The purpose of this study is to understand the strategies NC local governments are using to address diversity, equity, and inclusion.
We want to better understand how and why the dosing of and response to hydroxyurea is different for different patients.
To assess Justice Core clients' experiences with the Justice Core program.
There are 3 primary aims of this study: 1) Observe the status of individuals, of all age, sports, activities, on key patient reported outcomes and measures of neuromuscular control when the reach different return to activity milestones following an ankle sprain as determined by themselves, parents, and/or medical provider. 2) To develop a normative database of scores for the key patient reported outcomes and measures of neuromuscular control for individuals of all ages, sports, and activities to help individuals determine if / how well they have recovered from their ankle sprain. 3) Determine if the key patient reported outcomes and measures of neuromuscular control can predict risk of reinjury when individuals, of all ages, sports, activities, return to sport following an ankle sprain.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a Food is Medicine intervention when started during the first trimester of pregnancy. The eating pattern we are testing in this study is a Mediterranean-style dietary pattern adapted for the southern United States - thus, we call the program "Med-South." All who take part will receive Med-South dietary counseling. In addition, to help participants follow a Med-style dietary pattern, one group of study participants will receive extra virgin olive oil and nuts. The other group will receive extra virgin olive oil, nuts, and frozen meals (medically tailored meals) that align with the Med-South dietary pattern. Participants will be assigned at random (like flipping a coin) to one of these groups.
Looking at the relationship between aspects of the learning environment and resident burnout.
This study is being conduced to assess the feasibility of conducting multi-center prospective studies on surgical excision of suspected OSSN lesions in SSA in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA).
Predictive modeling has recently attracted a lot of attention from organizations trying to leverage AI and big data to improve their work processes such as decision-making. However, real-world problems are rarely well-formulated machine learning problems. Practitioners have to supply a well-defined predictive target to operationalize a predictive model. In such cases, they often resort to using observed variables to approximate the actual construct of interest. For example, people have used high sales numbers as a proxy for a good employee. Proxy label selection is a recurring challenge when predictive ML is applied to real-world problems. The purpose of this interview study is to understand how ML practitioners select proxy labels, evaluate proxy labels, and iterate through the different tasks involved.
TIssue specimens for hidradenitis suppurativa patients will be collected and analyzed to understand the inflammation that occurs in the disease.
Some patients are not able to urinate on their own right after surgery for pelvic organ prolapse so they have to go home with a catheter in their bladders. We want to know if it is safe and effective for them to remove their catheters the day after surgery instead of three days after surgery. If this is effective, they might have lower risk of bladder infection and higher satisfaction after surgery.
