Filter by:Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acute and reversible form of myocardial injury characterized by typical regional wall motion abnormalities in the absence of culprit epicardial coronary artery disease frequently precipitated by significant emotional stress or serious physical illness. The clinical presentation is usually similar to acute myocardial infarction (MI), with chest pain and/or dyspnea, ST-segment elevation or depression and/or T-wave inversion on the resting electrocardiogram (ECG) and elevation of serum cardiac troponin. Although previously considered a benign disease, it is now clear that TTS is associated with severe acute complications during the acute phase including hemodynamic and electrical instability and up to 5% of in-hospital mortality. The pathogenetic mechanisms of air pollution are likely to predispose to the occurrence as well as to mediate a worse clinical presentation and outcome of TTS, proving air pollution as a TTS risk factor.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to test the efficacy of self-management support based exercise combine nutrition intervention in lung cancer patient with cancer cachexia anorexia syndrome . The main question it aims to answer is: • Would exercise combine nutrition intervention improve lung cancer patients' nutrition status? Participants will make custom exercise plan and eat enough protein food after self-management support based education. And there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare comparison group to see nutrition status who receive routine health education.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test efficacy of the REACH program in parents with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and their young children. The main question it aims to answer is: -How can parents with IBS help their young kids develop healthy habits? Participants will be asked to complete online surveys and to use a website. Researchers will compare results from parents who use one of two websites chosen by chance, like flipping a coin. One website focuses on child health and safety behaviors. The other website focuses on strategies to promote child wellness behaviors.
A double-blind placebo-controlled trial is conducted in order to evaluate the efficacy of alpha lipoic acid (ALA) and determine the statistical significance of the outcome variables. Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is defined as an oral burning sensation in the absence of clinical signs which could justify the syndrome. Recent studies suggest the existence of neurological factors as a possible cause of the disease.
To further improve the outcome of ACS it is strongly needed to identify new therapeutic targets. This is possible only by improving our knowledge of the multiple molecular mechanisms leading to coronary instability through several pathways. The goal of this project is to define the molecular mechanisms responsible for the four different presentations of ACS, to identify biomarkers for their noninvasive identification and potential new therapeutic targets, thus promoting precision medicine.
This study evaluates the frequency of sexual dysfunction in women with myofascial pain syndrome and its relationship with clinical parameters.
Hemolytic and uremic syndrome (HUS) is a clinic-biological syndrome related to thrombotic microangiopathy affecting predominantly the kidney. Atypical HUS (aHUS) has been historically defined as HUS occurring in the absence of infectious event. The role of complement dysregulation in aHUS pathophysiology has been largely demonstrated, since C genetic rare variants are present in 60-70% aHUS patients. In line with the frequency of C dysregulation in aHUS, Eculizumab, an anti-C5 monoclonal antibody, has dramatically improved aHUS patients prognosis. Numerous conditions have been associated with aHUS, including hypertensive emergency (HE), a syndrome of acute blood pressure flare associated with end-organ damage. In cases of HE-aHUS, whether primary aHUS is complicated by secondary HE, or primary HE leads to secondary aHUS is still debated. The investigators recently demonstrated that C genetic variants frequency was similar in patients with HE-aHUS and patients with aHUS without HE, suggesting a major role for C dysregulation in HE-aHUS. Consequently, the investigators propose to evaluate, in HE-aHUS patients, the benefit of a strategy with early Eculizumab therapy (used within its marketing authorization and its conditions of refunding by the health insurance in usual care), compared to standard of care including tight blood pressure control. The hypothesis suggests that C dysregulation may impact renal prognosis of HE-aHUS patients. The investigator's aim to demonstrate that early Eculizumab therapy improves prognosis of HE-aHUS patients. Method The HYPERSHU study is a randomized, controlled, open-labelled study including HE-aHUS patients with severe AKI and no evidence of other conditions associated with HUS (infections, autoimmunity, drugs, pregnancy). The investigators plan to include 62 patients. Patients will be randomized in 2 arms: - Early Eculizumab therapy (for 3 months) added to standard of care (tight blood pressure control). - Standard of care alone with tight blood pressure control. Renal function after 6 months is the primary evaluation criterium. HE is a frequently associated with aHUS, and strongly impacts patient renal prognosis. Efficient therapeutic strategies are still lacking for this condition. The HYPERSHU study will allow to evaluate the benefit of early Eculizumab therapy in patients with HE-aHUS and severe renal dysfunction.
The present study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of perioperative colchicine with regard to operative complications, in patients with acute coronary syndrome and indication for cardiac post-surgical revascularization. Patients will be selected and randomized while still in the emergency room and medication (colchicine 0.5mg every 12 hours or placebo) will be started within 24 hours of randomization, being maintained for 30 days after surgery.
Post-Acute Syndrome COVID-19 is a disease resulting from infection by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). It is estimated that between 10 and 35% of infected persons suffer symptoms afterwards, and in hospitalized patients it can reach 85%. These sequelae have individual, social and economic repercussions, so effective rehabilitation alternatives are necessary. Physical exercise is recommended as rehabilitation for these patients. Moreover, the implementation of m-Health supported interventions is a proven alternative in patients with Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome or other conditions, which improves therapeutic adherence and patient autonomy. Therefore, the development and evaluation of the effectiveness of an exercise-based m-Health system for application in patients with Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome responds to a need. Our hypothesis is that a mobile health technology based on physical exercise recommendations for patients with Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome will improve fatigue, physical fitness, post-exertional dyspnea, pain intensity, anxiety, depression, cognitive function, and quality of life. Therefore, this project aims to evaluate the efficacy of the mobile health technology system (COVIDReApp) based on physical exercise recommendations for patients with COVID-19 Post-Acute Syndrome based on its results on fatigue, physical condition, post-exertional dyspnea, pain intensity, anxiety and depression, cognitive function and quality of life. The achievement of the present project will serve to analyze the benefits of a physical exercise program in patients with COVID-19 Post-Acute Syndrome and identify those patients in whom the benefits will be greatest and whose implementation will have the highest priority.
The purpose of this study is to find out if somapacitan is safe and how well somapacitan works in children either born small for gestational age or with Turner syndrome, Noonan syndrome or idiopathic short stature. Somapacitan is a new growth hormone medicine for treatment of low level of growth hormone. The study will last for about 3 years. During the study, the participants will be treated with somapacitan once a week. Somapacitan can be injected anytime during the day. The study doctor or nurse will show how to inject somapacitan, so that the participant knows how to do it at home.
