Cera™ Vascular Plug System Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up
The objective of the study is to collect and evaluate clinical data on patients of the Lifetech Cera™ Vascular Plug System to: confirm the performance confirm the safety identify previously unknown side-effects monitor the identified side-effects (related to the procedures or to the medical devices) identify and analyse emergent risks
Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Cardiac Function in Patients With Hypertension
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of bariatric surgery on cardiac function assessed by echocardiography in patients with hypertension.
Efficacy of Spironolactone Combined With Antihypertensive Drugs in Patients With Primary Aldosteronism
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the optimal dose of spironolactone treatment and the long-term outcomes on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in patients with lateralized PA who are unwilling to undergo surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the long-term effect of …
Overnight Dexamethasone in Primary Aldosteronism Screening
The goal of this observational study is to learn whether screening for primary aldosteronism can be improved among patients on chronic blood pressure-lowering medications by ordering intake of 1 mg of dexamethasone prior to hormonal examinations. Primary aldosteronism is a condition, in which an adrenal gland steroid aldosterone is released …
Study of Disrupted Sleep in Somali Americans
The aims of this study are to determine the types and severity of previously undiagnosed sleep deficiencies in otherwise healthy Somali Americans, apply a research framework to define psychosocial, behavioral, environmental, and biological mechanisms mediating sleep deficiencies in Somali Americans, and examine the relationship between sleep deficiencies and increased blood …
Determining Postoperative Recovery and the Impact of Adverse Events in Neurosurgery Based on Self-reported, App-based Longitudinal Assessment - a Collaborative Observational Research Project
Analyzing the impact of surgery and adverse events (AEs) on patients' well-being is of paramount importance as it provides essential information for benefit-risk assessment. Current methods in outcome research are static, resource-intensive and subject to missing-data issues. Moreover, AEs are inconsistently reported using various grading systems that usually do not …
Optic Nerve Sheath Ultrasound in Giant Cell Arteritis
The Sonographic Assessment of the Optic Nerve Sheath in Giant Cell Arteritis (SONIC-GCA) study will evaluate the performance of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), measured via ultrasound, to diagnose and monitor GCA. SONIC-GCA builds upon our previous pilot studies and will answer the following questions: What is the performance …
Assessment of Risks of Perinephric Fat Thickness to Adverse Renal Outcomes Post Donor Nephrectomy
The goal of this observational study is to learn if PRAT thickness is a marker of visceral obesity and its influence on donors' kidney function and blood pressure in living kidney donors. Population includes male/female, 18 years and up, living kidney donors scheduled for nephrectomy within 6 months, with a …
International Intracranial Dissection Study
Cervicocerebral artery dissection is a major cause for stroke in young adults. While knowledge of cervical artery dissection (CeAD) has increased thanks to a number of high quality studies, knowledge on intracranial artery dissection (IAD) is limited. Due to treatment and publication bias little is known about the natural history …
Tissue Sodium Quantification in Patients With Primary Aldosteronism: See Sodium to Treat
The study aims to provide quantitative facts on the pathophysiological changes in tissue Na+ content during Na+/K+ redistribution disorders in patients with PA in response to standard therapy. The investigators hypothesize that patients with primary aldosteronism have excessive Na+ storage in the muscle, which can now be quantified non-invasively using …
