The research will make it possible to assess effects of rehabilitation of arm function with the use of biofeedback method and conventional therapies administered to patients at a chronic stage of recovery post-stroke, as part of the treatment in a health-resort setting.
The aim of this study is to test the feasibility and usability of the Convoy-Pal mobile intervention among older adults. The study is a pilot waitlist control RCT with 40 patients and their convoys randomized to one of two arms: Convoy-Pal intervention or waitlist control. Feasibility will be assessed by recruitment, attrition, and data collection on measures of quality of life and social support. Usability will be captured by self-report usability scales and actual back end utilization data.
- Describe the baseline and procedural characteristics of older patients undergoing PFO closure due to cryptogenic embolism. - Assess the long-term follow-up of this cohort, focusing on neurological events and their origin, major cardiac outcomes, as well as survival rates and death origin. - Seek for predictors of neurological event recurrence after the procedure.
The purpose of the study is to test if Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a behavioral intervention designed to increase psychological flexibility in the face of challenges, reduces anxiety associated psychological distress in dementia caregivers compared to the control group who will receive self-help and educational materials. This version of ACT is delivered over the phone in six primary sessions and one booster session.
Primary Objective: - Assess the efficacy of SAR443122 in cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) Secondary Objectives: - Assess the effect of SAR443122 on the physician's global assessment of disease activity (PhysGA - disease activity) - Assess the effect of SAR443122 on CLE induced itch and overall pain - Assess the effect of SAR443122 on the proportion of disease activity responders compared to placebo - Assess the effect of SAR443122 on the CLASI components score - Assess the effect of SAR443122 on the Investigator's global assessment for CLE (IGA-CLE) - Assess oral cavities for patients with oral lesions - Assess the disease specific quality of life (QoL) - Assess the safety and tolerability of SAR443122 in patients with CLE - Assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) exposure of SAR443122 in patients with CLE
Tobacco use is associated with high mortality, and a range of morbidities including cancer, and lung and cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, tobacco users who die prematurely deprive their families of income, raise the cost of health care and hinder economic development. India is the second-largest consumer (current use-48% males, 20% females; 275 million adults) and third largest producer of tobacco in the world5; and has one of the highest mortality related to tobacco. The treatment gap for tobacco use in India is as high as 92%. Opportunistic screening and brief interventions in primary care, although recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), is largely missing in current practice in India. The existing tobacco cessation strategy in India has shown limited success due to poor availability and accessibility of tobacco cessation services, and non-availability of interventions that are culturally relevant and contextual to the target population. Preliminary formative research as a part of the larger ToQuit study has informed the development of the first version of the treatment package. This first version of the package was tested through a case series, by refining the intervention content and delivery mechanisms through an iterative process, to develop the final intervention. This pilot Randomised Control Trial (RCT) will aim to empirically evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the mobile-based brief intervention (BI) for tobacco use, generate preliminary estimates of the impact of the BI, and fine-tune the procedures for a definitive RCT.
In upper extremity surgeries, the brachial plexus block can be performed with different techniques at various levels depending on the proximal and distal level of the surgery. As an alternative to the infraclavicular brachial plexus block, which has been used for many years and which we routinely perform to every pediatric patient under general anesthesia; Costoclavicular block is recommended due to its advantages such as short application time, single injection and sufficient ultrasound imaging, and its use is becoming widespread. There are studies comparing these two methods. However in this study, we aim to compare the postoperative analgesic effects of US-guided costoclavicular technique with US-guided supraclavicular technique, which is more common for many years and is performed 2-3 cm proximal to the costoclavicular block area. During the block application, the US imaging time, the difficulty level of needle imaging, the number of maneuvers required to reach the target image, whether additional maneuvers are required according to the local anesthetic distribution, the success of the block and the duration of the surgery, the total application time of the block and the duration of general anesthesia will be recorded. Mean arterial pressure and heart rate will be recorded at 30-minute intervals during the surgery. Standardized for pediatric patients The FLACC and Wong-Baker pain scores will be followed first 24 hours after surgery. The patient will be examined for pain, motor and sensation, and analgesic doses will be recorded if used. Time to first pain identification, duration of sleep, patient and surgeon satisfaction will be recorded. The rarely onset of hemidiaphragmatic paralysis during supraclavicular block reduces its use. Costoclavicular block could be a safe and effective alternative. One of our seconder objectives is to assess the incidence of hemidiaphragmatic paralysis following ultrasound-guided supraclavicular block and compare it to that of costoclavicular block. For this purpose diaphragmatic excursion is visualized by M-mode ultrasonography 30 minutes after extubation. In B-mode, the diaphragm thickness measurement at the end of expiratory and inspiratory end is recorded and the diaphragm thickness fraction is calculated. Absence of diaphragmatic excursion during a sniff test or sighing defined the hemidiaphragmatic paralysis.
The AMH^2 (Anti-Mullerian Hormone - At My Home) study is a head-to-head-to-head validation study aiming to evaluate the concordance of AMH levels found in blood collected via three different routes: collected at-home using the TAP II device, drawn through standard venipuncture techniques, and collected with the ADx card, another at-home collection device widely available on the market for commercial use.

The primary objectives of this trial are to investigate safety and tolerability of BI 1595043 in healthy male subjects following administration of multiple rising doses over 14 days. Secondary objectives are the exploration of pharmacokinetics (PK) of BI 1595043 after single and multiple dosing.
