In this study, we wan to learn how stress in your life may affect how your genes work. We want to learn how these changes can increase risk for heart disease.
Up to 30% of individuals who injure their anterior cruciate ligaments (ACL) suffer another ACL injury following reconstruction surgery. Improving function of the hamstrings muscles may reduce the risk of a second ACL injury. This study will determine if a novel rehabilitation tool (local muscle vibration) improves muscle function and landing characteristics (biomechanics) that are linked to ACL injury risk. Compensation is provided.
The purpose of this research program is to generate data regarding the ways that the cells and fluids found within the nose, mouth, and airways of children from diverse backgrounds function and interact. This program will generate single-cell level data and "maps" of these cells at the tissue level using a variety of genetic and imaging techniques. These data will then be made available to the larger scientific community who will be able to use the data to better understand the normal functioning of these cells and tissues in healthy children and then further investigate cellular and tissue function in various diseases
In this study, we want to learn more about female athletes' knowledge of nutritional concerns.
The purpose of this study is to understand reporting behaviors of concussion symptoms among young adult athletes who have participated in organized sport when concussion occurs both inside and outside of sport. Focusing on reporting behaviors of non-SRCs will contribute to a more holistic view of concussion reporting behaviors which may enhance concussion reporting interventions to improve reporting patterns and athlete safety in the future.
Have you had ACL reconstruction? You may be able to participate in a research study examining how brain function might change after surgery. Compensation provided.
Patients hospitalized with anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) antibody disease, an autoimmune disease, are treated with a number of medications to stop the inflammation created by the disease. In this study, we want to see if adding the drug imlidifase to those usual treatments will stop the inflammation faster and helps reduce damage to the kidneys.
Do you wonder about your mobility as you age? You may be eligible to participate in a research study investigating age effects on foot-ankle mechanical power interactions with the goal to enhance foot and ankle function in aging and mobility. Compensation provided.
The purpose of this study is to look at how outdoor air pollution exposure relates to hormone levels and reproductive health.
This project is designed to get valuable feedback from physical therapists and patient groups for a video game product for knee rehabilitation. It is a sub study of an overall project that includes a clinical trial on the effect of the implementation of the video game. KneeBright is an EMG driven video game platform for rehabilitation for knee osteoarthritis. This custom program was developed to complement lower extremity strengthening.
