Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether new magnetic resonance imaging techniques can be used as a biomarker of aortic disease severity in patients with Marfan syndrome.
The hypotheses of this study are that single agent CPI-0209 will be safe and well tolerated in patients with advanced (stage IB-IVB) mycosis fungoides (MF)/Sézary syndrome (SS) who have had at least one prior systemic therapy, and that in these patients, CPI-0209 will demonstrate efficacy and be worth of further study.
Metabolic syndrome is a public health concern worldwide and in Pakistan as well. Abdominal obesity, hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypertension, and low HDL cholesterol are its hallmarks while pomegranate seed's unique chemical composition has sparked research into the health benefits in same arena as weight control, blood lipid profile changes, and other metabolic disturbances. It's high time to study therapeutic efficiency of Pomegranate seed powder against metabolic syndrome.
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS); is a complex syndrome characterized by many symptoms such as chronic widespread pain, fatigue and sleep disorders, cognitive dysfunctions and psychiatric disorders. It has been stated that there is an urgent need for studies examining the clinicimetric and psychometric properties of the pain phenotype criteria in terms of patients receiving the most appropriate treatment, clinicians deciding on the appropriate treatment, and contributing to the research of scientists. Despite all this, no study has yet been found that describes the pain phenotypes in fibromyalgia syndrome and how different types of pain affect patients. The primary aim of this study is to determine the chronic pain phenotypes in individuals with FMS. The secondary aim of this study to determine the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the algorithm used in the determination of pain phenotypes and to assessment the clinical effects of different pain phenotypes on individuals with FMS in terms of pain severity, disease severity, quality of life and catastrophe.
To evaluate whether there is clinical improvement through the scales (Bristol, IBS severity score, and IBS quality of life) in women with irritable bowel syndrome after administration of SC-FOS (short-chain fructooligosaccharides).
To describe the demographics, clinical characteristics, treatment patterns and clinical outcomes of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), and heredofamilial amyloidosis (hATTR) adult patients at a single U.K. centre.
This is a placebo controlled clinical trial to assess the utility of light therapy as a sufficient treatment for excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with Prader-Willi Syndrome
This study uses a noninvasive technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to study hyperphagia and satiety in Prader-Willi syndrome. TMS is a noninvasive way of stimulating the brain, using a magnetic field to change activity in the brain. The magnetic field is produced by a coil that is held next to the scalp. In this study, the investigators will be stimulating the brain to learn more about how TMS might improve hyperphagia in Prader-Willi syndrome.
Candy cane syndrome (CCS) is an adverse event (AE) from gastrectomy or gastric bypass and end-to-side anastomosis to a jejunal loop. It seems to be predominantly mechanical, the afferent blind loop enlarge and becomes preferential passage of food. This food accumulated in the blind loop increase luminal pressure, causing dilatation, early satiety, fullness, pain, reflux, regurgitation, postprandial vomiting, weight loss, and, ultimately, inability to eat, leading to cachexia.Up to now, main treatment is laparoscopic revision which is invasive. Adverse events related this surgical procedure occurred in 13,3% of cases and substantial improvement only in 73.9%. A first clinical study with MAGUS including oesophageal diverticulum (n=2) and CCS (n=14) has been performed to assess safety and feasibility of this new device. MAGUS is an implantable device which is placed endoscopically and which, by using pressure necrosis, entailed the marsupialization of the blind loop in less than 30 days. Substantial improvement was observed in all patient and only 7,1% of patients experience an adverse event possibly related to the device. This study aim therefore to assess the safety and performance of the endoscopic treatment of CCS using a new medical device: MAGUS. This will be a single-center, open-label prospective, safety and performance study on 51 patients with Candy Cane Syndrome (CCS). Patients will be followed for 12 months after the procedure, with an enrolment period of 3 years. After the screening, the following data will be collected and examinations and tests performed : physical Exam, medical history including CCS cause and treatment(s) history, weight, Eckart and dysphagia score, Quality of Life questionnaire (SF 12 and GERD HRQL), Main symptom selection (Nausea, Vomiting/regurgitation or pain), nausea VAS, vomiting, regurgitation VAS, pain VAS, barium swallow X-ray or endoscopic assessment of Candy Cane. Follow-up visits will be performed at 14 days, 28 days, 3 months and 12 months post-procedure.
Infants with neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) experience prolonged hospital stays and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes, in-part because of the lack of accurate, individualized, biologic assessments available to manage this increasingly common medical condition. The proposed study will define the molecular mechanisms that regulate the response to opioid withdrawal in the developing brain by focusing on three candidate microRNAs (let-7a, miR-146a, miR-192) that have been shown to respond to opioid exposure in animal models and adults, and are impacted in both my preliminary study of infants with NAS, and my human neural progenitor cell (NPC) design of opioid withdrawal. By determining the mechanism through which microRNAs impact NPC differentiation in opioid withdrawal, and determining whether exosomal salivary microRNA levels predict treatment dose and neurodevelopmental outcomes in infants with NAS, this study will enhance our knowledge of NAS-related biology and identify potential biomarkers that could improve medical care for this important medical condition.
