Filter by:Our team has constructed a prediction model based on the expression level of immune factors (PD-L1, PD-1, CTLA4, Siglec15) to predict the chronicization of radiation-induced acute intestinal injury (RAII) and verified the predictive efficacy of the system in retrospective studies. This clinical study intends to further prospectively verify the accuracy of this prediction model in rectal cancer patients. In this study, we plan to enroll 200 patients diagnosed with locally advanced rectal cancer by pathology and MRI, who undergo neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCRT) and total mesorectal excision (TME) and develop RAII during NCRT or within 1 month. We will follow up the occurrence and progression of radiation-induced intestinal injury within 1 year after TME. Expression levels of immune factors will be detected in pathological tissue after TME and applied to the prediction model to predict the chronicization of RAII. Based on the clinical diagnosis of chronic radiation-induced intestinal injury, the area under curve (AUC), accuracy, precision, specificity, and sensitivity of this prediction model in predicting the chronicization of RAII will be evaluated. The main outcome hypothesis is that the AUC of chronicization of RAII predicted by the prediction model based on the expression level of immune factors is more than 0.8.
Study of role of colchicine in reducing periprocedural myocardial injury in patients prepared for elective PCI and its role in reduction of MACEs.
In Canada, injury leads to more potential years of life lost and to greater costs than heart and stroke diseases combined. Furthermore, more than 50% of patients hospitalised following injury do not receive optimal care, 20% of injury deaths are estimated to be preventable, and significant variations in injury mortality and morbidity have been observed across trauma centers in Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and the United States. Over the past decades, emphasis on adherence to evidence-based processes of care (rewards for doing more) and rapid innovation in imaging and therapeutic techniques has led to an exponential rise in unnecessary tests and procedures. Whole body computed tomography scan for single-system trauma is just one example. Low-value clinical practices, defined as "the common use of a particular intervention when the benefits don't justify the potential harm or cost" consume up to 30% of healthcare budgets. They expose patients to physical and psychological adverse events and put enormous pressure on healthcare budgets, thereby threatening accessible, universal health care. The objective of this research project is to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention targeting reductions in low-value clinical practices for injury admissions. The results of this study should directly lead to improvements in the health systems across Canada and elsewhere. Medium and long-term advantages include an increase in healthcare efficiency and effectiveness, a reduction in costs, an increase in the availability of resources for patients who need them and a reduction in adverse events for patients hospitalized following injury.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test CRIS100 treatment in participants with acute thoracic spinal cord injury. The main questions it aims to answer are: - safety of CRIS100 - efficacy of CRIS100 Participants will receive 75 mcg CRIS100 in the epicenter of the spinal injury, within 72 hours of the trauma.
This research aims to assess physiotherapy utilization in the treatment of patients with an anterior-cruciate ligament knee injury, when delivered before their surgery (prehab), and its potential effects on absence from work, and patients global health consumptions (before and after the surgery).
The overall objective of this study is to use standard clinical measures to explore the safety and preliminary effectiveness of open-label MDMA-assisted therapy with a flexible dose of methylenedioxymethamphetaminel, in participants with Post traumatic Stress Disorder and moral injury, in individual and group treatment settings. The overall safety objective is to assess the severity, incidence, and frequency of AEs, AEs of Special Interest (AESIs), and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), concomitant medication use, suicidal ideation and behavior and vital signs .
Sepsis has emerged as one of the important life-threatening infectious diseases with high morbidity and mortality. Sepsis-associated kidney injury (SAKI) is one of the most common and serious complications of sepsis. It has been found that intestinal flora may affect the occurrence and development of a variety of diseases, and may also affect the pathogenesis of multiple SAKI, which is also regulated by host genetic factors. Therefore, the investigators speculate that gut microbiota composition may be associated with susceptibility to SAKI, and there are no studies reporting the association between gut microbiota and SAKI. The investigators intend to carry out a multicenter study in conjunction with the Department of Intensive Care of Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital. The structure and function of intestinal flora in septic patients with renal injury and septic patients less susceptible to renal injury are studied by 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing technology. The differences in composition, diversity and structural stability of intestinal flora between the two groups are analyzed to explore the genera that play a key role in the occurrence of the disease. By analyzing the differences between renal injury and inflammation levels in each group, the correlation between intestinal flora and SAKI, the possible influencing links involved, and the related factors affecting the prognosis of SAKI were revealed. The results of this study are helpful to further elucidate the pathogenesis of SAKI and provide new ideas and methods for the prevention and treatment of SAKI.

Historically, participation in clinical trials has been skewed towards certain groups. However, research on the factors that influence participation, both positive and negative, is limited. Brain injury clinical trial patients help us identify these factors by sharing trial experiences during the course of the interventional medical study. This study will include a diverse group of participants to gather a wide range of information on clinical trial experiences. The collected data will then be used to benefit future brain injury patients who are considering participating in a medical study.
