<p>The All of Us Research Program is a historic effort to gather information from one million or more people living in the United States. All of Us is a research program funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The mission of the All of Us Research Program is to accelerate health research and medical breakthroughs, enabling individualized prevention, treatment, and care for all of us.</p><p><br></p>
CHLA Research Study on Cerebrovascular Impact of Acquired Anemia
Anemia is a condition where the body is not making enough red blood cells to transport oxygen. The objective of this study is to learn how anemia may affect the oxygen delivery to the brain as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). By studying this, we hope to better identify people who may benefit from correction of their anemia.
Does pulling out work for birth control?
<p><strong>Why Withdrawal?</strong></p><p class="font_8">“Pulling out” or withdrawal is a method that people use to prevent pregnancy. It's been around for a long time and lots of people use it. However, we--scientists--STILL don't know very much about how to use it and how effective it really is. Some men have used withdrawal their whole lives without any unwanted pregnancies, whereas others have been less successful…</p><p class="font_8"><span style="font-weight: bold;">We want to know why!</span></p><p><strong>Our Questions:</strong></p><ul class="font_8"><li><p class="font_8">If withdrawal is used correctly, is there sperm released in the pre-ejaculatory fluid ("pre-ejaculatory fluid") that can make a woman pregnant?</p></li><li><p class="font_8">What makes someone more likely to have sperm in their pre-ejaculate?</p></li><li><p class="font_8">What affects whether someone will have sperm in their pre-ejaculate?

Healthy Fetal and Placental Development
A newborn is truly a miracle! In the mother's womb, many factors work together to ensure healthy development for the baby. Scientists and doctors at USC/Children's Hospital Los Angeles are trying to understand how a baby's development in the womb impacts its health across its life. This helps us provide better therapies and treatments for babies with birth defects so that they can lead healthy lives. <br>
Cognition as a moderator of motor learning post-stroke
The goal of this study is to understand how an individual’s cognitive function and brain structure may influence their ability to learn a new walking pattern. We hope to learn how people can best learn a new walking pattern when parts of the brain are damaged and cognitive function may be impaired.
