We want to test adults with sickle cell disease, using both the conventional in-person Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) and, within 2-4 months, the abbreviated 'MOCA-blind', which can be given remotely. In this way we can begin to evaluate whether these tests are sensitive to similar degrees of impairment when given remotely compared with in-person in people with sickle cell disease (SCD).
The purpose of this study is to examine the level of knowledge and integration of teachers of Spanish variations in Heritage Speaker (HS) instruction in middle school.
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the quality of life for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The purpose of this research study is to explore how people respond to and judge various scenarios needing emotional support. This will require writing responses to vignettes and answering questions about it. This study may touch on sensitive issues like grief and minor sexual assault. This study may not provide fully accurate information at time. The debriefing form will include complete information of the study. Your part in this study will take approximately 10 minutes.
We would like to receive advice on the design of a research trial from people who have used the service we will be studying before.
Train a machine learning algorithm to identify normal eyes compared to eyes with trichiasis (an infectious eye disease that causes lashes to turn inwards)
Our project will provide 5 rural pharmacies with tailored, evidence-based technical assistance and support to overcome buprenorphine dispensing barriers. Our goal is to build the capacity of rural community pharmacies to improve access to MOUD and reduce overdose deaths in their communities.
The project is developed to understand the clinical impact of a novel wearable sensor on pressure ulcer monitoring among lower limb amputation. This project includes three major testing procedures: 1) using able-body participants to demonstrate the effectiveness of the sensing system 2) using transtibial amputees without pressure ulcers to evaluate the performance of the sensing system in the challenging environment inside the socket 3) using transtibial amputees with diagnosed pressure ulcer to step up a clinical standard to use this sensing system.
We are doing a diagnostic evaluation of patients with Primary Immunodeficiencies (PID) and Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) to see if we can determine clinic differences between the two groups. This information will help us to define future studies.
Findings from this project will identify urgently needed strategies for improving school-based mental health supports for adolescents with suicidal thoughts and behaviors to prevent suicide during resurgences of COVID-19 that force school closures.
