Observational Digital Biomarker Discovery in Respiratory Virus Challenge Studies
Background Respiratory viruses circulate throughout the year and around the globe. Wearable and sensor devices, like smartwatches, may be able to help monitor infectious diseases. Researchers want to use them to learn how respiratory viruses affect people in different ways. Objective To use digital devices to collect data from participants …
Screening and Natural History of Patients With Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia and the McCune-Albright Syndrome
Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD) is a sporadic disorder which affects multiple sites in the skeleton. The bone at these sites is rapidly resorbed and replaced by abnormal fibrous tissue or mechanically abnormal bone. PFD may occur alone or as part of the McCune-Albright Syndrome (MAS), a syndrome originally defined by …
Biorepository in Participants Who Undergo OTC for Gonadotoxic Therapy
Background Medical advances have improved survival rates for many cancers and other illnesses. This means that more people are coping with the long-term effects of these treatments. Some treatments can cause female infertility. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) may help. Before undergoing a treatment that may damage their fertility, patients may …
Drug-Induced Liver Injury (DILI) Network Retrospective
The purpose of this study is to establish retrospectively a nationwide registry of patients who have suffered drug-induced liver injury (DILI), and to collect, immortalize, and store serum, DNA, and lymphocytes from these patients. ILIAD will serve as a resource for subsequent mechanistic investigations into the basis of severe idiosyncratic …

Therapeutic Endpoint in Pediatric IBD Conditions
The purpose of this clinical study is the development of physiologic endpoint of inflammation in pediatric patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), specifically subtypes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). The novel medical device evaluates the patient's sensory response to each of the three sensory nerve fiber types. …
Microbiome Population Adaptation Study
The investigators will accomplish our research aims by collecting cutaneous microbiome samples from 50 persons that have undergone the Osseointegration (OI) surgery at eight timepoints, prospectively. The investigators will also collect control samples to correct for turnovers in species compositions that may naturally occur and to compare the residual limb …
Ultra-Low Field (ULF) Point-of-Care (POC) MRI System for Brain Morphology and Pathology
Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a tool for getting pictures of the tissues and organs inside the body. MRI can help diagnose many injuries and diseases. But not all patients are equally likely to receive MRIs. Factors such as race or ethnicity, distance to imaging centers, mobility, and a …
Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) Evaluation and Research of Clinical, ImmUnoLogic and TranscriptomE Study
Background Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a disease caused by disrupted immune function. People with HLH are prone to fevers and illnesses, which can be fatal. Some people develop a genetic form of this disease (pHLH), but researchers do not understand why some other people develop a nongenetic form (sHLH). They …
The Effect of Teprotumumab on Thyroid Eye Disease and Thyroid Dysfunction
This protocol studies the clinical outcome of patients with active thyroid disease with visually significant signs and symptoms of proptosis, pain, diplopiam lid/orbital edema, or lid/orbital erythema recommended for treatment with teprotumumab infusion (Tepezza®). Patients recommended for treatment will be evaluated by an oculoplastic surgeon (Dr. Eva Chou) and endocrinologist …
