Filter by:Ventilatory support during critical phase result in inactivity of respiratory muscles especially diaphragm muscle. These inactivity also result in change of contractile capability and quick muscular atrophy. The aim of the study is to visualize the evolution of diaphragm thickness by echography during Mechanical Ventilation for patients with septic shock or acute respiratory distress syndrome and to compare with the evolution for patients under non-invasive ventilation and those with spontaneous ventilation. Measurements will be performed at day 1, day 5 and day 10 (if patient still under a mode of ventilation or in the unit). The evolution of diaphragm thickness will also be compared to pectoralis muscle atrophy, which is not involved in ventilation, in order to assess respective effect of ventilatory inactivity and undernutrition linked to intensive care.
This study seeks to establish the sensitivity and specificity of what appears to be a unique brainstem biomarker of Parkinson's Disease (PD) - an electrically induced olygosynaptic nasotrigeminal reflex response - in differentiating early stage PD from normal controls and from patients with various other neurodegenerative diseases. This study will additionally compare the biomarker to olfactory testing.
This pilot study is aimed to reconstruct atrophied posterior alveolar mandibular ridges using biomaterial and autologous bone marrow derived stem cells (BMMSC) and to insert an implant into the new bone in a prosthetically guided position.
The purpose of this study is to assess the use of the Alma CO2 Pixel FemiLift™ in the treatment of VulvoVaginal Atrophy (VVA) in postmenopausal female subjects. The primary endpoint is to assess the change in the vaginal dryness by means of a Visual Analogic Scale (10 cm VAS) and/or Bachmann Index in VVA. The clinical improvement will be assessed by patient filled Vulvovaginal Atrophy.
This was a multi-centre, randomized, investigator blinded, vehicle controlled trial using intra-individual comparison (right half-face versus left half-face). Participants with each half-face randomized to one of the two following treatments: - Adapalene 0.3 percent (%) - benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2.5% gel (TactuPump® Forte). - Vehicle gel The main objective of this trial was to evaluate the effect of Adapalene 0.3% - BPO 2.5% (ABPO Forte) gel versus vehicle gel on the risk of formation of atrophic acne scars in moderate to severe acne participants.
H. pylori infection plays a very important role in gastric carcinogenesis, progressing from chronic gastritis through atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia and finally cancer. It is difficult to diagnose H. pylori related gastritis and gastric atrophy on the basis of endoscopic findings. Histology is currently considered to be the gold standard for detecting H. pylori infection. The reliability of detecting H. pylori infection histologically depends on the site, number, and size of gastric biopsy specimens. The blind biopsy sampling of normal appearing mucosa has the risk of missing pathology and sampling errors. Most studies conclude that as well as on expertise in staining and visualizing the bacteria. Considerable error also occurs in identifying gastric atrophy using blind biopsy sampling, and neither the original nor the revised version of the Sydney system reliably identifies more than half the cases in patients with confirmed gastric atrophy.
This multiple-center, 3-part, single-blind dose escalation (Part A), randomized, double-blind (Part B), and open-label multiple dose extension (Part C) study will be conducted in male and female subjects with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension to evaluate the effect of TD-9855 in improving symptoms of orthostatic intolerance.
This is a multi-centered, randomized prospective single blinded clinical trial comparing CO2 fractionated vaginal laser therapy and vaginal estrogen cream therapy in the treatment of vulvovaginal atrophy/GSM.
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been associated with a development of atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia. H. pylori related atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia have been regarded as pre-malignant lesion. However, the role of H. pylori eradication treatment in the reversibility of atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia has not been clearly defined. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between H. pylori eradication and the reversibility of atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia in Korean patients.
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Zimura intravitreal (IVT) administration when administered in participants with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
