See if 5-HTP helps with ADHD traits and eye movements
This study tests whether taking 5-HTP can reduce distractibility in adults with ADHD by comparing 5-HTP to a placebo during brain and eye-movement tasks.
-
Is a steam mask better than warm compresses for kids with a chalazion?
A steam mask is tested to see if it helps pediatric chalazia more than traditional warm compresses.
-
Telehealth in MND: TiM online platform for people with MND
This project lets people with MND in the UK use an online telehealth platform to learn about and sign up for MND studies and share health information from home.
-
Low sex‑hormone levels in genetic neurodevelopmental conditions
This project will test whether people with certain genetic neurodevelopmental conditions have low sex hormones (hypogonadism) and how common it is.
-
Comparing CAT-guided self-help and CBT-guided self-help for people returning to NHS talking therapy
This project will try CAT-guided self-help and compare it with CBT-guided self-help for people with anxiety or low mood who are returning to NHS Talking Therapies.
-
Identifying pathogens in febrile patients using gene expression
This study is trying to find out if looking at gene responses in feverish patients can help doctors quickly tell if they have enteric fever or another infection, especially in places with limited resources.
NIH-funded research (6)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.

Technological and Educational Approaches to Restore Hypoglycemia Awareness in Type 1 Diabetes
A two-arm study in adults with type 1 diabetes tests whether high-tech glucose control plus education or targeted training can help people regain awareness of low blood sugar.
-
Techniques for restoring awareness of low blood sugar in adults with type 1 diabetes
A randomized trial compares different approaches to help adults with type 1 diabetes recognize when their blood sugar is dipping so they can act quickly.
-
Treating impaired hypoglycemia awareness in type 1 diabetes with targeted education and technology
This study tests two treatment approaches to help adults with type 1 diabetes who often don’t realize their blood sugar is getting too low, using a mix of technology and education in two large groups.
-
Helping people with type 1 diabetes regain awareness of dangerous lows
A UK study tests two different approaches to help adults with type 1 diabetes recognize and respond to low blood sugar by comparing a high-tech insulin system with targeted education.
-
Improving awareness of hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetes with targetted tech and education
A study tests two treatments to help adults with type 1 diabetes who frequently misread signs of low blood sugar, using technology and education over 12 months with follow-up.
-
Comparing treatments to improve awareness of low blood sugar in adults with type 1 diabetes.
This study is looking at how two different approaches can help adults with type 1 diabetes who have trouble noticing when their blood sugar is too low, and it aims to find out which method works best for different people over the next year or two.
