Chicago,United States - October 4, 2022 /PressCable/ —

The recently announced trial from the Chicago Clinical Research Institute is seeking volunteers to enroll in the clinical research that may help individuals looking for alternative treatments and for those struggling with chronic knee pain.

More information is available at https://ccrii.us/enroll-now

Volunteers in Bronzeville will not only receive the trial’s drug that may reduce and eliminate their knee pain but also get compensation for their time and travel, if they qualify.

An estimated 100 million Americans suffer from chronic knee pain which can be debilitating and reduce the quality of life for those suffering from the condition. Furthermore, many existing treatments can be ineffective or only mildly alleviate osteoarthritis symptoms. The team at the Chicago Clinical Research Institute are on a mission to find a new and more effective treatment with their latest clinical trials.

The call for volunteers sees the Illinois research facility seek out individuals who have tried several treatments in the past but have had little to no success in eliminating their knee pains. This includes those who have tried treatments such as physical therapy and the removal of excess fluid, and/or steroids.

Members of the trial need to be committed to taking part for a full 52 weeks as well as having no scheduled surgery planned for the year. Additionally, the trial requires volunteers to be aged 18 years or older, have a BMI of less than 40, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding.

As a paid clinical trial, the Chicago Clinical Research Institute provides compensation to volunteers for their time and travel expenses. Enrolled participants can also take pride in the fact that they are helping to advance osteoarthritis treatments for their fellow knee pain sufferers and finding life-changing therapies.

Based in Chicago, the team at the Chicago Clinical Research Institute has over 50 years of clinical research experience, having conducted over 250 trials since 2005. The facility’s latest trial enrollment is available to residents in and around Chicago and Chicago suburbs, including Bronzeville, Oak Park, Lincolnwood, South Park, Skokie, Humble Park, and Englewood areas of Illinois.

A spokesperson for the research facility said, “By volunteering for research, you may be contributing to new discoveries and therapies that may improve healthcare for you, your family, and the community at large.”

LONDON, United Kingdom — San Francisco scored three touchdowns off Seattle turnovers and the unbeaten 49ers edged the reigning Super Bowl champions 32-29 on Sunday while Minnesota improved to 5-0 as well. Eddy Pineiro's 44-yard field goal with 1:56 remaining gave the 49ers the final margin and San Francisco's defense forced a turnover on downs with 47 seconds remaining to beat their NFC West division rival. Thirty-eight points -- 21 by the Niners -- scored off seven turnovers, four by Seattle, were the most in an NFL game since 2017. Mike Evans caught seven passes for 113 yards, including a two-yard touchdown toss from Brock Purdy after a Renardo Green interception and a crucial two-point conversion. "Toughness and heart," Evans said. "We've got a locker room full of those guys. We knew it was going to be a dogfight. They're a great team. We showed we're a great team as well." Fred Warner knocked lose a fumble by Emanuel Wilson that Malik Mustapha recovered one play before Christian McCaffrey ran for a San Francisco touchdown. Gracen Halton recovered a George Holani fumble in the end zone to give the 49ers a 21-13 halftime lead. Seattle's Nehemiah Pritchett picked off Purdy to set up Sam Darnold's 16-yard touchdown pass to Jaxson Smith-Njigba to give Seattle a 23-21 lead. Purdy flipped a seven-yard touchdown pass to Brandin Cooks and the conversion to Evans for a 29-26 49ers' lead, only for Jason Myers to equalize from 40 yards on his fifth field goal, setting up the final drama. The Minnesota Vikings stayed undefeated with a 23-13 triumph at New Orleans. Justin Jefferson snagged a superb touchdown catch under triple coverage and Aaron Jones ran for 113 yards and a touchdown for the Vikings. Also undefeated are the Kansas City Chiefs (4-0), who are idle this week. An epic overtime blunder by Washington resulted in a 27-27 tie with the New York Giants. After recovering a Giants fumble deep in Washington territory, the Commanders made a final drive, but Jayden Daniels was stopped on a late run rather than throwing an incompletion to halt the clock. Washington, with no timeouts, could not prevent time from running out before setting up a field goal attempt. "Leaving with a tie feels like a loss," said Commanders coach Dan Quinn, whose team led 27-13. "We have to stop the clock," Daniels said. "Ultimately, it's on me." Cam Little kicked a 57-yard field goal on the final play to give Jacksonville a 19-17 victory over Philadelphia in London. Jake Elliott booted a 48-yard field goal with eight seconds remaining to lift Philadelphia ahead 17-16, but Ameer Abdullah raced 53 yards on the ensuing kickoff return and was tackled with one second remaining to set up Little's kick. "It was just a roller coaster," Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence said. "It was pretty crazy." The Green Bay Packers thumped arch-rivals Chicago 31-7 as Jordan Love completed 25-of-31 passes for 367 yards and two touchdowns and the Bears surrendered five turnovers. New England routed visiting Las Vegas 45-17 as Drake Maye completed 26-of-34 passes for 374 yards and four touchdowns and ran for another score. Aaron Rodgers threw for 235 yards and three touchdowns as host Pittsburgh beat Indianapolis 34-22.

Dobbins ran for another as visiting Denver beat the winless Los Angeles Chargers 23-17. The Houston Texans, who landed receiver Marin Harrison in a trade with Arizona, snapped their winless streak with a 26-3 victory over Tennessee. The hapless Titans sank to 0-5 as did the Miami Dolphins, who fell 31-24 to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Letran braces for surging Mapua in NCAA crossover round

MANILA, Philippines —  Colegio de San Juan de Letran, the Group B leader in the NCAA Season 102 men’s basketball tournament, needs to overcome Mapúa University in the crossover round to retain its hold on top of the standings on Monday at the FilOil EcoOil Centre in San Juan.
