This study uses questionnaires to gain an understanding of how experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic, regardless of COVID-19 status, may have impacted health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and other areas such as COVID-19-specific psychological distress, disruptions to health care, finances and social interactions in cancer patients. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease that is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The information learned from this study will guide the development of psychosocial programs to improve patient care and outcomes in cancer patients and survivors in the context of facing a global pandemic.

This is a cohort study that will include Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir-ritonavir) treatment eligible for people with a positive SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic test and at least one COVID-19 symptom. This study will look at the change in Post Covid Conditions measured by the number of outpatients, Emergency department, urgent care and inpatient visits before and after COVID-19 between those who did and did not receive Paxlovid. In addition, changes in frailty post-acute infection will be evaluated, in a separate analysis. It is hypothesized that individuals with COVID-19 who received Paxlovid will have a smaller post-COVID-19 increase (vs pre-COVID) in PCC healthcare utilization (i.e., cardiopulmonary) in comparison to patients with COVID-19 who did not receive Paxlovid.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a type of rapid outpatient brain stimulation that uses magnetic fields, called accelerated intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), can treat symptoms such as brain fog, depression, and anxiety in patients with Long COVID. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is iTBS effective and feasible for reducing Long COVID symptoms? We will measure these symptoms using the Symptom Burden Questionnaire. - Are there changes in inflammatory brain chemicals associated with treatment with iTBS? We will be looking at levels of choline in the brain, which is thought to be related to inflammation. Researchers will compare sham versus active forms of iTBS to see if the active group has greater improvement in symptoms. Participants will complete symptom surveys, cognitive tests, and magnetic resonance imaging scans at the beginning, middle, and end of treatment.

Face masks have become a critically important public health intervention after the COVID-19 pandemic. Multiple types of masks ranging from full face filtering to cloth masks have been developed and commercialized to facilitate protection against respiratory pathogens. Most of these systems are made with opaque fabrics and may prevent individuals from expressing emotions or for those who are deaf and hard of hearing, communicating. To date, few transparent face masks which also confer respiratory pathogen protection have been developed. This study will test the feasability and acceptability of two new masks, the SEEUS-95 mask and CrystalGuard mask which are both transparent versions of N-95 filtering face masks.

Background: Viral infections such as COVID-19 may lead to flare-ups in people with systemic autoimmune diseases (SAD). These infections may also change the function of their immune system and/or cause problems with their blood vessels. Researchers want to learn how people with SAD respond to treatments or vaccines for COVID-19. Objective: To understand how COVID-19 affects inflammation, the immune system, and blood vessels in adults and children with autoimmune diseases. Eligibility: People ages 15 and older who have been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease or are a healthy volunteer Design: Participants will have a screening visit. This will include: Medical history and physical exam EKG Chest x-ray COVID-19 test. A swab will be put in the participant s nose or the back of their mouth. Blood and urine tests Participants will be placed into 1 of 4 groups: 1. Those with previously documented COVID-19 infection or COVID vaccination 2. Those with a recently known COVID-19 exposure or vaccination 3. Those with no known COVID-19 exposure or vaccination 4. Those who developed an acute COVID-19 infection Depending on their group, participants will have 1 to 5 more visits. These will occur over 12 to 18 months. Visits may include: FDG PET/CT scan. Participants will lie in a doughnut-shaped machine. The machine creates pictures of the body. For the scan, they will have a radioactive substance injected into their arm through an IV. Kidney function tests Non-invasive vascular studies test. These tests are similar to what it feels like to have blood pressure checked.

People have had to make a lot of changes to their lives due to the COVID-19 health crisis. Most experts agree that social distancing and other safety measures have taken a toll on people s mental health. Amish and Mennonite communities often have large families. They may have limited access to health care. Their lifestyle is based on interaction and group events rather than technology. So people in Amish and Mennonite communities may experience the pandemic in their own special ways. Objective: To describe the relationship between stress related to the pandemic and self-rated measures of mental health symptoms and distress among Amish and Mennonite people with bipolar disorder and related conditions, and their family members. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who are taking part in the NIMH AMBiGen study (80-M-0083). Design: Participants will be mailed 4 surveys. One survey will ask about depression symptoms. One survey will ask about mania symptoms. One survey will assess a broad range of psychological problems. One survey will assess the impact of COVID-19 on their mental health. They will fill out the surveys 4 times over 24 months. The surveys will not include participants names, just codes. This will help protect privacy. Data collected in 80-M-0083 will be used. This includes data about participants genes, medical conditions, and assessments. Participants will get an 800 number they can call to speak to the research team. They can also write to the team if they prefer. Participants who wish will get referrals for mental health services. Participation will last up to 24 months. There will be an option for recontact in the future.

Study VBT00002 is planned to be a Phase 1/2, randomized, modified double-blind, active-controlled, multi-center study to be conducted in approximately 980 adults aged 50 years and older in the United States. The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV) + adjuvanted recombinant COVID-19 vaccine (rC19) vaccine comprised of RIV combined with different recombinant Spike (rS) antigen levels of rC19 compared to RIV alone, rC19 (dose 1) alone, and RIV and rC19 (dose 1) (coadministered in opposite arms). Placebo will be coadministered in the RIV alone, rC19 (dose 1) alone, and RIV + rC19 study groups to control for the number of injections and to maintain observer blinding. Thus, each participant will receive two injections at enrollment, one in each deltoid muscle. Study details include: - The study duration will be approximately 12 months - Study intervention will be administered via a single intramuscular (IM) injection into the right and left deltoid muscles on Day(D) 01 - Dose escalation with sequential enrollment (sentinel cohort followed by main cohort for a given dose) - The visit frequency for participants will be D01 and D30, and D09-D366 (telephone call) Number of Participants: Approximately 980 participants are expected to be randomized.

The goal of this experimental study is to understand if endotracheal tube (ETT) suctioning increases pain and causes stress on the body in intubated adult ICU patients. These patients are already on ventilators, which means they need suctioning to keep their airways clear, but this procedure may be uncomfortable and cause stress. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Does ETT suctioning raise pain levels as measured by the Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT)? Does ETT suctioning increase certain chemicals in the blood (hypoxanthine, xanthine, and uric acid) that show stress and lack of oxygen in the body? Researchers will compare patients who have ETT suctioning (intervention group) with those who do not have suctioning during the study period (control group) to see if there are differences in pain and blood markers of stress. Participants will: Have pain measured before and after suctioning using the CPOT. Have blood samples taken from an existing line at three time points: 5 minutes before, 5 minutes after, and 30 minutes after suctioning. Provide demographic information (like age, gender, and diagnosis) from medical records. This research will help improve how pain is managed for ICU patients who cannot speak for themselves, potentially leading to better pain relief methods in the future.
