Risk Stratification in Children with Concussion

This study will aim to better understand risk factors for longer recovery after concussion in children. It will involve tracking fatigue and other symptoms for 1 year following concussion to determine impact on the child and their schooling. We will also look at biomarkers through saliva samples to see if any genes may be associated with prolonged symptoms after concussion.

This will allow for the delivery of PAUSE-Yoga materials. Participants will complete a survey prior to the program with demographic information and the following scales: Academic Identity Measurement Scale, Athlete Identity Measurement Scale, Exercise Identity Scale, Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale, The International Adjustment Disorder Questionnaire, Transition Plan, Subjective Physical and Mental Health, Social Support, and Resource List. Another survey will be administered post-program with the same scales as the pre-program. Eight, 45-minute Zoom yoga sessions will be completed over 8 weeks for the PAUSE- Yoga group.

Hunter Syndrome (MPS II) Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) Study

Hunter Syndrome or Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is a rare genetic disorder caused by decreased levels of a specific enzyme, iduronate-2-sulfatase. Lack of this enzyme causes buildup of large sugar molecules called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). The build up of GAGs causes significant damage to the body and brain. This study is evaluating the use of JR-141, an enzyme replacement therapy, to provide the missing enzyme to the body. This allows for break down of the stored GAGs. JR-141 uses specific technology to cross the blood brain barrier so that the enzyme can get into the brain. JR-141 is expected to help both the cognitive (brain) and body effects of MPS II.

Implementation Capacity for Triple P in North and South Carolina

The primary purpose of this project is not research, but to build capacity through implementation science and support, and to use the naturally occurring scale-up of Triple P in NC and SC to generate insights about (1) organizational and system readiness, implementation capacities, and practices to support the successful and sustainable scale-up of evidence-based strategies like Triple P; (2) organizational capacities and practices to provide statewide intermediary supports for the successful and sustainable scale-up of evidence-based strategies like Triple P; (3) the feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness, and perceived utility of implementation processes and strategies to promote scale-up; and (4) the feasibility of measuring factors related to implementation and scale-up.
