The purpose of this study is to examine the separate and combined effects of a high-protein (HP) diet and resistance training (RT) on body composition and potential biological moderators of body weight in women and men >50y. All participants will receive dietary physical activity guidance through our group-based weight loss program, State of Slim (SOS). The SOS program will be delivered via the Zoom videoconferencing platform. These participants will be randomized to receive either a counseling-based HP diet plan or RT plan. Body composition assessments at 8 wk will identify responders and non-responders; the latter will be re-randomized to "augment" (HP: add protein supplements; RT: supervise RT) or "combine" (HP with protein supplements + supervised RT).
The aim of this observational study is to collect clinical and radiological results of the new Plasmafit® Revision Structan® Hip Endoprosthesis Cup in a standard patient population and when used in routine clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral etrasimod is a safe and effective treatment for moderately active ulcerative colitis in adult participants.
The purpose of this study is to determine if increasing awareness and, thus, enhancing positive attitudes about research, prior to recruitment attempts, will increase participation in cancer clinical research among African American (AA) cancer survivors so that recruitment efforts can focus on the most optimal and cost- effective approaches
The number of women diagnosed with uterine cancer continues to rise each year. Since the early 1990s, there has been almost 55% rise in the United Kingdom (UK). 34% of endometrial cancer can be attributed to obesity. In the obese state, the function of adipose tissue deteriorates resulting in a state of chronic inflammation. Adipocytokine-related signalling pathways promote cancer development by causing inflammation, cell proliferation, DNA damage and by inhibiting apoptosis. The investigators postulate that adipocytokines levels are significantly different in uterine cancer patients of different weight categories and different grade/stage/ type of tumour. Any woman attending the hospital with endometrial cancer and receiving treatment here will be invited to participate in the study. Consent will be sought to obtain 30mls (2 1/2 tablespoons) of venous blood at the time of surgery, on day 1 post-surgery and 3/6 months post-surgery during routine follow-up to check biomarker (adiponectin, leptin, tumour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, Insulin-like growth factors 1 and 2) levels to see if the markers can be used to assess response to treatment. The investigators will also get consent to collect tissue - adipose tissue (after surgery) and uterine cancer tissue and lymph nodes (after histo-pathological evaluation) to assess for biomarkers. The investigators will also obtain blood samples from patients undergoing chemotherapy for advanced stage endometrial. All tissues procured will be anonymised and analysed at the oncology laboratory, Leggett building, University of Surrey and later correlated with patients' medical data as well as with tumour grade, stage and type. The investigators will also use archival tissue blocks stored at the same laboratory for analysis (previously consented for use in research). These are anonymised tissue and there is no link to patients' data. The aim would be to ultimately find immuno-stimulatory/ suppressive biomarkers in order to develop novel diagnostic/ prognostic tools.
This study will be a prospective analysis conducted by Geneoscopy Inc. to evaluate the Colosense test, which is a multi-target stool RNA test for colorectal screening.
This is a single-arm, open-label study performed at our hospital, patients with progression hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) met inclusion criteria will be enrolled. Patients received oral lenvatinib 12mg/day (for patients≥60 kg) or 8 mg/day (for patients<60kg ) before local radiotherapy 8 weeks, large lesions were treated with IMRT for 40-60gy / 20-30f. Combined therapy will be taken until unacceptable treatment-related toxicities occurred or disease progression.
The study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HR021618 in the treatment of moderate to severe pain after abdominal surgery.
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to assess whether AI can improve the efficacy of mammography screening, by adapting single and double reading based on AI derived cancer-risk scores and to use AI as a decision support in the screen reading, compared with conventional mammography screening (double reading without AI).
The long-term goal of this study is to reduce suicidal thoughts and behaviors among treatment-seeking individuals who are experiencing suicidal thoughts or have recently made a suicide attempt. Brief cognitive behavioral therapies for suicide prevention (BCBT) has demonstrated empirical support for reducing suicide attempts as compared to treatment as usual. However, no studies to date have assessed their effectiveness when delivered via telehealth, highlighting an important knowledge gap in light of increased use of telehealth subsequent to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in the U.S. In light of this knowledge gap, the primary objective of this study will be to test the effectiveness of brief cognitive behavioral therapy (BCBT) as compared to present-centered therapy (PCT), an active comparator, for the reduction of suicide ideations and attempts when delivered via telehealth.
