The aim of the GLORIA study is to determine whether an altered glucose metabolism (with more hypoglycaemia and glycaemic variability) and altered metabolomics during pregnancy after bariatric surgery contribute to the increased risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes such as small-for-gestational age infants. In addition, the investigators also aim to evaluate …
This is a single-center, prospective, observational, real world study designed to evaluate the effects of peginterferon α-2b(pegabin) combined with nucleoside (acid) analogs (entecavir,ETV tenofovir,TDF tenofovir alafenamide,TAF) on patients after radical surgery for hepatitis B associated hepatocellular carcinoma by collecting data from patients at our hospital
Over the past 10 years, there are a large number of dietary treatments related to the CD, such as specific carbohydrate diet, low Fermentable Oligo-, Di-, Mono-saccharides And Polyols (FODMAP) diet, and allergen-free foods. But there is no consistent conclusion or convincing evidence about the effectiveness. Through the long-term clinical …
This study is to evaluate whether intraoperative fluorescence imaging targeting GPC3 can aid improve the surgical accuracy of hepatocellular carcinoma. The main purposes of this study include: ① To raise the detection rate of hepatocellular carcinoma intraoperatively using the novel NIR-II fluorescence molecular imaging and the GPC-3 targeted fluorophore. ② …
This study will be a prospective, observational study of patients who undergo endoscopic sinus surgery for cystic fibrosis-related chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Individuals who do not undergo surgery but are treated medically for CRS will also be enrolled to serve as a control group. Outcomes analyzed will include pulmonary, quality of …

The aim of this project is to understand the impact of a four week preoperative exercise programme on fitness and metabolic rate and weight before surgery. A multi-site randomised trial sponsored by UCL, recruiting patients awaiting bariatric surgery for obesity at University College London Hospital (UCLH), Whittington Health NHS Trust, …
The purpose of this study is to look at pain management with opioids versus non-opioids after knee arthroscopy. This study will determine 1) whether the most commonly used non-narcotic medications provide pain relief comparable with the most commonly prescribed narcotic medications in patients undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery, and 2) whether …
Patients with chronic pain are often prescribed long-term opioid therapy, despite the serious risks and growing concerns related to opioid use. The Toronto General Hospital has created the world's first multidisciplinary perioperative Transitional Pain Service Program (TPSP) aimed at reducing the incidence and severity of chronic post-surgical pain. The TPSP …
Providing effective analgesia after spinal fusion for idiopathic scoliosis remains a challenge with significant practice variation existing among high volume spine surgery centers. Even in the era of multimodal analgesia, opioids are the primary analgesics used for pain control after pediatric scoliosis surgery, but have multiple known adverse effects. The …
