Hand-Foot Skin Reaction (HFSR) is a common adverse event induced by Vascular Endothelial Growth Receptor Inhibitor (VEGFRi) treatment in cancer patients. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of OQL011 compared to vehicle ointment in treating patients with moderate to severe VEGFRi-associated HFSR. This study will also identify an optimal dosage for Phase III study and explore the pharmacokinetics profile of OQL011 in HFSR patients.

Official Title The influence of receiving real-time visual feedback on breathing during treadmill running to exhaustion

Purpose

The purpose of this research is to assess if receiving real-time visual feedback on your breathing pattern during a run has any influence on time to exhaustion.

The feedback will be provided through animations on a screen placed in front of the treadmill that open and close as the chest and abdomen expand and contract. Research has shown that you want the chest and abdomen to expand and contract at the same time to achieve the most efficient breathing possible, meaning you will want the animations to open and close at the same time.

The ultimate objective is to see if this feedback allowed the participant to last longer until reaching their exhaustion point.

Could this study be right for you?

• Healthy adults who run 5 to 20 miles per week
• Have NOT been injured while running in the past six months
• Have NOT been medically diagnosed with breathing deficiencies
• must be age 18 or older

Those who are interested in participating will be directed to complete a survey, found at go.osu.edu/RunningAndBreathing, to ensure that they meet the previously mentioned criteria.

Official Title Relationship Dynamics in Families of Children with ADHD and Their Opposite-Sex Siblings

Purpose

This study is being done to better understand relationship dynamics between children with ADHD, their siblings, and their parents. Our goal is to better understand how differences in family dynamics affect children with ADHD. Participants will be asked to fill out several self-report questionnaires and engage in a family conflict task. During several tasks, participants will have various physiological measures (e.g., heart rate, breathing rate, etc.) taken using electrodes placed on their body. Results of this study will be used to develop other studies and to inform future treatment and prevention programs.
