Lung Ultrasound for Guiding Antibiotic Use in Pediatric Pneumonia
Pneumonia is a major cause of illness and death in children, with an annual incidence of about 3.3 per 1,000 in those under five years old, many requiring hospitalization. The diagnosis is challenging due to the absence of a universally accepted gold standard, leading to variability in emergency settings. Current …
Health Education Approach to Lung Screening
Evaluate the impact of the patient navigation program on the proportion of patients who complete lung cancer screening (LCS), defined as undergoing a low dose computed tomography (LDCT)
Lung Cancer Screening Program in Mexico
This prospective study aims to detect early-stage lung cancer using low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) in Mexicans aged 50 or older who are current or former heavy smokers, non-smokers exposed to significant wood smoke, or diagnosed with COPD. Annual LDCT, spirometry, and serum biomarker tests will be conducted over 3 years, …
Rural Illinois Lung Cancer Screening Initiative
The role of this observational study is to access the feasibility of providing lung cancer screening using a designated nurse navigator through lung cancer screening clinic. Eligible participants will be identified using medical records, eligibility will be confirmed through phone call, screening visits will be scheduled as in-person visit or …
Evaluation of Cell Changes in Blood and Tissue in Cancers of the Lung, Esophagus and Lung Lining
Background Chromatin is is the structural building block of a chromosome. It is found inside the nucleus of the cell and consists of a complex of DNA and protein. Cancers of the lung, pleura (lung lining) and esophagus show profound changes in chromatin structure that may affect the course of …
Electrical Impedance Tomography-Based Prognostic Model for ARDS
This multicenter, prospective, observational study aims to develop and validate an EIT-based prognostic model for ARDS. By focusing on the pathophysiological characteristics of ARDS and the causes of ventilator-induced lung injury, the investigators intend to establish a prognostic model that reveals lung injury and heterogeneity, enabling risk stratification and guiding …
Diaphragmatic Function as a Biomarker
Dyspnea is among the most common symptoms in patients with respiratory diseases such as Asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), Fibrosis, and Pulmonary Hypertension. However, the pathophysiology and underlying mechanisms of dyspnea in patients with respiratory diseases are still poorly understood. Diaphragm dysfunction might be highly prevalent in patients with …
LUNG-07: Advancing Precision-Based Lung Cancer Screening: Implementation, AI-Guided Risk Stratification, and Biomarker Integration (CREST AI)
This research study aims to investigate methods for enhancing lung cancer screening. The study will investigate whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool, known as Sybil, can aid in predicting the risk of lung cancer. The investigators will also examine whether expanding the screening criteria (based on the guidelines of the …
Molecular and Genetic Analysis of Lung Cancer
Investigators use a genome-wide approach within a case-control design to identify SNPs that show evidence of association with lung cancer risk and survival.
Biomarkers for Risk Stratification in Lung Cancer
This is a prospective observational study that will follow patients who undergo lung cancer screening at the San Francisco VA Medical Center, University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) Medical Center, and the San Francisco General Hospital. The proposed study will comprise of two primary populations to determine the ctDNA assay …
