Filter by:Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS), is characterised by pain around the greater trochanter. Failure of first-line management for GTPS is followed by second-line treatments range from extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), corticosteroid or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, and surgery. In a systematic reviews, PRP seems a viable effective and safe alternative option for GTPS after failed physical therapy. Also, positive results from previous systematic reviews involving radial ESWT (rESWT) as a treatment for GTPS. In the literature review, there is no comparison of the effectiveness of ESWT and PRP injection in patients with GTPS. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of rESWT and PRP injection on pain, hip disability, and quality of life in patients with GTPS
Different physiotherapy approaches and education programs are applied to minimize motor and mental impairment in children with Down syndrome (DS). The present study was conducted with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of two different physiotherapy approaches in babies with Down syndrome in the early period. A total of 23 babies with DS aged between 0-24 months were included in the study. Infants were randomly divided to two groups: Bobath therapy (BT) group included 12 infants (6 girls and 6 boys) and Vojta technique (VT) group included 11 infants (4 girls and 7 boys). The infants were applied a total of 12 sessions of physiotherapy (twice weekly during 6 weeks). Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) was used for comparison of motor development level before and after the therapy. Emotional status of the mothers was evaluated with Beck Depression Scale (BDS) and quality of life was evaluated with Nottigham Health Profile (NHP).
This study is a multicentric, prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial compared the efficacy of 6 months vs. 3 months of initial prednisolone therapy in decreasing the incidence of FRNS with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome in children age 1 year up to 6 years. Three months tapering prednisolone or placebo are administrated follow by open-label 3 months standard prednisolone therapy.The cumulative incidence of FRNS and adverse events for one year were evaluated in the 3-month and 6-month groups.
The aim of this study was to determine the level of salivary estradiol, progesterone and dehydroepiandrosterone in female postmenopausal women with and without burning mouth syndrome. In all participants the quantity of unstimulated and stimulated saliva would be determined and they would fulfill self-perceived quality of life questionnaire Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14). Intensity of burning symptoms would be determined on visual-analogue scale grading 0-10. All data would be compared between study and control group.
This phase I trial is to find out possible benefits and/or side effects of platelet rich plasma for the treatment of genitourinary syndrome of menopause in patients with stage 0-III breast cancer. Platelet rich plasma is produced by collecting approximately 60-90 ml (4-6 tablespoons) of blood from the vein in patients' arm. The blood is spun using a centrifuge that separates the plasma and red blood cells. This allows doctors to collect the platelet rich plasma that is then loaded into individual, sterile syringes for injection. Giving platelet rich plasma may help relief symptoms of genitourinary syndrome of menopause in patients with breast cancer.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of maintenance Mycophenolate Mofetil following single course of Rituximab in maintaining remission over 12 months among Children with frequently-relapsing or steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome
An open-label, single-arm, multi-centre program providing treatment access to ALGS patients with cholestatic pruritus in the US. Access can be requested through Clinigen Healthcare Ltd via email MirumALGS@clinigengroup.com or telephone +1-877-768-4303.
This clinical trial will enroll participants that have pneumonia caused by the COVID-19 virus. During the study patients will receive 7 to up to 14 days of defibrotide. After completing the treatment, participants will have 30 day follow-up check-up to assess for adverse events and clinical status. This final assessment can be done virtually, by telephone or electronically (email) if the patient cannot be contacted by phone. No in-person visit is required. The hypothesis of this trial is that defibrotide therapy given to patients with severe SARS-CoV2 ARDS will be safe and associated with improved overall survival, within 28 days of therapy initiation.
This study conducted an 8-week workplace nutrition education intervention to examine the effects of the intervention on metabolic syndrome factors associated with employees. A historical intervention was designed to recruit adults with a body mass index level of >22 and without any endocrine disorder from a community in Yilan, Taiwan. The intervention group was recruited between 2010 and 2012 and received an 8-week intervention, during which dietitians delivered a nutrition education session and a one-on-one dietary guidance session on a weekly basis. The age- and sex-matched control group (n = 34) was recruited between 2014 and 2015 to analyze the metabolic syndrome variables. The metabolic syndrome variables included blood pressure, blood sugar, serum lipid profile, and waist circumference.
Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is defined as a clinical entity originated from trauma or other conditions, and remains challenging to diagnose and treat effectively. Threre is the controversy in diagnosing, treating ACS. It was found that there was no criterion about the ACS, and result unnecessary osteotomy. The presence of clinical assessment (5P) always means the necrosis of muscles and was the most serious or irreversible stage of ACS. Besides pressure methods, the threshold of pressure identifying ACS was also controversial.
