Description of the phenomena "Slow Coronary Flow" (SCF), according to the data that has been collected from patients hospitalized with specific criteria. Clinical follow-up of these patients to determine whether they suffered from any cardial or psychological disorders that might be a result of SCF.
Paclitaxel is chemotherapeutic agent used in many of the most common anti-cancer regimens. Its use is frequently associated with moderate to severe muscle and joint pain that may persist for several days after the treatment. This side effect, known as "Arthralgia-Myalgia Syndrome, has a significant impact on the quality of life and functional abilities of those receiving the treatment, and is not alleviated by many of the interventions attempted for that purpose. Sporadic reports suggest that a drug called gabapentin may be effective in the management of this adverse effect. Observations from our practice indicate that pregabalin, which possesses similar biological activity to that of gabapentin, may also be useful in preventing and treating paclitaxel associated myalgia - arthralgia. The current study represents an initial evaluation of the hypothesis that pregabalin may be beneficial in the management of the symptoms due to the "Arthralgia-Myalgia Syndrome". The investigation will be carried out in the format of a small scale, randomized, placebo controlled trial with patients receiving paclitaxel in the course of standard treatment for breast cancer.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of ropivacaine and lidocaine irrigation at the surgical bed on postoperative pain relief and breathing parameters in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
The purpose of the study is to explore the effect of MPH on working memory, attention and decision making in adults with BD in remission or in depressed state. The results will be compared to findings in healthy adults and adults with ADHD. The investigators hypothesize that MPH will incur improved performance in all measures.
The aim of this study is to determine whether 9-cis-beta Caroten rich D. Brdawiil extract is effective in the treatment of retinitis pigmentosa in adolescent patients.
Background and Aims - H.pylori is a common human pathogen by which almost 50% of the world population is infected. According to the accepted guidelines, once H.pylori infection has been diagnosed,first line therapy with three drugs should be given. The triple treatment includes proton-pump-inhibitor-clarithromycin-amoxicillin but its eradication rate is only 70-80%. - Curcumin has many beneficial merits and it was also been demonstrated to be efficient in inhibition of H.pylori infection, in vitro.Therefore we aim to investigate whether addition of Curcumin to the standard triple therapy will increase the eradication rate of H.pylori infection. Methods - 150 consecutive patients that will undergo esophagogastroscopy in our Gastroenterology department and will be positive for H.pylori according to urease test and then by gastric biopsy, will be included. The patients will be randomized to two different treatments, according to binomial distribution. 75 patients will be treated with the standard triple therapy for 10 days and the other 75, will be treated for 10 days, with triple therapy combined with Curcumin that will be given three times a day. - During the treatment the patients will complete an adverse effect's questionnaires. 6 weeks after the completion of the treatment the patients will undergo urea breath test to confirm eradication. Patients will be asked to avoid antibiotics, bismuth compounds or proton-pump-inhibitor until the second urea-breath-test. - We will compare the eradication rate and the adverse effects between the two groups by using SPSS
Soldiers are required to perform and maintain alertness in difficult environmental conditions. The sensor examined in this trail may indicate body core temperature elevation during exertion. 12 male volunteers will arrive to our lab and perform a protocol of sitting and walking in thermoneutral and hot environments with two core temperature sensors. The results obtained from them will be compared.
The investigators believe that the local anesthetic EMLA (Lidocaine 2.5% and Prilocaine 2.5%) cream will lessen pain and reduce the need for anesthesia and analgesia, when implanting a permanent pacemaker.
Immature Platelet Fraction (IPF) is a new value in CBC blood tests Recent Studies showed that this value may be another prognostic factor in critically ill patients such as those admitted to ICU, or those with neutropenic Fever. The purpose of the study is to check if the IPF may be used as a prognostic Factor in these patients
