Peritoneal carcinomatosis from advanced gastro-intestinal malignancy has historically been associated with poor overall survival (≤ 12 months) with few treatment options. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS), which involves removal of all macroscopic tumor nodules, combined with direct administration of heated intra-peritoneal (IP) chemotherapy (HIPEC) to the affected peritoneal surfaces, has been shown to be an effective treatment option that extends overall survival among certain cases of peritoneal carcinomatosis. IP chemotherapy allows delivery of a high dose of cytostatic drug directly onto the peritoneal surfaces at risk for microscopic residual disease while systemic exposure remains limited. Additionally, hyperthermia is known to enhance the cytotoxicity of several agents (including Mitomycin C) and improves the depth of peritoneal penetration. This trial will be a randomized phase 2 comparison of flat dose versus weight-based dose Mitomycin C. The hypothesis of this study is that HIPEC weight-based dosing may result in similarly effective peritoneal Mitomycin C concentrations with less systemic absorption and potential systemic toxicity, compared with the HIPEC flat dosing approach in patients undergoing CRS/HIPEC.

Fetal complete (i.e., third degree, 3°) atrioventricular block (AVB), identified in the 2nd trimester of pregnancy in an otherwise normally developing heart, is almost universally associated with maternal anti-Ro autoantibodies and results in death in a fifth of cases. To date treatment of 3° AVB has been ineffective in restoring normal rhythm (NR) which may be because current surveillance is limited to once- weekly fetal echocardiograms. It is hypothesized that there may be a vital transition period of several hours in which incomplete block (2° AVB) may be successfully treated avoiding fully advanced irreversible 3° AVB. To optimize the likelihood of timely detection of the transition period this study comprises three steps: 1) to risk stratify for high titer anti-Ro antibodies, which are necessary but not sufficient to develop fetal AVB; 2) to empower mothers to identify 2° AVB by using fetal heart rate and rhythm monitoring (FHRM) at home, and 3) to rapidly treat mothers who detect an abnormality by monitoring with an urgent echocardiogram that confirms 2° AVB with the hope of reversing 2° AVB before it becomes permanent (3° AVB). In addition, it will be determined if FHRM reduces the need for weekly echoes. Although mothers with low titer anti-Ro will not be continued in Step 2 and therefore not followed by FHRM, birth ECGs will be collected to confirm that low titer antibodies do not confer risk. It is anticipated that this study will provide an evidenced based surveillance strategy for those mothers at high risk of having a child with 3° AVB.

Three pieces of information lead to the basis for this study: 1. Individuals with Type-2 diabetes commonly develop peripheral neuropathy. 2. Increased production of the hormone amylin occurs in individuals who have Type-2 diabetes. 3. Aggregations of amylin was found in the peripheral vasculature of rats that overexpressed human amylin. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a correlation exists between the amount of amylin present in the upper extremities of human subjects with Type-2 diabetes and the extent to which symptoms of peripheral neuropathy are expressed in those subjects. The investigators will be testing this by initially collecting blood and skin biopsy samples from subjects, followed by measuring patient sensation and pain responses to heat, cold, and pressure in the upper extremities.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different standardized physical therapy rehabilitation programs on outcomes after an ankle fracture. Researchers will evaluate to see if the addition of ankle muscle power exercises (AMP) improve program adherence, muscle function, physical performance, and patient reported outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Assess feasibility and define the initial effects of the AMP program on ankle plantar flexor rate of torque development and ankle power. Primary hypothesis: an ankle muscle power program will have acceptable feasibility through assessment of 80% adherence, 90% treatment fidelity, recruitment (48 participants who complete the study), 80% retention, and 80% acceptability of the AMP program to facilitate clinical translation and the ability to scale-up the treatment. In addition ankle plantar flexor muscle power, plantar flexor RTD assessed isometrically, and ankle joint power, evaluated during gait and stair ascent/descent, will have significantly greater improvements in the AMP group than the standard of care group at the end of the intervention. 2. Test the effect of the AMP program on physical performance. Primary hypothesis: those completing the AMP program will have greater improvements in the 40 meter fast paced walk test and 11-stair climb test than those completing standard of care at the completion of the intervention. 3. Assess the preliminary efficacy of the AMP program on patient reported outcomes and quality of life. Primary hypothesis: compared to standard of care, the AMP program will result in improved quality of life on the ankle fracture outcome rehabilitation measure (A-FORM) Participants will complete rehabilitation and be assessed for outcomes at baseline and after completing the intervention. Additionally exploratory outcomes will be assessed 3 months after completing the intervention.
