This study will investigate the frequency, clinical phenotype, management and molecular genetic defects of heritable kidney cancer syndromes. Families with kidney cancer with known or suspected genetic basis will be enrolled. Affected individuals or individuals suspected of having a germline kidney cancer will undergo periodic clinical assessment and genetic analyses for the purpose of: 1) definition and characterization of phenotype, 2) determination of the natural history of the disorder, and 3) genotype/phenotype correlation. Genetic linkage studies may be performed in situations in which the genetic basis of the disorder has not been elucidated. This research will have a significant impact on the overall management of heritable kidney cancer syndromes patients and family members who are at risk for heritable kidney cancer syndromes. The study will ultimately facilitate the development of novel screening, prevention and treatment strategies for these individuals with the syndrome. In addition this study could have impact on the management of patients with personal and/or family history of heritable kidney cancer syndromes.
Pain and limitation of shoulder mobility resulting from sub-shoulder syndrome called sub acromion impingement syndrome (SIS) are a big social problem in highly developed countries. This work aims to compare the method of treating SIS ailments taking into account the monitored exercises on their own- hands off, to the traditional method of individual physiotherapy considering manual therapy, TENS and local cryotherapy- hands on. The study will qualify people aged 18-50 years without previous injections, surgical procedures and physiotherapy within the shoulder joint. The initial examination of the participants will include: ultrasound examination, Neer test, functional mobility test according to FMS, clinical examination: palpation of the joint area, cross body adduction test, radial artery pulse test, numerical pain scale 0-10, DASH questionnaire. After the initial checkups, 60 people will be qualified for the proper examination. Selected participants will be divided into two groups of 30 people, each group consisting of 15 women and 15 men. The first group will undergo self-therapy for 3-5 months. The subjects will exercise independently for about 1.5 hours a day, three times a week. Every two weeks, each subject will be admitted to a follow-up visit, during which the physiotherapist will recommend another set of exercises and check the progress. The second group will undergo traditional physiotherapy three times a week for a period of three months. After a period of 3-5 months, both groups will undergo the same examination as initially. The results of both studies will be compared in both groups. The groups will then be compared to each other.
Food protein induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES), is a non-IgE mediated food allergy (FA) which seems to expand, and occurring in infancy. This disease is usually unknown by clinicians. In 2017, an international workgroup of American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology published clinical criteria to specify the diagnosis. However, there is a lack of information in literature for describe the evolution and atypical phenotypes. In addition, no prospective French series has been published to date. The aim of the study is to collect clinical features and allergy testing of children who have acute form of FPIES at diagnosis and during evolution during three years
Primary Gougerot-Sjögren's syndrome is a systemic autoimmune disease belonging to the group of connectivities, whose physiopathology remains largely unknown. Quantification and characterization of epithelial and endothelial circulants in Gougerot-Sjögren's syndrome could reflect the intensity of the epithelial aggression, and thus possibly constitute a biomarker.
The purpose of this study is to establish a registry of individuals with confirmed or suspected Chopra-Amiel-Gordon Syndrome (CAGS) to learn more about the range of symptoms, changes in the structure of the brain seen on imaging, and learning difficulties that individuals with this disorder may experience. The investigators will obtain medical history, family history, MRI records, patient photographs, and genetic test results from individuals with confirmed or suspected CAGS. A subset of participants will also undergo a standardized neurobehavioral assessment. This data will be maintained on a secure research database. Sample collection will be offered to participants for the functional testing and the generation of iPSC cell lines, for neuronal reprogramming and phenotyping.
The aim of this multi-center, two-armed, randomized controlled trial is to assess the effect of a novel internet-based therapist-assisted treatment program "One step at a time" designed for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe functional somatic disorder (FSD). The trial will enroll 166 patients with FSD who will be randomized (1:1) to either the experimental condition (14 weeks' treatment with "One step at a time") or the active control condition ("GetStarted"), which is a non-guided internet-based treatment program for patients with FSD. The trial will include patients aged 18-60 years with an established single/oligo-organ or multi-organ FSD diagnosis, with a duration of minimum 6 months. The primary outcome measures will be based on self-reported physical health (SF-36 PPH) and treatment satisfaction (CGI-I). The trial will be considered effective if a higher proportion of patients in the experimental condition report a clinically significant outcome compared with patients in the active control condition at the 3-month follow-up after treatment.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age. PCOS is a heterogeneous condition, characterised by metabolic disturbances, insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism. Pregnancies in women with PCOS have an increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus, preeclampsia and preterm birth, and their offspring have an increased risk of aberrant birth weight and hospitalization. After pregnancy, PCOS is thought to have an impact on breastfeeding success and breastmilk composition. Current strategies to improve pregnancy outcome among women with PCOS have not demonstrated significant risk reduction. Myo-inositol is a commonly used dietary supplement with a favourable effect on glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Optimal intake of myo-inositol is associated with a decrease in glucose, lower insulin and lower testosterone levels in women with PCOS. Among women with PCOS-related disorders (e.g. in women with obesity), myo-inositol supplementation in pregnancy has been shown to have clinical benefits in preventing adverse pregnancy outcomes in a number of clinical trials, by reducing the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus, hypertensive complications and preterm birth. The MYPP-trial will be the first randomised prospective trial aimed specifically at pregnant women with PCOS, to evaluate the potential effectiveness of myo-inositol supplementation as a nutritional intervention to prevent all three pregnancy complications associated with PCOS (i.e. GDM, preeclampsia and preterm birth). Secondary objectives are to evaluate the impact of supplementation on maternal (mental) and neonatal health, breastfeeding practices and breastmilk composition. In addition, a full cost-effectiveness analysis will be performed. Women with a diagnosis of PCOS and a singleton pregnancy between 8+0 and 16+0 weeks of gestational age are eligible. Participants randomly allocated to the intervention group will receive 4 grams myo-inositol added to their routinely recommended folic acid supplement, divided over two daily sachets of sugary powder throughout pregnancy. The control group will receive similar looking sachets of supplements containing only the standard dose of folic acid without the added myo-inositol supplement, as part of the current standard-of-care recommendation. In addition to receiving supplements, participants will be asked to complete three questionnaires, provide blood and urine samples once each trimester of pregnancy, and routine ultrasound scanning will be performed to assess fetal growth. All study visits will be aligned with routine antenatal care appointments. Additionally, subjects can choose to participate in research on the impact of myo-inositol supplementation on breastfeeding and take part in the MYPP biobank. The results of this study will provide important novel recommendations for PCOS patients on the importance of optimising life-style and nutrient intake to improve pregnancy outcome.
Complex regional pain syndrome is a painful syndrome often secondary to a traumatic lesion. Treatment is difficult, of long duration with variable outcomes. Patch of capsaïcin has been proposed as adjuvant to a multimodal treatment. Capsaïcin may act by its effect on transient receptor potential vanilloid 1. Efficacity and outcome studies with this treatment are lacking. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate pain intensity over time assessed by visual analog scale in patient with complex regional pain syndrome treated with capsaïcin patch in addition to their usual treatment.
