Neuropathic Pain and Type II Diabetic Patients
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a common metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from insufficiency, deficiency or absence of the insulin hormone. Chronic hyperglycemia, secondary metabolic and microvascular changes resulting in diabetic neuropathy are among the most common complications encountered in DM patients. Diabetic neuropathy is called peripheral, autonomic or spinal …
Optic Nerve Sheath Ultrasound in Giant Cell Arteritis
The Sonographic Assessment of the Optic Nerve Sheath in Giant Cell Arteritis (SONIC-GCA) study will evaluate the performance of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), measured via ultrasound, to diagnose and monitor GCA. SONIC-GCA builds upon our previous pilot studies and will answer the following questions: What is the performance …
MRI-Guided Cryoablation to Alleviate Pain in Head, Neck and Spine
The objective of this study is to provide pain relief to patients with facet joint disease or head and neck pain related to compression of a nerve root. The goal is to provide palliative care with superior efficacy and longer relief compared to current methods.
Reliability of Force Measurement Within the Carbon Fiber Orthosis Proximal Cuff
The primary purpose of this research study is to determine if forces within carbon fiber custom dynamic orthoses (CDOs) can be reliability assessed using Loadpad and Loadsol force measuring sensors (Novel GMBH, St. Paul, MN). An improved understanding of the forces acting within orthoses may help to guide future orthosis …
A Basket Clinical Study to Assess Glycerol Tributyrate in Patients With Mitochondrial Encephalopathy, Lactic Acidosis, Stroke-like Episodes (MELAS) or Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy-Plus (LHON-Plus)
This is a parallel arm non-randomized dose-escalation, open-label basket exploratory phase 1 clinical trial where Mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like episodes (MELAS) and Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy-Plus (LHON-Plus) participants will undergo simultaneous enrollment in two disease-based arms and receive daily oral doses of glycerol tributyrate to assess its safety and …
Contribution of an Off-the-shelf Carbon Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) in the Management of Walking Functional Impairment
The objective of this study is to assess the superiority in achieving personal goals (set by the patient and the medical team) according to the GAS scale (Goal Attainment Scaling) while wearing the carbon medical device Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) compared to a standard plastic ankle foot orthosis.
RESting-state Functional MRI in Patients With Optic Neuritis for ANticipation of reCovEry
When patients arrive in the waiting room of the MRI department, patients will be given the briefing note explaining the purpose of the study and how it is going. During the consultation, the radiologist will check the inclusion and non-inclusion criteria, and will take the time to answer all of …
Pilot Test of Caregiver Training Protocol for Brachial Plexus Birth Injury
The brachial plexus is a network of nerves that exit the spinal cord from the C5-T1 nerve roots and provide all motor and sensory function to the arm from the shoulder to the fingers. Injury to the brachial plexus due to traction forces during labor and/or delivery causing the nerves …
Accuracy of the Polymerase Chain Reaction of Ulnar Perineural Subcutaneous Aspirate Guided by Ultrasound for the Diagnosis and Monitoring of Leprosy Cure
\*\Brief Summary\\* Leprosy is a chronic granulomatous infectious disease caused by \Mycobacterium leprae\ or \Mycobacterium lepromatosis\, characterized by peripheral nerve involvement that may lead to progressive neurological damage, disability, and deformities if not diagnosed and treated early. The diagnosis of leprosy is primarily clinical and epidemiological, supported by laboratory methods …
Home-Based Exercise After Cervical Epidural Steroid Injection for Cervical Radiculopathy
Cervical radiculopathy is a common cause of neck and arm pain resulting from compression or inflammation of a cervical nerve root. Cervical epidural steroid injection is frequently used to reduce pain and improve function in patients who do not respond to conservative treatment. However, long-term functional recovery may require additional …
