    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.
