Summary

This study aims to look at injury rates experienced during a club travel volleyball season as correlated with self reported scores on the GRIT scale, Brief Resiliency Scale (BRS), and Athlete Burnout Questionnaire (ABQ) in male and female high school age volleyball players. The GRIT asks questions about passion and perseverance to achieve goals.
The BRS asks questions about resiliency after stress.
The ABQ asks questions to understand the determinants and consequences of athlete burnout. Completion of these surveys will take approximately 20 minutes.

Upon receiving and compiling all survey data, appropriate statistical analysis will be performed to assess for trends in the development of injuries and inform best practice on training.

Summary

Children ages 3-4.5 years of age will watch videos designed to teach them made-up verbs. Then, they will be tested on whether they were able to learn the made-up verbs that were presented to them. Findings from this study will help researchers better understand how children learn language and what word-learning situations are easy or difficult for toddlers. This study will be conducted virtually using video conferencing software.

Implementation of the New Pediatric Obesity Clinical Practice Guideline in Rural Families and Clinics: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Date Added
February 12th, 2025
PRO Number
Pro00140879
Researcher
James Roberts

List of Studies


Keywords
Children's Health, Obesity, Pediatrics
Summary

iAmHealthy CPG aims to provide valuable insights into tailored obesity interventions for rural populations through dual interventions: iAmHealthy, a family-based behavioral group program delivered via telehealth, and Healthy Clinic, which enhances clinic processes through provider prompts and skills training. The study employs a stepped wedge design, allowing clinics to transition from a control condition to the intervention in staggered, randomized waves.

The study will evaluate the effectiveness of iAmHealthy compared to a control group, assess the impact of the Healthy Clinic intervention on obesity management at the practice-level, and explore the combined effects of both interventions. Quality improvement concepts and processes will be covered through various topics during monthly virtual learning collaborative meetings once your practice enters the intervention phase. Key outcomes will include changes in children's BMI, physical activity, dietary behaviors, and sleep quality.

Researcher
Mark Miller

List of Studies

Keywords
Bone, Children's Health, Surgery
Summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effective use of Stryker's PEEK Customized Implants in patients receiving craniofacial (head and facial) surgery. Other objectives include using a CT scan to assist surgeons with providing a solution to complex and simple reconstruction challenges and reducing them to a single or two-stage procedure, thereby minimizing the overall surgery time and limiting the number of surgeries. Patient questionnaires and health information will be used during the study to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the implants. We will be enrolling ages 4 - 75 years old.

Summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, vehicle-controlled phase to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diacerein 1% ointment applied topically once daily for 8 weeks for the treatment of adult and pediatric (age ≥ 6 months) patients with generalized EBS. The duration of study participation is anticipated to be approximately ~16 to 20 weeks per patient consisting of a Screening Period of up to 4 weeks, a Treatment Period of 8 weeks and a No Treatment Follow-up Period of 8 weeks. Patients that complete this portion of the study will be eligible to participate in an open-label, 24-week extension phase to evaluate the long-term safety of diacerein 1% ointment for the treatment of generalized EBS.

Summary

The primary purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the SpO2
accuracy of neonatal, infant, and pediatric Philips SpO2 sensors with the Philips
FAST Pulse Oximetry System. Accuracy will be evaluated against the gold
standard, SaO2 obtained from arterial blood samples and assessed by COOximetry.

Additionally, this study will be used to determine if skin pigmentation impacts
SpO2 accuracy and to identify the occurrence of occult hypoxemia, defined as an
SaO2 <88% with an SpO2 ≥92%, with consideration to skin pigmentation.

Summary

This study is being done to learn more about apremilast (AMG 407) in mild to moderate plaque psoriasis in participants (children and adolescents) aged 6 to 17 years. It will see whether it causes any side effects. About 50 people are expected to take part in this study. The duration of the study is approximately 285 days. This includes 3 phases: 35 days of screening phase, 225 days (32 weeks) of treatment phase, and 60 days of observational follow-up phase after the last dose of study drug – this means drug is still being tested to see if it is safe and works.

Summary

Children spend more time than ever using screens — increasingly on portable digital media devices like tablets and smartphones, but our understanding about how these devices impact health is lagging. This project proposes to uncover how patterns of digital media use are formed and maintained and examine how those patterns predict mental health and cardiovascular health risk over time. The novel forms of media measurement used in this project – including passive mobile sampling, ecological momentary assessment and accelerometry – will allow us to uncover the unique and complex ways in which digital media impacts health behaviors.
