Filter by:The trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of the olfactory mucosa-derived mesenchymal stem cells based therapy for the patients with chronic laryngeal and tracheal stenosis
Multi-centre, multi-national, observational, prospective registry in four central full access centres in Germany (2), France (1) and the United Kingdom (1) and up to two satellites per hub (smaller hospitals / office based cardiologists (OBC) without access to surgical and percutaneous aortic valve (AV) interventions). The hypothesis is that the management of patients with severe AS will differ between sites with on-site access to all treatment modes and those without such facilities.
INCREASE OF PROSTAGLANDIN E2 IN REVERSAL OF DUCTAL CONSTRICTION AFTER DIETARY RESTRICTION OF POLYPHENOLS. Clinical trial with a healthy group as comparator. The interventional group was made up of third-trimester mothers whose single fetuses had ductal constriction, excluding those exposed to NSAID, and the control group only by third-trimester normal fetuses. The interventional group was submitted to dietary orientation to restrict polyphenol-rich foods and both groups answered a food frequency questionnaire after fetal Doppler-echocardiographic examination and blood draw for PGE2 levels analysis. After two weeks, the women were again submitted to fetal echocardiogram, dietary assessment and blood draw.
This is a pilot study designed to assess the relationship between iFR (instantaneous wave-free ratio) pullback and the distribution of coronary atheroma/stenoses as assessed by Quantitative Coronary Angiography (QCA) post angiographically successful PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention).
Lumbar stenosis (LSS) is the most frequent degenerative lumbar disease and is the most frequent indication for spinal surgery. When non-invasive treatments fail, decompression surgery is the gold standard therapy for the majority of patients and generally improves symptoms. However, few studies have investigated the improvement in posture (radiological parameters) after surgery. In lumbar stenosis, patients may present a forward leaning posture (to relieve pain), which is responsible for sagittal imbalance. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the repercussions of decompression surgery on sagittal balance and to compare these with aux clinical results. investigators included patients operated on for isolated lumbar canal stenosis.
The method of esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) to remove superficial esophageal neoplasms has gained widespread acceptance as an alternative to surgery recently these years especially in Asian countries. However, besides of perforation and bleeding, another complication postoperative esophageal stricture is frequently observed after the removal of large-sized esophageal neoplasms by ESD. Dysphagia caused by postoperative stricture substantially decreases the patient's quality of life, requiring further therapy. Although the exact incidence is unknown, esophageal stricture is supposed to be related to the extent of the circumference being resected. In previous study by Ono et al，it is reported that 90% of patients with lesions of circumferential extension of more than three-fourths experienced postoperative stricture after esophageal ESD. There were some reported studies exploring new ways to prevent esophageal stricture after ESD, such as oral prednisolone and local corticosteroid injection. Corticosteroids can inhibit not only collagen synthesis but also enhance collagen breakdown, thereby inhibiting stricture formation. Some studies reveled that just oral prednisolone oral is effective option for the prevention of post-ESD stricture. However, most of the reported studies were non RCTs with small sample. In the primary study, the investigators search a new method of combination of both oral and local injection to prevent esophageal stricture，as a result，stricture at 8 weeks after ESD was found in 19 of 36 patients in the no corticosteroid group but only 4 of 34 in the corticosteroid group. Unfortunately，the study was also retrospective. So, the investigators plan to undertake a prospective, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the prophylactic effects of combination of local steroid injection with oral steroid administration for esophageal stenoses complicating extensive ESD.
