Each year over 20,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer in Canada with the majority undergoing some form of treatment option. Radical prostatectomy and/or radiation therapy are common procedures that are effective in the treatment of prostate cancer. However, they typically incur both short- and long-term side effects (e.g. urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction, reduced physical function, etc) that can negatively impact one's quality of life. This program of research aims to address the most critical needs of PC survivors: the development and evaluation of interventions to address the quality of life impact of PC. This study will test the Prostate Cancer Patient Empowerment Program (PC-PEP) in 400 men, a comprehensive intervention aimed at educating and teaching the men life skills/habits in order to improve their mental health issues, fitness levels and overall quality of life, and to decrease treatment related side effects. The program also aims to improve the overall health of the participants in the long term.

This is a prospective longitudinal cohort study whereby pregnant individuals are asked to complete an 8-day testing protocol to measure their sleep and cardiovascular health at two timepoints during pregnancy.

Agitation and aggression impose a tremendous burden on the individuals living with dementia, their families, caregivers, and healthcare systems. Neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia (NPS) affect up to 80% of patients with Alzheimer's dementia (AD). The mechanisms of agitation in AD are poorly understood and the current interventions are only modestly effective while having serious adverse effects. In this study, the investigators propose to assess the mechanisms and treatment of neuropsychiatric symptoms in AD with the use of non-invasive, brain stimulation approaches. By applying magnetic stimulation to the surface of the head (transcranial magnetic stimulation - TMS) combined with electroencephalography (EEG), the investigators will be able to study the mechanisms of agitation and advance our understanding of AD. Further, the investigators will evaluate if transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is effective to treat agitation dementia.

A two-centre prospective cohort phase III study of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging in specific patient populations: 1. Adults patients (≥18 years old) with a history of radical prostatectomy for treatment of prostate cancer, and a serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) ≥ 0.2 mcg/L 2. Adult patients with a history of radiotherapy, cryotherapy, or brachytherapy for treatment of prostate cancer, and a serum PSA progressively rising to ≥ 2 mcg/L (minimum two samples) OR a serum PSA doubling time of \< 9 months 3. Adult patients with a history of biopsy-proven prostate cancer and high-risk features for metastatic disease prior to treatment with radical prostatectomy, radiotherapy, cryotherapy, or brachytherapy. High-risk features include a Gleason score ≥ 7, serum PSA ≥ 20 mcg/L, OR minimum clinical T-stage T2c 4. Adult patients who do not meet criteria 1-3 but in whom a 18F-PDAM-1007 PET/CT scan is expected to provide clinical benefit as determined by a Urologist, Radiation Oncologist, Medical Oncologist, or Nuclear Medicine physician (licensed in Alberta) The safety of the investigational 18F-PSMA-1007 tracer will be evaluated in 3 ways: 1. The participant will be screened for adverse effects immediately post-injection 2. The participant will be screened for adverse effects immediately after the scan (approximately 2.5 hours after tracer injection) 3. The participant will be provided an information sheet and contact information for self-reporting of any delayed adverse events (1-7 days post injection) The incidence of and activity of non-specific bone lesions will be quantified and evaluated as follows: 1. All lesions categorized as non-specific bone lesions (PSMA-1007 SUVmax \> 2.5 but no corresponding lesion on CT) will be recorded 2. The SUVmax and anatomic location will be recorded for each lesion (max 5 per participant) 3. Recorded lesions will be evaluated a minimum of 1 year post-scan to determine whether they are benign or malignant based on previously published reference standard criteria (Arnfield et al., 2021) 4. Equivocal lesions will be considered unevaluable and will be excluded from assessment of accuracy

Stage 1 \[Enrolment closed\]: The goal of this open-label pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of accelerated, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) using continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) in patients with ALS. Stage 2 \[CURRENTLY ENROLLING\]: The goal of this open-label pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and target engagement of accelerated, high dose cTBS using TMS in patients with ALS.

This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of EBV-specific T-cell lines to treat patients suffering from high EBV viral titers not responding to standard of care therapies and to treat EBV-related lymphoma. The study will recruit 6 patients to receive autologous T cells or a T cell line derived from the patient's allogeneic donor (in the case of stem cell transplant recipients), and 6 patients to receive a T-cell line prepared from a matched or partially matched related donor.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of an investigational drug called CFI-400945 alone and in combination with azacitidine.

Avenanthramides (AVA) are di-phenolic compounds found only in oats and are of interest due to suggested bioactivities, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in vitro and in vivo. Published data suggests that polyphenols can work as modifiers of signal transduction pathways to elicit their beneficial effects. These natural compounds express anti-inflammatory activity by modulation of pro-inflammatory gene expression such as cyclo-oxygenase, lipoxygenase, nitric oxide synthases and several pivotal cytokines, mainly by acting through nuclear factor-kappa B and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling. The biomarkers of inflammation in blood, i.e., pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, as well as other inflammatory markers (i.e., high sensitivity C-reactive protein) are of particular interest. Primary Objectives: * To assess the safety and tolerability of single ascending oral doses of avenanthramide in healthy subjects. * To assess the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending oral doses of avenanthramide in healthy subjects and subjects with elevated waist circumference and low-grade inflammation. Secondary Objectives: * To determine the pharmacokinetics of avenanthramide following single ascending oral doses in healthy subjects. * To compare the pharmacokinetics of avenanthramide following single oral dose in healthy subjects under fasting and fed conditions. * To determine the pharmacokinetics of avenanthramide following multiple ascending oral doses in healthy subjects. * To determine the pharmacokinetics of avenanthramide following multiple ascending oral doses in subjects with elevated waist circumference and low-grade inflammation.

This prospective study aims to validate if NeoRetina, an artificial intelligence algorithm developped by DIAGNOS Inc. and trained to automatically detect the presence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) by the analysis of macula centered eye fundus photographies, can detect this disease and grade its severity.

Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS), is a common and costly problem in Alberta that affects approximately 250 babies per year exposed to drugs during pregnancy. Unfortunately, this has become more common in the last 10 years. Babies with NAS can be very difficult to care for with poor feeding, diarrhea, and extreme irritability. These babies often receive specialized care and medications in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), which leads to separation of mothers and babies at a time when it is most important that they be together. This separation is traumatic for families and expensive for the health and foster care systems, as babies often end up being cared for by governmental agencies. Recent research has shown that keeping mothers and babies together in a quiet, supportive environment in hospital, called 'rooming in', leads to a decreased need for NICU admission, decreased amount of time spent in the NICU, increased rates of breastfeeding, and an increase in babies going home with their mothers. This project will systematically introduce a program of 'rooming-in' to hospitals in Alberta to determine if the investigators can improve NAS care provided to babies and mothers. The goal is to decrease NICU admission and length of stay, increase the number of babies going home with mothers, increase breastfeeding rates, and increase the number of women enrolled in supportive programs for substance use. The investigators will also determine if this rooming-in model of care decreases health and societal costs associated with caring for babies with NAS.
