DeBakey Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Study
Recruiting
While advancements in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) have improved image quality, it is unclear how these improvements are connected to the clinical evaluation of individuals with cardiovascular disease. The aim of this large prospective registry revolves around 4 key principles: 1) utilize CMR to gain additional pathophysiologic insights into cardiovascular disease, 2) understand how CMR compares to alternative cardiovascular diagnostic modalities, 3) determine how CMR affects clinical manage...

Establishment of a Parathyroid Tissue Bank
Recruiting
To develop a tissue bank library for patients with parathyroid disease who have undergone surgery and/or biopsy, and/or who may undergo surgical intervention at M. D. Anderson Cancer Center or outside centers, and/or all patients seen through the Parathyroid Center at participating sites, whether or not the patients undergo treatment for their disease. The tissue bank will contain both normal parathyroid tissue and diseased tissue, and will provide a resource for the ongoing study of parathyroid... Read More

Sugammadex vs. Placebo to Prevent Residual Neuromuscular Block in the Post---Anesthesia Care Unit
Recruiting
The Primary objective of this study is to determine whether patients who receive sugammadex immediately after tracheal extubation will exhibit a decrease in the incidence of postoperative residual paralysis and an associated decrease in the incidence of postoperative respiratory depression (which can precede critical respiratory events, CRE). The Secondary objectives are to: a) determine whether patients receiving sugammadex will have a normal TOF ratio (>0.90) indicative of full neuromuscular... Read More

Metabolomics and Genetic Diagnosing Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors in MEN1 Patients
Recruiting
Objectives: The aim of the present study is to assess the significance of metabolomics and genetics in diagnosing and survival evaluation for pNET in the periodic follow-up of MEN1 patients. Aim 1: To evaluate the relationship of serum global metabolic profiles with subsequent development of aggressive PNET and evaluate patients survival in a nested case-control study of MEN1 patients who have developed aggressive PNETs (cases) and MEN1 patients who have developed non-aggressive PNETs (control...

Prospective Study of Colon Serrated Polyps
Recruiting
With this study, the investigators plan to review the clinical, epidemiology, pathology, and endoscopic features of colon serrated lesions as well as outcome of endoscopic resection of these lesions. The findings will help us define the natural history of colon serrated lesions, develop techniques for endoscopic management of patients with serrated lesions, and identity areas for improvement. The data will be used for continuing quality improvement and presenting our outcomes at academic meeting... Read More

Sleeve Gastrectomy Outcomes With Different Stapling Devices
Recruiting
Sleeve gastrectomy is now the most commonly performed bariatric surgery. While many studies have evaluated factors that may minimize post-operative hemorrhage and staple-line leak, the investigators are unaware of any studies that compare outcomes between devices from the two main stapler manufacturers used in this surgery, Covidien and Ethicon. The purpose of this study is to compare intraoperative characteristics, such as time to create sleeve, intraoperative bleeding, and time needed to load... Read More
