Filter by:The project is planed to explore the impact of LTBP4 and other matrix protein and potentially related biomarkers on renal outcomes, cardiac outcomes and all-cause mortality in patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Over 7,000 people in the UK are living with Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS). Approximately 1,600 of these individuals (23%) die each year from their disease. MDS affects the production of blood cells by the bone marrow, causing chronic fatigue, bleeding, and recurrent infections. Many patients die because their disease transforms into acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) an even more aggressive blood cancer. The general outlook for AML is poor, but when AML arises from MDS it is worse. REPAIR-MDS seeks to repurpose existing drugs in order to dramatically improve the outlook, health and quality of life of people with MDS. The trial treatments aim to improve the production of healthy functioning blood and immune cells that will fight against infections and boost the immune system's action against the MDS clone. REPAIR-MDS design is a is a multicentre open label phase 2 randomised controlled trial which will compare VBaP (sodium valproate, bezafibrate, medroxyprogesterone) with danazol in patients who have received either Erythropoiesis Stimulating Agents (ESAs) and lost response, not responded to ESAs or are deemed unlikely to respond to ESAs.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of salt (NaCl) supplementation on serum potassium and clinical signs and symptoms in patients with Gitelman syndrome.
This phase II trials studies the effect of treosulfan-based versus clofarabine-based conditioning regimens before donor hematopoietic stem cell transplant in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes or acute myeloid leukemia. Chemotherapy drugs, such as treosulfan, fludarabine, and clofarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor hematopoietic stem cell transplant helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into a patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make more healthy cells and platelets and may help destroy any remaining cancer cells. This study may help doctors determine whether treosulfan-based or clofarabine-based conditioning regimen works better before donor hematopoietic stem cell transplant in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes or acute myeloid leukemia.
Sotos Syndrome (SS) and Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) are known as overgrowth syndromes as they involve an excessive growth of the whole body or of specific body parts. Beyond their primary physical problems, people with SS and BWS could present cognitive delay, socio-emotional and social behavior difficulties. For the SS, previous research reported impairments in specific neuropsychological domains and alterations of social behavior. Nevertheless, a description of the neuropsychological and behavioral profile in developmental age is still lacking. For the BWS, only in recent years alterations in social-cognitive development and in social behavior have started to gain attention of clinicians and researchers. However, no study has investigated the neuropsychological and behavioral functioning of children and adolescents with BWS. In this light, this research project aims at providing the first detailed description of the neuropsychological and behavioral profile of children and adolescents with SS and BWS. Moreover, patients with SS and BWS experience structural alterations of their bodies and are early exposed to invasive diagnostical and medical procedures, which could interfere with the development of body representation. Body representation starts forming early in life through the integration of exteroceptive and interoceptive information, and plays a pivotal role in the social-cognitive development. Given the changes occurring in puberty and the crucial importance of body image in the relationship with peers, adolescence could be seen as a critical period for studying body representation. Thus, this project would investigate body representation at multiple levels (i.e. body image, body schema and interoceptive perception) and evaluate their impact on social-cognitive abilities in adolescents with SS and BWS. It is expected that both the clinical groups show alterations of body representation compared to healthy peers, and that these alterations could associate with impairments in affect recognition and regulation.
The study aims to evaluate the effect of low load resistance training combined with blood flow restriction or sham blood flow restriction in patients with anterior knee pain and rotator cuff related shoulder pain in a cross-over two-arm randomized, participant and assessor blinded design. More specifically, we aim to investigate the acute and short-term hypoalgesic response (by evaluating pressure pain detection thresholds) of low load exercise with blood flow restriction or sham blood flow restriction, the effect of these interventions in pain during clinical testing, and the possibility of a placebo effect.
The current study intends to establish a prediction method and evaluation system for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) complicated with affective disorder, such as depression and anxiety, through the epidemiological investigation. Randomized controlled studies on the efficacy of various intervention methods should be carried out to develop early intervention measures and methods in order to reduce the harm of psychological disorders, to facilitate the mental health of PCOS patients, and thus to improve the quality of life.
In preterm infants with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), exogenous pulmonary surfactant(PS) replacement therapy is one of the most important therapeutic breakthrough to reduce neonatal incidences of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) and/or death. But not all preterm infants with RDS can be beneficial. Otherwise, the international neonatal acute RDS (NARDS) collaborative group provides the first consensus definition for NARDS in 2017. And whether or not PS being beneficial in preterm infants with NARDS remains unknown.
In order to obtain suitable exercise intervention model for children and adolescents with obese or metabolic syndrome in China, we conduct a RCT to examine the effects of different intensity exercise intervention on weight, and other cardiometabolic risk factors among children and adolescents, we also test the effects of exercise interventions on multi-omics such as metabolomics, gut microbiome, genetics, and explore the potential mechanisms by which exercise interventions modulate cardiometabolic risk. This is a randomized controlled study. Children and adolescents with obesity or metabolic syndrome were randomly divided into three groups, including low intensity exercise training group, moderate and intermittent high intensity exercise training group. The investigators will obtain organ hydrodynamics indexes by abdominal ultrasound and computational fluid dynamics technology, and obtain the metabolic regulation mechanism of the body in response to exercise through the detection of metabolism related small molecules in blood and urine and the analysis of intestinal flora, so as to explore the potential value and mechanism of different exercise modes in the treatment of obesity and metabolic syndrome. At the same time, the behavior and self-consciousness of children and adolescents will be investigated to obtain the suitable exercise intervention model for Chinese children and adolescents with obesity and metabolic syndrome. In conclusion, this study aims to demonstrate which exercise mode can alleviate obesity or reverse metabolic diseases, analyze which factors can sense exercise, and explore the potential mechanisms through mutil-omic approach, so as to improve metabolic syndrome.
The aim of this study is to analyse the correlation between actigraphy and Lipsitz scoring system in neonatal opioid abstinence syndrome of hospitalized newborn in intensive care units
