We aim to assess the the efficiency and safety of N-acetylcysteine for prevention of thrombotic events after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Contrarily to late-onset (LO) colorectal cancer (CRC), early-onset (EO) CRC incidence is increasingly growing. Several factors, such as obesity, chronic inflammation, and intestinal dysbiosis, can increase the general risk of CRC. However, little is known about the biology of EO-CRC. To evaluate whether such selective rise in the incidence of EO-CRC patients mirrors a distinct transcriptomic profile, the investigators will first dissect EO-CRC's transcriptomic landscape. Then, the investigators will investigate the colorectal cancer stem cell (CSC) compartment by in vitro functional assays and RNA-seq analysis. Because our preliminary data indicate an increased aggressiveness of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in EO-CRC,the investigators propose to investigate the CSC niche and the interaction with the TME to dissect the molecular and cellular pathways occurring in EO-CRC. A cohort of 30 EO-CRC patients (<50 years old) will be enrolled and fully characterized. About 10 EO-CRC-derived CSCs in the form of organoids and spheroids will be generated. Since the relevant differences between CR-CSCs isolated from EO-CRC vs LO-CRC patients are still unknown, the investigators will gain information about their specific features such as clonogenic activity, tumorigenic/invasive capacity, and about differences in the mechanisms regulating their cross-talk with TME components.
In this study the investigators will select and develop potential therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for glioblastoma (GB). Activities include tissue microarray (TMA) to test monoclonal antibodies specificity and target distribution, selection of glioblastoma specific functional monoclonal antibodies, identification of candidate targets.
The goal of this multicentric randomized controlled clinical trial is to test the role of mobile medical application (APP) on adjuvant therapy compliance and quality of life (QoL) in patients with early breast cancer. Participants assigned to the Ruijin Breast Cancer APP (RJBC-APP) group can receive treatment reminders, matters needing attention as well as science knowledge and they can communicate with the medical staff during adjuvant treatments while follow-up can only be conducted in outpatient clinic for those in the Control group.
This is a prospective, randomized, multi-center trial that aims to investigate whether termination of atrial fibrillation can be used as an ablation endpoint for persistent atrial fibrillation (PersAF). Eligible patients who provided consent were randomly assigned to one of two groups: the AF-termination group (whose ablation endpoint was the pursuit of AF-termination) or the prespecified-ablation group (whose ablation endpoint was prespecified ablation followed by electrical cardioversion).
The aim of this study is a comparison of induction of labor with a cervical ripening balloon left in place for one hour compared to twelve hours. The primary outcome is time to delivery. Women admitted for induction of labor will be recruited and randomized to either a cervical ripening balloon for one hour or twelve hours. the management of delivery after the extraction of the balloon will be left to the discretion of the attending physician.
the study aims to assist the different 3D shapes of maxillary sinus in adult individuals among Egyptian population,The data collection will be obtained from the data base available at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University. CBCT images will be obtained from Egyptian patients who were referred to the CBCT unit in oral and maxillofacial radiology department for different purposes. The following radiographic examination will be done in Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology Department, Faculty Dentistry, Cairo University. semiautomated segmentation will be performed for the maxillary sinus in both side and then linear and 3D volume will be assessed for each sinus.
In this study, the exercise tolerance in patients with long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (LcFAOD) will be compared to that of healthy volunteers who are carefully matched in terms of age, sex, BMI and physical activity score. The study aims to assess exercise capacity using cardiopulmonary exercise (CPX) tests and activity monitoring over a 7-day period. The hypothesis of the study is that LcFAOD patients will exhibit greater oxygen debt during short periods of exercise compared to healthy individuals. These findings will contribute to a better understanding of exercise intolerance in LcFAOD patients and may guide the development of targeted interventions, such as exercise training programs and enable the analysis of effectiveness of (new) treatments.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of prophylactic antibiotics in healthy individuals who are in need of surgical crown lengthening. The main question it aims to answer is if single dose antibiotics prior to surgical crown lengthening has any effects on the healing outcomes. Participants will be asked to take either - 2 g of amoxicillin + clavulanate, or - placebo, one hour prior to surgery and without knowing what medicine they took. Researchers will compare the wound healing and self-reported outcomes of the antibiotics group and placebo group.
