Filter by:The objective of the DISTALS Study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Tigertriever 13 Revascularization Device in restoring blood flow in the neurovasculature by removing thrombus in patients presenting within 24 hours of onset with an ischemic stroke with disabling neurological deficits due to a primary distal vessel occlusion (DVO), as compared to medical management.
Comparison of high-resolution optical coherence tomography (High-Res-OCT) to conventional imaging modalities for the diagnosis of eye diseases
The aim of study is to compare the evaluation of dark halo area of macular neovascularization (MNV) between indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in order to identify OCTA as effective and useful biomarker in MNV
Patients who respond to anti-VEGF therapy but with refractory retinal and choroidal neovascularization diseases including neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), diabetic macular edema (DME), and retinal vein occlusion-Macular edema (RVO-ME).
The researchers investigate the effect of a treatment with selective photothermolysis using a 595 nm pulsed dye laser on the blood vessel density and the nerve fibre density of a psoriatic lesion. By comparing tissue samples collected before and after two treatments, the researchers determine the relative effect of laser therapy on the (hyper)innervation of psoriatic skin.
To suggest a novel classification of choroidal neovascular membrane based on optical coherence tomography angiography and to correlate morphological characteristics based on optical coherence tomography with clinical criteria of disease activity.
KDR2-2, as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has a strong inhibitory effect on VEGFR2 and a moderate inhibitory effect on PDGFR-β. It can be used for the treatment of corneal neovascularization. The main purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of KDR2-2 suspension eye drops in the treatment of corneal neovascularization. This study is a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled clinical study. A total of 60 patients with corneal neovascularization were enrolled in this study, and they were randomly divided into 4 groups, including the control group, the KDR2-2 low-concentration (4mg/ml) group, the medium-concentration (10mg/ml) group, and the high-concentration (20mg/ml) group, with 15 subjects in each group. The control group applied 0.1% fluorometholone eye drops, and the test groups applied KDR2-2 suspension eye drops with 0.1% fluorometholone eye drops. Patients applied KDR2-2 eye drops four times daily for 6 weeks and were followed up to 10 weeks. The follow-up time points were baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks after medication, and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal. Relevant ophthalmological examinations (including visual acuity, intraocular pressure, slit lamp microscopy, central corneal thickness measurement, corneal fluorescein staining assessment, corneal sensitivity measurement, corneal confocal microscope examination, and anterior segment and fundus photography) are performed at each time. And the ocular tolerability score and adverse events of each patient were recorded. By comparative analysis, the efficacy and safety of KDR2-2 eye drops in the treatment of corneal neovascularization were evaluated.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravitreal recombinant humanized anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody in patients with visual impairment due to pmCNV
35 participants will be recruited from a list of patients who are scheduled, as part of their routine NHS care, to have a clinically-indicated outpatient hysteroscopy for assessment of their uterine cavity. The participants will be women from the age of 18 up to the age of 40 who are undergoing hysteroscopy investigation. All participants included in the study require at least one ultrasound scan, within the preceding 5 years, demonstrating the presence of a normal uterine cavity devoid of uterine anomalies such as a septate uterus or intrauterine fibroids (which may affect endometrial blood flow measurements). It is usual for a patients to have an ultrasound assessment prior to hysteroscopy therefore we do not anticipate this requirement limiting the number of eligible participants available.
Chronic kidney failure in the single remaining kidney is one of the dreaded complications of nephrectomy in patients operated on for cancer-related reasons (1). Indeed, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with major cardiovascular morbidity and mortality (2). To date, there are few non-invasive methods available to predict the onset and progression of CKD in patients for whom nephrectomy is indicated. Preoperative creatinine and glomerular filtration rate are poor predictors of the subsequent risk of single kidney failure (1). Early predictive markers could help anticipate the management of CKD in patients for whom progression to end-stage renal disease is predictable. Furthermore, such markers could be used as a decision-making aid to specify the type of nephrectomy to be preferred (total versus partial nephrectomy). The state of microcirculation, particularly retinal, is correlated with the progression of certain conditions such as diabetic nephropathy (3-5). A new technique for evaluating retinal microcirculation called OCT-A (an imaging technique in ophthalmology allowing a precise non-invasive study of the retinal microvascular network) has recently been used by our team to highlight an association between retinal vascularisation and the level of cardiovascular risk in a population of coronary patients without diabetes (6). We hypothesize that the observation of retinal vascular abnormalities could reflect changes in kidney structure that could underlie chronic renal failure. The aim of this work is thus to evaluate whether the presence of abnormalities in the retinal microvascularisation is 1) predictive of the deterioration in renal function one year after nephrectomy for cancer-related reasons and 2) correlated with renal histological abnormalities.
