Filter by:The aim of the EUS registry is to record information about Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) on the management of gastrointestinal disease. The registry will evaluate efficacy, safety and technical success of the Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS). Design is retrospective and prospective registry study.
The purpose of this study is to I. determine several skin parameters, for example natural moisturizing factor (NMF) and cholesterol, with Raman spectroscopy in vivo and II. compare the results with the corresponding cholesterol levels measured in venous blood.
The scientific approach of this project proposes to build a cohort of "psychological injuries" post-attack of 13 November 2015. This is called patients "involved", ie patients who directly witnessed the events and having the most either came under automatic gunfire or were close to an explosion, whether or not physically injured. The main objective is to define and validate a model of transition from acute stress disorder (ASD) to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for better detection of the risk of unfavorable and thus better patient supported. The first step is to determine independent risk factors found in analytic prospective cohort study. Bayesian models are well suited to exercise because they can integrate (i) the context related to the patient, (ii) the context related to the trauma itself, and (iii) the immediate reactions and long-term to the latter . They are particularly suited to understanding the brain disordered by saying down information (prior probability) wrong by improper memory of the traumatic event. The confrontation of these descending information and perceived bottom-information could be partly responsible for the symptoms of PTSD. Once validated, the model will characterize the individual level the most at risk of unfavorable patients (calculating a probability of developing PTSD) and to assess the epidemiological impact on long-term cohort of event considered. These determinations are necessary prerequisites to optimize the means of support for these current and future casualties. The investigators main objective is to define a Bayesian model describing a resilient functioning facing a trauma which also allows to describe a possible evolution of the ASD to PTSD by an error. The state of PTSD or not will be determined by the PCL-S scale.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether clonazepam and paroxetine are effective in the treatment of panic disorder. Efficacy was evaluated in short-term, long-term and post-treatment.
Devic's neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is rare. Epidemiological and demographic data are poor, based mainly on monocentric cohorts. Moreover, NMO might be difficult to distinguish from multiple sclerosis and begin with atypical or incomplete clinical presentations. Therefore, NMO is still underdiagnosed. The constitution of a nationwide and prospective cohort, including not only NMO but also clinical syndromes suggestive of a first episode (DNMO-spectrum disorders (SDs)), should allow to gather a critical mass of cases and answer questions that could not have been addressed at the level of a single centre. Objectives: The main objective is to describe the clinical, radiological and biological features of NMO spectrum disorder (NMO, isolated longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM), relapsing or not; isolated atypical optic neuritis (ON)) and their evolution. The second aim is to create a biobank dedicated to NMO (serum, whole blood for RNA and DNA extraction, cerebrospinal fluid), to promote translational research in the field. Methods: NOMADMUS is a prospective, multicentre, observational study of patients NMOSD and related disorder in France. Prevalent cases are included retrospectively and then followed prospectively. Incident cases are included from disease onset and followed prospectively. A minimal set of data has been defined and synthesized on specific paper forms derived from the European database for multiple sclerosis (EDMUS) forms. Patients are systematically tested regarding their AQP4-IgG and MOG-IgG status. All the data are centralised in a EDMUS-derived database in Lyon, the EDEN software. All cases are validated and classified by an expert committee.
Teens with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) have high rates of negative driving outcomes, including motor vehicle crashes, which may be caused by visual inattention (i.e., looking away from the roadway to perform secondary tasks). A driving intervention that trains teens to reduce instances of looking away from the roadway will be tested in teens with ADHD.
The prevalence of malnutrition in hospital is very high (30 percent) with major consequences in terms of morbidity and mortality, generating significant health care costs. The positive impact of its support is demonstrated. The HAS (French High Sanitary Authority) recommends a screening of all adult hospitalized in the first 48 hours, with no consensus regarding the organization of screening within care services. Various strategies have been implemented. Although this screening is part of the nursing role, old and recent studies show that it is not done systematically and nutritional disorders are largely under-diagnosed and therefore untreated. The investigators assume that an organization of screening for eating disorders, based on a caregiver dedicated to this activity, improves the indicator IPAQSS (Indicateurs Pour l'Amélioration de la Qualité et de la Sécurité des Soins) which is an indicator for the improvement of the quality and security of care) Screening indicator of nutritional disorders Level 3, compared to an organization "classic" involving the care teams in their entirety. This indicator reflects the care system performance. In this study, patients will have no intervention. Only the organization of the care staff will be adapted but with no changes on the care of patients?
This study proposes to use quetiapine as an adjunct treatment to treatment as usual to improve both substance use disorder (SUD) and mood symptoms in youth with SUD and severe mood dysregulation (SMD). This is a randomized, double blind placebo controlled parallel design study. Youth with symptoms of mood dysregulation and active substance use that meets criteria for a SUD will be randomized to adjunct treatment with quetiapine or placebo. The investigators hypothesize that treatment with quetiapine will lead to a reduction in substance use, improvement in mood, and lead to greater engagement in outpatient treatment.
The overall aim of this study is to test the effect of academic detailing (i.e. provider-level educational intervention focused on evidence-based smoking cessation treatment for those with psychiatric illness) and community health worker (CHW) support on the provision and utilization of standard of care smoking cessation treatment to those with serious mental illness (SMI) and smoking cessation rates for adults with SMI who smoke.
The purpose of this study is to identify association between cerebrospinal fluid Alzheimer's Disease's neurodegenerescence biomarkers (tau, ptau, Aß40 and Aß1-42) and occurrence of cognitive deficits in older patients with bipolar disorders.
