Are you a woman with coronary microvascular dysfunction? In this clinical trial, researchers are studying coronary microvascular dysfunction, which occurs when there are problems in the small blood vessels in the heart. It frequently causes chest pain and is more common in women. The researchers want to learn how daily life and mental stress affect the heart. You may be able to participate if you are at least 45 years old, have gone through menopause, and are willing to undergo tests to measure your stress level. The study is taking place at locations in Atlanta, Georgia.

Do you or your child have sickle cell disease? Researchers are testing whether a type of gene therapy will prevent all severe vaso-occlusive pain events in individuals living with sickle cell disease. In this study, stems cells are collected from the patient, modified in a lab, and then the gene-modified cells are given back to the patient. Participants must be between 13 and 40 years old. The study is taking place at sickle cell and transplant centers in California, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, and Wisconsin.

Do you have a child with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS)?
This study is assessing the safety and efficacy of Lomecel-B™ in treating HLHS. Lomecel-B contains human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), special cells in the body that are able to change into other types of cells, such as heart, blood, and muscle cells. Lomecel-B uses MSCs from bone marrow of unrelated young healthy donors. These are called "allogeneic", and do not require donor matching to the patient. To participate in the trial, the child must be less than 1 year old and require stage II palliation for all types of HLHS. This study is in multiple locations. Participants will be randomized to receive either an injection of Lomecel-B in the heart or no injection during their Stage II operation. They will be monitored for safety and one year later, heart function will be measured using cardiac MRI, echocardiogram, blood studies, growth, and scales of quality of life and heart failure.

You must be at least 18 years old to take part. The study is taking place at locations in California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Washington.

Are you an adult with atrial fibrillation? In this study, researchers are comparing a continuous direct oral anticoagulation (DOAC) use versus time-limited (1 month) DOAC guided by an AF-sensing Smart Watch (AFSW) for persons with atrial fibrillation and a moderate risk of stroke. Participants must be between the ages of 22 and 85 and have a history of atrial fibrillation. The study is taking place at locations in California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, and Washington, D.C.
