Study Purpose. The purpose of TRACK-TBI plasma and serum samples is to serve as a validation cohort. Requests for samples to be used in a discovery cohort or for an exploratory study will not be entertained. • Requests for samples must be accompanied with preliminary data from humans with TBI, showing in small- to moderate-sized cohorts that the biomarker(s) being proposed show promise as a diagnostic or prognostic biomarker for TBI. Preliminary results from animal models or humans with other disorders (i.e., stroke, epilepsy) are not sufficient. • Due to the complex nature of the clinical data collected and its relationship with the biofluid biomarkers, analysis should be carried out in collaboration with a TRACK-TBI Investigator. This Investigator must be identified on the Research Collaboration Request Form.
Study Purpose i. The purpose of the NSCI is to improve college instruction by researching internship programs and the improvement of college experiences, educational outcomes, and career readiness.
ii. UW will use SITE PII, as described in the NSCI Dataset subsection above (Sec 5.c.i.), to create a de-identified (both student and institution) dataset to perform NSCI Study analysis.
Study Purpose. The purpose of this study is to help educators understand what activities are helpful to students as they prepare for high school STEM courses.
Study Purpose. The purpose of this evaluation was to learn how the variety of transportation options employed in eight areas of the state met the objectives of the XxXxxxxx-Xxxxx Act and could be best utilized by school districts around the country. It was designed to assemble information from the providers and users of transportation services about mode, cost, preferences, and usefulness for different age groups and in different geographic settings. In addition, the study addressed an underlying assumption of XxXxxxxx- Xxxxx—that remaining in a homeless student’s school of origin is an important stabilizing influence that will result in higher academic performance than homeless students who are forced to move from their school of origin. The study collected data from school districts and also spoke directly with homeless students, their parents, and school administrators to gain their perspectives about the pilot programs. In short, the study tried to answer four basic questions about the homeless student transportation pilot programs: • What modes of transportation were used? By what age groups? In what geographic settings? • What was the cost of each mode of transit? • What modes of transportation were preferred? By students? By parents? By transportation coordinators and homeless liaisons? Why? • Did staying in the school of origin affect students’ academic performance? In order to answer these questions, the evaluation team reviewed previous research in the field, interviewed users and implementers of homeless student transportation, and gathered relevant data from the participating school districts. realize significant savings and receive special programs that might otherwise be unavailable to them. Washington's ESDs are similar to regional support systems in other states.
Study Purpose. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of BLVR using the Pulmonx Endobronchial Valve (EBV) in treated study participants compared to control participants to support a premarket approval application to FDA.
Study Purpose. Please specify the purpose of your study and identify how your study will contribute to our current knowledge on the topic and fill an identified gap in that knowledge.
Study Purpose. The purpose of this study is to create a registry to provide insight into treatment selection and treatment outcome of pancreatic IRE in order to develop an evidence base such that physicians can provide the best possible care to patients with pancreatic cancer requiring surgical interventions. The investigators seek a better understanding of the uses of ablation in the treatment of unresectable soft tissue pancreatic tumors and the limitations, concerns, and complications that earlier users have.
Study Purpose. Currently, there is a need to understand the importance of the role that access to at last basic water and sanitation services plays in the achievement of the SDGs external to the achievement of SDG 6 alone. The goal of this thesis is to determine if there is a relationship between coverage of WASH services and economic growth, which will provide support to the importance of the WASH? sector to the SDGs’ overall goal of poverty eradication. In order to understand and address this need, the thesis has two aims. First, there will be an assessment of the effects of WASH on the economy through the study of the relationship between water and sanitation access and GDP growth. Second, there will be an assessment of the effects of the economy on WASH through the study of the relationship between total financial flows to the WASH sector and access to WASH services. By describing this relationship, there could be an increased focus on the WASH sector and a greater push for the achievement of universal coverage of services as a means of achieving the other goals outlined in the 2030 Agenda.
Study Purpose. 1.1.1 The purpose of this study is to define and assess the options for improving strategic transport connections and active travel options along the A956 Wellington Road corridor, between the A90(T) / A956 Charlestown Interchange and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx Bridge. The study corridor area is shown on the map at Annex A.
1.1.2 This STAG Part 1 study needs to consider the options which were sifted out of the Pre-Appraisal Report, which was produced for NESTRANS in January 2015:
Study Purpose. The purpose of the study is to present an evaluation framework for measuring the impact of patient engagement related to EHR interaction for people with Type 2 diabetes. The study will capture the current research surrounding patient engagement and electronic health records for patients with diabetes through a literature review and meta-analysis of the three topics. Based on the current research around patient engagement, EHR use and clinical measures for diabetes, an evaluation framework is presented that could be useful for any provider or program that provides diabetes care and has an EHR.
