The Effect of Eddy Sonic Versus AF Max Activation of Bio-ceramic Sealer on Post-operative Pain in Teeth with Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis with Apical Periodontitis

Irreversible Pulpitis with Apical Periodontitis

The aim of endodontic therapy for an inflamed tooth is to eliminate the source of inflammation. Relieving pain depends on the effectiveness of root canal therapy.3 Postoperative pain in endodontic treatments, affecting 3-58% of patients, is often caused by peri-radicular tissue injuries. Understanding these factors helps professionals select methods and supplies to minimize discomfort. 30 patients will be divided into 3 groups according to the method of activation (10 par ticipants/each). participants will be recruited from the postgrad clinic of the endodontic department faculty of oral and dental medicine, Future University in Egypt Patients with mature mandibular first permanent molar with irreversible pulpitis with apical periodontitis Intervention 1: bio-ceramic sealer activation with Eddy sonic Intervention 2: bio-ceramic sealer activation with AF max Control/Comparator: bio-ceramic sealer without activation The study aims to evaluate the effect of Eddy Sonic and AF max activation of bio-ceramic sealer on postoperative pain in mandibular first molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis with apical periodontitis

Behavioral Therapy for Crohn's Disease

Crohn's Disease

People living with Crohn's disease (CD) experience psychological and emotional symptoms, in addition to known chronic and disabling physical symptoms, which prevent them from living their life to the fullest (flourishing). Depression and anxiety are experienced by 30% of people living with CD and 60% of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients continue to report chronic pain, stress, sleeplessness, and fatigue, even when they are "objectively" in remission. Psychological stress has been endorsed by 70% of patients with IBD as a key trigger for disease activity which is not surprising given the significance of the gut-brain-microbiome axis, the close communication between the enteric and autonomic nervous systems, and the role of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis and its neuroendocrine and immune functions in the expression of GI symptoms. Interestingly, up to 85% of patients with CD also endorse the positive impact of effective coping skills on disease course. The PI's prior work has suggested that early provision of effective coping strategies, offered at the time of diagnosis or more precisely, immediately prior to biologic medication initiation, could potentially result in faster healing and improved well-being, likely through the combination of 1) physiological mitigation of the stress response and optimization of the gut-brain-microbiome axis; and 2) promotion of effective coping and disease self-management behaviors that promote psychological flourishing despite disease. Unfortunately, to date, early effective psychosocial care has been limited by concerns over reimbursement for psychological services, access to qualified IBD mental health professionals, and the lack of a standardized methodology focused on the brain-gut stress response and how to assess, monitor, communicate and maintain tight control over both physical and emotional well-being. CATHARSIS is a rigorous, placebo-controlled, randomized controlled trial of coping strategies plus medication for 170 people living with Crohn's for less than 5 years who are about to start a new biologic medication due to active disease. Outcomes include improvements in emotional well-being as well as clinical and endoscopic remission over a 12-month period. The overall goal of the study is to demonstrate that it is essential to combine biologic therapy and psychosocial care to ensure optimal and long-term positive outcomes in CD.

Effect of Point-of-care Analysis of Ultrasensitive Troponin I on Length of Hospital Stay in Patients With Cardiac Chest Pain (POC Troponina)

Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS) Β· Troponin I Β· Point-of-Care Testing

This clinical study aims to compare two different methods for measuring high-sensitivity troponin I, a key biomarker used to diagnose heart attacks. The primary research question is: Does the use of the Atellica VTLi kit from Siemens for high-sensitivity troponin I (hs-cTnI) testing at the point of care (POC) significantly reduce the average time from admission to hospital discharge compared to the conventional laboratory methodology using the Alinity i kit from ABBOTT? Participant will: * Patients aged β‰₯ 18 years. * Patients arriving in the emergency room with symptoms suggestive of ACS, with onset of pain between 3 and 12 hours after arrival, in whom serial troponin dosing is planned for investigation. * Signature of the Informed Consent Form (ICF). Researchers will analyze whether the point-of-care testing method helps speed up the hospital discharge process compared to the standard laboratory approach. They will also compare the accuracy of the test results, the time taken for clinical decisions, and the overall cost-effectiveness of the two methods.

Gait Recovery in Patients After Acute Ischemic Stroke

Ischemic Stroke

More than 80% of ischemic stroke (IS) patients have some walking disability, which restricts their independence in the activities of daily living. Physical therapy (PT) significantly contributes to gait recovery in patients after IS. However, it remains unclear, what type of gait training is more effective and which factors may have impact on gait recovery. Two hundred fifty IS patients will be enrolled to undergo a 2-week intensive inpatient rehabilitation including randomly assigned robot-assisted treadmill gait training (RTGT) or therapist-assisted treadmill gait training (TTGT). A detailed clinical and laboratory assessment of gait quality, as well as the degree of neurological impairment, quality of life, cognition and depression will be performed in all patients during the study. We hypothesize that these variables may also affect gait recovery in patients after IS. In a randomly selected 60 enrolled patients, a multi-modal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), including functional MRI, will be performed to assess neural correlates and additional predictors of gait recovery.

ERP to Improve Functioning in Veterans With OCD

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Β· Comorbid Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and OCD

Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a debilitating psychiatric illness impacting work, social, and family functioning. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is the sole evidence-based psychotherapy for OCD; however, no randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have examined the effectiveness of ERP among Veterans or individuals with both OCD and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This 4-year Hybrid Type I trial will compare outcomes of ERP to those of a control condition among Veterans with OCD. Primary and secondary aims will examine whether Veterans' functioning, quality of life, and OCD symptoms differ between the ERP and control in the full sample of Veterans with OCD, and in the half of the sample with both OCD and PTSD. The tertiary aim is to conduct a mixed-methods formative evaluation of the implementation potential of ERP in VA mental health settings.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Β· Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) Β· Electroencephalography

Background: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation that has aroused increased interests in the past decade. Not only that it is transient with little side-effects, and can be well-tolerated by children, it is also affordable and readily accessible, making it an appealing treatment option for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Objective: (1) To assess the therapeutic effects of tDCS when combined with cognitive training for 10 consecutive weekdays on improving cognitive processing in children with ASD, relative to control group receiving sham-stimulation, and (2) to evaluate the associated neural mechanisms underlying the treatment effect of tDCS on children with ASD. Methods: To assess the therapeutic effects of tDCS, 90 adolescents with ASD (age 6-12 years) will be randomly assigned to active- (n=45), or sham- (n=45) tDCS groups. Twenty-minute sessions of tDCS stimulation to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPRC) will be provided on 10 consecutive weekdays, in conjunction with cognitive training exercises. Participants with a head circumference of less than 53 cm will receive 1.0 mA of stimulation, while those with a circumference of 53 cm or greater will receive 1.5 mA. EEG, fNIRS and neuropsychological tests will be administered before, immediately after, and 2 months after the series of tDCS sessions. Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that children with ASD who are randomly assigned to receive a montage of prefrontal tDCS, with cathode (inhibitory) placed over left DLPFC and anode (excitatory) over right supraorbital region) will evidence greater improvement in executive function (primary outcome) than children with ASD who are randomly assigned to receive sham-tDCS. In addition to testing the primary clinical outcome, stated above, in planned exploratory analyses, the investigators will also examine the effects of tDCS on secondary outcome measures of cognitive function, including information processing speed, working memory, inhibitory control, and cognitive flexibility; and conduct exploratory mediation analyses to better understand the potential neurophysiological factors underlying the therapeutic effects of tDCS. This will include E/I ratio as exploratory mediator variables. As these secondary analyses are exploratory, the investigators will report them as such in presentations and published papers, and the investigators will not draw definitive conclusions from them. Rather, they will be used to better understand the potential impact of tDCS and the mechanisms underlying impact, and to inform future research.

Immune Cell Response to Stimuli

Inflammation

This study will investigate the response of immune cells (neutrophils, monocytes) to various signals in the test tube to determine how they sense the signals in the body and what substances they produce in response to them. It will determine how the cells may, under certain circumstances, contribute to inflammation, and will measure substances in the blood plasma (the liquid, non-cellular part of the blood) that might stimulate white blood cells, in order to understand how the blood responds to possible disease-related conditions. Healthy normal volunteers 18 years of age and older who weigh at least 110 pounds may be eligible for this study. Participants give about 320 milliliters (mL) of blood (about 1 1/3 cups) or less at each donation. They donate no more than once every 8 weeks and no more than six times a year. On some occasions, less than 320 mL of blood may be drawn. The collected blood is separated into its components and specific cells are exposed to substances to examine their response.
