Filter by:The investigators aimed to establish a prospective cohort of patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in cardiac surgery from April 2021 to September 2022, in Wuhan. The ARDS events, ventilation time, time of extubation, oxygenation index for 3 days after operation were observed. Plasma samples were collected before CPB, and several time points after CPB. Dynamic differential proteins of ARDS after CPB were screened by DIA (Data independent acquisition) proteomics. Quantitative protein marker concentration was used to predict the occurrence of ARDS after operation, the model discrimination and calibration was assessed.
Given the high recurrence of urolithiasis in patients, the search for less aggressive and preventive treatments is increasingly necessary. Renalof® is presented as an alternative to herbal medicine being a product that, due to its diuretic and demineralization properties of kidney stones, has been widely used in this patient population, disintegrating and eliminating calcium oxalate and struvite stones in a painless in the genitourinary system. With the objective of determining the efficacy of this therapy, an observational, prospective, randomized, single-blind, two-arm study was carried out: treatment group with Renalof® and control group, placebo.
BLU-285-2405 is a multi-center, synthetic control, observational and retrospective study designed to compare clinical outcomes for avapritinib compared with best available therapy for patients with AdvSM.
The study design will allow investigators to describe usual care in each PICU and identify the facilitating and restraining factors impacting the implementation of R2 at each PICU. The purpose of this pilot study is to improve the care, environment, daily routine and sleep patterns of children in the PICU. The goal of this study is to learn what can be improved to support a critically ill child's healing and circadian rhythms.
This study develops and tests an instrument to measure opportunity costs called the Oncology Opportunity Cost Assessment Tool (OOCAT) in cancer patients. Patients experience significant costs, both direct financial as well as indirect costs, associated with seeking cancer treatment. While the direct financial impact of care on patients is receiving increased attention, other important consequences, such as opportunity cost, remain largely unmeasured. Opportunity cost is an economics term that refers to the loss of potential benefits from other options when one option is chosen - if resources are used for one purpose, they are no longer available for the next best option. The information and knowledge gained from this study may help researchers develop the OOCAT, which may allow them to understand the opportunity cost of treatment for each patient. The OOCAT may then be used to determine not just the best medications for patients, but also the best comprehensive treatment plan that will allow them to get the right treatment in the right place at the right time.
This trial studies the feasibility and acceptability of a mobile intervention called txt4TKI for the improvement of tyrosine kinase inhibitor management in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are associated with numerous potential side effects, including a decrease in bone marrow activity (myelosuppression), nausea, diarrhea, fatigue, and soft-tissue swelling (edema), especially in the face and lower legs, which are the primary reasons for patients to discontinue TKI medication. Using a mobile text messaging (TXT) intervention that emphasizes the importance of TKI compliance may improve TKI adherence in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.
RCT in which 28 children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) were enrolled and equally distributed into two groups; Participants in control group were treated with conventional physical therapy while experimental were given conventional physical therapy in addition to trampoline exercises. Assessment was at 0, 4 and 8 week using developmental coordination disorder questionnaire (DCDQ), pediatric balance scale (PBS) and peads quality of life (PQL)
This double-blind pilot study will evaluate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of an over-the-counter (OTC) regimen of naproxen sodium versus acetaminophen in patients receiving one or two (adjacent) dental implants. It will also confirm that naproxen sodium in the OTC dosage range is a good alternative to immediate-release opioid formulations, which are subject to misuse, abuse and diversion in this patient population.
The aim of this study was to develop an interactive mobile application and to investigate the effect of this application on the management of nausea and vomiting symptoms by using it during chemotherapy treatment.
The dearth of Intensive care units in low resource settings portends for poor outcomes amongst patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) . To our knowledge, the effect of CPAP and HFNC on major outcomes has not been assessed in adults with AHRF in resource-limited settings. The aim of this prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, trial is to determine whether High-flow oxygen through a nasal cannula (HFNC) or Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) system can reduce mortality among patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) in a limited resource setting as compared with standard low flow oxygen therapy?
