Ready, Set, Go! A Physical Fitness Intervention for Children With Mobility Challenges
Barriers to keeping and maintaining fitness as a young person with a disability exist across many domains of access to community locations such as fitness centers, so looking outside of these establishments may be necessary to advance fitness. This study is aimed at piloting a program that would address some of these barriers by hosting a modified after school running program with an underserved population in an accessible way. There is a second option to participate outside of school.

RENEW-AI: Personalizing Scleroderma Management With an AI Health Coach
The purpose of this pilot study is to explore the use of a large language model (LLM) in providing education and behavioral health coaching for individuals with Systemic Sclerosis (SSc). The goal of the LLM is to help user set or modify behavioral goals, provide education, or emotional support as needed by the participant. The primary outcome for this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of using an AI-supported health coaching tool over a four-week period.

Repurposing 5-Azacytidine for the Treatment of Muscle Contractures in Children With Cerebral Palsy
In this controlled dose-escalation study, we will study the initial safety, biological properties, and potential efficacy of 5-azacytidine (AZA). Our overarching aspiration is for AZA to evolve into an approved pharmacological treatment, fostering muscle growth and enhancing body movement, ultimately contributing to an improved quality of life in children with CP. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. What is the optimal dose of AZA injection that can be used safely in children with CP? 2. Can the optimal safe dose of AZA improve the function of muscle-generating stem cells in children with CP? Each participant will have up to five research...

Retro Comparison of Subsidence Following Interbody Devices in Lumbar Spine
The objective of this retrospective study is an investigational clinical follow-up, of patients treated with interbody fusion devices (IBFD), both expandable (EXP) and static (STC), according to their intended use and cleared labeling to understand IBFD design and technique characteristics that affect occurrence rates of subsidence. Patients treated with IBFD's (both EXP and STC) according to their intended use and cleared labeling 1. EXP IBFD's that expand in width and height demonstrate reduced occurrence of subsidence post-operatively when compared to EXP IBFD's that expand in height only and STC IBFD's. 2. EXP IBFD's that are comprised of multi-material...

Retrospective Study of Suture Tape for Soft Tissue Reconstruction in Patients Suffering From Lateral Ankle Instability
This study is intended to be a retrospective chart review of patients with chronic ankle instability who have undergone a lateral ligament reconstructive procedure for ATFL repair (isolated or non-isolated) with suture tape augmentation. Patients that have been treated at any of the participating institutions that have undergone an ATFL reconstruction with Arthrex InternalBrace augmentation who have postoperative hospital or ASC records of safety and effectiveness as measured by adverse events, potential complications, and potential functional outcomes past the 10-week time point will be included.

Study of Artelon FLEXBAND® for Patients Undergoing Soft Tissue Reconstruction of the Anterior Talofibular Ligament (ATFL) to Treat Lateral Ankle Instability
The goal of this clinical trial is to analzye return to pre-injury activity level on study participants with lateral ankle instability undergoing a modified Bröstrom reconstruction procedure for repair of the ATFL. Study participants undergoing ATFL reconstructive procedure using the ARTELON FLEXBAND System as an augmentation device will be compared to study participants undergoing a standard modified Bröstrom procedure alone. Clinician reported safety and functional outcomes measures will be collected at baseline; and at 2-, 6-, 12-, 18 and 26-weeks and 1- and 2-years post-surgery.
