Filter by:This study aims to explore the longitudinal incidence and prevalence trends of selected muscular and bone-related rare diseases, i.e., Familial Amyloidotic Polyneuropathy (FAP), Primary hyperoxaluria, Wilson's disease, Cystic fibrosis, Osteogenesis imperfecta, Porphyria, and Primary Paget disease, and analyze healthcare utilization.
Laryngeal nerve monitoring is performed to prevent intraoperative nerve damage in thyroidectomy operations. NIM-EMG intubation tube is used while monitoring the recurrent laryngeal nerve. Care should be taken when placing this tube. Ensure that the electrodes on the tube are in contact with the vocal cords. Both the macintosh laryngoscope and the videolaryngoscope can be used when inserting the NIM-EMG tube. The aim of our study is to compare these two intubation methods.
A retrospective, non-interventional cohort study was used to address the study objectives. This study aimed to provide a better understanding of real-world healthcare resource utilization (HRU) and healthcare reimbursement costs associated with CAR-T therapy among patients with r/r Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the overall safety and efficacy of Tecfidera (Dimethyl Fumarate) as an oral treatment for Korean participants with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) under routine clinical practice.
Catheter suction (CS), the standard method for airway secretion management during mechanical ventilation, is invasive and has significant hemodynamic and traumatic side effects. In-line mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (IL-MIE) is a new, noninvasive technology that clears secretions by cough-simulation, without interrupting ongoing ventilation. It is not known whether IL-MIE can be safely and effectively used as an alternative to CS in ventilated patients. Methods: A randomized, controlled, non-inferiority study comparing a standard protocol of CS, with automatic IL-MIE (CoughSync, Ruxin Medical Systems, Beijing) performed every 30 minutes, with CS added only if needed, in post-operative ventilated patients.
To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral nerve block on postoperative acute and chronic pain and cognitive function in elderly patients with thoracoscopic partial lung resection.
Ankle fractures are one of the most common injuries in traumatology. It is the fourth most common fracture in general population after hip, wrist, and hand fractures. These injuries are the second cause of hospitalization due to fractures. Surgical site infections can be divided according to the Center of Disease Control (CDC) in superficial surgical site infections whose are defined as any infection that happens within the next 30 days after the procedure, they involve only the skin and subcutaneous tissue of the incision, and the patient presents at least one of the following: purulent drainage of the superficial incision, microorganisms isolation from an aseptically obtained culture of body fluid or tissue or the pain existence, tenderness or local inflammation at the superficial incision site despite negative cultures. Also, a diagnosis made by the surgeon or attending medic.
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the rates of adverse events of special interest (AESIs) (thrombotic events, acute kidney injury [AKI], and hemolytic events) among participants with CIDP initiating GGL compared with rates among participants with CIDP initiating comparator intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) products. No study medicines will be provided to participants in this study.
The term temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) refers to a group of disorders affecting the temporomandibular joint and/or muscles of mastication. Typical symptoms are; joint noises, pain, and limited mouth opening. Many therapeutic modalities have been advocated for the treatment of TMD as intraoral splints, laser, ultrasound, physical therapy, surgery, and medications with inconsistent reported results due to the multifactorial etiology of this disorder. Although intraoral splints are the most widely used therapy, it has some drawbacks as being inconvenient for the patient due to their relatively large size interferes with eating and affects speech, therefore their use is mostly limited to sleeping time, which decreases its effectiveness. Recently some commercial earplugs that claim to treat TMD have been introduced, however, there is no validated data regarding these appliances. Thus, this study aimss to evaluate the possible effect of earplugs on myogenous TMD.
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is one of the most dangerous complications of assisted reproduction technology (ART), described in approximatively 3 to 10% of stimulation cycles although an underestimation of the real incidence has been suggested. The use in clinical practice of GnRH antagonist has made it possible to perform the trigger with GnRH analogues, with the advantage of considerably reducing the risk of OHSS.
