The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the efficacy of Closed-loop Functional Spinal Cord Stimulation on Walking Rehabilitation in Patients after Spinal Cord Injury
This is a two-group, parallel, randomized, standard-control phase II study comparing the safety and efficacy of immunotherapy versus standard chemotherapy in patients undergoing T4NX/TXN+ colon cancer surgery with MSI-H or POLE/ POLD1 mutations.This study was conducted in the Department of Gastroenterology, Tumor Hospital of Tianjin Medical University. Patients with MSI-H or POLE/ POLD1 gene mutations confirmed by PCR sequencing or NGS sequencing will be randomly assigned (2:1) to immunotherapy (experimental group) or standard chemotherapy (control group) after signing informed consent. In this study, 30 patients will be enrolled, 20 patients will receive immunotherapy and 10 patients will receive standard chemotherapy. In the immunotherapy group, the treatment regimen was Tirelizumab 200mg, intravenously infused once every 3 weeks until the end of 12 months of treatment, with a total of 17 infused times. Patients enrolled in this group could enjoy the preferential policy of purchasing 7 times and giving 10 times at their own expense. The chemotherapy regimen of the standard chemotherapy group was XELOX regimen, oxaliplatin 130mg/m2, d1, capecitabine 1000mg/m2, orally, bid (half an hour after breakfast and dinner), d1-14, every 21 days. The duration of treatment was determined according to the patient's postoperative pathological stage (3 months for T4N0/ T1-3N1 and 6 months for T4N+/ T1-3N2). Patients received regular and periodic reviews, with imaging evaluations every 3 months for the first 2 years and every 6 months after 2 years. Safety will be evaluated by AE and laboratory tests. After tumor recurrence or metastasis was first detected, tumor tissue biopsies were taken again for NGS sequencing, and all patients were followed up every 3 months until death according to the plan.
Objective to construct the related early activity program for patients with lumbar intraspinal tumor after hemilaminectomy, and evaluate the postoperative limb function exercise according to the content of the program. In order to improve the self-care ability and quality of life of patients, reduce postoperative complications, shorten the average length of stay, reduce hospitalization expenses and improve patient satisfaction. Objective to evaluate the efficacy and safety of establishing early activity program after hemilaminectomy for patients with lumbar intraspinal tumors
The characteristic of axial pain and EEG analysis of patients after laminoplasty
The cognitive impairment of Parkinson's disease is non amnestic, which is characterized by working memory impairment and executive dysfunction. The current drug therapy (such as levodopa, dopamine receptor agonists) and surgical treatment (such as deep brain electrical stimulation, thalamic lesion) not only can not effectively alleviate cognitive impairment, but also may aggravate cognitive and speech behavior abnormalities. This project will explore how dopamine regulates temporal working memory in human research by combining drug intervention, neuroimaging and cognitive tasks.
Calcific aortic stenosis (CAS) can cause severe adverse cardiac events, but there are currently no effective drugs that can prevent or delay the progression of the disease. In fact, aortic valve replacement remains the only treatment option. CAS has been shown to be associated with Lp(a), LDL-C and PCSK9. Several observational studies indicated that the use of statins to decrease LDL-C levels was associated with the reduced incidence of CAS, but no randomized controlled trials (RCTs) showd that statins had any benefit on the progression of CAS. This may be related to the limited reduction of LDL-C by statin therapy. The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors have emerged as a new lipid-lowering drug. On the basis of statin therapy, PCSK9 inhibitors can further reduce LDL-C and Lp(a) levels by 50% to 60% and 20% to 30%, respectively. Some studies reported that elevated plasma PCSK9 levels were related to CAS and PCSK9 R46L loss-of-function mutation was associated with lower rates of CAS, and importantly, some observational studies found that PCSK9 inhibitors could reduce the incidence of CAS. Our trial aims to investigate the effect of PCSK9 inhibitors on preventing or delaying the progression of CAS. A total of 160 patients with mild or moderate CAS or asymptomatic severe AS will be randomly assigned to receive either statins or PCSK9 inhibitors+statins. All patients will be followed for at least 2 years at 3, 6,9,12,15,18,21,24 months after randomization. Quality of life (EQ-5D-3L including the EUROQOL visual analogue scale) questionnaires were gathered during each visit. Echocardiography and computer tomography were performed and blood samples were withdrawn at baseline, at 2 years visit, and before withdrawal from the study. The primary endpoint is the average annual change in peak aortic jet velocity on echocardiography. The secondary endpoints include average annual change in aortic valve area on echocardiography, average annual change in aortic valve calcification score on cardiac non-contrast computer tomography, heart valve surgery, change in quality-of-life scores, and average annual change in aortic and coronary artery calcification. Safety endpoints include all-cause death and cardiovascular events. The results of this trial will provide a new idea for the treatment of patients with CAS.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy, safety and imaging outcomes between Anterior Controllable Antedisplacement and Fusion (ACAF) and Laminoplasty in the treatment of severe ossification of cervical posterior longitudinal ligament.
This is the first prospective randomized and controlled study on the efficacy and safety of TiLOOP® Bra mesh in patients with expander-implant breast reconstruction. The investigators hypothesize that incoporating TiLOOP Bra mesh with tissue expanders will reduce the rates of capsular contraction, improve the efficiency of expansion and provide better aesthetic result.
Given the role of IL-17 in the development of entheseal-driven pathology, a therapeutic strategy aimed at blocking IL-17 would be a logical option for the treatment of enthesitis in psoriatic arthritis patients. This study will be the first randomized trial of a biologic therapy in participants with psoriatic arthritis, using imaging test.
