Filter by:The investigators here propose to investigate the timing and pattern of myocardial fibrosis activity following acute myocardial infarction using hybrid 68Ga-FAPI positron emission tomography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance. The investigators hypothesise that peak fibrosis activity will occur within 2-4 weeks of acute myocardial infarction and will predict subsequent scar formation and cardiac remodelling. Simultaneously, matrix remodelling and fibrosis activity in aortic and coronary atheroma will be assessed enabling the exploration of the presence of unstable atheroma.
An expanded access program that provides INOpulse treatment to patients with serious disease or conditions associated with pulmonary hypertension associated with pulmonary fibrosis who are not able to participate in the Sponsor's ongoing Phase 3 REBUILD clinical.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the home-based inspiratory muscle training program on lung functions, dyspnea, inspiratory muscle strength, functional capacity and quality of life in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Patients are evaluated before the inspiratory muscle training and after 8 weeks of training.
AMB-053-01 is a randomized, placebo controlled, multicenter study which will enroll approximately 36 subjects ages 40 and older with IPF for 6 doses over a 24-week dosing period.
The study compares the effectiveness and safety of TIPS implantation in patients with HRS-AKI (stage 2 and 3) and liver cirrhosis with standard therapy (drug therapy with terlipressin + albumin).
The purpose of this study is to allow early access to brensocatib for participants with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFBE) who have successfully completed the INS1007301 ASPEN Clinical trial.
This study has two purposes. One is to conduct a phase IV biomarker validation study in which the investigators will prospectively survey a cohort of patients at risk for liver cancer using semi-annual abdominal ultrasound and GALAD Score for 5 years. The GALAD score is a serum biomarker-based panel that can aid in early detection among patients with a high risk for liver cancer. One is to establish a bio-repository of longitudinally collected bio-specimens from patients with fibrosis/cirrhosis as a reference set for future research.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a chronic multiorgan disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene. Chronic airway infection by bacterial pathogens accounts for the progressive, suppurative pulmonary disease that leads to significant morbidity and mortality in patients with CF. Neutrophil recruitment to the lungs accounts the most important contributor to pulmonary destruction. However, there is evidence that platelets may also have an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammation. To our knowledge, there is few information in platelet levels in patients with cystic fibrosis during pulmonary exacerbation, chronic airway colonization and when stable.
In this study, the investigators compared the improvement of and azygoportal disconnection related indicators in patients with liver cirrhosis after laparoscopic splenectomy. To determine whether surgical treatment can help enhance postoperative immune function and improve patient prognosis.
