This study is a registry for patients who have sickle cell disease (SCD), including pregnant women. A registry is a database of patient health and demographic information that is used to understand how a disease affects different people based on, for example, their other medical conditions, their age, or their treatment regimen.
This study is being done to collect information about how SCD affects you and to try to understand what characteristics of your disease may predict whether you have complications from your disease in the future.
The purpose of this research is to assess a group-based telehealth parenting program for child ages 2-6 years old with a neurodevelopmental diagnosis and behavior problems. Families will complete an online intake assessment, 6 group-based telehealth PCIT sessions, and an online post intervention assessment. Families will be compensated for their time.
Each day in the United States, approximately 41 children experience in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A lack of situation awareness was cited as the most common contributing factor to serious safety events within children's hospitals. Situation awareness is the ability to monitor what is happening, integrate information to develop a comprehensive picture, and extrapolate forward to project the future. The primary objective of this study is to implement unit based interventions (SAMURAI PICU bundle) to reduce the incidence of IHCA in pediatric intensive care units using quality improvement methodology.
This study is for patient that have been diagnosed with High Risk Neuroblastoma. The investigational drug in this study is naxitamab. The purpose of this study is to test the safety of adding an Anti-GD2 Immunotherapy agent (naxitamab) to your standard therapy during the induction phase of care. Read the sections on risks and benefits carefully and be sure you understand them. This study will also look at the effectiveness of this treatment.
Adolescence is a time of development in the brain and microbiome, including the microbiome present in the mouth called the oral microbiome. Alcohol use often begins and escalates during adolescence, which can cause changes to the oral microbiome leading to changes in the brain. The alcohol specific changes to the oral microbiome and the brain may make adolescents more vulnerable to a lifelong struggle with alcohol use disorder. This study will collect (1) saliva to assess the composition of the oral microbiome and (2) brain measurements using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) across adolescents who may or may not use alcohol. Findings from this study will help form a more thorough understanding of the biological consequences of adolescent alcohol use, with the long-term goal of informing novel prevention and intervention efforts.
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and solid organ transplantation (SOT) recipients are at high risk for respiratory viral infection (RVI). This study aims to establish a comprehensive RVI diagnostic and disease progression predictive model in children undergoing HCT and SOT. Findings will result in the first ever evidence-based pediatric guidelines.
This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with early-stage (Stage I or II) Hodgkin lymphoma (HL)(cHL). The main purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab (Bv-NIVO) against standard therapy for people with HL to find out which is better. Participants can expect to be in the study for up to 54 months.
A randomized clinical trial study that compares 2 different timepoints to clamp the cord at birth. The study involves babies with heart disease born between 37 0/7- 41 6/7 weeks of pregnancy. Doctors will clamp the umbilical cord around 30 seconds (between 1-<60 seconds) after birth vs. around 120 seconds (between 60-<180 seconds) after birth. Doctors consider both treatment groups to be "usual care." A goal of this study is to find out which umbilical cord clamping timepoint is best for babies with heart disease.
This will be a 26-week, prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled safety and efficacy study of udenafil 87.5 mg tablets versus placebo (both taken twice daily in adolescent subjects who have had the Fontan procedure. The primary efficacy endpoint will be change from baseline at 26 weeks in peak minute oxygen consumption [VO2] (mL/kg/min).
This study is testing citicoline as a possible medication to treat alcohol use disorder. Youth (ages 16-22) will be randomly assigned to receive either citicoline (2000mg per day) and or a placebo for four weeks.
All participants will receive brief counseling from a trained clinician and will undergo a brain scan and cognitive testing at the beginning and end of the treatment.
Participants must provide informed consent and youth under 18 must have parental consent to participate. The full study will last approximately one month.
Compensation is available to those who qualify.
