Filter by:The current retrospective study aimed to compare the effectiveness of local steroid injection plus splinting with that of local steroid injection or splinting alone. To assess the primary outcome, The Boston Carpal Tunnel Symptom Severity Scale was used. The secondary aim was the efficacy of the treatment on the patient's function severity and depression assessed by The Boston Carpal Tunnel Symptom Function Scale Edinburgh Depression Scale.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of six-week thoracic mobilization on pain intensity, muscle tone, functional and muscle activation in individuals with subacromial pain syndrome.
Annexin A2 (ANXA2), an endothelial cell receptor for plasminogen and tissue plasminogen activator, plays a pivotal role in regulation of fibrinolysis in vitro and in vivo and has been identified as a new autoantigen in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). ANXA2 can exist as a monomer or a heterotetrameric complex with S100A10 protein. The aim of this study was to evaluate the cell membrane expression of ANXA2 on circulating monocytes in APS by flow cytometry. Several pathogenic mechanisms are involved in APS such as activation of endothelial cells, platelets and monocytes, inhibition of the natural anticoagulant protein C/protein S pathway, activation of the complement system and also impairment of fibrinolysis. Annexin A2 which hits binding partner S100A10, ANXA2 forms a cell surface complex that regulates generation of plasmin. ANXA2 is involved in the pathogenesis of APS-associated through several possible mechanisms. Human peripheral blood monocytes represent the major circulating ANXA2-expressing cell and ANXA2-mediated assembly of plasminogen and tissue activator of plasminogen (tPA) on monocyte/macrophages contributes to plasmin generation. Thus the investigators could suppose that decrease of cell membrane expression of ANXA2 on circulating monocytes represent a new pathogenic mechanism in APS.
This is an investigator-initiated trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anti-CD19-CD3E-CAR-T cells in the relapse or refractory autoimmune diseases.
Multicentre no-profit, national, (cross-sectional diagnostic) retrospective study, promoted by the Italian Society for Rheumatology. The main objective of the study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of non-criteria aPL (anti-vimentin/cardiolipin and anti-phosphatidylserine/prothrombin) in identifying APS in patients with thrombosis/recurrent adverse pregnancy outcomes. The recruited patients have the following criteria: (i)Patients fulfilling the classification criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome (seropositive APS, SP-APS) or patients with seronegative APS (SN-APS) or patients with clinical criteria (thrombotic or obstetric) for APS, negative for aPL, but without clinical features highly suggestive of APS; (ii) Age <65 years; (iii) less than 5 years from the first event to the beginning of the study.
This is an open-label, Phase 1/2 study to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of APL-4098 alone and/or in combination with azacitidine for the treatment of relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/AML and MDS-excess blasts (EB). Participants with the MDS-EB subtype will be eligible for the Phase 1 part of the study only.
Vasoplegic syndrome after cardiac surgery is common and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is characterized by early and prolonged arterial hypotension, with preserved cardiac output and low systemic vascular resistance. Vasoplegic syndrome therefore shares pathophysiological features with septic shock. There are no data in the literature on the function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis during vasoplegic syndrome after cardiac surgery. In situations of acute stress and systemic inflammation, relative adrenal insufficiency has been reported in the most severe patients, particularly those in septic shock. The term ""CIRCI"" (Critical Illness-Related Corticosteroid Insufficiency) is currently defined as an increase in total plasma cortisol of less than 9 µg/dl after stimulation with 250 µg tetracosactide (synthetic ACTH), or a basal total plasma cortisol level of less than 10 µg/dl. However, recent studies have called into question the usefulness of the cosyntropin stimulation test for exploring the HPA axis in intensive care patients. Tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assays can be used to measure steroid metabolites (steroidome), enabling more precise exploration of the corticotropic axis. The aim of this study is to evaluate, on an exploratory basis, the impact of the presence of a post-cardiac surgery vasoplegic syndrome on adrenal function by steroidome mapping (LC-MS/MS).
Dravet syndrome is characterized as a developmental encephalopathy resulting from mutations of SCN1A, the gene encoding the alpha subunit of the voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1.1. The syndrome typically presents with drug-resistant epilepsy and varying degrees of cognitive disorders. Current treatment efficacy may be hindered by insufficient knowledge of undiscovered molecular determinants of the disease and its heterogeneous nature. Utilizing induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from skin biopsies, accessibility to patients' brain neurons has enabled successful modeling of various genetic neurological diseases. Neurons and brain organoids will be obtained from Dravet syndrome patients exhibiting diverse phenotypic severities, encompassing behavioral and developmental delays, to discern the molecular determinants of phenotypic diversity. Specifically, emphasis will be placed on investigating cellular and molecular mechanisms linking altered neuronal excitability with synaptic dysfunction.The study will focus on exploring the expression of newly identified modifiers potentially associated with neuronal excitability and synaptic function in iPSC-derived human neurons. This aims to establish correlations between the severity of epileptic and cognitive phenotypes and the altered expression of these proteins, whose functions are not fully understood.In the mid to long term, efforts will be directed towards overcoming the limitations of conventional therapeutic approaches for Dravet syndrome. This will involve attempting to reverse the observed morphological and functional alterations in Dravet syndrome neurons using viral vectors to promote overexpression/downregulation of identified modifiers correlated with disease severity. The anticipated outcomes of this project are expected to unveil novel molecular mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of this severe neurogenetic disease, characterized by varying degrees of cognitive impairment. Moreover, these findings may pave the way for the discovery of innovative therapeutic strategies.
This Phase 1b basket trial will investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of RAY121, a inhibitor of classical complement pathway, after multiple dose administration in patients with immunological diseases such as antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), bullous pemphigoid (BP), Behçet's Syndrome (BS), dermatomyositis (DM), immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).
