Self-Adjusted Nitrous Oxide: A Feasibility Study in the Setting of Vasectomy
Testing whether self-controlled nitrous oxide during vasectomy lowers pain and anxiety
📍 Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center · Boston, MA · Get directions →
This study is being done to see if nitrous oxide during vasectomy decreases pain and anxiety, and also assess whether patients have better satisfaction when they control their own level of nitrous oxide during the procedure. If we find that patients experience less pain or anxiety with nitrous oxide, it could be suggested that self-adjusted nitrous oxide (SANO) may be a useful tool for improving experience of care during vasectomy.

Impact GLP-1 Agonists Following Bariatric
Testing whether GLP-1 medicines after bariatric surgery affect weight and blood sugar
📍 University of Missouri Hospital · Columbia, MO · Get directions →
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a hormone that helps regulate blood glucose levels through improved insulin sensitivity and release of insulin from the pancreas, control hunger, induce satiety and plays a role in the metabolic health of a person. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) have been shown to be effective in achieving weight loss in patients with type 2 diabetes while improving blood glucose control.

Testing whether genetic-guided dosing of a daily anxiety medicine helps kids
📍 University of Cincinnati, Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Neuroscience · Cincinnati, OH · Get directions →
This double-blind, 12-week study will consist include132 anxious youth who are randomized (1:1) to standard or pharmacogenetically-guided escitalopram dosing. Block randomization (1:1) will be stratified by sex and metabolizer status.
- Anxiety
Adjunctive Treatment With L-methylfolate for Treatment-Resistant Generalized Anxiety Disorder: a Pilot Study
Testing whether adding L-methylfolate is safe and tolerated for hard-to-treat anxiety
📍 Kingston Health Sciences Centre · Kingston, Ontario · Get directions →
The goal of this feasibility study is to determine the tolerability and safety of add on treatment with L-methylfolate in patients with treatment-resistant generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). The primary objective is to monitor for side effects and other risks associated with the treatment.

Processes and Circuitry Underlying Threat Sensitivity as a Treatment Target for Co-morbid Anxiety and Depression
Studying brain circuits for threat sensitivity in people with anxiety and depression
📍 Laureate Institute for Brain Research · Tulsa, OK · Get directions →
This mechanistic study uses an anti anxiety drug and brain imaging to study the threat processing system and associated brain circuits in people with depression, anxiety disorders and comorbid depression and anxiety disorders.
