An observational, non-interventional, prospective and multicenter study of Azacitidine in newly diagnosed High Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes. Primary objectives are to asses mutational status of target genes by Next Generation Sequencing, to evaluate prognostic value of geriatric assessment scales and to evaluate overall survival. The main hypothesis is that mutation status of target genes and geriatric scales have statistical significant impact on overall survival. Study time points will be at diagnosis, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months, always taking into account the routine clinical practice, when sample to assess mutational status will be collected. Geriatric assessment will only be performed at diagnosis. Upon the signature of informed consent and the checking of inclusion criteria, patients will receive treatment with Azacitidine 75 mg/sqm on a 28 days based cycles (both 7-0-0 and 5-0-2 regimens are allowed) until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or investigator decision. 150 patients are expected to be recruited at study sites.

DESIGN: single blind clinical trial in parallel groups, single blind clinical trial. 3. POPULATION of this study are patients who initiate weaning for ventilation mechanics.
Fibrotic tissue is known to be the substrate for the appearance of scar-related reentrant ventricular arrhythmias (VA) in chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM). Late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) has proven to be a useful technique in the non-invasive characterization of the scarred tissue and the underlying arrhythmogenic substrate. Previous studies identified the presence of significant scarring (> 5% of the left ventricular -LV- mass) is an independent predictor of adverse outcome (all-cause mortality or appropriate ICD discharge for ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation) in patients being considered for implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placement. Parallelly, the presence of heterogeneous tissue channels, which correlate with voltage channels after endocardial voltage mapping of the scar, can be more frequently observed in patients suffering from sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardias (SMVT) than in matched controls for age, sex, infarct location, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, the lack of solid evidence and randomized trials make LVEF still the main decision parameter when assessing suitability for ICD implantation in primary prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD). In a recent, case-control study, we identified the border zone channel (BZC) mass as the only independent predictor for VT occurrence, after matching for age, sex, LVEF and total scar mass. This BZC mass can be automatically calculated using a commercially available, post-processing imaging platform named ADAS 3D LV (ADAS3D Medical, Barcelona, Spain), with FDA 510(k) Clearance and European Community Mark approval. Thus, CMR-derived BZC mass might be used as an automatically reproducible criterium to reclassify those patients with chronic ICM at highest risk for developing VA/SCD in a relatively short period of approx. 2 years. In the present cohort study, we sought to evaluate the usefulness of the BZC mass measurement to predict the occurrence of VT events in a prospective, multicenter, unselected series of consecutive chronic ischemic patients without previous arrhythmia evidence, irrespectively of their LVEF.
Background: Colorectal cancer is the most frequent neoplasm and the second cause of cancer death in Spain. Colon cleansing is critical for visualization of lesions at colonoscopy. High-quality cleansing allows for correct detection and resection of all lesions and may contribute to adequate risk stratification and follow-up interval. Low-volume laxatives improve tolerance of the colonoscopy preparation without reducing its effectiveness. Currently, the most widely used low-volume laxatives are one liter of Polyethylene glycol + ascorbate (PEG1A) and sodium picosulfate + magnesium citrate (PSCM). The evidence on the comparison of laxatives to achieve a high-quality colonic cleansing is very scarce. Hypothesis: Polyethylene glycol 1 liter with ascorbate is superior to sodium picosulfate and magnesium citrate in high-quality colon cleansing. Objective: Overall objective: To compare the global high-quality cleansing frequency between the two laxatives using the Harefield Scale (HS). The primary objective is to demonstrate non-inferiority in global high-quality cleansing of PEG1A compared to PSCM. If non-inferiority is demonstrated, superiority of PEG1A will be analyzed. Specific objectives: - Frequency of global high-quality cleansing using the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS). - Frequency of adequate-quality cleansing using the HS and BBPS scales. - Tolerance and adverse effects of both laxatives. - Detection of lesions, total adenomas, advanced adenomas, total serrated lesions, advanced serrated lesions and colorectal cancer. - Detection of neoplastic lesions in the different colon segments (proximal, transverse, descending, sigmoid and rectum). - Association between detected lesions and the quality of the preparation, according to the HS and BBPS scales. Methods: Phase 4, multi-centric, randomized, single-blind (endoscopist), parallel study with two treatment arms: PEG1A (Pleinvue®) and PSCM (Citrafleet®).
The main objective is to evaluate the success / failure rate of CeraRoot ceramic implants (one piece) during five year follow up.
Longitudinal prospective study in pregnant women withpositive serology or PCR for SARS-CoV-2 and indicationinvasive technique (amniocentesis or chorionic biopsy) that has the objective to evaluate the possible vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2in the amniotic fluid or chorionic villi of pregnant women affected by coronavirus in the different periods of gestation.
The current project is a randomized controlled multi-centre clinical trial, in a cohort of children aged 3 to 6 years at baseline and being at obesity risk. The main objective consists on assessing the efficacy of an intervention during early childhood, considering a healthy lifestyle based on the promotion of a Mediterranean dietary pattern and regular physical activity, compared with a control group, on decreasing obesity incidence 5 and 10 years after the beginning of the intervention. It is envisaged to include 738 children, aged 3 to 6 years, having at baseline a body mass index (BMI) < than the equivalent to 30 kg/m2 in adults, and at least one parent having a BMI > 25 kg/m2. The clinical trial will have two arms and will be performed in Primary Health centres in 3 cities: Córdoba, Santiago de Compostela and Zaragoza. The control group will receive usual care by healthcare professionals. The intervention group, will receive education on Mediterranean lifestyle (Mediterranean diet and physical activity promotion), combined with the provision of extra-virgin olive oil and fish, in order to be consumed at least 3 times per week. Physical activity sessions with a physical activity monitor will also be offered for free to the children (2 sessions of 60 minutes of moderate-vigorous physical activity, per week). The participants' degree of compliance with the intervention will be periodically monitored. The main outcome is the incidence of obesity and the secondary outcomes are changes in body composition, physical fitness and cardiovascular risk factors. We are targeting for a 10 year follow-up.

Rationale: Permanent cardiac pacing is the only available therapy in patients with atrioventricular (AV) conduction disorders and can be life-saving. Right ventricular pacing (RVP), the routine clinical practice for decades in these patients, is non-physiologic, leads to dyssynchronous electrical and mechanical activation of the ventricles, and may cause pacing-induced cardiomyopathy and heart failure. Left ventricular septal pacing (LVSP) is an emerging form of physiologic pacing that can possibly overcome the adverse effects of RVP. Study design and hypotheses: The LEAP trial is a multi-center investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized controlled, open label, blinded endpoint evaluation (PROBE) study that compares LVSP with conventional RVP. A total of four hundred seventy patients with a class I or IIa indication for pacemaker implantation due to AV conduction disorders and an expected ventricular pacing percentage >20% will be randomized 1:1 to LVSP or RVP. The primary endpoint is a composite endpoint of all-cause mortality, hospitalization for heart failure and a more than 10% decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in absolute terms leading to a LVEF below 50% at one year follow-up. LVSP is anticipated to result in improved outcomes. Secondary objectives are to evaluate whether LVSP is cost-effective and associated with an improved quality of life (QOL) as compared to RVP. Quality of life is expected to improve with LVSP and reduced healthcare resource utilizations are expected to ensure lower costs in the LVSP group during follow-up, despite initial higher costs of the implantation. Study design: Multi-center investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized controlled, open label, blinded endpoint evaluation (PROBE) study. Study population: Adult patients with a bradycardia-pacing indication because of AV conduction disorders with an expected ventricular pacing percentage of ≥ 20% and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >/= 40%. Four hundred seventy patients will be randomized 1:1 to LVSP or RVP. Intervention: LVSP vs RVP. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint is a composite of all-cause mortality, hospitalization for heart failure, and a more than 10% point decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) leading to an LVEF below 50%, which as a binary combined endpoint will be determined at one year follow-up. Secondary endpoints are: - Time to first occurrence of all cause mortality or hospitalization for heart failure. - Time to first occurrence of all cause mortality. - Time to first occurrence of hospitalization for heart failure. - Time to first occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) de novo. - The echocardiographic changes in LVEF at one year. - The echocardiographic changes in diastolic (dys-)function at one year. - The occurrence of pacemaker related complications. - Quality of life (QOL), cost-effectiveness analyses (CEA) and budget impact analysis (BIA). The secondary endpoints (other than echocardiographic LVEF change) will be determined at the end of the follow-up period, when the last included patient has reached one year follow-up. The individual follow-up time for patients at this time point will vary with a minimum of one year.
