There are about 36633 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in France. 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.
In the type 2 diabetic population, some patients are particularly at risk of developing early heart failure. Finding markers to identify these at-risk individuals is therefore an important scientific objective in order to avoid/delay the development of heart failure. The protocol will be proposed to type 2 diabetic patients hospitalized for insulin therapy upon admission to the diabetology department and healthy volunteers.
This aim of this study is the evaluation of the gut microbiota imbalance occurrence and its characterization in patients with common variable immunodeficiency associated to an enteropathy with or without porto-sinusoidal vascular disease.
People with anorexia nervosa are known to engage in significant physical activity or sports. This practice is problematic because of the state of malnutrition, its interference with re-nutrition and the somatic and nutritional complications that the effect of physical activity can cause in these people. This significant physical activity is also called hyperactivity in the literature, it is in fact a problematic use of physical activity, it is a symptom commonly observed in people suffering from anorexia nervosa (in 31 to 80% cases). In this context, Ms. Kern lecturer in Sciences and Techniques of Physical and Sports Activities (STAPS) at the University of Paris Nanterre has developed in collaboration with the clinical team (Pre Godart) an adapted physical activity program (APA) , for patients suffering from anorexia nervosa. The APA program includes 8 sessions of 1h30 including an important part of psychoeducation. The effectiveness of this program will be evaluated in terms of both restoration of body mass index and improvement in overall health. The project's hypothesis is that adding a standardized 8-week Adapted Physical Activity program to the usual care, including psychoeducation on both problematic physical activity and the consequences in terms of good practice of physical activity leads to a better outcome of overall care in people with anorexia nervosa.
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic liver disease, which is characterized by the increase of immunoglobulin G (IgG) level, the presence of auto-antibodies and a typical histology, in the absence of other liver disease. Due to the heterogeneity of AIH manifestations, different scoring systems have been validated in order to make a reliable diagnosis. The two most recent scoring systems are: the revised International Autoimmune Hepatitis Group (IAIHG) criteria and the IAIHG simplified criteria. The second one is recommended by the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) clinical practice guidelines (CPGs). The EASL clinical practice guidelines suggests that the treatment of ASAIH (Acute Severe AIH) is high doses of corticosteroids (superior to 1mg/kg/day) as early as possible and a lack of improvement within seven days should lead to listing for emergency liver transplantation (LT). However, the "lack of improvement" is not objectively defined and the grading of recommendation is III (Opinions of respected authorities). The hypothesis of the study is that the previously developed decisional score on a retrospective series will prospectively allow the differentiation between patients with ASAIH (Acute Severe AIH) who respond to corticosteroid therapy and should be maintained on treatment and patients who do not respond and should be rapidly evaluated for LT. The score will be computed at day 3 since corticosteroid introduction.
The optimal screening methods for coronary insufficiency, a frequent and pejorative complication in diabetics, are subject to debate, particularly in situations of silent myocardial ischemia. The contemporary strategy consists of pre-selecting asymptomatic patients at very high cardiovascular (CV) risk by performing a coronary calcium score. If this is found to be high >300 AU (Agatston units), the patient is suspected of being at high risk of silent myocardial ischemia (SMI), and the assessment is completed to exclude the presence of coronary artery disease likely to benefit from revascularization. The complementary evaluation consists in evaluating the myocardial perfusion to judge the perfusion repercussions. The most common examination to date is myocardial scintigraphy, because stress tests are too frequently submaximal in diabetics. However, the reproducibility of scintigraphy is controversial and their sensitivity and specificity are debated in this indication. This problem is similar in stable symptomatic coronary diabetic patients for whom an indication for functional examinations is justified. The double-energy double-layer spectral scanner (SDEDC) could now become a relevant tool in this field, since it can combine not only anatomical data (identification of coronary stenosis) but also functional data (myocardial perfusion) during a stress protocol. thanks to the spectral images which make it possible to measure the tissue concentration of intramyocardial iodine downstream of the considered stenosis.
The project's objective is to carry out prospectively, in France, for one year, a descriptive registry study in the management of patients with borderline or locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and to collect both the patient's demographic characteristics, but also the therapeutic regimens applied, the types of surgeries performed and the outcome of the patients after surgery, and at three months of follow up (preoperative data, complications's post surgery, quality of the resection, etc.)
5 and 10 years follow-up of the oxyop study.
The Lost Children Society (LCS) is a Therapeutic TableTop Role-Playing Game specifically developed for early-onset schizophrenia patient. It is performed online via a secure teleconsultation and videoconference platform. Patients are connected from their home, on their personal computer or tablet, equipped with headsets with microphone. This study aims to validate the feasibility of this online Therapeutic TableTop Role Playing Game.
Intensive care has known an important scientists progress for the last twenty years, allowing to heal more and more severe patients. Throughout the time, population has been getting old more and more, making patients affected by several diseases. As any medical specialty, intensive care has been confronted to these both evolutions. Thus ethical issues subsist for many years concerning rationality of cares intensity given to the patients. Withholding or withdrawing of life-sustaining therapy represents a non-negligible part of deaths in intensive care units in France. Throughout the years, it has been more and more leading French laws, as the Clayes-Leonetti law, one of the most important and recent one, which has governed ending life patients' rights since 2016. Thus it appears interesting to propose this study to evaluate proportion of withholding or withdrawing of life-sustaining therapy and their conditions of setting up in a maximum of intensive care units in the Grand-Est region in France in 2022 ; and to collect family's feelings concerning these decisions.
Urinary bladder tumors with a frequency of 13000 new cases a year, have a heterogeneity in terms of survival according to the stage of local flooding. This is an aggressive tumor because of the potential muscular infiltration. It seems important in this case (muscular invasion), to increase the global survival. The anatomopathological analysis of the TURB (biopsy byTrans-Urethral Resection of the Bladder) is actually the gold standard for the pathology of bladder tumor. No need an imaging to discuss about the small and non muscular invasive tumor. But in most cases, the use is to perform at last an ultrasound or a CT-Scan, specially for the invasive tumor. A lot of studies show that CT SCAN. is not the best way of investigation for the bladder muscle invasion. However, as in the prostate cancer with the PIRADS Score, the MRI can be useful for the bladder, thanks to the sequence improvement to the machine. The study from Panebianco 2018, starts to talk about the MRI in the urinary bladder cancer with new radiological terms. It creates a new score called VIRADS score (as the PIRADS score already used for the prostate cancer). But it is never compared with the results of the TURB. Our study compares the results of the MRI pre operative versus the pathology results on prospective analysis. Main objective : T tumoral score in urinary bladder tumor : MRI versus pathology results. Secondary objectives : the contribution of diffusion weighted MRI in the bladder neoplasm. Type of study : interventional study, prospective, mono centric, single arm, intent-to-treat
