Pituitary Tumor Surveillance: Pathogenic Correlation
The purpose of this study is to observe predictors of pituitary tumor recurrence and markers of persistent disease activity in patients harboring pituitary mass lesions of all types.
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 …
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 …
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 …
Study Comparing Transobturator Cystocele vs. Anterior Vaginal RepairS
Surgical correction of the prolapse in the anterior compartment remains one of the major challenges in urogynecology. Paravaginal defect in level II of vaginal fixation results in the majority of cystoceles. Clinically, these defects are often combined and/or may be bilateral. Hence, careful assessment and individualized planning of the surgical …
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.
Intra-Arterial Thrombolysis After SUCCESSful Reperfusion in Anterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide. Despite the clinical benefit of mechanical thrombectomy, 1 out of 2 patients treated are functionally independent at 90 days. Achieving the best possible angiographic reperfusion is a key determinant of clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients with anterior circulation …
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 …
Extending the Time Window for Tenecteplase by Recanalization of Basilar Artery Occlusion in Posterior Circulation Stroke
Patients presenting to the emergency department with an acute ischemic stroke due to basilar artery occlusion within 24 hours of stroke onset will be assessed to determine their eligibility for randomization into the trial. If the patient gives informed consent they will be randomised 50:50 using a central computerised allocation …
