Comparison of Prone Position and Standard Electrocardiogram in COVID-19 Patients
Prolonged prone position ventilation reduces the 30-day mortality in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and in COVID-19 infection. A large number of patients with COVID-19 suffered from new-onset cardiac disease, therefore, ECG is crucial. However, there is limited data on the effects of prone position on the ECG in COVID-19 …
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) Monitoring of Regional Ventilation During Pediatric Laparoscopy
The goal of this prospective, observational study is to describe EIT measurements at different time points during the perioperative period in healthy children undergoing laparoscopic surgery. The objective is to evaluate the impact of general anesthesia and laparoscopy on regional pulmonary ventilation visualized at EIT during the perioperative period.
Characterization of T-cell Repertoire in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia Undergoing Donor Stem Cell Transplant
This research trial studies characterization of T-cell repertoire through next-generation sequencing in patients with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing stem cell transplant. Characterizing T-cell repertoire may help to understand if immune system plays a significant role in high risk patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
Discovering Factors in the Clinical Study Journey of Patients With OCD
This research aims to collect comprehensive data on the clinical trial experience of OCD patients. Its goal is to identify the factors that limit patients' ability to join or complete a trial successfully. Clinical trial participation often favors specific demographic groups, and limited research exists on the impact of trial …
Exploration of Predictive Markers of Neoadjuvant Immunotherapy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy has become the standard perioperative treatment in lung cancer, but its effective predictive biomarkers are lacking. A small cohort reported that homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) can be used as a reliable biomarker to predict the efficacy of neoadjuvant immunotherapy, but the findings need to be validated in larger …
Mechanisms of Type 1 Diabetes Endophenotypes
The goal of this observational study consists of performing cluster analysis to decipher underlying disease mechanisms of type 1 diabetes in children and young adults. To this end, we will combine clinical, laboratory, genetic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic datasets of an extensively phenotyped cohort of children and young adults with type …
Real-time Pressure Volume Loop Monitoring as a Guide for Enhanced Understanding of Changes in Elemental Cardiovascular Physiology During Therapeutic Strategies Aiming for Hemodynamic Optimization. Cohort I: Veno-arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (PLUTO-I)
Invasive pressure-volume (PV) loop measurements have the potential to confirm or refute earlier computer simulations and animal studies regarding changes in cardiovascular physiology induced by (veno-arterial) ECMO. PV loop analysis could create a framework for the (ICU-) clinician for VA-ECMO weaning guidance, based on a patient's individual hemodynamic profile. PV …
Blocking TNF to Potentiate the ICI-dependent Immune Awakening in Melanoma
Cutaneous melanoma is a bad prognosis skin cancer, which can be treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), such as anti-PD-1 (nivolumab, nivo) and anti-CTLA-4 (ipilimumab, ipi). However, about 50% of patients do not respond or relapse within 3 years post therapy induction, and immune-related adverse events (irAEs), such as colitis, …
Hormonal Responses to a Mixed Meal in People With Cystic Fibrosis
In this exploratory study, the hormonal responses to a mixed meal will be examined in people with cystic fibrosis. The aim of this study is to find correlates with impaired glucose tolerance that is associated with this population.
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 …
