Pulmonary Embolism and Right-to-Left Shunts
Every fetus has a small hole in their heart, called a foramen ovale when they are developing in the womb. For most people this hole closes shortly after birth, but it doesn't close completely in 1 out of every 4 people. This is called a "patent" foramen ovale, or PFO. …
Evaluation of 89Zr-DFO-nimotuzumab for Non-invasive Imaging of EGFR+ Cancers by Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
Over-expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) on cells occurs in all aggressive cancers of epithelial origin. Existing tests for monitoring EGFR expression are invasive and not reliable. There needs to be a better way to measure EGFR expression in cancerous tumors to better tailor cancer treatments. This clinical trial …
Local Consolidative Therapy and Durvalumab for Oligoprogressive and Polyprogressive Stage III NSCLC After Chemoradiation and Anti-PD-L1 Therapy
This phase II trial finds out the effect of local consolidative therapy and durvalumab in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that has 3 or fewer lesions of progression (oligoprogressive) and greater than 3 lesions of progression (polyprogressive) after chemoradiation and anti-PD-l1 therapy. Local consolidative therapy, such …
Intestinal Low Dose Radiotherapy Combined With Immunotherapy in Immune-resistant Metastatic Malignant Solid Tumors
Preclinical and clinical evidence suggests that intestinal low-dose radiotherapy (ILDR) may enhance antitumor immune responses by modulating the gut microenvironment, thereby improving the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICBs) in refractory solid tumors. Based on these findings, the investigators initiate a multicohort phase II clinical trial to evaluate the clinical …
Timing of Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis in Patients With Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhage
The objective of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficiency of different anticoagulation schemes with heparin for venous thromboembolism prevention in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the optimal time for the beginning of anticoagulation with heparin …
Curatively Intended Thoracic Reirradiation
The number of long-term lung cancer (LC) survivors increases, however many patients are diagnosed with recurrent or new thoracic cancers. High-dose reirradiation (reRT) is promising but associated with high severe toxicity rates. Existing studies are small lacking high-quality data, with no clear correlation between toxicity risk and delivered radiotherapy (RT) …
Physiologic Effects of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and High Flow Nasal Oxygenation in Patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) consists on a lack of breath due to fluid overload in the lungs that is not produced by a heart desease. Some people with this condition may need to be intubated and connected to invasive mechanical ventilation, but less severe cases may need supplementary …
By Assessing the Continuous Respiratory Physiological Changes Through Prone Position, Determine the Optimal Duration for Prone Position
The prone position leads to a more homogeneous distribution of ventilation by inflation of collapsed alveoli and reduction in alveolar hyperinflation. By employing EIT, the study can obtain a thorough comprehension of the ongoing alterations in regional ventilation before and after adopting the prone position. It is also anticipated that …
Mucosal Associated Invariant T Cell During Viral Pneumonia and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Viral pneumonia, including SARS-CoV-2 and influenza A virus (IAV), can culminate in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a severe form of respiratory failure with high mortality. Uncontrolled local inflammatory response and impaired tissue repair are hallmarks of ARDS. However, lack of in-depth understanding of the immunopathology lead to limited identification …
Low-glucose/High-fat Intake Dietary Regimen as a Tool for Empowering Diagnostic Accuracy of 2-[18F]FDG PET/CT in Lepidic-predominant Growth Lung Adenocarcinoma
This study evaluates whether a 7-day ketogenic dietary regimen before 2-\[18F\]FDG PET/CT can improve the diagnostic accuracy of imaging in adults with suspected or histologically confirmed lepidic-predominant lung adenocarcinoma (LPA). LPA frequently shows low glucose metabolism and may yield false-negative FDG PET/CT results. Approximately 30 participants will undergo a tailored …
