-
Xiqing plus probiotics to improve gut balance and drug effects in chronic kidney disease
This trial will test whether adding Xiqing and probiotics helps lower nitrogen waste and improve drug effectiveness in adults with stage 3–5 chronic kidney disease who are not on dialysis.
-
GLP-1 drug effects on muscle and bone during weight loss
It tests whether GLP-1–based weight-loss medication (tirzepatide) plus a lifestyle program changes muscle and bone in adults 18–50 with obesity (BMI 30–40).
-
Tenecteplase versus alteplase before mechanical thrombectomy for acute large-vessel ischemic stroke
This trial tests whether tenecteplase given before mechanical thrombectomy helps adults with acute large-vessel ischemic stroke within 4.5 hours recover better than standard alteplase.
-
Comparing morning versus bedtime aspirin for cardiovascular health
This study is testing if taking aspirin at bedtime works better than taking it in the morning for people who are already using aspirin to protect their heart health.
-
Optimizing meropenem administration in ICU patients
This study tests if giving the antibiotic meropenem in smaller, more frequent doses can work just as well for ICU patients with serious infections as the standard larger doses.
-
Observing genetic factors in Indian children with leukemia
This study looks at how genetic differences might affect side effects from chemotherapy in Indian children with leukemia to see how it impacts their quality of life.
-
Measuring drug levels in children on ECMO support
This study is trying to see how well certain sedatives and pain medications work in children on ECMO support to improve their care.
-
Measuring how bivalirudin works in children during heart procedures
This study is testing how the blood thinner bivalirudin works in children during heart procedures to help make sure they get the right amount for safety and effectiveness.
