Filter by:Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a post-traumatic chronic pain condition characterized by pain and other symptoms typically affecting a distal limb. Relatively little is known about the prognosis of the course of CRPS .Currently there is no specific test to diagnose CRPS. The primary objective of the study is to investigate prospectively the evolution of CRPS and the impact of the psychosocial factors on health status, recovery, quality of life, and working status of CRPS patients. The secondary objective of the study is to measure blood parameters in CRPS patients to investigate their evolution during the course of CRPS, and maybe to identify distinctive biomarkers associate with CRPS and that could be potential candidate for diagnosis.
Medical functional imagery seems to demonstrate that patients suffering from complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) have cortical modifications that alter their motor (or mental) imagery capacities. Nowadays, the use of motor imagery exercises are used in conventional rehabilitation treatments. But, in clinical practice, no study has verified if patients with CRPS desmonstrate problems in their motor imagery capacities. The MIQ-RS (Motor Imagery Questionnaire - Revised Second) is a valid, reliable and translated into French questionnaire to measure patients' capacities to do mental imagery. In this study, we compare 3 groups of 50 patients : healthy patients, patients with CRPS and patients with musculoskeletal disorder without CRPS. Every patient will take the MIQ-RS for the right and left body side. We hypothesis that patients with CRPS have more deficit than the 2 others to realise motor imagery.
Most of previous studies are cross-sectional studies, and rarely explore the changes in physical activity, mental state, cognitive and motor functions over time after a fall. Therefore, we hope to find out what changes in the elders' physiological and psychological functions after a fall.
This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TCM syndrome differentiation treatment on the rehospitalization rate of discharged elderly patients with community acquired pneumonia(CAP)and to explore its mechanism.
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are malignant hematopathies of the elderly characterized by persistent cytopenias and the presence of deregulated clonal hematopoiesis. The risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is variable. Acquired cytogenetic abnormalities are found in less than 50% of de novo cases and up to 80% in secondary MDS. The deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5 (written del(5q)) is the most common abnormality in MDS (15%). Del(5q) MDS has a good prognosis, with a median survival of 6 years and a 15% risk of progression to AML. However, their life expectancy is shorter than the general population, and the quality of life of patients is diminished. These treatments are not that effective over a long period of time or not well tolerated, and the majority of patients die from causes related to their MDS, such as infections (38%), progression to AML (15%), or bleeding (13%). Two genes, RBM22 and SLU7, coding for proteins of the same complex involved in splicing pre-messenger RNA are carried on the long arm of chromosome 5. We investigate the pronostic impact and the predictive value of the double haploinsufficiency of the RBM22 and SLU7 genes in del(5q) myelodysplastic syndromes isolated or not compared to the single haploinsufficiency of RBM22 and normal karyotype myelodysplastic syndromes.
This study is intended to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ANX005 administered by intravenous (IV) infusion to participants recently diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS). The total duration of study participation is approximately 6 months.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder, with a prevalence of 5% to 15% in premenopausal women. Patients with PCOS presents as abnormal menstruation, ovulation disorders and/or hyperandrogenemia, and often accompanied by insulin resistance and other metabolic abnormalities. Metformin has been clarified as an option in patients with PCOS. However, the clinical responses to metformin are limited and different. Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are novel drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, with weight loss, reducing insulin resistance and cardiovascular benefits. Limited data is available on the efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with PCOS.
Prospective multi-site randomized sham-controlled crossover feasibility study evaluating tolerability and efficacy of noninvasive peripheral nerve stimulation (NPNS) for patients with moderate-severe primary Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Response to NPNS investigational device was compared to sham control in a 2x2 crossover design such that subjects were assigned to receive 2 weeks of NPNS and 2 weeks of sham, in randomized order.
Introduction: The prevalence and clinical significance of central adrenal insufficiency (CAI) in adult patients with Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS) remains unclear. Aim: To assess the prevalence of CAI in adults with PWS and to analyse the effects of replacement therapy with hydrocortisone (HCT) in patients with suspected CAI. Material and Methods: Twenty one adult patients with PWS were evaluated. Based on peak cortisol at the 30 minute of the high dose short Synacthen test (HDSST), patients were divided into three groups: CAI (central adrenal insufficiency) - peak cortisol <500nmol/L, intermediate (partial AI) - peak cortisol ≥500 nmol/L and <600 nmol/L and AS (adrenal sufficiency) - peak cortisol ≥ 600 nmol/L. In patients with diagnosed CAI HCT replacement treatment was initiated. Body weight, body fat percentage, signs, and symptoms of CAI were evaluated after 6 and 12 months of treatment.
This is a first exploration of GLPG3970 in participants with active primary Sjogren's Syndrome (pSS) to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability and to determine its pharmacokinetics (PK) profile compared to placebo.
