The aim of this study is to offer a 75g postpartum glucose tolerance test to women with minor degrees of glucose intolerance and to assess if these women are significantly different from women who were diagnosed as GDM (Gestational Diabetes Mellitus)
Introduction Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a chronic autoimmune disease of unknown etiology, .If not managed early , RA can result in irreversible, painful, and disabling joint damage. RA is often diagnosed using predefined criteria that necessitate clinical, laboratory, and radiologic examinations. The prevalence of RA among adults is approximately 1-2% affecting women two to four times more often than men.Although RA risk increases with age, it can manifest at any stage of life, including childhood, adolescence, and adulthood.(1-4)( Karlson EW, Mandl LA, Hankinson SE, Grodstein F, Karlson EW, Mandl LA, Hankinson SE, Grodstein F., Karlson EW, Mandl LA, Hankinson SE, Grodstein F, Karlson EW, Mandl LA, Hankinson SE, Grodstein F) To date, a limited number of RA risk or protective factors have been identified, with genetic predisposition to autoimmune response (eg, HLA-DR4 gene) and repeated environmental exposures (eg, tobacco smoke) playing a major role.(3)(Karlson EW, Mandl LA, Hankinson SE, Grodstein F) Heritability of RA is well-established because the lifetime risk of RA and related autoimmune diseases (namely, systemic lupus erythematosus, ankylosing spondylitis, scleroderma, Sjo¨gren's syndrome, and hypothyroidism) increases 1.5 to 3 times in children of women diagnosed with RA.
Principal Investigator: Sheldon Feldman, MD Co-Principal Investigator: Mohamad Sebai, MD Department of Surgery, Montefiore Medical Center - Einstein College of Medicine Title Pilot Study: Post-operative outcomes of enhanced energy delivery dissection for mastectomy breast flap creation with immediate breast reconstruction Goal Determine the feasibility of a study design that includes the evaluation of breast flap viability, postoperative surgical site drainage, post-operative pain/surgical site complications, time to complete mastectomy with Photonblade (PB) vs traditional electrosurgery devices. Overall outcome If determined feasible, consider going to clinical trial. Timing 6 months starting after execution of contract Study population Women between 18-65 years old Choose bilateral mastectomy followed by immediate breast reconstruction (through tissue expander insertion) No inflammatory breast cancer/no radiotherapy Study design Single blinded, randomized controlled pilot study (n=15) Only breast surgeon knows which device was used for each breast Study feasibility endpoints Flap Viability - compare perfusion, using PhotonVue, of flaps creation using PB vs Bovie (left is better, right is better or they are similar) Site drainage - Measure drainage volume and duration Pain scores and complications - Subjective pain assessment on days 1, 2, 3, 7 and 30 post-op. (Pain visual Analog Scale). Surgical site complications will be recorded up to 30-days post-op. Time to completion of mastectomy flap using PB vs Bovie will be recorded. (Time in minutes between initial incision and completion of mastectomy for each side) Analysis Descriptive analysis will be performed to examine data distribution, missing data and data errors. Continuous variables will be summarized using means or medians; categorical variables will be summarized using proportions. CLINICAL TRIAL Objectives Determine if post-op flap viability differs between women getting mastectomy flap creation using PB vs Bovie Determine if post-op site drainage measures differs between two devices Determine if post-op pain measures differ when using PB vs Bovie Determine if time to mastectomy flap creation differs between using Bovie and PB
The sporty performance exhibited by an athlete faces physiological, biomechanical and psychological activity of the athlete. It depends on both the psychological state and the elevation of the musculoskeletal system to a certain level so that the athlete can perform optimally and excellently. For this reason, we aimed to evaluate the musculoskeletal system pain of amateur and professional athletes in different disciplines and the psychosocial states such as sports confidence, depression and quality of life.
Effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on uterine scar fibrosis, endometrial receptivity and pregnancy outcome in patients with severe intrauterine adhesions
The change of glycemic variation and insulin dose after adding SGLT2 inhibitor in type 2 diabetic patients treated with basal insulin was observed in a single center.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib plus EGFR-TKI as first line treatment in patients with non-squamous NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation.
Non-small cell lung cancer has the highest morbidity and mortality in China，and platinum-based chemotherapy is the standard first-line treatment for the wild-type NSCLC,however the overall survival still less than one year.Anlotinib is a kinase inhibitor of receptor tyrosine with multi-targets, especially for VEGFR2、VEGFR3、PDGFRβ and c-Kit, which has strong effect of anti-angiogenesis.This study is aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination regimen of anlotinib plus platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment for NSCLC.
Aims： 1. Conduct multi-center, prospective and open research on liver quality assessment and establish LSCM liver quality assessment system 2. Classification of liver quality grades by LSCM for different pathological conditions (steatosis, fibrosis, hepatocyte necrosis, etc.) 3. Compare the specificity and sensitivity of LSCM evaluation results with the results of liver donor quality evaluation and intraoperative pathological biopsy results. 4. LSCM classifies the quality of donor liver and compares the recovery of liver function on the first day after liver transplantation. 5. LSCM grades the quality of donor liver and compares the long-term prognosis
This is an open-label study to evaluate the safety and the anti-tumor activity of the combination of nivolumab and celecoxib. The total numbers of participants to be enrolled will be up to 68 participants, depending on the investigated dose of celecoxib during the safety run-in phase.
