There are about 36633 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in France. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The purpose of the study COVID-EP is to classify all the complications occurring after the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism in patients tested initially COVID-19 positive and negative by RT-PCR (on nasopharyngeal sample) during the peak of the pandemic in France (April 2020). The patients will be followed for 1 year in order to provide clinical and paraclinical data not yet published in the literature. In order to secondarily confirm the COVID-19 status of initially negative COVID-19 patients (by RT-PCR), a serology test will be performed. The collected complications will then be compared between each of the 3 following groups: [PCR-COVID 19-Neg & Sero-COVID 19-Neg] versus [PCR-COVID 19-Neg & Sero-COVID 19-Pos] versus [PCR-COVID 19-Pos].
Many central nervous system pathologies have an inflammatory component, often associated with an accumulation of disability and more severe tissue damage. In multiple sclerosis, the inflammatory process is in part characterized by the activation of microglia, an entity of the innate inflammatory system, as well as a breakdown of the blood-brain barrier. During inflammation, activated microglia may contain high levels of iron, characterizing its activated state.
The origin of knee osteoarthritis is multifactorial but the disease is strongly related to age. The pain and functional disability are the main reasons for consultation. Non-pharmaceutical treatment is always indicated. The rehabilitation will reduce the pain, maintain or partially recover the amplitude of the movements as well as fight against vicious analgesic attitudes and strengthen the muscles to stabilize the joints. A program of self-rehabilitation exercises performed at home may be prescribed to people with knee osteoarthritis. It must include exercises adapted to the patient's functional abilities and painful level and requires education to improve the patient's motivation to practice a regular exercise program. However, adherence to such exercises is low, and until 2016 there was no objective way to find out the reasons for patients' lack of adherence to self-workout programs. The EARS ("Exercise Adherence Rating Scale" or Adhesion to Physical Exercise Programs) is validated in 2016 and reliable to evaluate the physical activity of patients with low back pain. As far as we know, this questionnaire is the only one validated in the international literature, a validation for French patients is currently underway. We believe this tool can be used for patients with knee osteoarthritis after minor changes.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a scleral buckling surgical procedure performed on fellow eyes of patients with genetically confirmed Stickler syndrome can prevent the occurrence retinal detachment and/or severe vision loss of the study eye.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous systems that results in focal inflammatory lesions and then diffuse and degenerative inflammatory phenomena. It is considered to be the leading cause of non-traumatic disability in young adults. Cognitive impairment is a common and disabling part of MS. Studies carried out in the years 1990-2000 estimated their frequency to be between 40 and 60% of MS patients: they reflect the natural history of the disease. Effective treatments for the inflammatory component of the disease that are now available may have led to a reduction in their frequency. Cognitive disorders were identified at an early stage of the disease and affect certain areas preferentially: - The most common achievement is the reduction in the speed of information processing. It is present from the early stage of the disease. Progressive deterioration over time is observed, which is a prognostic factor for long-term cognitive decline. Long-term memory was impaired in 40-65% of patients in historical cohorts. More specifically, encoding and retrieval were affected, with storage and consolidation being preserved. - The attainment of executive functions is also common. - Phonemic and semantic fluency are also disturbed in MS patients. Among cognitive impairments, language impairment has been little studied in MS: in 2016 only 22 controlled studies were identified. The assessments carried out were most often partial, making it impossible to define the characteristics or to conclude that specific linguistic impairments are independent of other cognitive impairments. Finally, recent studies suggest that the frequency of language impairment in MS may be underestimated. Therefore, it seems important to assess the prevalence of language disorders in a large cohort of patients with RRMS or MS, and to characterize these disorders by identifying the linguistic processes involved and the brain substrates involved. This will make it possible to envisage the implementation of more systematic screening for language disorders in MS and to improve patient management, in particular by developing targeted rehabilitation protocols.
Retrospective study, including patients from january 2013 to december 2018, who were diagnosed with unexplained infertility : spontaneously ovulating women with normal pelvic ultrasound scan, patent tubes on hysterosalpingography and normal pelvic exam or pelvic MRI normal. Semen analyses were normal according to the World Health Organization criteria. Couples were referred for diagnostic laparoscopy and hysteroscopy. They were then addressed for spontaneous fertility or ART to conceive. The investigators would like to see how many surgeries were useful to assess a diagnostic, and if operating allows a satisfying pregnancy rate. The investigators would like to assess how many diagnosis was done after surgery and how many pregnancy were obtained. The investigators search other prognostic factors than age or parity.
The adult emergency service of the Nancy CHRU welcomes an average of 135 visits per day. Approximately 18% are patients over 75 years old, among them 45% go home at the end of their care. The mobile geriatric liaison team intervenes with these patients at the request of the emergency doctors before they return home in order to identify their fragility and implement appropriate measures. We wish to know the characteristics of these avoidable passages in order to propose preventive measures upstream of these passages. To do this, we need to know the characteristics of those patients with an avoidable passage.
This Phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate CC-220 alone, as well as in combination with an anti-CD20 mAb (rituximab or obinutuzumab) in subjects with relapsed or refractory (R/R) lymphoma. Subjects must have received at least 2 prior lines of therapy, and have at least one measurable lesion according to Lugano 2014 classification. Study will consist of two parts: Part 1 (Dose Escalation) which will be followed by Part 2 (Dose Expansion).
The proposed clinical study aims to validate the diagnostic performance, compared to a reference ECG, of the electrocardiographic function of the BPM Core developed by Withings for the automatic identification of atrial fibrillation (AF).
This study is aimed to develop and assess the validity of an algorithm for automated three-dimensional cephalometry.
