Duration of Urinary Catheterization
Recruiting
This study is being conducted to determine the length of time a urinary catheter is needed to drain urine from the bladder after colorectal surgery. Urinary retention is a well known complication after pelvic colorectal surgery, and current practice is to continue urinary catheterization for 3- days following pelvic colorectal surgery in an effort to avoid this complication. However, prolonged urinary catheterization is associated with increased risk of urinary tract infections as well as longer... Read More

COVID-19 Outcome Prediction Algorithm
Recruiting
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2-mediated coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an evolutionarily unprecedented natural experiment that causes major changes to the host immune system. We propose to develop a test that accurately predicts short- and long-term (within one-year) outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients broadly reflecting US demographics who are at increased risk of adverse outcomes from COVID-19 using both clinical and molecular data. We will enroll patients from a hos... Read More

Glycemic Targets for Pregnant Women With GDM and T2DM
Recruiting
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to determine whether glycemic targets that are lower than those currently recommended by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) would improve overall outcomes in pregnant patients with diabetes. Eligible pregnant women with a diagnosis of gestational diabetes or Type 2 diabetes will be randomized into either routine care with glycemic targets as currently recommended by ADA and AC...

Aneurysm Genetic Risk in Patients With QIB Changes
Recruiting
Intracranial aneurysm rupture is a leading cause of hemorrhagic strokes which carry high mortality and disability rates as well as high healthcare costs. Unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) are common in the general population, occurring in 1-2% of individuals. Previous studies have shown that UIA growth and rupture are strongly associated with each other, with growing aneurysms 9-12 times more likely to rupture, and nearly all aneurysms growing prior to rupture. Thanks to advanced medical i... Read More

Study of Dietary Composition in Crohn's Disease
Recruiting
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often have narrowed microbial diversity and altered composition and function of the gut microbiome. We anticipate the anti-inflammatory diet, when compared with the usual diet, to produce favorable changes in these multi-omics profiles. These findings will provide insight into the interactions between diet and host biology, while providing clues on the mechanisms of diet therapy's effect and CD pathogenesis.

Closed-Loop Deep Brain Stimulation for Major Depression
Recruiting
Neurons are specialized types of cells that are responsible for carrying out the functions of the brain. Neurons communicate with electrical signals. In diseases such as major depression this electrical communication can go awry. One way to change brain function is using electrical stimulation to help alter the communication between groups of neurons in the brain. The purpose of this study is to test a personalized approach to brain stimulation as an intervention for depression. The study resea... Read More

KRT-232 Versus Best Available Therapy for the Treatment of Subjects With Myelofibrosis Who Are Relapsed or Refractory to JAK Inhibitor Treatment
Recruiting
This study evaluates KRT-232, a novel oral small molecule inhibitor of MDM2, for the treatment of patients with myelofibrosis (MF) who no longer benefit from treatment with a JAK inhibitor. Inhibition of MDM2 is a novel mechanism of action in MF. This study will be conducted in 2 phases. Phase 2 will determine the KRT-232 recommended dose and dosing schedule; Phase 3 will test KRT-232 vs Best Available Therapy (BAT). Patients in the Phase 3 part of the study will be randomized 2:1 to receive ei... Read More
