RECRUITING

Greater Houston Area Pediatric Bipolar Registry

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this study is to perform a comprehensive research assessment of children and adolescents who meet The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-V) criteria for Bipolar Disorder (BD) , offspring of a parent with BD, and healthy controls (HC), to obtain blood samples and saliva samples from each subject to allow the evaluation for BD biomarkers and genetic information, to notify participants about future research studies they may qualify for , to recommend follow-up with an outpatient provider if needed and to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (structural MRI and diffusion tensor imaging) to investigate brain structures and relevant pathways associated with mood and behavioral regulation, conversion from softer forms of the BD spectrum (BD-NOS) to harder forms (BD-I and BD-II) and possible early identification.
