The study is designed to assess the usability of a novel CPAP human interface compared to a traditional nasal mask. Human subjects will interact with two different CPAP interfaces including a traditional CPAP mask and the 2nd generation DreamPort-Eclipse. Subjects will be requested to put on each of the different CPAP interface options a total of three times for a total of 6 trials. The order of device will be randomized.

This study evaluates a home-based blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) program that provides longitudinal health education, empathic guidance, monitoring, and adaptable patient-centered coaching to rural individuals. Participants in this study will be randomized to receive (1) HBPM with the intervention; or (2) the control, consisting of HBPM and a smartphone with a general health application (WebMD).

The purpose of this research study is to see if obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with abnormalities in fat metabolism. Through this research study, the Investigator will evaluate how fat is metabolized in people with and without sleep apnea, what substances the fat tissue releases, and how these substances might change the way the body uses energy and sugar.

This is a single-center, parallel-arm, blind, sham-controlled, feasibility randomized controlled trial (RCT) to be conducted in healthy cesarean-born infants. Eligible infants will be randomized 1:1 to have their nose swabbed with either maternal vaginal secretions or a sterile swab (intervention vs. control group, respectively) following birth by cesarean section (C-section). The main hypothesis is that conducting an RCT assessing the utility of vaginal seeding in modifying the early-life upper respiratory tract (URT) microbiome of infants born by C-section is feasible and that the intervention is safe.

This randomized-controlled pilot study will examine the implementation of a cardiovascular health intervention on postpartum mothers and infants. The investigators will adapt a cardiovascular health intervention into an evidence-based home visiting program, Family Check-Up to create Family Check-Up Heart. Through a Type 1 hybrid effectiveness implementation design, the pilot study will test the feasibility and effectiveness of Family Check-Up Heart (Family Check-Up Heart, n=100; Family Check-Up, n=50). The investigators hypothesize that Family Check-Up Heart will show comparable levels of engagement and acceptability as Family Check-Up alone, and mothers receiving Family Check-Up Heart will have greater improvements in cardiovascular health at 6 months postpartum compared to Family Check-Up alone.

The purpose of this project is to test sleep reactivity as an independent cause of Shift Work Disorder (SWD). The primary hypothesis is that those with high sleep reactivity will show persistent SWD symptoms after experimental reduction of circadian misalignment, which will then be mitigated with CBT.
