Filter by:This study focuses on patients who have developed a condition called medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), which can occur after using certain medications. The purpose is to closely monitor these patients over time to better understand how they are diagnosed, treated, and followed up. By doing this, researchers hope to uncover how different factors such as a patient's background, lifestyle, and other health conditions might influence their recovery and overall quality of life.
This study aims to conduct a detailed analysis of the immunological response profiles that emerge at different clinical stages of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). The research seeks to understand how these responses influence the pathogenesis, staging, and treatment of MRONJ. Throughout the study, cytokine levels, inflammation markers, and other immunological parameters observed at various stages will be comprehensively assessed. The results of these analyses are expected to provide insights into how stage-specific immunological variables could play a role in the diagnosis and treatment of MRONJ.
Six patients with diagnosed bone loss of the hip who have consented to minimally invasive repair will be approached to participate in the study. Participants will have the liquid portion of bone marrow collected using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, which is the standard system used by physicians at The Ohio State University, and the novel Marrow Cellutions system™. Bone marrow liquid will be collected from the surgical hip using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, and the Marrow Cellutions system™ will be used to collect bone marrow liquid from the non-surgical hip. Following collection, the bone marrow liquid will be processed using the respective systems to concentrate the cells and molecules found in the bone marrow liquid. As part of the standard of care for this arthroscopic procedure, concentrated bone marrow liquid processed using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system will be delivered to the surgical site as an adjunct to promote healing. Concentrated bone marrow liquid prepared with the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system is given as part of the standard of care for patients undergoing minimally invasive treatment for bone loss of the hip; therefore, the target population for this study are individuals between the ages of 18-50 years with confirmed bone loss of the hip who have consented to minimally invasive repair. In addition to the concentrated bone marrow liquid prepared using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, patients will also have bone marrow liquid collected from the non-surgical hip using the Marrow Cellutions™ system. Only concentrated bone marrow liquid produced with the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system will be given to the patient. All concentrated bone marrow liquid produced with the Marrow Cellutions™ system will be sent to the laboratory for analysis. Additionally, white blood cells will be concentrated into an autologous protein solution (APS) using the Zimmer Biomet Plasmax system from blood collected using a routine blood draw. All protein solution produced will be sent to the laboratory for analysis. No protein solution will be given to the patient. As the bone marrow liquid collection using the Marrow Cellutions™ system and the blood draw to produce protein solution using the Zimmer Biomet Plasmax system are being performed for research,
Crepitus causing unsatisfied result to patients after posterior stabilized total knee arthroplasty. Recent retrospective study demonstrated removal of hyperplastic synovium in distal quadriceps caused reduce of crepitus. However, this study has limitation of time gap exist between arms, different in observation time and bias caused by retrospective review. Thus aim of this study is that by randomized trial, verified hyperplastic synovium in distal quadriceps causing crepitus. Target enrolled patients in this study are scheduled to perform both total knee arthroplasty. Experimental group is randomized side (right or left) of knee, and control group is other side of knee. Both arms decided by randomized number table. Crepitus measured after 3mo, 6mo, 1year after surgical treatment
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) occurs after taking bisphosphonates or targeted therapies. It leads to a significant decrease in quality of life with pain, eating and chewing disorders, and malnutrition. Current treatments are only partially effective. PENTO (pentoxifylline and tocopherol) has been shown to be effective in maxillary osteoradionecrosis. The objective of this study is to evaluate the proportion of bone recovery in patients receiving PENTO in MRONJ at 12 months.
A total of 250 total hip arthroplasties (THA) are performed at the Bezirkskrankenhaus St. Johann. In a majority of those, implants from the company Falcon Medical (Austria) are used. Those implants are undergoing constant development and improvement. To guarantee their clinical performance, this clinical study is evaluating safety and efficacy of all implants produced by Falcon Medical. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effcacy and safety of implants produced and distributed by Falcon Medical. All patients with primary THA and usage of a Falcon Medical implant are included. The outcome measures include intra-operative complications, early post-operative complications, revision for any cause and patient reported outcome (WOMAC questionnaire). All data is prospectively collected in a standardized fashion.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about functional and patient reported outcomes in patient undergoing total wrist replacement with the KinematX total wrist replacement study. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the range of motion (flexion, extension, radial, ulnar, grip and pinch strength) at 3-, 6-, and 12-months after surgery and yearly up to 10 years among patients having total wrist replacement with the KinematX implant. - What are the patient reported outcomes (PROMIS, PRWE, HSS wrist expectations) at 3-, 6-, and 12-months after surgery and yearly up to 10 years among patients having total wrist replacement with the KinematX implant. - How do range of motion and patient reported outcomes change over the 10 years after total wrist replacement surgery? Participants will be followed according to standard of care and preoperative and post-operative information for up to 10 years after surgery will be collected and entered into an electronic data base. Patients are eligible to enroll into the registry before or after they have had their wrist replacement surgery.
The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical and x-ray results of patients who are treated with core decompression of the hip and the injection of a bone marrow concentrate and the use of the Bone Graft Substitute Genex®.
The hip prosthesis market is constantly growing with the number of prostheses reaching 949,000 in 2019. Along with this, there is also an increase in interest in short stems also called shortened stems. Thus on Pubmed, in 5 years, 171 publications have been listed. Thus, it seems interesting to study and analyze the performance of the shortened stem used in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology of the University Hospitals of Strasbourg and to compare them with the results of the literature.
This study aims to demonstrate, during the first standard surgical management of patients with stage II MRONJ, the effect of the implantation of a cryopreserved hAM on the maxillomandibular bone, on the healing of the oral mucosa.
