Parathyroid Tumor Clonal Status
To define the frequency of monoclonal-X and polyclonal-X tumors in PHPT participants having parathyroidectomy (PTX) and to define the relationship between parathyroid tumor clonal status and multiple gland neoplasia (MGN), we will compare surgical and pathologic outcomes to tumor clonal status in a multicenter cohort of patients having bilateral neck …
The DETECT Study: Discovery and Evaluation of Testing for Endometrial and Ovarian Cancer in Tampons
BACKGROUND Endometrial cancer is a common and deadly cancer for women. It is getting more common and deadly because risk factors like age and obesity are increasing. Also, this cancer is becoming more common and deadly for black women than white women. Researchers want to find better ways to take …
Sensory Filtering in the Human Basal Ganglia as a Mechanism of Parkinson's Disease
The investigators are investigating the brain activity associated with sensory information in movement disorders in order to improve treatment of these symptoms beyond what is currently available.
Regulation of Inflammatory Genes in Hidradenitis Suppurativa

The primary objecti ve is to determinfollowing cytokines linked to hidradeniti s suppurati va are diff erenti ally …
Investigating Dynamic Interactions in Distributed Cognitive Control Networks
The purpose of this study is to investigate the brain activity associated with cognitive tasks (thinking, reasoning, remembering) in order to understand how the brain works during certain tasks and to improve treatment for diseases like dementia and attention deficit disorders. Cognitive (thinking) impairment may include poor memory function, poor …
VEGF and sFlt-1 Levels in the Pathogenesis and Severity of COVID-19 Disease
To assess blood levels of vasoactive mediators that may regulate pulmonary endothelial permeability and contribute to multi-organ injury in patients with COVID-19 disease and to correlate the levels of these mediators with disease outcomes such as ICU admission, length of ventilatory support, respiratory failure, kidney failure, heart failure, and death.
Regulation of Inflammatory Genes in Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic and recurrent skin disorder characterized by marked inflammatory changes in the skin. An extensive cytokine network including generated by activated dendritic cells and T cells mediates the formation of psoriatic lesions. These immune-response parameters can be used as markers in the severity and management of the …
CARBON: UAB Cardiovascular Research Biobank
The UAB Cardiovascular Research Biobank (CARBON) will be a resource that contains biological materials, such as DNA samples, in addition to health and personal information on a large number of people over time. It will be set up so that it can be used in the future as a resource …
Sex, Hormones and Identity Affect Nociceptive Expression
The Investigators have recently published on differences in pain sensitivity measures between cis and trans individuals in the local area. The investigators observed the anticipated differences in pain sensitivity between CM and CW (CW > CM), but found that the TW were phenotypically similar to CW in all measures. However, …
Impact of Gut Microbiome on Metabolic and Bowel Function During the First Year After Spinal Cord Injury
The Investigators will recruit 50 participants with acute SCI (within 72 hours of injury) Fasting blood collection and bowel function survey will be conducted 4 times: at baseline [the time of first stool sample, within 72 hours of injury] and 1, 6, and 12 months after SCI. Stool will be …
