24-Hour Activity and Cardiometabolic Health in Chinese American Women with a History of Gestational Diabetes
Chinese Americans, one of the largest and fastest-growing minority groups in the US, have an increased risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) and a substantial burden related to T2D. Moreover, Chinese American women experience high rates of gestational diabetes (GD). However, little is known about the 24-hour activity (physical activity, sedentary behavior, sleep) and cardiometabolic health of Chinese American women with a history of GD. The objectives of this mixed methods study are to characterize the 24-hour activity and cardiometabolic risk profile and to describe the multi-contextual barriers and facilitators to meeting physical activity and sleep guidelines in this high-risk population. This pilot feasibility study using a convergent mixed methods design will collect accelerometer-based data, surveys, biomarker data, and conduct in-depth interviews with a sample of 56 Chinese American women with a history of GD in the past 0.5 - 5 years. Participants (n=56) will be recruited from NYU Langone Health System, online via WeChat (a Chinese social media app), and in person in Chinese community centers. Accelerometers (Actigraph GT9X+) will be used to collect 7 consecutive days of 24-hour activity. Validated instruments (online) will be used to assess psychological, social, cultural, and environmental characteristics. Biomarker data (glucose regulation and lipid profile) collection and in-depth interviews will be conducted in person. Descriptive analysis will be used to describe the sample, their 24-hour activity pattern, and their cardiometabolic risk profile. Quantitative and qualitative data will be integrated in the final analytic stage to identify modifiable factors for meeting physical activity and sleep guidelines.In addition,

3D Free-Breathing Fat and Iron Corrected T1 Mapping
This study proposes a novel 3D liver T1 mapping technique that will enable water-specific T1 mapping (or fat/iron-corrected T1 mapping) to remove the influence of both fat and iron, two confounding factors that have typically been neglected in standard T1 mapping. In a pilot study, we will test the performance of the proposed method for evaluating nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
5-HT2A Agonist Psilocybin in the Treatment of Tobacco Use Disorder
This study will be a multi-site, double-blind, randomized clinical trial of the 5-HT2A receptor agonist psilocybin for smoking cessation. The current trial will be conducted across three sites with experience in conducting psilocybin research: Johns Hopkins University (JHU), the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), and New York University Grossman School of Medicine (NYU). The proposed double-blind study will treat 66 participants (22 at each site), randomized to receive either: 1) oral psilocybin; 30 mg in session 1 and either 30 mg or 40 mg in session 2, with sessions 1 week apart (total 2 drug exposures separated by approximately one week); or 2) oral niacin; 150 mg in session 1 and either 150 mg or 200 mg in session 2, with sessions 1 week apart (total 2 drug exposures separated by approximately one week).
