Filter by:The investigators prospectively evaluated long-term outcomes of ELBPD+EST for CBD stones up to 8-12mm. EPBD+EST in patients with CBD stones up to 8-12mm appears to be associated with a very low (<3%) rate of long-term stone recurrence. The efficacy of EPBD for 8-12mm stones warrants further exploration in randomized trials.
Between 2010 and 2012, 33 children and adolescents (39 knees) with recurrent patellar dislocation were treated with MPFL reconstruction using the adductor magnus tendon.The aim of the study is to assess the effectiveness of this surgical procedure in long follow-up. The outcomes will be evaluated functionally (Lysholm knee scale, the Kujala Anterior Knee Pain Scale, and isokinetic examination) and radiographically (Caton-Deschamps index, sulcus angle, congruence angle, and patellofemoral angle). This is a continuation of the research published in 2015 with longer follow-up at least 10 years. All available patients will be evaluated with the same protocol, using the same methods and devices. Functional outcome is planned to be measured with scales as above. In radiological assessment Merchant and lateral knee weight bearing view and additionally MRI will be performed. Isokinetic test will be performed in two speeds of 60 and 180 deg/s. Most of important isokinetic parameters such as peak torque, torque in 30 deg, time to peak torque, peak torque to body weight both for quadriceps and hamstrings will be measured and compared to those from former research. Dedicated statistical test will be used for both: analysis of present status and differences from former results.
According to the definition of National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a less common subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) . The preliminary trial ANNIE (NCT04376073) shows a promising efficacy and safety profile for the ANNIE combo (anlotinib+niraparib). There is limited progress in targeted therapy for those less common ovarian cancers. In this study (CC-ANNIE), we aim to evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of niraparib combined with anlotinib in patients with platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory OCCC.
Purpose : The primary goals of this study were to determine the prevalence and risk factors of occult CBC and recurrence, as well as the relationship between occult cysto-biliary communications manifested as postoperative biliary leakage and recurrence. The secondary goal was to use chemical analysis of hydatid cyst fluid to assess excessive bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase levels as predictors of fistula and recurrence. Methods: This prospective multi-center experimental and follow-up study of six years duration was conducted at the hepato-biliary pancreatic units of our universities hospitals from September 2010 to September 2016. Initially, 292 patients were included, but only 244 patients enrolled in the final study.
Objective: "Decentering" is defined as the ability to observe one's thoughts and feelings as temporary, objective events in the mind, and is increasingly regarded as a candidate mechanism in mindfulness-based interventions. The current study sought to examine the role of decentering, and other related variables, in the efficacy of Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) as compared to two active comparison conditions. Method: Formerly depressed individuals (N = 227), randomly assigned to MBCT (n = 74), relaxation group therapy (RGT; n = 77) or treatment-as-usual (TAU; n = 76), completed self-report measures of decentering and symptoms of depression at pre-, mid-, and post-treatment, and relapse was assessed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months, post-treatment.
This study aims to find recurrence rate of the trigeminal neuralgia after patients undergo stereotactic rhizotomy by radiofrequency ablation at 80 degrees Celsius for 90 seconds under fluoroscopic guidance, a protocol that was modified from the originally described parameters for rhizotomy by John Tew, Chad J. Morgan and Andresw Grande et al. The presumption being that the higher temperature of the probe tip would lead to a more long-lasting lesion and lesser recurrence, but at the cost of more frequent sensory and motor deficits.
It was a randomized controlled trial conducted at department of Urology, Armed Forces Institute of Urology, Rawalpindi from 1st January, 2018 July 2019 to 31st March 2021 to determine the role of oral steroids after Direct Vision Internal Urethrotomy to reduce the recurrence rate of urethral strictures.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia worldwide. It carries a significant health burden, conferring on sufferers a reduction in quality of life, risk of significant morbidities such as stroke and heart failure, and significant mortality. At present, diagnosis of AF involves referral for conventional 12 lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recording, ambulatory ECG for fixed time period recording, or insertion of implantable loop recorders (ILR). These investigations are limited both by recording only at specific time points and failing to explore the interaction between heart rate and day-to-day physical activity. In recent years, the use of mobile health (mHealth) devices has emerged as a direct-to-consumer option for monitoring parameters such as heart rate and activity levels. From a clinical perspective they potentially offer a less invasive and cost-effective investigative approach, with remote monitoring solution to identify and possibly predict AF. In this study, the investigators propose to recruit participants who have undergone an ablative procedure as part of a randomised clinical trial (LoTO in CASA LSPAF: NCT04280042) and monitor for recurrence of AF using mHealth technology by correlating with ILR data.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness Secnidazole to treat recurrent BV. Secnidazole is approved for one-time use in acute BV. In this study, the drug will be used for recurrent BV, and given weekly for 18 weeks.
The investigators recruited 1542 Breast Cancer (BC) patients and to randomize the participants in two groups: 773 have received standard recommendations for healthy lifestyle without, however, any active support; 700 have received a combination of individual and group contacts over the course of one year, including kitchen courses, gym and dance classes, common meals and reinforcing meetings, with emphasis on a comprehensive dietary change including low saturated fat and low refined carbohydrates, and high whole grain cereals and pulses consumption. Compliance have been monitored through weight change and plasma glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol and testosterone. The main analysis will be by intention to treat. Under the hypothesis of reducing recurrence rate by 25% or 33% the statistical power of the study is 80% or, respectively, 90%, (P<0.05, 5-year follow-up).
