HomeStyles-2 Program for Childhood Obesity
New Brunswick, New Jersey
Parents are children's primary role models, are food and physical activity gatekeepers, and create the structure/lifestyle environment within the home. Thus, parents strongly influence children's weight-related behaviors and have the opportunity to cultivate a "culture of health" within the home. Yet, there continues to be a dearth of evidence-based obesity prevention intervention programs, especially for families with children aged 6 to 11 years, commonly called the middle childhood years. The aim of the HomeStyles-2 online learning mode RCT is to determine whether this novel, age-appropriate, family intervention enables and motivates parents to shape their home environments and weight-related lifestyle practices (i.e., diet, exercise, sleep) to be more supportive of optimal health and reduced risk of obesity in their middle childhood youth more than those in the control condition. The RCT will include the experimental group and an attention control group who will engage in a bona fide concurrent treatment different in subject matter but equal in nonspecific treatment effects. The participants will be families with school-age children who are systematically randomly assigned by computer to study condition. The HomeStyles intervention is predicated on the social cognitive theory and a social ecological framework. The RCT will collect sociodemographic characteristics of the participant, child, and partner/spouse; child and parent health status; parent weight-related cognitions; weight-related behaviors of the parent and child; and weight-related characteristics of the home environment. Enrollment for this study will begin mid-2021.This paper describes these aspects of the HomeStyles-2 intervention: rationale; sample eligibility criteria and recruitment; study design; experimental group intervention theoretical and philosophical underpinnings, structure, content, and development process; attention control intervention; survey instrument development and components; outcome measures; and planned analyses.

Hazard Anticipation Program for Motor Vehicle Accidents
Iowa CIty, Iowa
This study will test an intervention that was developed to improve parents\' driving instruction of teens\' hazard anticipation skills when teens are in the learner phase of licensure. Half of the parents in the study will receive the intervention and half will not. Investigators will then compare driving instructions given by parents in the two groups by recording driving sessions that parents and teens have together in that real world and by recording a drive that parents and teens will complete in a driving simulator. The driving simulator allows us to expose teens and parents to hazards they may encounter on the roadway without putting them in harm\'s way.

1475 Participants Needed
This study will assess whether the promotion of emotional exchange between mother and infant during the first four months of life improves primarily mother-child early relational health (ERH) and secondarily child neurodevelopmental and maternal mental health outcomes. In prior research on preterm infants, a similar intervention demonstrated increased quality of maternal caregiving behaviors and significant improvements in premature infants' neurodevelopment across multiple domains, including social-relatedness and attention problems. The goal of the emotional exchange intervention is to help mothers provide appropriate stimulation crucial for social, emotional, and neurobehavioral development, by helping the mother and child become attuned, or 'in sync', with each other. Measures of ERH, such as bonding, maternal sensitivity, and mother-child emotional connection will be compared between two groups: one receiving newborn parenting education and the other undergoing facilitated emotional exchange. Assessments will involve videos of mother-infant interactions during each intervention session and follow-up surveys conducted as part of a linked Institutional Review Board-approved study. Data collected in this study will contribute to understanding the underlying mechanisms of mother-infant interactions and their role in shaping optimal neurodevelopmental trajectories for infants and maternal mental health.

BRIGHT Coaching Program for Developmental Disabilities
Montréal, Quebec
Children with, or at elevated risk for, brain-based developmental disabilities can experience lifelong consequences and challenges throughout their development. In particular, preschool years (3-6 years of age) can be stressful as families wait to get services and care for their child. Nationally and internationally, service delivery models during this critical period are not standardized, and differ within and across provinces and across patient conditions, leading to long wait times, service gaps and duplications.
This study has two main hypotheses:
1. A standardized approach to "coaching" (i.e. coach + online education tools + peer support network) is feasible in the real-life context, and acceptable to caregivers and can be delivered across multiple sites in urban/suburban/rural settings.
2. A standardized approach to "coaching" enhances parental health (parents' empowerment and sense of competence, quality of life, and minimizes parenting stress), family health care experience (care coordination experience and process of care) at similar health care cost (economic analysis), when compared to usual and locally available care.

Mobile Education App for Childhood Epilepsy
Montréal, Quebec
Background. Following a childhood diagnosis of epilepsy, children and their families encounter significant concerns about the disease trajectory, side effects of anti-seizure medications, and long-term prognosis. The multitude of uncertainties can cause significant anxiety in the family, often within the context of limited supports and resources. Epilepsy education can help address these concerns, mitigating the development of anxiety, ultimately leading to better patient-, family- and system-level outcomes. Globally, the MEEP is the only mobile application providing education, monitoring of symptoms, and tracking of medical appointments. The original MEEP was developed, tested, and integrated into practice in Turkey; the investigators will now evaluate the efficacy of an English and French version of the MEEP for families of children with epilepsy in Canada.
A two-group, single-center, randomized controlled intervention trial with 1:1 allocation ratio will be conducted in the Pediatric Neurology Clinic of the Montreal Children's Hospital. Seventy-two caregivers of children with epilepsy (intervention=36, control= 36), aged 1-17 years and treated at the study site will be eligible. Family Introduction Form, Epilepsy Information Scale for Parents and Parental Anxiety Scale for Seizures will be used to collect data at baseline and 3 weeks post-delivery of the 7-week intervention. The MEEP consists of 2 parts. The first part entails the delivery of the educational content of the MEEP, and the second part consists of a "Parental Monitoring Section." Comparator. The control group will continue to benefit from the standard educational services provided by the study site.

Family-Based Substance Use Prevention for Youth at Risk
Pawtucket, Rhode Island
Risk for substance use disorder (SUD) begins early in the life course. Although preventing and decreasing illicit and nonmedical drug use among youth is an urgent public health priority, there are currently few evidence-based prevention strategies feasible for delivery in the primary care setting. The investigators propose a three-year plan to collect critical pilot data to pilot test and optimize a dyadic intervention that aims to increase family resilience, strengthen coping skills, help families plan for the future, and prevent youth SUD.
The 'prototype' for the intervention approach is Family Talk, an evidence-based parent-youth dyadic intervention that can be delivered within the existing infrastructure of the patient-centered medical home. The investigators have made preliminary adaptations to the model in preparation for testing. To prepare for a subsequent efficacy study, a two-arm pilot randomized controlled trial of the intervention with 40 parent-youth dyads to optimize the intervention model will be conducted. The feasibility of the intervention will be evaluated. In addition, empiric estimates of study parameters to inform the planning of a fully powered randomized controlled trial and plausible intervention targets using semi-structured qualitative interviews will be obtained.

Family-Based Healthy Eating Interventions for Southeast Asian Children
Providence, Rhode Island
This small scale healthy eating study provides Southeast Asian families with children ages 6 to 11 with a family-based nutrition education, one-on-one interviews to help with motivation to eat health, text messaging, and coupons to purchase health foods and beverages. Since this is a small scale study that is a pilot intervention, the main goal of this intervention is to determine if it is feasible, meaning, can it be done. The second goal of this intervention is to determine if there are meaningful improvements in children's healthy eating patterns, body mass index and HbA1c. The third goal is to see if the intervention improves parent's diet quality, HbA1c and the home food environment. These study findings will be used to determine whether a larger clinical trial is needed, and if so, how it should be done.

Childbirth Support for Pregnancy in Incarceration
Little Rock, Arkansas
The number of women who are incarcerated in the U.S. has increased dramatically over the past 20 years-over 750%, or from 13,258 in 1980 to 111,616 in 2016. Arkansas incarcerates 92 women per 100,000 population compared to 57 per 100,000 average across all states, ranking the state as the 8th highest in the nation. Over 75% of incarcerated women are of childbearing age and about 4% are pregnant upon intake. However, little is known about the population of women who have become incarcerated while pregnant in Arkansas - including the outcomes of these women and their children and how these outcomes may vary in relation to services that are received during incarceration. This research study aims to first expand knowledge on incarcerated women in Arkansas by using administrative data to retrospectively examine the health status and outcomes of pregnant women who were incarcerated in state prison by Arkansas from June 1, 2014 to May 31, 2019 (a five-year cohort; Aim 1). Then, we will lay the groundwork for and subsequently analyze data on outcomes and perspectives of women who have been incarcerated in Arkansas while pregnant (Aims 2 and 3). We will also seek to understand the feasibility and acceptability of elements of an enhanced support program for incarcerated pregnant women recently launched via a collaboration between Arkansas Department of Corrections and UAMS.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a home-based mHealth intervention can improve adherence to the 24-Hour Movement Guidelines in preschool-aged children (3-4 years old) who currently meet 0 or 1 of the guidelines for physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Can the intervention increase the proportion of children meeting all three 24-Hour Movement Guidelines (physical activity, screen-time, and sleep)?
* Is the intervention feasible for parents to implement, as measured by a parent feedback survey?
Researchers will compare an intervention group to a waitlist control group to assess whether the intervention leads to increased guideline adherence.
Parents and Participants:
* Children will wear an accelerometer to track physical activity and sleep patterns.
* Parents will use a mobile app that delivers weekly lessons and behavior-related goals to encourage healthy movement behaviors in their children.
* Parents will complete questionnaires on their child's movement behaviors and development at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks.
* Additionally, children will undergo motor skills assessments, and parents will provide feedback on cognitive development and behavioral changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Parents clinical trials pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do Parents clinical trials work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Parents trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Parents is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a Parents medical study?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
