Filter by:Humacyte provided HAVs as humanitarian aid to Ukraine. This retrospective observational study is designed to collect data from patients in whom the HAVs have already been implanted on a humanitarian basis between June 2022 and May 2023.
Homelessness and associated traumas disproportionately affect women. The biopsychosocial health consequences of untreated trauma are profound. PTSD frequently co-occurs with other chronic health conditions, including substance use disorders (SUD). Co-morbid PTSD and SUD (PTSD+SUD) is common and difficult to treat, resulting in severe morbidity and premature mortality among women experiencing homelessness. Executing this study will help to address the disproportionate PTSD+SUD comorbidity burden, which drives health inequities in the growing population of women experiencing homelessness within and beyond Chicago.
This study aims to investigate the relationship between multifidus and gastrocnemius muscle thickness with postural stability in patients with spinal cord injury.
So far, therapies have limited success in functional recovery in adults with chronic SCI. By introducing remote cognitive multisensory rehabilitation (CMR), which has shown significant functional improvements due to neurological recovery when delivered in-person, transformative results that (i) provide a potentially effective new therapy within the healthcare system, accessible to more patients, and (ii) demonstrate brain function changes alongside improved function in chronic SCI are anticipated. The results will inform and justify a large scale federally funded clinical trial.
The purpose of this observational research study is to better understand immune responses to vaccines against viruses (influenza or SARS-CoV2). The goal is to determine any differences in immune responses to vaccines in uninjured people and in people living with spinal cord injuries, who are typically at increased risk of infections.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare difference between Aspirin 81 mg and Aspirin 325 mg in preventing strokes in patients with head and neck vessels injury. The main questions it aims to answer are: - If Aspirin 81 mg efficacy in prevention of stroke in patients with head and neck vessels injury is not lower than and Aspirin 325 mg. - If rate of hemorrhagic complications in patients with head and neck vessels injury taking Aspirin 81 mg is not higher than patients that take Aspirin 325 mg.
The goal of this experimental observation study is to figure out differently expressed biomarkers in serum in traumatic brain injury patients, compared with bone fracture patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Which proteins and metabolites are differently expressed in TBI patients' serum? 2. Which proteins or metabolites can serve as the new serum biomarkers for diagnosing TBI? Participants will be treated by routine treatments, and their serum samples will be collected in the emergency room.
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a severe complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), is the leading cause of hospitalization, morbidity and mortality in patients with DM (1). DKA is associated with hyperglycemic crises and featured by metabolic acidosis, the production of ketoacids, volume depletion, and electrolyte imbalance. Due to glucose-induced osmotic polyuria and even emesis, volume depletion is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in DKA patients (2).
The goal of this observational prospective cohort study is to learn about the pathophysiology of perioperative myocardial infarction/injury in high-risk patients undergoing major non-cardiac surgery. Participants will: - Wear wearable device (Basler Band) for up to seven days after the operation or until hospital discharge - Provide three blood samples. A venous specimen of blood (25 mL) will be collected preoperatively and on postoperative days 1 and 2. - Be contacted to answer a questionnaire one year after the surgery.
Traumatic rib fractures (i.e., broken ribs caused by a physical injury) are common and very painful. They also often lead to serious complications, more time spent in hospital, and can even lead to death. Even after rib fractures have healed, they can lead to long-term pain and a lower quality of life. A technology called cryoneurolysis, which acts to freeze nerves causing pain using a small tool which can turn very cold, is a promising new way to manage rib fracture pain. This study is a test with a small number of people to see if it is feasible to use this technology for patients with rib fractures. If this is successful, we will recruit more people for a larger study to see if cryoneurolysis, along with standard pain control techniques, is better at stopping pain, compared to just the normal techniques alone. Participants in our study will be asked to rate their pain, and record pain medications that they take for 3 months after their pain procedure.
