and implemented for this purpose. The aim is to teach the basics of palliative care on a cognitive, affective and psychomotor level. Due to the international character of the project, it is to be developed in English with subtitles in the local languages. In addition a workshop with patient and family advisors should conducted.
Development and implementation of blended learning
The blended learning program is to be completed by all ICU staff participating in the study during the crossover period of 4 weeks prior to the intervention. The curriculum will be developed in close collaboration with another work package. The main aim is to teach the standardized EPIC procedures using the following questions:
1. Why is palliative care necessary?
2. When to call for a specialist palliative care consultation?
3. How to message palliative care?
4. What are the critical elements of palliative care in the ICU?
Participants first complete the eLearning programme. This is made available to them via the data-secured open-source platform: BeST, Charite. Participants will then take part in interactive online workshops moderated by the investigators involved in the study. The workshop curriculum also focuses on communication skills training and open questions after the eLearning. Two workshops of 90 minutes each will be offered to allow all ICU staff to participate. In addition, a pocket card for symptom assessment, communication and care planning will be developed and handed out at each workshop.
Evaluation of the impact of the training The evaluation of blended learning takes place at different times. On one hand, the validated CPD Response Questionnaire, a 12-item questionnaire to assess the impact of CPD activities on changes in clinical behavioral intentions, will be used. CPD activities can be used as a way of indicating that new knowledge can lead to changes in practice.
Which changes the investigators want to measure will become apparent during the development of the curriculum.
The comparative self-assessment (CSA) gain is used to evaluate the specific learning effects in relation to the increase in knowledge, attitudes and skills. Here, the participants assess their own increase in knowledge in the post/this assessment. The information is assessed using German school grades (1 = very good, 6 = unsatisfactory). Subsequently, the learning gain on the levels of attitude and knowledge can be calculated as CSA Gain \[%\] = ((MWpre-MWpost)/(Mwpre-1)) x 100.
The learning objectives will be based on the curriculum to be developed, so the questionnaire will also be submitted as an amendment. Both questionnaires will be made available to participants via a link and/or QR code using SoSci Survey tool. The CPD is to be surveyed before and after blended learning and after six months, and the CSA gain after blended learning and also after six months.
The questionnaires are available in English and will be translated back and forth according to the state of the art. Reminders for the follow-up questionnaires will be sent to the participants by e-mail. Results will be communicated to the investigators at other sites and used to update the curriculum after the intervention study has ended.
Conducting and evaluation of the patients and family workshop A co-workshop will be held with patients and relatives to integrate their perspectives and needs in terms of skills and knowledge of professional caregivers. This will then also be evaluated, whereby the content to be developed will provide the items of the evaluation. The evaluation is also collected as an online questionnaire via SoSci.

**Brief Summary:** Online exercise has increased in popularity during the pandemic, but there is no evidence of its feasibility and benefits in older people and the influence of motivational strategies. The main aims of this project are: i) To analyze the influence of applying or not motivational strategies during different physical exercise interventions (face-to-face and online) on the effect on mental health, physical health and adherence, according to sex/gender; ii) To analyze and compare the cost-effectiveness and efficacy of face-to-face and online exercise interventions on mental health, physical health and adherence, according to sex/gender. Participants will be 104 community-dwelling older adults (60-75 years) who will be randomized assigned to control, supervised face to face, supervised face to face plus motivation, synchronous online supervised exercise or synchronous online supervised exercise groups.
The control group will carry out the usual activities they have been doing, and the intervention groups will participate for 24 weeks in multicomponent exercise intervention. Study assessments will be made before starting the intervention, at the end and after 24 weeks of follow-up. Primary variables will be changes in mental and physical health, assessed by the Trail Making Test, the Yesavage Geriatric Depression Scale, and lower extremity power measured by the sit to stand test. Secondary outcomes will include other parameters of mental and physical health, blood markers, physical activity, and cost-effectiveness analysis. The dropout rate, the attendance at the sessions, the injuries and other adverse events suffered by the participants, and technical incidences produced in the online modality will also be recorded.
The results of this project will provide insight into the mental and physical health effects and feasibility of face-to-face and synchronous online supervised physical exercise interventions, and identify older adults' perceptions of the safety, barriers and facilitators of these interventions for future application and transfer to community settings.
**Detailed Description:** Scientific evidence has demonstrated the effects of multicomponent physical exercise on the mental and physical health of community-dwelling older people. Despite this, the interest of some older people in exercise is low and even a low percentage of older people practice it with sufficient frequency and intensity to obtain benefits in their mental and physical health. Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of using motivational strategies to generate adherence to exercise, but there are still no studies with community-dwelling older adults. Furthermore, the Covid-19 pandemic has shown that face-to-face physical exercise is not always possible, so it is necessary to have alternatives in case situations of social isolation and mobility restrictions return. It is also important to note that many older people have difficulty traveling to a sports center or living in rural environments, which makes it difficult to practice exercise regularly. Online exercise has increased in popularity during the pandemic, but there is no evidence of its feasibility and benefits in older people.
The specific aims of this study are:
1. To analyze the influence of applying or not motivational strategies during supervised face-to-face and synchronous online physical exercise interventions on the effect on mental health, physical health and adherence, according to sex/gender in the community setting.
2. To analyze and compare the cost-effectiveness and efficacy of supervised face-to-face and synchronous online exercise interventions vs usual lifestyle on mental health, physical health and adherence, according to sex/gender in the community setting, in short and long term (follow up).
3. To design and evaluate the feasibility of supervised face-to-face and synchronous online exercise interventions and to identify older adults' perceptions of safety, barriers and facilitators of supervised face-to-face and synchronous online physical exercise interventions for future application and transfer to the community setting.
4. To create audio-visual resources that explain how to implement safe face-to-face and synchronous online supervised physical exercise interventions in older men and women that promote adherence, based on scientific evidence, in the community setting.
Participants (N=104 community-dwelling older adults aged 60-75 years) will be randomized assigned to: 1) control, 2)supervised face to face, 3) supervised face to face plus motivation, 4) synchronous online supervised exercise or 5) synchronous online supervised exercise groups.
The control group will carry out the usual activities they have been doing, and the intervention groups will participate for 24 weeks in 3 sessions/week of multicomponent exercise intervention, being performed from home (online groups) or at a sport center, according to the assigned group. Each session will last 60 minutes and will include 10 warm-up and joint mobility exercises, 1 balance exercise, 7 strength exercises, 2 aerobic exercises, and 6 flexibility exercises.
Study assessments will be made before starting the intervention, at the end and after 24 weeks of follow-up. Primary variables will be changes in mental and physical health, assessed by the Trail Making Test, the Yesavage Geriatric Depression Scale, and lower extremity power measured by the sit-to-stand test. Secondary outcomes will include other parameters of mental and physical health, blood markers, physical activity, and cost-effectiveness analysis. We will also record the dropout rate, the attendance at the sessions, the injuries and other adverse events suffered by the participants, and technical incidences produced in the online modality.

**Description:** A cost-effectiveness analysis will be performed to assess the expenses associated with each intervention group, utilizing the EQ-5D questionnaire to evaluate changes in health states.The analysis will focus on the following key metrics, the Quality-Adjusted Life-Year (QALY) and the Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio (ICER).
The Cost-Utility analysis examines an intervention's cost-effectiveness by considering expenses and the impact on patients' quality of life. QALYs provide a comprehensive measure of both the quantity and quality of life, calculated by multiplying the utility weights assigned to each health state by the time spent in that state. The cost per QALY gained is determined by dividing the total intervention costs by the total QALYs gained.
The ICER compares the cost-effectiveness of two interventions by evaluating the difference in costs and effects (QALYs gained). A positive ICER indicates that Intervention A is more expensive and less effective than Intervention B

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there is a difference in best spectacle corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) in patients treated with one of the following two surgeries: (1) cataract surgery with preservation of the diseased endothelial cells ("cataract surgery only experimental intervention, investigational therapy/ arm 1); (2) cataract surgery combined with removal of the diseased endothelial cells and the attached Descemet's membrane followed by transplantation of a healthy endothelial cell layer with attached Descemet's membrane ("triple-DMEK"(""cataract surgery only", control intervention comparator therapy/ arm 2)
**Detailed Description:** After signing the informed consent, patients are screened for eligibility for the trial regarding in- and exclusion criteria. Different tests will be performed like ocular examination including slit lamp examination, fundus examination, IOP measurement, BSCVA, Pentacam imaging, contrast sensivity test and Macula-OCT, vital signs.
Once all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria are met, the patient will be enrolled into the trial and will receive a subject-ID.
If Screening and Baseline assessments cannot be performed on the same day, a Baseline Visit can take place up to 7 days after enrolment of the subject into the clinical trial. At the Baseline Visit different tests will be performed like a Fluorescein stain test. In addition, subjects have to complete vision related quality of life questionnaires.
After all investigations are completed, the subject will be randomised and distributed to the respective treatment groups.
Patients who are enroled in arm 1 undergo exclusively a cataract surgery, in the comparator therapy (arm 2) patients undergo triple-DMEK (cataract surgery and DMEK)
The post-operative Visit will take place 22 weeks ± 14 days after the surgical intervention where different test have to be performed.
The duration of the clinical trial for every individual subject will be up to 24 weeks.

- Procedure: Control group /arm 2: Corneal transplantation as Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK) in combination with cataract surgery (triple-DMEK)
**Label:** Control intervention /arm2
**Type:** OTHER
### Interventions
#### Intervention 1
**Arm Group Labels:**
- Experimental intervention /arm 1
**Description:** Cataract surgery (experimental intervention / arm 1) is performed using a small incision technique. The main incision will be localized between 11 and 12 o'clock and will have a width of 2.4 to 2.8 mm. A tunnel suture will only be placed if there is leakage from the incisions. A thin dispersive viscoelastic is applied to the endothelium for protection before phacoemulsification. A hydrophobic acrylic monofocal IOL will be implanted into the bag.
**Name:** Intervention group /arm 1 (Cataract surgery alone)
**Type:** PROCEDURE
#### Intervention 2
**Arm Group Labels:**
- Control intervention /arm2
**Description:** After cataract surgery DMEK is continued using the surgeon's standard technique for graft implantation and unfolding in triple-DMEK. In all cases the graft will be implanted using the same main incision as for IOL implantation. Once the DMEK graft is unrolled and attached to the posterior corneal stroma the complete anterior chamber will be filled with SF6 20%.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The study aims to investigate the effects of an exercise program applied to patients with scleroderma on functional outcomes (hand and mouth functional results and quality of life).
**Detailed Description:** Systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) is a significant, rare autoimmune connective tissue disease characterized by autoantibodies, fibrosis of the skin and internal organs, microvascular injury and vascular damage due to endothelial cell activation (Sepulveda et al., 2019; Rosendahl et al., 2022). The term "scleroderma" is derived from two Greek words "sklero" and "derma" meaning hard skin (Bielacka et al., 2017; Singh et al., 2019).
The global prevalence of scleroderma is estimated to be between 0.3 and 40 per 100,000 population (Alhendi et al., 2020; Benz et al., 2021; Sierakowska et al., 2019). The occurrence of systemic sclerosis in women is three to five times and in some literature up to eight times higher than in men. The disease incidence peaks between the ages of 30 and 65 (Sierakowska et al., 2019; Hughes et al., 2020; Alhendi et al., 2020).
Impairment of hand functions is one of the most significant disabilities in patients with scleroderma and is commonly observed (Gregory et al., 2019; Mugii et al., 2019). The skin of the hand thickens with manifestations including fingertip ulcers, swelling of the fingers, raynaud's phenomenon and subcutaneous calcium deposition (Abreu et al., 2023). Deformities such as loss of flexion in the metacarpophalangeal joints, loss of extension in the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints, loss of abduction, flexion of the thumb and wrist movement can occur, leading to contractures and severe impairment of hand functions (Bongi \& Rosso, 2016; Vannajak et al., 2014).
Besides hand function impairment, another significant issue in scleroderma is the fibrotic involvement of the connective tissue of the face and mouth. Patients tend to lose facial expression. Sclerosis of the skin around the lips and mouth area causes a reduction in mouth opening (microstomia) and width (microcheilia) in 43% to 80% of cases (Puzio et al., 2019; Uras et al., 2019).
Rehabilitation strategies which play a crucial role in the management of scleroderma, include psychoeducational interventions, exercise therapy, application of physical methods, assistive devices and orthoses; joint protection and energy conservation approaches, dietary interventions and comprehensive multidisciplinary team care programs (Schouffoer et al., 2011). Among these interventions daily hand exercises are specifically mentioned to improve hand movement and function, and also mouth and facial exercises positively affect mouth opening function (Gregory et al., 2019). Hand rehabilitation enhances hand movement, functionality and strength, as well as participation in daily life activities such as self-care, housework, work and recreational activities, thereby improving quality of life (Bongi \& Rosso, 2016). Exercises that stretch the mouth and increase mouth opening are reported to prevent the progression of microstomia and reduce limitations in mouth opening (Puzio et al., 2019; Yuen et al., 2012). Some approaches and techniques involving active exercises for managing microstomia are suggested, indicating success with the performance of mandibular movements (Puzio et al., 2019).
Programs that include hand and oral rehabilitation interventions are needed to prevent hand deformities and oral dysfunctions, ensure positive body perception, provide coping strategies and maintain quality of life (Schouffoer et al., 2011; Vannajak et al., 2014). However, individuals with a rare disease such as scleroderma face many challenges, including lack of knowledge about the disease, difficulties in accurate diagnosis and limited treatment and support options. Professional support services that are usually provided to individuals with more common diseases are not available for scleroderma patients (Delisle et al., 2019).
Scleroderma is a chronic disease that affects multiple systems and can present numerous symptoms and complications, impacting individuals physically, psychologically and socially. Therefore, the care of patients with scleroderma requires an interdisciplinary holistic health approach that encompasses both physical and emotional support. The rarity of scleroderma, the fact that many patients live far from physical therapy and rehabilitation clinics or the necessity of continuous participation in a program necessitates the implementation of nurse-led home programs (Murphy et al., 2018).

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Only 24.9% of the Belgian adults (25-50 years) with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) achieve a good glucose control. This can be explained by the challenging day-to-day diabetes management which places a substantial burden on this population. However, a tight glycemic control is fundamental in order to prevent the development of acute and chronic complications. Despite the added value of continue glucose monitors to glucose control, optimizing daily glucose levels is still problematic in adults with T1DM. In addition to self-monitoring of blood glucose, a healthy lifestyle with sufficient physical activity (PA), limited sedentary behavior (SB) and sufficient sleep time and quality is crucial for a good glucose control. A recent shift in health promotion stresses the importance of considering all these behaviors (i.e. PA, SB and sleep) in one 24-hour day instead of focusing on one behavior in isolation. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between the day-by-day 24h-MB patterns of adults (25-50 years) with T1DM and their intra-day glucose control (i.e. time in range and coefficient of variation) on the one hand. On the other hand, associations between he 24-h MB patterns and explanatory variables and cardiometabolic health markers will be investigated. To gain insight into the 24-hour behavior of adults with type 1 diabetes, 150 adults with type 1 diabetes will wear an Actigraph accelerometer, for 14 consecutive days. Daily glucose control will be measured using the participant's continuous glucose meter. Information about the explanatory variables and cardiometabolic health will be obtained by means of a questionnaire, diary and a few measurements (blood pressure, weight, length, Advanced Glycation Endproducts, hip-and waist circumference) during a one-off visit to one of the recruitment- and testing centers namely University hospital of Ghent or University hospital of Antwerp. The results of this cross-sectional study will inform future interventions focusing on the 24-hour movement behaviors in adults with T1DM.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** Despite significant advances in patient blood management, cardiac surgery remains a surgical procedure at high risk for bleeding. Numerous perioperative blood conservation strategies have been developed for limiting the use of blood products. Among them, the processing of shed blood and residual cardiopulmonary bypass circuit volume with autotransfusion device is routinely used. Conventional centrifugation-based autotransfusion devices actually available only recover red blood cells while platelets and coagulation factors are almost totally lost. Consequently, large amounts of intraoperative cell salvage could significantly alter perioperative haemostasis. The SAME autotransfusion device (i-SEP, France) is a new and innovative filtration-based autotransfusion device able to recover erythrocytes, leukocytes but also platelets. By offering the opportunity to re-infuse to patients their own platelets in addition red blood cells, significantly improve perioperative haemostasis with this new device is expected. The purpose of the COLTRANE trial is to compare the quality of the perioperative haemostasis in cardiac surgical patients for whom intraoperative cell salvage will be performed using either the SAME autotransfusion device or conventional centrifugation-based device.
Because allogenic transfusion of blood products as well as surgical re-exploration for excessive bleeding are associated with poor outcomes and prolonged length of stay, the use of filtration-based SAME device by maintaining perioperative haemostasis could improve outcomes and reduce length of stay of high risk patients. The fact that patients receive their own platelets should also limit the risk of allo-immunization and immunomodulation which is recognized as one of the underlying mechanisms of perioperative increased risk of infection.
**Detailed Description:** The SAME device is a new and innovative filtration-based autotransfusion device able to recover both erythrocytes and platelets. A multicentre single-arm clinical feasibility and safety trial conducted by our group, using SAME device on 50 cardiac surgical patients reported erythrocyte yield per cycle of 89%, post-treatment hematocrit of 43% with an excellent washing performance. In addition, the device recovered 52% of platelets, that were found unaltered by the device as demonstrated by a limited platelet activation and a strong response to thrombin-pathway stimulation assessed by flow cytometry. By offering the opportunity to re-infuse to the patients their own platelets in addition to their RBC, this new device might significantly improve perioperative haemostasis and thus decrease the need for blood products. It is well established that severe postoperative bleeding and blood products transfusion lead to increase morbidity and mortality. Consequently, an improvement of postoperative outcomes and a decrease in intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital length of stay may be expected. The fact that patients receive their own platelets should limit the risk of allo-immunization and immunomodulation which is recognized as one of the underlying mechanisms of perioperative increased risk of infection. Consequently, a reduction of infectious complication may be also expected.
The purpose of COLTRANE trial is to test the hypothesis that the intraoperative use of the filtration-based SAME autotransfusion device could improve perioperative haemostasis thereby reducing the proportion of patients exhibiting clinically significant perioperative bleeding (moderate to massive bleeding according the Universal Definition of Perioperative Bleeding (UDPB) classification).

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This study examines the role of craniofacial dimensions and self-evaluation thereof in the protection afforded by masks commonly worn by the public as protection against aerosol contaminants. The effectiveness of instructions for self-evaluation of craniofacial dimensions will be tested against standard digital and manual craniometric methods.
Approximately 500 (18-70 year old) subjects of any gender.
After consenting to participate in the study, subjects will use a short self-assessment questionnaire to measure their craniofacial dimensions, and have their face measured using standard anthropological techniques and a 3D camera. They will then enter a chamber containing an atmosphere of aerosolized salt particles where the fitted filtering efficiency of 2 types of face masks will be measured briefly. Participation time is approximately 60 minutes.
**Detailed Description:** Wearing a face mask is a primary protection strategy against airborne infectious agents as well as toxic aerosols such as wildfire smoke. Despite the ubiquitous presence of masks in public life in recent years, the average person has a poor understanding of factors that influence the fitted performance of the face coverings that they wear. This problem is exacerbated by the lack of mask fit testing available to the public outside of occupational settings subject to regulation. As a result, the vast majority of the population currently wears masks with limited knowledge of their efficacy or the means to acquire it. A simple, validated method to quantitatively self-assess individual craniofacial dimensions relative to that of the general population will permit members of the public to make informed decisions about the types of mask that they wear in specific risk situations, and whether to use fit enhancements to optimize their fitted performance. In addition to limiting the morbidity associated with exposure to poor air quality, an individualized improvement in the efficacy of mask will have a multiplicative effect in the prevention of the transmission of infectious vectors.
Subjects who are not excluded from the initial screening will be scheduled for consenting at the EPA Human Studies Facility (HSF). At the start of the visit, the study protocol will be outlined, and informed consent obtained to initiate enrollment into the study. There will be one session in this study. Consenting subjects will proceed immediately to the participation phase.
Consenting: There will be one (1) study consent form (form FF2.0 1). This consent form must be signed by the participant and the study team member obtaining informed consent. The subjects may ask any questions they have regarding their participation in the study at any time prior to or during their participation. Persons with child-bearing potential will be required to self-administer a pregnancy test in a private bathroom. Those who self-administer a pregnancy test will have to confirm the results on the consent form in order to proceed to the study phase.
Behavioral questionnaire: Subjects will complete a short questionnaire (Form FF2.0 2) that asks about their predisposition to wear a face mask under a variety of scenarios. This information will be used to guide public health communications during air quality emergencies.
Assessment of self-evaluation instructions for craniofacial measurements: Subjects will use instructions presented in a self-evaluation form (Form FF2.0 3) to measure their own craniofacial dimensions using the rulers provided and a mirror. Subjects will receive no assistance with completing the self-assessment form. At intervals of approximately, 10-40 subjects, measurements obtained in the self-evaluation will be compared to the craniofacial measurements obtained by a study team member. The results of the comparison will be used to guide revisions of the instruction in the self-evaluation form in an iterative manner. The protocol will be amended accordingly to update changes to the self-evaluation instructions.
Craniofacial measurements: A 3 D scan of the subjects' face and head will be obtained by aligning the head inside of an oval shown on a tablet screen. The image takes about 3 seconds to generate and subjects will be asked to move their head slightly. In addition, manual measurement of 4-8 craniofacial dimensions will be taken by a study team member using calipers and a tape measure.
Lung Function Test. Participants will complete a breathing test (peak flow meter) before and after the facemask testing. Study personnel will coach the participant to take a full breath in and then blow it out as hard and fast as they can. They may be asked to do this up to five times. This test measures the volume of air they can blow out (exhale) quickly after taking a very deep breath. This is a method to measure lung function before and after the testing procedure for safety purposes. The investigators will stop the study and not complete the mask fit testing if the participant's peak expiratory flow (as measured with the peak flow meter) is not ≥ 80.0% of their predicted value based on their age, height, and weight.
Assessment of filtering face piece (FFP) use: The range of variability that exists in the subject population while wearing two different types of face coverings will be assessed. Masks will consist of a KN95 mask and a surgical/procedure mask. The fitted filtration efficiency of each mask will be measured using aerosolized sodium chloride particles (mean aerodynamic diameter 0.040 microns) emitted by a particle generator. During the fit testing, the concentration of aerosolized saline particles emitted by a TSI Particle Generator will be approximately 5000-30000 particles/cc of air. The temperature in the chamber will vary between 20 and 30 oC, the relative humidity will be maintained at approximately 50 %.
The subject will remain seated in the chamber and complete a modified version the Occupational Safety and Health Administration Quantitative Fit Testing Protocol (Modified Ambient Aerosol CNC Quantitative Fit Testing Protocol for Filtering Facepiece TableA-2-RESPIRATORS). The subject will then move their head from left to right, taking two breaths at each extreme for 30 seconds. This will be followed by moving the head up and down, taking two beaths at each extreme for 30 seconds. The procedure will be repeated after the addition of a clip to the ear-loops of the mask behind the neck of the subject. In total, the testing time for the 2 masks with and without clip will be approximately 6 minutes.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** A mask fit procedure will be performed based on an OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration)- approved protocol during the baseline visit. The efficiency of masks will be determined by a percentage of particle number measured behind the facemask over the particle number in the ambient air. Mask fit efficiency values from different levels of mask fit instructions will be compared.
**Measure:** Fitted Filtration Efficiency
**Time Frame:** During fitting procedure (90 seconds for each condition)
**Description:** Cranial morphology will be assessed using a self-evaluation that guides participants on how to measure five dimensions of their head/face including: nose length, nose arc, face width, neck circumference, and ear breadth. Participants will record their measurement for each cranial/facial features using the instructions provided on the self-evaluation form. Investigators will then use the five recorded values to cluster each participant into one of four categories of overall face and head shape/size.
**Measure:** Cranial Morphology- Self Evaluation
**Time Frame:** The self-evaluation will take approximately ten minutes and be filled out once during the study visit (Day 1).
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** Calipers will be used to measure craniofacial features of each subject. Trained personnel (wearing gloves) will need to touch areas of the subject's face and scalp to ensure proper caliper measurements are collected. Measurements to be collected include: nose length, face width, neck circumference, and ear breadth. All measurements have a common unit (cm).
**Measure:** Cranial Morphology- Caliper Measurement
**Time Frame:** The craniometric assessment will take approximately 5 minutes and be completed before the fit testing procedure.
**Description:** Subjects will self-administer a 3D scan of their face by aligning their head inside of an oval shown on the camera screen, triggering the camera shutter. The image takes about 3 seconds to generate and subjects will be asked to remain still during this time. The acquired facial images will be analyzed using digital image analysis software. The images will be analyzed to measure the participant's nose gap area.
**Measure:** Cranial Morphology- 3D Imaging
**Time Frame:** The 3D imaging will take approximately 5 minutes and be completed before the fit testing procedure.
**Description:** Subjects will take a brief questionnaire regarding their masking behavior and perceptions of masks. The questionnaire will also ask participants to rate how big/small they think their head length, width, and size is compared to adults of the same age/gender. The survey is comprised of 34 questions that fall into the following sections: sociodemographic information, mask perception, experience with mask usage, knowledge of particulate matter vs. volatile organic compounds, and perception of face shape and size. All questions consist of four or five point likert scales corresponding to ordinal scores (No Impact to Significant Impact, 1-5)(Most Likely to Least Likely, 1-4). All questions correspond to the participant's knowledge or perception and are recorded on an ordinal scale and thus the survey has no "directionality".
**Measure:** FaceFit 2.0 Face Filtering PIece Usage Survey
**Time Frame:** This survey will take about five minutes and be completed before the mask fit testing.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This goal of this study is to determine whether a novel biologic, i.e., an "amniotic suspension allograft" (ASA) will reduce pain and improve quality of life (QoL) in women stricken with chronic pelvic pain (CPP). The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Weather pain in the genitalia is reduced with treatment
* Weather bladder or urination pain is reduced with treatment
* Weather any adverse events occur following treatment Patient responses to pain and QoL will be collected before and 6-12 months after treatment.
**Detailed Description:** This is an observational study and is driven by the hypothesis that novel biologic, i.e., an "amniotic suspension allograft" (ASA) will reduce pain and improve quality of life in women stricken with chronic pelvic pain (CPP). This clinical trial is performed in a hospital-based practice at Thomas Jefferson University in which all patients over the age of 18 presenting with clinically defined CPP will be accepted into the study and therefore all patients will be treated with the ASA; no patients with CPP will be excluded from the study. This small study is not funded so the patients will not be randomized and there will not be any "control" subjects receiving placebo instead of the ASA product. Upon arriving to the hospital, but just prior to treatment, all patients will be asked to fill out a consent form and a pre-procedure questionnaire regarding pain, discomfort and quality of life issues they've been experiencing prior to treatment. They will then be brought into the operating room, placed in the lithotomy position, and briefly anesthetized (15-30 min). Once anesthetized, the urogynecologist will feel for an opening in the pelvic bone (ischium) by inserting her fingers into the vagina. The opening (Alcock's canal) in the ischium exposes the pudendal nerve which carries pain signals from the vagina and nearby tissues to the brain's pain centers. Once the medial aspect of Alcock's canal is clearly identified by the doctor's fingers, a 6 inch pudendal trumpet needle will be advanced through the vaginal wall and guided and placed near the pudendal nerve in Alcock's canal. A solution of the ASA along with sterile saline and the anesthetic marcaine (5 cc total) will be injected so as to infiltrate the pudendal nerve with this mixture. Marcaine is used to help suppress any acute pain that may occur in the few hours after treatment. Both the left and right pudendal nerves will be thusly treated. When the patients awaken, they will receive a drink of choice and light snack like gram crackers or biscuits. When fully awake the patients will be allowed to leave the hospital accompanied with a companion, but not allowed to drive until the full effects of the anesthesia has worn off several hours later. From beginning to end, this procedure takes approximately one hour. To determine the extent to which any pain relief and quality of life have improved, or not, answers to a follow-up questionnaire will be solicited from each participating patient by telephone approximately 6 to 12 months after treatment. The questionnaire contains 14 questions addressing pain and discomfort, urination and impact of symptoms and takes about 10 minutes to compete. To protect patient privacy the data will be entered into an Excel spreadsheet with the patients' names replaced by a number and date of birth replaced with just their age. The data will be digitized, analyzed and statistical significance will be evaluated buy a biostatistician. This study has been approved by the institutional review board (protocol number: 18D.719) prior to beginning.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this longitudinal observational study is to learn if impulse oscillometry (IOS) has an added value in asthma monitoring in adult asthma patients who are prescribed a change in asthma maintenance therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Is there a difference in the change in IOS parameters and FEV1 respectively, stratified according to change in asthma control test?
* Is there a difference in the change in IOS parameters and FEV1 respectively, stratified according to change in other questionnaire such as the asthma control questionnaire and the asthma quality of life questionnaire.
* Are the proposed minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) valid for short follow-up periods (3 - 6 months)?
Participants will undergo lung function testing (full lung function, multiple breath nitrogen washout, impulse oscillometry) and questionnaires (asthma control test, asthma control questionnaire, asthma quality of life questionnaire), once during the baseline visit and once during the follow-up visit three to six months later.

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** The PASI90 response assessments are based on at least 90% improvement in the PASI score from Baseline. This is a scoring system that averages the redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic lesions (on a 0-4 scale), and weights the resulting score by the area of skin involved. Body divided into 4 areas: head, arms, trunk to groin, and legs to top of buttocks. Assignment of an average score for the redness, thickness, and scaling for each of the 4 body areas with a score of 0 (clear) to 4 (very marked). Determining the percentage of skin covered with PSO for each of the body areas and converting to a 0 to 6 scale. Final PASI= average redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic skin lesions, multiplied by the involved psoriasis area score of the respective section, and weighted by the percentage of the person's affected skin for the respective section. The minimum possible PASI score is 0= no disease, the maximum score is 72= maximal disease.

#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** The PASI75 response assessments are based on at least 75% improvement in the PASI score from Baseline. This is a scoring system that averages the redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic lesions (on a 0-4 scale), and weights the resulting score by the area of skin involved. Body divided into 4 areas: head, arms, trunk to groin, and legs to top of buttocks. Assignment of an average score for the redness, thickness, and scaling for each of the 4 body areas with a score of 0 (clear) to 4 (very marked). Determining the percentage of skin covered with PSO for each of the body areas and converting to a 0 to 6 scale. Final PASI= average redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic skin lesions, multiplied by the involved psoriasis area score of the respective section, and weighted by the percentage of the person's affected skin for the respective section.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The study aims to evaluate if enhancing the mental health of refugee mothers can make them better able to implement new farming methods that are meant to improve food security in the face of climate change. It is a cluster-randomized controlled trial involving 900 pairs consisting of refugee mothers and their children aged 36-59 months, living in Nakivale refugee settlement in Uganda. The mothers will be randomly assigned to one of three groups:
* Control group: Mothers will receive Enhanced Usual Care (EUC).
* HGI group: Mothers will receive the Home Gardening Intervention, consisting of training and supplies for home gardening.
* HGI/SH+ group: Mothers will receive both the Home Gardening Intervention and the Self-Help Plus mental health intervention.
The main goal is to see if the gardening program alone can reduce food insecurity after 12 months compared to the EUC control group. It also aims to see if reducing psychological distress by adding the mental health component boosts the effects of the gardening intervention.
Secondary goals are to look at impacts on dietary diversity, child malnutrition, and mothers' mental health levels across all three groups.
The study also gathers survey data on participant mothers' migration history, social capital, exposure to potentially traumatic events, exposure to natural hazards and environmental stressors, mental health, and parenting style. Both mothers and their children will furthermore play incentivized economic games to measure their economic preferences (time, risk, social preferences). Additionally, the study will assess childrens' wellbeing and functioning. Children will also be asked to carry out gamified tasks designed to measure their cognitive development.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** This project aims to test a culturally appropriate assistive technology (AT) intervention called VIVE-AT to help older Latinos with disabilities improve their function and quality of life. The researchers will first refine the VIVE-AT program based on feedback from a Community Advisory Board and focus groups with older Latinos with disabilities. Then, 76 older Latinos with disabilities will be recruited from a primary care clinic serving low-income communities in Puerto Rico. They will be randomly assigned to either receive the VIVE-AT intervention in the primary care clinic or be placed on a waitlist with regular phone calls. All participants will continue to receive standard care at the clinic.
**Detailed Description:** Functional disabilities (FDs), defined as difficulties in performing daily activities, constitute a significant public health problem associated with increased dependency, poor health outcomes, diminished quality of life, institutionalization, and premature death. Older Latinos residing in Puerto Rico (PR) are disproportionately affected by FDs, with one of the highest rates of FDs (58%) in the US and its territories. Research has demonstrated positive outcomes from employing assistive technology (AT) devices, such as jar openers, sock aids, and canes, among older adults with FDs, thereby enhancing their functioning, participation, and capacity to remain at home or in the community for a longer period. However, Latinos are among the least likely to utilize AT. Given the dearth of culturally competent assistive technology interventions for Latinos, along with the scarcity of rehabilitation professionals and assistive technology services in primary healthcare facilities, this project leverages preliminary data from a prior study that assessed the feasibility of the Viviendo las Ventajas de la Asistencia Tecnológica; (VIVE-AT for short; Living the Advantages of Assistive Technologies) intervention. The specific aims of this project are to:
1. refine the protocol of the VIVE-AT to align with the unique needs of the primary health care clinic;
2. assess the efficacy of the VIVE-AT in comparison to a waitlist control arm, in decreasing FDs and improving the quality of life among Latinos aged ≥65 years post-intervention and at six months;
3. evaluate whether proposed mechanisms of change in FDs, specifically knowledge of AT, motivation for using AT, self-efficacy for using AT, and use of AT, account for the reduction in FDs post-intervention.
To achieve these aims, the interdisciplinary team of this project will first refine the intervention based on recommendations from participants in the feasibility study, as well as input from the Community Advisory Board and older Latinos with FDs through iterative focus groups (Aim 1). Subsequently, 76 older Latinos with physical FDs recruited from a primary health care facility serving low-income communities in PR will be randomly assigned to either the VIVE-AT intervention group (n=38) or a waitlist + attention calls controlled condition group (n=38) to assess its efficacy and mechanisms of change (Aims 2 and; 3). All participants will receive standard usual care at the primary health care center. Participants in the intervention group will attend a weekly, two-hour group session for 6 weeks, facilitated by trained healthcare workers, focusing on self-management of FDs through the use of AT. Additionally, participants will receive up to five AT devices tailored to their specific FI needs, along with training on their usage. All participants will be assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and six months after intervention. The goals of the VIVE-AT are to encourage participants to use AT devices to self-manage their FDs and improve their quality of life. Our approach will contribute to scientific knowledge and inform a subsequent scalable multisite Hybrid Type I RCT, designed to evaluate its effectiveness in reducing physical FDs among older Latinos in primary healthcare settings in the U.S. and P.R.

**Brief Summary:** To investigate the variations of Donor Specific Antibodies in kidney transplant patients based on the type of immunosuppressive therapy adopted and immunosuppressive blood levels.
**Detailed Description:** Retrospective observational monocentric study at the U.O.C. of Hepatobiliary Surgery and Transplants of Tor Vergata Polyclinic. All kidney transplant patients in the indicated study period will be enrolled and followed at the U.O.C. clinic.
For each patient, demographic, transplant and post-transplant data will be collected. In the latter, data relating to dnDSA will be registered, searching for a possible triggering cause at the anamnestic level.
The dosage of dnDSA is performed in common clinical practice in a routine manner in all patients undergoing kidney transplant, using the method "Flow cytometric analysis using FlowPRA Screening Test and/or Luminex Single Antigen Beads class I and II- IgG (cut- positivity off = MFI\> 1000)".
The blood dosage of the immunosuppressor is measured during routine checks and a comparison is made between Tacrolimus-based immunosuppressive therapy and other immunosuppressive therapy, highlighting the differences in the risk of developing dnDSA and in graft and patient survival.

**Brief Summary:** The goal of this clinical trial is to compare effectiveness between epidural combined with TAP block versus epidural alone in gynaecology operation participant .The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:
* what is the pain score for both groups
* what is the requirement of epidural infusion between the 2 groups Participants will be given general anesthesia for the operation with the epidural insertion prior to induction. Patient will be randomized into epidural plus TAP block or epidural alone for the study. The US TAP block will be given at the end of operation prior to extubation.
Researchers will compare pain score, epidural infusion requirment between the two groups.
**Detailed Description:** The research is a prospective randomized control study. It is blinded study as accessor is blinded whereby the acute pain service (APS) team will be reviewing patient postoperatively.
Study size of 46 subjects based on repeated measure ANOVA between factor , alpha value 0.05% with 80% power study, a dropout 10%. Divided into 2 groups ; Group E - epidural alone, Group T - epidural plus bilateral US TAP block.
Perioperatively, epidural catheter will be inserted then induction for general anesthesia given. Intraoperatively anesthesia maintain with inhalation agent. Prior to extubation, bilateral TAP block is provided using portable US guidance. At this location, the 3 layers of anterior abdominal wall is visualized for the truncal block. Post operatively, participant will be given epidural cocktail bupivacaine 0.1% + fentanyl 2mcg/ml infusion for next 24hrs.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The idea for this study came from the research team's current study called Transitioning Youth Out of Homelessness (TYOH) 2.0, which provides coaching and a leadership guide to youth transitioning out of homelessness. Based on feedback from youth and coaches involved in that study, the research team plans to make small changes to the leadership guide and see if it works better as an in-person, four-week leadership program.
All participants in this study will be invited to attend an in-person, four-week leadership program. There will be two programs running at the same time: one in St. Catharines and one in Toronto. The goal is to have 15 participants in each program.
The main purpose of the study is to learn what participants think of the program. The second purpose is to see if there are changes in identity capital (feeling a sense of purpose and confidence in achieving goals) and knowledge about things that are covered in the program, when the research team compares participants' answers at the beginning and at the end of the program.
**Detailed Description:** This project builds on the research team's current community-based randomized clinical trial (Transitioning Youth Out of Homelessness 2.0) utilizing coaching and a co-designed leadership guide to target identity capital (purpose, control, self-efficacy, and self-esteem) for youth transitioning out of homelessness (all participants are also receiving rent subsidies). Based on preliminary feedback from study youth and coaches involved in the intervention arm, the research team will modify the leadership guide and pilot it in the form of an in-person, four-week leadership program (vs. independent learning in the current study).
The overarching objective of this mixed methods pilot project is to co-develop and test a strengths-based leadership program targeting identity capital for youth (16-24 years of age) transitioning out of homelessness. Specifically, the objectives are to:
1. Modify the leadership guide being used in the research team's current study so it can be delivered as an in-person leadership program.
2. Co-develop and pilot a four-week, strengths-based leadership program for young people transitioning out of homelessness.
3. Determine the feasibility and acceptability of the leadership guide when delivered as a four-week, in-person program (as opposed to independent learning in the current study).
4. Examine whether self-reported measures of identity capital and knowledge of program material show improvement immediately post-program compared to baseline.
5. Explore whether there are differences in outcomes by sub-groups (e.g., gender, age, identification as 2SLGBTQ+, child welfare involvement) and/or program participation levels.
If this modified delivery of the leadership guide shows promise, the research team plans to incorporate it into a national scale-up alongside rent subsidies and coaching.

### Outcomes Module
#### Other Outcomes
**Description:** A baseline demographic questionnaire will be utilized (T1), session attendance will be tracked throughout the intervention (T1-T2), and focus group findings will be examined (T2).
The baseline demographic questionnaire is a 18-item self-report measure that was developed for this study and explores domains related to: age; gender; race/ethnicity; sexual orientation; immigration status; child welfare involvement; homelessness entrenchment; education; social support; financial support; and food security.
**Measure:** Explore whether there are differences in outcomes by sub-groups (e.g., gender, age, identification as 2SLGBTQ+, child welfare involvement) and/or program participation levels.
**Time Frame:** Assessed at T1 (first day of intervention) and T2 (last day of intervention).
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** Quantitative measures consisting of recruitment/enrolment/attendance/dropout metrics will be utilized.
The recruitment rate will be estimated as the proportion of contacted individuals who express interest in participating in the study (T0).
The enrolment rate will be calculated as the proportion of recruited individuals who are eligible and consent to participate in the study (T0).
Session attendance and dropout rates will be tracked throughout the intervention (T1-T2).
**Measure:** Intervention feasibility and acceptability as assessed by recruitment/enrolment/attendance/dropout metrics.
**Time Frame:** Assessed at T0 (pre-intervention), T1 (first day of intervention) and T2 (last day of intervention).
**Description:** This 4-item anonymous questionnaire will be used to collect information about participants' view of the leadership program, the impact of the program on them, and their view of the individuals running the program.
**Measure:** Intervention feasibility and acceptability as assessed by a composite program feedback questionnaire.
**Time Frame:** Assessed at T2 (last day of intervention).
**Description:** Focus group discussions will explore intervention feasibility and acceptability (T2).
**Measure:** Intervention feasibility and acceptability as informed by focus groups.
**Time Frame:** Assessed at T2 (last day of intervention).
#### Secondary Outcomes
**Description:** The MAPS20 is a 20-item validated self-report measure that explores domains related to identity capital: self-esteem; purpose in life; internal locus of control; self-efficacy/ego strength. Score range: 20-120; score of less than 71 indicates risk/vulnerability of being overwhelmed by any adverse circumstances (internal consistency of four sub-scales α = .61-.75; T1/T2).
**Measure:** Change in self-reported measures of identity capital as assessed by the Multi-Measure Agentic Personality Scale (MAPS20).
**Time Frame:** Assessed at T1 (first day of intervention) and T2 (last day of intervention).
**Description:** The composite knowledge assessment scale is 16-item self-report measure that was developed for this study and explores domains related to self-leadership, such as: mindfulness; core values; purpose; goal setting; growth mindset; identity; and courage (T1/T2).
**Measure:** Change in self-reported knowledge of program material as assessed by a composite knowledge assessment scale.
**Time Frame:** Assessed at T1 (first day of intervention) and T2 (last day of intervention).
### Eligibility Module
**Eligibility Criteria:** Eligible young people aged 16-24 years who have transitioned out of homelessness (e.g., no longer living in a shelter or couch surfing), defined as 3 consecutive months within the past 12 months, will be identified by community partners (note: for the purpose of this study, youth living in foster care will be considered homeless).
This age mandate was chosen because this is the age group served by the community partners. The research team has chosen to target the first year of exiting homelessness because collective experience has shown that this can be a particularly precarious time for youth in terms of mental health challenges and risk of (re)experiencing homelessness (even if youth have attempted exits in the past).
Inclusion Criteria:
* Be able to provide free and informed consent.
* Be able to understand English (leadership program and data collection will be conducted in English).
* Have experienced homelessness (e.g., unstable housing arrangements including shelter stays, foster care, and couch surfing) for 3 consecutive months in the past 12 months.
* Be able to consistently attend the four-week leadership program.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Enrolled in a program or study with similar features to the TYOH 2.5 leadership program.

### Description Module
**Brief Summary:** The goal of this study is to validate a new method for the assessment of orofacial muscles in FSHD affected individuals, using maximal expiratory pressures (MEPs).
Our hypothesis is the following:
- The pressure drop observed when using circular mouthpieces (versus ovoid mouthpieces) is a reflection of orofacial dysfunction in FSHD affected individuals

### Outcomes Module
#### Primary Outcomes
**Description:** The pressure drop (PD) is defined as the pressure difference between a reference ovoid-shaped mouthpiece and variously-sized circular mouthpieces, divided by the reference pressure. It is a relative value that is expected to reflect the magnitude of orofacial muscle dysfunction in FSHD affected individuals.
**Measure:** The pressure drop
**Time Frame:** The pressure drop will be assessed for each study participant at visit 1 and subsequently at visit 2 (3 months later). The measurements as such, should take about 30 minutes for each participant
