Recurrent or chronic abdominal pain is one of the common gastrointestinal problems in children. While most children do not have organic origins (so called functional abdominal pain disorders; FAPDs), the symptoms can nevertheless be severe enough to impair the patient's quality of life, growth, and development. To help rule out organic disorders and diagnose this condition, some individuals underwent multiple invasive and costly studies. Generally, the diagnosis of FAPDs is based on clinical symptoms and criteria, it can be divided into irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), abdominal migraine, functional abdominal pain (FAP) and functional dyspepsia (FD). Approximately 14% of children globally, between the ages of 4 and 18, experience functional abdominal pain issues8. In Thailand, the prevalence of FAPDs among adolescents (mean age of 16 years) was 5.3%, functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome were found to be the most prevalent subtypes. The pathogenesis of FAPDs is believed to result from disruptions in the microbiota-gut-brain axis, which may happen early in life or throughout. Hence, several studies, specifically in western countries, reported the role of probiotics, specifically Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG), in modulating abdominal symptoms in children with FAPDs. It is widely known that the diversity of gut microbiota depends on multiple factors including ethnicity, mode of delivery, dietary and environmental factors. However, the studies on the use of probiotics in pediatric patients with FAPDs have been mainly conducted in western countries. Since there are limited studies on the effectiveness of probiotics in Asian children with FAPDs, the investigators aim to evaluate the effects of probiotics, LGG, in the treatment of children who suffered from FAPDs. The secondary objectives are to measure daily pain score in children with and without FAPDs, to evaluate and compare the diversity of fecal microbiota in children with FAPDs and those without FAPDs, and to compare the diversity of fecal microbiota between children with FAPDs who took probiotics and those who did not.
When children become very sick and need to stay in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), it can have a big impact on their recovery and their family's well-being. Sometimes kids and their families feel worried or sad even after they leave the hospital. This can have an impact on the quality of their life after hospital discharge. To help understand and improve these experiences, the investigators want to study the "PICU diaries." These are journals that families and hospital staff can write in during the child's time in the hospital. Parents, other visitors and healthcare professionals can share thoughts, experiences, and even drawings or photos related to the child's admission. The content is a narrative account of what happens during the child's hospital stay, for the family to take home at PICU discharge. The investigators believe that writing in these diaries might help children and their families feel better after leaving the hospital. It might help kids feel less worried or sad, and it might also help their parents or caregivers feel better too. The study will include children who have been in the PICU and their families. Some families will receive these special diaries to use during their time in the hospital, while others won't. We'll then see how everyone feels after they leave the hospital and compare the two groups to see if the diaries make a difference. The investigators hope that by understanding how these diaries can help, healthcare professionals can make hospital experiences better for everyone involved.
To determine the efficacy and safety of 2 different treatment modalities: 1) acupuncture plus lifestyle management (treatment group), 2) placebo plus lifestyle management (control group) in the treatment of insulin resistance in PCOS patients.
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a rare and often debilitating chronic pain condition whereby individuals may experience extreme sensitivity, discoloration, and swelling of the affected area -- along with numerous other painful symptoms. There are currently a limited number of treatment options available to those suffering with the condition, with various treatments including nerve blocks, neuropathic medications, and desensitization physical therapy modules. There is budding interesting in the role naltrexone, an opiate antagonist, may play in the pain management of CRPS when prescribed in very low doses. This study aims to collect preliminary data on pain scores, symptom severity, and side-effects in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome randomized to receive low dose naltrexone or placebo capsules. Enrollment of 40 patients total will occur over two years from study start to study end. Each patient will be randomized to receive placebo capsules or active low dose naltrexone capsules, with both the patient and treating clinician blind to the randomization. Each patient will be actively enrolled in the study for six months and will take the medication daily at the instructed dose for the respective duration of time. Following the initial visit and study enrollment, the investigators are asking each patient to return for three (3) in-person follow-up office visits. These office visits will occur 1 month after the patient starts the medication, 3 months afterwards, and 6 months afterwards. The final 6-month office visit will mark the conclusion of the patient's active participation in the study.
Substance abuse during pregnancy is on the rise through both prescribed and illicit use of controlled substances, which has increased neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). The prevalence of opioid use during pregnancy has increased by 333% from 2013 to 2014 and continues to rise. Approximately 1 in 3 women were prescribed opioids during pregnancy from 2008 to 2012. In the US, NAS was diagnosed every 25 minutes in 2014. By 2019, it became every 15 minutes. Although there are medication-based interventions for the treatment of NAS, used in up to 80% of opioid-exposed infants, these treatments carry risks of toxicity and drug interactions. Despite the steep medical costs and the risks of treatment, current tools to assess the severity of NAS are subjective and suffer from examiner bias, resulting in poorer clinical outcomes, such as longer lengths of stay in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), for these babies. Studies have shown that continuous vital sign monitoring improves outcomes and decreases the length of stay in general practice. Preliminary machine learning models have been able to predict pharmacological treatment for Neonatal Opioid Withdrawal Syndrome (NOWS). This project will collect physiological and behavioral data of NAS patients to develop an AI algorithm and establish the advantages of continuous monitoring in NAS. The AI algorithm, processed by machine learning, will help predict NAS symptoms, automate scoring, and provide healthcare personnel with predictive analytics to guide suggested treatments.
