Effects of Ondansetron on Gastrointestinal Sensorimotor Dysfunctions in Diabetes Mellitus and Dyspepsia
Recruiting
Researchers are trying to understand why people with indigestion and diabetes mellitus have gastrointestinal symptoms and in particular to understand whether symptoms are related to increased sensitivity to nutrients in the small intestine. As part of this investigation, a medication called ondansetron will also be studied to determine its effects on gastrointestinal function and associated symptoms.

One-Time DNA Study for Vasculitis
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to identify genes that increase the risk of developing vasculitis, a group of severe diseases that feature inflammation of blood vessels. Results of these studies will provide vasculitis researchers with insight into the causes of these diseases and generate new ideas for diagnostic tests and therapies, and will be of great interest to the larger communities of researchers investigating vasculitis and other autoimmune, inflammatory, and vascular diseases.

Longitudinal Study for Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis (Churg-Strauss)
Recruiting
Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Churg-Strauss) (EGPA) is a rare immune system disorder that causes asthma, an excessive number of eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) in the blood, and the inflammation of blood vessels, or vasculitis. In order to properly treat EGPA, it is critical that the level of disease activity can be determined over the course of the disease. The purpose of this study is to determine new biological markers, or biomarkers, that may be used to assess the s... Read More

Pain Control for Undergoing Costal Cartilage Harvesting
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to find out whether injecting the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug EXPAREL®, a long acting (approximately 96 hours) numbing medication, will reduce pain after rib cartilage removal in comparison to the standard injection of XYLOCAINE®.

Feasibility of Intraoperative Microdialysis During Neurosurgery for Central Nervous System Malignancies
Recruiting
This clinical trial evaluates the use of microdialysis catheters during surgery to collect biomarkers, and studies the feasibility of intraoperative microdialysis during neurosurgery for central nervous system malignancies. A biomarker is a measurable indicator of the severity or presence of disease state. Information collected in this study may help doctors to develop new strategies to better diagnose, monitor, and treat brain tumors.

Evaluation of Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing As A Rescue Strategy for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Non-Response
Recruiting
This study aims to investigate whether the investigators can improve heart function in patients with heart failure who have undergone cardiac resynchronization therapy, but have not had an improvement in their heart function at least one year after the procedure. The investigators will evaluate whether placing a new pacing lead (electrode) in a different part of the heart may increase heart function and decrease heart failure symptoms.

The COCOA-PAD II Trial
Recruiting
Among people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) age 55 and older, the investigators will test the hypothesis that PAD participants randomized to cocoa flavanols will have greater improvement or less decline in six-minute walk distance at six-month follow-up, compared to those randomized to placebo. The study will randomize 190 participants with PAD age 55 and older to one of two groups for six months: cocoa flavanols vs placebo. Our primary outcome is change in six-minute walk distance at six-... Read More
