The specific aims of the study are to:
Aim 1. To determine the feasibility of a community-engaged research partnership to support rapid SARS-CoV-2 testing for symptomatic patients of all ages in the underserved population during the COVID-19 crisis. We will pilot a rapid testing strategy at OCHC using Mayo Clinic Laboratory (MCL) diagnostic processing.
Aim 2. Compare the effectiveness of community-driven messaging in increasing uptake of rapid SARS-CoV-2 testing compared with usual sources of health information. We will draw a simple random sample of OCHC patients (N=1000, age 18+) with 1:1 randomization of communication about COVID-19 and availability of rapid testing from OCHC versus usual sources (control).

The purpose of this study is to develop algorithms that will enable earlier identification and testing triggers for COVID-19 in otherwise asymptomatic patients, and to identify baseline characteristics from patients who ultimately test positive for COVID-19 that may predict clinical trajectory during the evolution of disease.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to correlate BAL CD8+ TRM cells and quantitative lung fibrosis scores in survivors of moderate-to-severe COVID-19 infection.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to support the use of fingerstick whole blood on the Chembio DPP® Zika IgM Assay System.
-
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
The objective of the treatment program described here is to make benznidazole available in the United States on a compassionate-use basis for treatment of T. cruzi infection—specifically, for patients who have acute or congenital infection, reactivated infection, or chronic infection (without advanced cardiac disease)—and for prophylaxis of infection, when indicated in the setting of proven exposure. Benznidazole will be provided for individual patients who meet the eligibility criteria, on request of the treating physician, after consultation with CDC staff.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the presentation, diagnostics, disease course and treatment variations, as well as the factors that may influence features of neuro-invasive Coccidioidomycosis.

Rochester, Minn.
The overall aim of this study is to determine whether solid organ transplant recipients who develop immunity to cytomegalovirus (CMV) after an initial episode of CMV disease as measured by the QuantiFERON-CMV assay are at lower risk of CMV recurrence in the future.

Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
We are doing this research study to find out if partners of subjects with oropharyngeal cancer are infected with human papillomavirus (HPV) in their mouth or throat. Human papillomavirus causes some types of oropharyngeal cancer. It is not known if sexual partners of patients are at higher risk of having oral or throat HPV infection. It is also unknown if certain sexual behaviors increase the risk of oral HPV infection

We are testing this hypothesis through three phases for which we have developed three protocols. In this phase, with this protocol, we have two primary aims.
- Aim 1: To assess acceptability and gather input on the design and content of an as-of-yet undistributed reminder-recall to parents of children 11-12 years of age due for an HPV dose that emphasized the pain-reducing measures and the nurse visits
- Aim 2: To evaluate the process of distributing the reminder-recalls to parents of children 11-12 years of age due for an HPV dose that emphasized the pain-reducing measures and the nurse visits

This study is being conducted to determine gene and protein expression profiles (i.e. which genes and proteins are turned off and on) of those with a possibility of developing osteolysis, infection, arthrofibrosis or metallosis of their THA/TKA.
