Filter by:Background: Revisional bariatric surgery (RBS) represents a further solution for patients who experience an inadequate response following initial bariatric surgery or significant weight regain following an initial satisfactory response. Studies including the follow-up of patients with complications after RBS are still lacking. Aim: to analyze the trend, mortality, and complications at 30 days after RBS in Italy. Secondary aim: 30-day readmission rate, reoperations for any reason related to bariatric surgery. Design: longitudinal, prospective, multicenter study. Time interval: 10 months October 2021 - July 2022). Setting: 11 high-volume bariatric centers of the Italian National Health Service (SSN), university hospitals, hospitals, accredited private centers. Methods: All patients undergoing RBS from 01.11.2021 through 31.04.2022 will be enrolled in a prospective, online database, registering indications, technique, mortality, intraoperative and perioperative complications, readmission for any reason. All participating centers follow the same preoperative work-up protocol, indications, informed consent, and postoperative follow-up, including scheduled telephone and outpatient visits after 7, 15 and 30 postoperative days. Inclusion criteria: revisional procedures; no concomitant procedure, but hiatal hernia repair; age >18<60 years; compensated comorbidities; informed consent including COVID-19 addendum; adherence to specific admission, in-hospital and follow-up protocols. Patients undergone RBS during 2016-2020 will be considered a control group. The study will not involve any modification of the usual protocols. Statistical analyze: to make qualitative quantitative comparison regarding clinical and anthropometric factors between the two study groups (2021-22; 2016-20), the z-test for two proportions and t-test (two-tailed) will be used, respectively. The significance is fixed at 0.05 and all analyzes will be performed with the SPSS v.27 software. Expected results: enroll about 500 patients to obtain information on the safety of RBS and the current trends in Italy.
Fucoidans are fucose-rich sulfated carbohydrates found in brown marine algae and have been shown to play a role in immune modulation as well as inflammation. In fact, fucoidans have been shown to inhibit neutrophil infiltration and attenuate levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. More research is warranted to determine the effects of supplementation with fucoidans to reduce inflammation following high-intensity exercise. Therefore, this double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over design study will be conducted to further understand these effects.
The treatment plan for patients requiring mechanical ventilator support is to provide the minimal amount of analgesics and sedatives necessary for the patient to tolerate the ventilator as lower amounts of these drugs has been shown to improve patient outcomes. Patients in this critical state experience confusion, restlessness, and agitation, which sometimes leads to an unplanned removal of a patient's line or medical device. The current standard of care for limiting the movement of mechanically ventilated patients' in the critical care units in hospitals is the use of physical wrist restraints. Researchers demonstrated that wrist restraints are ineffective in preventing the removal of invasive and adjunct devices and have many negative physical, psychological, physiological, and emotional consequences for the patient and their family. In this proposed research, we will use the innovative medical device called the HEALiX, a newly developed device worn on the arms of mechanically ventilated patients that allows freedom of movement and protects from removing adjunct mechanical ventilation devices and invasive monitoring equipment. This randomized controlled trial will investigate the HEALiX device's effectiveness in preventing the removal of invasive monitoring devices (such as endotracheal tubes, central lines, feeding tubes, etc.) compared with the current standard of care, wrist restraints.
Sepsis is a life-threatening clinical syndrome and a leading cause of neonatal deaths worldwide. The burden of neonatal sepsis and severe infection (SI) is particularly high in areas of South Asia and other resource-limited settings. The goal of the Synbiotics for the Early Prevention of Severe Infections in Infants (SEPSIS) phase II L. plantarum trial is to generate knowledge on the safety, tolerability and effects on the microbiome of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, with or without fructooligosaccharide, in infants (birth to 60 days of age) in Dhaka, Bangladesh. All data generated will support the design and implementation of a phase III trial to test the efficacy of the probiotic/synbiotic or other interventions for the prevention of SI, promotion of optimal growth and development, and effects on other health outcomes in early infancy.

This is a Phase 1, Multi-center, Non-randomized, Open-label, Dose-escalation, and Dose Expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Anti-tumor Activity of IPG7236 Administered Orally as a Single Agent in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors. The study will include a dose escalation phase (Part 1) and a dose expansion phase (Part 2). Each part will consist of a screening period of up to 28 days, a treatment period, an end of treatment visit and a safety follow-up of approximately 30 days after the last dose. IPG7236 will be given on an empty stomach (either one hour before or two hours after a meal) twice daily (approximately every 12 hours) in continuous 28-day cycles.
Introduction: GLP-1 receptor agonists (aGLP1) act increasing pancreatic insulin secretion in response to the glucose, they reduce glucagon secretion and reduce appetite by acting in the central level. Several aGLP1 were approved through different clinical trials where they showed efficacy in the glycemic control and reduction in cardiovascular events. They also showed weight loss in different clinical trials with patients with diabetes mellitus 2 (DM2) and also in specific clinical trial where the weight loss was the primary endpoint (STEP study). Objective: The objective is to evaluate and compare the weight loss in patients with DM2 treated with the different aGLP1 for the first time. Secondary endpoints are HbA1c reduction, changes in quality of life and physical activity and the safety of these drugs. Design: It is a postauthorization, multicenter, non-randomized and prospective study. Patients that will start treatment for the first time with aGLP1 will be recruited in 10 primary care centers in SERGAS Galician Hospitals for a period of 6 months and 44 weeks of follow-up. The primary endpoint will be to evaluate the wight loss with the different aGLP1 and the secondary endpoint will be HbA1c reduction, changes in the quality of life through the EuroQol-5D and changes physical activity through the SF-12 questionnaire, and also the safety of these drugs. The sample size will be of 360 patients. Statistical analysis: Previous studies showed efficacy in weight loss with semaglutide about (3,6-4,9 kg), while with other aGLP1 the weight loss was smaller , about (0,86-2,96 kg). Based in these data and with a 5% of significance level, a weight loss average in the aGLP1 group of 2,5 kg, average in semaglutide group of 4,2 kg, and combination deviation of 3,0kg, including 360 subjects we will have a statistical power above 90% to detect differences through T-test for independent samples. The justification of this simple size was performed with the statistical software SPSS 3.0 Conclusions: The SEVERAL study will try to provide information about weight loss efficacy, changes in quality of life, physical activity and safety of the aGLP1in patients with DM2 that start treatment with these drugs in the real life (Real-World Evidence)
