Filter by:The main purpose is to describe clinical practices nowadays prospectively about patients with a dysplasia diagnosis or another histological lesions. It will be identified colic situation during the initial colonoscopy after dysplasia diagnosis or atypical lesion. Also the frequency and the type of monitoring conducted about these patients(surgical and endoscopic treatments). The main criterion evaluation will be the surgical and endoscopic rates during the time. The treatments offered such as surgical, endoscopic ones or none of them will be followed. Finally, the outcome of these patients: stability, lesion disappearance, surgery or development of cancer with frequencies for each of them and relationships with histological abnormal colorectal lesion will be measured.
Treatment with glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids has changed congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) from a fatal to a chronic lifelong disease. Long-term treatment, in particular the chronic (over-)treatment with glucocorticoids, may have an adverse effect on the cardiovascular risk profile in adult CAH patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cardiovascular risk profile of adult CAH patients.
Bone pain due to fibrous dysplasia of bone is usually treated with bisphosphonates. A small proportion of patients fail to respond adequately. Mutated bone cells produce large amounts of Interleukin-6 (IL-6), with increased bone resorption as a result. Inhibition of IL-6 may be of interest to reduce bone resorption and therefore bone pain. TOCIDYS is a placebo-controlled randomized cross-over trial to test the hypothesis that tocilizumab can reduce bone resorption in those patients with fibrous dysplasia who have already received bisphosphonates.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate improvement of symptoms from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) as assessed by the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) for prostatic artery embolization (PAE) using Embosphere Microspheres compared to conventional transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP).
Aim of this prospective, parallel multi-arm, randomized, clinical trial, was to compare the clinical outcome of patients Methods.We recruited children who undergone diagnostic colonoscopy in Umberto I Pediatric Department (Rome, Italy) from 2008 to 2010. Eligibility criteria were: 1) only demonstration of LNH; 2) no concomitant disease; 3) no treatment assumed since the clinical onset. Patients were allocated 1:1:1 to dietetic (Group A) vs mesalamine (Group B) vs no treatment (Group C) for a 8-weeks period. Skin prick tests and patch test for common foods, and symptoms scoring at baseline and follow up have been performed by blinded clinicians. Chi-square test for trend was used to compare the frequency of symptoms score improvement (>1 point) among groups. The association of baseline features of patients with the clinical response was estimated by frequency analysis.
Persistent detrusor overactivity (DO) after transurethral prostatectomy results in symptomatic failure in more than one third of the patients. Storage symptoms are major complaints in the early postoperative period after Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP). Levels of the urinary nerve growth factor (NGF), produced by bladder urothelium and smooth muscle, are increased in the patients with overactive bladder (OAB), and decreased after the OAB symptoms were improved. Also, urinary NGF levels are increased in patients with benign prostatic obstruction (BPO), but the changes of the NGF levels after relief of the BPO by the medical or surgical treatment have not been fully investigated. If the elevated urinary NGF levels are reduced after successful surgical treatment of BPO, measurement of urinary NGF could be a useful objective tool to assess the therapeutic outcomes of the operation. The aims of this study are to measure the urinary NGF levels in patients with BPO and to compare the results between the patients with detrusor overactivity (DO) and without detrusor overactivity (Non-DO), average 2 weeks before Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) procedure. After HoLEP, urinary NGF levels are rechecked at the periods of postoperative 3 months and 6 months, and compare changes between the two groups.
Background: - Some premature babies develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). BPD and ROP are long-term chronic diseases of the lungs and eyes, respectively. BPD is associated with receiving mechanical ventilation to treat respiratory distress syndrome, and causes lung inflammation and scarring. ROP is caused by poor development of blood vessels in the eyes, and may lead to blindness. Because not all premature babies develop BPD or ROP, researchers want to study the genes that could be associated with these diseases. They will look at both premature infants and their parents to see if there is a genetic component to BPD and ROP. Objectives: - To study genes that may be associated with BPD and ROP. Eligibility: - Premature babies born with a weight less than or equal to 1,250 grams. - Parents of the premature babies. Design: - Parents will answer questions about the mother s health and pregnancy. - Delivery and medical information will be collected during the baby s hospitalization for the first month after birth. - Parents will provide a saliva sample from the inside of the cheek. - A saliva sample will also be collected from the baby within 28 days of birth. If the baby needs tracheal aspiration (removal of fluid from the throat), tracheal fluid samples will also be collected. - Parents will have followup interviews about their child s health 6 months, 12 months, and yearly for up to 6 years after birth. - This is a genetic study only. Treatment will not be provided as part of this study.
This is an European double-blind, placebo controlled parallel group comparison of DUODART (fixed dose combination of dutasteride 0.5mg and tamsulosin 0.4mg, one capsule daily) and placebo. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: To assess the change in sexual function from baseline to 1 year in sexually active men with at least moderate BPH who are treated with DUODART, compared to men treated with placebo .
The HistoSonics' Histotripsy BPH Device, the Vortx Rx, is a portable ultrasound therapy device. The purpose of this study is to assess and monitor the performance of the Vortx Rx for initial safety and efficacy for the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
This Phase 2 first-in-neonate EDI200 study will enroll treatment-naïve, XLHED-affected male newborns in the first two weeks of life. All subjects will meet entry criteria including documentation of an Ectodysplasin (EDA) mutation associated with XLHED. Following Baseline evaluations, EDI200 dosing will be initiated between day-of-life 2 and 14, with each study subject receiving 2 doses/week for a total of 5 doses. The study will enroll subjects in two cohorts with subjects in cohort 1 dosed at 3 mg/kg/dose, associated with partial efficacy, and cohort 2 dosed at 10 mg/kg/dose where enhanced efficacy was demonstrated in the most relevant preclinical model. Given the challenge of identifying families where the subject is yet to be born, it is expected that cohort size and time for recruitment will be variable.
