This study aims to detect the prevalence of practicing oral habits among a group of school children in Cairo, Egypt.
Non-cardiac acute and chronic inflammatory conditions are associated with high risk of acute myocardial infarction. Specifically, there are reports of high prevalence of AMI and cardiac death in chronic conditions such as Rheumatoid arthritis, chronic gum disease, psoriasis and Chronic airway disease. Furthermore, there are intriguing temporal links between acute non-cardiac conditions, including fractured neck of femur and admission for chest infection in the elderly and subsequent risk of AMI within the next few weeks. Finally, a more recent association has been reported between COVID vaccination and acute thrombotic events. In Summary, a link between acute non-cardiac inflammatory conditions and subsequent AMI in a near term envelope is established, but unexplained, and circumstantial evidence so far suggests a possible mechanism in terms of dynamic alteration in platelet reactivity. It is this concept we wish to explore further in the proposed set of experiments. Our experiments may provide some insight into a potential mechanism of such an association, which could have implications for future tailored therapeutic interventions. We will recruit 5 groups of patients, consistent with the data produced previously and the literature regarding disease models of non-cardiac inflammations. Aiming to recruit 20 patients per group with 100 candidates in total. Groups including: 1. Fracture neck of femur. 2. Patients >70 years age admitted with chest infection. 3. Healthy volunteers receiving fourth COVID booster vaccine. 4. Patients admitted with AMI within 6 weeks of (fractured neck of femur, chest infection Rheumatoid arthritis flare up, exacerbation of psoriasis and exacerbation of inflammatory bowel disease). 5. AMI secondary to stent thrombosis. Study will be undertaken within the Cardiothoracic unit at University Hospital Southampton, the sponsor will be UHS Research and Development Department, UHS.
Cardiovascular disease is regarded as main predisposing risk factor for cerebrovascular stroke. Cardiac dysfunction can both worsen the pre existing cerebral damage and cause new brain injury Diseases of the heart and the brain are closely entangled. Vascular diseases of both organs share the same risk factors.
The study aims to compare the pain , duration of intervention and long term outcomes of laser hemorrhoidoplasty versus open surgical hemorrhoidectomy
This is a multi-center, randomized, parallel controlled, double-blinded clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Hydrogen-Oxygen Generator with Nebulizer for adjuvant treatment of COVID-19 patients. The test group is expected to be superior to the control group in the primary endpoint (percentage of subjects achieving clinical recovery at Day 7 of study treatment). Subjects in the test group will receive treatment by using Hydrogen-Oxygen Generator with Nebulizer (manufactured by Shanghai Asclepius Meditec Co., Ltd., flow rate: 3L/min) combined with conventional basic supportive treatment (symptomatic support treatment determined by the investigator based on the condition of the subjects); and subjects in the control group will receive treatment by using Medical Molecular Sieve Oxygen Generator (manufactured by Shanghai Ouliang Medical Devices Co., Ltd., flow rate: 3L/min, provided by the sponsor) combined with conventional basic supportive treatment (same with that in the test group).
To examine the prevelance of autoimmune disorders and rheumatic manifestations in egyptian patients with inflammatory bowel diseases,and asses the relation between prevelance of autoimmune disorders ,rheumatic manifestations and disease activity of IBD
A multicenter prospective study was conducted to compare the predictive value of 6-zone, 10-zone, and 12-zone LUS scores for PS application in early and late preterm infants.
Surgery remains an important treatment modality in the treatment of hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) malignancies, but the physiological stress caused by surgery is at the same time a challenge for the homeostasis of patients. A patient's preoperative aerobic capacity has been found to have a consistent relation with postoperative outcomes in major abdominal surgery, with low aerobic capacity being associated with a higher risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Preoperative exercise prehabilitation programs can effectively increase the ability of patients to cope with surgical-induced allostatic load, by improving aerobic capacity, and functioning of the respiratory, cardiovascular, and/or musculoskeletal systems. However, besides the effect of exercise prehabilitation on physical fitness in terms of improvement of aerobic capacity as measured by the cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET), the exact role of adaptations in cardiac and/or skeletal muscle function contributing to the improvement in aerobic capacity is still unknown. Insight in the physiological adaptations that lead to improvement in aerobic capacity after prehabilitation in patients with low aerobic capacity will enable caregivers to individually optimize the exercise program (e.g. by changing exercise frequency, intensity, duration and type) and better explain the rationale and effectiveness behind the short-term physical exercise training program to patients. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to assess the central (cardiac function) and peripheral (skeletal muscle function) physiological adaptations in response to short-term exercise prehabilitation. Secondary objective is to assess the relationship between immune function and exercise. In this study, unfit patients are asked to undergo additional in-magnet exercise testing to investigate the central and peripheral physiological adaptations in response to exercise prehabilitation.
The study is a follow-up of a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) performed in 2007-10 - the "Lifestyle in Pregnancy" LiP study. The LiP study included 360 pregnant women with BMI ≥30 kg/m2 from Odense University Hospital and Aarhus University Hospital. The women were randomized to intervention with low-calorie diet and physical activity from gestational age 10-14 in pregnancy and until delivery - or to a standard care control group. The objective of the LiPO-Teen project is to perform a clinical follow-up study of the eligible 301 mothers who completed the trial until delivery with a liveborn child, and their 14 year-old offspring. The overall ambition is to understand whether lifestyle intervention in pregnancy prevents obesity and its complications across generations, with a specific focus on modifiable factors.
ARES is a multicenter, single-arm, phase 2 trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ADT in combination with apalutamide as an adjuvant regimen for patients with high risk of recurrence after radical prostatectomy.
