Evaluation of Technology-Assisted Ultrasounds in Pregnancy

The World Health Organization recommends one ultrasound before 24 weeks of pregnancy. Recent developments with technology-assisted ultrasound increase ultrasound access to patients in low- and middle-income countries. This study is the evaluation of the implementation of technology-assisted ultrasounds in 7 antenatal clinics in Zambia. The goal is to understanding the acceptability and feasibility of the ultrasounds, and ultimately to publish information helpful to policymakers and clinic directors involved in implementing similar programs in low-resource settings.

Role of Leaders on LinkedIn

This project will focus on industry thought leaders on social media and their potential to create cultural change, especially with respect to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Thought leaders in the diversity and inclusion space on LinkedIn use their platform to address social issues related to DEI, but there is not a lot of research that has examined this aspect. To fill this gap, this study will propose interviewing thought leaders who regularly post about diversity topics on LinkedIn to gather information on their posts.

Comparative effectiveness and safety of belatacept among kidney transplant recipients

Belatacept is a drug that helps kidney transplant recipients by preventing the body from rejecting the new organ. We want to compare how well belatacept works compared to the commonly used drug tacrolimus. To do this, we plan to study people who got kidney transplants in the United States from 2011 to 2020. By using two large databases, the United States Renal Data System, and the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, we aim to understand how belatacept is used in real life. We are also interested in comparing how effective and safe is belatacept compared with tacrolimus after one year of administration. We will look at outcomes like how long the transplanted kidney will work, how long will the kidney transplant recipients live, how well your kidneys will work, the risk of organ rejection, and certain side effects to happen after transplant like blood cancer.

MG Women's Health Survey

We are studying how myasthenia gravis (MG) affects women during important life stages like menstruation, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. MG is a rare, chronic condition causing muscle weakness. Many women with MG notice changes in symptoms during their periods or pregnancies. We want to understand these changes better to help doctors treat female MG patients more effectively. By collecting information through surveys, we aim to learn about symptom fluctuations related to hormonal changes and identify patterns. This study will provide valuable insights into the unique experiences of women with MG during these life stages, guiding future medical practices and improving care for individuals managing this condition.
