Filter by:Current definitions of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) could be adequate for epidemiological studies but are not adequate for inclusion of patients into therapeutic clinical trials. It is a matter of debate whether the assessment of hypoxemia at ARDS onset is appropriate for stratifying lung severity and risk of death in ARDS patients. The investigators will perform an observational, non-interventional, multicenter, prospective audit in a network of intensive care units in Spain for evaluating the severity and risk of death based on the assessment of respiratory and ventilatory function at 24 hours after ARDS diagnosis under standardized ventilatory conditions. This study is the confirmatory phase of the study NCT02288949.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of omacetaxine in combination with azacitidine and G-CSF in patients with relapsed and/or refractory MDS.
The main goal of this French multicenter observational cohort study is to prospectively collect data assessing the impact of the Adaptative Servo-Ventilation treatment on the quality of sleep of patients with central or combined sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) out of Heart Failure (HF) with altered ejection fraction, with a predominant central SAS.
This study is being conducted to demonstrate that perampanel given as adjunctive anti-epileptic treatment is superior to placebo in reducing the number of drop seizures in participants with inadequately controlled seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS).
Premature infants frequently have trouble breathing after birth. If the respiratory disorder is caused by surfactant deficiency or dysfunction, the disease is treated with a medication called surfactant that is given to the infant through a tube inserted into the windpipe. This study will compare the safety of two of the commonly used surfactants, poractant and calfactant,in the United States. Poractant has added chemicals called phospholipids which are known to cause inflammation and irritation in the body of premature infants. The investigators will compare this to another similar surfactant that does not contain these chemicals by looking at samples from the windpipe, while the tube is in place, and from blood tests in the first few days of life. The investigators are hoping to learn whether calfactant is a safer therapeutic agent to treat respiratory distress syndrome in preterm infants compared to poractant.
The investigators aim to give an overview of Iron overload(IOL) of patients with AA and low and int-1 risk MDS and their sequelae under different chelation treatment. And the investigators also aim to evaluate the relationship of LIC and T2*/R2*.
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the prevalence of the following psychiatric pathologies (based on the MINI5.0.0 questionnaire) among 3 groups of women (Leiden versus aP1Ab-positive versus thrombophilia-negative) with similar obstetrical histories 10 years after their initial assessment/diagnosis. - Mood disorders, including depressive episodes during the previous two weeks, recurrent depressive disorders at any point in life, dysthymia in the last two years, or any current or past manic episode; - Anxiety disorders, including current agoraphobia, current panic disorders, agoraphobia with panic disorders, current social phobia, generalized anxiety in the last 6 months, or current posttraumatic stress syndrome; - Apparent psychotic syndromes, including isolated or recurrent psychotic syndromes, past or present (clinically validated), - Current alcohol or drug problems (dependence or abuse).
INTRODUCTION Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common condition that results in impaired hand function. In cases of CTS the "pinch grip" force between the thumb and index finger becomes unnecessarily high to prevent objects from slipping when they are picked up. HYPOTHESES The proposed study will investigate the following hypotheses regarding CTS. As an object is picked up, the investigators suspect there will be several points at which grip force will be different between patients with different severities of CTS, i.e. grip may deteriorate as CTS gets worse. The investigators also suspect grip force will be affected depending on the weight of the object, i.e. patients with CTS may struggle with objects of a certain weight. Patients with CTS sweat less, and this may affect their grip. The investigators suspect that pinch grip in CTS patients is disproportionately altered by the frictional properties of the object and by the moistness of the skin. The investigators suspect patients with CTS will be less able to adapt to sudden changes in an object's weight. The investigators wish to examine how the above are affected after surgical treatment of CTS. METHODS The investigators will include patients with symptomatic, idiopathic CTS, aged between 18 and 80 years. The investigators' centre will recruit CTS patients who will attend their National Health Service (NHS) outpatient appointment followed by nerve conduction studies. An equal number of healthy participants will be recruited for comparison purposes. At the aforementioned appointment, patients will undertake a pinch grip force test using a device that will test the above points. Patients will have normal care under their surgeon, which may include an operation for treatment of CTS. Therefore some patients will be invited back to have grip tests again after their operation. No aspect of the study will prevent a patient from receiving their normal National Health Service (NHS) care.
The goal of Part 1 of this clinical research study is to learn if ponatinib alone can help to control FLT3-mutated AML or FLT3-mutated high-risk MDS. The safety of this drug will also be studied. The goal of Part 2 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of ponatinib in combination with 5-azacytidine and to learn if the highest dose level found can help to control FLT3-mutated AML or FLT3-mutated high-risk MDS. The safety of this combination will also be studied.
Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a rare syndrome with a prevalence of 15 to 20 000 at birth. PWS represents a large fraction of mental retardation syndromes due to a genetic cause and the most frequent cause of genetic obesity. The majority of the patients are seen by paediatricians. This syndrome is responsible for severe physical, psychological and social impairments. The diversity and the severity of the manifestations of this disease explain the requirement of multidisciplinary care which deserve specific evaluation. Today the follow-up and management of a great proportion of these patients are greatly insufficient if not absent. Teams strongly lack information on the natural history of this severe disease and on the factors involved in its evolution and the outcome of these patients throughout life. The present project is to implement a register in the whole country for children and adult patients
