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 anal complex fistula constitutes a challenge in proctologic surgery because of the of its therapeutic care complexity due to the frequency of recurrences and the necessity to protect the sphincter function. For several years,differents techniques were developed "said sphincter sparing techniques" to handle fistulas at risk on the anal continence. Recently there is one of them , named FiLAC using a clip system not yet evaluated. The purpose is to assess the success rate of his new surgery technique.
Preformed metal pediatric crowns (PPCm) are currently considered the best method of restoring Primary molars affected by severe carious lesions compared to restorations made with various restorative materials (amalgams, composites, CVI-based materials). Due to their unsightly appearance, denounced by many parents, more aesthetic zirconia (PPCz) preformed pediatric crowns have been recently marketed. In the absence of an evaluation of the latter, this multi-center split-mouth two-year randomized clinical trial (RCT) proposes to to investigate the effectiveness of PPCz for the management of dental caries or structural anomalies. More specifically, the primary objective of this RCT is to assess in primary molars the success of PPCz in comparison with PPCm. The control treatment will be PPCm since this is the standard crown option. One hundred children and one aged at least 4 years must be recruited in ninedepartments of Pediatric Dentistry in the university hospitals of Bordeaux, Lille, Nancy, Nantes, Nice, Paris 1&2, Strasbourg and Toulouse. They will be included if they have two similar primarymolars of the same arch (for example first right and left maxillary primary molars ) and equally affected, to be crowned. The two types of crowns to be used in the same child, PPCm(3M Espe) and PPCz(Ezpédo), will be affected by randomization using a computerized and centralized system: primary molars will first be allocated to PPCm and, one to two weeks later, the contralateral primary molar will be restored by PPCz. The children will be checked every 6 months for a period of 2 years after the placement of the two types of crowns . During these four control visits, primary and secondary outcomes will be assessed clinically and radiographically. The primary outcome is the success of the treatment defined by the absence of major failure. A composite measure of signs and symptoms leading to diagnosis of irreversible pulpitis or periradicular periodontitis will be used to define major failure (pain, pulp infection, dental abscess, periradicular pathology visible on radiograph). The secondary outcomes are parental and child satisfaction (size, form and color), retention and fracture of the PPC, the wear of the antagonist tooth, the gingival state near PPC using the indices Löe and Silness to record plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI) and depth of the pocket (DI) on the crowned tooth and the two adjacent ones. Each center has a trained and / or calibrated operator and evaluator.
This is a Phase 1/1b Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of AMG 596 monotherapy or in combination with AMG 404 in Subjects with Glioblastoma or Malignant Glioma Expressing Mutant Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Variant III (EGFRvIII). This is a first in human (FIH), open-label, sequential-dose-escalation study in subjects with EGFRvIII-positive glioblastoma or malignant glioma. This study will enroll 2 groups of subjects according to disease stage, recurrent disease (Group 1) and maintenance treatment after SoC in newly diagnosed disease (Group 2).
The main purpose of this study is the description of all French cases of PPBL and the establishment of minimal criteria for the pathology diagnosis and its follow-up. The secondary objective is the immunologic and genetic characterization of lymphoid cells causing the disease.
The aim of this study is to compare the value of multifrequency tympanometry between patients with surgical indication of treatment for a Chiari type I malformation and healthy volunteers.
The main purpose of this study is the comparison of frequency of vomiting episodes (number of episodes per year) observed during the year after the begin of Q10 coenzyme treatment to frequency observed during the year before the begin of this treatment in children with cyclic vomiting syndrome. Secondary purposes are the evaluation of life quality of parents and children, of treatment safety and its economic cost compared to other recommended treatments.
Close analysis of right ventricular function is still not done by all clinicians, even though it is indispensable; notably in cardiovascular ICUs. Right ventricular dysfunction is responsible for increased morbidity and marks a turning point in the patient's prognosis. It is difficult to analyse, and is principally assessed using echocardiography and by measuring the peak of the S' wave with pulsed Doppler and by measuring the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) in the TM mode. New studies have shown the interest of using 2D strain as a marker of systolic and diastolic function of the right ventricle. Finally, the use of 3D ultrasound seems to be more reliable than cardiac MRI for fine analysis of the right ventricle, even though it is rarely used in routine practice. Study of the right ventricle using ultrasonography alone requires experienced and available operators for closely repeated evaluations making it possible to detect right ventricle dysfunction quickly. US monitoring of left and right heart function is done systematically and repeatedly during post-operative care following heart surgery. This US evaluation could be optimized by finding a way to monitor the right ventricle continuously. From a physiological point of view, we know about the tight relationship between the aspect of the central venous pressure curve and more precisely the C-X segment (tricuspid bulging into the atrium and start of contraction of the right ventricle) and right ventricular function. We wish to analyse this segment, combined with a US evaluation, and to look for a possible correlation so as to allow continuous, easy-to-interpret monitoring of right ventricular systolic function. This will be facilitated by the systematic presence of a central venous catheter in every patient undergoing heart surgery, thus allowing central venous pressure to be monitored. To this end, we wish to collect different data from patients in the cardiovascular ICU, especially the central venous pressure curve, the ventilatory pressure curve and settings of the respirator, and to carry out an echography evaluation of each patient.
Introduction: Giant thoracic disc herniation is a rare condition for which surgical treatment is indicated when there are signs of spinal cord injury. To date, several surgical techniques have been described in the treatment of this condition on small patient series. The main objective is to evaluate the long-term results of a series of 53 patients treated with a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure. The secondary objective is to explain our pre-operative planning and the technical details of our procedure. METHOD: Retrospective monocentric study on a cohort of patients treated in our department. The following medical data from our database are analyzed: Morbidity of operative gesture (duration of procedure, bleeding, postoperative complications), clinical results at the last follow-up visit (thoracic Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score, Frankel score, parietal pain , ability to walk, wish to carry out the same intervention again if necessary). On the radiological level, we evaluated the quality of the resection (total, subtotal, incomplete and impossible), the reappearance of a border of cerebrospinal fluid perimedullary and the presence of an intramedullary T2 hyperintense signal MRI post- operative. All these data are collected and analyzed anonymously. Expected Results: We believe we can demonstrate that thoracoscopy is a valid therapeutic option in the treatment of thoracic disc herniation responsible for spinal cord compression. This with a low morbidity given the minimally invasive nature of the approach.
Pulmonary rehabilitation effectively improves outcomes in patients with chronic respiratory disease, however there is a lack of pulmonary rehabilitation centers. Telehealth technology is one solution to deliver supervised home-based rehabilitation (tele-rehabilitation). However, the feasibility and the acceptability of using telehealth technology to deliver tele-rehabilitation has not been assessed in a large scale multicenter study. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the feasibility and the acceptability of telemonitoring system during pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic respiratory disease.
There are no clear recommendations concerning the management of patients on ECLS (Extra-Corporeal Life Support). Many teams keep patients sedated until removal of the ECLS so as to avoid accidents, notably decannulation. Moreover, there are few publications on the subject, all the more so as the extubation of patients on ECLS (Extra-Corporeal Life Support) is a recent practice. Nonetheless, it is becoming more and more frequent in the cardiovascular ICU of Dijon University Hospital. We therefore wished to evaluate the benefits of this practice by comparing 2 populations: those with extubation while on ECLS (Extra-Corporeal Life Support) and those without.
