Eating Behavior and Weight Trajectory After Bariatric Surgery
Studying the mechanisms of weight regain (WR) may provide much needed insight into sustained obesity management. The aim of this five-year, prospective, multicenter study is to evaluate the association among eating patterns (specifically maladaptive behaviors), certain psychological variables and weight trajectory in the short- and long-term after bariatric surgery (BS). …
Vegan Diet in Small Children
Following increased knowledge about climate change and how food production affects greenhouse gas emissions, the interest in vegetarian diets is increasing. In line with this, also vegan diet is becoming more common at all ages, including in young children. But the state of knowledge regarding the effect of this diet …
Single Cell Sequencing of Tonsillar Tissue in Children With OSA
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in children is a prevalent sleep disorder, and is characterised by repetitive complete or partial upper airway obstruction during sleep. It is an important disease as it is associated with a large spectrum of end-organ morbidities. Adenotonsillar hypertrophy is the commonest cause of OSA in children, …
NIH Investigative Deep Phenotyping Study of Gulf War Veteran Health (Project NIH IN-DEPTH)
Background Gulf War illness (GWI) affects up to 210,000 U.S. veterans who served in the Middle East during the Gulf War in 1990-1991. Symptoms include fatigue, muscle and joint pain, forgetfulness, headaches, rashes, and sleep disturbances. Routine exams cannot determine the cause of GWI. Researchers need more information to understand …
PKD Clinical and Translational Core Study
Advances in our understanding of the pathogenesis of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) have opened up possibilities of new therapies to prevent disease progression. High quality clinical investigations in patients with ADPKD, however, pose significant challenges to investigators including limited access to patients with ADPKD,insufficient guidance by experienced investigators …
Acute and Chronic Inflammatory Disease, Lifestyle and Treatment Response
Acute and chronic inflammatory eye diseases are difficult to diagnose and maintain quiescent with therapy. Proposed study is aimed to find on the one hand, novel factors for recurrence of the disease or remission of inflammation and evaluation of the impact of lifestyle and known factors on the other. Each …
Decoding the Genetic Landscape of Skeletal Diseases
This 5-year project aims to (1) search for genetic causes for yet unsolved congenital skeletal disorders (GSDs); (2) study consequences of the newly identified pathogenic variants in cells and in transgenic mice, (3) summarize data on natural course and complications for different GSD groups. For patients with unsolved GSD, the …
Muscle Connective Tissue in Limb Development and Disease
The objective of this work is to understand how the disruption of the muscle connective tissue contributes to the limb soft-tissue defects in radial dysplasia. In parallel, the researchers will investigate the role of muscle connective tissue in normal limb development.
The Potential Role of Compounds Derived From Ultra-processed Foods in Pathogenesis of Eosinophilic Esophagitis
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic antigen-mediated inflammatory disease of the esophagus that affects both children and adults. The incidence and prevalence of EoE is rapidly increasing in Western countries with an estimated incidence of 6.6 per 100,000 person-years (95% CI, 3-11.7) in children and 7.7 per 100,000 person-years (95% …
COVID-19 Microvascular Evaluation Trial
The COMET trial is an observational, cross-sectional study aimed at comparing the incidence of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) in patients with stable angina who have a history of severe COVID-19 infection requiring mechanical ventilation (Group A) to those without a history of COVID-19 (Group B). A total of 102 participants …
