Filter by:Cerebral lesions are responsible for two thirds of deaths in patients admitted to intensive care following cardiac arrest. Patients with neurological lesions should be the priority target for neuroprotective interventions, which are the cornerstone of post-cardiac arrest care (allowing a reduction in the burden of care for patients without this type of lesion). Furthermore, these interventions must be based on a precise assessment of the severity of these brain lesions: carrying out neuro-protective interventions in patients without brain lesions exposes these patients to unnecessary treatment potentially associated with adverse effects without any possible benefit. However, the early assessment of neurological prognosis, particularly on admission to intensive care, is an area where there is little research and where it is not possible to obtain a precise and reproducible assessment. Several tools can be used to assess this prognosis at an early stage: anamnesis and characteristics of the cardiac arrest and the patient's comorbidities, imaging, electrophysiology and biomarkers. To assess the predictive value of early biomarker testing in patients resuscitated after cardiac arrest, whatever the cause, the investigators plan to conduct a prospective observational multicentre trial. It is important to bear in mind that the aim of this study is not to assess the long-term prognosis of patients suffering cardiac arrest in order to take measures to limit or discontinue active therapies, but simply to provide a reliable tool, simple and quick to use, in order to be able to identify a sub-population of patients who should be the subject of preferential neuro-protection measures, and conversely to simplify management (moderate temperature control, early cessation of sedation, early extubation) for patients with no neurological lesions.
In the treatment of Ph-negative (Ph-) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), despite the achievements of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, the therapeutic outcomes are unsatisfactory in elderly or unfit patients. In recent years, tumor immunotherapy has demonstrated a high safety and efficacy profile in refractory Ph- B-ALL patients. These findings suggest that the advancement of immunotherapy application may be an important approach to improve patient survival. In this study, we propose a treatment approach that combines immuno-targeted drugs with low-dose chemotherapy for newly diagnosed elderly or unfit patients with Ph- B-ALL, aiming to enhance the measurable residual disease (MRD)-negative complete remission (CR) rate measured through flow cytometry following induction therapy, reduce the risk of relapse, and ultimately improve patients' overall survival.
This study aims to establish a cohort of 500 patients with hematological disease who undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the northwest region. All patients will be followed up at the outpatient clinic once a week after transplantation until 100 days after transplantation to observe the presence of acute graft versus host disease, acute kidney damage, and major cardiovascular adverse events. Serum samples from the day before pre-treatment, day after pre-treatment, 2 weeks,4 weeks,8 weeks and 12 weeks after transplantation will be detected by metabolomics sequencing.The primary objective is to explore the serum metabolic markers of acute graft versus host disease,acute kidney injury, and major adverse cardiac events within 100 days after transplantation,the secondary objective is to observe the high-risk factors for early complications.
This clinical trial assesses the acceptability and efficacy of Empowered, Queer, Quitting, and Living--New Mexico (EQQUAL-NM), a smoking cessation intervention for sexual and gender minority young adults in New Mexico. Smoking prevalence among sexual and gender minority (SGM) adults in New Mexico is more than twice as high as non-SGM adults. Helping young adult tobacco users to quit is critical, yet there have been few efforts to develop tailored treatments specifically for this population. EQQUAL-NM is a digital smoking cessation intervention designed specifically for SGM young adult smokers in New Mexico and may help them quit smoking.
The use of neuromuscular blockers (NMB) is essential to optimize surgical conditions, ensure patient immobility during the intervention and prevent complications derived from involuntary movements. Intraoperative monitoring of neuromuscular relaxation allows the depth of neuromuscular blockade to be accurately evaluated, guaranteeing ideal conditions for the surgical team. Residual neuromuscular blockade (RNMB) is the persistence of muscle paralysis after the administration of NMB during a surgical intervention. The appearance of RNMB poses substantial challenges in the postoperative period, as it has negative repercussions for the safety and well-being of the patient.
The aim of the study was to intervene in the Aerobic exercise time of patients with STEMI and to explore the optimal exercise time for STEMI patients
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of MTBF conditioning regimen of salvageable allo-HSCT in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. The secondary purpose of the study was to observe the safety of MTBF regimen in these patients.
A Study of Anti-CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell (CD19 CAR T) Therapy, in Subjects with Refractory Primary and Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new type of pacemaker in heart failure patients following a heart bypass operation. The new pacemaker restores respiratory sinus arrhythmia which is a natural pattern where the heart rate increases when the participants breathe in and slows down when participants breathe out. The main questions the trial aims to answer are: - Is the new type of pacemaker safe? - Does the new type of pacemaker improve how patients' hearts work (also known as cardiac output)? Participants will have a range of tests before their operation and during their recovery in hospital while participants have the new type of pacemaker in place, and will be monitored very closely. Participants will also receive a phone call 1 month after their surgery. Researchers will compare the new type of heart pacing against standard treatment to see if it is as safe, and if it is any better for patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effectiveness of extracorporeal shockwave(ESWT) combined with platelet-rich plasma(PRP) to treat chronic insertional tendinopathy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does ESWT combined with PRP treatment reduce the symptom and improve functional score after treatment? What medical complication do participants have when receive the treatment? Researchers will compare ESWT combined with PRP to ESWT treatment alone to see if ESWT combined with PRP works to treat chronic insertional tendinopathy. Participants will: - Receive ESWT once a week for 4 weeks then receive PRP injection at a week later or ESWT once a week for 4 weeks - Visit the clinic at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after treatment for checkups and record functional score
