Healthy Children Needed for Single Study Visit on Immunometabolic Dysregulation
Contact
Description
Healthy control children are needed to help participate in a study on Immunometabolic Dysregulation. The study involves one visit to CHOP to measure the participant's height and weight, learn more about their medical history, and take a blood sample. The goal of this study is to better understand how immune function changes throughout childhood. Our goal is to find which factors may influence the immune system by comparing patients who have problems with their immune system with those who do not. Participating in this study helps CHOP to advance the health and well-being of children in our community with a focus on those with immunometabolic dysregulation. Participants of this study will be compensated for their time and energy.
Eligibility and criteria
What to expect
1-2 study visits at CHOP, each 1-2 hours long. During the visit participants will be measured for height and weight, asked to provide a blood sample during the visit, and answer questions about medical history and/or review medical records.
