Filter by:This study aims to determine the clinical effectiveness of multi-dimensional signatures in predicting response and prognosis of lung cancer patients. The study is a multi-center perspective research of treatment planning for patients with lung cancer. To characterize clinical effectiveness, the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) impacts of multi-dimensional signatures will be estimated.
Among the patients diagnosed as acute myocardial infarction by coronary angiography, 5%-25% of the patients did not find coronary artery obstructive lesions. These patients do not need PCI. The discovery and verification of clinical protocols for accurate identification of myocardial infarction in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease（MINOCA）is a major issue that needs to be addressed.Novel biomarkers like grow stimulation expressed gene 2（ST2）can indicate the degree of coronary artery obstruction, copeptin is a biomarker of cardiac emergency state. No clinical studies have been conducted to evaluate whether the novel biomarkers combination regimen can diagnose or exclude MINOCA. Our research aims to establish and validate a model for the recognition of MINOCA based on novel biomarkers (ST2, copeptin) and to evaluate the prognostic value of novel biomarkers among patients with acute chest pain.
The aims of this study are to 1. Evaluate the right heart structure and function in T2DM and Prediabetes patients by speckle tracking echocardiography, and to further investigate the influence of left heart on right heart structure and function in T2DM and Prediabetes patients. 2. To explore the prognostic value of right ventricular function in T2DM patients.
Correlation between Myocardial Deformation and Coronary Tortuosity and Analysis of Genetic Factors Among Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients
There is no clear consensus on the use of pneumonia severity index (PSI) developed for community-acquired pneumonia in hospital-acquired pneumonia cases. In another aspect, PSI is a relatively difficult scoring system that includes many parameters. This study evaluated whether lactate clearance could be used as a mortality marker instead of PSI in hospital-acquired pneumonia. As a result, lactate clearance was lower in the mortal group and when the diagnostic statistics were evaluated, it was seen that the sensitivity and specificity rates were significantly higher. In conclusion, lactate clearance has been evaluated as a strong predictor of mortality in hospital-acquired pneumonia.
This study aims to evaluate the clinical course of patients diagnosed with pleural effusion and determine various clinical factors and biomarkers associated that can predict the diagnosis and clinical outcome and prognosis of patients with pleural effusion due to specific causes.
A homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) scoring model based on loss of heterozygosity (LOH) is little explored in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients. This study would recruit 200 Chinese EOC patients with known BRCA1/2 mutation status and resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy. A LOH-HRD model is to be constructed based on the genetic testing in these patients. The mutated genes, HRD score model and their relationship with the prognosis, would provide a full description of for the Chinese EOC patients, and a potential explanation of platinum-resistance in such population.
The association between homologous recombination (HR) gene mutations and homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) status in Chinese epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients is little known. This study would recruit 400 Chinese EOC patients with known targeted gene mutations via a multi-panel testing of 27 genes, including BRCA1/BRCA2. All patients accept evaluation of HRD model, which is based on the loss of heterozygosity (LOH), telomere allele imbalance (TAI) and large-scale state transitions (LST). The mutated genes, HRD score model and their relationship with the prognosis, would provide a full description of for the Chinese EOC patients, and a potential explanation of platinum-resistance in such population.
Since the 2000s, many prognostic scores were developed to predict traumatic haemorrhage. Most of these studies were retrospectives based on registers. Due to missing data on death due to bleeding, these studies chose to predict the massive transfusion risk as a surrogate of haemorrhagic death. These scores include clinical parameters (vital signs), laboratory values (Haemoglobin, lactate, Base excess) and/or imaging (CT or ultrasound) values. The scores showing best performance are the Trauma Associated Severe Haemorrhage (TASH) score, developed and validated on the German register (DGU-Register) and the ABC score developed and validated in the United States of America. However, the majority of these scores cannot be applied at the trauma scene due to the unavailability of laboratory and imaging values. Therefore, their clinical utility remains unclear. To overcome the need for diagnostic tests, authors have developed and recently validated a clinical prognostic score in identifying trauma patients with, or at risk of, significant haemorrhage based on predicted probabilities of death due to bleeding: BATT score. This score was developed from an international cohort using data from 271 Trauma Centres in 41 countries on 5 continents and uses first clinical parameters at initial assessment. The BATT score predicts death due to bleeding and has been validated on a large population in England and Wales. It could also predict massive transfusion, as a surrogate of haemorrhagic death, earlier at the trauma scene. Its feasibility and external validation would make its clinical utility superior to other scores while identifying a greater number of patients requiring early management. Our study is an external validation of pre-existing prognostic scores of traumatic haemorrhages (TASH , ABC and BATT score) at different times of care (Scene of Injury, admission at the trauma room) in order to assess their overall performance, discrimination and calibration in the prediction of massive transfusion, and haemorrhagic death. The objective of the study is to assess a comparison of score performances (Overall performance, discrimination and calibration). Due to the study population (STR), which is partly integrated into the German DGU-Register, the investigators expect good transportability of the TASH score to the Swiss Trauma Registry in terms of overall performance, discrimination and calibration. The ABC score should show lowers results in terms of discrimination due to its validation on small cohorts exclusively in North America. The new BATT score predicting death due to bleeding has been validated on a large English cohort of more than 100,000 patients. It identifies all patients with haemorrhage and not only patients who have received a massive transfusion subject to survival bias. In this context, the BATT score provides good discrimination with only simple physiological variables available at the trauma scene. In case of its external validation on the STR as part of our study, its feasibility would make its clinical utility superior to other pre-existing scores, while identifying a greater number of patients requiring early management. Its application would activate a massive transfusion plan directly at the trauma scene and save precious time.
