The purpose of this study to find out whether a device that delivers mild electrical stimulation to the ear (transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation, or taVNS) can reduce inflammation in the eye in people with ocular inflammatory conditions. The device is called the Cymbathera One System.
This study aims to evaluate the effect of 8 weeks of a stress reduction intervention on atherosclerotic plaque inflammation in adults with stable coronary artery disease, as quantified by positron emission tomography (PET) with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) in individuals with increased psychosocial stress.
A large body of evidence on depression heterogeneity point to an "immunometabolic" subtype characterized by the clustering of immunometabolic dysregulations with atypical behavioral symptoms related to energy homeostasis.

Rationale: Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (eGPA), eosinophilic asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) are airway diseases where eosinophils and interleukine-5 are involved in the pathogenesis. eGPA differs from the other diseases with respect to involvement of other organs. The investigators hypothesize that nasal microbiome dysbiosis with a central …
Obesity is associated with increased cardiometabolic disease risk due, in part, to heightened chronic inflammation arising from adipose tissue. There are no current targeted therapies to prevent or reverse the chronic inflammation of obesity, and a better understanding of these inflammatory pathways in humans is key to future therapeutic interventions. …
This study will track immune responsiveness to conjugate pneumococcal vaccines over time to help determine how long protection from this vaccine lasts in individuals with chronic medical conditions (in this study - HIV) and with age.
