Filter by:Nitrous oxide has become an increasingly popular recreational drug amongst young people, particularly at festivals, nightclubs and parties. Considering the drug is not illegal to possess, has low cost in the form of 'whippets' and can be easily purchased online, it has become the second most commonly used recreational drug amongst people aged 16-24 in the UK. However, nitrous oxide is known to irreversibly inactivate the functioning of vitamin B12, a vitamin required for the maintenance and proper functioning of nerves in the spinal cord. Neurological symptoms in this population have been reported in around 3.4% of nitrous oxide users, although the true incidence is expected to be higher as the cases being reported by UK hospitals continues to rise. Patients may present with adverse neurological symptoms like tingling, weakness, coordination and mobility problems. Currently, studies reviewing the functional recovery of these patients have been limited by a retrospective study design, short follow up duration and being limited to small cohort sizes. This is in part linked to patient non-compliance and non-attendance at follow-up appointments. The investigators will therefore prospectively recruit all patients presenting with these symptoms and continue to collect data relating to their neurological recovery for 12 months. Data collection will be remote to ensure it is of low burden to the participants. This will allow the investigating team and others to fully appraise the severity of these toxic neuropathies and understand how best to manage their follow up.
This is a placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess whether Guanfacine Extended Release (GXR) reduces aggression and self injurious behavior in individuals with Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS). In addition, the study will establish the safety of GXR with a specific focus on metabolic effects.
In previous studies, we know methylene blue (MB) stains nerves, and oxidized MB has near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence for fluorescent observation. In this trial we using MB on human skin and combining MB and third-harmonic generation imaging (THG) to label cutaneous nerve fibers.
The objective of this project is to determine the concordance between the subjective and objective evaluation of cognitive functions in affective patients in partial remission through scales and cognitive tests that would be easily implemented in the different mental health care devices. This is a cross-sectional case-control study of non-probabilistic sampling, which will include a group of patients diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and Bipolar Disorder and a group of healthy controls from the same population and matched by age, gender and years of education with the group of patients. Patients will be recruited from the psychiatric service of the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau who meet the inclusion criteria, and they will undergo a blood draw, a clinical assessment, a complete neuropsychological examination together with scales of subjective perception of cognitive deficit, a measure of cognitive reserve and an evaluation of psychosocial functionality. In addition, the same evaluation will be made to a group of healthy subjects.The total sample will be 120
This multicenter observational study will explore the risk factors of early neurological deterioration(END) in patients with primary and to investigate the association between END and outcome.
The NUMITOR study is an analytical observational study with an multicenter ambisective (retrospective and prospective) cohort design.
The Rett Syndrome Registry is a longitudinal observational study of individuals with MECP2 mutations and a diagnosis of Rett syndrome. Designed together with the IRSF Rett Syndrome Center of Excellence Network medical directors, this study collects data on the signs and symptoms of Rett syndrome as reported by the Rett syndrome experts and by the caregivers of individuals with Rett syndrome. This study will be used to develop consensus based guidelines for the care of your loved ones with Rett syndrome and to facilitate the development of better clinical trials and other aspects of the drug development path for Rett syndrome.
This is a prospective study that would investigate the transcranial doppler (TCD) changes during the living donor liver transplantation and the association between the TCD changes and the post-transplant neurological complications.
In high-volume trauma centers, multi-slice CT scanners have become the routine imaging modality for screening trauma patients due to their speed and accuracy. In trauma patients with no known neurologic deficits, diagnostic CT is often obtained though it remains unclear whether this affects management of the patient [1]. With the growing cost of health care, a careful look at the benefit and cost of CT is needed to determine how to best utilize this modality in the evaluation of trauma patients. HYPOTHESIS: In trauma patients with absence of neurologic defects, the addition of comprehensive CT does not change overall clinical management.
The SafeBoosC-III 2 year follow up study will follow up on all patients randomised in the SafeBoosC-III clinical trial (NCT03770741). The investigators will collect data when the patients are two years of corrected age from routine standardised follow up assessments, parental questionnaires as well as informal assessments. The study will commence in September 2021, and will expect to include all 72 sites across 18 countries, which take part of the SafeBoosC-III clinical trial.
