We are studying symptoms and experiences of patients with undiagnosed bleeding disorders with surveys. Patients will also be able to provide a blood sample for research
The purpose of this study is to see if an investigational drug called pazopanib can improve nosebleeds and anemia in patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
This study seeks to promote clinical trial engagement in African Americans with pancreatic cancer. The first group of people will be interviewed by phone to discuss clinical trials. This information will be used to create a new mobile health app/website. In the second group, half of the participants will receive the new app and half will not. They will both be asked to complete questionnaires after their upcoming doctor visits.
PharmAlliance is a global partnership between the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy, Monash University Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, and UCL School of Pharmacy. Numerous achievements such as publications, grants, student exchanges, and teaching innovations have resulted from this international alliance. Existing research, however, does not look into specific characteristics of successful international collaborations. In this observational study, collaborators in PharmAlliance will be surveyed and interviewed in order to determine characteristics of successful international teams in pharmacy and more broadly.
The purpose of the TEACH Study is to collect data on whether mood symptoms and estrogen levels change during the first month after hysterectomy for uterine fibroids and/or abnormal uterine bleeding. These results may help us understand whether mood symptoms and hormone levels change during this time, which will help us better support women who undergo this surgery in the future. During this study, we will collect mood questionnaires and hormone levels (sometimes in blood and sometimes in saliva) weekly through the first month after surgery.
The purpose of this study is to try and understand what speech and language pathologists (SLPs), or speech therapists, do in conversations with children who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) to communicate.
The purpose of this research study is to better understand how to adapt a multi-level leadership coaching implementation strategy called Leadership and Organizational Change for Implementation (LOCI). This will help us understand how to better integrate mental health treatments into medical care. We will interview those involved in health care and district health decisions to understand the context of mental health care in Malawi and how we can adapt LOCI to best serve Malawian health leaders.
The utility of syndromic management for STIs is predicated on up-to-date information on the etiologies of the syndromes being treated. Periodic assessments of N. gonorrhoeae among women presenting to care with LAP and AVD+ are important for treatment guidelines. Additionally, assessing pharyngeal N. gonorrhoeae among women with genital infections, which has never been done in this population, is critical to ensure adequate treatment and prevent AMR.
Pregnancy complications are increasing in the United States, and this is worse for Black patients, who are 3-4 times more likely to die from pregnancy than White patients. Pregnancy complications and deaths cause large physical, social, and financial burdens for patients and their families. Our study aims to decrease pregnancy complications for all patients, but especially for Black patients, by decreasing institutional racism and bias in healthcare and improving community-based social support during pregnancy.
This study plans to learn more about two treatment approaches for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in patients who have cystic fibrosis (CF) and the outcomes. The two treatment approaches this study intends to learn about are endoscopic sinus surgery (a surgical treatment used to clean out infection from your nose and sinuses) and continued medical treatment without surgery.
