Immunohistopathologic Findings of Cesarean Scar Niche
Niche is iatrogenic pouch like defect, present on the uterine isthmus' anterior wall where a previous caesarean section scar was made. Still, a niche has generally been defined as the myometrium's depression of at least 2 mm (Lumbanraja et al., 2024). The literature is lacking in information about the accurate …
Effectiveness of Embrace Scar Therapy Device After Cutaneous Wound Closure
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of the embrace device after repair of linear cutaneous surgery wounds improves scar cosmesis.
Postoperative Scar in the Control Excess of Mobility Induced by Annulus Removal on Inserting a Lumbar Disc Prosthesis
To implant a complete lumbar disc prosthesis removal of the anterior portion of the annulus fibrosus is required. As the anterior portion of the annulus limits the movement in extension and axial rotation, we would like to know how much increase these two disc movements and also the effect on …
Laparoscopic Versus Combined Laparoscopic and Hysteroscopic Repair of CS Niche
Uterine niche is a frequent condition in patients with a history of cesarean section. Many treatment methods have been described for repair of niche with varying effectivities. In conventional Laparoscopic approach, not all bleeding points and fibrotic area are resected, while conventional hysteroscopic one result in more wide defect with …
Partial Breast Versus no Irradiation for Women With Early Breast Cancer
All early breast cancer patients are offered adjuvant breast radiation therapy (RT) after breast conserving surgery for an early breast cancer. Breast cancer is heterogeneous, and selected patients have a very low gain from RT, whilst they still have risk of acute and late side effects from RT. This trial …
RCT of Implantable Defibrillators in Patients With Non Ischemic Cardiomyopathy, Scar and Severe Systolic Heart Failure
BRITISH is a UK multicentre trial of patients who have been diagnosed with heart failure due to Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathy (NICM, or heart failure that is not caused by blocked heart arteries. Participants will be randomised into two groups. Half the participants will receive an Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) and the other …
Study to Learn About the Safety of Fazirsiran and if it Can Help People With Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Liver Disease With Mild Liver Scarring (Fibrosis)
In some people, the liver makes an abnormal version of the alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) protein, called Z-AAT. Making an abnormal version of the AAT protein can result in liver disease as Z-AAT builds up in liver cells, which leads to liver problems such as liver scarring (fibrosis), continuing liver damage …
Study to Check the Safety of Fazirsiran and Learn if Fazirsiran Can Help People With Liver Disease and Scarring (Fibrosis) Due to an Abnormal Version of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Protein
The main aim of this study is to learn if fazirsiran reduces liver scarring (fibrosis) compared to placebo. Other aims are to learn if fazirsiran slows down the disease worsening in the liver, to get information on how fazirsiran affects the body (called pharmacodynamics), to learn if fazirsiran reduces other …
Prevention of the Risk of Complete Sternotomy Scar Dehiscence in Cardiac Surgery: A Clinical Investigation Comparing Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) vs. Standard Dressing
Mediastinitis is the most feared infectious complication after cardiac surgery. Several risk factors are known such as: obesity, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, double breast sampling, immunodeficiency, corticosteroid therapy, reoperation, chest radiotherapy, and dialysis. Three modes of contamination are described: intraoperative contamination, hematogenous dissemination during sepsis, gradual contamination from cutaneous …
Treatment of Hypopigmented Scars With Bimatoprost
Patients who have hypo-pigmented burn scar will have two scars chosen and randomized to treated scar and control scar. The subject will then have both scars treated with fractional ablative CO2 laser (FLSR). The treated scar will have bimatoprost delivered through the laser channels, while the control will have the …
