Filter by:The goal of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of stenting for revascularization treatment of chronic middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion in patients with chronic MCA occlusion. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Whether stenting treatment can improve blood flow restoration in chronic MCA occlusion. 2. If stenting can reduce the rates of reocclusion. 3. How stenting affects the recovery of neurological functions in these patients. Researchers will compare the stenting group, which received stenting revascularization in addition to aspirin treatment, to the control group, which received only aspirin treatment to see if stenting treatment provides superior outcomes in terms of neurological function improvement and safety profile. Participants will: 1. Undergo full cerebral angiography to identify the occlusion site. 2. All participants will be monitored for post-procedure complications and neurological function using the Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) before and after treatment. 3. Participants will be followed up for three months post-treatment to assess the long-term efficacy and safety of the stenting procedure.
This is a multi-center, open-label, Phase 0 substudy designed to evaluate the ability of pembrolizumab, alone and in combination with MK-0482 or MK-4830, to elicit pharmacodynamic changes suggestive of antitumor immune activation within the native tumor microenvironment (TME) following intratumoral microdosing via the CIVO device in patients with surface accessible Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) or Soft Tissue Sarcoma (STS) lesion(s) who are scheduled for tumor and/or regional node dissection as part of their standard treatment.
The purpose is to study superior efficacy of combination of Natamycin and Lactulose (Natamycin 100 mg + Lactulose 300 mg vaginal suppositories) compared to Pimafucin (Natamycin 100 mg vaginal suppositories), or Lactulose 300 mg vaginal suppositories. The second objective of the study was to investigate the safety of the combination suppositories in the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis in non-pregnant adult females.
Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors(EGFRIs) have been applied in several common malignancies including advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Paronychia is one of the most common cutaneous side effects, characterized by inflamed granulation tissue around the nails leading to pain and reduced quality of life. Despite available conventional therapies such as topical beta-blockers or chemical cauterization, some patients still do not respond well. Our previous pilot study suggested that adding Kinesiology tape wrapping to the conventional treatment may effectively improve pain and granulomas in patients with treatment-resistant EGFRI-related paronychia, with good safety. This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of using Kinesiology tape wrapping as an adjunct to conventional therapy for patients with EGFRI-related paronychia.
Three-dimensional Assessment of Root Resorption following treatment with clear aligners using Cone Beam Computed Tomography Design: A randomized, controlled, crossover, double-blind clinical study including twenty six adult , aged 18-25 years old.
This is a prospective study to investigate the biomarkers in predicting treatment outcome and toxicity in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors with or without stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).
The goal of this multicenter, observational, retrospective is to evaluate the standards of use of thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RA) in adult patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), with a particular interest on phase of ITP (defined according to time when diagnosis of ITP is established in the medical records: newly diagnosed, 0-3 months; persistent, 3-12 months, and chronic, > 12 months), tolerability, safety, posology and remissions, outside controlled clinical trials. Secondary Objectives: To analyze the patient characteristics that could affect the choice of thrombopoietin receptor agonist for the treatment of ITP, considering specific clinical aspects (such as previous thromboembolic disease, bleeding, platelet count, surgical procedures, etc.). To evaluate the degree of adherence to international guidelines related to the use of thrombopoietin receptor agonists in regular clinical practice. Data will be collected through a retrospective chart review of patients with ITP who started TPO-RA treatment between January 2014 and December 2018.
Objective: This study was designed to evaluate the accuracy of Pleth Variability Index (PVI), Perfusion Index (PI) and Regional Oxygen Saturation (rSO2) in both ventilation modes in patients undergoing septorhinoplasty operation under general anaesthesia. Materials and Methods: After anaesthesia induction, ventilation was provided with volume control for 20 minutes. Heart Rate (HR), PI, PVI, Oxygen Saturation (SpO2), Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) and rSO2 values were recorded every 5 minutes. At the 20th minute of the surgical procedure, the ventilation mode was set as the pressure-controlled mode. After switching to pressure-controlled mode, HR, PI, PVI, SpO2, NIBP and rSO2 values were recorded every 5 minutes for 20 minutes.
A retrospective cohort study, conducted nationwide（China） and across multiple centers, aimed to compare the surgical quality and short-term outcomes of R-NOSES （robotic natural orifice specimen extraction surgery）with R-TSES （robotic transabdominal specimen extraction surgery） for early-stage rectal cancer.
Correcting the skeletal class II using functional appliances, whether removable or fixed, always leads to skeletal and alveolar effects. However, some of these effects are unfavorable, the most significant being the loss of support in the lower dental arch. This loss of support leads to an uncontrolled labial inclination of the lower incisors and mesial movement of the lower; these dentoalveolar effects impact the degree of skeletal correction that can be achieved. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the skeletal and dentoalveolar effects following the use of a mini-implant-supported Twin-Block appliance compared to the conventional Twin-Block.
