Filter by:Very few studies have evaluated the prevalence of small fiber neuropathy (SFN) during pathologies that may be responsible for small fibers damage. SUDOSCAN is a new rapid (2 minutes), automated, reproducible and non-invasive technology to assess small fiber neuropathy by sweat function. With quantitative and reproducible results, SUDOSCAN allows physicians to early detect and follow-up peripheral neuropathy to monitor disease progression and assess treatment efficacy for a better patient management. SUDOSCAN® could allow the identification of SFN in painful patients apart from another pathology already diagnosed responsible for SFN. The purpose of the study SUDOCU is to assess the prevalence of small fiber neuropathies (SFN) in patients with systemic autoimmune pathologies or unexplained pain syndrome.
This study aims to identify clinical and biological determinants and factors that predict outcome including primary outcome (percentage of changes in clinical scales pre- and after 3 months ) and secondary outcome depending on neurophysiologiacal studies and prognostic factors in individual patients with Guillain-Barre syndrome i individuals managed by plasmapheresis and IVIG immunoglobulin . This information will be used to understand the diversity in clinical presentation and response to treatment of GBS.
Mechanical ventilation and ECMO are both technologies interacting on gas exchange. Nevertheless, besides a consensus paper, no evidence-based guidelines regarding protective lung ventilation on ECMO exist to date. Mechanical Ventilation with Intellivent-ASV, an algorithm driven, closed loop system, provides an opportunity to standardize ventilation on ECMO. We propose and validate lung protective ventilation with a closed loop ventilation mode in patients with ECMO.
This study aims to investigate the feasibility of the use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for symptoms associated with Visual Snow syndrome (VS).
The purpose of this study is to test whether Lomecel-B™ works in treating patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and to gather additional information about the safety of Lomecel-B. Lomecel-B contains human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as the active ingredient. MSCs are special cells in the body that are able to change into other types of cells, such as heart, blood, and muscle cells. MSCs are found in various tissues of the body, such as the bone marrow, which is the spongy tissue inside of your bones. Lomecel-B uses MSCs from bone marrow of unrelated young healthy donors. These are called "allogeneic", and do not require donor matching to the patient.
Antisynthetase syndrome (ASS) is an overlap connective tissue disease characterized by the presence of myositis-specific autoantibodies directed against tRNA-synthetases. Clinical manifestations are myositis, interstitial lung disease (ILD), Raynaud's phenomenon, mechanic's hands and polyarthritis. Clinical presentation varies between ASS patients. ASS is potentially life threatening due to lung involvement, especially in rapidly progressive forms. Anti-histidyl-tRNA synthetase (anti-Jo1) antibodies are the most frequently detected antibodies in ASS (60 % of patients). Anti-threonyl-tRNA synthetase (anti-PL7) and alanyl-tRNA synthetase (anti-PL12) antibodies are each detected in 10 % of patients approximatively. Anti-tRNA-synthetases antibodies are mutually exclusive. Clinical heterogeneity of ASS patients appears to be associated with specific autoantibodies profile. Patients with anti-Jo1 antibodies have a more systemic presentation (especially with muscle involvement), whereas patients with anti-PL7 or anti-PL12 antibodies have more frequent and isolated ILD. If anti-PL7 and anti-PL12 antibodies are associated with more severe ILD and poorer survival is still matter of debate. Aims of this study were to compare ILD severity at diagnosis and clinical course in patients with ASS according to antisynthetase autoantibodies types.
Rotator cuff tendinopathy, one of the pathologies identified as part of the cluster of shoulder symptoms known as subacromial pain syndrome, is a common musculoskeletal shoulder condition. Resolution of pain and disability is poor despite treatment, with only about 50% reporting full recovery at 12 - 18 months. Prior studies suggest therapeutic exercise when used alone and with other interventions can have positive outcomes; however, not all patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy respond. Few studies have assessed the effects of exercise for individuals with chronic pain, especially brain driven mechanisms, thought to play a key role. In this study, we will use brain imaging to understand the mechanisms, identify predictors of a positive response to exercise, and the relationship to biomechanical and pain-related factors in patients with RC tendinopathy. The findings from this study will optimize the delivery and treatment response to exercise for individuals with shoulder pain.
Studies have suggested that Obese patients with metabolic syndrome(MetS)were correlated with knee joint degeneration and osteoarthritis. However, no studies demonstrate the relationship between obese patients with metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus lesions and its knee function.The aim is to detect the correlation between obese patients with metabolic syndrome and degenerate meniscus injuries.
Multicenter, multinational, randomized, 2-arm, double-blind, phase II clinical study with 2000mg mesalamine, or placebo for prevention of colorectal neoplasia in Lynch Syndrome patients during and following daily intake for 2 years.
This measurement validation study will use qualitative and quantitative methodology to evaluate the Observer-Reported Communication Ability Measure (ORCA), to appropriately capture communication abilities in individuals with Rett syndrome. The ORCA Measure is a caregiver-reported questionnaire that collects caregiver observations of their child's communication abilities including expressive, receptive and pragmatic communication types. Caregivers will participate via phone interviews and online surveys. Approximately 270 participants will be enrolled.
