In parallel with the growth of American Thrombosis and Hemostasis Network's (ATHN) clinical studies, the number of new therapies for all congenital and acquired hematologic conditions, not just those for bleeding and clotting disorders, is increasing significantly. Some of the recently FDA-approved therapies for congenital and acquired hematologic conditions have yet to demonstrate long-term safety and effectiveness beyond the pivotal trials that led to their approval. In addition, results from well-controlled, pivotal studies often cannot be replicated once a therapy has been approved for general use.(1,2,3,4) In 2019 alone, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued approvals for twenty-four new therapies for congenital and acquired hematologic conditions.(5) In addition, almost 10,000 new studies for hematologic diseases are currently registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov.(6) With this increase in potential new therapies on the horizon, it is imperative that clinicians and clinical researchers in the field of non-neoplastic hematology have a uniform, secure, unbiased, and enduring method to collect long-term safety and efficacy data. ATHN Transcends is a cohort study to determine the safety, effectiveness, and practice of therapies used in the treatment of participants with congenital or acquired non-neoplastic blood disorders and connective tissue disorders with bleeding tendency. The study consists of 7 cohorts with additional study "arms" and "modules" branching off from the cohorts. The overarching objective of this longitudinal, observational study is to characterize the safety, effectiveness and practice of treatments for all people with congenital and acquired hematologic disorders in the US. As emphasized in a recently published review, accurate, uniform and quality national data collection is critical in clinical research, particularly for longitudinal cohort studies covering a lifetime of biologic risk.(7) Read Less

The Mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I) Registry is an ongoing, observational database that tracks the outcomes of patients with MPS I. The data collected by the MPS I Registry will provide information to better characterize the natural history and progression of MPS I as well as the clinical responses of patients receiving enzyme replacement therapy, such as Aldurazyme (Recombinant Human Alpha-L-Iduronidase), or other treatment modalities. The objectives of the Registry are: * To evaluate the long-term effectiveness and safety of Aldurazyme® (laronidase) * To characterize and describe the MPS I population as a whole, including the variability, progression, and natural history of MPS I * To help the MPS I medical community with the development of recommendations for monitoring patients and reports on patient outcomes to optimize patient care Read Less

The goal of this treatment study is to determine if doing lateral pharyngoplasty with tonsillectomy is better for children than doing tonsillectomy alone. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do children experience less pain after surgery when lateral pharyngoplasty is performed with tonsillectomy compared to tonsillectomy alone? * Do children eat/drink better when lateral pharyngoplasty is performed with tonsillectomy compared to tonsillectomy alone? * Is there a lower risk of bleeding after tonsillectomy when lateral pharyngoplasty is performed? Researchers will compare children undergoing tonsillectomy and lateral pharyngoplasty with children undergoing tonsillectomy alone to see if the participants experience less pain, better oral intake, and less bleeding complications after surgery. Parents of participants will be asked to record pain scores and pain medications given, approximate amounts of daily oral intake, and any complications after surgery. Read Less

Cognitive impairment is a common non-motor symptom among individuals living with Parkinson's disease (PD). Traditionally, cognitive impairment is thought to reflect disruptions in dopaminergic frontal-striatal systems. However, the current conceptualization does not thoroughly explain the heterogeneous profiles or trajectories of cognitive impairment in PD; suggesting that alternative mechanisms may contribute to cognitive impairments. Identification of alternative mechanisms of cognitive impairment may lead to better prognostic prediction and yield novel treatment targets. The gut is implicated as a site of early pathology in PD. Early signs of PD pathology (alpha synuclein and Lewy body aggregates) are detected in the gastrointestinal tract years before motor symptoms manifest. Recent studies provide evidence that individuals with PD have an altered gut-bacterial composition (termed dysbiosis) relative to controls. To date, dysbiosis is linked to more severe motor symptoms and certain non-motor symptoms (constipation, REM behavioral sleep disorder) in PD, but the relationship between dysbiosis and cognitive impairment remains unknown. Animal studies support the hypothesis that microbiota composition play a direct role in cognitive impairment. Germ free (GF) mice demonstrate deficits in cognition. Specifically, findings suggest that a disrupted gut- microbial environment in conjunction with elevated stress hormones may create an imbalance of pro- inflammatory vs. anti-inflammatory cytokines that induces potentially reversible cognitive impairments. In human studies among individuals with PD, neuroinflammatory markers are associated with cognitive impairment. However, the relationship between dysbiosis, neural inflammation and cognitive functioning remains unknown. This model has incredible clinical implications, as microbiota dysbiosis may represent a reversible risk factor for cognitive impairment. The proposed study will examine the hypothesis that dysbiosis contributes to increased neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment. Microbiota composition/function, neuroinflammatory markers and cognitive functioning will be examined in 100 participants with PD. Analyses of microbiota composition/function will examine abundance of amplicon sequence variants (ASVs; 16s), bacterial species/strains (metagenomics), microbial genes, and functional pathways. The investigators hypothesize that microbiota composition/function will be associated with inflammatory markers (e.g. interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, c-reactive protein) and cognitive impairment.

This trial investigates whether high-quality training for consumer-directed home health workers impacts health outcomes for care consumers and employment outcomes for care workers. The investigators are conducting this study in the context of the In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program, a consumer-directed, Medicaid-funded home care program in California serving elderly and disabled Medicaid recipients. The investigators will partner with the Center for Caregiver Advancement (CCA), a training provider based in California, to conduct a randomized evaluation of the impact of training for IHSS workers on labor and health care outcomes. The evaluation will enroll IHSS workers in San Bernardino County, where CCA will be expanding its program. Participants will be randomized to either a group that receives CCA's training or a control group that does not receive training. Participants randomized to the training group will complete a 30 hour online course that teaches fundamental caregiving skills. Training includes personal care, infection control, nutrition and body mechanics, medication adherence, and home safety. Researchers will compare outcomes between IHSS providers in the two groups and between IHSS consumers who receive care from the IHSS providers in the two groups to see if training impacts health, health care, and labor market outcomes.

This is a Pre-IDE, prospective, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, vehicle- controlled study to evaluate safety and effectiveness of Nail Genesis DLSO Product for the treatment of DLSO compared with vehicle in infected great toenails in a total of 338 males and non-pregnant, non-lactating, females between 18 and 65 years of age (inclusive). Subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either Nail Genesis DLSO Product or vehicle. Subject eligibility will be determined during a Screening assessment. Subjects will complete a 4week washout period after discontinuation of a topical product or a 12-month washout period after discontinuation of an oral product or light-based therapy prior to randomization. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive Nail Genesis DLSO Product or vehicle, respectively. During the 52-week trial, study medication will be administered once daily to the target toenail for 48 weeks. A subject will be considered to have completed the study when he or she has completed the study assessments at Week 52. The 52-week visit is for follow-up safety assessments. Read Less
