Feeling stress when you are dealing with a condition or illness is common. We want to understand what that stress is and feels like for Latino adults who have been told by a medical professional that they have prediabetes (or blood glucose that is higher than normal but not quite diabetes). Getting experiences with prediabetes will help up better understand how to measure it and help future healthcare providers better understand the needs of Latinos with prediabetes. El estrés del automanejo de una condición como prediabetes no es fácil. En este estudio estamos interesados en entender las experiences de adultos Latinos con prediabetes. El objetivo es mejorar como profesionales de salud interactúan con Latinos con prediabetes para mejorar su calidad de vida.

In this study, we want to learn how to help people better understand and engage with data. This work on data visualization projects aims to provide visualization design guidelines enabling people to better understand and engage with data. In this study, we will show the participants different types of graphs and ask them a few questions about those graphs.

The aim of this project is to assess the procedural skills of residents before and after implementation of a Urogynecology Resident Bootcamp prior to the start of their Urogynecology rotation. This bootcamp will include surgical simulations with a focus on vaginal hysterectomies. The bootcamp will also include assembly of a cystoscope and a video demonstrating cystoscopy during a urogynecologic surgery. As is currently routine in our program, residents will receive feedback using a formative feedback system called myTIPreport after they perform surgeries during the rotation. We hypothesize that this bootcamp will improve residents' feedback on performing a hysterectomy when compared to residents' feedback prior to implementation of this curriculum using myTIPreport. We will also evaluate if there is a change with overall resident satisfaction with the Urogynecology rotation and comfort level with performing vaginal hysterectomies in independent practice.

We are doing this study to learn if exercise impacts the effect of social tasks on energy use and heart function. Since exercise may impact metabolic factors such as energy use as well as the impact of social situations on cardiovascular disease, we want to see how exercise impacts the effect of social situations on energy and metabolism, and whether this may affect your heart health.

The Lower Extremity Assessment Protocol (LEAP) is a program to prevent reinjury and promote long-term health by characterizing muscle function, evaluating movement performance, and monitoring patient-reported outcomes (e.g., pain). The purpose of this study is to learn more about the outcomes following orthopaedic surgery after a lower limb injury. *This study is a collaboration with the UNC Sports Medicine Institute*

In this study, we want to learn more about health behaviors and access to health information from families with children under six.

We now know there is a link between sedentary behavior (e.g., sitting) and heart disease. However, we do not yet fully understand if sedentary behavior performed in different settings and situations (e.g., sitting alone watching television vs sitting with friends at a bar) differentially impacts heart disease risk. This is what this study aims to find out.

Want to help improve the treatment of people with chronic blood cancers? We are looking for healthy volunteers to take part in a simple blood-draw study. If you are generally healthy and are not taking blood thinners, you may be able to help improve treatment for patients with chronic blood cancers by donating a tablespoon of blood. This study aims to understand why individuals with chronic blood cancers have a high risk of blood clots as compared to healthy individuals, by comparing (1) the ability of blood to clot in a test tube and (2) changes in white blood cells that make them more likely to stick to blood vessels between healthy individuals and individuals with chronic blood cancers.

The purpose of this study is to assess if a filmed dramatized story intervention (telenovela/soap opera) called Infección de Amor (Love Infection), a culturally tailored and technology delivered intervention for Latinas in the United States (US) can help Latinas prevent HIV infection. Participants will be Latinas ages 18-44 years who report sexual activity with a man in the last 6 months, have internet access from any device, and reside in NC.

The purpose of this study is to explore ways to reduce anxiety in young dental patients. Having dental anxiety in childhood can lead to avoiding dental care in adulthood. This can lead to reduced quality of life and many dental problems, such as cavities, extractions, infections and emergent care.
