Filter by:The purpose of the trial is to compare the effectiveness and safety of 2 treatment regimens of CAM2029 (given weekly or every 2 weeks) to placebo in participants with symptomatic PLD, either isolated as in autosomal dominant PLD (ADPLD) or associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). In the Treatment Period of the trial, participants will be allocated at random to 1 of the 3 treatment arms in a 1:1:1 ratio. After completing the Treatment Period (53 weeks) participants may proceed to a 24-week open-label extension part of the trial and then only receive the same CAM2029 treatment. The active ingredient in CAM2029, octreotide, is administered as a subcutaneous depot using Camurus' FluidCrystal® technology.
The aim of this prospective case series is to present clinical results with cystostomy, decompression and final enucleation of odontogenic cysts using a decompression device fabricated with a full digital workflow and delivered on the day of cystostomy. The secondary purpose of our study is to present the volumetric changes of the odontogenic cysts treated by decompression.
Primary sarcopenia is used to describe aging and progressed with the physiologic decline. Secondary sarcopenia is associated many chronic disease, including acquired immune deficiency syndrome, cancer, chronic heart failure, chronic lung disease, liver cirrhosis, chronic kidney disease and rheumatoid arthritis. In the past, nutrition status is evaluated by body mass index, mid-upper -arm circumference and serum albumin. Bioelectrical impedance analysis is also a common method to measured body composition, but bioelectrical impedance analysis will be affected by tissue edema and ascites. In contrast, cross-section imaging, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance can analyzed abdominal muscle and fat accurately. Since computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging can evaluate the severity of polycystic liver and kidney disease. Investigators can use cross section imaging at 3rd lumber level to separate skeletal muscle and fat tissue. Previous studies showed the quantity and quality of abdominal muscle are important prognostic factor after liver transplantation. Besides, chronic kidney disease and receiving renal placement therapy lead protein catabolism and make patients with end stage renal disease have sarcopenia. Finally, patients with polycystic liver and kidney disease have organomegaly, which causes abdominal distention and poor appetite. Therefore, the aim of this study is to observe the association between skeletal muscle mass and the severity of disease and to study whether change in hepatic and renal volumes is associated with change in muscle mass.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of computer aided diagnostic tool for neck masses using machine learning and deep learning techniques on clinical information and radiological images in children.
The project aims at analysing prognostic and predictive factors involved in diagnostics and surgical treatment of cysts and tumors in the pancreas and periampullary region using both clinical data and blood and tissue samples for biomarker development and validation.
This is a prospective, cohort, randomized clinical trial examining the effect of simple renal cysts on renal function.
This study aims to describe the clinical outcomeand the radiological appearance of aneurysmal bone cyst treated by means of interventional radiology procedures (percutaneous sclerosis and endovascular embolization)
The pathogenesis of sacral Tarlov cysts (TCs) is still unclear. In this study, histological techniques were used to clarify the anatomical membranous layers of TCs and further explore the pathogenesis of them.Although many approaches have been used to treat TCs, there is no consensus on the optimal treatment. Microsurgery is now increasingly recommended as the preferred treatment with the best long-term outcomes.However, some authors have proposed the opposite view because current microsurgical techniques fail to completely close the ostium between the cyst and subarachnoid space.Consequently, could lead to leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, pseudomeningocele , or a high frequency of cysts recurrence, which are the main reasons for surgical failure and also the biggest scruple when microsurgery is chosen. Herein, we present a new method of cyst separation and ostium closure, and evaluate its clinical reliability and effectiveness for surgical treatment of Tarlov cysts through the prospective study.
The aim of our study is to compare the effect of laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy on ovarian reserve in terms of different cyst types.
In this study we would like to examine the effect of GnRH antagonist administration at the beginning of the follicular phase in patient presenting with a simple ovarian cyst 25-50 mm. The aim of this intervention is to allow a spontaneous regression of the ovarian cyst (if in nature) while ensuring a pituitary downregulation to prevent the beginning of a leading follicle recruitment. As previous studies using GnRH antagonist pre-treatment prior to GT initiation for other purposes demonstrated positive results (including different patient population) , no deleterious effects are expected.
