The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of using a reduced-intensity condition (RIC) regimen with umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT), double cord UCBT, matched unrelated donor (MUD) bone marrow transplant (BMT) or peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) in patients with non-malignant disorders that are amenable to …
Obesity and overweight are rising in Chinese populations, where metabolic risks begin at lower BMI thresholds than in Western cohorts. Many individuals with overweight or mild-to-moderate obesity are ineligible or unwilling to undergo bariatric surgery due to invasiveness and risk. Endoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies offer minimally invasive alternatives but …
In this study the investigators will quantitate hepatic mitochondrial fluxes in T2D patients with NAFL and NASH before and after 16-weeks treatment with the insulin sensitizer pioglitazone
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a hormone that helps regulate blood glucose levels through improved insulin sensitivity and release of insulin from the pancreas, control hunger, induce satiety and plays a role in the metabolic health of a person. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) have been shown to be effective in …
Medications used after transplant to prevent rejection are associated with many side effects. Tacrolimus side effects include kidney dysfunction; tremor, headaches, difficulty sleeping, change in sensation (legs), seizure, or confusion; high blood pressure; anemia, or low blood cell counts; diabetes; abnormal cholesterol and weight gain. The investigators want to use …
The objective of the study is to evaluate an ultraportable ultrasound device, Hepatoscope, for the non-invasive assessment of hepatic steatosis in patients with metabolic-dysfunction associated liver diseases (MASLD), by comparing its measurements with current diagnostic modalities, such as MRI-PDFF.
The aim of the study is to compare the 6 months clinical outcome of the treatment with a single injection of Homologous PRP versus single injection of placebo (saline solution) in the infiltrative treatment of knee osteoarthritis in over 65 years old patients. The evaluation will be performed through clinical, …
The goal of this protocol is to expand access for patients who lack a fully HLA (Human leukocyte antigen) matched sibling donor and who are candidates for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). These patients have a serious or immediately life-threatening disease for which HSCT is indicated. These patients are …
The aim of this study is to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of endoscopic anastomosis of sleeve gastrectomy to ileum with a lumen apposing metal stent (LAMS) after a failed sleeve gastrectomy.
Type 2 diabetes (T2D), especially when associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) is at high risk to develop heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF), and the specific impact of T2D+MS in cardiac function impairment is usually known as "diabetic cardiomyopathy" (DC). …
