A clinical study to assess the efficacy and safety of oral tafenoquine compared to placebo in patients with mild to moderate COVID 19 disease and low risk of disease progression (the "ACLR8-LR" study).
The goal of this observational study is detecting the dominant component of mixed urinary incontinence via a combined version of ICIQ-SF and quality of life scale. The main question it aims to answer is: 1. Which component (urgency or stress) urinary incontinence bothers the patient more?
It is common knowledge that music has a positive impact on human well-being. It is also well-known that medical residents are frequently stressed and burnt out. With these two thoughts in mind, the investigators want to explore how participating in a musical engagement program may positively impact medical resident well-being. The investigators hope to do this by hosting four informal musical engagement sessions with medical residents, which will involve playing instruments, improvising, and reading sheet music. To study the impact that this program has on participants, investigators will ask participants to complete a survey. The investigators hope to find that participants are positively impacted by participation in the study, in terms of factors like stress reduction and minimized burnout symptoms. Hopefully, the study results may inform residency program curriculum designers in the future may incorporate music into wellness programming.
Chemotherapy or target therapy-induced hand-foot syndrome in cancer patients affects the quality of life. At present, there is no better treatment for this side effect of chemotherapy or target therapy. In severe cases, it is necessary to reduce the dose of chemotherapy or target therapy, which may affect the progress and effect of chemotherapy. In recent years, acupuncture has been widely used for many side effects of chemotherapy, such as numbness of hands and feet, gastrointestinal discomfort, and dizziness. There have been many studies have proved to be effective, but quite few studies explored the acupuncture treatment improves the hand-foot syndrome caused by chemotherapy or target therapy in cancer patients. Therefore, the investigators expect to evaluate the efficacy of acupuncture, and applying acupuncture or laser acupuncture to improve hand-foot syndrome caused by chemotherapy or target therapy in cancer patients in the future.
Providing information to the patient before surgery has important effects on the patient's self-care skills regarding the treatment and care process, reducing stress and reducing fears in the postoperative period. The primary aim of this study was to examine the effect of preoperative education on kinesiophobia in patients undergoing total knee replacement surgery. In addition, preoperative anxiety levels, time of first postoperative mobilization, number of steps in the first 24 hours after mobilization and pain levels of the patients will be evaluated as secondary outcomes.
The aim of this study is; To Assess the association between periodontal health and Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) level in Gingival Crevicular Fluid (GCF) in post COVID-19 patients.
This study is a double blind comparative study examining the effectiveness of the transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation treatment on Parkinson's disease patients with anxiety. The investigators hypothesize that taVNS will improve anxiety and cortical activity in Parkinson's disease patients with anxiety.
Male factor infertility is a leading cause of primary and secondary infertility. Poor sperm quality is defined as having an abnormal semen analysis. There are now options to assess sperm quality with at-home sperm analysis kits, including an FDA approved Yo Sperm kit (https://yospermtest.com/) which analyzes the motile sperm concentration [concentration (millions / ml) x motility (Percentage motile)] and sperm quality (YO Score) which compares your results to laboratory standards and to other men who have fathered children. The effects of supplements (vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants) on improving sperm quality are still debated. Taking additional supplements to improve sperm quality represent a modifiable risk-factor that would be an easy intervention for patients struggling with male factor infertility. The life cycle of sperm production is estimated at 3 months, so any intervention would require a 3 month course to see its full effect. The investigators hypothesize that a 90 day course of the "Power Prenatal for Sperm", a male fertility supplement by Bird&Be (https://birdandbe.com/the-power-prenatal-for-sperm) will improve sperm quality (YO Score) after taking the supplements.
The current work aim to: Estimation of prevalence, Estimation of risk factors, Estimation of endoscopic picture of H. pylori infection in children presented with chronic or recurrent dyspeptic symptoms and/or non variceal hematemesis.
Adverse childhood experiences can have powerful effects on health and quality of life in adulthood. Thus, having a history of childhood trauma, before the age of 18 (physical aggression, sexual abuse, death of a close person, etc.) significantly increases the risk of having cancer, cardiovascular disease, psychological damage , or earlier mortality. Validated scores allow the evaluation of the importance of adverse childhood experiences, in particular the ACE score (adverse childhood experiences) published by Felitti. Studies on the subject show a dose-response relationship between exposure to adverse childhood experiences and negative outcomes in terms of health and well-being. The physiopathological tracks to explain the occurrence of somatic pathologies in adulthood include the observation of a state of hyper-activation of the HPA axis that persists in adulthood; modulations of immunity, but also epigenetic modifications. Some data are available on the associations between childhood trauma and obstetric risks, with a significant increase in the risk of preterm delivery and fetal death in utero. Primary objective : 1a) To study the prevalence of adverse childhood experiences (ACE) in women consulting for the first time in an PMA service for the desire to become pregnant, and 1b) To study the association between adverse childhood experiences and infertility in adulthood, by comparing infertile women with nulliparous control women in the general population consulting for their classic gynecological follow-up.
