Evaluating mPATH-Cloud, a digital decision aid and navigation tool to support CRC screening

We are implementing a digital health intervention, mPATH-Cloud, in one community health center. Patients who receive a link to the mPATH-Cloud website will be able to view a video designed to help them choose the colorectal cancer (CRC) screening test that is best for them. Patients who select colonoscopy will receive a referral from their primary care provider. Patients who do not select colonoscopy will receive a FIT in the mail. We will assess the feasibility and effectiveness of implementing mPATH-Cloud in combination with mailed FIT outreach for increasing CRC screening among community health center patients.

MAGIC: More Access to Group Integrative Care for Patients with Chronic Pain

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility implementing Integrative Medical Group Visits (IMGVs) for patients with chronic pain in Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs). IMGVs are an innovative way of delivering care for patients with chronic pain, combining medical care, group support, health education, and experiential activities such as mindfulness, chair yoga, and self-massage. IMGVs have been studied before and found to be helpful for patients. In this study, we are evaluating how to implement IMGVs into community health centers that receive funding from the federal government to provide care to patients regardless of ability to pay---called FQHCs. We will look at outcomes related to effectiveness of IMGVs to address chronic pain, as well as cost to the patients and clinic, acceptability and feasibility of delivering the program, and sustainability of keeping IMGVs going at the clinic over time.

Can antibiotics (medications that kill bacteria) help improve responses to Pediatric Crohn's disease treatment?

This research study is to find out if antibiotics (medications that kill bacteria) can help improve responses to Crohn's disease treatment in children with certain bacterial profiles. Participants in this study will be assigned to 1 of 3 study groups using a two-step process. The first step involves looking at a sample of your child's stool that was collected before they started treatment. Your child will be assigned to a group based on their bacterial profile. If they have a type A bacterial profile, they will be in Group A. If they have a type B bacterial profile, they will be in Group B. People in Group A will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 new groups: Group A1 or Group A2. The chance of people in Group A being assigned to Group A1 or A2 is 50/50, like flipping a coin.
