EMPOWER-1: A Multi-site Clinical Cohort Research Study to Reduce Health Inequality
Health inequality and genetic disparity are a significant issue in the United Kingdom (UK). This study focuses on diseases that are associated with significant morbidity and mortality in the UK, and specifically examines the extent and basis of treatment failure in different patient populations. The vast majority of drug registration …
Neurosurgical Outcome Network
The evaluation of neurosurgical outcomes varies from center to center, and the predictive factors that determine these outcomes are not fully known or shared. This study aims to assess outcomes and their predictors using measures agreed upon by the participating centers. Standardizing the evaluation of outcomes and predictors improves the …
PatientSpot Formerly Known as ArthritisPower
Patient Power is a patient research network and database (registry) to collect prospective information about demographics, self-reported diagnoses and medications, and willingness to participate in research from participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyloarthritis (SpA), other musculoskeletal conditions, chronic neurological conditions like migraine, chronic pulmonary conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease …
Tissue Repository Providing Annotated Biospecimens for Approved Investigator-directed Biomedical Research Initiatives
To collect, preserve, and/or distribute annotated biospecimens and associated medical data to institutionally approved, investigator-directed biomedical research to discover and develop new treatments, diagnostics, and preventative methods for specific and complex conditions.
Rare Disease Patient Registry & Natural History Study - Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford
CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures …
Volatile Non-Invasive Biomarkers of Epileptic Seizures
Breath and sweat samples will be collected from people who have been admitted to hospital after a potential seizure and analysed by the team. The researchers then hope to identify a pattern of small molecules that can distinguish seizures from other events, and perhaps determine the severity of the seizure.
Identification of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) as Biopredictors of Epileptic Seizures
The unpredictable nature of epileptic seizures places people with epilepsy under permanent psychological stress, which contributes significantly to a restriction in their quality of life. The possibility of predicting the arrival of epileptic seizures would allow, in addition to taking a preventive treatment if the risk of seizure is close, …
The Role of Intracranial Electroencephalography (IEEG) in the Localization of Epileptogenic Zones (EZ) and Its Relationship With Prognosis
The mechanism of epilepsy pathogenesis is complex and not fully defined, and about 20-30% of patients with seizures that cannot be completely controlled by drugs become drug-resistant epilepsy. For focal drug-resistant epilepsy, surgical removal of the epileptogenic zone can control seizures, but the overall seizure-free rate in the long term …
Seizure Recurrence After Unprovoked First Seizure
One in 10 people have a seizure during their life. Usually no cause is identified. Seizures without an identified cause are called unprovoked first seizure (UFS). Most people with UFS do not have further seizures. Being able to predict the risk of more seizures as soon as possible would help …
User Controlled Follow-up of Epilepsy
In December 2019 Vestre Viken Hospital Trust implemented user controlled epilepsy follow-up. Patients receive follow-up questions digitally twice yearly. The questionnaire was made by a multidisciplinary national network of epilepsy experts (EpilepsiNett). Responses to the questionnaire are controlled by an epilepsy nurse, and further follow-up is based on this. Data …
