Do you sit too much at work or home? There is strong evidence for an association between sitting and cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and stroke. In this study, we want to identify strategies to break up sitting for long periods of time. Compensation will be provided.
In the study we are looking at how a bout of walking performed prior to prolonged sitting impacts arterial stiffness (non-invasive cardiovascular measure). This is important as increased arterial stiffness from prolonged sitting increases the risk for cardiovascular disease.
In this study, we want to learn more about mental health stigma and resource utilization. We also want to learn how stigma affects attitdues towards mental health and mental health resources in collegiate athletes.
Individuals with a history of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and have had an ACL reconstruction (ACLR) are at a greater risk for developing osteoarthritis. The greater risk for developing osteoarthritis is likely caused by too little force or physical activity applied to the knee during weightbearing tasks such as walking. To reduce this decrease in forces during walking following an ACLR, we must first develop effective treatments that can train a person to walk in a way that reduces their risk of developing osteoarthritis. The purpose of this research study is to determine the feasibility and the initial effects of a 6-week training program designed to improve walking mechanics of individuals with an ACL reconstruction.
The purpose of this study to is assess changes in knee joint health before and after 8 weeks of physical activity participation in individuals with a history of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) 6 months to 5 years ago.
In this study, we want to learn more about mental health stigma and mental health history. We also would like to learn about how these factors affect a person's willingness to participate in therapy.
There are 3 different non-invasive devices that are used to test how stiff your arteries are. We want to learn if these devices give us similar measurements. This will allow us to compare data across different devices, which will assist with future research.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how people feel about staying safe during sports and concussion safety. This study will focus on participants who identify with underrepresented racial and ethnic backgrounds.
To understand the current health and well-being of athletes during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Have you recently had an anterior cruciate ligament re-injury and will be undergoing revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery? If so, you may be able to participate in a study assessing the associations between walking movement and physical activity with knee joint health. Compensation provided.
