Filter by:The study will be a randomized, open-label trial in children with the initial episode of SSNS and whose state of complete remission after received standard prednisolone, to determine whether rituximab (a single intravenous infusion of 375 mg/m2) would be noninferior to corticosteroid alone in maintaining complete disease remission during 12-month of follow-up.
1. To assess the value of serum Pentraxin-3 and high sensitive CRP in females with normal pregnancy and females with gestational diabetes mellitus in second trimester of pregnancy. 2. To study correlations between serum Pentraxin-3 and High sensitive CRP in gestational diabetes.
The objectives of the CAJESITO study are (i) to assess the tolerance of oral cashew nut immunotherapy, by describing the frequency and severity of allergic reactions during oral cashew nut immunotherapy and (ii )to assess the risk factors for severe allergic reactions during oral cashew nut immunotherapy (predictive factors, associated factors.
The aim of this thesis study is to determine the effect of compassion education on compassion adequacy and moral sensitivity in nursing students. The sample of the descriptive study consists of the first year nursing students studying at Süleyman Demirel University in the 2022-2023 academic year. The research will be carried out between October 2022 and September 2023. Research data will be collected from nursing students who volunteered to participate in the research by using the Personal Information Form, which includes the demographic characteristics of the students, the Compassion Adequacy Scale and the Modified Moral Sensitivity Scale for Nursing Students.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) affects one in seven people with gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. IBS strongly impacts quality of life, is a leading cause of work absenteeism, and consumes 0.5% of the healthcare annual budget. It manifests in women more than men with symptoms including abdominal pain, bloating, constipation (IBS-C), diarrhoea (IBS-D), and mixed presentations (IBS-M) (1). The development of therapeutic options is hampered by the poor understanding of the underlying cause of symptoms. Many patients find that certain foods (particularly carbohydrates) trigger their symptoms, and avoiding such foods has been shown effective in IBS, like in the low-FODMAP (fermentable oligo-, di-, mono-saccharides and polyols) exclusion diet. This has suggested that the food-symptom relation may involve malabsorption of carbohydrates due to inefficient digestion. However only a percentage of patients respond to this diet. Recently it has been reported that a subset of IBS carries hypomorphic (defective) gene variant of the sucrase isomaltase (SI), the enzyme that normally digests carbohydrates, sucrose and starch. This carbohydrate maldigestion (the breakdown of complex carbohydrates by a person's small bowel enzymes) is characterized by diarrhoea, abdominal pain and bloating, which are also features of IBS. This possibly occurs via accumulation of undigested carbohydrates in the large bowel, where they cause symptoms due to gas production following bacterial fermentation. Similar mechanisms may be acting at the level of other enzymes involved in the digestion, breakdown and absorption of carbohydrates (carb digestion genes -CDGs). Aim of the study is to study the prevalence of this genetic alteration in a large number of IBS patients as compared to asymptomatic controls.
In this project the investigators will test if it is possible to measure changes in intestinal gas production after supplementation of a complex fiber mixture over a 36 hour period in both lean normoglycemic individuals and individuals with insulin resistance and/or prediabetes with overweight when compared with a placebo Changes in intestinal gas production will also be related to energy expenditure, substrate metabolism, microbial composition and related metabolites in feces, blood and urine.
Final results from TITAN trial showed that apalutamide plus ADT improved OS in a population of patients with metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), if compared to ADT alone. However, stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) showed to improve outcomes of oligometastatic patients if compared to systemic therapy alone within modern randomized trial, including a mixed cohort of different pathologies. However, there are no trials specifically exploring the benefit offered by SBRT in oligometastatic mHSPC treated with Apalutamide if compared to Apalutamide alone associated to Androgen deprivation therapy. Thus, a randomized trial was designed to test specifically the hypotesis that SBRT will improve outcome in a selected population of oligometastatic mHSPC treated with Apalutamide and ADT, undergoing baseline staging according to local reimbursability.
To assess the feasibility and safety of Maximal cytoreductive therapies in patients with de novo mCSPC who achieve ≤10 oligopersistent metastases on PSMA PET CT after initial 3-month systemic treatment with apalutamide plus ADT. Maximal cytoreductive therapies consist of 1.cytoreductive radical prostatectomy with/without PLND guided by post-treatment PET 2.metastasis-directed therapy with radiation guided by post-treatment oligopersistent metastases. All patients receive continuous systemic treatment with apalutamide plus ADT.
Exposure to molds in dwellings is a public health problem. Diagnosis of hypersensitivity pneumonitis due to mold exposure at home (domestic HP) are increasing. To perform the serodiagnosis of domestic HP a cohort constitued of proven cases and exposed healthy controls are needed. The HOME HP study aimed at obtaining a cohort of proven cases and exposed controls in order to be able to improve the serodiagnosis of domestic HP.
The study will systematically evaluate how an emergency manual-a collection of checklists and fact sheets-affects the performance of resuscitation teams during the management of priority one patients in an emergency department.
