Filter by:Hemiparesis and/or hemiplegia is one of the most common clinical signs of stroke, characterized by partial or complete loss of motor function, resulting in varying degrees of impairment and disability. The aim of this study is evaluate the acute effects of application of phototherapy to detect if this therapeutic approach may be beneficial in gait and balance post-stroke individuals. For such, 10 volunteers, with a history of injury (stroke) between 6 months to 5 years, with deficit in functional capacity in the gait due spasticity of extensor muscles of the affected limb, specifically the Triceps Sural. The evaluation will consist of three-dimensional gait analysis, muscle activity during gait, mobility, static and functional balance, and mobility of volunteers.
Millions of sport related concussions (SRC) occur yearly in the United States, and current diagnosis of concussion is based upon largely subjective clinical evaluations. The objective of this study is to determine whether urinary metabolites are significantly altered post SRC. Urine of 26 athletes will be analyzed pre-injury and after SRC by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Data will be analyzed using multivariate statistics, pairwise t-test, and metabolic pathway analysis. Variable Importance Analysis based on random Variable Combination (VIAVC) was used to select what features are present out of 224 features. Partial least squares discriminant analysis was performed leading to separation between pre-season and post-SRC groups. A Receiver Operator Curve (ROC) curve will be constructed to classify the features. Pathway topology analysis will also be completed to determine biological pathways are potentially affected following SRC.
The ImpleMentAll (IMA) project aims to examine the effectiveness of tailored implementation compared to usual implementation of Internet-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (iCBT) for patients suffering from common mental disorders in routine practice. Common mental health disorders account for an alarming proportion of the global burden of disease. Being regarded as an evidence-based psychotherapeutic eHealth intervention, Internet- based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (iCBT), has the potential to answer to this societal challenge by providing an efficacious and efficient treatment from which more people can benefit. ImpleMentAll will develop, apply, and evaluate tailored implementation strategies in the context of on-going eHealth implementation initiatives in the EU and beyond. The objectives are: 1. To develop a generic Integrated Theory-based Framework for Intervention Tailoring Strategies (the ItFits-toolkit) for data-driven tailored implementation of evidence-based eHealth services. 2. To demonstrate the impact of the ItFits toolkit on the implementation of eHealth for common mental disorders. 3. To disseminate the validated toolkit in various healthcare contexts across Europe. Following a stepped-wedge trial design, the ItFits-toolkit will be introduced in twelve implementation sites in nine countries, and evaluated for its effectiveness in obtaining implementation success. An in-depth process evaluation using a realist evaluation methodology will provide information about the particularities of tailored implementation and the application of the ItFits-toolkit in real implementation work. The resulting ItFits-toolkit will enable data driven evaluation of eHealth implementation projects and its methods, materials, and strategies will provide concrete guidance on tuning implementation interventions to local determinant of practice across a variety of health care systems.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of Apatinib Combined With Vinorelbine Used for Driver Gene Mutation Negative Third-line and Third-line Posterior Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
The purpose of this study was to determine the bioequivalence of two azilsartan formulations after administration of single doses to healthy subjects under fasted and fed conditions. These data were to be evaluated statistically to determine if the products meet bioequivalence criteria.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single dose of tecarfarin in healthy Chinese Volunteers. the Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of tecarfarin will also be evaluated.
Congenital epileptic encephalopathies (EE) are predominantly genetic in origin. Their diagnosis is hampered by the large number of genes involved and their low recurrence. Genetic study in routine diagnosis is limited by the existing techniques and the development costs. The routine diagnostic implementation of high throughput sequencing pushes these limits. High throughput exome sequencing (ES) showed superior diagnostic performance in all diagnostic settings studied. This pilot study is dedicated to evaluating the diagnostic performance of high throughput ES in EE, with an implementation and analysis strategy allowing for a direct transfer to routine diagnostics. This novel approach should improve the diagnostic rate while reducing the diagnostic cost per patient.
Brain Cavernous Angiomas with Symptomatic Hemorrhage (CASH) are rare, but they exact a heavy burden of neurologic disability from recurrent bleeding, for which there is no proven therapy. This trial readiness project aims to address current critical obstacles in identifying cases at multiple sites, characterizing their relevant features, and measuring their outcome. The timing cannot be more opportune, with therapeutic targets already identified, exceptional collaboration among researchers and with the patient community, and several drugs ready to benefit from a track to clinical testing in the next five years.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of INCAGN02390 in participants with select advanced malignancies.
The purpose of this study is to compare scapular muscle endurance (SME), shoulder pain, and functionality of patients with rotator cuff related shoulder pain (RCRSP) with those in the age-gender matched healthy controls and to evaluate the relationship between SME with shoulder pain, and functional impairments in patients with RCRSP.
