NCT04188041
This study explores primary care team members' knowledge, attitudinal, and skill gaps related to latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) testing and treatment. The gaps identified will inform the design of a survey and telementoring educational program (tuberculosis (TB) infection ECHO course). The EMR data query will further explore the reach of the expansion for community healthcare outcomes (ECHO) model. The hypothesis for this study is that the TB infection ECHO course will be feasible, will have a significant impact on primary care provider participants' learning and performance related to LTBI testing and treatment in their primary care practices, and will increase the number of LTBI tests and treatment prescribed in primary care.
NCT01952782
The investigators are seeking healthy volunteers and volunteers with reproductive disorders for the study of the role of dynorphin in the reproductive system. Dynorphin is a naturally occurring opioid hormone that is blocked by naloxone. We hypothesize that naloxone, by blocking dynorphin, will stimulate production of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and kisspeptin, two other naturally occurring reproductive hormones.
NCT05527899
Pneumonia is a major public health problem for the elderly and is one of the leading causes of hospitalization and death for this population, particularly for elderly nursing home residents. This planning grants seeks to establish a safe and effective dose of zinc supplementation with the goal to conduct a larger randomized clinical trial to study the effect of zinc supplementation in nursing home elderly with low serum zinc levels on the risk, antibiotic use, and duration of sick days with pneumonia. This project has significant potential to positively impact the health and quality of life in the elderly and to reduce the economic costs associated with their care.
