Filter by:This is an observational and prospective cohort study to examine whether the addition of IVUS plaque morphological evaluation to FFR haemodynamic assessment of non-culprit lesions in NSTEACS patients will better predict MACEs.
Background: Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a common disorder. Some studies have indicated that acupuncture may ameliorate the symptoms of CP/CPPS. However, results are varied and range widely, perhaps due to different modes of assessment including timepoints, places of assessment, and especially subjective scales. We propose to determine the efficacy of acupuncture relative to sham acupuncture for patients with CP/CPPS, and compare different modes of assessment regarding the therapeutic effects of acupuncture. Methods: Sixty patients with CP/CPPS will be randomly assigned to receive either acupuncture or sham-acupuncture (30 patients, each). Treatment will be conducted 3 times/week, for 4 weeks. The primary outcomes will each be the change from baseline of the total NIH (National Institutes of Health) CPSI (Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index) score associated with 3 modes of assessment: Mode 1, the scale recorded at the hospital within 10minutes after the last session of 4 weeks of acupuncture treatment, in the company of the outcome assessors; Mode 2, the scale recorded the same day, but not at the hospital; and Mode 3, the scale recorded at the hospital 1 to 3 days after the last acupuncture session. The 3 key secondary outcomes include will be the 3 modes assessment of the changes from baseline of the NIH-CPSI total scores in the acupuncture group at week 4 after treatment. Analysis was by intention-to-treat, and multiplicity was controlled for with a step-down closed-testing procedure.
The prevalence of cardiac arrests is still high worldwide. Despite the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), mortality and morbidity in post cardiac arrest patients is reported high. Comprehensive management is essential in treating patients with post cardiac arrest syndrome. Adequate circulatory stability is achieved with fluid therapy, vasoactive drug therapy, and consideration of mechanical support. Intra-Aortic Ballon Pump (IABP) is one of the most feasible and available mechanical support in developing countries including Indonesia. There are several benefits of IABP reported in acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock. Nevertheless, the IABP-SHOCK II study revealed contradictive result which is IABP support was not improving mortality in acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock after revascularization. Other study, Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR), also reported no benefits of IABP support in cardiogenic shock patients. But, the study the investigators mentioned earlier is a registry study, attributed to selection bias and several confounding factors resulting mismatch in population. There are no consideration to IABP time of initiation and duration of use in both studies. The Investigator is aiming to prove the early insertion of IABP to a better outcome compared with the absence of early IABP. The objective of the study is to assess mortality in post cardiac arrest syndrome patients with early insertion of IABP support. A total of 102 subjects will be enrolled in this study, divided into IABP and non-IABP group. The primary outcome is in-hopital-mortality, and various indicators in the pathomechanisme of post cardiac arrest syndrome will be measured in 30 minutes and 6 hours after ROSC. Effective lactate clearance, IL-6, Beclin-1, Caspase-3, a-vO2 diff, and ScvO2, cardiac output, VTI, TAPSE and ejection fraction will be measured and analized between the two groups.
This study aim to manufacture bread and pasta with an reduced content of gluten and to assess the impact of reducing the daily intake of gluten by 50% in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients. Fungal proteases and selected sourdough lactic acid bacteria will be used for making wheat bread and pasta with a reduced content of gluten (RG) (-50% of traditional products). From a technological point of view, the chemical, structural and sensory features of the RG products approached those of the bread and pasta made with normal level of gluten. The efficacy and safety of new products will be compared to traditional bread and pasta by using a double blind randomized, crossover-controlled trial in IBS patients with persistent gastrointestinal symptoms. Patients will follow two weeks of a GFD diet containing RG bread and pasta and two weeks of GFD diet containing Normal Gluten bread and pasta Symptoms severity will be assessed by Irritable Bowel Syndrome Severity Score (IBS-SS), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality of Life (IBS-QoL).
This study aims to investigate the prevalence of subclinical oculomotor disorders in a population of patients with radiologically isolated syndrome.
The main aim is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of soticlestat when used along with other anti-seizure treatment. Participants will receive soticlestat twice a day. Participants will visit the study clinic every 2-6 months throughout the study. Study treatments may continue as long as the participant is receiving benefit from it.
In the randomized controlled study with patients who appropriate the inclusion criteria are divided into two groups by simple drawing method. In the control group, the classical physiotherapy program is being applied when the post-operative immobilization period ended, MT is applied to the mirror group in addition to this treatment for 20 minutes and a total of 10 sessions in the immobilization period. Patients who are scheduled for operation due to CTS evaluated that pain (VAS), sense (monofilament test), function (BCTQ, 9-hole peg test) before surgery, 3 weeks and 6 weeks after surgery.
Amla has demonstrated promising effects in the treatment of obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, insulin secretion, among others. The above mentioned findings show that Amla has an excellent potential for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome.
This 2 cohort, sequential, ascending dose study will assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of oral ketamine dosed in a single 5-day BID regimen in addition to placebo, in a 4-week cross-over design in patients with Rett Syndrome. Approximately 12 patients per cohort are anticipated to participate for approximately 8-10 weeks at approximately 7 US study centers.
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are multisystemic diseases with significant clinical overlap between their types, with cardiac problems being among the most commonly observed manifestations and are also among the main causes of mortality in these patients. For some of the cardiovascular manifestations, such as aortic root dilation and valve diseases, there is no effective treatment currently available. Losartan, on the other hand, has been shown to be an effective drug for dilation of the aortic root, at least in animal models. This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of losartan in patients with MPS VI and other mucopolysaccharidoses.
