Genomic Predictors of Papillary Microcarcinoma Disease Progression
The study is being done to answer the following question: What are the specific clinical and molecular features that will help us predict which small thyroid cancers are likely to grow and be problematic? Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify specific clinical and molecular characteristics that are …
Dupilumab Treatment Effects in an Ethnically Diverse Population With Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyposis
The central hypothesis of this study is that the addition of dupilumab treatment onto standard-of-care intranasal corticosteroids will improve patient-reported measures of disease activity and sense of smell in a cohort of mostly ethnical and racial minority patients with CRSwNP
Polycystic Kidney Disease Data Repository
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is the most common inherited kidney disease, affecting more than 400,000 people in the U.S. and 5 million people worldwide. PKD is the 4th most common cause of kidney failure requiring dialysis and/or transplantation. Over half of all PKD patients develop kidney failure by …
Change in Stroke Volume Index After Diuresis for Patients With Decompensated Heart Failure
This is a prospective cohort study for 50 patients admitted to the cardiac care unit requiring clinically-indicated diuretic therapy for congestive heart failure. The purpose of this study is to assess the role of non-invasive cardiac output monitoring (NICOM) with the Starling Fluid Management System (Baxter Medical, Deerfield, IL) in …
RFA Treatment for Papillary Thyroid Microcarcinoma
Thyroid surgery has always been the mainstay of treatment for thyroid cancer. Thyroid surgery carries a low risk of complications that include recurrent or superior laryngeal nerve injury leading to voice changes, hypoparathyroidism, hypothyroidism with need for thyroid hormone supplementation, and unsightly scarring. Although many patients with thyroid cancer find …
Using MRI To Detect Soft Tissue Reactions And Implant Integration As Related To Implant Modularity
Patients with a total hip replacement may require early revision surgery due to an adverse local tissue reaction or bone resorption that occurs due to wear debris released from the implant. MRI provides a non-invasive biomarker for clinicians and surgeons to detect early adverse synovial reactions which may exist in …
Assessing Dynamic Reading Behaviors Using Eye-Tracking Tobii Glasses
HYPOTHESIS Horizontal convergence tracked with Tobii glasses is a reliable substitute for accommodation in young myopes and hyperopes with normal accommodative amplitudes Young mypopes and hyperopes demonstrate different reading behaviors during near work AIMS & OBJECTIVES: Compare the accommodative responses measured with the Grand Seiko open-field autorefractor to those derived …
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Families Project
This program provides family members of individuals with familial ALS the opportunity to contribute to research focused on learning more about why motor neuron degeneration begins and how or why it progresses. This study provides genetic counseling and testing to help participants understand and manage their risk and determine if …
The Natural History Study of Mitochondrial NeuroGastroIntestinal Encephalopathy (MNGIE)
This is a multi-center natural history study of Mitochondrial NeurogastroIntestinal Encephalopathy (MNGIE). Patients will be followed over time to assess clinical symptoms. The investigators hope to learn more about the disease of MNGIE as well as develop useful measures of disease status for use in future clinical trials. Additional clinical …
Tumor Microenvironment Analysis of Prostate Cancer Metastasis
The purpose of this study is to collect prostate cancer tissue from males with metastatic prostate cancers in order to study the tumor microenvironment (TME), which is the area surrounding the tumor including cells, blood vessels, etc., in men with metastatic prostate cancer. The type of research performed on these …
