This RCT will evaluate the efficacy of Equine Assisted Learning for reducing PTSD symptoms in public safety personnel (e.g., fire fighters, police, nurses, etc.).

A six month randomized controlled intervention with an exogenous ketone salt (EKS) supplement in mild cognitive impairment. Participants will receive 15 g of the supplement twice daily (equivalent to 24 g/day of EKS). Outcomes: brain energy metabolism, cognition, plasma biomarkers, brain imaging (volumetric, functional, structural) and quality of life will be analyzed before and after the intervention.

The standard of care for glioblastoma (GBM) treatment involves maximal resection followed by concomitant radiotherapy and temozolomide. Progression-free survival (PFS) with this treatment is only 6.9 months and relapse is inevitable. At relapse, there is no consensus regarding the optimal therapeutic strategy. The rationale behind the fact that limited chemotherapy agents are available in the treatment of malignant gliomas is related to the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which impedes drug entry to the brain. Intraarterial (IA) chemotherapy allows to circumvent this. Using IA delivery of carboplatin, can produce responses in 70% of patients for a median PFS of 5 months. Median survival from study entry was 11 months, whereas the overall survival (OS) 23 months. How can the OS and PFS be improved? By combining chemotherapeutic agents with different mechanisms of action. Study design: In this phase II trial, treatment will be offered at relapse. Surgery will be performed for cytoreduction if it is warranted, followed with a combination IA carboplatin + IA Cealyx (liposomal doxorubicin) or IA carboplatin + IA etoposide phosphate. Toxicity will be assessed according to the NCIC common toxicity criteria. Treatment will consist in either IA carboplatin (400 mg/m\^2) + IA Cealyx (30 mg/m\^2) or IA carboplatin (400 mg/m\^2) + IA etoposide phosphate (400 mg/m\^2) every 4-6 weeks (1 cycle). Up to twelve cycles will be offered. Outcome measurements: Tumor response will be evaluated using the RANO criteria by magnetic resonance imaging monthly. Primary outcome will PFS and tumor response. Secondary outcome will include median OS, toxicity, quality of life (QOL), neurocognition (NC). Putting together these data will allow to correlate clinical and radiological response to QOL and NC.

Medications with sedative or anticholinergic effects such as antidepressants, benzodiazepines, or opioids have been associated with impaired cognitive and physical function. They are referred to as potentially inappropriate medications or medications that are best avoided by older adults. The accumulated evidence has now shifted the clinical and research focus to evaluating the who, what, and how of the best way to deprescribe (i.e., dose reduction or cessation of these medications). The Drug Burden Index (DBI) allows researchers and clinicians to quantify the cumulative burden of anticholinergic and sedative medications in each patient. Deprescribing these medications is a complex health intervention based on trade-offs between their clinical benefits (e.g., symptom management and prevention of diseases) and their adverse drug events to improve physical and cognitive function. Existing physical function performance metrics, such as gait speed captured in the clinic, are often non-specific and do not reflect real-life performance. Innovative mobility metrics are required to better understand specific deficits with age and disease and the effects of medications on these deficits. The goal of this project is to better characterize the impact of reducing the anticholinergic and sedative medication burden on physical function in older adults by novel mobility metrics in lab and real-life environments. A prospective, longitudinal cohort of 182 community-dwelling older adults (≥ 65 years) with a DBI of ≥ 1 will be completed. Using a quasi-experimental design, recruited patients will undergo a medication deprescribing plan, as part of usual clinical care, that includes three gradual changes to their medication regimen resulting in three DBI levels. At each DBI level, physical function mobility including dual-task tests) will be assessed in the lab with wearable sensors during validated clinical tests such as the Short Physical Performance Battery. Objective balance and mobility metrics (e.g., sway area and frequency, stride length) will be extracted. Physical function will also be assessed continuously in the patient's real-life environment from recruitment to the last lab visit, using wearable (Apple Watch® with ankle inertial measurement unit) and environmental sensors. Cognition will be measured using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Trail Making Test Part A \& B, and Digit Symbol Substitution Test.

This will be a single-arm open-label prospective pilot feasibility trial recruiting 10 adult patients with recurrent glioblastoma who are assigned to receive the personalized study treatment based on the genetic profile of their recurrent GBM tumor resected at the time of surgery. It will be aimed to gather preliminary information on the study intervention and the feasibility of conducting a full-scale trial.

The hypoxia \> metastasis axis suggests that a DWI-based biomarker of hypoxia incorporating IVIM may be able to predict metastasis in STS patients, ultimately enabling stratification for personalized treatments at the time of diagnostic (MR) imaging, without adding an excessive burden to the patient or clinical workflow (typical DWI/IVIM sequences can be acquired acquired in approximately 5 minutes).

This prospective, multicenter, 1:1 randomized, controlled trial is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Breast Cancer Locator (BCL) in subjects with non-palpable invasive breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Subjects will be randomized to breast conserving surgery (BCS) utilizing either the BCL or wire localization (WL) to guide surgery.

Suspension laryngoscopy is a common procedure during adenoteonsillectomy (removal of adenoids and tonsils), that consists of extending the patient's neck to allow better visualization of the tonsils. Previous studies on suspension larygnoscopy have shown that the time to maximum force during this procedure predicts complications such as pain, tounge swelling and opioid requirements. Moreover, monitoring these force during laparoscopy can reduce postoperative complications. However, no study to date has investigated the force metrics during suspension laryngoscopy in the pediatric population. Therefore, in this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the relationship of force metrics during adenotonsillectomy, adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy and postoperative pain.

Prospective cohort study to determine to what extent women with type 2 diabetes are achieving the time in the target range outlined for women with type 1 diabetes (70-140 mg/dl or 3.5-7.8 mmol/l), overall and by trimester, by standard CGM measures and functional data analysis

Patients undergoing dual treatment with Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) for various cancers, e.g. melanoma, are at increased risk of developing myocarditis and cardiomyopathy. Currently, only limited data on serial myocardial tissue changes during treatment and whether they predict outcomes are available. Cardiac MRI (CMR) is the reference standard for non-invasive myocardial volumes/function analysis and uniquely characterizes myocardial tissue. Therefore, it may help detect myocardial tissue changes during treatment and help early treatment and prevent adverse cardiac outcomes.
