We propose a multi-center randomized trial to test the primary hypothesis that tranexamic acid is superior to placebo on blood loss in adult orthotopic liver transplantation within the initial 24 hours and that tranexamic acid is non-inferior to placebo for a composite of thrombotic events within the initial 7 postoperative …
The goal of this observational study is to create an electronic registry of patients diagnosed with Advanced Heart Failure or Heart Transplant, starting from 01/01/1985 and to assess the incidence of Advanced Heart Failure and Heart Transplant, and characterize patients affected by the first or undergoing the second procedure, starting …
In clinical nephrology, the search for urinary, blood and tissue biomarkers of specific kidney diseases is an important goal. In recent years, the use of these biomarkers has made it possible to diagnose many renal diseases that affect the native kidney. In some cases, biomarkers may be useful in determining …
The goal of this pragmatic embedded open-label, 2 x 2 factorial phase II randomized controlled trial is to evaluate strategies to improve COVID-19 booster and influenza vaccine immunogenicity in people living with immunocompromising conditions (PLIC). The main questions it aims to answer are: Is co-administration of seasonal inactivated influenza vaccine …
Within few years the peritoneal membrane of adult peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients undergoes substantial morphological transformation, including progressive fibrosis, vasculopathy and neoangiogenesis. Ultrafiltration capacity steadily declines and ultimately results in PD failure. In children, peritoneal biopsies demonstrating PD associated alterations have not yet been obtained. They, however, should be particularly …
With stress echo (SE) 2020 study, a new standard of practice in stress imaging was developed and disseminated: the ABCDE protocol for functional testing within and beyond CAD. ABCDE protocol was the fruit of SE 2020, and is the seed of SE 2030, which is articulated in 12 projects: 1-SE …
The Canadian Australasian Randomized Trial of Screening Kidney Transplant Candidates for Coronary Artery Disease (CARSK) will test the hypothesis that eliminating the regular use of non-invasive screening tests for CAD AFTER waitlist activation is not inferior to regular (i.e., annual) screening for CAD during wait-listing for the prevention of Major …
The RECOVER study, titled Cardiac Rehabilitation Cohort at the Medicine Campus Davos for Exploration of Recovery, is a prospective, non-interventional, monocentric cohort study conducted at the Hochgebirgsklinik Davos. The study is sponsored by Medicine Campus Davos AG and the Kühne Foundation, with an estimated start date in July 2025 and …
Managing patients with renal failure requires an understanding of the molecular mechanisms that lead to its occurrence (i.e. upstream of the disease), its worsening and its persistence (i.e. downstream), while also specifying the risk of worsening renal failure (risk stratification, intolerance to the treatment or complications (infectious, metabolic, cardiovascular, cancer…). …
The study aims to identify new diagnostic and prognostic markers for CMP that can help predict disease progression. In particular, the study will focus on microRNAs (miRNAs) and spatial transcriptomics, which are emerging techniques that may provide insights into the underlying disease mechanisms. By understanding these markers, the investigators hope …
