Tearduct Blockage
Scientific Questions Being Studied
We are planning on looking at social determinants of tearduct blockage or excess lacrimation. We could also look at treatment approaches.
Project Purpose(s)
- Disease Focused Research (Tearduct blockage)
Scientific Approaches
We will do retrospective allofus data review. Run statistical analysis on the data on the allofus notebook.
Anticipated Findings
We are anticipating socioeconomic disparities in presentation and treatment of tearduct blockage and excess lacrimation.
Demographic Categories of Interest
This study will not center on underrepresented populations.
Data Set Used
Controlled Tier
Health disparities in periocular malignancies
Scientific Questions Being Studied
The goal of this study is to identify social and medical factors associated with periocular malignancies. Identifying and addressing health disparities can minimize the progression to severe outcomes, such as loss of eye, which have a detrimental effect on patients’ quality of life.
Project Purpose(s)
- Population Health
- Control Set
Scientific Approaches
We plan to run a case-control study using electronic health records and sociodemographic data from All of Us dataset. We will use R or Python to run our analysis and look for trends.
Anticipated Findings
Identifying and addressing health disparities can minimize the progression to severe outcomes, such as periocular malignancy.
