Filter by:In this study, the investigators evaluated the association between various measures of adiposity [BMI and waist circumference (WC)] and clinical outcomes in Asian patients with AF who were prescribed OAC, using a nationwide population based cohort.
This trial was a prospective, open-label, single-center, randomized trial, To observe the clinical efficacy of extracorporeal cardiac shock wave in the treatment of patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and the difference in the level of endothelial progenitor cell-derived miR-140-3p in patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury treated with extracorporeal cardiac shock wave and control group and its relationship with clinical efficacy and prognosis. In order to provide a new therapy for patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
This multicenter retrospectively observational cohort study was conducted on participants with histologically confirmed gastric and colorectal cancer who underwent radical surgery in 11 medical centers in China from August 1, 2015, to June 31, 2018. Baseline clinicopathologic data and nutritional status assessments including Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) score and Patient-generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) rating were collected. Variables will be screened using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model and Cox regression analysis. Internal and external validations will be performed via the receiver operating curve (ROC), the area under the curve (AUC), the concordance index (C-index), calibration plots, decision curve analysis (DCA), and Five folds cross-validation by 200 times.
The investigators propose a prospective, observational study to determine the impact of OSA and associated physiological parameters on clinical outcomes in patients with pulmonary hypertension. The prevalence, phenotypes, and predictors of OSA in the setting of pulmonary hypertension will also be investigated. Adult patients diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension by right heart catheterization are eligible. Recruited patients will undergo an overnight cardiorespiratory study using a Level III portable device before hospital discharge. The cardiorespiratory tracings during sleep will be analyzed and audited by a certified sleep physician. The patients will be divided into two groups based on the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI): OSA (AHI ≥ 5) and non-OSA (AHI<5) groups. Hypoxemic parameters such as time percentage spent with oxygen saturation below 90% and nadir oxygen saturation were all collected. Baseline clinical characteristics, such as the Epworth sleepiness scales, were also obtained. The primary endpoint of this study was clinical worsening (CW), defined as the composite event of a reduction in exercise capacity, worsening in World Health Organization functional class, non-elective hospitalization for pulmonary hypertension, or all-cause mortality. Secondary endpoints include individual outcomes of clinical worsening and all-cause mortality.
HF is an advanced or terminal stage of various heart diseases, with high rehospitalization and mortality rates. In HF patients, undernutrition is not uncommon and represents one of the most significant determinants of poor clinical outcomes. Therefore, nutritional management is of paramount importance for patients with HF.The basic method of nutritional management is to effectively identify the nutritional status of patients with heart failure, especially in elderly patients with heart failure who are not easy to find in the early stage. Limited data are available regarding the association between CONUT score and prognosis in elder patients with HFpEF, despite its easy availability in routine blood chemistry. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of CONUT score and to compare it with other well-established nutritional indices in HFpEF, a common HF phenotype in the elderly population with coronary artery disease. This was a single-center retrospective cohort study which were approved by the Clinical Research Ethics Committee of our hospital (TRECKY2021-185). Written informed consent was obtained from all patients. Participants were accorded with diagnostic criteria of CAD and HFpEF excluding rheumatic heart disease, congenital heart disease, acute myocardial infarction, hemodialysis or hemofiltration, tumour activity, urgent surgery, death during hospitalization, HF of unknown reasons, New York Heart Association(NYHA) class1and data deficiency. Demographic characteristics and medical parameters were collected from the electronic medical record system . All enrolled patients were followed-up in an outpatients setting. The primary endpoint of this study was readmission due to heart failure and all-cause mortality in the first year after hospitalization. To explore the prognostic significance of controlling nutritional status score in elderly with ejection fraction preserved heart failure and compare controlling nutritional status score with other objective nutritional indices.All analyses were performed using Statistical Product Service Solutions(SPSS) version 19.0 .
The purpose is to investigate if different microparticles and markers of hemostasis predict outcome after TIA or ischemic stroke and to study the association between these variables and stroke subtype or etiology.
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) has an incidence of 46% in patients after breast cancer surgery, which seriously affects patients' physiological and psychological function, as well as quality of life. Acute pain is an independent risk factor for persistent pain after surgery. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) provided excellent perioperative analgesia in patients undergoing breast surgery. Dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant of local anesthetics prolongs the duration of peripheral nerve block and decreases the requirements of postoperative analgesia. The investigators hypothesize that, for breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy, ESPB (with a combination of 0.5% ropivacaine 35 ml and dexmedetomidine 1 microgram/kg) can reduce the occurrence of CPSP. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the impact of ESPB with adjuvant dexmedetomidine on the incidence of CPSP in breast cancer patients after mastectomy. We will also observe the impact of ESPB on long-term survival in these patients.
The aim of this study is to assess the clinical value of 5 transcriptomic signatures prognostic of chemotherapeutic sensitivity to improve the Objective Response Rate (ORR) of first-line (L1). Chemotherapy regimen (FOLFIRINOX vs Gem-nabP) will be selected based on transcriptomic signatures applied to the pre-therapeutic liver biopsy of newly diagnosed PDAC patients.
By tracking the short-term and long-term results of HCC patients treated with systemic therapies,the difference of microbiota between responded patients and non-responded patients was analyzed, and the correlation between gut and oral microbiota and short-term and long-term results was explored, so as to improve people's awareness of microbiota and pay attention to its prevention and treatment.
Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage(SICH) is the most lethal and disabling stroke. Timely and accurate assessment of patient prognosis could facilitate clinical decision making and stratified management of patients and is important for improving patient clinical prognosis. However, current studies on the prediction of prognosis of patients with SICH are limited and only include a single variable, with less precise results and inconvenient clinical application, which may lead to delays in effective patient treatment. Our group's previous studies on SICH showed that hematoma heterogeneity and the degree of contrast extravasation within the hematoma are closely related to the clinical outcome of patients, but they are difficult to describe quantitatively based on imaging signs. Based on this, we propose to use radiomics to quantitatively extract hematoma features from NCCT and CTA images, combine them with patients' clinical information and laboratory tests, study their relationship with the prognosis of cerebral hemorrhage, and use artificial intelligence to establish a rapid and accurate prognostic prediction model for patients with SICH, which is of great significance to guide clinical individualized treatment.
