In individuals with obesity, the optimal dosing and duration of venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in settings representing acute medical illness or surgery is limited due to lack of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) focusing specifically on this population. Evidence suggests that in obese participants, both higher dosing and duration of VTE prophylaxis with Low Molecular Weight Heparins (LMWH) may be required to achieve a therapeutic effect similar to non-obese participants. This non-interventional study utilizes data already collected from a usual clinical practice setting in the Optum US clinical database, representing obese participants hospitalized with an acute medical condition or undergoing surgery receiving enoxaparin prophylaxis. Its aim is to compare the impact of the following enoxaparin prophylaxis strategies on the incidence of symptomatic VTE and major bleeding in the overall study population and prespecified subgroups: * High versus conventional dose * Extended versus conventional duration * Combined High-Dose and Extended-Duration versus Conventional-Dose and Conventional-Duration. The first date of enoxaparin prophylaxis will be the index date.
Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is associated with an increase in risk of mortality and long-term disability and is a major contributor to global disease burden. Participants hospitalized with an acute medical illness are at increased risk of VTE. This study a non-interventional study which analyzes data already collected in the Optum US clinical database. Its aim is to compare conventional versus extended duration prophylaxis with enoxaparin on the incidence of VTE and bleeding events in participants hospitalized for acute medical illness. The first date of enoxaparin treatment will be the index date.
This is a post-marketing study investigating the safety and efficacy of the REN device (Nerivio by Theranica, ISRAEL) in adolescents with migraine. The data analysis will test the ability of Frequent use of REN for the acute treatment of migraine to reduce the number of monthly migraine days in subsequent months, suggesting potential preventive benefits.
Researchers are trying to learn whether a drug called Lu AG09222 can help prevent migraine headaches for people who have not been helped by other treatments that are used to prevent migraines. People who join this trial have tried 2 to 4 other medications to prevent their migraines, but these medications have not helped them. When the trial is over, researchers will use this information to find out if the number of migraine days decreased more for the participants who got either dose of Lu AG09222 than for the participants who got the placebo.
The primary aim of this study is to determine if the addition of an individual polygenic risk score (PRS) in addition to the Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool (BCRAT) or Tyrer-Cuzick (IBIS) score will aid women at risk of breast cancer in making a decision to take (or not take) medications to prevent breast cancer.

Over the past two decades, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has emerged from relative obscurity to become one of the most serious complications of obesity in Hispanic obese populations, especially among those with a family history of T2DM. Few therapies have demonstrated long term efficacy in combating obesity and risk of T2DM in youth. Given the emerging evidence that glutamine and leucine (building blocks of protein) may affect energy partition and thus diabetes risk, and that the relationship of glutamine and diabetic risk has been further evaluated in one adult observational cohort study but data on leucine are lacking, we plan to conduct a clinical trial to determine the efficacy of glutamine to reduce insulin resistance, a diabetes risk factor. The primary specific aim of the research plan is to conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, clinical trial to test the efficacy of 6 months supplements of glutamine in reducing biomarkers for insulin resistance and weight gain among 56 obese Hispanic adolescents age 12-19 years with a BMI at or above the 95th percentile and a family history of T2DM. At the end of the grant period, we will have obtained preliminary data to plan pivotal clinical trials of glutamine coupled with or without lifestyle changes.

The objective of this randomized trial is to evaluate the effect of providing full prescription drug coverage (i.e. no co-pays, co-insurance or deductibles) for statins, beta-blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers to patients recently discharged from hospital after acute myocardial infarction.
Some people who have taken azithromycin to prevent MAC (Mycobacterium avium Complex, a bacterial infection common in HIV-infected persons) have been found to carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria (germs that grow despite the presence of drugs used to kill them). The purpose of this study is to see if people who take azithromycin carry more antibiotic-resistant bacteria than people who have chosen to delay MAC preventive therapy. When bacteria like Streptococcus (a type of bacteria that causes pneumonia and meningitis) are frequently exposed to antibiotics, the bacteria can become resistant to the drugs. MAC preventive therapy uses antibiotics, but this can make it difficult to treat other infections caused by bacteria that have become resistant in HIV-infected persons. If MAC preventive therapy is delayed, Streptococcus in the body may be less likely to develop resistance. Therefore, if the patient does get a Streptococcus infection, it will be easier to treat because it is not resistant to the antibiotics.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of stopping preventive therapy for DMAC in HIV-positive patients who (1) have been treated for DMAC for at least 12 months and are now free of any signs of DMAC for at least 16 weeks, and (2) have improved immune systems (CD4 cell counts greater than or equal to 100 cells/mm3) due to anti-HIV drug therapy. DMAC is a serious and sometimes life-threatening infection that usually affects only HIV-positive patients with CD4 cell counts (cells of the immune system that fight infection) less than 50 cells/mm3. It is recommended that people who are likely to get DMAC be placed on preventive medications which help reduce the risk of infection. New anti-HIV combination drug therapies can increase CD4 cell counts and can reduce the level of HIV in the blood. When CD4 counts are increased, risk of DMAC infection is less. This study examines whether it is possible to stop preventive therapy for DMAC when CD4 counts are high without placing individuals at risk for getting DMAC again.
To evaluate and compare the safety and effectiveness of a one-year course of isoniazid (INH) versus a two-month course of rifampin plus pyrazinamide for the prevention of reactivation tuberculosis in individuals infected with both HIV and latent (inactive) Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Current guidelines from the American Thoracic Society and the Centers for Disease Control recommend 6 to 12 months of INH for PPD (purified protein derivative)-positive individuals. Although the effectiveness of this treatment is not known for HIV-infected individuals, several studies using INH to prevent tuberculosis in presumably normal hosts have shown 60 to 80 percent effectiveness. Problems with this treatment include compliance, adverse reaction, and the possibility of not preventing disease due to tuberculosis organisms being resistant to INH. A two-month preventive treatment plan should help in increasing compliance. In addition, the use of two drugs (rifampin / pyrazinamide) may help overcome problems with drug resistance. If this study shows equal or greater effectiveness of the two-month rifampin / pyrazinamide treatment, it could alter the approach to tuberculosis prevention for both HIV-positive and HIV-negative individuals.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a two-dose schedule of the recombinant plague vaccine rF1V in healthy volunteers when given as an intramuscular (IM) injection at four ascending dose-levels.
