Neoadjuvant Weekly Paclitaxel and Biomarkers of Therapy Response
Recruiting
The hypothesis of this study is that paclitaxel levels increase chromosomal instability (CIN) in tumors and this is lethal to tumors that have pre-existing CIN. Treatment will be administered on an outpatient basis. Paclitaxel will be initiated as standard infusions on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 21-day cycle. Participants will continue with paclitaxel for cycles 2-4 prior to surgery.

Conditioning SCID Infants Diagnosed Early
Recruiting
The investigators want to study if lower doses of chemotherapy will help babies with SCID to achieve good immunity with less short and long-term risks of complications after transplantation. This trial identifies babies with types of immune deficiencies that are most likely to succeed with this approach and offers them transplant early in life before they get severe infections or later if their infections are under control. It includes only patients receiving unrelated or mismatched related dono... Read More

Development of 4D Flow MRI for Risk Stratification of Variceal Bleeding in Cirrhosis
Recruiting
The goal of this research is to validate novel non-invasive Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers to detect Gastroesophageal varices (GEV) in patients with cirrhosis, including fractional flow change in the portal vein and elevated azygos flow. End-stage liver disease (cirrhosis) is characterized by advanced fibrosis, liver failure, and portal hypertension. There are many causes of cirrhosis, including viral hepatitis, alcohol abuse, and perhaps most importantly, non-alcoholic fatty liver... Read More

Fluorescence-based Detection of Inflammation and Necrosis to Inform Surgical Decision-making and Enhance Outcomes
Recruiting
This study investigates fluorescence image-guided surgery to allow precise identification of necrotic tissue both preoperatively and intraoperatively in burn patients. Furthermore, it uses a multi-model approach to elucidate the localization of ICG in inflammation and necrosis to determine how this novel use of a well-known fluorescence marker can be optimized to aid in surgical decision making. This proposal will provide the necessary data to support the design of a larger clinical trial to stu... Read More

Enrollment Barriers, Procedural Denials, and Loss of Medicaid Coverage
Recruiting
The goal of this study is to try new outreach methods to improve access to Medicaid for those who lost Medicaid for procedural reasons. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How does a live phone call from a Navigator impact Medicaid enrollment among people who lost Medicaid coverage for procedural reasons? 2. What is the effectiveness of outreach using a live call rather than a pre-recorded call?

COmparison of Clarus and Optos Ultrawide Field Imaging Systems for Inherited Retinal Disease
Recruiting
The goal of this research study is to compare two ultrawide field cameras to the gold standard imaging system to evaluate the back of the eye. The main question it aims to answer is the same results and information can be acquired from all of the cameras for evaluating and monitoring inherited retinal diseases (IRDs). Participants will: * undergo pupillary dilation * have photographs taken of the inside of the eyes using three different cameras

Implementation of a Primary Hospital Provider (PHP) Team
Recruiting
The goal of this pragmatic clinical trial is to learn if it is possible to implement a Primary Hospital Provider (PHP) team that aims to improve continuity of care for patients who are frequently hospitalized. The main question it aims to answer is: Are patients assigned to the PHP team more likely to be assigned to this team during a follow up hospitalization? Researchers will compare this to similar patients assigned to receive usual care. Some participants from both the PHP team and usual car... Read More

A Trial to Improve Family Clinical Note Access and Outcomes for Hospitalized Children
Recruiting
This study will test if giving parents access to their child's medical notes on a bedside tablet: * helps them get more involved in their care * helps identify safety concerns Parents of hospitalized children will be randomly assigned to either use the Bedside Notes tool or follow usual care. To see if this approach improves care and safety, researchers will measure: * note access * parent-reported safety concerns * overall experiences

Impact of Bromocriptine on Clinical Outcomes for Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
Recruiting
The study will enroll 200 women newly diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy within 5 months postpartum in a randomized placebo controlled trial of bromocriptine therapy to evaluate its impact on myocardial recovery and clinical outcomes. Given that bromocriptine prevents breastfeeding, an additional 50 women with peripartum cardiomyopathy excluded from the trial due to a desire to continue breastfeeding but meeting all other entry criteria will be followed in an observational cohort.

Combined Electric and Acoustic Hearing (EAS) in Children and Adults
Recruiting
Cochlear implants are surgically implanted devices which restore the ability to hear to the hearing impaired. Improvements in surgery and electrodes have results in an increased number of adults and children who have residual hearing and can benefit from electric and acoustic hearing in the same ear. This is called Electric Acoustic Stimulation (EAS). Many studies have shown that adult EAS users show significant benefits for speech understanding in noise and spatial hearing tasks as compared to... Read More
