Background: We investigated factors associated with post-transplant growth in pediatric kidney transplant (KTx) recipients with a focus on plasma bicarbonate (HCO3) and estimated the effect of alkali treatment on growth.
Methods: In this study of the CERTAIN Registry, data were collected up to 5 years post-transplant. Generalized Additive Mixed Models were applied to assess the association between post-transplant growth and covariates.
Participant representation, including the Good Participatory Practice guidelines, in the design and execution of clinical research can profoundly affect research structure and process. Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, an online registry called the Healthcare Worker Exposure Response and Outcomes (HERO) Registry, was launched to capture the experiences of healthcare workers (HCWs) on the pandemic frontlines. It evolved into a program that distributed COVID-19-related information and connected participants with COVID-19-related research opportunities.

Cellular forces regulate an untold spectrum of living processes, such as cell migration, gene expression, and ion conduction. However, a quantitative description of mechanical control remains elusive due to the lack of general, live-cell tools to measure discrete forces between biomolecules. Here we introduce a computational pipeline for force measurement that leverages well-defined, tunable release of a mechanically activated small molecule fluorophore.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate adolescent perspectives of parent-adolescent communication, type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)-specific family conflict, self-efficacy, and their relationship to adolescent self-management of T1DM.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey design was employed. Adolescents completed measures of parent-adolescent communication, T1DM-specific family conflict, self-efficacy, and self-management, which included activation and division of responsibility for management tasks.

HIV care engagement and antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence interventions aimed at decreasing viral suppression disparities for women living with HIV (WLWH) in the Southern United States (i.e., the South) are few and seldom consider diverse social locations.
