NCT ID: NCT06348004 Active, not recruiting - Cirrhosis Clinical Trials

The Association Between Albumin Administration and Short-term Rebleeding Risk in Cirrhosis Patients With Acute Variceal Hemorrhage and Stable Hemodynamics

Start date: February 1, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The impact of albumin administration in cirrhotics with acute variceal hemorrhage (AVH) is controversial. We aim to investigate the short-term rebleeding risk associated with albumin administration in a retrospective study of hospitalized cirrhotics with AVH with stable hemodynamics. This retrospective analysis includes clinical data of cirrhosis patients with acute variceal bleeding admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to October 2023. Propensity score matching will be performed to account for potential confounders associated with albumin use for outcome analysis. According to the outcome, patients will be divided into rebleeding group and non-rebleeding group. To investigate the impact of albumin infusion on the rebleeding risk in the propensity-matched cohort, patients will be divided into albumin user group and albumin non-user group. The primary outcome is the rebleeding risk within 30 days after discharge.

NCT ID: NCT06315361 Active, not recruiting - Diabetes Clinical Trials

DIAbetes and NAFLD

DIANA
Start date: May 20, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis (NAFLD) is characterised by the excessive accumulation of triglycerides in the liver and is often associated, in the absence of significant alcohol consumption, with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome with which it shares the most frequent clinical manifestations (hypertension, dyslipidaemia, visceral adiposity, glucose intolerance). Due to the pandemic spread of obesity and diabetes and by virtue of better control of viral hepatitis, NAFLD is the most common cause of liver damage in Western countries with a prevalence of around 20-30% of the general population. The clinical impact of NAFLD in diabetes is considerable and represents a real driver of the major clinical outcomes that impact on the health of the individual, consequently creating a real 'burden of disease' especially in those populations considered to be at higher risk of disease severity. Individuals with diabetes are, in fact, those at greatest risk of developing the clinical sequelae of NAFLD and often do not receive adequate hepatological support and a correct hepatic pathology. In fact, it has been documented in the literature that the presence of diabetes increases the severity of liver damage, bringing the risk of NASH up to 80% and increasing the risk of significant fibrosis to 30-40% of subjects with hepatic steatosis as well as representing an independent predictor for significant fibrosis. Lastly, the increased risk of hepatocarcinoma in subjects with diabetes and NAFLD should not be overlooked, as documented by our group and confirmed in a large Italian case series. In subjects with diabetes, moreover, the presence of NAFLD is not only associated with worse glycaemic control, but also with micro- and macro-vascular complications as well as nephrological and neuropathic complications and increased mortality. Therefore, the possibility of applying the non-invasive fibrosis scores currently available for NAFLD on a large scale, in a population at high risk of progressive liver disease, would make it possible to characterise (a) the true epidemiology of significant fibrosis (F3 or higher); (b) allow primary prevention actions to be carried out by optimising the use of resources or by identifying subjects at greater risk of damage progression; (c) understand, in cases with a long history of disease the true prevalence of clinical outcomes; (d) understand the epidemiology of comorbidities and polypharmacy as a function of significant fibrosis.

NCT ID: NCT06191367 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Post-COVID-19 Syndrome

Effect of Aerobic Exercises Versus Incentive Spirometer Device on Post-covid Pulmonary Fibrosis Patients

Start date: February 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

the aim of this study will be to investigate the effect of aerobic exercises vs incentive spirometer device on post-covid patients with residual lung diseases.

NCT ID: NCT06184763 Active, not recruiting - Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Trials

Evolution of the 6-minute Walk Test in Patients Treated With ELEXACAFTOR / TEZACAFTOR / IVACAFTOR

TEMETI
Start date: August 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of the study is to identify a link between the new CFTR modulators and physical activity in cystic fibrosis patients. The triple combination of CFTR modulators (ELEXACAFTOR / TEZACAFTOR/ IVACAFTOR) has recently changed the management of cystic fibrosis. This treatment has been shown to rapidly improve patients' respiratory function, with a gain in FEV1 at 1 month ranging from 10.4% to 13.6%. It also reduces the number of respiratory exacerbations and improves the nutritional status and quality of life of treated patients. To date, there is limited data on the impact of these new therapies on physical activity. Few studies have investigated changes in exercise or physical activity parameters under ELEXACAFTOR / TEZACAFTOR/ IVACAFTOR. The 6-minute walk test is a validated field test used routinely to assess the exercise capacity of patients with chronic respiratory diseases, including cystic fibrosis.

NCT ID: NCT06106789 Active, not recruiting - Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Trials

A Study of the Clinical Benefit of Tobramycin Inhalation Solution

Start date: January 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This project will use literature analysis, expert research, real-world data mining and other methods to investigate the current status of the application of antimicrobial aerosolized inhalation in healthcare institutions, combine expert recommendations and real-world data analysis results to explore potential risk points in the process of antimicrobial aerosolized drug delivery, and sort out the key points of drug use management in healthcare institutions and the key points of regulatory recommendations for healthcare institutions.

NCT ID: NCT06084468 Active, not recruiting - Stroke Clinical Trials

Cardiac Structure and Function in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis

Start date: January 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In a prospective observational cohort study (n = 100), the investigators aim to assess the correlation between cardiac biomarkers, advanced echocardiography and cystic fibrosis genotype and severity and determine whether these are prognostic markers of heart disease in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF).

NCT ID: NCT06057558 Active, not recruiting - Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Trials

Airway Microbiome of Cystic Fibrosis Patients

Start date: January 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

With this study, the investigators first want to investigate the respiratory tract microbiome of cystic fibrosis patients. To achieve this, the investigators will collect longitudinal samples of saliva, throat and sputum and process these to determine the microbial composition and compare them over a timecourse of a year. Secondly, the investigators aim to study the influence of a topical microbiome therapy (throat spray) on the microbiome of the upper and lower respiratory tract in cystic fibrosis patients after administration for 6 weeks. Bacterial and cytokine profiles of salivary, throat and sputum samples will be monitored before, during and after intervention.

NCT ID: NCT06020612 Active, not recruiting - Recurrence Clinical Trials

Interobserver Variability Desmoplasia

Start date: July 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

According to the most recent guideline of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), desmoplasia is considered to be a very high risk factor for recurrence, metastasis and death in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). The presence of desmoplasia is assessed by dermatopathologists during histological examination of cSCCs. However, the inter-observer agreement is between dermatopathologists in the assessment of desmoplasia is unclear. Studies on inter-observer variability in the assessment of differentiation grade in cSCCs showed that there is only a weak to moderate agreement among dermatopathologists in the assessment of differentiation grade (2-4). This study aims to investigate the interobserver agreement of desmoplasia between dermatopathologists. In this prospective study, 50 cSCCs will be assessed for desmoplasia by at least eight dermatopathologists using a predefined definition.

NCT ID: NCT05920226 Active, not recruiting - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Myocardial Fibrosis in Patients With Permanent Pacemakers

Start date: July 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Patients with cardiac pathology and arrhythmias including those who have indications for pacemakers implantation will be included in the study. We will determine the influence of pacemaker implantation with the localization of the ventricular electrode in the top of the right ventricle or the middle third of the right ventricle according to echocardiographic and electrocardiographic parameters, congestive heart failure progression, patients' quality of life and follow-up therapy of patients with identified myocardial fibrosis with existing pacemaker. Study of changes in echocardiography, electrocardiography, myocardial fibrosis markers, the quality of life of patients will allow to choose the most optimal localization of the ventricular electrode during implantation of the permanent pacemakers system in order to improve the quality of life of the patients.
