To compare the effect of different types of nail polish on bacterial counts before and after surgical scrubbing.

Findings from this project will identify urgently needed strategies for improving school-based mental health supports for adolescents with suicidal thoughts and behaviors to prevent suicide during resurgences of COVID-19 that force school closures.

The purpose of our study is to increase our understanding of how hearing affects balance performance in older adults. This will help us know whether older adults with balance concerns should be screened for hearing loss and whether use of hearing aids may be important for improving balance and preventing falls in older adults with hearing loss.

This is a research study to learn about the mental health of people living with HIV in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Participants will answer one survey that will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.

To collect research samples from CF patients already having a clinically indicated colonoscopy. We're collecting a few additional samples on top of what is collected for clinical purposes to give to researchers for future projects. This will increase your time of procedure around 5 minutes.

To determine the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence software as an aid for radiographic lesion detection

The study is designed to look at Crohn's disease over a period time, from before a surgery to 12 months after the surgery has taken place. The role bacteria in the gut plays in Crohn's disease (CD) is not well understood. Which particular microbes contribute to disease remain unknown. In CD, ~70% of patients will end up requiring surgery due to chronic unrelenting complications, and ~50% require additional surgery. We hope to identify key microbes at the time of surgery in stool and tissue and correlate it over time with data collected at timepoints after surgery. We will use this data with clinical information to determine if specific microbes are associated with disease recurrence.

The purpose of this Heart Failure Research Registry is to collect relevant patient-level demographic, clinical, laboratory and hemodynamic data from CardioMEMS patients to advance scientific knowledge about pulmonary hemodynamics and heart failure therapies.

The purpose of this evaluation will be to assess how the NC-DSS competencies and learning objectives for the Child Welfare in North Carolina -Pre-service Course are integrated into the curriculum of NC Social Work programs participating in the NC-Child Welfare Education Collaborative (NC-CWEC) program. NC-CWEC is a statewide consortium of social work programs that are incorporating NC-DSS competencies and learning objectives that address child welfare practice into the curriculum of their social work programs.

The purpose of this study is to understand how your gut plays a role in how well CAR T cell therapy works. Your gut is home to bacteria, which we call the gut microbiome. The gut microbiome can send signals to your immune cells, which may impact how well and how long CAR T cell therapy will last. We can find out what type of bacteria are in your gut microbiome by studying your stool. We can understand more about the signals sent to the immune system by studying your blood. We will ask for stool and blood at the same time points throughout your treatment. We will study the identities and function of the bacteria and immune cells to understand more about how these signals work during CAR T cell treatment.
