Filter by:Neonatal jaundice has significant importance in neonatal morbidity and mortality world-wide. Though phototherapy has a relentless use in neonatal jaundice, its cumbersome side effects and the physical separation of baby from the mother eventually result as increase in days of hospitalization adding to the mental anguish of the parents. This study is conducted to observe the reduction of serum bilirubin level in neonates treated with Fenofibrate as an adjuvant to phototherapy in treatment of exaggerated physiological hyperbilirubinemia. After informed consent, single dose of Fenofibrate will be given to the group A (intervention group) and Group B (non-intervention) will only be given phototherapy. Then every 24-hourly sample for serum bilirubin will be sent for lab analysis, for 3 days. A randomized control trial is conducted and later on, the data will be analyzed in the SPSS 26. Quantitative variables like age will be presented as mean ± SD. Qualitative variables like gender will be presented as percentage and frequency. Comparison of two groups intervention group and non-intervention group, apply independent sample t-test. P value < 0.05 will be taken as significant. Limitation of the proposed study includes limited sample size, study population limited to only one hospital and no follow-up in plan. If the role of Fenofibrate is established in the management of exaggerated physiological hyperbilirubinemia in newborns, it will be beneficial to minimize the risk of the complications, rapid regression of hyperbilirubinemia & shortening the length of hospital stay.
Evaluate LINFU® in patients who exhibit signs or symptoms (i.e. jaundice, abdominal pain, weight loss, nausea and vomiting etc.) suggestive of pancreatic cancer (PDAC) or have evidence of imaging studies suggestive of PDAC.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the value of transcutaneous bilirubin devices versus serum bilirubin in jaundiced neonates
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of EUS-BD compared with ERCP-BD in low biliary obstruction caused by periampullary cancer, pancreatic cancer or low bile duct cancer. This is a single center, prospective, randomized-controlled study. The primary endpoint of this study is stent patency time, and secondary endpoints include technical success rate, clinical success rate, operation time, operation related complications rate, reintervention rate, stent patency rate at 6 months, and 1-year postoperative survival rate.
The incidence of pancreato-biliary disorders ,including malignancy, is increasing in elderly patients. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a well-known therapeutic tool for these pancreato-biliary disorders. In general, old age is defined as being more than 65 years of age by the World Health Organization. The increase in the domestic aged population is related to the increasing demand for therapeutic ERCP in elderly patients with pancreato-biliary disorders. Common bile duct stones and cancer account for70 % of all jaundice cases in patients over the age of 65 years . This is related to increasing prevalences of cholelithiasis, choledocholithiasis, and malignancy with advancing age . Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) represents the gold standard technique for the treatment of biliary or pancreatic tract pathology, and it could be often performed with therapeutic intent by realizing procedures such as insertion of bile duct stents and/or endoscopic sphincterotomy. However, evidence about its safety in the elderly is still controversial.
This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled parallel group superiority clinical trial among 94 pregnant women (47 in each group) to investigate the effect of maternal perinatal probiotic supplementation on neonatal jaundice, breast milk microbiome, maternal stool, and infant fecal microbiome. Vivomixx®-probiotic product will be used as treatment and placebo as a control.
Describe demographic and clinical data of neonates & childern with (PNNJ) admitted to neonatology , hepatology & hematology units of Assiut university children hospital(AUCH). Describe the distribution of etiologies of (PNNG) in neonates & children at AUCH. Assess the outcome of (PNNJ) in neonates & childern admitted to AUCH .
This study will be conducted as a relational descriptive study to determine the health literacy level of parents with infants between 0-28 days of age regarding neonatal jaundice. The secondary aim of the study is to examine whether the health literacy levels of the parents differ with parent and infant descriptive characteristics and their knowledge about neonatal jaundice. In this study, answers to the following questions were sought. 1. What is the level of knowledge about neonatal jaundice among parents with infants between 0-28 days? 2. What is the level of health literacy of parents with infants between 0-28 days of age and is there a relationship between parent, infant identifying characteristics and knowledge about neonatal jaundice?
The goal of this retrospective observational study is to [learn about the correlation between hyperbilirubinemia and retinopathy of prematurity in preterm infants. The main question it aims to answer are: • To evaluate the possible effect of neonatal jaundice linked to the presumed protective antioxidant action of bilirubin on the development of ROP, compared to a control group which, although presenting ROP, did not develop jaundice.
In the current work, we aim to perform a prospective study that will investigate the relationship between maternal obesity (BMI >30 kg/m2) and morbid obesity (BMI >35 kg/m2) with a late GDM diagnosis (>32 weeks), with an emphasis on obstetric and neonatal outcomes.
