Filter by:This study is design to assess two levels of dietary sodium intake in the treatment of patients with Acute Decompensated Heart Failure.
HPV-303 is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 study of VGX-3100 delivered intramuscularly (IM) followed by electroporation (EP) delivered with CELLECTRA™ 5PSP in adult women with histologically confirmed high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 [CIN2] or grade 3 [CIN3]) of the cervix, associated with HPV-16 and/or HPV-18.
In the presence of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) together with additional psychiatric diseases, the treatment process and prognosis of both ADHD and psychiatric comorbidity are adversely affected. The aim of this study is to compare the characteristics concerning the suicidal behavior of the patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) who have (ADHD+) or do not have (ADHD-) adult ADHD comorbidity and their responses to depression treatment. 96 inpatients were included in the study. Socio-demographic data form, Hamilton Depression Scale (HDRS), Wender Utah Rating Scale (WURS), Adult ADD/ADHD DSM IV- Based Diagnostic Screening and Rating Scale (A-ADHD), Personal and Social Performance Scale (PSP) were applied to the cases. In the study, depression starts at an early age in individuals with comorbid ADHD and the depression treatment progress changes negatively. This group of patients is at greater risk in terms of suicidal behavior. For these reasons, clinicians should be careful during ADHD and depression management in adults.
Esophageal balloon calibration (EBC) has been proposed during controlled mechanical ventilation in intubated patients in order to optimize esophageal pressure (Pes) signal. Actually, at our knowledge, no data exist about EBC during assisted ventilatory modes such as Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV). The primary endpoint of the present investigation is to assess the feasibility of EBC during PSV and PSV plus Sigh.
Greater Trochanteric Pain syndrome (GTPS) is a debilitating condition causing pain on the outside of the hip. This study aims to explore the experiences, beliefs and expectations of patients with GTPS, using semi-structured interviews.
The purpose of this study is to describe the 2-year retention rate of ibrutinib treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in Italian routine clinical practice.
Haemo-autologous Antegrade Repriming (HAR) is a procedure based in the combination of evidence proven measures designed to reduce the haemodilution caused by establishing the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during cardiac surgery. This clinical trial aims to determinate, in one hand, the benefits related to HAR in terms of transfusion, ICU stay, ventilation time, early mortality and complications. In the other hand analyzes the gaseous microemboli (GME) load, comparing the oxygenators venting technology´s efficiency in treatment and control group, and its relation with patient´s neurocognitive status.
Learning to navigate the US health system is challenging for many new immigrants. This pilot study will determine whether an intervention to teach parents key skills needed to access health care for children is feasible and acceptable to immigrant parents. This study will also look for evidence of efficacy to inform the planning process for future, larger evaluations of the intervention (i.e., estimate effect sizes).
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) with a overall prevalence of 5.3% is one of the most common neurobehavioral disorders in children. In the foreign literature, many studies bring to light in children and adolescents the negative impact of ADHD on overall quality of life. Some of these studies were able to identify the fact that the higher the age of ADHD children or adolescents, the lower the quality of life. Currently, to our knowledge, only a few European studies have demonstrated the negative impact of ADHD on the quality of life of children and adolescents. In addition, these studies used only questionnaires intended for parents and not for children or adolescents. During a regular follow-up consultation with their referent child psychiatrist, adolescents accompanied by at least one of their parents will be informed of the modalities of our study. A newsletter will be delivered to parents and one to the adolescent. If neither the adolescent nor the parents is opposed to participate, the child psychiatrist will register the patient on the list of study participants. He will also fill out a medico-social information sheet about the adolescent as to summarize the data in the medical record. At the end of this consultation, in the waiting room, adolescents will answer questionnaires KIDSCREEN-27 and MSPSS; their parents will complete the CBCL questionnaire. These questionnaires will be handed to the secretary who will put them back in the patient's record. The KIDSCREEN-27, MSPSS and CBCL questionnaires as well as the medico-social information sheet will be source documents. The principal investigator or one of the associates investigators will complete the case report form from these source documents. For this purpose the data will be entered anonymously into a data entry software on a computer server secured by the Centre Psychothérapique de Nancy (CPN). Then, anonymous data from the software will be forwarded to Dr. Epstein of the Clinical Investigation Center for statistical analysis. The study will begin when the favourable opinion of the Ethical Research Comittees will be obtained and the study will last one year.
Patients who have acute myeloid leukemia and will undergo haplo-identical donor hematopoeitic cell transplantation (haplo HCT) are potential candidates of this trial. Participants will randomized into two arms: Arm A will undergo a typical haplo HCT, while Arm B will receive an coinfusion of an unrelated cord blood unit (haplo-cord HCT) in addition to Arm A. Progression-free survival, overall survival, cumulative incidence of relapse and nonrelapse mortality will be recorded as endpoints.
