Filter by:In this randomized controlled trial (RCT), the investigators will determine whether a 6-month course of oral Micronized Purified Flavonoid Fraction (MPFF 1000 mg daily), compared with placebo, improves the symptoms and signs of the post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) and quality of life (QOL) at 6 months follow-up.
The Investigators will conduct a longitudinal, mixed-methods cohort study to assess primary and secondary psychosocial outcomes among 705 MyCode pediatric participants and their parents, and health behaviors of parents whose children receive an adult- or pediatric-onset genomic result. Data will be gathered via quantitative surveys using validated measures of distress, family functioning, quality of life, body image, perceived cancer/heart disease risk, genetic counseling satisfaction, genomics knowledge, and adjustment to genetic information; qualitative interviews with adolescents and parents; and electronic health records review of parents' cascade testing uptake and initiation of risk reduction behaviors. The investigators will also conduct empirical and theoretical legal research to examine the loss of chance doctrine and its applicability to genomic research.
Impaired pulmonary function, decreased physical activity, functional capacity and depending on these factors are reported in patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia in recent studies. The purpose of this study to evaluate the effects of game based approach on pulmonary function, functional capacity and quality of life in patients with primary ciliary dykinesia.
This is a pilot study aimed at assessing the effects of moderate dose omega-3-acid ethyl esters capsules (generic Lovaza) on molecular, and intestinal microbiota changes in participants at high risk for colorectal cancer. The study will be a single arm, open label study.
The study is evaluating the effect of combining Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation (GVS) with standard Physiotherapy treatment in patients admitted to a neurological rehabilitation unit with Pusher syndrome (PS). Patients will be randomised to receive standard Physiotherapy treatment or standard treatment with GVS. Perceived verticality data will also be collected and analysed on age-matched controls. This data will be used to compare these results with the patients with PS. The investigators hypothesis that GVS and standard Physiotherapy treatment will lead to a greater improvement in functional ability and awareness of perceived verticality compared to standard Physiotherapy alone.
Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is characterized by profound infantile hypotonia, growth delay, cognitive impairment, muscle weakness and exercise intolerance. Studies have suggested that a defect in energy metabolism, yet to be clarified, may be involved in its pathogenesis. Many PWS patients have received Coenzyme Q10, but the rationale for this and objective impact on cellular metabolism has not been clarified.
Efficacy of T2769 in Dry Eye Desease
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is increasing rapidly in Egyptian people and manifesting a younger age. Higher plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), is a major predictor for the development of CAD. However, whether oxidized-LDL (ox-LDL) can be used as a risk factor for myocardial infarction (MI) has not been fully investigated. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine the role of ox-LDL as a risk factor for the presence and clinical outcomes in patients with MI.
This is a pilot, proof-of concept investigator-initiated trial planned for 22 patients with the diagnosis of Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS). The study will compare efficacy of treatment using subcutaneous immunoglobulin therapy (SCIg) compared to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) therapy. The majority of IVIg naïve subjects (those not already receiving IVIg) are typically managed with non-immunotherapy mostly Gamma Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) -enhancing drugs such as Baclofen or Diazepam.
After undergoing restorative proctectomy for rectal cancer, many patients are left with significant bowel dysfunction, known as Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS). Increased LARS severity correlates with worse perceived global health status and quality of life (QoL). Among patients undergoing rectal resection with a permanent ostomy, there is evidence that supportive and educational interventions improve QoL, ostomy proficiency, self-efficacy and knowledge. However, evidence regarding the impact of such interventions in patients who undergo restorative proctectomy is lacking, despite the latter operation being far more frequently performed. The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the extent to which a LARS Patient-Centered Program impacts on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after restorative proctectomy for rectal cancer. This is a randomized-controlled muticenter trial that will include patients who have undergone restorative proctectomy for neoplastic disease (benign or malignant) located in the rectum (0-15cm from the anal verge) with a diverting ostomy and who are scheduled for ostomy closure.
