Neuroimaging and Neuropsychological Outcomes in Urea Cycle Disorders
In proximal urea cycle disorders (UCD), particularly ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD), hyperammonemia (HA) causes increased brain glutamine (Gln) which perturbation is thought to be at the core of the neurological injury. In contrast, in distal UCD such as citrullinemia (argininosuccinate synthetase deficiency; (ASSD) and argininosuccinic aciduria (argininosuccinate lyase deficiency); (ASLD) …
A Study to Assess Growth in Children With Idiopathic Short Stature
Study 111-903 will generate baseline growth data in children with ISS by collecting growth measurements and other variables of interest.
The Effect of Sex Steroid Replacement Therapy in the Hypogonadism and Transgender Active-Duty Population
It has been known that both estrogen and testosterone are the major sex steroids regulating bone metabolism and other physiological changes in both male and female, respectively. In postmenopausal women, osteoporosis is a major concern secondary to the lack of estrogen. These patients also experience a number of physiological changes …
CtDNA Based MRD Testing for NAC Monitoring in TNBC
A prospective, multicenter, observational study to evaluate the correlation of Molecular Residual Disease (MRD) detection using circulating tumor DNA guided test to pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in stage I-III triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Results from this study aim to improve MRD detection and disease outcomes …
A Prospective Natural History and Outcome Measure Validation Study of Congenital Myasthenic Syndromes
Background Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMSs) are a group of inherited disorders that affect how the nerves communicate with muscles. These can cause many problems that affect how people can move and use their bodies. Objective This is a natural history study to learn more about how CMSs affect the body …
Predicting Future Errors During Skill Performance
Background Many tasks people do every day require a series of individual movements. Control over these movements is called motor skills. But even highly skilled people can make mistakes. Researchers have found that they can predict when a person will make a mistake 0.1 second before it happens. Now, they …
Admission and Management of Occupational or Other Exposures to Biodefense/Bioterrorism Agents or to Epidemic/Emerging Infectious Diseases
Background Increased clinical attention has been paid to the evaluation and management of bioterrorism-related illness (such as anthrax infection) and emerging infectious diseases (such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome [SARS] and new strains of influenza). However, evaluation and treatment data for these illnesses are often limited because human infections to …

Evaluation of Patients With Gastrointestinal Disease
Background Ongoing and future research projects that study gastrointestinal diseases depend on access to biological samples and clinical data. Researchers want to study people who are seen and treated for these diseases. This may help them assess and treat these diseases better in the future. Objective To collect data and …
The Oxford Risk Factors And Non-Invasive Imaging Study
ORFAN is a prospective, multi-centre, multi-ethnic cohort observational study collecting CT scans, biological material and outcomes data, to develop and validate novel biomarkers of cardiometabolic and other disease risk.
