Genetic Study of Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS)
Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a condition with several causes of which some remain unknown. It is believed that some types of CP may be genetic or passed down (inherited) from one generation to the next. In this study, we are collecting genetic material and medical information to …
Extracellular RNA Biomarkers of Myotonic Dystrophy
Current methods of measuring the response to new treatments for muscular dystrophies involve the examination of small pieces of muscle tissue called biopsies. The investigators are interested in finding less invasive methods that reduce the need for muscle biopsies. The purpose of this research is to learn about the possibility …
Mechanisms of Increased Disease Severity in AD Patients With the IL-4Ra R576 Polymorphism
This protocol is primarily looking to see if the IL-4Ra R576 polymorphism is associated with increased clinical, immunological and microbial markers of disease activity in patients with Atopic dermatitis.
STRIVE Post-Market Registry Study
This is a single-arm, prospective, multi-center, Registry study to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Spiration Valve System (SVS) for the treatment of severe emphysema in a post-market setting.
Type 1 Diabetes Extension Study
This is a multi-center, prospective, non-interventional study that focuses on the longterm effects following participation in selected ITN new-onset Type1 Diabetes Mellitus studies with immunomodulatory agents (T1DM, T1D). This observational study will: follow participants to determine how long they continue to produce insulin, and will also assess how changes in …
Neutrophil Phenotypic Profiling and Acute Lung Injury in Patients After Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)
Acute lung injury (ALI) following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a serious complication, often prolonging the length of stay in ICU and potentially dealing to mortality. The objective of this study is to assess the mechanism of CPB-mediated acute lung injury in pediatric patients.
PV Loop & Coarctation Study
Coarctation of the aorta accounts for 4-7% of all congenital heart disease. While stent therapy, when feasible, is the standard of care for coarctation, it may not completely improve the work (and afterload) of the heart due to its effects on the elasticity of the aorta. This study will provide …
Perinatal Brain Injury: Potential of Innovative NIRS to Optimize Hypothermia
The purpose of this study is to improve the ability of the investigators to monitor brain health in newborn babies at risk of brain injuries. The researchers will be using an investigational system of devices to non-invasively (that, is, without penetrating the skin), measure the amount of oxygen going to …
mTBI Identification and Monitoring Through Retinal Scanning
Rebion has developed a device, the Rebion trauma tool (referred to as the head and intraocular trauma tool, or "HITT"), that detects ocular fixation and alignment using a binocular retinal scan. Preliminary data obtained from hospitalized patients with a clinically-confirmed traumatic brain injury (TBI) and uninjured controls indicates that the …
Registry and Natural History Study for Early Onset Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
The Registry and Natural History Study for Early Onset Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) is focused on gathering longitudinal clinical data as well as biological samples (skin and/or blood and/or saliva) from male or female patients who exhibited onset of HSP symptoms at 18 years old or younger with (1) a …
