The purpose of this study is to look at ways that female health doctors (or OB/GYNs) help women who have had a miscarriage connect to mental health professionals, such as therapists and psychologists, who can help them with the emotional trauma of the event they experienced. This study is a survey for female health doctors (OB/GYNs) about how they currently do this.
In this study, we want to learn if wearable technology can be used to assess interactions between grandparents and grandchildren. We want to find out if these interactions affect markers associated with grandparent wellbeing. This study will help us to develop new methods that will let us better understand the impact of grandparenting on the health of grandparents.
In this study, we want to learn how to help young adults with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) with their exercise routines. We will do this by understanding the most useful resources to reduce barriers T1D patients face when exercising. This will help us inform future educational tools for those with T1D who are beginning to exercise regularly.
We want to learn more about how many women are at risk for a rare condition called FNAIT (fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia). This condition affects a baby's platelets and puts them at risk of problems with bleeding, particularly in the brain.
Individuals with a history of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and have had an ACL reconstruction (ACLR) are at a greater risk for developing osteoarthritis. The greater risk for developing osteoarthritis is likely caused by too little force or physical activity applied to the knee during weightbearing tasks such as walking. To reduce this decrease in forces during walking following an ACLR, we must first develop effective treatments that can train a person to walk in a way that reduces their risk of developing osteoarthritis. The purpose of this research study is to determine the feasibility and the initial effects of a 6-week training program designed to improve walking mechanics of individuals with an ACL reconstruction.
We are investigating how the brain works when thinking about rewards and losses. We are delivering low-current electrical stimulation to better understand brain activity involved in decision-making.
The purpose of this research project is to learn about whether a personalized eating plan designed specifically for teens with type 1 diabetes will help them better manage their blood sugar. This plan will be individualized to teens' unique preferences and daily routines. A dietician will provide ongoing support to the teen and family throughout the project
People who work in dental offices are often in a lot of muscle pain from the work that they do. The pain will often start in school and so this study will see if students at a dental school experience less pain when they do physical activities during the week.
This three-hour study involves completing an attention task on the computer while you receive different types of electrical stimulation depending on when you visit the lab. You will complete 1 attention task multiple times during each one-hour visit to the lab. During this time, you will receive electrical stimulation for 20 minutes total while performing the attention task. This will result in 3 visits each lasting 1 hour each. This study will allow us to understand how the brain processes attention. Please contact hlmorgan@live.unc.edu if you have any questions or concerns.
The objective of the study is to establish a prospective disease registry for chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO)/chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) in order to investigate the natural history of the disease and the responses of patients to different clinical managements over 5 years.
