Rochester, Minn.
The study is being done to identify how many Healthcare workers develop antibodies against the SARS-CoV 2 virus over a 6 month period
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to test whether metagenomic shotgun sequencing can identify pathogens causing cardiovascular infections such as infective endocarditis or myocarditis.
-
Rochester, Minn., La Crosse, Wis., Eau Claire, Wis., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
This study is designed for patients with a cancer of the oropharynx (tonsils or base of tongue) caused by the HPV virus. Traditional treatment involves surgery followed by six weeks of daily radiation therapy. This study investigates a less intense radiation treatment following surgery that uses half the dose of radiation given over two weeks rather than six weeks. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive the less intense treatment versus the traditional treatment by coin flip. Patients are twice as likely to receive the less intense treatment during randomization.

COVID positive will be called, and will receive supplies (medication, thermometer and swabs) at home.
-
Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to prospectively clarify the long-term consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the CNS with multi-modal magnetic resonance (MR) imaging tracking structural, microstructural, vascular and biochemical changes.
COVID-19 increases the risk of developing long-term inflammatory, neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular consequences.

Rochester, Minn.
This study will be a retrospective and prospective analysis of patients with Post-COVID-19 symptoms that persist for greater than 28 days that are seen in the PCoCC (Post COVID Care Clinic), CARP, Pulmonary for post COVID clinic, Neurology, or approval by the MAGPIES research group.
Data for the registry will be aggregated from the EHR and by questionnaires. This data can be used to better guide strategic and tactical decisions as clinicians and healthcare managers respond to the rapidly evolving Post-COVID-19 patients.
The biobank will be optional for the participant and is designed to prospectively collect research biospecimens from Post-COVID-19 with symptoms that persist for greater than 28 days.

Rochester, Minn.
What is the difference in the outcomes of patients treated with an articulating antibiotic spacer versus a static articulating spacer in the setting of two stage exchange for an infected total knee arthroplasty?
-
This randomized phase III trial studies caspofungin acetate to see how it works compared to fluconazole in preventing invasive fungal infections in patients with acute myeloid leukemia who are undergoing chemotherapy. Caspofungin acetate or fluconazole may help prevent fungal infections caused by chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether fluconazole is more effective than caspofungin acetate in preventing fungal infections in patients with acute myeloid leukemia who are undergoing chemotherapy.
