This study aims to assess the image quality of the second-generation CBCTs-multi-source CBCT (ms-CBCT), dual-energy CBCT (de-CBCT), and a combination of both (de-ms-CBCT)-to the conventional, first generation CBCT, by objective and subjective measures.
Now called the Pediatric Heart Transplant Society (PHTS), the Pediatric Heart Transplant Study Registry was established in 1993 by a group of physicians who wanted to improve the lives of children who needed a heart transplant. The primary purposes of the organization was to establish and maintain a prospective, event driven database for heart transplantation, to encourage and stimulate basic and clinical research in the field of pediatric heart transplantation, and to promote new therapeutic strategies. The ultimate goal was to improve the lives of pediatric heart transplant recipients.
This study is looking at how work and family related responsibilities affect ability to teach for mothers who are also physicians.
This study examines how characteristics of women's relationships with family members are related to their health during pregnancy. Results will suggest how families can become more supportive of women's health during pregnancy.
Validation of assessment tool for regional anesthesia skills
To find out if the addition of 2 blocks of inotuzumab ozogamicin to the standard chemotherapy regimen will improve outcomes in children and young adults with High-Risk (HR) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL).
This research trial studies kidney tumors in younger patients. Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue, blood, and urine from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and identify biomarkers related to cancer.
The primary purpose of this work is to engage a broad group of stakeholders to implement a patient-centered approach to the de-adoption of self-monitored blood glucose among non-insulin-treated patients with Type two Diabetes Mellitus. We will evaluate the effectiveness of Rethink the Strip finalize and package it for nationwide dissemination.
The purpose of this study is to determine which new magnetic resonance sequences provide better, faster and more useful information. A sequence is a distinct method of obtaining magnetic resonance (MR) images. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exam is made up of many different imaging sequences. These new sequences will be implemented on either on a 3 Tesla (3T) MR system, a 7 Tesla (7T) MR system (single- or multi- transmit), or both. Since the signal-to-noise ratio for MR images is highly dependent on the magnetic field strength, the anticipated signal-to-noise will be 7T greater than 3T and 3T greater than 1.5T systems. The 3T MR system is FDA approved whereas the 7T system is not FDA approved, but is built to the same standards as other FDA approved scanners. In addition, the FDA has approved magnetic field strength up to 8T for human imaging. Participants will be told ahead
We are exploring the relationship between participation in the FIT Program with health outcomes, recidivism, and healthcare utilization for people who are coming out of incarceration and who have chronic illnesses.
