Filter by:The aim of this clinical study is; Comparatively comparing salivary Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor (SuPAR), Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), E-cadherin, galectin 3, IL-4, IL-10 and TNF-α levels in individuals with different Periodontal Disease Degrees and to evaluate and analyze correlations with clinical parameters. In our study, saliva samples will be taken from a total of 80 systemically healthy volunteers, 20 of patients are periodontal healthy, 20 of patients have degree A periodontitis, 20 of patients have degree B periodontitis and 20 of patients have degree C periodontitis, along with the measurement of whole mouth clinical parameters. Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor (SuPAR), Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), E-cadherin, galectin 3, IL-4, IL-10 and TNF-α levels in the samples taken will be subjected to enzyme-related immunoassay ( It will be determined by ELISA). Cytokine levels between different groups will then be interpreted as a result of statistical analysis. Possible significant differences shed light on future studies with Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor (SuPAR), Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), E-cadherin, galectin 3, IL-4, IL-10 and TNF-α. These cytokines may help develop different diagnostic methods or treatment strategies in future periodontal treatments.
Compared with adults, children have higher metabolic needs, and the airway is more likely to collapse. Before tracheal intubation after anesthesia induction, the patient 's spontaneous breathing completely disappears. At this critical stage, the residual oxygen of the lung is consumed, resulting in hypoxemia and atelectasis. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the best oxygenation strategy during intubation. In addition, ultrasound has become a common equipment in the operating room. It has the advantages of portability, repeatability, and no radiation, and can provide strong support for the diagnosis of gastric distension.
The purpose of this study is to examine hypoxic vasodilation and the role of beta-adrenergic receptors in younger premenopausal, perimenopausal, and older postmenopausal women.
This is an observational clinical research study investigating patients with fibrotic interstitial lung disease (fILD), also known as pulmonary fibrosis. It is not known why some patients with fILD clinically deteriorate. This study will investigate whether measuring oxygen levels during sleep or exercise can help identify patients who are at increased risk of clinical deterioration.

The present study will aim to evaluate: 1. The presence of Hypoxia Inducible Factor in vitiligo patient 2. Defect of Autophagy Related Genes in vitiligo patient 3. The cross relation between Autophagy Related Genes and Hypoxia Inducible Factor in the pathogenesis of vitiligo among Egyptian patients in Sohag Governorate
The Lumerah System, developed and manufactured by Raydiant Oximetry, Inc., is a non-invasive fetal pulse oximeter that measures fetal arterial oxygen saturation using safe, non-invasive, transabdominal near-infrared spectroscopy. The Lumerah System is intended as an adjunct to cardiotocography. In this study, women in labor will also be simultaneously monitored with a re-engineered version of the previously approved transvaginal oximeter sensor connected to a Nellcor N-400 fetal oximetry monitor for the purposes of device development. The data obtained from the transabdominal sensor and the transvaginal sensor will be used for research purposes only and will not be used to guide or alter patient management.
The primary aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of ORI and rcSO2 in predicting hypoxia early in obese patients who are sensitive to hypoxia. Our secondary aim is; To determine whether there is a correlation between the changing trend of ORI and rcSO2 in obese patients.
Apneas (breath-holds) are increasingly being tested in human subjects to understand how the human body operates. Apneas decrease heart rate and increase blood pressure. These findings are driving current research into the effects of oxygen concentrations on the heart rate and blood pressure responses to apneas and the effect of breath-hold training on these responses. The interest in apnea research is three-fold: 1. Apneas are a nervous system stressor that can help researchers better understand the fundamental operation of the human body; 2. Elite divers can use findings from research to better their training and performance; and 3. The scientific understanding of apneas may translate to a better understanding of sleep apnea. Despite this interest, little is known about the repeatability (the consistency within a single day) and reproducibility (the consistency between days) in the heart rate and blood pressure responses to apneas. This uncertainty limits the scientific interpretations from previous results. This study aims to determine the repeatability and reproducibility of heart rate and blood pressure responses to apneas. The goals of the study are: 1. To provide greater certainty to previous results; and 2. Inform best practices for future studies. The study requires 20 healthy volunteers (10 females) and will measure heart rate, blood pressure, breathing parameters (expired gas concentrations, breathing volume and rate), and oxygen saturation. During the protocol, participants will complete two maximal voluntary apneas and five test apneas. The test apneas will all be the same length based on the longer of the two maximal voluntary apneas. Before each apnea, participants will also breathe low oxygen concentrations (hypoxia). Hypoxia provides a bigger decrease in heart rate during apneas than room air which makes it easier to see changes in heart rate responses between apneas (i.e., bigger signal-to-noise ratio). Participants will complete two identical test sessions on back-to-back days. The differences in heart rate and blood pressure responses to the five apneas within each session will determine repeatability and the differences between sessions will determine reproducibility. The investigators hypothesize that repeatability will be good and that repeatability within a session will be better than reproducibility between sessions.
