The purpose of this study is to capture clinical information on how kidney disease affects the health of women, focusing on menstrual and reproductive health, the transition to menopause (the time when your menstrual periods stop permanently), and menopause itself. We also wish to learn more about how women’s health affects their kidney disease, bone and heart health.

The purpose of this research study is to learn more about how food affects blood sugar levels, and whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help to individualize nutrition education for people with diabetes. Participation in the study would require 3-4 clinic visits over a period of 14 weeks. Participants will also be asked to: meet with a registered dietitian every 2 weeks (virtually), keep food logs, wear a CGM and an activity monitor, answer survey questions, and provide blood samples to measure markers of diabetes control (like hemoglobin A1c).

To determine the prognostic factors for visual outcome for newly diagnosed NF1-OPGs. Hypothesis: Patients (<18 years of age) with tumors involving the optic tracts and/or radiations will demonstrate worse visual outcomes compared to those without optic tract involvement.

This partially randomized phase III trial studies how well active surveillance, bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, or cisplatin work in treating pediatric and adult patients with germ cell tumors. Active surveillance may help doctors to monitor subjects with low risk germ cell tumors after their tumor is removed. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

The purpose of this multicenter study is to compare outcomes between patients who will undergo different types of ACL reconstruction. All patients will have a tendon from their own knee used to reconstruct the ACL. Prior to knee surgery, researchers will randomize (i.e. a coin toss) to determine if ACL reconstruction will be done with patellar or quadriceps tendon and if the lateral extra-articular tenodesis will or will not be added to the ACL surgery. We will follow-up with participants as they undergo treatment and recovery after surgery for 2 years.

PR001A is designed to deliver a normal GBA1 gene copy into the body to increase the activity of GCase, which is low in Type 2 Gaucher Disease (GD2) patients. The new GBA1 gene will remain a child’s body cells for many years and possibly for the rest of their life. A participant will need one surgery during which the study drug will be given and will stay in the hospital for at least 48 hours following the surgery.

The purpose of this study is to look at a different type of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) that may reduce negative side effects while still providing relief from symptoms of major depression.

The purpose of this pilot research study is to test whether a tool called “High-Resolution Manometry” can diagnose laryngeal dystonia (also known as spasmodic dysphonia) and measure how well treatment works. High-Resolution Manometry measures pressures from a small catheter that is passed from your nose into your throat. We believe that pressures in the throat might be different for people with laryngeal dystonia than for people without laryngeal dystonia, or with other types of voice disorders. If we can diagnose laryngeal dystonia shortly after symptoms start, we can get patients the treatment they need sooner.

More than 65% of people with lower extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD) are overweight or obese. Overweight or obese people with PAD have greater functional impairment and faster functional decline than normal weight people with PAD. Walking exercise is first line therapy to improve walking performance in PAD. However, our NHLBI-funded observational longitudinal study of functional decline in PAD showed that overweight and obese PAD participants who combined weight loss with walking exercise had significantly less functional decline than those who walked for exercise but did not lose weight. Therefore, we hypothesize that among people with PAD who are overweight or obese, a weight loss intervention combined with exercise will improve walking ability more than exercise alone. However, the effects of intentional weight loss in overweight or obese people with PAD are unknown and may not be beneficial if weight loss exacerbates PAD-related sarcopenia. Behavior change that achieves sustained weight loss is particularly challenging in older obese people with chronic disease. Therefore, among people with PAD and BMI>28 kg/m2, we will conduct a randomized clinical trial to test the hypothesis that a weight loss intervention combined with walking exercise achieves greater improvement in functional performance than exercise alone at 12-month follow-up.

This is a study about how to recruit sexual and gender diverse people into cancer research studies. You will be asked to participate in a secure Zoom interview; if you do not have access to Zoom an interview may occur over the phone. The interview will take about 60-90 minutes, and we will ask questions about your experience with participating in cancer research studies and your experience during treatment.

This study will look at an investigational study drug, called olorofim, to determine how safe the study drug is, how well it is tolerated and whether it is effective compared to AmBisome® (a standard of care treatment) to treat invasive fungal disease (IFD). We expect that you will be in this research study for up to 18 weeks or just over 4 months.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of megestrol alone, or combined with metformin, on the growth of Endometrial Intraepithelial Neoplasia (EIN). Participants will receive medication directed against EIN prior to the planned procedure (hysterectomy or progestin IUD placement). Women will receive either megestrol acetate pills by mouth twice a day for 3 to 5 weeks, or megestrol acetate and metformin pills twice a day by mouth for 3 to 5 weeks.

This is a long-term registry is designed to collect data on hypophosphatasia (HPP) to better understand the condition and learn more about the disease, how patients feel about living with HPP and effect of HPP on the patients wellbeing and health. The study will look at participant’s medical records and health questionnaires about the health status of patients. This study collects observational data from clinical care and does not involve any treatment for HPP or administration of medication for HPP.

The purpose of this study is to describe current knowledge and opinions about anal cancer screening among men who have sex with men (MSM), as well as their experience receiving guideline-compliant care aimed at anal cancer risk reduction using a large-scale survey disseminated via social media.

The primary objective for this observational study is to collect general and medical data from children, adolescents, and young adults who had pediatric onset rheumatic disease. This data will be used to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of therapeutic agents used to treat these diseases. This information will allow investigators to accurately report and follow changes in current medication use patterns and compare these to proposed standards and current treatment recommendations. The use of a single registry will allow for more analysis of the different therapeutic agents by allowing them to be compared to each other.

This study is being done to look at how pregnancy affects the health of women with cystic fibrosis (CF) and to look at the health of babies born to women with CF. It is expected that most but not all women will be taking the newest CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) modulator medication called TRIKAFTA®. It is not known how this medication will affect the health of mother and infant.

To accomplish this, we plan to obtain cells from the airways and blood of healthy volunteers to perform immune experiments.

The purpose of this study is to understand whether blood levels of adalimumab (brand name: Humira) can be used to predict how well uveitis will respond to adalimumab.

The Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) wants to collect information about individuals with neuromuscular disease to better understand the disease progression and ultimately improve the medical care, quality of life, and survival of those with neuromuscular disease. To collect this information, MDA has created a data registry called the Neuromuscular Observational Research Data Hub (referred to as the “MOVR Data Hub”).

The purpose of the study is to test new biomarkers of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) using MRI scans at 3 tesla (3T). Identifying biomarkers of a disease can lead to a better understanding of the disease as well as improved treatments.

This research is being completed to examine the cells, brain imaging, and speech in individuals with REM Sleep Behavior Disorder who are taking serotonergic medications such as Citalopram, Escitalopram, Fluoxetine, Fluvoxamine, Paroxetine and Sertraline. The purpose of examining these is to try and see if we can predict signs of Dementia with Lewy bodies (a progressive form of dementia with an increase in decline of thinking, reasoning, and other functions). This may benefit others by enabling us to diagnose Dementia with Lewy Bodies sooner rather than later.

This study will be measuring brain activity using EEG and assessing motor skills and speech in children following cancerous brain tumor resection. No direct cancer treatments or objectives are being targeted.

This study is being done to see how safe an investigational drug is and how well it will work to help people with obesity, or overweight with weight-related conditions like hypertension, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, or diabetes. If you qualify to be in the study, you will be given frequent lifestyle and behavioral counseling for the first 12 weeks of the study. The counseling will consist of advice on physical activities and dietary advice on healthy eating. During the treatment period, you will receive either tirzepatide or placebo. Placebo is a solution that looks like the study drug but has no medicine. The chance that you will get the study drug is 2 in 3. This phase will last about 72 weeks.
