Impact of RFA on Esophageal Distensibility and Mucosal Impedance
Patients undergoing ablative therapy for management of dysplastic Barrett's Esophagus (BE) will have decreased distensibility over the course of treatment, but improvement in mucosal impedance as BE epithelia is replaced by neosquamous epithelia. This information may lead to further research in predicting therapeutic response and complications. The purpose of this …
Can Gluten/Wheat or Other Foods be Responsible for FMF Attacks
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a chronic hereditary autoinflammatory disease caused by mutations in the MEditerranean FeVer (MEFV) gene which codes for pyrin. Dysfunction of this protein determines an inappropriate response to inflammatory stimuli. The clinical course of the disease is characterized by recurrent episodes of fever and inflammation of …
Pelvic Angioembolization: A Prospective Multi-Institutional Study (Data From All Campuses Will be Used)
The investigator's propose a multicenter prospective observational study to investigate the use of embolization in patients with negative angiogram and to ascertain the optimal level of treatment when the angiogram is positive; non-selective vs. selective embolization.
Can Imaging be an Alternative to Exercise Testing as a Predictor of Surgical Fitness?
This study aims to explore an alternative method for assessing a participant's readiness for surgery, specifically for those undergoing surgery for gastric, oesophageal, or pancreatic cancer. Surgery for these diseases is extremely demanding on the body and surgeons need to be confident that a patient can tolerate the procedure. Traditionally, …
What To-be-discard Biomaterials From ART Cycles Can Tell us About the Treatment Cycle Outcome?
Various to-be-discard material from IVF treatment cycle will be collect and examined, aiming to identify potential reasons of successful outcome or cycle failure.
Comparing Two Surgical Techniques for Building Up the Bone Where a Dental Implant is to Be Placed
The goal of this observational study is to compare two techniques routinely used to increase bone volume in the jaw prior to placing a dental implant, called osseocondensation and osseodensification. The study participants are healthy adults who are planning to get a dental implant. The main questions it aims to …
Can Second Resection for pT1 Bladder Cancer be Avoided After Initial En-Bloc Resection With Negative Safety Margins
The goal of this [ Can second resection for pT1 bladder carcinoma be safely avoided after initial En-Bloc Resection with negative vertical and horizontal safety margins ? is to assess the impact of avoiding re TUR on Recurrence free survival, progression free survival and cancer specific survival in patients with …
Tonometry(1) and Duplex Ultrasound(2) to Predict CV Events in to be Treated Patients With an AAA
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a common vascular disease and associated with risk of rupture, but also with a high cardiovascular (CV) event rate. A key difficulty in AAA is predicting these life-threatening complications, which are strongly linked to vascular health. In 2013, the SMART risk score was developed to …
Lung Injury is One of the Primary Causes of Morbidity and Mortality in Critically Ill Patients. These Patients Will be Monitored for: 1) Immune Cell Activation 2) Blood-based Biomarkers. In Vitro Models Derived From These Samples Will be Treated With Novel Agent PIP-2 to Evaluate Its Efficacy.
Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a condition where high levels of inflammation damage the lung. This is a highly morbid condition with no specific pharmacologic therapies. The investigators posit that ARDS is caused due to an exaggerated activation of immune cells and that blockade …
Can Waveform and Flow Traces From Mechanical Insuflattion:Exsufflation (MI:E) be Used to Identify Laryngeal Responses to MI:E and Thus Optimise Treatment Algorithms?
Objectives To establish if physiotherapists can use the waveform traces from the cough assist machine to work out when patients are having an abnormal airway response to cough assist To establish how cough assist device settings, particularly in breath and cough pressures affect a patient's response to using the cough …
