Clinical research network to focus on the etiology, contributing factors, natural history, complications, and therapy of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. They research the nature and underlying cause of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) and conduct clinical studies on prevention and treatment. Approximately 1,500 pediatric and adult participants throughout the United States and Canada with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) have enrolled into a database. The NASH CRN has recently reopened the database to enroll additional pediatric and adult participants with NAFLD. Serum, liver tissue, and genomic DNA samples are being collected and stored in the NIDDKrepository for ongoing as well as future studies. A three-arm randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial of pioglitazone versus vitamin E completed enrollment in 2009. In addition to this adult trial, a similar trial in pediatric NASH patients randomized 180 children to receive treatment with vitamin E, metformin, or placebo.

http://www.hopkins-hivguide.org/

Launched in 2004, the HIV Guide is a single disease resource, with two main parts: the HIV database, which is accessed by searching on diagnosis, drug name, pathogen, or management or by accessing the resistance tool, and there are also browsable areas of the site, which include news, features, continuing medical education programs and other types of additional readings and information. Guides are authored by academic clinicians and subject to rigorous peer review. You may browse the guide by: Diagnosis Covering opportunistic infections, malignancies, and complications of therapy. Drugs Includes indications, dosing, drug interactions, and author recommendations. Pathogen - Describes microbiology, clinical syndromes, and therapy. Management Including antiretroviral therapy guidelines and strategies. Resistance Tool Provides up-to-date interpretation of genotypic resistance test results. Whether searching for a drug, a pathogen, a diagnosis, or a management issue, your search results will be delivered in a concise and standard form designed to give you the most clinically useful information first, with the option to go deeper if you choose. If you search by diagnosis, you will receive a page listing points covering establishment of a diagnosis, related pathogens, treatment recommendations, issues to consider on follow up, references and more. At each step, we provide you immediately with the information you need to treat the diagnosis and give you the option to read more or more deeply if you choose. On the diagnosis page, you are also provided with links to the information sheet for each drug that may be prescribed, and if you indicate which drug you intend to use, you will be provided with relevant drug selected comments. If you search by drug, you will receive a page listing FDA indications, usual adult dosing, adverse drug reactions, drug interactions, spectrum, and forms. You are also able to access full pharmacological information (mechanism, absorption, Cmax, volume of distribution, protein binding, metabolism/excretion, t _, dosing for glomerular filtration of 50-80, dosing for glomerular filtration of 10-50, dosing for glomerular filtration of <10 ml/min, dosing in hemodialysis, dosing in peritoneal dialysis, dosing in cavh, dosing for decreased hepatic function, pregnancy risk, and breast feeding compatibility). If you search by pathogen, you will receive a page covering the microbiology, clinical relevance, sites of infection, drug selected comments, other information and references. You are also provided with links to information for each drug that may be prescribed, and if you indicate which drug you intend to use, you will be provided with the drug selected comments for that choice. If you search by management, you will receive a page listing definition, indications, and clinical recommendations and additional details, including references. If you click on more wherever it appears on a page, you will find more detailed material about the topic. In addition, the HIV Guide homepage contains a Features section and Literature Review that contain synopses and articles about pertinent topics. The Publications section also provides .pdf versions of the Hopkins HIV Report. Prices represent the cost per unit specified, reflecting the Average Wholesale Price (AWP). AWP prices are taken from the Red Book, manufacturer information, and the McKesson database. These prices are updated every six months. We have listed up to 10 FDA-approved indications for uses of drugs. Though in some cases more may exist, for brevity and formatting issues authors and editors have chosen what they deem the most important. Also listed are disease states for which a drug may be likely prescribed regardless of FDA approval status (see Non-FDA approved uses). The HIV Guide is primarily focused on adult care but does cover issues of perinatal transmission. The material presented on this site represents the considered opinion of the Hopkins expert listed as the author of the module as of the date indicated. The reference section contains an annotated list of the articles that the author considers to be most relevant to the topic. Where authoritative guidelines exist, such as CDC, IDSA or Medical Letter guidelines, they are referenced and discussed along with the author''s recommendations presented.

The vision of the JHU ICMIC is to combine state-of-the-art imaging capabilities with powerful molecular biology techniques to define strategies with intent to cure. It has drawn upon its human resources at JHU to create a center consisting of a multidisciplinary group of premier individuals with diverse skills focused on translating molecular capabilities into imaging possibilities with the single purpose of understanding and curing cancer. Nearly all of the investigators participating in this ICMIC have interactive collaborative projects with one or more of the other investigators. The synergism generated by the collective skills of this unique group of individuals will lead to significant advances in the understanding of cancer and its treatment. The JHU ICMIC structure consists of four interactive and closely related research components focused on hypoxia, HIF-1, and exploiting the hypoxia response element to target cancer cells through choline kinase inhibition. These research components are anchored by the participation of world renowned expertise in HIF-1. The research components utilize MR, PET and Optical Imaging technology to understand cancer vascularization, invasion and metastasis, to achieve effective cancer therapy. The center has selected developmental projects which are highly relevant to the goals of the ICMIC and interactive with the research components. Five resources devoted to adminstration, molecular biology, imaging, probes, and translational application provide the infrastructure to support the research activities of the ICMIC. Research Components in the JHU ICMIC: - Combining Anti-angiogenic therapy with siRNA targeting of choline kinase. - Imaging the Role of HIF-1 in Breast Cancer Progression - Imaging and Targeting Hypoxia in Solid Tumors - Molecular and Functional Imaging of the HER-2/neu Receptor The following are developmental projects currently taking place in ICMIC 1.
