With the development of information and communication technologies, Social Network Sites and other online platforms can be great resources for career-related information and social networking. Despite the evidence of possible professional benefits, it remains unclear whether graduate students’ experiences with building online career profiles and social networking are positive. Therefore, this study aims to understand graduate students’ experience with professional practices on the Internet concerning their motivations, benefits, and risks.

The aim of this study is to better understand emotion regulation in infants by measuring brain, behavior, and mother-infant relational mechanisms. We plan to collect simultaneous brain activation in mothers and infants while they engage in a face-to-face interaction. We will then test associations between individual brain activation, mother-infant brain synchrony, and infant emotion regulation behaviors.

Participants complete questionnaires online, then come in for 1 in-person visit. Mother and baby complete a play and a neutral task while fNIRS is collected from them simultaneously.

A study looking at the neural and genetic correlates of depression. Presently, the current study is looking to recruit individuals for two separate groups: 1. MS but NO history of depression2. Depression but NO history of MS or neurological disease. The purpose of the study is to look at patterns of brain structure and function in individuals with depression and compare them to those with MS. We will explore how any differences we find contribute to more problems with depression in MS and see how such differences might lead to better treatment options for depression.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. The loss of estrogen from menopause puts women at a greater risk of developing heart disease. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of drinking beetroot juice on measures of blood vessel health and blood pressure. Participants will drink beetroot juice and placebo juice each for one week followed by blood pressure measurements and ultrasound imaging of an artery in the upper arm. A sub-aim of this study is to investigate the effects of estrogen status on blood vessel function between pre- and post-menopausal women.

There are a total of 6 in-person visits to the Clinical Research Center. You will be asked to drink beetroot juice (2 oz) every day for 7 days. Participants will undergo vascular assessments, blood pressure measurements, and blood draws (11 in total for 6 visits).

Adolescence is a critical period during which many important healthhttps://irb.psu.edu/IRB/sd/ResourceAdministration/Project/ProjectEditor?Project=com.webridge.entity.Entity[OID[058ACDEB3E43384D816C7E390C2B83F6]]&Mode=smartform&WizardPageOID=com.webridge.entity.Entity[OID[E4552FC57E491543A6B7FD8268E23FD7]] habits form in humans. However, animal models provide mixed information about habit formation across development and there are relatively few human studies that address differences between habit formation in adolescents and adults. To address this gap, the proposed study will assess differences in habit formation in adolescents and adults as measured by the "Slips of Action" task, which seeks to discriminate between habitual and goal-directed learning of visual stimuli pairings.

There will be one in-person visit lasting about one hour. Visits will begin with informed consent. Participants will complete a computer task where they are asked to learn associations between pictures and then will be tested on the associated pairings. They will also complete questionnaires and cognitive tasks.

Endometriosis, is a disorder that occurs in women, is when tissue that should be normally found inside the womb is also found in sites outside of the womb. This disorder impairs the function of the endothelium, the cells that line the body’s blood vessels (endothelium). The endothelium helps to control blood flow in healthy vessels. Women with this disorder not only have an increased risk for high blood pressure and high cholesterol, they also have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. They have a higher risk for cardiovascular disease, too. With this study, we will learn how endometriosis impairs the lining of blood vessels and increases the risk for disease. We will test two different intervention strategies to reduce long-term cardiovascular disease risk in women with endometriosis.

There will be 3 in person visits, blood draws will occur at all visits. On 2 of the visits blood flow experiments will be conducted. Participants will take oral medications.

We are evaluating patients who have been infected with Babesia. Babesia is a blood parasite that is acquired from ticks. The number of cases seen in Pennsylvania every year has been increasing. We intend to evaluate the blood of patients acutely infected with Babesiosis and review for possible simultaneous co-infections. We will compare those infected patients with the blood of healthy individuals. The goal is to identify proteins in the blood of acutely infected patients that are specific for Babesia and also evaluate the prevalence of patient's who have contracted a co-infection from the tick vector that transmitted the Babesia infection. The identification of the specific bacterial/parasitic antigens could then be used to create rapid diagnostic tests and help clinicians increase awareness of these tick-borne diseases.

We will obtain basic demographic information and past medical history. We will obtain two 10ml samples of blood. The blood will then be stored and ultimately sent to Antigen Discovery, Inc for proteomic array screening.

This study will test the hypothesize that the combination of low-moderate to severe paresis and persistent motor deficits in the non-paretic arm limits functional independence in chronic stroke survivors. We, therefore, predict that intense remediation, focused on improving the speed, coordination, and accuracy of the less-impaired arm should improve functional independence.

This trial will address the safety of withdrawing hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) in patients with systemic lupus erythematous who are 60 years of age or older. In this older population the benefits of HCQ are expected to decrease since disease activity decreases with advancing age. The study will test whether HCQ can be safely discontinued in stable/quiescent patients.

Participants will be in this study for about 1 year, during which time they will come to 7 visits in the research clinic. The first visit will take up to 2 hours and will include blood and urine sampling and completion of self-assessment questionnaires. Subsequent visits will take up to 1 hour. Participants will be randomized to receive either the active drug hydroxychloroquine or placebo. The treatment will be blinded to both the participant and the investigator. Diaries will be requested in which the participant keeps track of dosing of the study medication.

This study seeks to adapt and test a culturally-relevant, web-based game intervention to motivate Spanish-speaking preteens to initiate and complete human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination. The present study will adapt an existing web-based game developed as an educational tool on HPV vaccination for English-speaking preteens in North Carolina. The study includes the recruitment of paired dyads (Spanish-speaking preteens and parents) to focus groups to evaluate the acceptability of cultural adaptations to the existing web-based game intervention. We will recruit up to 25 parents and preteens ages 11-12 who will receive a link to the Spanish game to play for 7-10 days in advance of the focus group discussions. The focus groups will ask participants about cultural and language adaptations to the existing game and how they react to a game that will serve as an interactive, educational tool on HPV vaccination. The focus groups will take place in Harrisburg, PA between January and March of 2018. No health information will be collected as part of this study.

The scope of the study is to use a novel biologic drug, CC-93538, against symptoms of esophageal dysfunction and inflammation in subjects with Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).The CC-93538 will target the IL-13 receptor, a key driver of disease pathology in EoE. The phase 3 program will evaluate the safety and efficacy of CC-93538 in placebo-controlled Induction, Maintenance, and Open-Label Extension study.
