Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is the most common syndromic cause of obesity. Individuals with PWS characteristically experience excessive weight gain and severe hyperphagia with food compulsivity in early childhood, which often leads to the onset of obesity and metabolic complications. The pathogenesis of hyperphagia and progressive weight gain in PWS is far from being understood, and thus efficacious interventions are still under development. Emerging evidence indicates an important etiological contribution of dysbiotic gut microbiota in the hyperphagia, obesity and metabolic abnormalities associated with PWS, implicating a potentially effective target for appetite control and alleviation of obesity in PWS. This study aims to evaluate whether dietary fibers can improve hyperphagia and metabolic profile in children with PWS, and further will determine if these improvements correlate with dietary-fiber-induced changes of the gut microbiota. Twenty children with PWS (age 5-17 years) will receive 3-week fiber or placebo treatment and 3-week alternate treatment with a 4-week washout period in between. A validated PWS-specific hyperphagia questionnaire will be used to assess the severity of hyperphagia in participants. Fasting blood and fecal samples will be collected for the analyses of appetite-related hormones, metabolic biomarkers, bacterial composition and gut metabolites. This study should provide potential new approaches for effective non-pharmacologic treatment of excessive weight gain and hyperphagia associated with PWS to improve overall health and quality of life in affected patients.
This research study is studying the combination of anakinra and axicabtagene ciloleucel to reduce the occurrence of the side effects Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and neurologic toxicities with relapsed or refractory Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). - Relapsed NHL is the condition of returned Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. - Refractory NHL is the condition of previous treatment resistant Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. - Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) is a group of side effect symptoms that can include nausea, headache, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, kidney damage, and rash. - Neurologic toxicity is nervous system disorder characterized by confusion This research study involves two drugs: - Anakinra - Axicabtagene Ciloleucel.
Today, patients express a very strong need to take into account the consequences of their disease and its treatments in their therapeutic follow-up. It is therefore essential to better understand the needs, expectations and values of patients with SBS in order to better understand the impact of the disease on their lives, and thus improve the conditions for medical, social, psychological and technical care. The clinical expertise of health professionals and meetings with patient associations demonstrate the major gap between the parameters taken into account by physician to evaluate the evolution of the SBS and the day-to-day experience of the disease perceived by the patient. The objective of the ARTEMIS-GC study is to develop and validate an instrument to measure the impact of SBS and its treatments on daily life from the perspective of patients.
Different studies for cardiac ganglionated plexus(GP) ablation to treat vagal vascular syncope, sinus node dysfunction, and functional atrioventricular block have been published. Investigators have developed a more specific approach of cardiac, called cardioneuroablation . This treatment is based on a high-frequency stimulation (HFS) and/or anatomical landmarks to identify GPs in left atrium,which being targeted by radiofrequency catheter ablation. The feasibility of GPs ablation/cardioneuroablation has already been tested in our center in former studies in humans,with a favorable outcome for the patients involved. The results of the former studies have been submitted for publication. However, there are no prospective randomized studies to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atrial ganglionated plexus ablation for SSS before permanent pacemaker implantation. The purpose of this study of GAPS in humans is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cardioneuroablation in patients of sick sinus syndrome before they receive a permanent pacemaker.
The primary objective is to characterize trajectories of change on the primary outcome measures in this study population through longitudinal collection of measures of cognition, function, behavior, and health status.
A Multi-Center, Phase 2/3, Randomized, Double-Masked, Parallel-Group, Vehicle-Controlled, Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Voclosporin Ophthalmic Solution (0.05%, 0.10%, 0.20%) Compared to Vehicle in Subjects with Dry Eye Syndrome.
Sarcopenia and frailty are two major syndromes in older adults. They are shown to be associated with low levels of functioning and higher rates of morbidity and mortality. In this study, we aim to report the prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty by using simple assessment methods such as SARC-F and FRAIL, respectively.
The thoracic outlet syndrome is a rare but debilitating pathology, responsible for upper limb pain. Its frequency is probably underestimated because of diagnostic difficulties. This syndrome encompasses several entities including compressions of neurological, venous or arterial origin. In addition to pain, the majority of patients report fatigability and loss of strength in the upper limbs. However, the quantification of this loss of strength and fatigability has hardly been studied. In addition, the rehabilitation treatment is the first-line treatment of this pathology. It most often includes a muscle building phase. In this project, we would like to evaluate the proximal and distal force of patients presenting a thoracic outlet syndrome by comparing them to a population free from any pathology in the upper limbs. This evaluation would involve an isokinetic strength analysis of shoulder rotators at the proximal level, using an isokinetic dynamometer. At the distal level, the evaluation would be done using force clamps.Similarly, performing a 6-minute walk test will assess whether there is a difference between patients and controls, which may also impact endurance in addition to the pathology. In a second step, we will also be able to evaluate the effects of the reeducation on the strength and the muscular fatigability of the patients presenting a thoracic outlet syndrome.
Proof of concept, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial with d-methadone proposed for the first time for use in the treatment of patients diagnosed with primary, moderate to very severe Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Its glutamatergic mechanism of action might be effective on RLS arousal pattern and sleep disturbance which highly impair the quality of life of RLS's patients. Patients will take the study drug/placebo once a day for 30 consecutive days.
