The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of a modified suprachoroidal silicone tube (SST) shunt in treating patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudo-exfoliative glaucoma (PXG). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the SST shunt maintain intraocular pressure (IOP) …
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy after one month of treatment with Carvedilol (12.5 mg daily) in primary prophylaxis of digestive haemorrhage due to portal hypertension in cirrhosis, by endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal pressure gradient measurement.
The glycocalyx is a fibrillary lining structure that covers the inner surface of blood vessels. Composed of glycoproteins and polysaccharides, it is an essential determinant of vascular endothelial physiology: it limits coagulation activation and adapts capillary perfusion. Studies have shown glycocalyx alteration in various vascular and autoimmune pathologies such as …
Liver transplantation is a procedure associated with an exceptionally high risk of blood loss. Liver failure, which is the most common indication for transplantation, not only leads to coagulation disorders but also to the development of portal hypertension. As a result, collateral circulation forms within the abdominal venous system, significantly …
This study aims to evaluate the effects of BrudyGlauco, a nutritional supplement containing DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and citicoline, on visual function in people with glaucoma. Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy that can lead to vision loss. Current treatments focus on lowering eye pressure, but there are other pathogenic factors …
In this cohort study, the investigators will test vision screenings in Danish general practice for patients over 70 years of age with minimum one chronic condition. The main outcome is detection of vision impairment and secondary outcome is detection of conditions needing ophthalmologic follow-up but not presenting vision impairment at …
Prospective, observational study to define precipitants and predictors of development of Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure (ACLF) after surgical interventions, allowing to develop a risk stratification for elective procedures in cirrhotic patients. As well as identifying molecular mechanisms of post-interventional ACLF and thus preparing the ground for development of new therapeutic approaches.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of strict blood pressure control versus conventional care in patients with asymptomatic moderate to severe aortic valve stenosis. The study is a randomized (1:1), open label, controlled intervention trial. Hypothesis Strict BP control for 12 months reduces the progression of …
This project will be based on nursing scholar Dorothea Orem's self-care theory, integrating the concept of the \[life essential 8, LE8\] proposed by the American Heart Association, as well as our team's recent research findings. We aim to develop educational materials and tools tailored for this group, termed \[Self-Care Eight …
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible vision loss in people aged 50 years and older worldwide, second only to cataracts. Ultrasound Cyclo Plasty was first proposed as a new minimally invasive technique in the 1980 s. In recent years, many clinical studies at home and abroad have confirmed the …
