This project builds on the Michigan Contraceptive Access Research and Evaluation Study (M-CARES) to evaluate the long-term effects of mothers' access to free contraceptives and reductions in unintended pregnancies on their children's well-being.
Adjuvant chemotherapy has been widely adopted worldwide for locally advanced colon cancer. However, more and more studies have found better efficacy and potential advantages of perioperative or neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The sooner the systemic chemotherapy is received, the better suppression it has on activity of tumor growth factors. Pre-operative chemotherapy may …
Diagnostic performance of low-dose chest CT scan combined with lung-RADS classification (version 1.1) for lung cancer screening among former and current smokers.
BASIS aims to implement a whole-of-community intervention in Brooklyn for improving diet and the social and /built environments for English-, Chinese-, Spanish-, and Bangla-speaking communities. This is achieved through five main pillars: by 1) improving food access (subsidized, culturally tailored fresh produce box program), 2) providing nutrition education, 3) conducting …
This Study is designed to assess CVD incidence, prevalence, progression and related risk factors, including genetic background. It will provide an important base for all cardiovascular research activities in our centre and help in designing future studies and guide policy.
This longitudinal study looks to quantify the testing timeline, operational barriers, and outcomes of biomarker-guided therapy in a large, community-based, and largely unselected patient population with early stage and advanced stage, treatment-naive non-small cell lung cancer, whether squamous or non-squamous.
Troponin T (TnT) is a part of the troponin protein complex that principally exists in cardiac and skeletal muscle cells and is widely used as diagnostic biomarker for myocardial injury and, thus, myocardial infarction (MI). Elevated TnT levels can, however, be observed in the presence of other clinical conditions such …
Background Cancer therapies have significantly improved over the last decades, allowing cancer specialists to keep cancer under control for longer than ever before. However, metastatic cancer still develops in a large number of patients and drug resistance occurs in the majority of them after an initial period of response and …
Objectives This protocol addresses the first phase of a larger project funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute to help heavy smokers make informed decisions about lung cancer screening with low-dose computed tomography (CT). A separate IRB protocol will be submitted for the larger, comparative study. In this initial development …
The purpose of this study is to collect data to develop and evaluate the use of state-of-the-art machine learning approaches within a mobile phone application for the estimation of blood pressure.
