We are looking for patients with kidney disease and healthy controls (no kidney disease) to provide blood samples, fill out surveys, and provide health related information to help investigators learn more about how to better diagnose and treat kidney disease. The information you provide will go into a "library" of data for doctors and researchers across the world to use for research projects. If you are a kidney patient, we are able to use your information to find out if you are eligible for treatment studies/other studies in the future.
Researchers are looking for current and former smokers with or without COPD to enroll in a registry to be contacted for future studies.
Do you have probable Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), Mild Cognitive Impairment with "high likelihood" DLB, or Parkinson's Disease Dementia (PDD)? You may be able to participate in an observational study to track your disease progression and promote future research.
Do you have bladder, kidney, prostate, or another genitourinary cancer diagnosis? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study collecting specimens (e.g., blood, urine, saliva, tissue) during your already scheduled appointments. Collecting these specimens may help researchers develop new ways to detect cancer earlier or to more effectively treat cancer.
A Phase IV, multicenter, randomized, open label trial to evaluate the effectiveness of inclisiran + usual care vs usual care alone as a tool to close care gaps within a pragmatic framework in an inclusive and underrepresented population at high risk for or diagnosed with ASCVD.
A primary objective is to collect data on key clinical outcome endpoints, including changes in percent predicted forced expiratory volume in one second (ppFEV1) that are often used as endpoints in therapeutic trials to establish a repository of control data (e.g., in the absence of investigational drug use) in pwCF who are ineligible and/or not taking CFTR modulators. These data may be used in research or investigative efforts (e.g., for comparison with people exposed to experimental or new therapies in CF).
To widen the availability of obstetric ultrasound through technology
: The proposed study is a three-year mixed methods study of the impact of the U.S. Supreme Court's Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision, and subsequent changes to state reproductive health policies, on mental health and work-related wellbeing of OB/GYNs. We will study how workplace factors, and organizational policies and practices, may lessen the impact of restrictive state policies on OB/GYNs' mental health, work-related wellbeing, and turnover intention. We will undertake a convergent mixed-method design, in which we will conduct a quantitative survey and qualitative interviews simultaneously. We will then conduct key informant interviews of OB/GYN and hospital leaders to determine the best methods and pathways for dissemination of findings.
