This project aims to conduct a prospective, single-center, randomized, open-label, two-arm study to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of bronchial arterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads (DEB-BACE) combined with serplulimab versus conventional intravenous chemotherapy combined with Serplulimab as first-line treatment for SCLC patients. The objective is to provide evidence-based support for clinical practice.
Determine the effecttiveness of a cross-education strength training protocol in a group of subjects with an anterior cruciate ligament surgery.
Parkinson disease (PD) is a common disorder in which reduced speed of movement results from inadequate brain production of the chemical dopamine. The most effective treatment for Parkinson disease is the use of drugs that provide dopamine replacement therapy (DRT). However, as the disease progresses there are prominent DRT-resistant features of Parkinson disease that are a major source of disability. These include cognitive (attention, memory) impairments and gait disorders such as freezing and falls. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a form of non-invasive brain stimulation, holds promise for the study and treatment of motor and cognitive deficits in persons with Parkinson's. To date, there are no conclusive results regarding an optimal rTMS protocol for recovery of motor and cognitive deficits in Parkinson's disease. This study is designed to promote clinical rehabilitation neuroscience research, and aims to improve rehabilitation in persons with Parkinson's with freezing of gait. This work will evaluate the use of a new accelerated, high dose, non-invasive brain stimulation method for treatment of freezing of gait in PD and will test how applying targeted accelerated stimulation to the brain improves gait disturbance due to PD.
This is an open label, prospective, non-randomised, multi-centre post market study of the POUNCE Venous Thrombectomy system for de-clotting in the peripheral vasculature (e.g., iliofemoral veins).
The proposed research is an important extension of an ongoing perioperative personalized analgesia and intravenous opioid pharmacogenetic research. This research focuses on two of the most commonly used oral opioid analgesics, oxycodone, and methadone in elderly adults undergoing cardiac surgery.
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, include pre-existing and gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, and eclampsia, it complicates up to 10% of pregnancies and represents a significant cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Following the "National High Blood Pressure Education Program Working Group on High Blood Pressure in Pregnancy" recommendation is currently a systolic blood pressure (SBP) ⩾ of 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ⩾ of 90 mmHg. The diagnosis generally requires two separate measurements. Accepted across international guidelines are the following four categories: Chronic/pre-existing hypertension (Hypertension discovered preconception or prior to 20 weeks gestation), Gestational hypertension (Hypertension that appears de novo after 20 weeks gestation and normalizes after pregnancy), Preeclampsia-eclampsia (De novo hypertension after 20 weeks' gestation accompanied by proteinuria, other features of maternal organ dysfunction or uteroplacental dysfunction), Chronic/pre-existing hypertension with superimposed preeclampsia-eclampsia. Over the past 2 decades, extensive epidemiologic studies have clearly established that obesity is a major risk for gestational hypertension and preeclampsia. The risk of preeclampsia typically doubles with each 5-7 kg/m2 increase in pre-pregnancy. The mechanisms have only been partially explored; increased cytokine-mediated inflammation and oxidative stress, increased shear stress, dyslipidemia, and increased sympathetic activity1 have all been proposed as possible pathways. Few studies have examined the relationship between pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational weight gain (GWG), and the risk of preeclampsia. So, our study aims to evaluate the adverse maternal and fetal outcomes related to hypertension in obese and non-obese pregnant women.
This phase I/II trial tests the safety and how well intravenous interferon-beta-1a (FP-1201) works in preventing toxicities after CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in patients with B-cell cancers that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Interferon beta-1a is in a class of medications called immunomodulators. It works by protecting the lining of blood vessels, and preventing brain inflammation. Giving FP-1201 may prevent cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell associated-neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) toxicities in patients receiving CD19 CAR T-cell therapy with recurrent or refractory B-cell malignancies.
In order to support the desire of most adolescents to delay pregnancy (parenting) until their own adulthood, pediatricians must be comfortable and skilled in having reproductive health conversations with adolescents and the mothers of adolescents. Artificial intelligence, such as a chatbot, could be programmed to simulate the perspective of the mother or the daughter as a tool for pediatricians to practice communication before interacting with "real" families. Through human-centered design, an iterative problem-solving approach, our overall goal is to develop and test a communication training chatbot tool that is accurate, developmentally tailored for adolescents and mothers, culturally tailored, and aids pediatricians to manage resistance and conflict about contraception to ultimately close disparities in teen births. The investigator's primary hypothesis is that a communication focused intervention will improve pediatrician interactions with dyads about contraception. Through three stages, the study team will develop an artificial intelligence tool as a behavioral intervention. The study team will gather basic communication data to generate, refine, modify, adapt, and pilot test novel communication tools with real-world encounters while keeping humans at the center of attention
