Filter by:Fibrous dysplasia of bone /McCune Albright syndrome (FD/MAS) is a rare bone disease caused by somatic mutations in GNAS gene. This GNAS mutation predisposes to cancers, including breast cancer, thyroid cancer, chondrosarcoma and osteosarcoma, as well as biliary tract anomalies, liver-tumors or pancreatic tumors - IPMNs. Intraductal papillary and mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas (IPMN) are cystic intraepithelial ductal lesions developed at the expense of pancreatic ducts. They are pre-cancerous lesions, requiring monitoring and, in case of progression or malignant degeneration, surgical resection. Pancreatic MRI screening of patients with polyostotic FD and MAS is recommended. The aim of this study is to investigate the epidemiology and characteristics of these hepato-pancreato-biliary abnormalities (prevalence, age of onset, degeneration), based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) realized during the follow-up of patients with FD/MAS treated in a French FD expert center. A better understanding of these IPMNs and other digestive abnormalities will enable clinicians to improve the management and monitoring in this high-risk population.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of stress ball application on the anxiety level during the endometrial biopsy procedure. This research is planned as a randomised controlled study. Place and time of the research: The research is planned with patients who will undergo endometrial biopsy procedure in Zonguldak Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital affiliated to the Ministry of Health. While there are various experimental studies in the literature on the effect of stress ball on anxiety during many painful procedures, there is no study in the literature on the effect of stress ball on anxiety level during endometrial biopsy procedure (Akarsu, Kuş & Akarsu 2021, Genç 2021Nurdina, Anggraini & Novyanda 2022, Srivarsan, Sridevi & Preetha 2021, Yanks et al. 2018,) In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of stress ball application on anxiety level during endometrial biopsy procedure
Exploring the efficacy and pregnancy outcomes of conservative treatment for atypical endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer. Study the factors related to predicting treatment efficacy.
Craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD) is a nonneoplastic disease characterized by fibro-osseous lesions in the affected bones. Treatment is mainly surgical and is stratified based on four different anatomical zones. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcomes and refine the algorithm for CFD.
Background: Men who are treated for prostate cancer often develop urinary leakage (incontinence). An experimental device that uses electrical impulses to stimulate pelvic floor muscles and surrounding tissues may help. Objective: To see if the Elidah device can reduce urinary incontinence after prostate treatment. Eligibility: Men aged 18 years and older who have had moderate urinary incontinence for at least 6 months after treatment for prostate cancer. Design: Participants will be in the study for about 9 weeks. They will be screened. They will have a physical exam with urine tests. The Elidah device consists of a Controller and a GelPad. The Controller sets the strength of electrical impulses. The GelPad is placed against the skin under the pelvis. Participants will be given an Elidah device and taught how to use it at home. They will use the device once a day for 20 minutes at a time; they will do this 5 days a week for 6 weeks. Participants will complete a daily log. They will record the strength of electrical impulses (0-35); the number of incontinence episodes; the type of incontinence episode; and the number of used pads. Participants will do a pad weight test. For 3 days before and 3 days after using the Elidah device, they will collect all of their used pads for each 24-hour period into a sealed plastic bag. They will also collect a second set of bags that contain dry versions of each product used. Participants will have clinic visits after using the device for 3 weeks and after finishing the 6 weeks of treatment. Participants will complete 15-minute questionnaires.
To evaluate postoperative outcomes of BPH/Lower urinary tract symptoms, erectile function, and ejaculatory capacity of simultaneous UroLiftTM and Holmium laser enucleation of the prostatic median lobe.
Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a rare genetic endocrine disorder. Its prevalence is around 1/15.000. It results from a deficiency in 21-hydroxylase, an adrenal steroidogenic enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of cortisol and aldosterone. Enzyme deficiency in the steroideogenesis pathway leads to cortisol and aldosterone deficiency of varying severity, and to the accumulation of precursors (17OHP and Progesterone), which are diverted to the production of androgens (Testosterone and D4AD). There are two clinical forms of classical CAH : the salt wasting form and the simple virilizing form, depending on the degree of aldosterone deficiency. The clinical signs are adrenal insufficiency and hyperandrogenism. Hyperandrogenism manifests itself during foetal life, and may be responsible for virilization of the external genitalia of a female foetus, of varying severity. The challenge in managing this condition is to find the right therapeutic balance. Hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone supplementation must be adapted to control adrenal insufficiency, and limit hyperandrogenism. It must be sufficient to avoid episodes of acute adrenal insufficiency, but not excessive to avoid complications secondary to hypercorticism. During childhood, this balance is necessary for growth and pubertal development. However, this balance is difficult to achieve and maintain over time. In adulthood, the fertility of patients is an important issue. This one remains poorly understood. It was only after the introduction of cortisol supplementation in the treatment of CAH in the 1950s that the first pregnancies were described. Since when, due to the rarity of the pathology, the number of pregnancies studied has remained low, and the literature has little hindsight on the subject. This pathology has long been associated with female infertility, due to many factors : biological, mechanical, psychological and sexual, among others. Biological hyperandrogenism may be responsible for chronic dysovulation, and may render the endometrium unsuitable for embryonic implantation. The virilization of the external genitalia and possible complications of pelvic surgery can be an obstacle to sexuality in these patients. They experience sexual difficulties, particularly during penetrative intercourse. The literature also shows that the majority of these patients are single and that their sexual orientation is more likely to be homosexual. Finally, the desire to have children is less prevalent in these patients than in the general population. The first published studies on the fertility of CAH patients showed a lower pregnancy rate than the general population, but did not take into account the patient' desire to become pregnant. In 2009, Casteras et al demonstrated for the first time in a cohort of CAH patients that fecundity is preserved in patients with a desire to become pregnant. It should be noted that the fertility of patients with CAH may evolve in the coming years in France thanks to the new bioethics law voted in 2021, which now allows unmarried patients and patients in homosexual couples to have access to male gamete donation. In addition, very little is known about the course of pregnancies in patients with CAH. Few pregnancies have been studied to date. Hormonal balance during pregnancy if difficult to monitor, given the absence of reliable biological makers during this period. In this context, it is complicated to know the impact of the pathology and its balance on the course of the pregnancy. The latest articles published on the subject of pregnancy complications are contradictory. Some find an increased risk of gestational diabetes. Others find a higher risk of maternal-fetal infection, low weight for gestational age, or congenital malformations than in general population. The increased risk of miscarriage is debated. On the other hand, articles are unanimous on the most frequent mode of delivery in this population : in the vast majority of cases, patients give birth by ceasarian section, due to their history of pelvic surgery. It is in context that we wish through this study to make a point of fertility and pregnancy in patients with classical CAH.
The study aims to compare the effect of two different classes of anti- diabetes medications on prostate volume and symptoms in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus
