With the project investigators propose, investigators aim to find answers to the following questions: The fact that irisin and atropine are slimming the proteins that cause an increase in weight loss, and the excessive wasting (cachexia) in some types of cancer makes us wondering whether these factors may be cachectic factors for some GIS and US cancers? It is aimed to determine the relationship between irisin, atropine, some cachectic factors (PIF, ZAG), and cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6) at tissue and plasma levels in these types of cancer. In addition, will psycho and nutrition education be applied to patients have an effect on cachexia? Experimental approaches to be used to find answers to such questions make this project unique.
For patients with de novo stage IV breast cancer, the current debate is whether local surgery can improve the survival of patients. There is no clinical study on the classification after systemic treatment of de novo stage IV breast cancer patients. In fact, the clinical stage of tumor can change with the change of treatment. For example, the stage Ⅲ of locally advanced breast cancer can down-staging to the stage Ⅱ after systemic treatment. Similarly, patients with stage Ⅳ can down-staging to stage Ⅱ or stage Ⅲ after systemic treatment. At this time, the patient can receive surgical treatment. Therefore, this study is to first treat de novo stage IV breast cancer patients with systemic treatment, according to the response after systemic treatment to give different treatment measures（surgery or continued systemic treatment）. The investigators hope that this study will provide new ideas for the treatment of de novo stage IV breast cancer and other de novo stage IV cancers.
The aim of the present study is to clinically compare the incidence of postoperative pain after root canal preparation using TruNatomy system and HyFlex Electrical Discharge Machined (EDM) rotary system in asymptomatic necrotic mandibular molars.
This study is conducted in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study includes three arms: A, B, and C. Arm A will receive HLX07 combination therapy with HLX10 and HLX04 as first line treatment. Arm B will receive HLX07 combination therapy with lenvatinib as second line treatment. Arm C will receive HLX07 monotherapy as third-line or above treatment. All of eligible patients will receive study drug treatment until loss of clinical benefit, unacceptable toxicity, death, withdrawal of informed consent (whichever occurs first, HLX10 treatment up to 2 years).
The cascade of care for the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its progression to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) requires crossing the barriers for their diagnosis and treatment. The multifactorial nature of NAFLD/NASH limits their diagnosis by a single factor solely. This project aimed at developing a powerful composite marker panel based on multi-omics technologies to detect NAFLD without or with fibrosis (potential for NASH) in high-risk populations (obesity, type 2 diabetes, hypertensive, dyslipidemia). This project is an exploratory study to unrevealing the intra-heterogeneity and inter-similarities of NAFLD without and with fibrosis versus those of healthy individuals. The molecular and clinical characteristics of 450 participants (225 adults aged 30-60 years and 225 children aged 12 -18 years) will be investigated; 150 NAFLD patients without, 150 NAFLD patients with fibrosis (potential NASH) compared to 150 healthy individuals. Detection of genetic polymorphism of SNP of 10 gene variants involved with NAFLD without and with fibrosis, gene discovery and molecular diagnosis of dyslipidemia using next-generation sequencing and whole-exome sequencing (genomics), the expression level for the top 5 of 168-panel genes of plasma miRNAs (epi-genomics), the glycosylation pattern of five glycoproteins (proteomics), salivary analysis of ten microbiomes and five microbial-related metabolites (metabolomics) will be investigated. Eventually, the development of precision therapies to target NAFLD without and with fibrosis and possibly reverse fibrosis could be achieved.
Assessing the outcomes of using Rivaroxaban plus Aspirin in patients with Lower Extremity Peripheral Arterial Disease after Endovascular Revascularization
Patients with a variety of malignancies can develop malignant pleural effusion (MPE). MPE can cause significant symptoms and result in a marked decrease in quality of life and a poor prognosis. MPE is primarily considered as an immune and vascular manifestation of pleural metastases. The combined use of anti-angiogenic therapy and immunotherapy may be a promising strategy for MPE. This is a Phase Ib/II clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of administering bevacizumab and camrelizumab into the intrapleural space of subjects with malignant pleural effusion through a pleurX catheter.
Delirium is a common symptom in the intensive care unit, which greatly affects the prognosis of critically ill patients and increases medical costs. Although many studies have implemented preventive measures, they have not been able to significantly improve the prevalence of delirium, because many medical measures devises in the intensive care unit are still necessary for patients. Therefore, early detection of patients with delirium symptoms, risk factors, and immediate Delirium management is important. Nurses are the first line of clinically important roles in assessing delirium symptoms. So, design a delirium simulation education for nurses is important.
The purpose of this research is to gather information on the safety and effectiveness of a new procedure called Fetoscopic Endoluminal Tracheal Occlusion (FETO).
The purpose of this Phase II, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PD-1 inhibitor Plus GP chemotherapy as Neoadjuvant Therapy in the Treatment of Locoregionally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.
