Filter by:A comparison of external cephalic (ECV) success rates when ECV performed with full urinary bladder or not. The study is prospective and randomised. Both nulliparous and multiparous women will be enrolled in the study, however each group will be randomized separately either to full urinary bladder or not. Written informed consent will be obtained prior to inclusion in the study.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of dry needling, static stretching and instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization on joint range of motion, performance and muscle structure in individuals with Hamstring muscle shortness and to examine the changes in soft tissue before and after application with the help of ultrasound elastography.
It has been suggested that the actual obesity epidemy is related to chronic overconsumption of added or free sugars. The increasing popularity of artificial sweeteners attest the population willingness to reduce added sugars intake and to use alternatives to alleviate health impact of free sugar overconsumption. However, recent findings suggest that artificial sweeteners may rather contribute to obesity epidemy and its associated adverse health effects, potentially via a negative impact on gut microbiota. It has been shown in various studies that, for the same amount of sucrose, unrefined sugars (such as maple syrup) are associated with favorable metabolic effects. The polyphenols contained in maple syrup, especially lignans, could contribute to these positive effects. Indeed, the strong impact of those biomolecules on the modulation of gut microbiota and on gastro-intestinal and metabolic health has been demonstrated in several studies. It is therefore highly relevant to test the hypothesis that the substitution of refined sugar by an equivalent amount of maple syrup (5% of daily energy intake) result in a lesser metabolic deterioration, by the modulation of maple syrup on gut microbiota, than the one observed with refined sugar.
Refractory right heart failure is common during the postoperative period after left ventricular assist device implantation. Oral phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors are oft initiated in order to facilitate weaning from the intravenous inotropic substances. following this period many patients continue to receive the same medication in the long term, despite missing data on its therapeutic effect on right ventricular function.We hypothesise that beyond the acute postoperative period no additional benefit from the phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors exists. The aim of the study is a detailed clinical and echocardiographic assessment of the right ventricular function after discontinuation of the medication in patients pretreated for at least one month after receiving left ventricular assist device.
Randomized controlled trial, in parallel with cross-control design. Two groups of healthy subjects will be randomly selected to transcranial stimulation group or suboccipital stimulation group. Each group receive in a randomized order a real direct current session and a sham session. The study is based on the hypothesis that the application of direct current sitmulation applied at the suboccipital level produce higher modifications on endogenous pain modulation system than transcranial stimulation.
This study evaluates the impact of using LabPad® point-of-care to measure International Normalized Ratio (INR) at home on the patient's follow up on vitamine K antagonist (VKA) treatment during 6 months.
This protocol details the full methods of two parallel, randomized controlled trials of an eight-week resistance exercise training intervention compared to a wait-list control condition among young adults with and without analogue-Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
This registry study is a one-year, one-visit, observational, prospective, open-label, two-arm, multi-center, multi-national, post-market study of approximately 300 patients who have recently been fitted with the ACUVUE® OASYS with Transitions™ and approximately 300 patients who have recently been fitted with spherical nonphotochromic reusable marketed silicone hydrogel contact lenses (of any brand). Eligible subjects will be asked to complete a Patient Registration Questionnaire several times throughout the year.
This study will assess the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of BMS-963272 in obese but otherwise healthy participants.
The aim of the study was to describe an intensive ultra rush (UR) protocol of raw Golden apple (RGA) reintroduction in 28 in-patients, show the protocol's tolerance and the patients' follow-up at 2 months and 1 year. Patients with oral allergic syndrome (OAS) having resulted in raw fruits eviction were admitted to day hospital between June 1 2016 and October 31 2017.
