The Physiology of Human Brown Adipose Tissue
Brown fat is a type of fat, found in both children and adults, which can produce heat and regulate the body's metabolism and energy use. White fat is the more common type of fat which is used to store extra calories. Understanding more about differences between brown and white fat …
CAP-100 for Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Introduction of immuno-chemotherapy in the treatment options of CLL and SLL changed the treatment paradigm of these diseases. Presently, first-line therapies for CLL/SLL include targeted therapies (e.g. ibrutinib, acalabrutinib) or combined immuno-chemotherapy regimens (e.g., fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab for patients aged <65 years without del17p/TP53 mutations or bendamustine and rituximab …
3D Dynamic and Patient-Centered Outcomes of Facial Reanimation Surgery in Patients With Facial Paralysis
In this study, patients who have undergone facial paralysis surgery will be asked to participate. The goal of this study is to compare the facial disability and perception outcomes of facial reanimation surgeries in patients with extensive and permanent, unilateral paralysis using 3D analysis, and compare patient-centered outcomes of facial …
Pharmacokinetics of Sedatives and Analgesics During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) Support
This study will measure plasma concentrations of dexmedetomidine, fentanyl, morphine and midazolam in pediatric patients supported with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) aiming to understand the pharmacokinetics of these drugs in this setting.
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 …
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 …
Psychological Response and Readiness Associated With OCD of the Knee
This study primarily aims to determine whether patients diagnosed with osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the knee experience psychological stress due to their diagnosis and treatment plan. Secondarily, this study aims to determine whether knee OCD patients experience a change in stress and depression as they progress through their standard-of-care treatment …
