This study is recruiting CHLA staff/employees/trainees to participate in a study assessing the efficacy of different types of video in teaching a surgical skill to novices. Participants will complete a survey and a medical training task, watch a video, and then repeat the medical training task in 2 weeks.
To test the effectiveness of an addiction-based weight loss intervention, embodied first as a smartphone app with telephone coaching (AppCoach) compared to (1) addiction model based weight-loss app alone (App) and (2) multi-disciplinary in-clinic weight loss intervention (Clinic) on weight outcomes of overweight and obese adolescents at 3, 6, 12 and 18 months post enrollment.
The purpose of the study is to learn about how to improve access to care during young adulthood and to assess if telehealth is an acceptable form of care.
This study is a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, titrated, parallel arm, multicenter study. It will compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of twice daily Chronocort with twice daily IRHC (Cortef®) over a randomized treatment period of up to 52 weeks in participants aged 16 years and over with known classic CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The primary efficacy assessment of biochemical responder rate and the key secondary assessments of dose responder rate and mean total daily dose will be assessed after 52 weeks of randomized treatment.
Validate the use of respiratory inductance plethysmography (RIP) and esophageal manometry in diagnosing upper airway obstruction (UAO) in newborn infants.
To investigate the connection between diet, genetics, and diseases in Hispanic / Latino youth.
1) To determine if 5 doses of Epo (Erythropoietin) 1000 U/kg (birth weight) intravenous (IV) reduces the rate of death or neurodevelopmental impairment (mild, moderate, or severe) at 24 months of age.
2) To assess safety of Epo.
3) To determine whether Epo decreases the severity of HIE-induced brain injury as evidenced by early MRI and plasma biomarkers of brain injury.
Two main purposes of the study: (1) to see if social communication of children with TSC can be improved with a short term behavioral intervention (JASPER) and (2) to see if these improvements remain long after the study, and whether they can be observed with electroencephalography (EEG).
To determine if a home visitation program for breastfeeding mothers affects the health of their babies.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of crinecerfont versus placebo administered twice daily (bid) with breakfast and evening meals for28 weeks in approximately 81 pediatric subjects with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to21-hydroxylase deficiency. Eligible subjects will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio (active:placebo) to either crinecerfont (25 mg bid via oral solution for subjects 10 to <20 kg, 50 mg bid via oral solution for subjects 20 to <55 kg, or 100 mg bid via oral capsules for subjects ≥55 kg) or matching placebo (oral solution placebo for subjects <55 kg and oral capsule placebo for subjects ≥55 kg). Dose assignment from Day 1 to Week 28 will be based on the subject’s weight at Day 1. After the 28-week placebo-controlled treatment period, there will be a 24-week, open-label treatment period, during which all subjects will receive crinecerfont at doses based on their Week 28 body weight.
