Filter by:This study investigates the hypothesis, that GLP-1's suppression of ANG II and natriuretic action increase medullary perfusion and decrease oxygen consumption, leading to higher tissue oxygenation.
The primary purpose of this study is conduct a pilot study testing the study protocols, implementation program, and mixed-methods data collection.
The regulation of clitoral vascularization by sex steroids is still under-investigated. We aimed to explore the effects of 6 months transdermal Testosterone (T) therapy on clitoral color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) parameters in pre- and postmenopausal women with female sexual dysfunction (FSD). In order to do that, we retrospectively recruited n=81 women with FSD, divided into 4 groups according to different treatments followed as per clinical practice, for 6 months: transdermal systemic 2% T gel; local estradiol ovules; local non-hormonal moisturizers; transdermal T plus local estrogens. Our main hypothesis is that systemic T treatment is able to positively modulate clitoral blood flow in basal conditions, specifically to increase clitoral artery Peak systolic velocity (PSV).
This study is designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) in male children with nmDMD aged ≥6 months to <2 years treated daily for 24 weeks with orally administered ataluren 10, 10, and 20 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg) (morning, mid-day, and evening dose, respectively).

Researchers are promoting non-pharmacological pain management strategies for patients by assisting them in identifying post-surgical pain care preference following an operative procedure at Mayo Clinic.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of critically ill patients with COVID-19 admitted to the intensive care unit. A Multicenter Observational Study.
Surgical repair of the hip can be extremely painful and is associated with considerable postoperative pain in children despite the use of systemic opioids. These patients may benefit from neuraxial analgesia in adjunction with general anesthesia. The reported advantages of this technique include decreased opiate exposure, decreased time in the post-anesthesia recovery room, decreased hospital stay, reduce the post-operative morbidity, provide early mobilization. Ultrasound guided caudal block has many advantages as it is helpful for visualization of the sacral hiatus, sacrococcygeal ligament, epidural space and the distribution of the local anesthetic agent within the epidural space. So, the success rate of caudal block is increase . Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has been recently recommended by Girón-Arango et al. for use as postoperative analgesia in hip surgeries (8) It is a new regional anesthesia method in the region between the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) and ilio-pubic eminence
This feasibility study investigates the impact of reminder-focused-positive-psychiatry (RFPP) on attention-deficit-hyperactive-disorder (ADHD) and posttraumatic-stress-disorder (PTSD) symptoms, vascular-function, inflammation and well-being of adolescents with comorbid ADHD & PTSD. In this randomized clinical trial, 24 subjects with comorbid ADHD and PTSD, aged 12-18 years old, free of known medical and other major psychiatric disorders, will be recruited from the pool of eligible subjects at Los Angeles and Kern County Children Mental Health Centers (>1500 subjects) after obtaining informed consent from parents as well as subjects' assentment. Commonwealth and Oswell Kern County Mental Health Clinic will be used for subjects enrollment, randomization as well as study implementation from trauma disorder clinic. Kern Medical will be used for manuscript write up and analyses. Adolescents will be randomized to: group-RFPP or trauma-focused group-cognitive-behavioral-therapy (TF-CBT). Participants will complete twice-weekly-intervention for 6-weeks-trial. The group-RFPP-intervention will be inclusive of RFPP interventions on a) traumatic-reminders, and b Avoidance & negative-cognition. Vascular-function-measured as temperature-rebound (TR), C-reactive-protein (CRP), homocysteine, SNAP-questionnaire, Clinician-Administered PTSD-Scale-children-version (CAPS-CA) and neuropsychiatric-measures will be measured at baseline and 6th week. Subjects will be followed for 12 months. Parents and subjects will be informed of the risks associated with use of venipuncture and loss of confidentiality of collected information.
