Neurometabolic Profile of Individuals With Primary Mitochondrial Disease
Recruiting
Primary Mitochondrial Disease (PMD) is a genetic neurometabolic disorder, leading to central nervous system degeneration and increased risk of early mortality. There is a strong link between the pathophysiology of mitochondrial disease and biomarkers related to the biochemistry of redox imbalance, involving the levels of glutathione. Investigators will use Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy to non-invasively measure glutathione and other chemicals in the brain to identify redox imbalanc... Read More

Phase 1/2: CD45RA Depleted Stem Cell Addback to Prevent Viral or Fungal Infections Post TCRab/CD19 Depleted HSCT
Recruiting
The major morbidities of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) using donors that are not human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched siblings are graft vs host disease (GVHD) and life- threatening infections. T cell receptor alpha beta (TCRαβ) T lymphocyte depletion and CD19+ B lymphocyte depletion of alternative donor hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) grafts is effective in preventing GVHD, but immune reconstitution may be delayed, increasing the risk of infections. The central hypothesis... Read More

Evaluating Novel Healthcare Approaches to Nurturing and Caring for Hospitalized Elders
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the Hospital Elder Life Program (HELP) with a family-augmented version of HELP (FAM-HELP), that includes family members and care partners, for the prevention of delirium in older patients during hospital admission. The main objectives of the trial are the following: 1. To compare the effectiveness of FAM-HELP and HELP in reducing both the incidence of delirium and its severity. 2. To compare the effectiveness of FAM-HELP and HELP in improving patien... Read More

Autonomic Control of the Circulation and VDR
Recruiting
The study objective of this project is to examine the mechanisms of the venous distension reflex (VDR) in humans. We hypothesize that COX blockade with ketorolac tromethamine, an intravenous NSAID, will attenuate the muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) response to limb venous distension. To gain further insight into whether the COX byproducts directly stimulate chemically-sensitive afferents, or enable venodilation and indirectly evoke afferent stimulation, we will measure vein size using 3...
