Individuals with a history of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and have had an ACL reconstruction (ACLR) are at a greater risk for developing osteoarthritis. The greater risk for developing osteoarthritis is likely caused by too little force or physical activity applied to the knee during weightbearing tasks such as walking. To reduce this decrease in forces during walking following an ACLR, we must first develop effective treatments that can train a person to walk in a way that reduces their risk of developing osteoarthritis. The purpose of this research study is to determine the feasibility and the initial effects of a 6-week training program designed to improve walking mechanics of individuals with an ACL reconstruction.

The objective of the study is to establish a prospective disease registry for chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO)/chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) in order to investigate the natural history of the disease and the responses of patients to different clinical managements over 5 years.

The purpose of this research study is to better understand the cause and course of clinical high-risk symptoms and to monitor participants for the possible development of mental illnesses such as psychosis. Clinical high-risk symptoms can include feeling low in mood, feeling like something odd is going on, feeling suspicious, or seeing or hearing things that the person knows aren't there. Some people might worry that their thoughts are being heard or might be having more difficulty than usual coping with work, school, or relationships. For some, these early symptoms may become more severe over time. For others, the symptoms may stay the same, decrease, or go away entirely. Improving our knowledge about these symptoms and risk factors and the way that they change over time may help researchers and clinicians predict possible outcomes for individual patients and develop treatment plans that are best suited to individual patients.
