Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about physical activity's effect on health in people who have had surgery of a non-functioning pituitary adenoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Do physical activity increase quality of life? - Do physical activity increase general health, cardiovascular fitness, self-efficacy and muscle strength and reduce fatigue and cardiovascular risk profile? Participants will at the start of the the study, at 6 months follow up and 12 months follow up: - Fill out health surveys - Perform a cycling test, hand strength test, chair stand test and wear and accelerometer for a week - Undergo a dual energy X-ray absorptiometry to measure muscle and fat mass - Leave blood samples Researchers will compare those who are randomized to the intervention and see a physiotherapist to get an individualized and person-centred prescription of physical activity plan and those who are randomized not to be in the intervention to see if physical activity increases quality of life and general health.¨.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the diagnostic yield of CADe in a consecutive population undergoing colonoscopy. The main question it aims to answer is the Adenoma Detection Rate (ADR). Participants undergoing colonoscopy for follow-up in a screening setting will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either receive Computer-Aided Detection (CADe) colonoscopy or a conventional colonoscopy (CC). GI Genius is the AI software that will be used in the present trial and is intended to be used as an adjunct to colonic endoscopy procedures to help endoscopists to detect in real time mucosal lesions (such as polyps and adenomas, including those with flat (non-polypoid) morphology) during standard screening and surveillance endoscopic mucosal evaluations. It is not intended to replace histopathological sampling as a means of diagnosis.Researchers will compare the CADe group and the CC-group to see if CAD-e can increase the ADR significantly.
The goal of this prospective study is to learn about the operative outcomes in patients with pituitary adenoma who receive endoscopic resection. The main question it aims to answer is: • What are the outcomes of patient following endoscopic resection? including visual, hormonal, survival, and functional outcomes. Participants' data including clinical history, laboratory data, radiographic images, intraoperative videos will be evaluated and analyzed.
- 10% of patients with hypertension potentially have the treatable condition - primary aldosteronism (PA). This is caused by either bilateral adrenal disease (~40%), managed with lifelong medications; or unilateral disease (~60%), cured with laparoscopic surgery (adrenalectomy). Current diagnosis of PA includes a screening test with aldosterone-renin ratio, followed by a confirmatory salt loading test (in most patients) to demonstrate unsuppressed aldosterone levels. Of note, some patients with suppressed aldosterone after confirmatory tests (also termed low-renin hypertension) may also have unilateral adrenal tumors. - The difficulty with identifying curable unilateral disease is due to adrenal vein sampling (AVS): an invasive, and technically-difficult procedure. An alternative novel imaging, 11C-Metomidate Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT), can detect adrenal tumors which are over-producing aldosterone. It is non-invasive, non-operator-dependent, and potentially may identify more patients with curable unilateral disease. The results from our pilot study in 25 patients with confirmed PA (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03990701, PA_CURE) showed that 11C-Metomidate PET-CT exhibited comparable performance to AVS in subtyping PA, and this should be validated in a larger study. - In addition, 11C-Metomidate is also able to differentiate adrenocortical lesions in the adrenal gland from other lesions found in adrenal tissue, such as adrenomedullary lesions (e.g. pheochromocytoma). - Hence, the investigators hypothesize that 11C-metomidate PET-CT can accurately (1) identify patients with surgically curable unilateral adrenal disease among hypertensive Asians with primary aldosteronism (PA_CURE 2 / PA_MTO EH study) and (2) differentiate adrenocortical lesions from other lesions in patients with adrenal tumors (PA_MTO AT study)
WHYSKI is a prospective within-patient observational clinical study designed to test the hypothesis that alterations of Na+, K+, water, and the lympho-angiogenetic transcription factor Tonicity Enhancing Binding Protein (TonEBP) mRNA take place in the interstitium of the skin compartment of patients with arterial hypertension due to primary aldosteronism in whom hypertension can be surgically cured.
This study is to analyze the characteristics of the IIIL opening of the duct in tubular adenoma and the colonic innominate groove under EC endoscopy, in order to improve the ability to tell lesions and the colonic innominate groove under EC endoscopy (Endocytoscopy).
The global aim of this multi-centric study is to assess the learning curve of U-EMR by an endoscopist skilled in C-EMR aiming to assess the application in real world and check the rate of complete EMR and adverse events related to the procedure.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the correlation between the artificial intelligence (AI) derived effective withdrawal time (EWT) during colonoscopy and endoscopists' baseline adenoma detection rate (ADR). The association between the AI derived EWT with ADR during the prospective colonoscopy series would also be determined. The colonoscopy video of participants will be monitored by the AI and the result of EWT will be blinded to the endoscopists
Pheochromocytomas are tumors of the adrenal gland that develop from cells producing adrenaline and noradrenaline. Consequently, intraoperative blood pressure variations (hypertensive and hypotensive episodes) are characteristic of pheochromocytoma surgery, when these tumors are removed. However, recommendations for the management of these tumors are based on data essentially dating from the 1960s-1990s. Since then, anesthesia and surgery for patients with pheochromocytoma have evolved considerably, and have become more effective with time. In these circumstances, a review of the current situation is necessary. The aim of this study is to investigate the intraoperative hemodynamic changes observed in patients undergoing adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma, comparing them with the hemodynamic profile observed in patients undergoing adrenal surgery for a pathology other than pheochromocytoma (control group).
The goal of this multicenter, observational, analytic, randomized clinical trial is to analyze the laparoscopic and robot-assisted method in the surgical treatment of patients with adrenal diseases. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. to find the superiority of one the the surgical method mentioned above 2. to compare the quality of life in patients with adrenal mass before surgery and after laparoscopic or robotic-assisted adrenalectomy.
