The objective of this study is to pilot a multifaceted, optimized intervention for metabolic syndrome (MetS) in emergency department patients to establish feasibility. Participants (n=20) will be randomized to intervention or control (usual care). The composite intervention will include an educational video outlining the adverse effects of MetS and the …
This project will use a mixed design and will be conducted at the West Parry Sound Health Centre. Based on similar studies there is an expected 10% drop-out rate so 20 participants per group will be invited to aim to have 15 finish. Total participants invited over the two-year study …
The purpose of this study is to learn about the experience of women with vasculitis who become pregnant. In particular, the study will consist of several online surveys to assess each woman's vasculitis severity and pregnancy-related experiences, and pregnancy outcomes.

The goal of this randomized delayed control intervention research study is to see if participants who receive education and healthy prepared meals improve the quality of their diet compared to participants who receive only physical activity education and coaching.
Lower attainment of cardiovascular health (CVH), indicated by the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 (LS7; physical activity, diet, cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, smoking, glycemia) and Life's Essential 8 (LE8; LS7+sleep) metrics, is a major contributor to Black men having the shortest life-expectancy of any non-indigenous race/sex group. …
Poor heart health puts Black women at risk for a shorter life with more illness than people of any other non-indigenous racial group. We will refine and conduct a randomized, wait-list controlled trial of Inspire HER (a heart health lifestyle intervention for Black women that provides health education, physical activity, …
Generative AI (GenAI) based on large language models (LLMs) is expected to improve the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune diseases. We are studying how GenAI may affect the diagnosis of various complications of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In a retrospective study using RA patients' EHR records, we will quantify physician adoption …
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects over 230 million adults worldwide and is a highly morbid, costly, and disabling condition. Ischemic leg pain drives disability in PAD patients and results from oxygen supply-demand mismatch, autonomic dysfunction, and muscle breakdown. This leg pain, which is unresponsive to traditional pharmacotherapy, limits the patient's …
The investigators recently identified Brain-derived tau (BD-tau) as a sensitive blood-based biomarker for brain injury in acute ischemic stroke: in patients with acute ischemic stroke, plasma BD-tau was associated with imaging-based metrics of brain injury upon admission, increased within the first 24 hours in correlation with infarct progression, and at …
