There are about 36818 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in China. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
This study intends to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in the population of physical examination centers and communities. The physical examination population from the health management center of the Third Xiangya Hospital and the family-based community residents in Changsha were randomly selected. The H. pylori infection was detected by carbon-13 urea breath test (13C-UBT), and the related factors of H. pylori infection were investigated by questionnaire survey. The study provides supporting evidences to implement family-base H. pylori management to curb its intrafamilial spread. The results have important clinical implications in refinement of eradication strategies and impact on public health policy formulation for related disease prevention.
Rising thyroid carcinoma rates, with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) as the main type (85-90% of cases), often show early cervical lymph node spread. This increases the risk of PTC patients for recurrence and death. A new study's multimodal model fuses preoperative US and cytology images to better predict lymph node metastasis, aiming to improve treatment plans, reduce unnecessary surgeries, and enhance patient outcomes.
Gangrenous cholecystitis is the most common complication of acute cholecystitis. There is no research using machine learning models to construct predictive diagnostic models for gangrenous cholecystitis.
Post-thoracotomy pain syndrome (PTPS) affects respiratory function, hindering sputum clearance and ventilation, and represents a significant complication of thoracic surgery. The analgesic effect of esketamine combined with butorphanol in PTPS is still unclear, so this study focused on this aspect.
To retrospectively analyze the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative anesthesia management of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy undergoing TA-BSM in the investigators' hospital, and to provide clinical basis for the development of reasonable and standardized perioperative anesthesia program for these patients.
Our team has previously published articles providing detailed descriptions of the steps involved in both RS and LS. All surgeries adhered to the total mesorectal excision (TME) principle. In RS, a surgeon employed the Da Vinci Xi surgical system featuring a five-port setup, while five physicians conducted LS with a similarly configured five-port approach. Both the RS and LS doctors are experienced. The surgeries were conducted according to standard procedures, and the RS group utilized totally robotic rectal resection.
During the period from February 2018 to February 2022, a study was conducted on patients with parastomal hernia.There were 23 patients who underwent repair surgery for D-type colostomy hernia, while 68 patients underwent traditional laparoscopic repair surgery for hernia.The inclusion criteria were: (1) preoperative diagnosis of parastomal hernia by CT scan; (2) underwent laparoscopic repair surgery or combined laparoscopic repair with abdominal wall and stoma reconstruction surgery.The exclusion criteria were: (1) occurrence of tumor recurrence and/or new tumors during the follow-up period; (2) death or loss to follow-up during the follow-up period.
Numerous comparison studies on the outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of rectal cancer have been undertaken and reported. But there aren't many studies that compare the safety and effectiveness of the two surgery procedures used to treat people with mid and low rectal cancer who have different body mass indexes (BMIs). This study was done to organize the clinical data we had at our hospital so we could compare the perioperative effectiveness of two minimally invasive approaches for people with different BMIs.
he percentage of retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS) among all soft tissue sarcomas ranges from 10%-15%. Surgery remains the gold standard for RPS. In this study, we analyzed the impact of surgical treatment for primary RPS on recurrence and overall mortality at a Chinese institution and identified and evaluated prognostic variables.
This retrospective study collected participants who underwent robotic or laparoscopic anterior resection for rectal cancer at the North People's Hospital in Jiangsu from January 2019 to January 2023.
