Clinical Trials

Are you at least 12 weeks pregnant? This study is recruiting women with healthy pregnancies and women who have experienced an abnormal fetal heart rate or rhythm. Researchers are evaluating fetal magnetocardiography as a new tool to improve the study of fetal heart rate and rhythm. This study is located in Madison, Wisconsin.

Has your child been treated for an asthma attack with an oral corticosteroid medicine in the last 12 months? A study team will recruit 60 teens and young adults (between 12 and 21 years old) with persistent asthma who are at high risk for future exacerbation. This study examines the contribution of interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), a protein that is involved in the inflammatory response, in asthma flare-ups. This study takes place in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Are you an adult with asthma, and do you want to help researchers understand how asthma may affect the brain health? This study is examining whether long-term asthma complications are associated with brain structure, function, or cognitive function. In people with asthma, allergens can induce airway inflammation, which activates several cell types that could negatively affect the brain over time. Results from this study may shed light on whether there is a connection between brain health and asthma. To participate in this study, you must be between 18 and 50 years old. This study takes place in Madison, Wisconsin.
