A Study to Learn About How 20-Valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine Works in a Real-world Setting
The purpose of this study is to learn about how well the 20-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (20vPnC) works against radiologically-confirmed community-acquired pneumonia (RAD+CAP) due to the 7 new serotypes (types of a bacteria called Streptococcus pneumoniae that cause pneumonia) included in 20vPnC vaccine. This study is seeking participants who: are …
Association of Anti-factor Xa Activity With Venous Thromboembolism in Critically Ill Patients
The goal of this observational study is to analyse the association between anti-factor Xa activity (antiXa) and the occurence of venous thromboembolism (VTE; either deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism) in critically ill patients who are admitted to an intensive care unit. The main questions it aims to answer are: …
Residual Pulmonary Vascular Obstruction Index Computed with Ventilation/perfusion SPECT/CT Imaging to Predict the Risk of Venous Thromboembolism Recurrence in Patients with Pulmonary Embolism (PRONOSPECT)
Major risk after pulmonary embolism (PE) is recurrence, fatal in 10% of patients. Patients with PE can be stratified in 3 groups according to the risk of recurrence : very low risk, high risk or Intermediate risk. Little is known about this last group. Anticoagulation is efficient to prevent recurrence …
Screening for Lung Cancer in Subjects With Family History of Lung Cancer
Lung cancer can be detected via screening of high-risk individuals, i.e current or ex-heavy smokers, with low-dose computer tomography (LDCT) of thorax. The National Lung Screening Trial in US and the NELSON trial in Europe demonstrated reduction in lung cancer mortality with LDCT screening for lung cancer. In Hong Kong, …
Preterm Lung Patient Registry
The goal of the Preterm Lung Patient Registry is to collect data on individuals with neonatal lung disease to better understand the illness and ultimately improve their care and survival. The Patient Registry was established in 2008 as a means to monitor important trends in the BPD population and to …
Mobile Lung Cancer Screening
Lung cancer screening using low-dose CT (LDCT) has been shown to reduce mortality in high-risk populations. In 2022, the French National Cancer Institute (INCa) issued guidelines recommending screening for individuals aged 50-74 with a history of heavy smoking, including current smokers or those who quit less than 15 years ago. …
Belgian Lung Function Study
Currently, it remains unclear how to manage serial lung function measurements in a clinical setting. The investigators aimed to tackle this problem by developing a machine learning (ML) model that can accurately predict population and individual lung function trajectories. These predictions would enable the investigators to identify positive or negative …
Comparison of Segmentectomy Versus Lobectomy for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer ≤ 2 cm in the Middle Third of the Lung Field
This study aims to investigate whether segmentectomy had non-inferiority long-term oncological effects (disease-free survival and overall survival) compared with lobectomy in the treatment of patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer ≤ 2 cm in the middle third of lung field.
Lung Cancer Screening of Family Members of Patients With Mutation-Driven Lung Cancer
This is a single-armed screening research study which screens immediate family member of lung cancer patients with a driver mutation to see if lung cancer can be inherited and whether researchers can find lung cancer early. Immediate family members of lung cancer patients will be 40-80 years old and screened …
Emergency Medicine Pulmonary Embolism Testing Multicentre Study
It is important to diagnose pulmonary embolism in a timely manner to prevent death and long-term disability. More than half a million people (4-5% of emergency department patients) are tested for pulmonary embolism, although the positive rate is low. Imaging for PE testing exposes patients to radiation, is expensive, adds …
