Testicular Evaluation of Azoospermia Using Micro-Ultrasound
The investigation is a small feasibility study to determine whether there are imaging features related to the seminiferous tubules in the testes under microultrasound. The results from this study will provide guidance on the design and power analysis of future studies in this area.
Surveillance for Malignant Transformation of Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) Related Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors (PNST)
Background Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disease that can cause many symptoms. About half of people with NF1 will develop benign (noncancerous) tumors along nerves in the skin, brain, and other parts of the body. Sometimes, though, these tumors can become cancerous. Researchers do not yet know how …
Effect of Intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxinA Injection Versus Conservative Management on Female Sexual Function in Patients With Bladder Pain Syndrome
Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is estimated to affect 3.3 to 7.9 million women aged 18 years and older in the United States. The American Urological Association (AUA) defines IC/BPS as "an unpleasant sensation (pain, pressure, discomfort) perceived to be related to the urinary bladder, associated with lower urinary tract …
Cognitive Aftereffects of Neurotoxicity in Children and Young Adults With Relapsed/Refractory Hematologic Malignancies Who Receive CAR T-cell Therapy
Background CAR T-cell therapy is a promising new treatment for blood cancers. During treatment, a person s T-cells are genetically changed to kill cancer cells. Researchers want to learn more about the effects of potential problems that may be associated with this treatment. We are specifically interested in learning if …
Screening for Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) and Cognitive Function in Individuals With History of Stroke
Background Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States. It is also a leading cause of disability. More than 70% of people who survive strokes have mental impairment or dementia. Medical factors, such as the severity of the stroke, affect whether a person will have mental …
RevCore for In Stent Thrombosis
The purpose of this research is to collect information about how the RevCore Thrombectomy Catheter works to treat stent blockages.
Development of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures Assessing Tumor-Related Disfigurement and Appearance Concerns in Neurofibromatosis Type 1
Background Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) is a disease that causes tumors to grow along the nerves. These include plexiform neurofibromas (pNF) and cutaneous neurofibromas (cNF). Both pNF and cNF can be visible to other people. These tumors can affect a person s appearance and quality of life. Researchers want to be …
Metagenomics Next-generation Sequencing Approach to Detect Microbial DNA/RNA Overtime in Individuals Undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant
Infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The purpose of this study is to evaluate if metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) can detect microbial signatures in people undergoing HSCT, and if microbial identification can be correlated with clinical features of infection …
Natural History Study of CADASIL
Background CADASIL (cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarct and leukoencephalopathy) is a genetic disorder. It causes narrowing of the small blood vessels and can lead to strokes and dementia. Researchers want to monitor people with CADASIL over time. Objective To learn more about how CADASIL affects a person s …
Blood Sampling for Research Related to Sickle Cell Disease
This study will collect representative blood samples from healthy children and adults and from children and adults who have unique red blood cell features that are related to sickle cell disease. Sickle cell disease is a blood disease that limits the ability of red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout …
