The CDC describes Post-acute sequelae of SARS-COV-2 infection (PASC) for the wide range of physical and mental health consequences experienced by some patients. These sequelae may be present four or more weeks after SARS-COV-2 infection, including patients who had initial mild or asymptomatic acute infection. However, there is complete absence of data whether chronic sleep changes due to COVID-19 infection may influence these physical and mental health consequences. While fatigue is one of the common post-COVID conditions, there are no systematic examinations of sleep disturbances in COVID-19 survivors. This will be a pilot observational retrospective and prospective cohort study, to systematically assess if sleep disturbances and severity of sleep apnea comprise a modifiable facet of PASC as well as the short-term and longer-term effects of COVID-19 infection itself on sleep, cognitive function, exercise capacity and lung function.

COVID-19 can trigger a dysregulated immune response, and previous studies have shown that immune modulation can improve outcomes in hospitalized patients. This trial is designed to determine whether intensification of immune modulation early in the course of the disease (while patients are on low flow oxygen) with abatacept (active arm) combined with standard of care (SOC) improves recovery as compared with placebo + SOC (placebo arm). For both groups, intensification of immunomodulation will be provided as part of SOC in case of signs of disease progression (patient requires high flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) or more support) and/or if the patient has rapidly increasing oxygen requirement.

The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed healthcare delivery; arguably, the fields of obstetrics and pediatrics have experienced some of the greatest changes as they have transitioned away from their role as a medical home and into more of an urgent care model of care. Baby2Home is a digital health intervention designed to bridge the resultant gaps in obstetrics and pediatrics healthcare services for new families over the first year of life. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate whether, compared to usual care, Baby2Home 1) improves maternal, paternal, and infant health service utilization outcomes over the first year postpartum, 2) improves maternal and paternal patient reported outcomes, and 3) reduces racial/ethnic and income-based disparities in preventive health services utilization and parental patient reported outcomes.

Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome (PACS), colloquially known as Long COVID, is a prevalent phenomenon that affects thousands of Veterans in VA care. VA patients suffering from Long COVID not only experience lingering physical symptoms following COVID-19 infection, but have increased mental health problems including sleep disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma and stress-related disorders as well as increased use of opioid and non-opioid pain medications, antidepressants, and sedatives to treat these conditions. Developing recovery-oriented care, "a process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, live a self-directed life, and strive to reach their full potential" is a VA priority, however available Long COVID treatments primarily target symptom relief and are not designed to promote the recovery and rehabilitation of Veterans in a mental health context. Long COVID Coping and Recovery (LCCR) is a promising manualized, recovery-focused psychotherapeutic group intervention which aims to improve psychological adjustment to Long COVID symptoms, promote resilience, and facilitate coping, based on established psychotherapeutic techniques such as skills training, acceptance-based and identity-based principles. The investigators will assess rates of recruitment, intervention engagement, and session attendance (feasibility), Veteran satisfaction (acceptability), treatment adherence (fidelity) and preliminarily explore response to Long COVID Coping and Recovery (LCCR). Findings will be used to make a final adaptation of the treatment materials and to develop a research protocol for a large scale RCT of LCCR for Veterans with Long COVID. This study will pilot test a well-specified, group-based intervention tailored to the unique needs of Veterans with Long COVID. The results of the proposed study will provide data to 1) identify adaptations needed to optimize LCCR for Veterans with Long COVID; 2) identify possible benefits of LCCR; 3) inform development of a large scale RCT of LCCR for Veterans with Long COVID.

Viruses are a major health problem for the general public and at risk populations. Normally, detection of antibody titers is the gold standard for determining the effectiveness of the immune system following natural or vaccine caused immunization. However, determining the effectiveness of other parts of the immune system are less common due to the difficulties with testing. Furthermore, there is a critical need to address other therapies in case vaccination is not successful in immuncompromised populations. Exercise has been shown to increase the strength of the immune system against many types of viruses and therefore could be simple way to improve immunity against the COVID-19 virus. The aim of this research is to determine the effects of exercise on anti-viral immunity against many types of common viruses before and after vaccination. We hypothesize that exercise will enhance the anti-viral immunity before and after vaccination. Up to 30 healthy volunteers (age 18-44 years) will be recruited to participate in this study. For completion of Aim 1, three visits are needed totaling around 7 hours of the patient's time and for Aim 2, three visits are needed totaling around 4.5 hours of the patient's time. The initial visit will be for pre-screening and if deemed healthy enough to participate, an exercise test to determine the VO2 max of the participant will be conducted. The following visits will require a trained phlebotomist to insert an in-dwelling catheter and participants will undergo a 20-minute incremental exercise trial. Approximately 50mL of blood will be collected at four different timepoints: at rest, 60% VO2 max, 80% VO2 max, and 1-hr post-exercise. All four collected blood samples will be used to expand viral specific T-cells and compare IFN-γ rele

Background: COVID-19 is an acute respiratory syndrome. One symptom of COVID-19 is a reduction in the number of cells called lymphocytes in the blood. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that fights infections. With fewer lymphocytes, the body cannot effectively fight back against SARS CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Researchers want to better understand how SARS-CoV-2 affects these blood cells. This information may give them ideas for new treatments. Objective: To learn more about how SARS-CoV-2 affects lymphocytes, the immune, and the blood clotting system. Eligibility: Adults age 18 and older who either currently have COVID-19 or have recently recovered from it Design: Participants will give a blood sample. For this, a needle is used to collect blood from an arm vein. For participants who have a central line, blood will be collected through that instead. Participants medical records related to COVID-19 will be reviewed. Participants who have recovered from COVID-19 will be asked to undergo leukapheresis to collect white blood cells. For this, blood is taken from a needle placed in one arm. A machine separates out the white blood cells. The rest of the blood is returned to the participant through a needle placed in the other arm. This takes about 2-3 hours. Recovered participants may have material collected from inside the nostrils and/or rectum. This is done by gently rubbing the area with a sterile cotton swab. Recovered participants may have an echocardiogram to look at their heart. For this, a small probe is held against the chest to get pictures of the heart from different angles. This takes less than 30 minutes. Participation lasts 1-2 days on most cases and may be split in a few visits for recovered patients if leukapheresis and echocardiogram are done. ...
