Filter by:This retrospective monocentric study aims at comparing multimodality endoscopic biliary drainage versus percutaneous radiologic biliary drainage in case of perihilar malignant obstruction. Data from patients admitted in the Nancy University Hospital, France, between january 2016 and march 2022 with jaundice and perihilar obstruction will be retrospectively collected.
The study was conducted as a randomized controlled study to determine effect of tube bathing on skin and bilirubin levels in infants undergoing tunnel and LED of phototherapy. The population of the study consisted of term babies with the diagnosis of hyperbilirubinemia in Gaziantep Cengiz Gökçek Maternity and Pediatrics Hospital and Kilis State Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) among November 2019-September 2020. The sample size was composed of a total of 140 babies, which were determined according to Power Analysis and met the case selection criteria. Accordingly, Thirty-five babies were randomly assigned to each group (Tunnel Group = experiment and control; LED Group = experiment and control). The babies in the experimental groups were given a tube bath at 6 and 12 hours after phototherapy started. On the other hand, the babies in the control groups were given routine cares in the units. Data were gathered 'Information and Registration Form', Neonatal Skin Risk Assessment Scale (NSRAS) and Neonatal Skin Condition Score (NSCS).
Patients with potentially resectable pancreatic head cancer and high bilirubin level, were stratified into two equal groups according to the method of biliary drainage: endoscopic stenting or percutaneous drainage.
In Denmark, more than 7500 cholecystectomies are performed every year. Common bile duct gallstones (CBDS) are found in 3.4% to 18% of patients undergoing cholecystectomy. A two-step approach including endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) with stone extraction and papillotomy with subsequent laparoscopic cholecystectomy has become gold standard for treatment of CBDS in Denmark. However, ERC is associated with a high risk of complications and more than 50% of patients require multiple ERCs. Recent meta analyses find that a one-step approach might be superior in terms of safety, CBDS clearance rate, hospital stay, operative time, hospital cost and stone recurrence, but much more data is needed. The preGallstep trial is an investigator-initiated multicentre randomised clinical pilot trial with blinded outcome assessment investigating a novel one-step laparoscopic cholecystectomy with common bile duct exploration and stone extraction versus conventional two-step endoscopic retrograde cholangiography with stone extraction plus a subsequent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for patients with CBDS. After enrolment, the participant will be randomised to one of the two treatment approaches. Adult patients with imaging confirmed CBDS are eligible for inclusion. Potential postoperative complications will be assessed within 90 days following the procedure. The primary outcome is the proportion of serious adverse events (corresponding to a Clavien-Dindo score II or above) requiring re-intervention within 90 days of the initial procedure. This outcome will be used for a future sample size calculation. The sample size estimate, the inclusion rate and the estimated length of subsequent trial will be used to determine the feasibility of a large pragmatic and confirmatory trial. We hypothesize that the one-step approach will significantly reduce the risk of complications and number of treatments needed thereby making a difference to hundreds of people in Denmark each year.
Arteriopathy of the lower limbs (ALL) is defined by a decreased ankle perfusion pressure with a systolic pressure index (SPI) <0.9, and constitutes the most advanced situation in terms of cardiovascular prognosis with in 20 % of cases of lesions associated with the heart and / or coronary heart. The severity of ALL is linked to the risk of a cardiovascular event, hence the need for a hemodynamic evaluation which is mainly based on the measurement of SPI.
Can transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) measurements be utilised to assess rebound hyperbilirubinaemia following phototherapy in neonates?
This study was planned to examine the effect of telephone support for breastfeeding follow-up on physiological jaundice, exclusive breastfeeding in the first six months, infantile colic, maternal breastfeeding self-efficacy, and breastfeeding success.
To investigate the influence of antibiotics on the incidence of biliary tract infections after PTCD for malignant obstructive jaundice.
Data accumulated from medical record collected from January 2008 until December 2018
Breast milk jaundice (BMJ) is the main cause of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Excessive serum unconjugated bilirubin level will not only cause the interruption or early termination of breastfeeding, but also cause kernicterus. Which can cause long-term dysfunction in infants. But for a long time, BMJ diagnosis has relied on clinical exclusive methods, lack of objective and reliable laboratory indicators. Which leads to misdiag. This project is a single-center, prospective nested case-control study. It is planned to establish a neonatal BMJ cohort. According to the admission criteria, 100 cases of early-onset BMJ and late-onset BMJ will be completed, and 100 healthy controls collected during the same period. , Compare the detection results of fecal miRNA and intestinal flora of the two groups of BMJ children and healthy controls, draw the ROC curve of the joint diagnosis, conduct research on the combined diagnostic value of fecal miRNA and intestinal flora analysis, and try to find the feasibility and practical value of diagnostic markers for feces in infants with BMJ.
