Clinical Studies

Patient Perspectives on Next Generation Regenerative Treatments: A Qualitative Study Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to explore patients’ knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes, among other factors, towards taking platelet-rich plasma (PRP) (cohort 1) or socioeconomic status SoC (cohort 2) to identify facilitators and barriers toward regenerative care using qualitative interviews.

Examining the Sociocultural Influences on Menstrual Health and Uterine Fibroids among Latinas and Black Women Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to investigate sociocultural influences on menstrual and uterine fibroid (UF) experiences of black women (BW) and hispanics/latinas (HL) with uterine fibroids (UF). Examining these sociocultural influences will demonstrate their impact on UF health disparities and menstrual health discussions to improve health outcomes in these two underserved and understudied populations in biomedical and women’s health research.

Uterine fibroids (UF) are a significant public health concern with a lifetime prevalence of over 70% in all women; however, Black women (BW) have been historically understudied and are disproportionately affected by UF and Hispanic/Latinas (HL) have almost been completely unstudied.
