This study will evaluate if there is a relationship between bone health, fertility, and metabolism to help develop future treatments for SCI. Both men with and without SCI will be participating in this trial to better understand how bone health, fertility, and metabolism are impacted by an injury to the spinal cord.

This phase II trial studies how well combination chemotherapy works in treating patients (≤ 30 years old) with newly diagnosed stage II-IV diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumors (DAWT) or favorable histology Wilms tumors (FHWT) that have come back (relapsed).This trial may help doctors find out what effects, good and/or bad, regimen UH-3 (vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, carboplatin, etoposide, and irinotecan) has on patients with newly diagnosed DAWT and standard risk relapsed FHWT (those treated with only 2 drugs for the initial WT)and regimen ICE/Cyclo/Topo (ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, and topotecan) has on patients with high and very high risk relapsed FHWT (those treated with 3 or more drugs for the initial WT).

The purpose of the current study is to test the effects of two forms of cognitive training: visual perception training or visual cognitive control training in individuals with early psychosis.

This research is being done to help us better understand the different DNA repair disorders. We will collect data and samples that we will use to develop new therapies and medicine to help treat the disease. We expect that participants will be in this research study for 3 years. Visits will occur every six months and alternate between in-person and remote. Remote visits should be expected to last 1-2 hours, and in-person visits should be expected to last 3-4 hours.

In the first phase of the study, participants will be asked to complete two sets of appointments six months apart. During both sets of appointments, participants will be asked to complete interviews and questionnaires about their life experiences and mental health, and they will have an EEG and fMRI while completing computerized tasks. The second phase of the study is optional. In this phase, participants will test one of two forms of computerized cognitive training, or brain games. They will be asked to complete 10 hours of training over a 3-6 week period. After the training period is over, they will have two sets of follow up visits, one right after the training period and one five months later. At these appointments, participants will complete the same activities done in the first phase of this study, including the interviews, questionnaires, and imaging (fMRI and EEG) combined with computerized tasks. We are recruiting two groups of participants for this study. One group will include individuals who experience hallucinations, delusions, paranoia, or a psychosis disorder (i.e., schizophrenia), and the other group will be individuals who do not have a diagnosis or family history of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or autism spectrum disorder.

We are trying to learn more about how the brain controls movement and how this affects function after stroke. We expect differences in the side of brain damage to result in distinct movements of each arm. We will collect information with standard clinical exams and movements during tasks completed on the Kinereach virtual reality system. We will compare results between people who have and have not had a stroke.

The purpose of this study is to measure levels of blood and brain chemicals related to oxidative stress and inflammation in healthy volunteers and individuals with Type 1 Gaucher disease (GD1) to see if these levels are altered by GD1. We will also examine if there is a change in these blood and brain chemicals after participants begin taking oral N-acetylcysteine (NAC), which is available both as a prescription medication and a natural product that has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Freezing of gait is a common problem in people with Parkinson's disease. Episodes of freezing can be overcome when a sensory cue is provided. This study will further develop and study the efficacy of a wireless shoe insole that can monitor walking and provide a cue (acoustic or vibrotactile) when a freezing event is detected. The experiment is designed to further test the ability of the device and algorithm to reliably detect freezing and release the episode with an external cue. This study has the potential to develop a tool that can help reduce the incidence and severity of freezing events in people with Parkinson's disease.

This is a registry study. The Cardiac Sarcoidosis Consortium (CSC) is an international, multicenter partnership among physicians and allied professionals at major medical centers with the unifying purpose to learn more about cardiac sarcoidosis through collaborative research.

The objective of the study is to define quality of life in patients with upper airway stenosis after bypassing the stenosis with either tracheotomy or t-tube stenting. Participants complete surveys over 2 years to collect quality of life information.

Risk for suicidal behavior in young people may include particular types of brain functions. The goal of this research is to learn more about the biology of the brain as it relates to suicidal thoughts and behaviors.

Severe aortic valve stenosis can include stiffening and hardening of the heart valve leaflets (tissue that opens and closes in the heart valve) so that the valve cannot work properly. If left untreated, excessive strain put on the heart muscle will eventually cause it to fail or lead to other serious complications. This study is a research project to assess a way of replacing aortic valves without the need for open-heart surgery and without surgically opening the heart to remove the narrowed valve. The device under study is called the ACURATE Transfemoral Aortic Valve System. The study will compare the safety and effectiveness of the ACURATE Valve, along with other commercially available TAVR devices.

The purpose of this study is to examine a new, experimental treatment for adolescents at risk for suicide attempts called neurofeedback training. In neurofeedback training, you are trying to control your brain function on purpose. In this study, your child will see their brain activity (displayed like a thermometer). He/she will recall positive memories to try to change the levels of their brain activity shown on the visual thermometer inside a scanner.

This is a study of adults with unexplained chronic cough between 18-80 years old. This study is trying to determine whether a noninvasive vibrotactile stimulation device can help reduce cough symptoms.

This research is being done to determine if a procedure done by the anesthesiologist, known as a paravertebral block, can decrease the chance of developing atrial fibrillation after surgery. The block consists of using a numbing medication delivered over time through two small tubes to specific spots on the upper back. There is evidence that this helps reduce the chance of atrial fibrillation after similar procedures and the potential complications of that condition.

This study is being done to improve outcomes after kidney donation and kidney transplantation. We will test kidney donors and kidney transplant recipients for apolipoprotein L1 gene (called APOL1) variants (or forms of the gene) and to see how these may affect them. Genes control the traits inherited from your family such as your eye color or blood type. Only a blood sample (and possibly urine) will be collected. Information routinely collected as part of surgery will also be used in the study. There will not be any changes to usual medical care.

This study aims to determine the role of menopause and exogenous hormone use in regulating antiretroviral disposition in the female genital tract.

The purpose of this investigation is to identify the potentially crucial role of anticipatory reward mechanisms maintaining bulimic behavior (i.e., binge eating and purging) in bulimia nervosa (BN).

Few medical treatments are available to improve walking ability in patients with PAD. This research study will help determine the effects of cocoa flavanols on walking ability in people with blockages in their leg arteries. Cocoa flavanols are a type of plant nutrient found in cocoa beans. These supplements are available over-the-counter at drugstores.

Balance and walking problems in patients with Parkinson’s Disease do not respond well to the typical medication or surgical treatments. This research study uses five small wearable devices that attach to clothing and can measure the body’s location while performing walking tests, balance tests, and normal daily activities. By comparing patients with Parkinson’s Disease to people of similar age without Parkinson’s Disease, we hope to learn important differences relevant to the walking and balance problems in Parkinson’s Disease

The purpose of the study is to see how aerobic exercise and cognitive training alone or together affect cognition, brain structure and function, and physical fitness over the course of 18 months.

Almost 300,000 Americans with a spinal cord injury or disorder (SCI/D) suffer from reduced or complete loss of sensory and motor function, which can compromise functional independence and quality of life. The purpose of this study is to find better treatment options for improving sensation and movement after SCI/D.

The goal of this study is to learn more about the effects of menopause on women's blood pressure and heart health. We are looking for women between the ages of 35 and 70 years to participate in the study. Participants may be pre- or postmenopausal; we are specifically interested in evaluating the influence of premature (< age 40 years) and early (< age 46 years) menopause.

This study is being conducted to determine when is the best time to do surgery is and when to start rehabilitation after surgery for the treatment of a multiple ligament knee injury. The study will randomize (i.e. a coin toss) when you have surgery and when you begin rehabilitation (early or delayed surgery and early or delayed rehabilitation). The type of surgery is decided between you and your surgeon. Rehabilitation is tailored to the type of surgery you have. You will fill out some questionnaires and have your knee examined at your normal postsurgery appointments with your surgeon.

This research is being performed to examine how the spleen moves during breathing in various body positions and breathing conditions. Physical measurements of the participant's body will be recorded (weight, height, and body dimensions) and then noninvasive recordings of the spleen and breathing patterns will be recorded. The spleen motion will be measured using standard abdominal ultrasound imaging, and breathing will be measured with accelerometers (small devices about the size of a quarter that measure the movement of the chest during breathing).

This study includes healthy adults between 18-70 years old who are either non-smokers or cigarette smokers interested in quitting. The purpose of this study is to learn more about how people respond to stress and to taking one dose of a widely and safely used drug called naltrexone as well as to learn about how these responses relate to whether or not someone smokes, smoking cessation, and smoking relapse.

The purpose of this research is to better understand balance and walking in patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus. Balance and walking problems in patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus do not respond well to the typical medication treatments. This research study uses small wearable devices that attach to your clothing and can measure your body’s location while performing walking and balance tests.

The effect of enzyme replacement therapy on how well your kidneys are responding to enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is not clear from blood and urine tests alone, but may be more clear in comparisons of kidney biopsies performed before and some time after ERT has been initiated, and this is what we are focusing our study efforts on. The purpose of this study is to obtain your permission to allow us to study the kidney biopsy tissues (collected for medical reasons) after the regular routine studies have been completed. Through our special research measurements and additional study, we hope to be able to see and measure very specific changes in the kidney tissues from Fabry patients taking ERT. We also hope that through these studies of what happens within the kidney before and after starting ERT, we are able to reveal valuable information about the importance of factors like your age that you started ERT, the amount or dosage of ERT, and any differences seen between males and females.

This research study is for participants who have an inherited neuromuscular disorder or neurogenetic disorder, or family members are unaffected by such disorders.

This study includes the development and evaluation of a person-centered employment preparation program for families of transition-aged youth with autism.
