The purpose of this study is to explore correlations between lower extremity muscle characteristics, functional capacity and biomarkers in older adults in hopes of individualizing patient care.
This is a research study. In this study, you will be asked to complete some questionnaires related to concerns you may have about germs, contamination, and contagions." It will take approximately 30 minutes to complete.
In this study we will look at sleep problems in the home as well as behaviors and differences in the brain (from infancy) associated with sleep problems in school-age. Parents of the participants of our prior study will participate by providing information on their child's sleep habits using a sleep watch, and completing a sleep diary and parent reports.
This study aims to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of Long COVID following SARS-COV-2 infection through survey responses to better understand the condition.
This study aims to better understand how aspirin use is managed for patients after they come into the emergency room for bleeding or trauma. In the long term, to improve patient care as they transition from emergency care to primary care and ensure patients are taking aspirin safely. We think this study is important because it's the first to look at how emergency room visits lead to stopping inappropriate aspirin use in older adults. Our team includes experts from different fields like emergency medicine, geriatrics, heart health, and pharmacology.
This study is helping to plan and evaluate a SNAP in Schools component of a Coordinating SNAP and Nutrition Support project being carried out by partner organizations in North Carolina. The study includes a survey to see if families attending Buncombe County Schools are aware of and using food resources such as Food and Nutrition Services (FNS)/Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and school meals. The responses provided will be used to help plan activities to increase awareness and access to food assistance resources for Buncombe County Schools families.
Infections occurring in individuals with glomerular disease are preventable contributors to excess healthcare utilization, morbidity, and mortality, and are the leading cause of death in children with glomerular disease. Vaccination is a powerful and cost-effective method to attenuate infectious burden, and clinical guidelines recommend that patients with glomerular disease receive 23-valent pneumococcal (PPSV23) vaccine. The main objective of the study is to determine functional PPSV23 immunogenicity in a prospectively collected multicenter cohort of children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome using measurements of anti-pneumococcal and opsonophagocytic antibody titers prior to, and 1, 3 and 12 months following PPSV23 vaccination.
This study will investigate two different systems to help analysts enter operator comments (i.e., annotations) on transcripts of audio conversations.
The purpose of this research study is to assess how inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) influences reproductive and contraceptive concerns for young women with IBD and to explore their preferences regarding contraceptive counseling in the IBD clinic. The results from this study will give providers essential insight into the contraceptive use concerns and preferences of young women with IBD.
The purpose of this study is to develop and validate an Artificial intelligence (AI)-based tissue sample analysis tool that can predict response & progression rates to chemotherapy in intermediate-risk (IR) and high-risk (HR) Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients. This study will use AI-based tissue sample analysis as a possible tool to help predict which patients are at high-risk for cancer recurrence and progression after surgery and chemotherapy treatment. Specimens will be obtained for each patient before treatment and at the 12, 24, & 36 month follow-up to be analyzed using the AI-based tool.
