Filter by:The investigators plan to collect throat swabs, saliva, feces and serum samples from pancreatic cancer patients, chronic pancreatitis patients and healthy people and clarify the characteristics of oral flora and serum metabolome of pancreatic cancer patients.
Severe and disabling abdominal pain is common in individuals with chronic pancreatitis. Although pain is associated with reduced quality of life and high economic and societal costs, there are limited effective options for pain management in this population. This study proposes an evidence-based psychological intervention approach using an internet-delivered pain self-management program to minimize the impact of pain and improve quality of life. The ultimate goal is to maximize the public health impact of the intervention with successful implementation and dissemination to pancreas clinics and to the community.
This is an observational prospective study to develop predictive biomarkers for pain response in participants with chronic pancreatitis scheduled for endoscopic therapy. Participants will undergo baseline assessments including electroencephalography (EEG), quantitative sensory testing (QST), and psychosocial questionnaires. Response to endoscopic therapy will be assessed at approximately 3, 6, 12 and 18 months post-procedure using questionnaires.
The aim of this randomized trial is to assess the efficacy of EUS-CPB in the alleviation of abdominal pain in patients with chronic pancreatitis.
The main reason for this research study is to find out more about acute recurrent pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis in children. There are few studies on childhood pancreatitis, so diagnosis and treatment are based on adult studies. This limits our understanding and treatment of these disorders in children. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a tool used to assess and diagnose pancreatic disease. We can use ultrasound with shear wave elastography (SWE) to measure fibrosis (scarring) of the pancreas. We can use SWE on both EUS and transabdominal ultrasound (TUS) systems. Both TUS and EUS SWE have been studied for diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis in adult patients, however they have not been studied in children. We plan to use EUS SWE and TUS SWE information in this study to help us understand pancreatitis in children. Children with pancreatitis and children without pancreatitis (controls) will be invited to participate in this study.
This research is studying a new noninvasive device-based therapy called Transcutaneous Electrical Acustimulation (TEA) to learn about its safety and how well it works as a treatment of pain in chronic pancreatitis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential of TEA to treat abdominal pain in patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP). The study hypothesizes that TEA can be used as a non-pharmaceutical opioid-free approach to treat pain in chronic pancreatitis.
The goal of this observational study is to improve the epidemiological data of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency in China, determine the FE-1 cut-off value for the classification of PEI, and explore the characteristic differences between T3cDM and type 2 diabetes mellitus in clinical symptoms and laboratory indicators.
To evaluate the islet function and insulin secretion pattern of post-pancreatitis diabetes mellitus by oral glucose tolerance testing, and to explore the pathophysiological characteristics of PPDM-C which provide evidence for the diagnosis of PPDM-C.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether adult stem cells, called mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) collected from the patient's bone marrow can help reduce pain caused by chronic pancreatitis and improve pancreatic function.
