Esophageal String Test Monitoring to Monitor Eosinophilic Esophagitis During Oral Immunotherapy
Patients with IgE mediated food Allergy have elevated risk of eosinophilic esophagitis, and new therapies like oral immunotherapy (OIT) carry additional risk of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE). The goal of this study is to investigate the Esophageal String Test (EST) as a screening tool for Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) during OIT therapy. …
Clinical Data Registry of Amblyopia Patients on Luminopia Treatment
Amblyopia is the most prevalent cause of reduced monocular visual acuity in children and young adults, with estimates of prevalence ranging from 1% to 5%. The most common associated amblyogenic risk factors are uncorrected anisometropia, strabismus, or a combination of these. In addition to reduced visual acuity, amblyopic patients may …
Lung Injury is One of the Primary Causes of Morbidity and Mortality in Critically Ill Patients. These Patients Will be Monitored for: 1) Immune Cell Activation 2) Blood-based Biomarkers. In Vitro Models Derived From These Samples Will be Treated With Novel Agent PIP-2 to Evaluate Its Efficacy.
Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a condition where high levels of inflammation damage the lung. This is a highly morbid condition with no specific pharmacologic therapies. The investigators posit that ARDS is caused due to an exaggerated activation of immune cells and that blockade …
UAB HRFD Core Center: Core A: The Hepato/Renal Fibrocystic Diseases Translational Resource
In 2005, The University of Alabama at Birmingham established a NIDDK-funded, interdisciplinary center of excellence in PKD-related research, with specific emphasis on recessive PKD. In the previous Core Center award period, we developed a Core Resource to capture clinical and mutational data for ARPKD patients ("Core A: ARPKD Clinical and …
A Study to Check Liver Health in Boys With XLMTM, a Serious Genetic Muscle Condition
XLMTM (X-linked myotubular myopathy) is a serious genetic muscle condition. It is caused by changes in the MTM1 gene which stops or slows down normal muscle development, causing severe muscle weakness. There is currently no cure for XLMTM. Ongoing care is needed to manage symptoms and prevent further medical problems …
Multidimensional Phenotype Classification in Grade 3 Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD), or chronic lung disease of prematurity, is the most consequential complication of preterm birth and is strong predictor of childhood pulmonary and neurodevelopmental disability, particularly in infants diagnosed with grade 3 BPD (ventilator dependence at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age), the most severe disease form. This study aims …
Myocardial Mechanisms in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
The purpose of this study is to identify changes in heart tissue structure and biological function in patients with heart failure by performing an endomyocardial biopsy (EMB or heart biopsy) during a right heart catheterization (RHC). The ultimate goal is to use this information to develop new treatments for heart …
A Study of Participants with Β-Thalassemia Treated with Betibeglogene Autotemcel
The main aim of this study is to collect real-world longitudinal data on participants with β-thalassemia treated with betibeglogene autotemcel (beti-cel) in the post marketing setting. To assess the long-term safety, including the risk of newly diagnosed malignancies, after treatment with beti-cel and evaluate the long-term effectiveness of treatment with …
Prostate Tissue BioBank
Prostate cancer is also the most common cancer in men with inherited pathogenic variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2. Beyond BRCA1/2, other genes are known to increase the risk of prostate cancer, including ATM, TP53 and HOXB13. We have shown that 5% of men diagnosed with prostate cancer localized to their …
Cholate Clearance in Fontan and Heart Failure
The goal of this study is to use the HepQuant dual cholate clearance assay, which has been shown to measure liver function in people with known chronic liver conditions, to assess severity of Fontan-associated liver disease (FALD). This study aims to understand the role impaired blood flow to the liver …
