Brain tumor radiation sleep study

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.

Defining Texture Characteristics in Breast Tissue (The DETECT study)

The purpose of the DETECT study is to learn more about how some breast tissue features show up on a mammogram and what these features can tell us about the potential for a breast cancer diagnosis. Your participation will help us understand how the appearance of those breast tissue features is affected by hormone levels. Our objective is to collect urine samples that we will use to measure hormone levels. We will examine how hormone levels are related to breast tissue features measured from a breast cancer screening mammogram.

The assessment is designed to gather information on memory, nutritional status, mental health, and level social support. It is also designed to understand how well you carry out your day to day activities and to briefly describe what other medical conditions you may have. This assessment will help your health care team determine your "functional age" (the age you function at) as compared to how many years old you are. We will also ask you to complete questionnaires that ask questions about your personal health history, such as exercise and smoking,

The Carolina Head and Neck Cancer Study

The goal of the study is to determine why some men and women get certain types of head and neck (mouth or throat) cancer, and others do not. If we can identify underlying causes of head and neck cancer, we can determine ways to prevent it from occurring. Collection and analysis of medical records and tumor biology may also lead to more effective treatments and lower the death rate from this disease.
