ReadMap: Reading in Stroke Alexia and Typical Aging
Loss of reading ability due to stroke, called alexia, likely affects over a million Americans at any given time and causes difficulty performing many daily life functions, such as paying bills, using email/text, reading for pleasure, and reading signs in the community. Understanding the brain and cognitive basis of alexia …
In Search of Best Practices for Patients With Heart Failure and Secondary Mitral Regurgitation: An Evaluation of the Inova Heart Failure Treatment Algorithm
The overarching goal of this research proposal is to study the feasibility and clinical impact of implementing an Inova system-wide heart failure treatment algorithm for patients with symptomatic heart failure due to reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFreF) and secondary MR Aim is to check the effectiveness of the IHFTA …
Heart Health Study in Washington D.C. to Develop a Community-Based Behavioral Weight Loss Intervention
Background Past studies suggest that the best way to improve heart health in the Black community is through community-based programs. Researchers will partner with DC community leaders. They will collect information about the health and health needs of people in mostly Black churches in DC. They will study things that …
Natural History Study of CADASIL
Background CADASIL (cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarct and leukoencephalopathy) is a genetic disorder. It causes narrowing of the small blood vessels and can lead to strokes and dementia. Researchers want to monitor people with CADASIL over time. Objective To learn more about how CADASIL affects a person s …
Cross-Sectional Evaluation of Persistence of SARS-CoV-2 Remnants After Recovery From Acute Infection

Study to Understand the Genetic Risk of Developing an Immune Response After Blood Transfusions Among Individuals With Sickle Cell Disease
The purpose of this research study is to look at genes and determine how they interact with each other to find changes that could explain why some people's immune systems may respond to blood transfusions. This response is called an alloimmune response. We strongly believe that when someone has an …
