Filter by:The main objective of this RCT is to compare the efficacy of a powder/water jet prophylaxis device and conventional hand excavation in excavating root surface caries, with regard to restoration survival/success in older adults. The secondary outcome of this RCT is to assess the participants' treatment preferences for the received treatment with regard to the procedures involved and in the invasiveness of the procedures carried out during the ART restoration.
Objectives The objective of this project is to motivate patients with COPD to incorporate the habit of doing daily mindful physical activity by using the proposed home-based pulmonary rehabilitation program that integrates video guided exercises, activity monitoring daily steps and health coaching. This program will allow patients to complete Pulmonary Rehabilitation (PR) at home and promote behavior change and lead to a more active lifestyle for patients with COPD who have been prescribed PR. The program will be able to effectively monitor daily step count. A health coach will receive more this detailed data and will guide weekly health coaching sessions designed to increase awareness of the physical activities completed and ignite inner motivation for healthy behaviors. The proposed PR program is innovative and responds to an unmet need in chronic care for COPD patients in the context of COVID-19 pandemic and it mitigates the common accessibility barriers.
This observational study will describe the incidence and risk factors of perioperative cardiac complications (PCCs) in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery in Tibet Autonomous Region. And perioperative troponin monitoring will be implemented in these population.
This study is a prospective, two-arm, randomized phase II study of talazoparib versus talazoparib plus atezolizumab in ER+ premeonopausal women with metastatic breast cancer harboring HRD scar 1st line treatment: GnRH agonist + Aromatase Inhibitor(AI) + Palbociclib 28 days after the last treatment of 1st line treatment, randomization for 2nd line treatment is conducte to arm A(Talazoparib+Atezolizumab) and arm B(Talazoparib monotherapy)
The pelvic floor serves as stability and support as it is the postural balance and core resource base for the pelvic organs. A dysfunction in the organs in this area can affect the pelvic floor muscles, the functioning of an organs in the muscles. Incontinence organ prolapse, pelvic pain and sexual problems may occur when the support or stability of the pelvic floor is impaired. Pelvic floor novelization is not always seen weakness. Sometimes excessive contractions and excessive activity in muscle tone can be seen. Stress and anxiety-related tension are the main causes of pelvic floor dysfunctions. Involuntary contractions and excessive muscle tone in the pelvic floor muscles cause chronic pelvic pain syndrome, constipation and dyssynergic defecation problems. Some of these patients have complaints of tightening teeth in the temporamandibular joint, grinding teeth at night, together with contractions in the pelvic floor. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of pelvic floor improvement on tinnitus level as a result of dysfunctional condition in temporamandibular joint with treatment practices of pelvic floor patients with excessive muscle activity.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive and disabling neurodegenerative disease, clinically characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms. The potential of the "Transcranial direct current stimulation" (tDCS) for symptomatic improvement in these patients has been demonstrated, but the factors associated with the best therapeutic response are not known. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is considered as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of PD, and has been used in recent studies associated with machine-learning methods to identify predictors of responses in neurological and psychiatric conditions. Using connectivity-based prediction and machine-learning, the investigators intend to identify and compare characteristics related to baseline resting EEG between PD responders and non-responders to tDCS treatment. The recruited participants will be randomized to treatment with active tDCS associated with dual-task motor therapy or motor therapy with visual cues. A resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) will be recorded prior to the start of the treatment. The investigators will determine clinical improvement labels used for machine learning classification, in baseline and posttreatment assessments and will use three different methods to categorize the data into two classes (low or high improvement): Support Vector Machine (SVM), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Extreme Learning Machine (ELM). The functional label will be based on the Timed Up and Go Test recorded at baseline and posttreament of tDCS treatment.
The failure can be traced backed to operator causes, technical causes and patient causes. the most common etiology is cannulation failure. ERCP complications includes post-ERCP pancreatitis, perforation, bleeding, cholangitis and cholecystitis.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of parsaclisib when combined with ruxolitinb versus placebo combined with ruxolitinib in participants with myelofibrosis who have suboptimal response while receiving ruxolitinib monotherapy.
