Depression is common among cancer survivors but current screening approaches are not adequate. To help develop better strategies to screen for depression among cancer survivors, we will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial with cancer survivors to evaluate whether a text message based approach to depression screening is feasible, acceptable, and potentially more effective than existing standard of care approaches to depression screening among cancer survivors.

This study is for patients scheduled for a bronchoscopy, a procedure that allows doctors to examine lungs and airways for evaluation of suspicious lung nodules. Those who give consent to participate in this study will be randomized into one of two lung biopsy sampling method groups based on the Rapid On Site Evaluation of the initial sample obtained by the doctor performing the bronchoscopy as part of the standard of care procedure for the patient. the potential groups the subject will be randomized into are: Cryoprobe or transbronchial biopsy needle. These devices are used with a bronchoscope to obtain lung tissue biopsy samples and are being evaluated to determine which is better for confirming a diagnosis. All procedures will be done via standard of care and screening will be accomplished via medical chart review. 7 days following the procedure, a member of the study team will check the subjects medical chart to assess whether any adverse events have occurred.
The purpose of this study is to determine the best strategy to help individuals improve blood pressure control after a stroke. The study will test two different interventions (an intervention is an action taken to prevent or treat disease and/or improve health).
1) Intensive Clinic Management (ICM), which consists of clinic visits, home blood pressure monitoring, text message health reminder from CariumĀ®, a care management application, and health education.
2) Intensive Tailored Telehealth Management (ITTM), which consists of telehealth (video) visits, health coaching with lifestyle coaching company INTERVENT International, LLC, and remote blood pressure monitoring captured in CariumĀ®.
This study is seeking to assess two known risk factors of drowning, swimming ability and water safety knowledge, in parents of children and adolescents presenting to the pediatric emergency department using questionnaires.
By collecting this data, we hope to highlight factors that contribute to disparities in drowning rates in minority racial and ethnic groups and to aid local and federal governments in developing programs that effectively combat the number one cause of unintentional injury-associated death in children ages 1-4 years. This will also provide data that may help guide pediatricians in effective anticipatory guidance for families regarding water safety. All in the effort to minimize disparities in medicine and provide more equitable care to the patients that we see.
ICUconnect is a innovative mobile app-based primary palliative care intervention. This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial to test the intervention's efficacy in a population diverse in race, ethnicity, and geography that reflects the real-world experience of patients and family members.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of ruxolitinib cream compared to a placebo (vehicle) cream in treating vitiligo in children aged 2 to 12 years. The vehicle cream looks identical to the ruxolitinib cream but contains no active medication. By comparing these two treatments, researchers hope to determine whether ruxolitinib is more effective than the placebo in improving facial and body vitiligo symptoms. This study could provide important insights into new treatment options for young children affected by this condition.
This study is for subjects diagnosed with follicular lymphoma. The purpose of this study is to assess if treatment with Mosunetuzumab can improve long term remission in patients with low tumor burden follicular lymphoma compared to rituximab. The treatment period for the Rituximab arm is approximately 40 weeks. The treatment period for the Mosunetuzumab arm is approximately 24 weeks. However the subject may remain in the study for up to 10 years for the follow-up period.
The purpose of this study is to understand differences in responses to those beginning treatment with ublituximab (Briumvi) as prescribed for Multiple Sclerosis by their treating provider. The study consists of three visits where some questions are asked about experience with Multiple Sclerosis and blood samples are drawn for genetic research and immune cell counts. While taking part in this study, some of the possible risks include those related to having blood drawn, risk of loss of confidentiality and risks related to genetic research.
