Population: Egyptian children Exposure: Autistic children. Control: Normal children. Outcome: Primary Outcome: occurence of Traumatic injury. Secondary Outcome: Risk factor, Oral habits.
Unlike neuro-endocrine response to trauma; posttraumatic immune alterations are not easily carried out at bedside. The majority of trials were conducted in the intensive care usually hours to days post injury. In this trial the investigators sought assess the immune responses during emergency department trauma resuscitation by looking at the biomarkers of severe injury by comparing T lymphocytes and programmed cell death molecules and its relation with mortality.
The overarching goal of this research is to assess whether the post-operative use of closed-incision Negative Pressure Therapy (ciNPT) accelerates healing of surgical wounds, improves surgical outcomes, and reduces the rate of local complications in high-risk, obese, post-bariatric patients undergoing abdominal body-contouring procedures (abdominal panniculectomy or "abdominoplasty") compared to standard wound care. The investigators postulate that ciNPT can cost-effectively improve outcomes and standard of post-surgical care in this specific category of patients. This hypothesis will be tested through a prospective, interventional, case-control, randomized clinical trial.
This project will determine the feasibility and validity of measuring elbow muscle flexor stiffness in a population of patients with sub-acute severe acquired brain injury using two measurement methods, the portable spasticity assessment device (PSAD) (Movotec, Charlottenlund, Denmark) and an ultrasound measurement called shear wave sonoelastography (SWE).
Acute kidney injury(AKI) is a common, severe emergency case in clinics,especially severe AKI ,which is associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Effect of routine therapy is limited and mesenchymal stem cells (MSC)are considered a new therapy for treating severe acute kidney injury. Patients will be randomized to receive intravenous infusion of MSC, or placebo control. This trial is to investigate whether MSC can improve renal recovery and mortality of patients with AKI.
The purposes of this study is 1. To establish the validity of CEUS to measure renal perfusion by comparing it against ASL-MRI in young and older healthy volunteers, and generate a normative dataset of CEUS measures of renal perfusion. 2. Establish proof of principle for the use of CEUS to measure renal perfusion in the acute phase of AKI, demonstrating its feasibility and potential clinical utility. We will do this by performing daily CEUS measurements for up to five days in a cohort of people with AKI stage 3, commencing as close to onset. of AKI as possible, correlating with clinical data and following outcomes until 90 days.
This study evaluates the effect of pre-operative treatment with IV Tranexamic Acid on post-operative digit function, in patients that underwent surgical repair of traumatic zone 1 or zone 2 digit flexor tendon tear.
Iatrogenic urinary tract injuries are more common during obstetric and gynaecological procedures averaging 2.6 per 1000 surgeries . The objective of the study is to estimate the incidence of iatrogenic urinary tract injuries and risk factors during obstetric and gynaecological operations. Embryologically, the urinary system and genital system have a common origin, so anatomically they are so close that predisposes to iatrogenic trauma to it during obstetric and gynaecological operations. The bladder and distal ureters are the most commonly involved organs. The bladder is a retroperitoneal structure, its trigone rests over the anterior vaginal fornix and the base rests on lower uterine segment and cervix.
This study aims to develop a integrated predictive model based on serum biomarkers, HRV, and an innovative computerized classifier output, to predict the patient long term neurological outcome after a moderate or severe TBI in children.
Double layer artificial dermis repair material has been widely used in scar plastic, burn, trauma, chronic wounds and other aspects of wound repair and reconstruction. In the course of clinical application, we found that for chronic wounds, the combination of artificial dermis and growth factor can shorten the wound healing cycle, and have a positive impact on the economy and psychology of patients. In order to verify this effect, we plan to carry out this study to evaluate whether double-layer artificial dermis repair material combined with growth factor treatment can improve wound closure rate and shorten closure cycle compared with single artificial dermis for chronic wound.
