MRI Assessment of Placental Health
The ultimate goal of this project is to develop methods that allow informed decision-making on the delivery time of fetuses that are at increased risk of stillbirth due to IUGR. In placenta related IUGR pregnancies, there can be multiple concurrent placental pathologies. Although there is no specific correspondence between a …
A Novel Wearable Digital Biomarker for Detecting Changes in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Condition
To measure the effectiveness of a Remote Patient Monitoring solution based on the use of a smart insole wearable device (and associated smart phone app), for monitoring MS patients' condition on a day-to-day basis. The main focus is the objective measurement of gait, given that 75% of people with MS …
A Study to Test the Diagnostic Potential of Brillouin Microscopy for Corneal Ectasia
We have developed novel Brillouin microscopy and we are testing its potential for keratoconus and ectasia diagnostics. We plan to perform axial scans of the cornea in human volunteers in order to compare biomechanical properties of Keratoconus vs. Normal corneas and compare biomechanical properties of post-LASIK ectasia vs. normal corneas.
A Pilot Study on Neuroimaging in SCD: Part of The Boston Consortium to Cure Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) impairs oxygen transport to tissue and causes endothelial injury. Thus, therapeutic interventions aim to improve both, but there is an unmet need for biomarkers to determine when intervention is necessary and evaluate the effectiveness of the chosen intervention in individual patients. This study proposes to monitor …
Stroke Motor Rehabilitation and Recovery Study
SMaHRT (Stroke Motor reHabiliation and Recovery sTudy) is a longitudinal study aimed at understanding the natural history of upper extremity motor recovery after ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke.
Skeletal Health and Bone Marrow Composition in Newly Diagnosed Adolescents With Crohn Disease
The investigators will be evaluating bone marrow composition via magnetic resonance imaging in newly diagnosed adolescents with Crohn disease (CD) compared to healthy, matched controls. The investigators will also be assessing their bone mineral density via other imaging modalities, including dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and peripheral quantitative computed tomography. This longitudinal …
Study to Evaluate Biological & Clinical Effects of Significantly Corrected CFTR Function in Infants & Young Children
This is a two-part, multi-center, prospective longitudinal, exploratory study of highly effective cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators and their impact on children with cystic fibrosis (CF).
Lung Recruitment Maneuver as a Potential Predictor of Fluid Responsiveness in Mechanically Ventilated Pediatric Patients
In this research study we want to learn more about using non-invasive tools as a way to predict whether or not a child under general anesthesia will require and respond to fluid administration. It is important for an anesthesiologist to know if a child would respond to fluid administration so …
Biomarker Profiling in Individuals at Risk for Prion Disease
We are doing this research to identify biomarkers in individuals who are at-risk for familial prion disease. We hope to use these biomarkers to predict timing of disease onset in pre-symptomatic individuals and to guide the direction of future clinical trials.
Evaluation of Pro-Inflammatory Leukocyte Activity in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
The goal of this proposal is to prospectively collect data from a series of 100 patients (all ages) undergoing complex cardiac surgical procedures involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to Measure the number of blood activated circulating monocytes before, during and after cardiac surgery and serum GABA and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels Understand …
