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
This study explores how college students feel and think about using artificial intelligence (AI) to help with mental health. We want to see if students studying science and technology (STEM) feel differently about AI than students in other areas. We're studying this because AI is being used more and more to solve both work and personal problems. However, using AI in mental health is still new and has not been talked about much.
Hi! I'm a PhD researcher from UNC Chapel Hill studying neighborhood preferences in the Charlotte area. I truly appreciate your time-thank you in advance!
This survey is part of a new program aimed at exploring undergraduate students' interest in clinical research roles and digital badges. We are gathering feedback to understand students' interest in these topics to help shape and develop the training program.
To assess the effectiveness of a cardiac Point-of-Care ultrasound course by pre-course and post-course confidence level and cardiac ultrasound anatomy knowledge
The ASPIRE trial aims to study anticoagulant medications in patients who have had an intracerebral hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain) who also have atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeats). Participants who agree to study participation will receive either Aspirin or Apixaban and followed for 12-36 months to see if they have any other strokes, and follow their general recovery after stroke.
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.
To evaluate the efficacy of ION582 in participants with Angelman syndrome (AS) receiving ION582 vs Placebo as measured through expressive communication as well as measured through functional domains, including overall symptoms of disease severity, cognition, communication, sleep, motor functioning, and daily living skills.
The significance of this project is to go beyond the discourse of culturally responsive practices in early childhood education and attend to the cultural and holistic needs of children and families by providing in-depth knowledge about what it means to be in ACE schools for Black families and their children. Coupled with the fact that much of the extant research on ACE has been on students in the upper grades and there has been little attention to parents' motivation for choosing ACE preschool programs, this proposed project has implications both for addressing inequities in early care and education access and experiences for Black children but also identifying a culturally-rooted approach to meeting the racial, cultural, and developmental needs of Black diasporic children in the U.S. during a critical time of development. This insight from Black families can create, cultivate, and expand such programs and practices across the country.
The Comparison of Analgesic Regimen Effectiveness and Safety in Surgery (CARES) trial is a randomized controlled study comparing the outcomes of managing acute postoperative pain between two therapies: (1) A prescription for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen (Tylenol); OR (2) A prescription for low-dose opioids and acetaminophen (Tylenol) for patients scheduled for one of the following 3 surgeries: (1) gallbladder removal, (2) inguinal hernia repair, and (3) breast lumpectomy. This study is being done to learn which option works the best at relieving pain and has the least amount of side effects.
