Filter by:In summary, the investigators propose to study elite Croatian breath-hold and SCUBA divers. The investigators will quantify breath-hold hypoxia- and SCUBA diving-induced pulmonary hypertension and right heart function to investigate the relationships between PFO and IPAVA blood flow. The investigators will use a placebo-controlled intervention (sildenafil) to reduce pulmonary arterial pressure in these subjects to examine the impact of the change in pressure (or absence of change) on the relationships determined above.
Study is to evaluate the efficacy of treatment Radio Frequency in premature jowl and neck laxity following facialplasty
The investigators intend to recruit 50 patients into an intradialytic exercise study that will measure the impact of resistance bands exercises under the guidance of an exercise physiologist on the physical function of hemodialysis patients.
The primary purpose of this project is to evaluate effects in healthy humans on glucose tolerance of cereal products with high amounts of fermentable dietary fibre. Secondary issues are to investigate effects of the test foods on subjective appetite variables, mood variables and gut microbiota composition. The test food products will be consumed in the evening and test variables will be determined the next morning. The study will apply a randomized crossover study design.
This trial studies the use of genetics and shared decision making in improving care for patients with stage IVA-C non-small cell lung cancer. Developing educational tools may help patients with non-small cell lung cancer to increase patient treatment knowledge, reduce decisional conflict, and promote treatment shared decision making with their health care providers.
The study is conducted to assess several sonographic parameters for prediction of labor induction success. These parameters include cervical length, fetal head circumference, and fetal head to cervix angle.
Introduction. The application of new technologies for cognitive rehabilitation has increased over the last years and has enabled occupational therapists to work more efficiently, minimizing costs and time for analysis, management, and design of activities. Objective. The purpose of the present study was to assess the effect of cognitive intervention using the web platform Neuronup in a group of elderly subjects; the study is based on the dependent variables (memory, attention, and language) analyzed with the abbreviated Barcelona Test. Subjects and Methods. Aquasi-experimental design was carried out with subjects assigned to two groups: a control group (20 subjects) and an experimental group (20 subjects). The abbreviated Barcelona Test was administered to assess patients before and after the intervention with this software to draw conclusions.
This is an open-label, single-arm study of ATG-010 (selinexor) plus low-dose Dexamethasone (Sd) in patients with multiple myeloma previously treated with lenalidomide and bortezomib refractory to prior treatment with immunomodulatory agents and proteasome Inhibitors.
The study aims to: 1) investigate the effects of cognitive training (CT) and combined CT and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on food intake and 2) to further understand its neuropsychological and neurophysiological basis (i.e. EEG) as well as its impact in endocannabinoids (EC) in a sample of morbidly obese patients seeking for a gastric bypass surgery
To date, the investigators have successfully employed a radiotracer (18F-sodium fluoride) as a marker of necrotic inflammation in human atherosclerosis. The investigators aim to further the mechanistic understanding of atherothrombosis by studying the activation of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors in cardiovascular thrombus using the novel platelet radiotracer (18F-GP1). Binding of 18F-GP1 to activated platelets in venous and arterial thrombi has already been demonstrated in pre-clinical studies and a phase 1 trial in man. If successful, this study would define the role of the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor within in vivo thrombosis across a range of cardiovascular diseases.
