Genetics of Endocrine Tumours - Familial Isolated Pituitary Adenoma - FIPA
The research is aimed at identifying new predisposition genes for endocrine tumours. Our focus initially is on pituitary adenomas including growth hormone-secreting tumors (somatotrophinomas) and prolactin secreting tumours (prolactinomas), but we wish to extend work to other pituitary tumour cases/families. The recruitment process will be as follows. We will recruit …
An Investigation of Pituitary Tumors and Related Hypothalmic Disorders
There is a variety of tumors affecting the pituitary gland in childhood; some of these tumors (eg craniopharyngioma) are included among the most common central nervous system tumors in childhood. The gene(s) involved in the pathogenesis of these tumors are largely not known; their possible association with other developmental defects …
Medical Imaging Screening for Posterior-circulation Ischemic Stroke
Patients with ischemic stroke in the posterior circulation continue to have high rates of mortality and disability, even with aggressive treatment. We wanted to evaluate preoperative imaging to screen patients with a good prognosis from mechanical embolization. We assess the degree of ischemia by defining the pons-midbrain-medulla index (PMMI) and …
Birdshot Chorioretinopathy : Prospective Follow-up and Immunogenetic Studies(CO-BIRD)
The purpose of this study is twofold: To analyze the clinical features of a cohort of patients with birdshot chorioretinopathy (BCR), an inflammatory bilateral ocular disease, affecting the choroid and the retina. Various imaging techniques will be used to assess the effect of the disease on the retina and the …
French Prospective Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Cohort Study (FAST)
In this study we will examine patients who have undergone anterior cruciate and/or posterior cruciate ligament and/or multi ligaments reconstruction to determine the rate of re-injury, contralateral tear and functional outcomes at least two years after surgery.
Durability of Suppl. Rod Constructs-SuppleMentAry Rod Technique for Long-segment Posterior Instrumented Spinal Fusions
This is a multicenter retrospective comparative cohort study. The index surgery for this study is primary or revision long-segment posterior thoracolumbar (TL) instrumented fusion using either a supplementary rod construct or a dual-rod construct. Eligible patients who already had index surgery, will be identified for enrollment through a review of …
Biomechanical Analysis of Dynamic Tasks and Muscular Strength Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Background Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are one of the most common sporting injuries of the knee. ACL reconstruction (ACLR) has become one of the most common surgical procedures in an attempt to increase joint stability and facilitate athletes to return to sport (RTS). Although ACLR is considered a relatively …
Study on Susceptibility Genes of Anterior Cruciate Ligament, Patella Dislocation and Discoid Meniscus
Genomes of all sports medicine-related genes will be exome sequenced to find relevant gene mutations. To further study the molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways related to sports injury. To search for genetic risk factors of injury and put forward related scientific hypotheses. To demonstrate the importance of mutation or polymorphism …
Cerebellar Mutism Syndrome Study
The purpose of this study is to determine why up to 25% of the pediatric patients who have surgery for a tumor in the posterior fossa develops the Cerebellar Mutism Syndrome (CMS). Furthermore the purpose is to explore the clinical course and the best treatment of the syndrome.
Baseline ACL Injury Risk Screening and Normative Data
This is a prospective, observational cohort study aimed at establishing a database of normative biomechanics for healthy athletes and surveying these athletes for one year following baseline testing for the occurrence of new musculoskeletal injuries, with a particular emphasis on ACL injuries.
