Genetic Study of Immunodeficiency: Search for New Genetic Causes for Primary Immunodeficiencies
Individuals with suspected primary immunodeficiency will be studied and the results compared with healthy controls. Primary immunodeficiency may manifest as recurrent, severe or unusual infections as well as signs and symptoms of immune dysregulation such as autoimmunity or lymphoproliferation.
Sickle Cell Disease Biofluid Chip Technology (SCD BioChip)
'Sickle-shaped' anemia was first clinically described in the US in 1910, and the mutated heritable sickle hemoglobin molecule was identified in 1949. The pathophysiology of SCD is a consequence of abnormal polymerization of sickle hemoglobin (HbS) and its effects on red cell membrane properties, shape, and density, and subsequent critical …
HRV as a Marker of Treatment Response in PAH Arterial Hypertension
This is a prospective longitudinal cohort study to determine the value of HRV obtained using noninvasive actigraphy to quantify the response to pulmonary vasodilator therapy in newly diagnosed PAH patients
Standardized Prenatal Clinical Care for LUTO
The investigators propose a standardized prenatal management, based on the scientific evidence published in the literature, to manage prenatally fetuses with lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO). The present study is a prospective registry that will evaluate and validate this standardized prenatal management for LUTO.
Metagenomic Study in Parapneumonic Effusion
Objective: To identify known and unknown bacterial pathogens in patients with pleural infections using a combination of conventional culture and next-generation sequencing approaches. Hypothesis to be tested: The investigators hypothesize that next-generation sequencing will serve as a comprehensive approach to identify culturable and unculturable bacterial pathogens in patients with pleural …
Pharmacokinetics of Apixaban in Peritoneal Dialysis
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is fairly prevalent in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) with the prevalence estimated to be 3.8 - 27%. While it is reported that patient with peritoneal dialysis (PD) has a lower incidence of AF as compared to patient with haemodialysis (HD), the risk is still …
Brain Connectivity Changes With Spinal Cord Stimulation and Treatment of Chronic Pain: A Resting State NIRS/EEG Study
This study aims to assess how use of spinal cord stimulation for the treatment of chronic pain impacts brain structure and function. The investigators will use a non-invasive neuroimaging technique called resting state Near Infrared Spectroscopy and Electroencephalography (rs-fNIRS/EEG). The investigators will enroll Veterans who are currently receiving care at …
Effect of Upper Eyelid Surgeries on Corneal Characteristics
The goal of this prospective observational study is to learn about the impact of conventional eyelid correction surgery on the eye's health and function in ptosis and eyelid retraction patient. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Changes in corneal topography, higher-order corneal aberrations, corneal biomechanical characteristics, and …
Robotic Evaluations of Motor Learning During Stroke Neurorehabilitation
The RELEARN trial is a a prospective longitudinal cohort study sampled by convenience. Stroke survivors and healthy control individuals will be recruited to analyze motor learning in the upper extremity and its neural basis in early stroke recovery.
Functional Lung MRI for Early Treatment Response Assessment for Patients With Eosinophilic Asthma
Patients with severe eosinophilic asthma will be placed on biologics if they continue to be uncontrolled despite maximized inhalation therapy or if they are only controlled under oral corticosteroids. Among biologics, 80% of patients respond to treatment and improve clinically, but approximately 20% are non-responders and up to date no …
