Filter by:Liver transplantation in children is highly successful with >80% having 20 years survival. Most pediatric liver diseases are potentially curable with liver transplantation and it is important to establish whether children who have undergone successful transplantation can expect a normal life expectancy or whether there will be a gradual decline in liver function and eventual graft loss. The most common reasons in late graft loss in children are unexplained graft inflammation ("idiopathic" post-transplant hepatitis) and graft fibrosis. PRO-C3, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs-generated neo-epitope marker of type III collagen formation, has been proved to be a marker of fibrosis in patients with NAFLD. The aim of this study is to explore the role of Fibrosis Panel(PRO-C3, PIIINP, TIMP-1, HA) in children received liver transplantation.
To study of the evolution of general movements in children, to develop criteria for early diagnosis of neurological disorders to reduce early neurological disability. It is observational longitudinal analytical cohort study.
This study is being done to see how we can prevent problems caused by movement during the MRI scan. Different ways of doing the scan (techniques) will be tested to see if they are practical and can prevent problems related to motion. For example, changes in the timing of the magnetic field and the radio waves will be examined, and at changes in the way a computer is used to process the images. The new techniques will be compared with the techniques that are usually used.
The incidence of diabetes in children, which is constantly increasing worldwide is estimated in mainland France at about 15/100 000 per year with a wide disparity between countries and a north gradient South. In Reunion island, about 30 children a year seem to reveal diabetes before the age of 18 years but no precise data has ever been published on this subject. Indeed, while type 1 diabetes (insulin-dependent autoimmune) represents historically the majority of cases of diabetes revealed at pediatric age (about 90%), since a little more than 10 years other types of diabetes seem emerge at pediatric age. This is particularly the case of type 2 diabetes in connection with the global epidemic of obesity. The purpose of the investigator's study is the exhaustive prospective collection of all cases of diabetes revealed before the age of 18 in the Reunion region over a period of 5 years.
There is strong evidence that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with exposure is the preferred treatment for youth with anxiety disorders, but outpatient services that provide this type of treatment are limited. Even for those who do have access to anxiety-specific treatment, a traditional outpatient model of treatment delivery may not be suitable. Among the numerous logistical barriers to treatment access and response is the inability to generalize treatment tools to settings outside of the office. Patient-centered (home-based or telehealth; patient-centered telehealth closed as of 5/1/21) treatment models that target symptoms in the context in which they occur could be more effective, efficient, and accessible for families. The present study aims to compare the efficacy, efficiency, and feasibility of patient centered home-based CBT and patient centered telehealth CBT with a traditional office-based model of care. The question proposed, including proposed outcomes, have been generated and developed by a group of hospital, payer, patient and family stakeholders who will also contribute to the iterative process of protocol revision. The investigators anticipate 379 anxious youth to be randomized to receive outpatient treatment using telehealth (patient-centered telehealth closed as of 5/1/21), home-based services, or treatment as usual using a traditional outpatient model. Results of this study are expected to provide evidence for the efficacy and efficiency of patient-centered treatment, as well as increase treatment access and family engagement in the treatment process.
The aim of this study is to validate and develop a new diagnostic and prognostic approach for assessment of liver function in children and adolescents with acute liver failure and chronic liver insufficiency. A carefully selected panel of functional and genomic tests along with diagnostic imaging and analysis of the microbiota will be performed in children and adolescents with acute liver failure and chronic liver insufficiency at Rigshospitalet. The tests will be performed in a serial manner in order to detect changes in outcomes. The study is an unblinded descriptive study, and approximately 20 patients with acute liver failure and 100 patients with chronic liver disease will be included in the project. This study will be the first of it's kind worldwide. The investigators expect the study to improve future diagnostic and prognostic accuracy and help the clinicians in identifying those patients in which the liver will regenerate itself, from those patients in which a liver transplantation will be lifesaving. Furthermore this study aims to help the clinicians in defining the optimal time for pediatric liver transplant in a narrow window of opportunity.
Emergence agitation after sevoflurane anesthesia is still a problem needed to be solved.The aim of the study is to delineate the effect of caudal magnesium sulfate in children undergoing lower abdominal surgery to prevent postoperative emergence agitation.
