The objective of our study was to assess the effectiveness of our reference center since its constitution. In a retrospective cohort study, we compared the activity of our center, including the time elapsed between diagnosis and access to the center and the diagnostic delay of patients with fibrous dysplasia between two periods, 1996-2006 (before certification of our center) and 2007-2019 (after certification of our center).
In this study, BPH patients visited the institutions during the study period and the effectiveness and safety of the treatment of Tamsulosin(Hanmi Tams® Capsule) in real-practice. During the routine medical visit, according to the investigator's judgment, with diagnosis that the Tamsulosin prescription is appropriate, and after deciding to start treatment, patients with BPH who agreed to participate in the study were administered Tamsulosin. As this study is a non-interventional observational study, all subjects received prescriptions according to the routine treatment procedure, and there were no visits or procedures required according to the observational study protocol.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a frequent disease in aging men accompanied by bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). Open prostatectomy (OP) is still considered the first-line treatment for more than 80 ml prostate size. In this study, a mixed technique called transurethral bipolar enucleation and resection of the prostate (TBERP) was compared to the standard open prostatectomy.
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a congenital skeletal disorder with multiple complications such as bone pain, fractures, deformities and nerve compression. Few quantitative studies have demonstrated its physical, mental and social negative impacts on patients but none have qualitatively evaluated their global quality of life. Our hypothesis is that a better knowledge of the quality of life of FD patients should allow to target the actions to be implemented to improve patients'care. The main objective of this qualitative research is therefore to investigate the quality of life of FD patients through 2 approaches: a qualitative study with focus groups interviews addressing several themes: self-image, psychological and emotional well-being, difficulties and adaptative strategies; and a quantitative study to measure the impact of FD on quality of life and on olfaction (sometimes affected by nerve compression due to the disease) using standardized questionnaires Short Form 36 (SF36) and Self-reported Mini Olfactory Questionnaire (SELF-MOQ).
The aim of the study is to compare sleep efficiency by means of actigraphy in patients with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with healthy controls. Sleep efficiency, assessed on actigraphy, sleep architecture assessed on on polysomnography, body temperature and urine melatonin levels will be compared between the patients with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with healthy controls.
Postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) is the occurrence of vaginal bleeding 12 months following a woman's last menstrual cycle. PMB represents one of the most common reasons for referral to gynaecology services. Approximately 10% of women with PMB will be found to have endometrial cancer. The gold standard of investigation of PMB is ambulatory gynaecology through the outpatient hysteroscopy clinic, which is often combined with Pipelle biopsy for endometrial sampling. Up to 60% of women that present with PMB will have an atrophic-appearing cavity at hysteroscopy. This provides a challenge in obtaining a histological sample through both dilatation & curretage (D&C) and Pipelle biopsy. Often, scant tissue that is insufficient for clinical diagnosis is obtained. Pipelle biopsy is associated with patient discomfort. It is also associated with costs related to the purchasing of equipment and the processing of samples in the laboratory to the sum of approximately 30 euro per sample. It is rare that a sample taken from an atrophic cavity will return any clinically meaningful result. A negative hysteroscopy reduces the probability of endometrial cancer to 0.6%. This study aims to compare patients with PMB and atrophic-appearing cavity that undergo pipelle biopsy to those that do not. Differences in pain scores, cost saving and differences in clinical follow up will be assessed to evaluate the benefit of Pipelle biopsy in patients with PMB and atrophic-appearing cavity.
Purpose of this clinical phase 1 trial was to determine if para-chloro-2-[18F]fluoroethyletomidate positron emission computed tomography ([18F]CETO-positron emission computed tomography(PET)/computed tomography(CT)) can be used in diagnostics of adrenal tumors and if the biochemical/pharmacological states conditions in humans with various illnesses, compared to healthy humans, such as the radio tracer is suitable?
Patients who were using anticoagulant or antiaggregant medications for any reason and underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-BT) or transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or open prostatectomy (OP) due to BPH will be compared with those who were not using anticoagulant or antiplatelet medication. The rates of postoperative clot retention, presence of hematuria, reoperation due to hematuria, blood transfusion and re-admissions due to hematuria in the first postoperative month will be compared.
Short title REPORT-BPD feasibility study Design A mixed methods observational cohort feasibility study Study Setting Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust Aim To explore the feasibility of measuring the right ventricular function of the premature heart to develop a prediction model to identify early BronchoPulmonary Dysplasia in premature infants. Objectives 1. To assess the feasibility and acceptability of the study procedures e.g., recruitment, echo scans performance, data collection, storage, and analysis. 2. To identify the sensitive echo parameters in assessing the right ventricle function of the heart to be included in a prediction model to identify early BPD in premature infants. Study Participants Preterm infants born <32 weeks of gestational age, their parents and healthcare professionals involved in the care of the study's preterm infants. Sample size 40 preterm infants Follow-up Each preterm infant will be followed up till they are 36 weeks of post menstrual age (PMA) or until discharge home whichever comes first. Study Period 18 months Outcome Measures 1. Establishing sensitive and feasible echo parameters for detecting right ventricle dysfunction associated with early BPD pulmonary vascular changes. 2. Suitability of eligibility criteria and sample characteristics. 3. Fidelity to the study procedures such as recruitment, data collection including echo scans performance at the set time points. 4. Recruitment, accrual, and retention rates.
