Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inherited immune system abnormality in which bone marrow transplantation has been shown to be curative. However the risks of transplantation are high and not all patients with CGD may need to undergo this high risk procedure. The purpose of this study is to determine the long term medical condition and daily functioning of patients with CGD after a transplant and if possible, compare these results to patients who do not undergo a transplant.

The purose of this study is to examine the characteristics and post-surgical outcomes of pediatric patients diagnosed with lipoblastoma.

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.

Wiskott - Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is a rare serious medical condition that causes problems both with the immune system and with easy bruising and bleeding. The immune abnormalities cause patients with WAS to be very susceptible to infections. Depending on the specific type of primary immune deficiency diseases, there are effective treatments, including antibiotics, cellular therapy and gene therapy, but studies of large numbers of patients are needed to determine the full range of causes, natural history, or the best methods of treatment for long term success. This multicenter study combines retrospective, prospective and cross-sectional analyses of the transplant experiences for patients with WAS who have already received Hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) since 1990, or who will undergo HCT during the study period. The retrospective and prospective portions of the study will address the impact of a number of pre and post-transplant factors on post-transplant disease correction and ultimate benefit from HCT. The cross-sectional portion of the study will assess the benefit of HCT 2 years post-HCT.

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 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 establish reference ranges for the Premier Hb210TM Resolution system in regard to hemoglobins A0, A2, and F for use in providing information for the comparative decision-making process in physiological assessment, medical diagnosis and therapeutic management of patients.
-
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.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the impact of increased fluid intake and increased urine output on the recurrence rate of urinary stone disease (USD) in adults and children. The primary aim of the trial is to determine whether a multi‐component program of behavioral interventions to increase fluid intake will result in reduced risk of stone disease progression over a 2‐year period.

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.
