Those exhibiting persistent lice infestations were subsequently treated with 1% permethrin shampoo, the standard treatment, while alternatives were provided for individuals allergic to permethrin. These findings will contribute to formulating tailored, effective, and safe treatment regimens for future patients.
Assessing the Efficacy of Artificial Intelligence in Left Ventricular Function Screening Using Parasternal Long Axis View Cardiac Ultrasound Video Clips ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Echocardiography serves as a fundamental diagnostic procedure for managing heart failure patients. Data from Thailand's Ministry of Public Health reveals that there is a substantial patient population, with over 100,000 admissions annually due to this condition. Nevertheless, the widespread implementation of echocardiography in this patient group remains challenging, primarily due to limitations in specialist resources, particularly in rural community hospitals. Although modern community hospitals are equipped with ultrasound machines capable of basic cardiac assessment (e.g., parasternal long axis view), the demand for expert cardiologists remains a formidable obstacle to achieving comprehensive diagnostic capabilities. Leveraging the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, proficient in the accurate prediction and processing of diverse healthcare data types, offers a promising for addressing this prevailing issue. This study is designed to assess the effectiveness of AI in evaluating cardiac performance from parasternal long axis view ultrasound video clips obtained via the smartphone application. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence in screening cardiac function from parasternal long axis view cardiac ultrasound video clips obtained through the smartphone application.
The goal of this RCT is to compare efficacy between mirogabalin and pregabalin in pain reducing after unilateral primary total knee arthroplasty. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • Does mirogabalin have better pain reduction than pregabalin after unilateral primary total knee arthroplasty. Participants will randomized to mirogabalin or pregabalin group and will take the drug for 6 weeks after TKA. Researchers will compare to pregabalin group to see pain and functional outcomes after TKA.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the type of duodenal microbiota and duodenal microbiome in in FD patients compared to control group. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the differences in the type of duodenal microbiota and is there a difference in duodenal microbiome diversity between patients diagnosed with functional dyspepsia (FD) and the control group? - Are there any significant variations in the composition and diversity of gut microbiota between patients with FD and the control group, considering the method of sample collection (duodenal brushing vs. duodenal biopsy)?
Lung cancer is a common disease leading to 18 % of cancer deaths worldwide. Despite various improvement in treatment, there still remains low 5-year survival rate of 10-20 % in advanced lung cancer patients. Skeletal muscle mass and physical performance have been shown to effect overall survival and prognosis in lung cancer. This research focuses on effects of different treatment of lung cancer such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy on skeletal muscle mass and physical performance.
Many studies have shown a significant change of diversity and composition in gut microbiota across the gastric carcinogenesis process, particularly in patients with gastric cancer. However, there has been no analysis of gastric microbiota using the mucosal brushing technique, despite its favoring benefit in microbiota study. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate microbiota profile in patients with gastric cancer, compared to those without gastric cancer by using mucosal brush sampling. This will improve current knowledge of the potential role of the microbiome in patient gastric cancer as a future biomarker marker using brushing sampling.
This research project is evaluate the incidence of platelet refractoriness in newly diagnosed acute leukemia patients receiving PFB during induction and first consolidation phase chemotherapy compared to 2 historical control groups which are patients receiving non-leukocyte depleted blood product group and leukocyte depleted blood product group and demonstrate cost-effectiveness of using blood products with filtered process to prevent clinical platelet refractoriness compare with using HLA-matched blood products after platelet refractoriness occurs
The goal of this RCT is to investigate efficacy between restricted kinematic alignment and mechanical alignment TKA in simultaneous bilateral TKA patients. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does rKA have better functional outcomes than MA in simultaneous bilateral TKA patients? - Does rKA have lower pain score than MA in simultaneous bilateral TKA patients? Participants will undergo simultaneous bilateral TKA and randomized one side will use rKA and the other side will use MA.
A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 72 participants who had moderate knee osteoarthritis (Kellgren and Lawrence grade 2-3). The patients were randomly assigned to either the robotic-assisted or gyroscopic-assisted group. Baseline characteristics, including age, body mass index, length of stay, and estimated blood loss, were recorded. The primary outcome measure was the accuracy of the hip knee angle, measured by scannogram film preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 months. Secondary outcomes included functional outcomes (KOOS, Oxford knee score, EQ-5D-5L, range of motion) assessed preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 months, as well as at 6 months postoperatively.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of telerehabilitation-based and clinic-based methods to deliver a Core Stabilization Exercise Program with the Abdominal Drawing-In Maneuver Technique (CSE with ADIM) on pain intensity, functional ability, quality of life, and satisfaction in chronic low back pain patients with lumbar instability. The main question it aims to answer is: Is there a difference between the effectiveness of telerehabilitation-based and clinic-based CSE with ADIM on pain intensity, functional ability, quality of life, and satisfaction in chronic low back pain patients with lumbar instability? Participants will perform a 7-week core stabilization exercise with the abdominal drawing-in maneuver technique, consisting of an exercise program for 20-minute sessions with 3 sessions per week. These exercise programs will be provided to the participants via a weekly video call with the main researcher as a telerehabilitation program. At the first session of each week, the researcher will provide supervision via video call with the participant for the exercise program. The participants will perform the exercise by following the video demonstration. After completing weekly training, participants will perform their exercise routine as part of their daily home program. If there is a comparison group: researchers will compare The control group (clinical-base group) will be provided the 7-week core stabilization exercise with abdominal drawing-in maneuver technique, the same as the experimental group, but control groups received the exercise program at the clinic according to the usual methods. At the first session of each week, an appointment will be set, and then the specific exercise for each week will be delivered and trained by the main researcher at the clinic. After completing weekly training, participants will perform their exercise routine as part of their daily home program to see if there are any differences in pain intensity, functional ability, quality of life, and satisfaction in chronic low back pain patients with lumbar instability between the experimental and control groups.
