The purpose of this study is to determine if it is possible to identify biomarkers that tell us what type of response a person with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) will have to "antibody-drug conjugates" (ADCs).
To discover how different forms of radiation affect the sleep, mood, and social function of adults with brain cancer. Doctors have suspected that these patients may be getting worse sleep, but no one has studied it. Since sleep is important in recovery and overall body function, understanding how radiation changes it will lead to a greater clinical understanding of the treatment.
Purpose: To evaluate the implementation of the UNC Family Medicine behavioral health curriculum for 42 Family Medicine residents annually (98 over the course of 5 years); Participants: UNC Family Medicine residents Procedures (methods): We will analyze results of an annual survey that is administered to residents over the course of their residency 4 times: 1 at the start of their initial residency year (PGY1), 2 follow ups at the beginning of their 2nd and 3rd years of residency (PGY2 & PGY3), and 1 final at the end of their 3rd year of residency (PGY3). In addition, we will follow up with residents as able annually for 3 years after residency, 1 time per year using a post-graduation survey.
Describe the effects of stakeholder feedback in the development and implementation of a shoulder injury reduction program.
Cancer information is widely shared on social media, however not all information is true. We aim to explore how social media designs, including in platform prompts and messages, can encourage individuals in cancer care networks to think about the quality and accuracy of cancer information shared online. This innovative work will establish the feasibility, infrastructure, and protocols to test social media designs (prompts, messages) among adults in cancer care networks.
Prior research emphasizes that opportunities are a "foundational element in entrepreneurship," including their "identification evaluation, and implementation." (Foo, et al. 2020; Shane & Venkataraman, 2000). Entrepreneurial opportunities are those "opportunities to bring into existence new goods, services, raw materials, and organizing methods that allow outputs to be sold at more than their cost of production." (Shane & Venkataraman, 2000). The opportunity recognition and exploitation process is critical for venture growth and success, as it is the means by which entrepreneurs differentiate themselves from competitors and earn a sustainable profit. Yet "[m]uch is left unanswered on the opportunity recognition process in emerging regions." (Foo, et al. 2020). While researchers have developed theoretical propositions as to how entrepreneurs in developing countries may identify and exploit opportunities, we have little empirical knowledge about this critical entrepreneurial process in the developing country context, leading to calls for further research. (Dencker, et al. 2021; Foo,
The purpose of this presentation and subsequent surveys is to inform professionals in the area of familial trafficking, what the key indicators are, and what practices should be implemented to help eliminate this issue.
The purpose of this research study is to see if home-based blood pressure monitoring when combined with team-based care led by your doctor's office can improve blood pressure levels in comparison to usual patterns of care. The long-term hope is to reduce risks for bad outcomes such as stroke by improving blood pressure control.
