Examining the Role of Pain in the Link Between Early Childhood Adversity and Psychopathology
Recruiting
The goal of this study is to investigate the role of physical pain in the link between childhood adversity and later psychopathology. Children who are participating in a larger longitudinal study will be asked to submerge their hand in cold water and hold it in the cold water as long as possible. Participants will do this twice, once alone and once holding the hand of their parent, to examine the role of parental support in pain development. The study will examine self-report of pain and salivar... Read More

Effect of Drain Care on Infection Rate and Quality of Life in Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction.
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether showering with surgical drain tubes in place after first stage breast reconstruction causes increased risk of infection. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there an increased risk of infection/complications with showering 48 hours after drain tubes are in place * Does showering after 48 hours with drain tubes in place affect quality of life.

Treatment Of Atrial Fibrillation In Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure
Recruiting
Heart failure (HF) with preserved left ventricular function (pEF) is difficult clinical syndrome to treat effectively with few evidence based therapies. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is now an important co-morbidity being observed in 43% of patients with HFpEF. Rhythm control has not been studied in this population. Catheter ablation and antiarrhythmic drugs are rhythm control therapies that have been used for treatment of AF without HF or HF with reduced systolic function but have not been widely ap...

HF2 Registry - Hemodynamic Frontiers in Heart Failure Registry
Recruiting
The purpose of the HF2 (Hemodynamic Frontiers in Heart Failure) registry is to collect relevant patient-level demographic, clinical, laboratory, and hemodynamic data from patients implanted with pulmonary artery pressure sensor at participating centers to advance scientific knowledge about ambulatory hemodynamics monitoring and HF (Heart Failure) therapies. The data collected will be used for retrospective studies, quality improvement, identifying research cohorts, and member-initiated research.

Alzheimer"s Imaging Biomarkers in Obesity
Recruiting
High body fat at midlife, as evidenced by overweight or obese body mass index (BMI), is increasingly understood as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. However, the underlying processes and mechanisms that may underlie this risk remains unknown. With this project, the Investigator proposes to create a new cohort of cognitively normal 120 midlife individuals, age 40-60 years. The investigator and research staff will characterize the participant's overweight or obese status using metabolic tests... Read More

Testing Less Intensive Radiation With Chemotherapy to Treat Low-risk Patients With HPV-positive Oropharyngeal Cancer
Recruiting
This trial will explore giving standard dose chemotherapy and radiation therapy to sites of disease including all lymph nodes involved with HPV-positive oropharyngeal cancer, but administer lower doses of radiation therapy to the lymph nodes that are not known to be involved with cancer. By doing so, it is hypothesized that there will be equally good long term loco-regional and distant disease control but will reduced long term treatment side effects and improved quality of life in persons livin...
