This study tests whether a moderate-intensity physical activity program during pregnancy is feasible for pregnant women facing social risk.
-
AI-assisted transcranial Doppler ultrasound to detect early brain bleeding
This will try to see if a quick transcranial Doppler ultrasound combined with artificial intelligence can detect intracerebral bleeding in adults with suspected acute stroke within 48 hours of symptom onset.
-
Non-invasive virtual reality home telerehabilitation for stroke recovery
A home-based, non-immersive virtual reality telerehabilitation program is tested to help adults with subacute to chronic stroke improve motor function.
-
Spanish version of the Distress Thermometer and psychosocial needs checklist for adolescents and young adults with cancer

This project tests whether combining genetic testing, LoRRca ektacytometry, and microfluidic analysis can improve diagnosis and predict disease course for people with sickle cell disease and other inherited anemias.
-
Using angiogenic blood tests to guide delivery timing for term preeclampsia
This trial tests whether using an angiogenic blood test (sFlt-1/PlGF) to guide when to deliver can reduce inductions without causing more severe preeclampsia in people with preeclampsia without severe features at 36–38+6 weeks.
-
Probiotic added to treatment for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis
