This study is testing whether giving pregnant women higher doses of vitamin D than currently recommended can prevent asthma and persistent wheezing in their children during the first three years of life. The researchers plan to enroll 2,000 pregnant women in Denmark. Participants…

This study is testing whether taking high-dose fish oil supplements during pregnancy can reduce the risk of asthma and persistent wheezing in children up to age 3. The researchers are recruiting 2,000 pregnant women in Denmark who have low blood levels of omega-3 fatty acids. Par…

This study collects fluid and tissue samples from the lungs and nose of healthy volunteers and people with a history of lung infections. Researchers will compare the samples to find differences in immune function that might explain why some people get infections more easily. Abou…

This study looks at why older adults, especially frail ones, lose important immune cells (T cells) from their noses. Researchers will compare young adults, healthy older adults, and frail older adults to understand how this loss happens and if it leads to more respiratory infecti…

This study looks at how families decide on antibiotic use for common infections like urinary tract infections, strep throat, and ear infections in children aged 4 to 17. It also tests if a Garmin smartwatch and a phone app are easy and acceptable for tracking symptoms. The goal i…
