The purpose of this study is to understand the planning and implementation process of the Summer EBT program in Rhode Island and North Carolina.
This project is studying the effect of pediatric care coordination on the behavioral health of children and parents.
To address gaps in puberty education by developing a bilingual needs assessment and providing accessible, age-appropriate educational materials and in-person sessions for underserved 8-12-year-old patients at the UNC Pediatric Resident Clinic.
We are studying how eye pressure changes right after an Avastin injection, a common treatment for eye conditions. We want to see if there are differences in eye pressure between people with and without glaucoma, and between those with and without a tube placed in the eye to help with pressure. This will help doctors better understand how to care for patients after these injections.
Systematic reviews (SRs) of healthcare interventions should identify patient safety concerns; however, many SRs are designed to assess benefits, and preliminary evidence suggests that conclusions about harms in SRs might not be trustworthy. Using >19,000 SRs of drugs for which we have full texts (including >4,000 overlapping reviews), and using innovative methods for analysis (e.g., natural language processing), we will examine whether information about safety in SRs is consistent, whether SRs address safety concerns identified using real-world evidence, and whether SRs are consistent with safety information on drug labels. Based on best evidence, including findings from this study, we will develop contemporary guidance for synthesizing and reporting safety information in SRs.
This study is to test a prototype for a jupyter widget that can be used to compare two sets of health records data to help detect selection bias.
This Incubation Project is motivated by ethical questions around policies and practices concerning research engagement with U.S. Indigenous Peoples whose tribes are unrecognized by the federal government. The pilot study includes activities aimed at (1) elucidating their perspectives on environmental research ethics, (2) evaluating the breadth and depth of current environmental research engagements within their communities, and (3) assessing their perspectives and gathering feedback on emerging research policies.
The purpose of this study is to examine people's intentions to perform different health behaviors, and what individual factors predict these intentions.
Study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the InnAVasc Arteriovenous Graft (IG) for hemodialysis (HD) access in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
We are conducting a research study to explore the limitations of working memory load on initial attention capture and the precise timing of subsequent hold. In our foundational framework, we are incorporating a diverse range of stimuli to comprehensively capture attention and evaluate hold across two different attention paradigms.
