6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
To collect lab data from capillary and venous blood specimens for use in analytical research studies to support the development and validation of laboratory procedures.
This is a prospective, single-arm, observational study capturing data from whole-body magnetic resonance imagining (WB-MRI) from up to 100,000 male and female subjects 18 years of age or older recruited at multiple clinical sites within the United States. Study subjects must meet a set of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Potential subjects arriving at the study sites will be evaluated for enrollment. It is the Principal Investigator's (PI) responsibility to enroll only subjects who satisfy the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Recruitment can occur by subject presentation at the sites for elective standard screening, word-of-mouth, flyers, healthcare professional (HCP) referrals, advertisement online, or any other means, subject to approval by the associated institutional review board (IRB) or ethics committee (EC) when applicable.
We are the missing link in clinical trials, connecting patients and researchers seamlessly and conveniently using a mobile health platform to advance medical research. We make it easy for patients to contribute to research for medical conditions that matter most to them, regardless of their location or ability to travel.
Studies have shown that people with certain disorders have an increased risk of developing a condition called Metabolic Syndrome (MS). In this study, the investigators want to learn more about MS among people staying in the hospital for treatment of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and also Major Depressive Disorder with Psychotic Features (MDpsy). The investigators also want to learn more about a stress hormone called cortisol that is made in the body. Those who take part in this study will answer some questionnaires, be given some psychiatric interviews, and have some blood taken along with a urine sample. The investigators believe that patients in the hospital with MDpsy will have higher baseline rates of MS factors, cortisol levels, dexamethasone non-suppression, and insulin resistance, compared with MDD alone.
The purpose of the Taste Perception Study is to assess variations in the ability to taste and perceive sensations from various stimuli in younger (18-49 years) and older (50-85 years) volunteers. The study's goal is to determine how these sensations influence what one likes to eat, and what one chooses to eat, and whether there is an association with dietary intake, body composition and chronic disease. Another objective of the study is to determine the association between variations in oral sensations and genes mediating sensory perception and dietary behaviours.
This Study aims to build a diverse and inclusive group of participants to help researchers advance our understanding of how signals and information collected from apps and devices relate to health and may be used to predict, detect, monitor, and manage changes in health. Participants will be asked to complete tasks and surveys, using their iPhone and Apple Research app which include: * Selecting the types of data they would like to share with the study such as health and sensor data * Complete tasks and surveys including areas such as personal demographic information, personal medical history, family history, and social determinants of health
