Atrial Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Patients With Repaired Congenital Heart Disease
In this research study the investigators want to learn more about how well the investigators can visualize scar tissue in the heart by MRI. In patients with congenital heart disease who need a procedure in the electrophysiology laboratory, how the MRI findings match the findings in the electrophysiology laboratory is …
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.
Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy as an Imaging Biomarker for the Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cystic Lesions
The study schema is shown in Figure 4. (A) All patients referred to one of the participating academic centers for EUS evaluation of the PCL will be enrolled in the protocol if they satisfy inclusion criteria. Patient consent will be obtained during the clinic visit or prior to their EUS. …
A Long-term Study Evaluating Hepatotoxicity Associated With TURALIO™ (Pexidartinib) Treatment
A study to evaluate the long-term risk of hepatic failure with TURALIO™ (pexidartinib) and the mechanism of liver injury based upon liver biopsy information among patients who received or are receiving TURALIO™ (pexidartinib) and experience hepatotoxicity.
Implementation of a Consensus-Based Discharge Protocol for Preterm Infants With Lung Disease
The researchers have worked to create consensus recommendations among national efforts to help with the transition and coordination of care for preterm infants with lung disease around discharge from the neonatal intensive care unit to home. This study looks to evaluate implementation of the recommendations at Boston Children's Hospital and …
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 …
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.
fMRI and IVCM Cornea Microscopy of CXL in Keratoconus
Evaluation of neuroplasticity of pain pathways and corneal afferent nerve regeneration following corneal crosslinking (CXL) in keratoconus patients using fMRI and corneal In Vivo Confocal Microscopy (IVCM).
