Clinical Antenatal Randomised Study to CharactErise Key Roles of TetrahydroFOLate in HyperTensive Pregnancies
Study background High blood pressure during pregnancy is a worldwide health problem that can be dangerous to mothers and commonly causes premature birth and small babies. There is also growing evidence that mothers who suffer from high blood pressure in pregnancy, and their babies, have a higher risk of high …
Choroidal and Retinal Features in PACD and POAG on OCT and OCTA
Glaucoma is a group of irreversible, progressive optic neuropathies that can lead to severe visual field defects and even blindness, affecting nearly 95 million people worldwide. Based on anterior chamber angle structure, glaucoma is classified into primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Although POAG is more common, …
Effects of Terlipressin and Somatostatin on Portal Pressure in Patients Undergoing Living Donor Liver Transplantation
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of somatostatin and terlipressin on lowering portal pressure in patients with portal hypertension undergoing liver transplantation, and to investigate whether there are differences in clinical outcomes between the two drugs. The study will evaluate the decrease in portal pressure …
EUS Guided Portal-systemic Pressure Gradient Measurement
Portal hypertension is characterised by an increased portal pressure gradient (PPG), that is the difference in pressure between the portal vein and the inferior vena cava (IVC). Portal hypertension is a consequence of cirrhosis resulting from chronic hepatitis. Patients with portal hypertension are at risk of developing complications including oesophageal …
Vagus Nerve-guided Laparoscopic Splenectomy and Azygoportal Disconnection
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of vagus nerve-guided laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection, and to assess its impact on postoperative digestive complications and quality of life.
A Trial of Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitor in Neonatal Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (TOP-CDH)
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) occurs in approximately 1 in 3000 US live births, similar to the incidence seen within the Utah Birth Defects cohort. The diaphragmatic defect compromises lung growth and alters pulmonary vascular development. This is reflected postnatally as respiratory failure, pulmonary hypertension (PH) and overall cardiopulmonary dysfunction, particularly …
Early TIPS in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis and Ascites
The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) implantation with standard treatment (diuretic medications, and if necessary, paracenteses) in patients with liver cirrhosis and development of ascites as the first decompensating event. By creating a shunt between the liver …
Automated Applanation Tonometry - Updated
Goldmann Applanation Tonometry (GAT) is considered the clinical gold standard for eye pressure measurements and yet it is known to be a subjective measurement with limited repeatability and limited portability. Another clinical standard for checking eye pressure is known as the pneumotonometer. This method is more objective but not portable. …
Evaluation of Microinvasive Glaucoma Surgery: MINIject® Versus Hydrus® Microstent in Combination With Cataract Surgery
The study aims to investigate postoperative outcomes after two different MIGS implants (MINIject or Hydrus) in combination with cataract surgery for patients with glaucoma.
Low Intraocular Pressure Cataract Surgery With Zeiss Quatera in Glaucoma Patients
You were selected to participate in this observational study because you suffer from glaucoma and cataracts. For the cataract you will have cataract surgery. This study will not affect your treatment, it will only collect data on what is performed before, during and after the procedure. The aim of this …
