A bibliographic database that provides a highly concentrated source of reports of randomized controlled trials. Records contain the list of authors, the title of the article, the source, volume, issue, page numbers, and, in many cases, a summary of the article (abstract). They do not contain the full text of the article. Cochrane Groups maintain and update Specialized Registers, which are collections of controlled trials relevant to the groups. CENTRAL is comprised of these Specialized Registers, relevant records retrieved from MEDLINE and EMBASE, and records retrieved through handsearching (planned manual searching of a journal or conference proceedings to identify all reports of randomized controlled trials and controlled clinical trials). The Cochrane Collaboration contracts a technology company, Metaxis, to merge the records from the sources outlined above and provide a data feed to the publisher. New and changed data are delivered to the publisher on a monthly basis.

Data resource that includes a large collection of genome-wide ChIP-Seq experiments performed on transcription factors (TFs), histone modifications, RNA polymerases and others. Enriched peak regions from the ChIP-Seq experiments are crossed with the genomic coordinates of a set of input genes, to identify which of the experiments present a statistically significant number of peaks within the input genes' loci. The input can be a cluster of co-expressed genes, or any other set of genes sharing a common regulatory profile. Users can thus single out which TFs are likely to be common regulators of the genes, and their respective correlations. Also, by examining results on promoter activation, transcription, histone modifications, polymerase binding and so on, users can investigate the effect of the TFs (activation or repression of transcription) as well as of the cell or tissue specificity of the genes' regulation and expression.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone.Searchable book regarding molecular imaging and contrast agents (under development, in clinical trials or commercially available for medical applications) that have in vivo data (animal or human) published in peer-reviewed scientific journals prior to June 30 of 2013. 1444 agents are currently listed and there will be no more updates. Also available is a downloadable list of FDA approved contrast agents (Latest update: January 2013) and a Molecular Imaging Probes and Contrast Agents List (MIP & CA List) created by the MICAD staff by screening the PubMed / MedLine databases and other appropriate sources of such information. Only agents used in animal or human studies yielding in vivo data were selected for inclusion in the list. The list is by no means considered complete. No one imaging modality has been given preference over the others and the omission of any agent(s) or the introduction of any errors in the list is purely unintentional. The MIP & CA List is subject to the same copyright and disclaimers as the rest of the MICAD content. The database includes, but is not limited to, agents developed for positron emission tomography (PET), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT), optical imaging, planar radiography, and planar gamma imaging. The information on each agent is summarized in a book chapter format containing several sections such as Background, Synthesis, in vitro studies, Animal Studies (with sub-sections: rodents, other non-human primate animals, and human primates), Human Studies, and References. In addition, the references are linked to PubMed for retrieval of the publication abstract. Also, each chapter contains links to resources at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) and other relevant databases regarding the target of the imaging probe or contrast agent.

Sage Bionetworks, Mount Sinai School of Medicine (MSSM), University of Pennsylvania (Penn), the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and Takeda Pharmaceuticals Company Limited (TAKEDA) have launched a Public-Private Pre-Competitive Consortium, the CommonMind Consortium, to generate and analyze large-scale genomic data from human subjects with neuropsychiatric disease and to make this data and the associated analytical results broadly available to the public. This collaboration brings together disease area expertise, large scale and well curated brain sample collections, and data management and analysis expertise from the respective institutions. As many as 450 million people worldwide are believed to be living with a mental or behavioral disorder: schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are two of the top six leading causes of years lived with disability according to the World Health Organization. The burden on the individual as well as on society is significant with estimates for the health care costs for these individuals as high as four percent GNP. This highlights a grave need for new therapies to alleviate this suffering. Researchers from MSSM including Dr. Pamela Sklar, Dr. Joseph Buxbaum and Dr. Eric Schadt will join with Dr. Raquel Gur and Dr. Chang-Gyu Hahn from Penn to combine their extensive brain bank collections for the generation of whole genome scale RNA and DNA sequence data. Dr.Pamela Sklar, Professor of Psychiatry and Neuroscience at MSSM commented this is an exciting opportunity for us to use the newest genomic methods to really expand our understanding of the molecular underpinnings of neuropsychiatric disease, while Dr Raquel Gur, Professor of Psychiatry from Penn observed this will be a great complement to some of the large-scale genetic analyses that have been carried out to date because it will give a more complete mechanistic picture. The CommonMind Consortium is committed to generating an open resource for the community and invites others with common goals to contact us at info (at) CommonMind.org.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented November 30, 2015. Extensive collection of biological specimens of various kinds that are mostly collected from the population around the Africa Centre in northern KwaZulu-Natal, but there are also specimens collected from populations in and around Durban and elsewhere in KwaZulu-Natal. The results of tests carried out on these specimens are generally stored in the main databases of the various studies involved, and are linkable back to the demographic and other data collected from the individuals concerned. The Biobank is curated by staff of the Africa Centre's Virology Laboratory in Durban, where all the specimens are currently stored, mostly in -80C freezers. A particular strength of its holdings are the dried blood spot (DBS), specimens five drops of blood on a filter-paper card, obtained via a finger-prick - of which there are now nearly 115,000. The following is a list of its holdings (May 2011): * 67,700 DBS specimens collected since late 2002 primarily for HIV prevalence estimation of the population covered by the Africa Centre Demographic Surveillance population. All have at least been tested for HIV, and just over 21% give a Positive result. Specimens are collected annually, so for some individuals we might have a sequence of 8-10 specimens covering 2002-2011. * 36,601 DBS specimens collected by the Vertical Transmission Study (VTS) between Sep 2001 and Dec 2006. This study focussed on mother-child pairs and investigated the vertical transmission of HIV from mother to child. DBS specimens were collected from both the mothers (at initial screening, and then from their children at Birth, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22 weeks, and 7, 8, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 and 24 months. * 6,585 DBS specimens collected as part of the KZN IMPACT study of PMTCT effectiveness in six districts of kwaZulu-Natal. The specimens were collected during 2004-2006 from infants aged 4-8 weeks when mothers brought them to clinics for immunisation. These DBS specimens are stored at room temperature, not in freezers. * 3,524 DBS specimens collected as part of the Kesho Bora study from Sep 2007 . They were collected from mothers at enrollment, and from the infants at delivery, 2 weeks, and at 4, 5, 7, 8 and 15 months. * 50,068 Plasma specimens * 28,775 breastmilk specimens * 11,277 breastmilk products (Pellets and lactoserum). These have all been extracted from the BM specimens in prev. item? * 11,188 RNA and DNA products extracted from DBS and plasma specimens from all our major studies. * 5,735 Serum specimens * 3,505 cell pellets * 1,778 whole blood specimens * 1,284 Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells from the Kesho Bora study mothers (665) and their children (619) * 179 skin tissue specimens from the KST study (Kaposi's Sarcoma) * 176 foreskins

The Mission of the Sarah Jane Brain Project is to create a model system of care for children and young adults suffering from all Pediatric Acquired Brain Injuries in order to advance our knowledge of the brain fifty years over the next five years! As a father of a child suffering from a Pediatric Acquired Brain Injury (PABI), I have spent countless hours searching the internet and speaking with Sarah Jane's development team (doctors, therapists and other professionals) trying to improve the development of my daughter. What I found was that while there are a countless number of wonderful and informative prevention sites for Shaken Baby Syndrome and advocacy sites for brain injuries, there is no one centralized resource for research and rehabilitation for PABI. Furthermore, many of the issues families and children face are the same whether the brain injury was caused by a car crash, a sports-related concussion, an assault or by a tumor. No one person or organization has all the answers to the questions that parents of children suffering from PABI face. Yet through my own experience, I learned that the coordination and dissemination of Sarah Jane's medical and therapy records and data in an orderly manner greatly helps her development team better help her. These wonderful individuals are constantly looking for additional ways to improve Sarah Jane's progress by speaking with their colleagues, reading literature on brain injury, and collaborating with other parents. But they all admit there is a considerable amount that still needs to be learned about the human brain, particularly the developing brain. The field of neuroscience today is similar to the computer science field of the 1950s and 1960s: you have a diverse group of very smart people working independently of one another throughout the United States and the world, yet few know what the others are doing behind closed doors. Fast- forward 50 years and many of the breakthroughs in the computer industry have been made utilizing the principles of open source a research method that promotes free and open access to the design and production of goods and knowledge. Its use was made well-known through the creation of the Linux computer operating system, in which professionals share knowledge to make corrections and fix problems. Open source is commonly used by millions of people today through the Wikipedia online free encyclopedia, a collection of public entries on established subjects that allows anyone to make additions or corrections. The National Institute of Mental Health launched The Human Brain Project in 1993 to develop and support the new science of neuro-informatics. From this initiative, it became obvious what needed to be done. That's why we created the Sarah Jane Brain Virtual Center of Excellence an ecosystem for professionals and families dealing with PABI around the world and a vehicle to help implement the PABI Plan by establishing a model system for PABI.
