Filter by:Progesterone is needed to permit adaptation of the kidney to limit potassium loss in the urines. The investigators wonder whether progesterone or other adrenal hormon play the same role. The investigators will investigate surrenal hormone production in healthy subjects under a 7-day potassium depleted diet and in patients chronically hypokalaemic due to a renal loss of potassium.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of deep brain stimulation in obese patients with Prader Willi syndrome refractory to conventional treatment.
This study is being performed to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary clinical effects of BVD-523 given orally, twice daily for 21-day cycles, in patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS).
The primary objective of this study is to determine if a more specific exercise routine that incorporates a progressive hip stability program will help to rehabilitate the hip and reduce symptoms of iliotibial band syndrome more than conventional hip exercises. Three different exercises interventions will be compared to determine its effectiveness in reducing pain, improving function and returning subjects to running symptom free. Secondary objective for this study is to establish an intervention program for female runners with this injury. There will be three treatment arms and participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: Group A- control (stretching), group B (conventional hip exercises and group C (experimental treatment- specific progressive hip exercises).
This study is designed to compare the safety and effectiveness of two blood thinners, apixaban and warfarin, for the prevention of blood clots in patients who have a higher risk of blood clots than the general population, a condition called "antiphospholipid syndrome".
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a common condition that may induce hemodynamic and metabolic dysregulation. However, it is not clear if OSA is a mere epiphenomenon or contributes to increase the morbidity associated with metabolic syndrome. This study was designed to evaluate the impact of OSA treatment with CPAP in consecutive patients with metabolic syndrome.
Aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of Armolipid Plus on insulin sensitivity in patients with MetS and increased LV mass. 168 patients will be enrolled in this randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled trial and treated for 24 weeks.
A recent randomised, controlled, crossover study has shown that sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) significantly reduces symptoms and improves quality of life of highly selected patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Relief of IBS symptoms during SNS is associated with consistent changes in rectal sensitivity and biomechanical wall properties. The aim of the present study is to evaluate long-term efficacy of sacral nerve stimulation on symptoms and quality of life in patients with IBS in a randomised, placebo-controlled, crossover study.
Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), caused by surfactant deficiency, is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in preterm infants. Intratracheal instillation, the only approved means of surfactant delivery, requires endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation with their attendant risks. Interventions that decrease need for intubation and mechanical ventilation like noninvasive ventilation (NIV) including nasal continuous positive airway pressure, high flow nasal cannula or nasal intermittent mandatory ventilation are increasingly being used for initial respiratory support in preterm neonates with RDS to improve outcomes. Aerosolized surfactant delivered during NIV is an innovative and promising concept for the treatment of RDS - retaining the advantages of early surfactant with alveolar recruitment while obviating the risks of intubation and mechanical ventilation. The investigators overall hypothesis is that treatment of RDS with aerosolized surfactant in preterm infants undergoing NIV is safe and feasible and will result in short-term improvement in oxygenation and ventilation. The objective of this proposal is to perform a single-center unblinded Phase II randomized clinical trial of aerosolized surfactant for the treatment of RDS in preterm neonates undergoing NIV.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the risk of bleeding with rivaroxaban, compared with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), in addition to a single antiplatelet/ platelet adenosine diphosphate P2Y12 receptor antagonist (P2Y12 inhibitor agent: clopidogrel or ticagrelor), in participants with a recent acute coronary syndrome (ACS: including ST segment elevation myocardial infarction [STEMI] and non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome [NSTE-ACS]).
