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
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.
The purpose of this study is to discover the practice pattern of surgeons who have been board-certified in complex general surgical oncology. The study will help determine the best approach for re-certification examinations.
We are surveying American adults to understand their attitudes toward salient political issues. Findings will help support efforts to decrease polarization and increase public support for key issues, such as climate change mitigation.
The purpose of this study is to better understand the attitudes and perceptions student teachers have of their fieldwork placement. Moreover, in understanding their attitudes and perceptions, we can better understand the relationship between attitudes and perceptions with programmatic outcomes (graduation, licensure, etc.).
Hunter Syndrome or Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is a rare genetic disorder caused by decreased levels of a specific enzyme, iduronate-2-sulfatase. Lack of this enzyme causes buildup of large sugar molecules called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). The build up of GAGs causes significant damage to the body and brain. Idursulfase-IT, an enzyme replacement therapy, was developed for the treatment of patients with Hunter Syndrome with cognitive impairment to help with the central nervous system manifestations of the disease. The purpose of this post-trial access program is so that patients with Hunter syndrome who previously received monthly administration of idursulfase-IT through participation in an earlier clinical research study can continue to receive it.
Describe the effects of stakeholder feedback in the development and implementation of a shoulder injury reduction program.
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.
