Researchers are looking for current and former smokers with or without COPD to enroll in a registry to be contacted for future studies.
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.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about three kidney diseases called nephrotic syndrome: Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), Minimal Change Disease (MCD), and Membranous Nephropathy (MN). By collecting health information and laboratory samples from individuals who have these diseases and by making this information available to researchers, we hope to gain new knowledge about these diseases and to find better treatments for them.
To determine if treatment with mFOLFOX6/bevacizumab plus atezolizumab ) and atezolizumab is more effective than treatment with mFOLFOX6/bevacizumab alone in patients with metastatic colon cancer.
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 lymphoma that has come back, or did not get better with the last treatment you were given? If so, you might able to participate in a study to see if the study team can make modified T cells that are able to fight and kill the lymphoma cells.
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.
The purpose of this research is to conduct a needs assessment to describe implementation processes, barriers, and facilitators of implementing population wide genomic screening programs. We will conduct qualitative interviews with up to 110 implementation team members from 11 sites to better understand how they have implemented population wide genomic screening programs at their organization.
Yoga is becoming exponentially more popular over time, yet not much research has been done on it. Particularly hot yoga and vinyasa yoga have little research, and hot vinyasa has never been studied. Thus, the present study aims to examine the psychological benefits of hot and room temperature vinyasa yoga when practiced with savoring methods, based on quantitative well-being.
The purpose of this study is to learn why childcare staff did or did not take part in a wellness program offered to them.
