Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if surgical angiogenesis performed in talar avascular necrosis by free microvascular bone grafts from the femoral condyle is a superior technique compared to core decompression and nonvascularized osseous autografts.
The purpose of this study is to determine if surgical angiogenesis performed in talar avascular necrosis by free microvascular bone grafts from the medial femoral condyle is a superior technique compared to core decompression and nonvascularized osseous autografts.
This long-term outcomes study is designed to collect safety and efficacy data on designated, commercially available, hip arthroplasty products.
This prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical trial will evaluate the effect and security of steroids therapy for patients of IgA nephropathy with active pathological changes,including crescents,necrosis and microthrombus.
Cerebral radiation necrosis (CRN) is a well-documented late complication of radiation therapy for cancers, and may have a devastating effect on the patient's quality of life (QOL). However,CRN was once regarded as a progressive and irreversible disease, no standard therapy has been suggested for CRN. In our clinical practice, we have used monosialotetrahexosylganglioside (GM1)to treat CRN, and found that GM1 can successfully reverse CRN. So we carried out this prospective study to test the efficacy of GM1 for CRN.
In the FARAMIS study, we aim to investigate the longitudinal course of intestinal plasma fatty acid binding protein (i-FABP) in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) undergoing primary percutaneous angiographic intervention. The investigators postulate that patients with fully re-established intestinal blood flow and vital intestines will display a significant drop of plasmatic i-FABP within 24 hours, while patients requiring subsequent intestinal resection due to irreversible bowel necrosis will not. If true, patients requiring laparotomy and bowel resection could be identified and patients in whom angiographic intervention led to successful cure of disease would not be exposed to potentially perilous surgery.
Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) often require blood pressure support of vasoactive drugs such as amines. Finger necrosis (so called "blue toe syndrome") is a well documented phenomena with incidence reaching as high as 60% in patients receiving vasopressin. Botulinum toxin is a known muscle relaxant used for a variety of medical application. Recently, several reports have demonstrated its effect in vasospastic disorders. It has also been in mice that when administered locally it has a local vasodilatory effect. The goal of this experiment is to compare the effect of Botulinum Toxin administered locally on amine induced finger necrosis.
This randomized phase III trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy works in treating young patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia that is likely to come back or spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) and giving the drugs in different doses and in different combinations may kill more cancer cells.
Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) is a debilitating disease that commonly leads to destruction of the hip joint in patients at middle age of life and often requires surgical intervention. Previously, we have identified the collagen type II, alpha 1 (COL2A1) gene as the ANFH disease gene. In this grant proposal, we will establish cell ine and animal models to understand the pathophysiology of ANFH, and extend our ongoing study for identifying genes responsible for non-familiar ANFH by looking into other interacting molecules of the pathway.
