We are studying how to make medical test results easier for patients to understand. Pathology reports, which explain what doctors find in tissue samples, are often written for medical professionals and can be hard for patients to read. In this study, we are testing whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help explain these reports in plain language. Patients having a routine screening procedure will read a sample report with or without an AI-generated explanation. Then they will answer questions about how well they understood the report and how they felt about it. We want to learn if using AI helps people better understand their health information and feel more confident making decisions. This will help improve the way test results are shared in the future.

To develop a curriculum for resident education in ultrasound for quality improvement in diagnosis, surveillance and management of multiple areas

The purpose of this evaluation will be to assess how the NC-DSS competencies and learning objectives for the Child Welfare in North Carolina -Pre-service Course are integrated into the curriculum of NC Social Work programs participating in the NC-Child Welfare Education Collaborative (NC-CWEC) program. NC-CWEC is a statewide consortium of social work programs that are incorporating NC-DSS competencies and learning objectives that address child welfare practice into the curriculum of their social work programs.

We seek to obtain insight into how the increased use of AI-related technologies has and will impact the accounting profession. This is part of an existing research paper that uses empirical archival methods. As part of the review process, we have been asked to supplement our existing findings with evidence from surveys and interviews.

The study is designed to look at Crohn's disease over a period time, from before a surgery to 12 months after the surgery has taken place. The role bacteria in the gut plays in Crohn's disease (CD) is not well understood. Which particular microbes contribute to disease remain unknown. In CD, ~70% of patients will end up requiring surgery due to chronic unrelenting complications, and ~50% require additional surgery. We hope to identify key microbes at the time of surgery in stool and tissue and correlate it over time with data collected at timepoints after surgery. We will use this data with clinical information to determine if specific microbes are associated with disease recurrence.

We examine how UK nationals view countries that are subject to hostile behavior by foreign governments.

To compare the effect of different types of nail polish on bacterial counts before and after surgical scrubbing.

The purpose of this study is to learn how muscles change when people breathe air with less oxygen, like being high up in the mountains. We will use a safe ultrasound tool, called shear wave elastography, to take pictures of the muscles and see how they react. This information can help scientists understand how the body responds to high altitudes and may help athletes and travelers stay healthy in these conditions.

This is a research study to better understand people's health behaviors.

The purpose of this study is to understand how health and exposures during the prenatal period, or later in life, influence aging processes among parous women.
