Filter by:The aim of this study is to determine the effects of n-3 PUFAs on weight, physical funktion and quality of life in patients with colorectal cancer.
Breast cancer is the most common women's cancer and the third leading cause of death. Advances in prevention, detection and primary treatment have improved overall survival leading to its growing acceptance as a long-term disease. Following the announcement of breast cancer, but also after primary treatment, some symptoms appear directly compromising psychic and physical spheres. Hippotherapy is an emerging specialized rehabilitation approach performed through specially trained horses by accredited health professionals. The proposed hippotherapy program offers key elements for physical, psychic and social reinforcement, complementing conventional care. The aim is to provide patients with tools to consolidate their self-awareness and thus strengthen their ability to cope with the disease.
Through this study our aim was to evaluate whether significant change in serum calcium level occurs in term newborns who are undergoing phototherapy and to find out the association between effect of phototherapy on serum calcium level and birth weight, postnatal age and type of feeding.
This study aimed to detect tongue edema induced by the pressure exerted by tonsillar retractor; edema detection was made through tongue area measurement using ultrasonography (USG) in pediatric patients who underwent tonsillectomy surgeries.
The ideal induction agent for day care surgery should have properties of rapid, smooth induction, better haemodynamic profile, faster recovery and devoid of side effects in the form of pain on injection, involuntary movements, respiratory depression and post-operative nausea/vomiting. Propofol is the drug being used for day care surgeries because of its rapid, smooth induction and faster recovery. But its use is associated with pain on injection (even with added lidocaine), hypotension and respiratory depression. So the need for an agent with better hemodynamic control and lesser side effects was felt. The introduction of etomidate lipuro revolutionised the anaesthesia practice. It possesses many of the properties of an ideal induction agent. This newer formulation of etomidate in lipid emulsion i.e. etomidate lipuro is known to have rapid, smooth induction, haemodynamic stability and lesser side effects than older etomidate with propylene glycol (hypnomidate). Hence, investigators devised a prospective randomized controlled open trial and compared this newer lipid formulation of etomidate with propofol in terms of - induction time, haemodynamic parameters and side effect profile.
This main purpose of this study is to examine the effects of an exercise intervention to counteract adverse side effects related to Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) in prostate cancer patients. Specifically, a supervised and home-based exercise program will be used to assess its impact on clinical and behavioral variables related to ADT in prostate cancer patients.
In the current study we tested the hypothesis that new 0.05% Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) mouthrinse formulations containing 0.12% or 0.03% chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX): 1) yield similar or better clinical results regarding the inhibition of de novo plaque growth compared to those achieved with an already marketed 0.12% CHX mouthrinse (Perio-Aid Treatment without alcohol. Dentaid, Spain), 2) reduce the side effects caused by the marketed 0.12% CHX formula and 3) that these mouthrinses have no negative microbiological effects, and they control total bacterial loads.
Postoperative pain management is a major problem after repair of pectus excavatum.Various methods of pain management have been introduced. However, the effects of continuous wound infusion of local anesthetics through ON-Q catheters were not well evaluated in pectus surgery. Therefore, we conducted prospective randomized controlled study to compare the effects of IV PCA and continuous wound infusion after repair of pectus excavatum.
The purpose of this study is to find out differences in activation of mood regulating areas of the brain in response to negative and positive pictures, before and after 6 weeks of additional Wellbutrin XL treatment. Participants should have been treated for depression with an SSRI medication (e.g., Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Celexa or Lexapro) and have decreased depression symptoms but also be experiencing side effects of medications such as sexual side effects and feelings of apathy (indifference, lack of interest) and lack of full emotional response. We will first take a brain scan to measure activity in different parts of the brain, while subjects are seeing pictures, using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan. Then we will add Wellbutrin XL - another well-known antidepressant that acts by increasing the chemical dopamine in the brain, to subjects' treatment. Wellbutrin addition is useful in decreasing the sexual side effects of SSRIs. After treatment with Wellbutrin XL for 6 weeks subjects will have a second MRI scan with picture rating.
