Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders. It has prevalence in general population of 5-20% and is more common in women and young adults. Despite being one of the most frequent reasons for consultation many patients are undiagnosed. There are no reliable biomarkers. The diagnosis is clinical, based on the Rome III criteria. IBS is characterized by chronic or recurrent abdominal pain associated with changes in bowel frequency and consistency, when other etiologies are excluded. The combination of the Rome III criteria with the absence of alarm symptoms have a sensitivity of 65%, specificity of 100%, 100% positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 76%. Current tests commonly fail to obtain an objective diagnosis, and effective therapies are lacking. There are no specific endoscopic findings that can discriminate IBS patients from healthy patients. Most colonoscopies are performed to rule out other etiologies and in more than 50% of the cases are normal.
In this study, the investigators propose a novel method to detect Down syndrome using photography for facial dysmorphology, a tool called computer-aided diagnosis (CAD). After validating the method, this technology will be expanded to perform similar functions to assist in the detection of other dysmorphic syndromes. By using photography and image analysis this automated assessment tool would have the potential to improve the diagnosis rate and allow for remote, non-invasive diagnostic evaluation for dysmorphologists in a timely manner.
The Purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of Daesiho-tang and Taeeumjowi-tang on Korean obese Women with metabolic syndrome Risk factors
This registry aims to collect data related to management of patients affected by acute coronary syndromes and hospitalized in the Campania Region of Italy
To assess prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea during pregnancy and its impact on prgnancy course and materno foetal wellbeing.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and determine the best dose of prexasertib (LY2606368) when given together with cytarabine and fludarabine in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that has returned after a period of improvement or no longer responds to treatment. Prexasertib (LY2606368) may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and fludarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving prexasertib (LY2606368) together with cytarabine and fludarabine may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
The initial steroids dose for Nephrotic Syndrome is 60mg/1m2 for 6-4 weeks and the duration of the first steroid course is between 8 weeks to 6 months. The base of the initial dose for steroids Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome been put in the early 70s. In our study the investigators will adjusted the first steroids does to the response day. Our primary end point is : a lower adjusted dose is as good as the fix dose in the first year after diagnosis.
A prospective randomised controlled trial to investigate the effects of a pre-operative prehabilitation protocol on clinical outcomes of gastric cancer patients with metabolic syndrome who undergo laparoscopic radical gastrectomies and to determine the underlying mechanisms.
In Qatar, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have become the leading cause of morbidity and mortality over the past two decades. Between 1991 and 2010, a total of 16,736 patients were admitted with ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome) in Qatar. Despite the use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), and pharmacological agents to acutely reduce vascular risk, ACS patients are at high risk of having further cardiovascular events. Consequently, secondary cardiovascular risk reduction therapy is needed for all CAD (Coronary Artery Disease) patients. Clinical practice guidelines recommend that following ACS, patients should receive indefinite treatment with aspirin, a beta blocker, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or alternatively angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) and a statin. Less than 80% of ACS patients in Qatar use this quadruple combination after discharge. This creates a significant opportunity for pharmacists to improve CVD management and outcomes in Qatar. Nothing is known about the impact of Qatar clinical pharmacists as direct patient-care team members at discharge and post-discharge on the short-term and long-term outcomes of ACS patients. The proposed study is aimed to determine this impact. The investigators hypothesize that a clinical pharmacist-delivered intervention consisting of medication reconciliation and counseling at discharge and tailored follow-up post-discharge will decrease hospital readmissions, emergency department (ED) visits and all-cause mortality at 3 month, 6 months and 12 months after hospital discharge when compared with control arm and pharmacist delivered intervention at discharge only among ACS patients. The investigators also hypothesize that the effect of the intervention will increase patients' adherence to evidence-based secondary prevention medications for CAD (Coronary Artery Disease), and patient satisfaction with pharmacy services. Besides, this intervention will reduce the treatment burden on patients.
