This trial will evaluate the safety and IOP -lowering efficacy of administering an iDose TR (travoprost intracameral implant) in conjunction with cataract surgery compared to cataract surgery alone
Right ventricular (RV) failure is recognized to worsen patient outcomes in the setting of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF)-related pulmonary hypertension (PH), yet the investigators fall short in trying to identify and treat it. The current proposal will (1) determine the best clinical indicators of intrinsic RV myocyte …
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension \[CTEPH\] is caused by pulmonary emboli that have enlarged in pulmonary arteries and have become organized into the vessel wall. Many patients with CTEPH are treated with balloon pulmonary angioplasty \[BPA\] which mechanically opens the narrow pulmonary arteries. It is unclear how much downstream functional pulmonary …
This trial is a pilot-scale, single institution randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of administering dapagliflozin for cardiovascular risk reduction in the postpartum period. The target population is patients at high risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes within five years post-delivery. Eligible participants will be randomized to …
Portal vein thrombosis is defined as non-tumoural obstruction of the portal vein or one of its branches. Its incidence is 0.7 to 2.7 per 100,000 patient-years in the general population, and 4.6 per 100 patient-years in patients with cirrhosis. Histological modificaitions fo the portal vein wall and haemostatic changes have …
In this study, the investigators compared the improvement of liver reserve function related indicators in patients with liver cirrhosis after laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection. To determine whether surgical treatment can help enhance postoperative liver reserve function and improve patient prognosis.
The open abdomen can occur as a result of various diseases. After infections of the abdomen, compartment syndromes or traumata, it is essential for survival (1). This condition of the open abdomen lasts from days to months. Within a very short time, the fascia and abdominal wall structures retract in …
Background Handgrip strength , a core indicator of muscle function, has been confirmed to be significantly associated with the clinical prognosis of patients with liver cirrhosis. However, no studies have explored its correlation with portal venous hemodynamics. Objective The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of Handgrip …
Background Intact corneal epithelium is important for the defense on the ocular surface, and the function of limbal stem cells is crucial to maintain its integrity. Certain chronic eye diseases, such as glaucoma, require long-term medication use. However, glaucoma patients often exhibit corneal punctate erosions and ocular surface inflammation. In …
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 …
