Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to evaluate, retrospectively and prospectively, the effect of different hormonal and neuropeptide dysfunctions on the body composition of patients suffering from hypothalamic-pituitary pathologies, and to evaluate the potential beneficial effect of surgical and medical treatments with agonists and antagonists of hypothalamic neuropeptides, currently available, on the development and treatment of adiposity and negative cross-talk between adiposity and muscle/bone tissue
To explore the relationship between perioperative blood pressure and catecholamine concentrations in adrenal venous blood and peripheral venous blood in hypertensive patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) who underwent percutaneous selective adrenal artery embolization (SAAE). In order to elucidate the related phenomena and possible mechanisms of blood pressure fluctuations caused by SAAE treatment in hypertensive patients with PA.
LASN01 is a novel, fully human antibody directed against the human IL-11 receptor being developed for treatment of patients with thyroid eye disease (TED). The primary and secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of 2 dose levels of LASN01 administered IV in patients with TED.
The purpose of this study is to learn about: - how children stick to taking their injections - their experience with the study medicines (Ngenla and daily growth hormone) prescribed to children with low levels of growth hormone. This study is seeking participants who: - are being treated or are ready to start treatment with daily growth hormone or Ngenla. - use a sharps bin to collect used needles. The study medicines will be given as per regular care agreed with the doctor. The study will compare participant experiences to help us see: - the difference in how the participants stick to taking their daily growth hormone injections compared to participants using once weekly Ngenla. Participants will take part in this study for up to 14 months. During this time, they will have 3 study visits at the study clinic. The participants will use the HealthBeacon™ smart sharps bin for collecting the used needles or injections.
The overall study objective is to continue to assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of linsitinib in subjects who were enrolled in the prior VGN-TED-301 through Week 24. These subjects include VGN-TED-301 Week 24 proptosis non-responders or subjects who relapse during the Follow-Up Period of VGN-TED-301.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of Sogroya® in children with short stature due to growth hormone deficiency where epiphysial discs are not closed under real-world clinical practice in Japan. The study will last for about 1 year (at shortest) to 3 years (at longest) depending on when the participant takes part in the study. The participant will be asked to answer questionnaire(s) about how they feel about the growth hormone (GH) product treatment once during the study (at about 3 months after starting the Sogroya® treatment) and about 3 months after starting the Sogroya® treatment.
The investigators will conduct a trial to evaluate if an online training and support platform can help adults living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in their diabetes self-management. Investigators will compare a group that has access to the "Support" platform through their usual medical care to a group that accesses the platform independently. The first group will be recruited through four participating clinics in the province of Quebec (Canada). The second group will be composed of adults living with T1D across Canada. Participants will have access to the platform for 12 months and will be asked to complete online questionnaires at the beginning and after 6 and 12 months, and share their glucose reader data with the research team. A subgroup of participants as well as healthcare professionals from the four clinics will be invited to participate in an individual interview aiming to understand the barriers and facilitators of integration "Support" in clinical care.
The breath analysis (BreathSpec® device) data of all participants that were included into the VAARA study (NCT05771090) will be analysed, this includes data from up to 40 breath samples from each of the 10 participants who underwent 2 insulin-induced hypoglycaemic episodes during two visits. The primary objective is to find a possible association between volatile organic compounds (VOCs) measured by the BreathSpec® device and blood glucose. For this we will use descriptive statistics, correlation coefficients, as well as a Principal Component Analysis and a partial least squares discriminant analysis. Furthermore, the time lag between hypoglycaemia onset and change in VOCs will be quantified.
The goal of this observational study is to know the prevalence of PCOS among economically productive and reproductive age women from Medellín and the Valle de Aburrá, Colombia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the phenotypic distribution of PCOS detected in women seeking medical attention as a requirement for employment in Medellín and the Valle de Aburrá, Colombia? 2. What is the effect of environmental factors, such as geographical location and diet, and biological factors (such as obesity and ethnicity/race) on the prevalence and phenotype of PCOS in this populatión? Participants will undergo anthropometric measurements and physical examination for hirsutism, acne, alopecia, acanthosis nigricans, and thyroid enlargement. During the initial visit, a transvaginal or transabdominal pelvic ultrasonography will be performed. A sample of venous blood will be collected in plain tubes for serum cryopreservation and for immediate glucose estimation. Some participants will be rescheduled for a second evaluation visit for additional assessment when they have a possible PCOs.
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to examine how an online training and peer support platform could help the preparation to transition to adult care. Among 14-16 year old youth with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), the investigators aim to assess the effect of an online training and peer support platform (Support-t) integrated in usual care, compared with usual care on Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), adverse outcomes and psychosocial measures during the preparation for transition to adult care. The investigators will conduct a multi-site, parallel group, blinded (outcome assessors, data analysts), superiority RCT of adolescents with T1D (14-16 years of age) followed at one of 4 university teaching hospital-based pediatric diabetes clinics in the province of Quebec.
