15 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This clinical trial aims to investigate the effectiveness of two Vitamins Revive hair supplements in promoting hair growth, reducing hair loss, and improving overall hair health. The products under assessment are Hair Nutra Growth and Hair Nutra Boost. The trial will assess the efficacy of the products to induce better hair growth, reduction in hair loss and shedding, increased hair thickness and fullness, and improvement in hair appearance and vitality over a 12-week testing period. Participants will complete study-specific questionnaires at Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, and Week 12. Participants will also provide photos of their hair at Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, and Week 12.
This study is intended to evaluate the efficacy of oral supplementation of an unhydrolyzed eggshell membrane ingredient (uESM) vs placebo on both objective and subjective markers of skin aging in middle-aged and senior adults using the Cutometer® MPA 580 multi-probe system along with specially designed subject questionnaires. Secondary objectives will be to assess the benefits of uESM on the health of hair and fingernails based on a subject questionnaire.
This is a triple-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy of Scale Media's Live Conscious Beyond Collagen supplement on overall hair and skin health. The study will involve 50 male or female participants aged 40 and over who have self-perceived hair thinning and shedding. The trial will last for 24 weeks and includes the completion of questionnaires and photo submissions at specific time points.
This study evaluates the efficacy of Scale Media's HLV Clinical Formula Hair Vitamins on the health and appearance of hair, focusing on growth, volume, dullness, overall health, hair shedding, fullness, and strength. It is a randomized controlled trial with 50 female-at-birth participants experiencing self-perceived hair thinning.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how hair removal with lasers achieves, what appears to be, permanent hair reduction. Laser hair removal has become one of the most popular and commonly performed procedures in cosmetic dermatology. However, relatively little is known about how the permanent reduction in the treated areas occurs. Recently, it has been discovered that certain cells in the hair follicle must be destroyed in order to achieve permanent hair reduction. A marker of these types of cells known as keratin 15 has been identified. By measuring the amount of keratin 15 before and after laser therapy, we hope to gain a better understanding of how lasers cause hair reduction on a biochemical level.
The study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of Keravive by Hydrafacial treatments and Keravive Peptide Spray for scalp health and enhancing hair quality in patients with androgenic alopecia. This study is intended to be a single arm study. Suitable subjects who meet all inclusion criteria and consented will undergo 3 in-office Keravive by Hydrafacial treatments at Day 0 and Weeks 4 and 8 in combination with daily application on Keravive Peptide Spray at home. Subjects will be assessed at Day 0, and Weeks 4, 8, and 20 by investigators using the Norwood Scale (males), Ludwig Classification (females), and a series of Likert scales for ranking improvement in scalp health and hair quality.
This study will evaluate the effect of deodorant and antiperspirant use and the presence of underarm hair on the absorption of testosterone. Each participant in this study will receive 6 single doses of 30 milligrams (mg) testosterone applied as a solution to each underarm. There is a minimum one day washout period between each dose. This study will last approximately 24 days not including screening. Screening is required within 30 days prior to the start of the study.
Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders (NHPIs) are defined as the descendants of the original peoples of Polynesia (e.g., Hawai'i, Sāmoa, and Tonga), Melanesia (e.g., Fiji), and Micronesia (e.g., Guam, Chuuk, and Marshall Islands). Their history with the U.S. parallels that of American Indians and Alaska Natives. Before Western contact, NHPIs had thriving societies with rich cultural traditions. After contact, NHPI communities were decimated to near extinction by infectious diseases, exploited for their cultural and natural resources, displaced from their ancestral lands, forced to assimilate to Western ways, and marginalized through legislative acts and compulsory assimilation policies (i.e., banning native language). The consequences have been high rates of cardiometabolic medical conditions, such as obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. These medical conditions are, in part, a result of cultural disruptions and displacement that altered the traditional practices of NHPI and led to poor social determinants of health (SDOH). The basic premise of our project is that Community Health Workers (CHWs) can accelerate health equity for NHPI communities by disseminating and implementing culturally responsive, evidence-based interventions to prevent cardiometabolic medical conditions and improve their SDOH. The purpose of this project is to test the potential efficacy of the PILI Lifestyle Program (PLP) with integrated social determinants of health (SDOH) components and have it delivered by NHPI Community Health Workers (CHWs) to NHPIs with cardiometabolic-related conditions in a two-arm pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) using a waitlist control. The investigators will evaluate the efficacy of the PLP+SDOH in improving the primary outcomes of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), systolic blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight in 180 adult NHPIs with pre-diabetes/type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and/or overweight/obesity.
Fish can provide pregnant women with omega-3 fatty acids for fetal brain development but some fish contains high levels of mercury which is detrimental to fetal brain development. The hypothesis is that women who have previously consumed high mercury fish can reduce the mercury level in their bodies and improve their omega-3 levels in three months by eating fish that is high in omega-3 fatty acids and low in mercury.
The purpose of this research study is to better understand African American hair and scalp, its biologic appearance and how this relates to African Americans' perceptions of their hair and scalp health. Since most hair studies have looked at Caucasian hair and scalp, we will use a population of Caucasian subjects for comparison in evaluating various hair and scalp parameters.
This research study seeks to find if there is a connection between the presence of pubic hair and the type of bacteria that live in the vagina and bladder.
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate allergen-induced nasal airway inflammation following nasal application of felis domesticus, or cat, extract in e-cigarette users, cigarette smokers, and non-smokers.
The purpose of this randomized, controlled, open-label pilot study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel intense pulsed light (IPL) device for removal of unwanted fine body hair. Subjects will have IPL treatment on one forearm area. Another area will serve as the un-treated control area. Subjects will be followed at 12-weeks post-final treatment.
The purpose of this study is to compare the differences in various chemical and biologic parameters of scalp and and hair parameters between young and old Caucasian females. The hair state and scalp blood flow in younger and older age groups with typical hair care practices will be qualified by measuring various parameters of the hair shaft and scalp with correlation back to hair and scalp satisfaction as measured in the subject. This is a single center study with an anticipated 4 month enrollment period. The investigators will compare various scalp and hair parameters between young and old Caucasian females by obtaining the following biological and chemical/structural information. Hair growth rate, anagen to telogen ratio, hair density (determined via phototrichogram and digital imaging), Vascular blood flow (Laser Doppler Flowmetry), Histamine stimulation and Hair diameter (clipped hairs). In addition, a detailed questionnaire will be administered to each subject regarding satisfaction of the subject's hair state, including typical hair care regimens and symptoms in scalp and/or hair shafts. This information will be correlated to the biologic and chemical/structural information about hair and scalp health. Approximately 50 healthy, Caucasian female subjects will be enrolled in this study. Twenty five participants will be 19-25 years-old and 25 participants 60 years or older. There will be two visits, Baseline and approximately 48 hours after baseline.
The goal of this research study is to learn about how brain activity, cognitive tests (tests of participant's brain function), and stress hormones are related to taking part in a health and wellness program in elementary-aged students.
