Filter by:Research purpose To elucidate the effect mechanism and clinical effective of weifuchun in the prevention and treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis and precancerous lesions of gastric cancer. From genes related to cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, tumor invasion and metastasis, genes related to immune inflammation and immune escape and other possible aspects to elucidate the effective and mechanism of weifuchun's treatment on chronic atrophic gastritis, reversing precancerous lesions of gastric cancer.
This is a prospective cohort study to examine the disease burden of multiple system atrophy and the impact of multidisciplinary care on quality of life and caregiver burden. Data will be collected through valid rating scales completed by patients and caregivers at home or in the MSA clinic.
This study evaluates a new combined technique using two different laser wavelengths and Platelets Rich Plasma (PRP) to treat post-atrophic acne scars. Within the available knowledge of laser-tissue interactions and effects of PRP on wound healing, we will explore the clinical effects of our new combination procedure on a histopathological and immunohistochemical basis for guiding future post acne scars clinical research.
This study will examine the influence of n3 PUFA supplementation on the rate of muscle atrophy in older women undergoing 1 week of unilateral limb immobilization. Assessments in skeletal muscle strength and skeletal muscle volume will also me made before, after and in recovery from immobilization.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the measurement properties of the Ability Captured Through Interactive Video Evaluation-mini (ACTIVE-mini) for quantifying movement in infants with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). Specifically, I will investigate within-day and between-day test-retest reliability and calculate the minimal detectable change of the ACTIVE-mini. Additionally, I will determine the concurrent validity of the ACTIVE-mini with The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Test for Neuromuscular Disease (CHOP INTEND) and the construct validity of the ACTIVE-mini in infants with SMA using a known group methodology.
The effect of different protein intakes on skeletal muscle atrophy during short term unilateral leg immobilisation.
This study is a prospective, double-blinded, randomized control trial examining the effect of blood flow restriction (BFR) therapy on reducing post-operative quadriceps atrophy in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Following ACLR, patients will undergo a rehabilitation protocol either w/ BFR therapy or sham BFR therapy.
An open, uncontrolled pharmacokinetic study with a new topical combination gel containing triiodothyroacetic acid (TRIAC) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in subjects with skin atrophy due to topical treatment with glucocorticoids.
Tissues of the genitals of women are both androgen (testosterone) and estrogen dependent. The clitoris, vestibule, urethra, anterior vaginal wall, peri-urethral tissue, and pelvic floor all depend on androgens for normal function. In addition, the glands, which secrete lubrication during sexual arousal, also require androgens to function. Deficiencies of both estrogens and androgens occur naturally during menopause. Menopause-related deficiencies of these hormones lead to thinning in the tissues of the genital and urinary systems which have been termed Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM). Patients with GSM will frequently complain of dryness and/or pain during sexual intercourse. Historically, GSM treatment involved both androgens and estrogens, However, over the past few decades estrogen based therapies have become much more common. More recently, clinical trials have demonstrated that local vaginal dehydroepiandrosterone (Intrarosa®) improves symptoms in menopausal women who have moderate to severe pain with intercourse. Intrarosa® vaginal inserts are a prescription medicine approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) used in women after menopause to treat moderate to severe pain during sexual intercourse caused by changes in and around the vagina that happen with menopause.
