Filter by:This is a placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess whether Guanfacine Extended Release (GXR) reduces aggression and self injurious behavior in individuals with Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS). In addition, the study will establish the safety of GXR with a specific focus on metabolic effects.
In previous studies, we know methylene blue (MB) stains nerves, and oxidized MB has near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence for fluorescent observation. In this trial we using MB on human skin and combining MB and third-harmonic generation imaging (THG) to label cutaneous nerve fibers.
The objective of this project is to determine the concordance between the subjective and objective evaluation of cognitive functions in affective patients in partial remission through scales and cognitive tests that would be easily implemented in the different mental health care devices. This is a cross-sectional case-control study of non-probabilistic sampling, which will include a group of patients diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and Bipolar Disorder and a group of healthy controls from the same population and matched by age, gender and years of education with the group of patients. Patients will be recruited from the psychiatric service of the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau who meet the inclusion criteria, and they will undergo a blood draw, a clinical assessment, a complete neuropsychological examination together with scales of subjective perception of cognitive deficit, a measure of cognitive reserve and an evaluation of psychosocial functionality. In addition, the same evaluation will be made to a group of healthy subjects.The total sample will be 120
This multicenter observational study will explore the risk factors of early neurological deterioration(END) in patients with primary and to investigate the association between END and outcome.
The NUMITOR study is an analytical observational study with an multicenter ambisective (retrospective and prospective) cohort design.
The Rett Syndrome Registry is a longitudinal observational study of individuals with MECP2 mutations and a diagnosis of Rett syndrome. Designed together with the IRSF Rett Syndrome Center of Excellence Network medical directors, this study collects data on the signs and symptoms of Rett syndrome as reported by the Rett syndrome experts and by the caregivers of individuals with Rett syndrome. This study will be used to develop consensus based guidelines for the care of your loved ones with Rett syndrome and to facilitate the development of better clinical trials and other aspects of the drug development path for Rett syndrome.
This is a prospective study that would investigate the transcranial doppler (TCD) changes during the living donor liver transplantation and the association between the TCD changes and the post-transplant neurological complications.
In high-volume trauma centers, multi-slice CT scanners have become the routine imaging modality for screening trauma patients due to their speed and accuracy. In trauma patients with no known neurologic deficits, diagnostic CT is often obtained though it remains unclear whether this affects management of the patient [1]. With the growing cost of health care, a careful look at the benefit and cost of CT is needed to determine how to best utilize this modality in the evaluation of trauma patients. HYPOTHESIS: In trauma patients with absence of neurologic defects, the addition of comprehensive CT does not change overall clinical management.
The SafeBoosC-III 2 year follow up study will follow up on all patients randomised in the SafeBoosC-III clinical trial (NCT03770741). The investigators will collect data when the patients are two years of corrected age from routine standardised follow up assessments, parental questionnaires as well as informal assessments. The study will commence in September 2021, and will expect to include all 72 sites across 18 countries, which take part of the SafeBoosC-III clinical trial.
Background Delirium, is a clinical condition characterized by acute and fluctuating deterioration of the cognitive state, generally secondary to an acute pathology. It is a common condition in hospitalized older adults and it develops in 20-30% of patients hospitalized in a general ward and up to 80% of those hospitalized in critical care units. Delirium is associated with negative outcomes in older adults, such as longer hospitalizations, higher mortality, and short and medium-term institutionalization. Randomized clinical trials have shown that delirium is preventable through non-pharmacological prevention measures, decreasing its incidence by 30 to 50%. These interventions include promoting physical activity, facilitating the use of glasses and hearing aids, cognitive stimulation, and providing frequent reorientation of time and space, among others. These measures are currently seldom applied in hospitals in Chile and around the world for various reasons some of which include the heavy workload of clinical staff, the lack of trained personnel, and, in general, the absence of systematic implementation processes. The main objective is to evaluate whether cognitive stimulation guided by PREVEDEL software prevents delirium status(full/subsyncromal delirium) in hospitalized older adults. Method/Design: randomized controlled trial, parallel groups, multicenter. Participants: patients 65 years or older who have been hospitalized for less than 48 hours in the general ward or in the intermediate care unit of 4 hospitals in Santiago, Chile. Intervention: participants in the intervention group will use a tablet with cognitive stimulation software for delirium prevention for 5 continuous days versus the control group who will use the tablet without the software. Evaluations: The incidence of delirium and subsyndromal delirium, duration, density of delirium, cognitive and functional status at discharge, adherence to prevention measures, as well as demographic variables of interest will be evaluated.
