Filter by:The mBCA 515 was compared to the gold standard methods MRI, DXA, ADP, D2O- and NaBr-dilution in previous clinical investigations (BCA-01, BCA-02, BCA-20) to generate prediction equations for calculating body composition (FFM, SMM, ECW, TBW and VAT) in different populations. Furthermore, normal ranges for body composition were generated based on the previous study BCA-03 conducted at the UKE. The mBCA 555 is a new body composition analyzer measuring bioimpedance in standing position developed by seca. In order to apply prediction equations and normal ranges from previous clinical investigations BCA-01, BCA-02, BCA-03 and BCA-20 to the new mBCA 555 it shall be compared to the mBCA 515.
This is a Phase 1/2a, nonrandomized, open-label, parallel assignment, single-dose, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion study to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of PBCAR20A in adult subjects with r/r B-cell NHL or r/r CLL/SLL.
Introduction: Diabetes is a chronic disease that requires lifelong self care behavior. Successful treatment of chronic diseases is closely associated with the education of both patients and their relatives. Patient education is one of the most important responsibilities of diabetes nurse educators. In the management of diabetes, helping patients to improve their health and quality of life is considered an important aspect of diabetes self-care education. Solid organ transplantation is now the standard of care for end-stage organ failure. New-onset diabetes mellitus after solid organ transplantation (NODAT) has emerged as an increasingly important determinant of outcomes and survival in transplant recipients. Patient education and self-management are crucial for ensuring successful outcome post transplantation. No adequate studies concerning education of diabetic renal transplants. Aim of the work: The aim of this work is to evaluate the effect of diabetes education given to renal transplant recipients with new onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) on their self-care activities and metabolic control variables and reversibility of the present chronic diabetic complications. Patients and methods: The study will involve 210 diabetic renal transplant patients (NODAT) who will be referred from Hamed Al-Essa organ transplant center to Dasman Diabetes Institute. These patients will be sub-divided into three subgroups: patients who will receive group education (n=70) will represent group1, patients who will receive one to one education (n=70) will represent group 2, while those who will receive the conventional (not structured) education program will serve as control group 3(n= 70). All patients of group 1 and 2 will receive intensive education for 3-4 months, then refreshment session every 3 months for 2 years. Initially, patient data will be collected through 3 types of forms: patient identification form, metabolic control parameters form and diabetes self-care scale questionnaire; then every 6 months metabolic parameters and diabetes self-care scale questionnaire will be reassessed. Expected outcome: Patient education given to transplant recipients with NODAT could affect patients' self-care activities, metabolic control positively and possibly help in reversal of chronic diabetic complications
Prospective, Randomized clinical trial study will be carried out in intensive care unit in Ain Shams University Hospitals on 40 forty septic patients admitted to ICU and mechanically ventilated.
Goals: 1. To check for frequency and type of arrhythmia in patients undergoing a medical procedure under local anesthesia 2. To examine whether the addition of adrenaline to local anesthesia affects the incidence of arrhythmias
This is a single center, retrospective, propensity score-matched analyzed study. Patients who underwent gastroscopy and colonoscopy for physical examination in Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, China, from January 2017 to September 2018, were retrospectively reviewed to compare the incidence of gastrointestinal diseases diagnosed by endoscopy between physicians and general population.
In this observational study, researchers want to gain more information on children suffering from abnormal stomach and intestine function (based on the Rome criteria) and treated Iberogast. The Rome criteria have been developed by experts to support doctors to diagnose stomach and intestine disorders. This study will focus on children aged from 3 to 14 years in age treated by their doctor with the herbal drug Iberogast for their stomach and intestine complaints for one week. Researcher want to learn more about the efficacy of Iberogast by observing the changes of symptoms related to the stomach and intestine disorders. In addition information on the safety of the drug and how well the drug is tolerated by the patients will be collected.
To study the effects of two combination therapies for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have been both intolerant to Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) therapy and sub-therapeutic to oral appliance therapy. Hypothesis 1. There is a difference between Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) vs CPAP/Oral Appliance (OA) connect vs CPAP/OA disconnected in terms of: 1. Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) reduction 2. Amount of side effects 3. Amount of Leaks 4. Hours of use (compliance) 5. CPAP pressure 2. There is a difference between connected and disconnected for the following symptoms: 1. Epworth sleepiness Scale (ESS) 2. Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ) 3. Side effects Study Design - randomized prospective parallel
This study is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral ibrexafungerp (formerly "SCY-078") compared to placebo in female subjects 12 years and older with recurrent VVC (RVVC).
Aim: To develop the Mobile Diabetic Foot Personal Care System (m-DAKBAS) related to foot care for diabetic individuals and to evaluate its effectiveness. Method: The study involved 88 patients who applied to the Diabetes Polyclinic (intervention=44; control=44). While the intervention group used m-DAKBAS (for 6 months), the control group was provided with a verbal foot care training once, as a standardized procedure of the hospital. Data were collected using the "Socio-demographic Form", "Diabetic Foot Knowledge Form - DFKF", "Foot Self Care Behaviours Scale -FSCBS", "Diabetic Foot Care Self Efficacy Scale - DFCSES", and "m-DAKBAS Assessment Form".
