Effectiveness

How Oxytrol For Women Affects PatientsOxybutynin helps to relieve symptoms of an overactive bladder, such as frequent and urgent urination, by blocking a certain type of nerve receptor. Taking this drug may cause symptoms of angioedema, so it should be stopped immediately if this occurs. It can also cause anticholinergic effects such as hallucinations, confusion, agitation, and drowsiness, and using heavy machinery should be avoided until the response to oxybutynin is known. The dose may need to be adjusted in some cases.
How Oxytrol For Women works in the bodyOxybutynin works by blocking the effects of a chemical called acetylcholine on bladder muscles, which makes it easier to control urine flow and decreases urgency and frequency of urination. It does this by preventing the chemical from binding to receptors in the bladder muscles. Oxybutynin's active metabolite is N-desethyloxybutynin, which works to relax the bladder and increase its capacity.

Detrusor Nerve Radiofrequency Ablation for Overactive Bladder

22 - 80
Female
Palo Alto, CA
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a vaginal radiofrequency (RF) device called MORPHEUSV works to treat overactive bladder (OAB) in women. Researchers also want to learn how safe the device is for this indication. This study will include women ages 22 to 80 who have had OAB symptoms for at least 6 months. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the MORPHEUSV device lower the number of daily episodes of accidental urine leakage caused by urgency? Does it work better than a sham (placebo) treatment? Researchers will compare the MORPHEUSV device to a sham treatment to see how well it reduces symptoms of overactive bladder. Participants will: 1) Receive one session of either the MORPHEUSV or sham treatment. 2) Track their symptoms using a diary and questionnaires 3) Return for three to six follow-up visits over 12 months. This study is being conducted at multiple clinics in the United States.

Photobiomodulation for Autism

4 - 12
All Sexes
Phoenix, AZ
For this study, the proposed intervention will be noninvasively delivered near infra-red (NIR) light - transcranial Photobiomodulation (tPBM) - to the brains of autistic children. This will occur, twice a week, for 10 weeks. The NIR light is delivered to specific brain areas by Cognilum, a wearable device developed by Jelikalite. The expected outcome is improved focus, improved eye contact, improved speech, improved behavior, and gains in functional skills. Cognilum may impact the clinical practice of treating autism. At the beginning, at five weeks, and at the end of study, the clinician will complete the CARS-2, SRS, CGI, and a caregiver interview; additionally, questionnaires will be administered to caregivers during one of the 1-hour weekly treatment sessions.

MitoQ for Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms

50 - 75
Female
Farmington, CT
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of a supplement called MitoQ (mitoquinol mesylate) on bladder symptoms such as urgency and frequency in women 50 years and older who have the metabolic syndrome. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the study design feasible and acceptable to participants? * Do participants taking the study drug get any improvement to their bladder symptoms compared to participants taking a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug)? Participants will take 2 capsules of the study drug every morning for 4 months, answer many questions about their health including questions about their bladder health, perform physical and cognitive testing, give blood and urine samples, collect urine over 24 hour periods 3 times over the 4 months of the study, complete 3 day bladder diaries about how much they drink and void, undergo electrocardiograms, have their vitals and measurements (weight, height, waist circumference) taken, participate in 4 visits to the clinical research area and participate in many phone calls of varying length. Researchers will compare participants who were taking capsules containing MitoQ and participants taking capsules not containing MitoQ to see if MitoQ improves their bladder symptoms (urgency, frequency, nocturia, incontinence, etc.)
