Effectiveness of Physical Exercise of Patients With Chronic Non-communicable Disease
According to the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), chronic, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the main cause of death and disability in the world. The term, NCD refers to a group of diseases that are not primarily caused by acute infection and result in long-lasting health consequences, with significant long-term care …
The Use of Entropy to Assess Sleep Disordered Breathing in Chronic Respiratory Disease
Research is being conducted into chronic respiratory diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, interstitial lung disease, and bronchiectasis. The investigation specifically focuses on sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in individuals with chronic respiratory disease. SDB encompasses a range of conditions, the most common of which is obstructive sleep apnoea. In …
HCAPPED I: HCAP-Pcr in Emergency Department
Prospective Observational Study (on Diagnostic Procedure) - Single-Center, Non-Profit. A pilot study will be conducted on a prospective cohort of patients with HCAP (Healthcare-Associated Pneumonia). This study will be conducted on a single arm of patients. No control group or randomization is planned. The use of syndromic molecular panels in …
COPD-Related Physiology and the Brain
COPD is the third leading cause of combined morbidity, disability, and mortality in the United States and is often associated with cognitive impairment. The goal of the proposed project is to examine novel pulmonary and vascular physiological mechanisms that contribute to structural brain abnormalities and cognitive dysfunction early in the …
Predicting Immunotherapy Response and Survival of Lung Cancer Patients Using Artificial Intelligence and Radiomics (Radiology-AI-Lung)
CT imaging data from lung cancer (NSCLC and SCLC) patients prior to the initiation of immunotherapy (and possibly also after treatment) will be collected. The processing pipeline includes automatic tumor segmentation, radiomics feature extraction, feature selection, and construction of a classification model.
The Effect of Single Lung Ventilation Duration on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Thoracic Surgery
This observational study investigates the relationship between the duration of single-lung ventilation (SLV) and the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) such as pneumonia, pneumothorax, hemothorax, acute lung injury, and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in adult patients undergoing thoracic surgery. A total of 134 patients aged 18-85 years, scheduled …
Implementing Spiritual Care in Inpatient Palliative Care
The goal of this observational study is to is to ascertain the spiritual needs of palliative patients in a standardized manner using the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire and to promptly address those needs by (specialized) spiritual care. To determine whether the effort of implementing the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire on a sustainable …
Molecular Analysis of Suspected or High-Risk Lung Cancer to Drive Individualized Care (Interception for Suspected Lung Cancer)
This study evaluates the effectiveness of robotic biopsies in providing information about hereditary or cancer specific genetic variants that may have a role in diagnosis of cancer and to develop genetic results and medical record databank for future studies.
A Clinico-biological Database of Lung Cancers
This prospective, single-center, interventional study is conducted in order to achieve a biological bank accompanied by clinical data. Blood samples, optional tumor tissue and fecal samples are collected, processed and banked for all the included subjects. Those samples are collected before the start of treatment, at the time of first …
OSA in Never Smokers With Lung Cancer
Previous studies have yielded inconsistent findings regarding the association between obstructive sleep apnea and the prevalence and mortality of lung cancer. Smoking history, a common risk factor for lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and obstructive sleep apnea, may act as a confounding variable, limiting interpretation of the results. The …
