Filter by:In this mono-center pilot trial, surgical patients who are at high risk to be admitted to intensive care will be screened and asked for participation. We are going to take blood and muscle samples at respecified time points to do metabolic, histological and molecular testing. Aim of the study is to investigate (1) changes of the blood metabolome in patients with ICUAW (intensive care unit acquired weakness) and (2) identify metabolic components who are responsible for ICUAW or can be used as marker for ICUAW.
Systemic sclerosis is an autoimmune connective tissue disease with undefined etiology and characterized by progressive fibrosis of the skin and major organs.

Several criteria have been validated to classify the SS but require a labial salivary gland biopsy, invasive act which complications can sometimes be reported (hematoma, lip sensory defect). Several scores based on the evaluation of the ultrasound homogeneity of the salivary glands were developed but no studies have evaluated ultrasound abnormalities of salivary glands in patients with systemic sclerosis.
