Filter by:The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the natural course and prognosis of hospitalized patients with liver cirrhosis.
ORV-PF-01 is a two way, placebo controlled, cross-over study, to evaluate the effect of two doses of orvepitant on cough in patients with IPF.
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of liver transplantation and standard immunosuppression on body composition in patients with compensated cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.
The aim of this study was to developed and validated models to predict hepatic decompensation and survivals in pediatric patients with cirrhosis and compared these models with currently available models.
This is a single arm prospective pilot trial that evaluates the ability of a novel imaging agent (68Ga-FAP-2286) to identify pathologic fibrosis in the setting of hepatic, cardiac and pulmonary fibrosis. FAP-2286 is a peptide that potently and selectively binds to Fibroblast Activation Protein (FAP). FAP is a transmembrane protein expressed on fibroblasts and has been shown to have higher expression in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), cirrhosis, and cardiac fibrosis.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. As an independent predictor of cardiovascular mortality, particularly for stroke, its management is a real public health issue. AF is associated with diabetes, obesity, hypertension, heart failure and, occasionally, hyperthyroidism. Atrial fibrosis is one of the major players in the genesis and maintenance of AF. It has a strong impact on rhythmic prognosis and treatment success. Currently the AF ablation is the treatment recommended by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and by the American Society of Cardiology. The rate of AF recurrence is variable according to the patient characteristics and remains unfortunately today difficult to predict. Abnormal concentrations of circulating biomarkers reflecting the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms of myocardial fibrosis could help to identify patients at higher risk of developing AF and/or AF recurrence after ablation. Thus, the development of simple, reliable and valid biological tests of atrial fibrosis would allow the clinicians i) to estimate the potential success of AF ablation; ii) to predict AF recurrence; iv) and to propose a AF personalized therapeutic approach. The main objective of PROFIB-AF study is to identify, among biological markers (ICTP, PICP, PIIINP, sRAGE, AGE, Galectin 3, sSt2, microRNAs) of myocardial fibrosis, those which can predict the recurrence risk after AF ablation.
The composition treats cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (Hcc) at an early stage. The product is extracted from herbs, including Adenosma glutinosum extract, Eclipta prostrata extract, Phyllanthus urinaria extract, Impatiens balsamina extract, Ascorbic acid, pyridoxine 5-phosphate, L-Arginine hydrochloride, Pregnenolone acetate. These components have participated in repairing and regenerating new liver parenchyma, preventing fibrosis cell generation, preventing liver cancer cell growth at an early stage. The composition supplements precursors which help the body strengthen antibodies and reduce the risk of inflammation, restore physiological and biochemical functions of liver cells after chronic inflammation.
This is a single-arm clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of left atrial isolation achieved by catheter ablation in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation with severe atrial fibrosis.
Homecare patient support program especially designed for covering IPF patient needs, implemented for 12 months, for improving quality of life
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease characterized by abnormal chloride transport in epithelial tissues. Inflammation is a key component contributing to the main alterations induced by the disease. The increase in life expectancy comes with a higher prevalence of CF-related comorbidities, but also with new emerging complications directly related to aging. Physical fitness and exercise practice have been previously associated to survival and better quality of life in patients with cystic fibrosis. Thus, the aim of this study is to assess the effects of a remotely supervised resistance exercise program on lung function, muscle strength, body composition, quality of life and inflammatory markers in adult patients with cystic fibrosis.
