Screening Emotions in Adolescents at the Hospital for mTBI (SEARCH-mTBI)
The goal of this observational study is to develop and validate a clinical tool to predict which adolescents aged 11 to less than 18 years of age with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are at an increased risk for developing significant new or worsening mental health conditions. The main aims the study wish to answer are: - Does the adolescent have new or worsening depression or anxiety defined as a change from their previous medical history using self-reported questionnaires at either one or three months post-injury? - Does the adolescent have unmet mental health care needs, defined as not receiving any mental or behavior health care in patients with new or worsening anxiety or depression as defined by the self reported questionnaires? Participants will be enrolled after being diagnosed in the emergency department (ED) with an mTBI. During the ED visit, the child's parent/caregiver and the adolescent will complete several questionnaires related to mental health which include tools to measure anxiety and depression. Participants will be asked to complete these questionnaires again at 1 month and 3 months post enrollment.

Identifying Strategies to Curtail Weight Regain After GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Treatment Cessation
Longitudinal studies show there is a steep increase in weight regain in the first 3-4 months after stopping GLP-1 receptor agonist medications (GLP-1s) and most patients regain most of their weight within a year. Insurers now question the utility of GLP-1s for weight loss as they are hesitant to cover these costs long-term (~$833 per person per month). Some patients would also prefer not to take these medications in perpetuity and are likely to struggle with lifelong adherence. These challenges present an opportunity to test alternative interventions, such as meal replacements and behavioral treatments, to support weight maintenance after successful weight loss with GLP-1s. This regimen would allow patients to benefit from significant weight loss in the first year of taking GLP-1s and use more cost effective and sustainable strategies for long-term maintenance.

Socioecological Factors Associated With Ethnic Disparities in Bariatric Surgery Utilization and Post-WLS
The goal of this cross-sectional observational study is to examine potential relationships between the blood and gut microbiota of patients with obesity before and after weight loss surgery (WLS) and evaluate potential ethnic differences in the blood and gut microbiotas before and after the WLS. The main aims / objectives of this sub-study are: - Aim 1. Compare the relationship between the blood and the gut microbiomes among a sample of (1) pre-WLS and (2) 6-month post-WLS participants. Hypothesis: Blood bacterial composition will resemble that of the gut microbiome among pre-WLS participants. Because the effect of WLS on the blood microbiome is not known, our post-WLS results will be mostly exploratory. - Aim 2. Determine racial differences in the blood microbiome of the pre- and post-WLS groups. Hypothesis2: Ethnic differences will be detected in both the pre- and post-WLS groups.

Deep Brain Stimulation for Psychosis
There are three hypotheses proposed for this study: 1) Participants will report no unanticipated serious adverse events during the eight months of treatment. 2) Investigators will successfully model psychotic versus non-psychotic brain states using support vector machine (SVM) classifiers. 3) Participants specific brain stimulation parameters can induce a change in the brain state consistent with non-psychotic states as measured by classifier output. Hypotheses 1, 2, and 3 address safety and tolerability, efficacy, and the putative mechanism of successful treatment. The overall objective is to use next generation Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) combined with antecedent stereo electroencephalogram (SEEG) mapping to establish a new therapy for treatment-refractory schizophrenia given the limitations of current treatment modalities. The primary objective is to demonstrate safety of acute and chronic network guided stimulation for treatment-refractory schizophrenia. Exploratory Objectives: 1. Use intracranial mapping (SEEG) combined with pharmacological manipulation of psychotic states to create a protocol for participant specific deep brain stimulation to treat treatment-refractory schizophrenia. 2. Develop closed loop stimulation protocols to modify brain states during psychotic brain activity induced by low-dose ketamine administration. 3. Investigate the use of mnemonic similarity to characterize brain networks related to symptoms of treatment-refractory schizophrenia. 4. Treatment-related objectives: Record a reduction in psychotic symptoms, as well as an improvement in psychosocial function and cognition.

• A female participant of childbearing potential who is not able or willing to provide a negative pregnancy blood test during the screening phase of the study and during several additional timepoints throughout study participation. Specifically, the investigators will require a pregnancy test on the day of ketamine (or placebo) administration to avoid the risk of administering ketamine to a pregnant patient.
• A separate cardiac condition that, in the opinion of study physician would present an unacceptable risk of undergoing general anesthesia or ketamine administration.
• Participants with poorly controlled hypertension or persistent tachycardia, at baseline, will be excluded.
• Participants who are taking an anti-depressant medication.
• Any known contraindications for ketamine and/or esketamine (Spravato):
• Patients for whom a significant elevation of blood pressure would constitute a serious hazard, according to the opinion of the study PI.
• Patients with known hypersensitivity to ketamine, esketamine, or to any of the excipients.
• Patients with Aneurysmal vascular disease (including thoracic and abdominal aorta, intracranial, and peripheral arterial vessels) or arteriovenous malformation.
• Patients with a history of intracerebral hemorrhage.
• Patients with resting heart rate over 90 or below 55 beats per minute (BPM)
• Participants taking a medication with a known interaction with ketamine or esketamine (amphetamines, monoamine oxidase (MAO)-Is, aminophylline, theophylline, norepinephrine, epinephrine, vasopressin, dobutamine, ephedrine, ethanol, Ergometrine/Ergonovine). Patients taking benzodiazepines will not be excluded as this is recommended to prompt monitoring of patients in the information for esketamine. Dr. McDonagh will review such cases including for symptoms of sedation associated with their use and the dosage and duration of therapy for each. The investigators will exclude subjects who have any evidence of central nervous system (CNS) depression, such as decreased level of arousal or respiratory depression, thought to be linked with CNS depressants. The investigators will use the PRODIGY score to exclude any patient taking one of these medicines determined to be HIGH risk (score of 15 points or higher, https://www.apsf.org/wp-content/uploads/newsletters/online-only/202006/PRODIGY-Interactive-Risk-Assessment-Tool.pdf). The investigators note that ketamine has been used as an adjunct for sedation with benzodiazepines and opiates in the anesthesia environment, and the FDA's guidance on ketamine states: "KETALAR has been studied in over 12,000 operative and diagnostic procedures, involving over 10,000 patients from 105 separate studies. During the course of these studies KETALAR was administered as the sole agent, as induction for other general agents, or to supplement low-potency agents."
• During the ketamine administration phase in the hospital, patients with a history of benzodiazepine (or other CNS depressant) usage will undergo more frequent documentation of respiratory rate and heart rate (every 10 minutes). All patients will undergo continuous pulse oximetry monitoring to initiate supportive measures if there is any evidence of respiratory depression. In any patient with a history of opiate or 3-quinuclidinyl benzilate (BZ) administration, the investigators will have both flumazenil and naloxone immediately available at the bedside for administration if there is any evidence of respiratory distress.
• On the day of planned ketamine (or placebo) administration, Dr. McDonagh will review all medicines being administered to the patient to ensure there is no potential interaction. This will be documented on the Ketamine Administration Checklist included in appendix 6.
• On the day of planned ketamine (or placebo) administration, subjects will undergo a urine drug screen to avoid the accidental administration of ketamine to a patient who tests positive for any agents that is contraindicated (such as psychostimulants or CNS depressants). This is now reflected in the ketamine administration checklist (appendix 6).

Polypill for Prevention of Cardiomyopathy (PolyPreventHF)
This study will investigate the utility of a polypill-based strategy for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and high risk of heart failure (HF), as assessed via the WATCH-DM risk score. Polypill therapy will consist of empagliflozin 12.5 mg, losartan 50 or 100 mg, and finerenone 10 mg daily. The study duration is 3 months, and participants will be randomized to either polypill therapy or usual care. The primary outcome is change in peak VO2 and adherence to usual care. The investigators hypothesize that the use of a polypill is feasible and improves medication adherence and peak VO2 as compared to those receiving usual care.

Efficacy of LoDoCo in Improving Exercise Capacity Among Patients With HFpEF and Inflammation
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of low dose colchicine (LoDoCo) on measures of exercise capacity, physical function, frailty, and quality of life, among patients with heart failure with chronic stable preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and systemic inflammation. The use of LoDoCo in this study is considered investigational as it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF. Participants will undergo a 1-day screening that includes a blood draw and physical examination. If deemed eligible for the study, participants will undergo a baseline visit within 2 weeks of screening visit that includes physical examination, exercise testing, echocardiography and completion of quality-of-life surveys. Participants will also be randomized at this visit (randomly assigned to a group) to receive either LoDoCo or placebo (inactive substance) for 3 months. Participants will be called back at 3 months for repeat physical examination, blood draws, echocardiography, exercise testing and completion of quality-of-life surveys. Each visit will take about 3 hours. Total study duration is about 3 months.

A Research Study to See How Well CagriSema Compared to Tirzepatide Helps People With Obesity Lose Weight
This study will look at how well CagriSema compared to Tirzepatide helps people lower their body weight. CagriSema is a new investigational medicine developed by Novo Nordisk that combines Cagrilintide and Semaglutide. CagriSema is not yet being prescribed by doctors. Participant will get injections once a week throughout the treatment period. Participant will inject the study medicine under the skin with a pen injector in the thigh, stomach, or upper arm. After a first low dose, the study medicine will be gradually increased until reaching the planned dose (2.4 mg CagriSema or 15 mg Tirzepatide). The study will last for about one and a half year for each participant.
