Filter by:A randomized, sham-controlled, single-centre pilot investigation designed to compare two parallel groups, gammaCore®-G (active treatment) and a sham, (inactive) treatment in subjects with FGIDs.
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is the common disease in clinical, which pathophysiology is a lot of alveolar collapse and heterogeneity. Recruitment maneuver is one of the important therapy for improvement of this phenomenon. The previous research focuses on the hemodynamic and oxygenation effect of recruitment maneuver on the lung of ARDS. Seldom investigators try to find the intuitive change of heterogeneity when recruitment maneuver is implemented. In this study, the investigators compare three recruitment maneuvers on the lung heterogeneity of ARDS.
This study in patients with IBS-C is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial with 12 weeks of study drug therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of RESTIFFIC™, a foot wrap that produces adjustable targeted pressure on specific muscles in the feet, to reduce the symptoms of moderate to severe primary Restless Legs Syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of D-Cycloserine versus placebo treatment in reducing pain from urological chronic pelvic pain syndrome (UCPPS).
Noonan syndrome (NS) is a rare genetic disease (incidence 1/2500 live births) characterized by the association of craniofacial manifestations, cardiopathies, short stature, and tumor predisposition. The genetic causes of Noonan Syndrome are mutations of genes involved in the Ras/Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases (MAPK) pathway, mainly the gene encoding the tyrosine phosphatase Shp2 (50% of patients).Shp2 appears to be involved in many facets of energy metabolism control (glucose homeostasis, adipose tissue function…), through mechanisms that are poorly understood. Several metabolic anomalies (reduced adiposity, improved glucose tolerance) have been recently identified in an original mouse model carrying Shp2 mutation. Moreover, recent clinical survey has shown that adult Noonan Syndrome patients are protected from developping overweight and obesity when compared to the general population. However, the metabolic status associated with Noonan Syndrome condition has not been explored to date.
The vast majority of children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome respond well to corticosteroid treatment. However, as many as 20% experience a more complicated course with steroid resistance (SRNS). Repeated and prolonged courses of steroids in these children often result in long-term complications. The goal of treatment is to reduce the rate of relapses, the cumulative dose of corticosteroids, and the incidence of serious complications. In order to minimize the side effects of steroid therapy, different steroid sparing agents such as cyclophosphamide, calcineurin inhibitors(CNI), levamisole, and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) have been used in SRNS. Whereas CNI are usually considered the steroid sparing drug class of first choice, rituximab is increasingly used as alternative to minimize CNI toxicity. Various prospective studies suggest that Rituximab, a B cell depleting monoclonal antibody, could be a safe and effective alternative to steroid or immunosuppressants to achieve and maintain remission in this population. Rituximab infusion have been shown to be efficacious for 6 to 12 months and the side effect profile observed to date is very benign. Studies comparing the usefulness of these agents are lacking. In this proposed randomized controlled trial, the investigators want to compare the efficacy and safety of CNI to that of Rituximab in treating children with SRNS.
The main purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of use Alpha lipoic acid before and after surgical release of carpal tunnel syndrome. Controlled Clinical trial.
Objective: Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is chronic oral condition characterized with burning symptoms which affects perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. It seems that neuropathy might be the underlying cause of the condition. There are still insufficient data regarding successful therapy. The aim of this study was to compare efficacy of acupuncture and clonazepam in 42 BMS patients (38 women, 4 men), age range 66.7±12 years. Methods: Patients were randomly divided into two groups. Acupuncture was performed in group I during four weeks, 3 times per week on the points ST 8, GB 2, TB 21, SI 19, SI 18, LI 4 on both sides of the body as well as GV 20, each session lasted half an hour.Group II patients took clonazepam two times a day (0.5 mg) in the morning and after two weeks two tablets (0.5 mg) in the morning and in the evening during the next two weeks. Prior to and one month after either therapy, participants fulfilled questionnaires: visual analogue scale, Beck depression inventory, LANSS pain scale, 36-item short form Health Survey (SF-36) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Statistical analysis was performed by use of Student t test and Pearson's correlation test. P values lower than 0.05 were considered significant.
sjogren syndrome is an autoimmune disease that mainly affects the Salivary glands and Lacrimal gland In addition to the effects of this disease is characterized by overall systemic Muskals injury, pulmonary disease, peripheral neuropathy and vasculitis. In addition recent studies have shown that patients are at increased risk of the disease up to 2 cardiac events and stroke events Hydroxychloroquine is an RHEUMATIC DISEASE PROCESS SUPPRESSANTS-ANTIMALARIALS used to treat anti-inflammatory rheumatic diseases in many first-line treatment is sjogren syndrome. A recent study of the treatment in Hydroxychloroquine effect on lipid profile sjogren syndrome patients showed a reduction in total cholesterol levels and increase in HDL. Further studies of the impact made Hydroxychloroquine systemic lupus patients erythematosus (SLE) showed in Atherosclerosis and morbidity and mortality reduction in cardiovascular. Studies of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) demonstrated reduced risk of developing diabetes and improved lipid profile Research Goals valuate The effect of HCQ treatment in cardiovascular patients with primary sjogren syndrome
