Novel mHealth Physical Activity Intervention for Youth With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Recruiting
The goal of this longitudinal cohort study is to learn about a mHealth intervention in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does the intervention increase the amount of text messages between the mHealth software and participants? * Do the text messages from the Nudge software increase moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) in participants? * Does the MVPA encouraged by the Nudge software improve the HbA1c levels of participants? Participants will: * Re... Read More

Using Ultrasound Elastography to Predict Development of Hepatic Sinusoidal Obstruction Syndrome
Recruiting
To perform an receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, define a threshold and quantify the sensitivity and specificity of US SWE for risk stratification of patients into three categories as defined by the European Bone Marrow Transplant (EBMT) adult and pediatric criteria: no sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), mild to moderate SOS, and severe to very severe SOS. Secondarily, the investigators would also like to quantify the temporal relationship between US SWE changes and SOS diagno... Read More

Crizotinib in Treating Patients With Stage IB-IIIA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer That Has Been Removed by Surgery and ALK Fusion Mutations (An ALCHEMIST Treatment Trial)
Recruiting
This randomized phase III trial studies how well crizotinib works in treating patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been removed by surgery and has a mutation in a protein called anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Mutations, or changes, in ALK can make it very active and important for tumor cell growth and progression. Crizotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the ALK protein from working. Crizotinib may be an effective treatment for patients with non-sma... Read More
