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 …
Circuit-Based Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease P1A2&3 Catalyst
This study will help us better understand how the brain works in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). PD is a brain disease that gets worse over time, and affects over 10 million people world-wide. A common treatment for PD is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). To improve DBS therapy for PD, …
Autonomic Regulation of Blood Pressure in Premature and Early Menopausal Women
This is a cross-sectional study in which the investigators will determine the impact of premature/early menopause on MSNA, BP and baroreflex sensitivity in younger (≤49 yr old) and older (≥50 yr old) women. Specifically, aim one will determine mechanisms driving autonomic dysregulation of BP in premature and early menopausal women …
Extracellular Vesicles as Potential Biomarkers and Therapeutic Target in Gaucher Disease
This is an observational study intended to generate preliminary data to understand how lysosomal dysfunction can affect the biogenesis of extracellular vesicles, its content and function. The primary objective of the proposed project is to decipher how extracellular vesicle (EV) biogenesis and its role in intercellular communication can be impaired …
North American Prodromal Synucleinopathy Consortium Stage 2
This study will enroll participants with idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) and healthy controls for the purpose of preparing for a clinical trial of neuroprotective treatments against synucleinopathies.
Natural History Study for DNA Repair Disorders
This will be a single-center, single-arm, non-interventional natural history study to evaluate the longitudinal clinical course, functional outcome measures, and candidate biomarkers for individuals with DNA repair disorders, including Cockayne syndrome (CS), xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), and trichothiodystrophy (TTD).
MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY BIOMARKERS IN TYPE 3 GAUCHER DISEASE (GD3)
Recent studies have has shown that magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) can provide validated neuronal markers in patients with Type 1 GD (GD1) who are on stable therapy. However, alterations in neurometabolites in adult patients with GD3, who have established neurological involvement, are not well understood. The goal of this study …
Myopenia and Mechanisms of Chemotherapy Toxicity in Older Adults With Colorectal Cancer
This study will examine the association between low muscle mass (myopenia) at diagnosis and chemotherapy toxicity in older adults with newly diagnosed advanced colorectal cancer.
Left Ventricular Physiological Effects of Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support During Cardiogenic Shock
A Clinical Events Committee (CEC) will include Cardiac Surgery Professor and chief of cardiac surgery Rose Kelly MD, Professor of Medicine Ganesh Raveendran MD at the University of Minnesota who is the direction of Interventional Cardiology and Professor of Medicine at the University of Minnesota David Benditt. They will review …
Brain Connectivity Patterns in Chronic Temporomandibular Joint Disorders
This study addresses the timely problem of painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD), the most common cause of orofacial pain second only to tooth pain. Findings from previous studies suggest that dysregulation of connectivity within specific brain circuits is part of chronic pain pathophysiology. This study will identify connectivity patterns within those …
