Transitions Clinic Network: Post Incarceration Addiction Treatment, Healthcare, & Social Supports

TCN PATHS is a Justice Community Opioid Innovations Network (JCOIN) study in collaboration with UNC-CH, Yale, The University of Puerto Rico, The Hennepin Research Institute, University of Rochester, University of Connecticut, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and the University of Miami, aims to improve health outcomes for justice involved persons with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). Opioid overdose is the leading cause of death, and a common cause of morbidity, after release from jail. Recently, because medications for OUD effectively reduced relapse, recidivism and overdose, several jails have started to treat OUD with medications. However, OUD treatment discontinuation upon release is a persistent problem. The long-term goal of the study is to reduce morbidity and mortality from OUD among justice-involved individuals. The overall objective is to assess whether the Transitions Clinic Network (TCN), which provides enhanced primary care for people released from incarceration in 30 community health centers in the United States,

Attitudes Toward Trauma-Informed Care Among Specialized Instructional Support Personnel

This research uses the Attitudes Related to Trauma-Informed Care (ARTIC) Scale to gauge the readiness of school mental health practitioners (i.e., school psychologists, social workers, and counselors) to shift toward trauma-sensitive systems. Despite the reliance on school mental health practitioners in this movement, little research exists on their preparedness for and training in trauma-informed approaches. In hope of better situating schools to act as buffers against the adverse effects of childhood trauma, this research seeks to inform graduate and professional-level training on disciplinary practice, causes of student behavior, and the protective nature of secure adult relationships.

Mechanism of sickle cell disease-specific venous thromboembolism

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effects of Sickle Cell Disease on the state of coagulation and effects on generation of certain coagulation proteins. People with sickle cell disease tend to have a higher rate of thrombosis which is not fully understood. Through this study, we hope to gain a better understanding of the effects of sickle cell disease on turning on coagulation that ultimately leads to a thrombotic event.

Autism, Mental Health and Perimenopause Study

While the identification of autism in females has steadily increased, there remains a critical gap in our understanding of female specific issues for autistic females , such as menstruation, pregnancy, motherhood, and menopause. Menopause marks a key reproductive transition period for females. The purpose of this study is to characterize mental health challenges and experiences during the menopause via a three-pronged, mixed methods study, employing a large scale online survey followed by in-depth interviews and daily diaries across a complete menstrual cycle.

AALL1821: A Study to Compare Blinatumomab Alone to Blinatumomab With Nivolumab in Patients Diagnosed With First Relapse B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL)

This phase II trial studies the effect of nivolumab in combination with blinatumomab compared to blinatumomab alone in treating patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) that has come back (relapsed). Down syndrome patients with relapsed B-ALL are included in this study. Blinatumomab is an antibody, which is a protein that identifies and targets specific molecules in the body. Blinatumomab searches for and attaches itself to the cancer cell. Once attached, an immune response occurs which may kill the cancer cell. Nivolumab is a medicine that may boost a patient's immune system. Giving nivolumab in combination with blinatumomab may cause the cancer to stop growing for a period of time, and for some patients, it may lessen the symptoms, such as pain, that are caused by the cancer.

Endometriosis Sample Collection Study

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the lining of the uterus, called the endometrium, by taking samples of endometrial tissue. Samples are taken by a common procedure called an endometrial biopsy.
