The purpose of this study is to examine how resting brain activity is related to sleep behaviors and reactions to drinking alcohol.
The purpose of this study is to see how safe and tolerable SLGN is, and how well it reduces the amount of hepatitis B virus in people with CHB and HIV. Results from this study could help evaluate whether SLGN can lower the amount of hepatitis B virus in blood and prevent illness in people with CHB and HIV, without the need for life-long therapy. SLGN has not been tested in people with HIV
The purpose of this study is to collect data related to patient reported outcomes (pain, function, quality of life, toxicity) with the goal of managing approaches to radiation therapy and clinical care during follow up.
Purpose:This is a two-arm preliminary efficacy RCT in 120 participants testing a 6-week home-based walking and progressive resistance exercise program (EXCAP©®) vs. standard care on CIPN, interoception, and inflammation. Participants: This study will enroll 120 participants receiving neurotoxic chemotherapy or have completed neurotoxic chemotherapy in the past nine months (i.e., taxane-, platinum-, vinca alkaloid-, epothilone-, or proteasome inhibitor-based chemotherapy). Procedures (methods): Participants will complete questionnaires, clinical assessments, and a blood draw at two time points: pre-intervention (week 0, T1) and post-intervention (approximately week 6, T2).
This study aims to evaluate the usability of the symptom monitoring tool and understand the barriers to completing symptom assessments among patients with chest surgery. Using a symptom monitoring tool, patients will directly report their symptoms to their care team by completing electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) assessments.

The purpose of this study is to understand the behaviors and attitudes related to online grocery shopping among parents with children age 1-5 years old. The aim is to develop online food retail nudges to discourage fruit drink purchases and promote healthier substitutes. The ultimate goal is to decrease consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages in childhood as these are associated with increased risk of diet-related chronic diseases, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes.
Our team developed a calculator to help oncologists better estimate prognosis in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Using this information, our team developed a prognostic calculator to predict risk of death within 30 days for patients with MBC. For this information to impact care, it will have to be used in clinical practice. In order to increase the likelihood of successful adoption of the calculator into clinical practice, we will study its implementation and evaluate its impact. In this study, we will seek the input of doctors, nurses, and advance practice providers who care for patients with MBC to better understand the factors that encourage and dissuade discussion of prognosis and use of such a prognostic tool.
The purpose of this project is to identify and target barriers faced by rural endometrial cancer patients in order to develop a patient navigation intervention. Rural residents with endometrial cancer, the most prevalent gynecologic cancer in the US, have higher odds of mortality than urban endometrial cancer patients. As the number of new endometrial cancer cases is expected to increase 50% by 2030, this urban-rural disparity is expected to continue widening.
