Ultrasonographic Airway Assessment in Predicting Difficult Laryngoscopy in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Elective Surgery
This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonographic airway examination in predicting difficult laryngoscopy in pediatric patients undergoing elective surgery.
Evaluation of the HPA Axis in Patients With Vasoplegic Syndrome After Cardiac Surgery
Vasoplegic syndrome after cardiac surgery is common and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is characterized by early and prolonged arterial hypotension, with preserved cardiac output and low systemic vascular resistance. Vasoplegic syndrome therefore shares pathophysiological features with septic shock. There are no data in the literature on …
Should we Avoid Performing Invasive Coronary Angiography Before Cardiac Surgery in ACHD Patients?
The goal of this observational study is to compare two pre-operative methods, that is the Invasive Coronary Angiography (ICA), an actual standard diagnostic method, with the Coronary Computer Tomography (CCT) to undestand if the only CCT is sufficent to confirm the presence of a significative coronary disease and so to …
Long Term Cardiovascular Disease Event Risk for Patients Undergoing Major Non-Cardiac Surgery
The goal of this observational study is to learn whether the healthy lifestyle choices made around surgery can influence an individual's long term risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Patients will be observed 1-month prior to and 3-months following surgery to assess their risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Gut Microbiota and Pulmonary Complications After Non Cardiac Elective Surgery in Elderly Patients
This study adopts a combination of retrospective and prospective cohort research methods to explore the composition of preoperative oropharyngeal and gut microbiota in elderly patients undergoing elective upper abdominal surgery, aiming to analyze the correlation between preoperative oropharyngeal and intestinal microbiota composition and metabolite levels and the occurrence of postoperative …
Post-neurosurgical Respiratory Muscle Dysfunction
Respiratory muscle dysfunction may contribute to the development of postoperative pulmonary complications. However, it prevalence in patients receiving neurosurgery is largely unknown. Therefore, in present study, respiratory muscle function (measured by the ultrasound) and their correlation with the post-operative pulmonary complications will be analyzed.
Assessing Levels of Fear and Anxiety and Monitoring Wound Healing Among Patients Who Are About to Undergo Wisdom Tooth Extraction Surgery or Jaw Implant Surgery Under Local Anesthesia Versus General Anesthesia

Impact of Bariatric Surgery in Obese Patients With and Without Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
It has been shown to date that obesity is associated with increased mortality and that weight loss significantly improves cardiovascular risk factors. Among patients receiving bariatric surgery, 30-90% have moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome. Given the strong associations between OSA and cardiometabolic comorbidities, this project is based …
Chronic Widespread Pain After Rapid Weight Loss in Non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic/Latino/a/x Adults

Our primary aim is to investigate the prevalence and severity of Periodonotal Disease (PD) in a population of obese patients. Our secondary objectives are to: Investigate inflammatory biomarkers that have been associated with PD in the saliva of obese patients. Investigate the association of FTO gene (Obesity) polymorphisms with the …
