The purpose of this research study is to see if using a footstool can make it easier to have bowel movements in patients who suffer from chronic constipation. The participants will be given a free footstool to use. They will be asked to keep a record of their bowel symptoms and answer some surveys about their symptoms on a phone or computer. 

You will be in the study for approximately 12 weeks. This includes 2 weeks before you start using the footstool, followed by 8 weeks where you will be using the footstool and up to 2 weeks to complete your initial and final surveys. 

The purpose of this study is to learn about sleep and blood sugar (glucose) levels in people living with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Another purpose of the study is to see how people with AD and their caregivers/family members feel about wearing small devices to measure sleep and blood sugar.

The duration of this study is 10 days. 

The purpose of this study is to better understand experiences, attitudes, and practices of women gun owners in New Jersey and Ohio to ultimately improve understanding of factors that may influence suicide prevention strategies. 

The purpose of this study is to lower the rate of type 2 diabetes in rural Appalachia youth due to obesity and/or being overweight. Our long-term goal is to improve the health of underserved, high-risk youth.

This study will test the effectiveness of the Mentored Planning to be Active + Family on physical activity outcomes and health outcomes among rural Appalachian middle school aged youth suffering from either overweight or obesity.

We have local high school-aged teen mentors work closely with middle school youth to increase social support, self-efficacy, and self-regulation skills to sustain physical activity and improve health before the children enter high school.

The peer mentoring is followed by a 6-month family reinforcement program.

Some parents will provide child assessment data of perceived child physical activity behaviors and child health.

This study is intended to evaluate the effects of a drink supplement on heart function and health in healthy adults after consuming a ketone ester (KE) supplement drink compared to a placebo drink.

You will undergo an MRI exam for this study. You will also receive six blood draws in total, from an IV catheter set at the beginning of the study. 

The duration of this study will comprise a single visit and will last no longer than 4 hours. 

The purpose of this study is to explore the physicians’ knowledge of intellectual disabilities (ID) and their medical training and practice. The information resulting from this study will help to design adequate interventions and training programs for medical students and physicians aimed to improve their ID knowledge and the health care services provided to patients with ID. This is an observational cross-sectional study of physicians in the US using an anonymous online survey. The entire survey has 156 items and will require 15-20 minutes to complete.

All eligible participants will be enrolled to receive R3R01 over a treatment period of 12 weeks. The study will consist of 3 periods, including a screening period of 3 weeks, a treatment period of 12 weeks, and a follow up of period of 12 weeks.

The purpose of this registry is to collect information about Hypophosphatasia (HPP), a rare bone disorder characterized by the abnormal development of bones and teeth. This long-term registry will collect and store patient medical information, and other related information to use in medical research. the registry may help researchers better understand the condition and learn more about patients who have HPP. This data may help other people with HPP in the future.
