Filter by:This trial studies how well an imaging technique called magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopic imaging works in identifying breast cancer in women with benign or suspicious areas in the breast. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic tool used to investigate the location of tumors in different organs. Since radiological pictures do not have sufficient information for tumor grades, invasive procedure such as biopsy is performed on patients with breast cancers for diagnosis. Breast tissue contains water, fat, and chemicals known as metabolites. MR spectroscopic imaging may help to characterize the various breast metabolite steady state levels and identify the differences between necrosis and tumor recurrence, which is difficult using radiological procedures such as MRI.
In the face of imminent loss, many adults with metastatic cancer report a range of mental health challenges, including cancer-related trauma symptoms, fear of cancer progression and dying/death, anxiety, depression, and hopelessness, as well as physical symptoms such as fatigue and pain. Cancer patients may report feeling upset or haunted by imagined scenarios in a way that causes them distress and lowers their quality of life. This study aims to look at the acceptability and feasability of a writing-based intervention for adults with late-stage or recurrent cancer, or actively treated blood cancer. The EASE study uses a writing-based approach to address an individual's worst-case scenario about cancer because previous studies have shown that similar approaches have shown promise in reducing fear in early-stage cancer survivors and among adults with PTSD (posttraumatic stress disorder). The EASE study represents a novel adaptation of this foundational work on written exposure therapy (WET) to address worst-case scenarios among adults with late stage cancers. The EASE study will include 5 weekly one-on-one online video sessions with a trained therapist where participants will be coached through writing exercises based on a worst-case scenario related to their cancer experience.
The forest healing system is an important topic of alternative therapy in recent years. To investigates forest therapy's effectiveness in alleviating negative emotions among post-cancer patients. It compares therapy outcomes at Taipei Botanical Garden and Fushan Botanical Garden. Utilizing a pretest-posttest experimental design, a two-hour guided forest healing activity serves as the intervention method. Data collection involves instrumental tests and saliva samples.
This clinical trial evaluates changes in cardiac (heart) function during stress echocardiography to screen for chemically induced cardiotoxicity in cancer patients at a high risk for developing heart failure. Some chemotherapeutic agents to treat certain types of cancers can induce cardiac dysfunction and heart failure. Currently there is no validated means of predicting which patients will go on to develop cardiac toxicity and heart failure following treatment with chemotherapeutic agents. Stress echocardiography is a test that uses ultrasound imaging to show how well the heart muscle is working to pump blood to the body during low intensity exercise. Stress echocardiography prior to and during cancer treatment may help doctors find cancer therapeutic related cardiac dysfunction sooner when it may be easier to treat.
This is the study of 64Cu-FAPI-XT117, which is an prospective, single-arm phase I clinical study.
This study is a clinical trial of prospective, single-arm objective performance criteria. This trial will be conducted in clinical trial sites with a total of 47 subjects enrolled. All of subjects will be treated with radiation therapy using the medical device Varian ProBeam Proton Therapy System (ProBeam), aim to compare the data with objective performance criteria (OPC) to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ProBeam radiotherapy system for oncology patients, providing a clinical basis for the medical device registration.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of multisession mindful breathing in reducing symptoms among patients with advanced cancer. Adult patients with advanced cancer will be assessed using Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS) scoring system. Patients who scored ≥4 in at least two or more components in ESAS will be recruited and randomly assigned to either 4 daily-session of 30-minute mindful breathing and standard care or standard care alone.
Research purpose To elucidate the effect mechanism and clinical effective of Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction in the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer. From genes related to cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, tumor invasion and metastasis, genes related to immune inflammation and immune escape and other possible aspects to elucidate the effective and mechanism of Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction's treatment on gastric cancer
BACKGROUND: Textbook outcome (TO) is a multidimensional quality management tool that uses a set of traditional surgical measures to reflect an "ideal" surgical result for a particular pathology. The aim of the present study is to record the rate of TO in patients undergoing elective surgery for adrenal neoplasms. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective study of all patients undergoing scheduled adrenal neoplasms surgery at a Spanish university hospital from September January 2010 to December 2022. Emergency surgeries were excluded. The variables included in the definition of TO were: R0 resection, no Clavien-Dindo ≥IIIa complications, no prolonged stay, no readmissions, and no mortality in the first 30 days. The main objective of this study is to analyse the achievement of TO in a series of patients undergoing scheduled adrenal neoplasms resection at the Doctor Balmis General University Hospital in Alicante, Spain. The investigators compare the group of patients who achieve a TO result with the group of patients who do not. A univariable and multivariable analysis will be carry out in order to indentified the variables associated with TO.
