NCT03384693
Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a common complication in the stem cell transplant population. Certain populations within the hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) population are at a higher risk than others. Defibrotide is an endothelial stabilizing agent which may prevent the endothelial damage that triggers TMA in HSCT patients. The feasibility, safety, and efficacy of defibrotide prophylaxis in a pediatric transplant population is unknown. Twenty five patients age 0 to 30 years receiving autologous or allogeneic hematopoeitic stem cell transplant who meet TMA high risk criteria will be enrolled. Patients will receive Defibrotide for 28-35 days starting before conditioning, and will be closely monitored for any adverse events up through 6 months post-transplant. The feasibility of administering defibrotide will be evaluated as well as incidence of TMA.
NCT03344081
Meditation skills, or paying attention to internal mental states, are thought to improve people's health. This study is developing a new brain measure of meditation skills, called the EMBODY Task, using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The investigators are testing whether pattern recognition methods can be applied to fMRI data to identify mental states during meditation, including attention to the body and to thoughts. This task is being developed in meditation practitioners and non-meditators. The goal is to understand what people are paying attention to during meditation using brain data. The investigators hypothesize that pattern recognition technology will be able to identify different mental states that occur during meditation.
