-
Rochester, Minn.
The study is being done to look for markers in the blood and/or stored kidney biopsy tissue, in patients with a history of childhood onset Membranous Nephropathy. By collecting health information and laboratory samples, our goal is to learn more about membranous nephropathy.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to gather information regarding the use of rTMS as a treatment for depression in adolescents with Major Depressive Disorder. The investigators also hope to learn if measures of brain activity (cortical excitability and inhibition) collected with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can be used to identify which patients will benefit from certain types of rTMS treatment.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a medical record prompt at the time of a medical consult will help to address lapses in routine immunizations, including the HPV vaccine.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to measure the blood level of vitamin D in normal weight adolescents following a 12-week supplementation with Vitamin D3 2000 IU/day.

This phase II trial studies how well reduced doses of radiation therapy to the brain and spine (craniospinal) and chemotherapy work in treating patients with newly diagnosed type of brain tumor called WNT)/Wingless (WNT)-driven medulloblastoma. Recent studies using chemotherapy and radiation therapy have been shown to be effective in treating patients with WNT-driven medulloblastoma. However, there is a concern about the late side effects of treatment, such as learning difficulties, lower amounts of hormones, or other problems in performing daily activities. Radiotherapy uses high-energy radiation from x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide and lomustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving reduced craniospinal radiation therapy and chemotherapy may kill tumor cells and may also reduce the late side effects of treatment.

Rochester, Minn.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether a Mayo-developed, highly miniaturized physiologic monitoring instrument can provide early detection of heart failure (HF) in children with congenital or acquired heart disease at risk for or with evidence of heart failure (HF).
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to develop a registry to collect long-term data on patients with pediatric cutaneous mastocytosis, and develop better knowledge of the timing, symptoms, resolution or progression of the disease, and predictive markers of its severity.
-
Rochester, Minn.
Based on survey data, individuals with Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) often experience symptoms of autonomic dysfunction however there are no reported studies in which these patients have had objective testing of the autonomic nervous system. This is a pilot study in which patients with CdLS will undergo the standard clinical testing for autonomic dysfunction with a autonomic reflex screen and thermoregulatory sweat test.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to connect brain inflammation measured by biomarkers, with data from advanced EEG technology, and clinical outcomes to provide new predictive information about seizure activity in children with critical brain injuries and epilepsy.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the changes in levels of Spexin, leptin and other biomarkers such as adiponectin and resting energy expenditure before and after hypothalamic surgery.
