Filter by:The purpose of this study is to define the reliability and accuracy of Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) in the detection of intra-compartmental tissue perfusion in injured and noninjured extremities over time. We hypothesize that this technology, combined with vital signs, intracompartmental pressures and clinical examinations, will be useful in diagnosing acute compartment syndrome (ACS), monitoring patients at risk for ACS, and evaluating the adequacy of fasciotomy in patients treated for ACS.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of metformin in abrogating androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) induced insulin resistance as measured by homeostasis model assessment (HOMAIR) in men with non-metastatic prostate cancer.
Transient left ventricular ballooning syndrome (TLVBS) is a cardiac syndrome that is characterised by acute but transient left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Since the syndrome clearly is not a rare phenomenon and since prognosis is not as benign as originally thought, there is a need for further research into the etiology and pathophysiology of TLVBS. Therefore the investigators aim to study the microvascular and endothelial function in their population of TLVBS patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine if RVX-100 is safe and effective in treating acute abdominal pain in patients with irritable bowel syndrome accompanied by diarrhea.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation (TBI) before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they will help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as filgrastim (G-CSF) and plerixafor, to the donor helps the stem cells move (mobilization) from the bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying giving plerixafor and filgrastim together for mobilization of donor peripheral blood stem cells before a peripheral blood stem cell transplant in treating patients with hematologic malignancies
To demonstrate the effectiveness of the ELIPS programme (Multi-dimEnsionaL preventIon Program after Acute coronary Syndrome), which aims at improving quality of care of patients admitted to hospital with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) in the Swiss setting. The program targets an increase in prescription rates by physicians and long term medication adherence and adoption of healthy lifestyle attitudes by patients. The program is dedicated to caregivers to increase their application of guidelines into practice, to increase their confidence in therapeutic education of patients, and to patients to improve their understanding of ACS and its treatment and to increase their motivation for long term treatment,.
RATIONALE: Belinostat and bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving belinostat together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving belinostat together with bortezomib in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of electrotherapy as a coadjuvant in mobility and exercise treatment in the reduction of pain intensity in subacromial impingement syndrome.
This is a placebo controlled trial investigating the effect of 6 months atorvastatin 20mg/day therapy on androgens, glucose metabolism and inflammatory markers in women with PCOS. We assume that during 6 months atorvastatin therapy a significant improvement in hyperandrogenism, glucose metabolism and inflammatory markers is observed.
Metabolic Syndrome (MS) is an clinical condition with high cardiovascular risk. More than 80% of DM patients had MS. Dietary factors can be associated to both, DM and MS. Therefore the aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of add soluble fiber (goma-guar) in the usual diet of type 2 DM with MS and compare this intervention with an usual diet without this supplement.
