The aim of the study is to examine the prospective validity of neurocognitive functions and emotional factors in schoolchildren with ADHD and a control group of typically developing schoolchildren at baseline and after three years.
Idiopathic inflammatory disorders of the central nervous system include various disorders of which multiple sclerosis is the most common. Besides multiple sclerosis, other distinct disorders including for example anti-AQP4 (aquaporine-4) and anti-MOG (Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein) NMOSD (Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder) have been well characterized and are now known to be distinct from MS. some patient belonging to MS spectrum have recently being characterized but unusual MRI findings have mimicking inherited leukoencephalopathies and leukodystrophies. Whether these patients with atypical phenotype represent a separate disease distinct from MS or belong to MS spectrum is not clear. The objectives are to evaluate a series of 15 patients with atypical forms of MS using non-conventional MRI techniques and biological biomarkers (serum neurofilaments light chain) and to compare them with classical MS patients (15 relapsing remitting patients and 15 progressive patients) and 15 controls. the hypothesize is that these patients with atypical MS have a more severe neurodegenerative process.
To evaluate the effectiveness of patisiran in patients with ATTRv amyloidosis with polyneuropathy who have a V122I or T60A mutation.
Background: Despite being an important treatment intervention, chest tube causes severe pain during removal because it attaches to the endothelium in the chest cavity. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of cold application with ice pack and gel pad in the control of pain experienced during chest tube removal. Design: Prospective, parallel three armed, randomized controlled trial. Settings: The study was conducted in athoracic surgery unit of a university hospital. Methods: The sample of this study consisted of 180 patients in two experimental groups and one control group.The patients were randomly assigned by a computer program to either intervention groups (ice pack or gel pad) or control group.One experimental group received cold application using ice pack and the other received cold application using gel pad until the skin temperature of all the patients fell to 13.6°C. The control group did not receive any intervention. Pain severity was assessed with Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) before chest tube removal, at the end of the procedure and 15 minutes after the procedure. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi-square, student t-test in independent groups, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and repeated measures ANOVA.
An open-label study to characterize the effects of mild, moderate, and severe Hepatic Impairment (HI) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ampreloxetine following a single oral dose in comparison with healthy volunteers with normal hepatic function.
The purpose of this phase II trial is to identify the most effective dose level (number of classes) of a diet and physical activity lifestyle program based on how well it improves diet and physical activity in stage 0-III breast cancer survivors. Study results may provide researchers with information on how to best implement diet and physical activity recommendations among breast cancer survivors.
This is a multicenter, active-controlled, double masked study assessing the safety, efficacy and durability of four monthly intravitreal (IVT) injections of RBM-007 monotherapy, and four monthly RBM-007 injections in combination with Eylea® dosed at every other month, compared to Eylea® monotherapy dosed at every other month in approximately eighty-one subjects with exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
This study prospectively recruited esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma patients who received nasogastric tube (NG), gastrostomy feeding and oral intake to compare the changes in nutritional status and quality of life during chemoradiation therapy (CRT).
Evidence-based practice (EBP) has improved patient health outcomes. The work environment of nurses is a key element to improving the quality of care and to facilitate EBP, while also improving health outcomes. The CCEC® / BPSO® program consists of the implementation of Good Practice Guides in health organizations in the Spanish territory, and is carried out through a training and participatory methodology, actively involving nurses in the process. The present study tries to know if in the health organizations where the CCEC® / BPSO® program has been implemented, the perception of the nurses' working environment has improved, as well as their attitude towards evidence-based practice, with respect to organizations where this program has not been implemented.
