Filter by:The aim of the project is to assess the associations between biomarkers of acrylamide and glycidol exposure and disease outcomes in a case-cohort study based on two prospective cohorts with biobanks. The investigators also aim to assess the exposure-affected OMICS signatures and molecular pathways underlying disease development (specifically cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke and cancer such as breast-, endometrial and colorectal cancer) for these exposures along with persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and per- and polyflouroalkyl substances (PFAS) using a prospective cohort study utilizing and integrating various 'OMICs' technologies.
The aim of the present pilot study is to investigate the acceptance, feasibility and implementation of the vagus nerv stimulation in Long COVID patients. Additionally, the effects on parameters of the autonomic nervous system as well as on symptoms of Long COVID will be described in a pre/post comparison. For this purpose, a total of 45 female Long COVID patients will participate in the randomized controlled pilot study. Patients will perform auricular vagus stimulation daily for 12 weeks. The patient collective will be randomized into three groups (A: 10 hertz, B: 25 hertz, C: 2 hertz=control group). If appropriate results are obtained, further adequately powered intervention studies are planned.
The primary objective of this study is to collect whole blood from patients diagnosed with Glycogen storage disease type 1B, which will be used to support the investigation of potential therapies that address the genetic basis of this disease.
The goal of this Natural History Study for Charcot-Marie-Tooth is to acquire, record, and analyze patient-reported data and associated genetic reports, Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and clinical notes to identify the burden, diagnostic journey, and prevalence of disease that will aid scientists in their work toward finding a cure. Participants will be asked to complete a Natural History Survey.
To determine the effect of Pycnogenol® versus placebo on patient-reported health status in people with post COVID-19 condition.
To evaluate the validity of lung ultrasound compared to CT chest and chest radiograph for diagnosis of ARDS and prediction of successful weaning from mechanical ventilation in those patients compared to traditional methods.
Autistic patients have higher chances commorbid somatic symptoms. Therefore, it leads to more health-related concerns, such as autoimmune disease, gastrointestinal disease, cardiovascular disease, autonomic disorders. On average, autistic patient's life span is 16 years shorter than non-autistic patients. Furthermore, autistic patients are not able to convey or communicate their somatic symptoms in a clear and comprehensive manner. This leads to unable to receive proper health care in a timely manner.
This study aims to collect serum samples from healthy non-pregnant women, pregnant women with and without Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM). We will analyze the metabolite changes among the three groups using clinical metabolomics and identify potential biomarkers and metabolic pathways. This study will provide scientific evidence for early clinical diagnosis, prevention, control, and treatment research of GDM.
Clinical study participation percentages haven't always been fully representative of a given demographic. The goal is to find out which aspects of a clinical trial may make it more difficult for patients to take part or see it through. The data will be evaluated through different demographic lenses and identify trends that could help improve the experience of future substance abuse disorder patients during clinical trials.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common co-morbidity with bipolar I disorder, a comorbidity that is known to increase suicide risk. This study aimed to assess the presence of OCD in youth diagnosed with bipolar I disorder & to evaluate the association between OCD and suicide in the same cohort. Eighty subjects diagnosed with bipolar I disorder were enrolled in this study, subjects were divided according to the presence or absence of OCD to Group A: Bipolar disorder patients with OCD (n = 26), Group B: Bipolar disorder patients without OCD (n = 54). The following scales were applied: Dimensional Yale-Brown obsessive compulsive scale (DYBOCS)- Beck scale for Suicidal ideations (BSSI) - Hamilton depression rating scale (HDRS) and Young mania rating scale (YMRS). The results revealed that DYBOCS score of group A was 30.23±0.43, & of group B was 18.50±1.88 with a significant difference (p<0.01). There was a significantpositive correlation between BSSI and age, age of onset and YMRS in Group A (p<0.01). The study demonstrated that OCD is a common comorbidity in youth with bipolar I disorder and may be associated with a greater risk of suicide than in youth with bipolar I disorder without co-morbid OCD. Furthermore, co-morbidity of OCD with bipolar I disorder in youth may be associated with younger age of onset and more severe symptoms profile.
