RCT: Mako Medial Unicondylar Knee Arthroplasty vs Oxford Unicondylar Knee Arthroplasty
The overall aim of this prospective, randomised, single-blinded, controlled trial is to compare clinical outcomes and accuracy of implant positioning in Mako robotic UKA versus jig-based Oxford UKA with navigation control. Patients receiving the Mako robotic UKA (Stryker Ltd) will form the investigation group and those undergoing the jig-based Oxford …
Evaluation of Resection Techniques for Pancreatic Tumors
The objective of this study is to compare open and minimally invasive pancreatic and liver resection techniques and analyze the different outcome variables from the clinical standpoint. The plan is to investigate patient survival, length of stay, complication rates, operative time, transfusion rate, 30 and 90-day readmission rate, and hospital …
Development and Clinical Validation of Early-stage Lung Cancer Prognostic Kit
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide in spite of the advanced progresses in medication and low-dose CT screening. The early-stage lung cancer accounts for less than 50% of newly diagnosed lung cancer in Taiwan, even in stage IB patients proximately 30% still suffer from recurrence and …
Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in Type 2 Diabetic Patients Undergoing CABG
This randomized, double-blind, prospective clinical trial aims to investigate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on myocardial protection in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Perioperative myocardial injury remains a significant concern during CABG, particularly in high-risk patients such as those …
Organoid Models of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
A promising tool to elucidate the molecular characteristics of HCC are patient-derived organoids (PDOs), three-dimensional cultures of cells that self-organise according to tissue-specific patterns and can be used to test the susceptibility of a specific tumour to anticancer agents. In this study, PDOs for HCC will be developed that closely …
Inter- and Intra-Observer Reliability of the Iowa Level of Assistance Scale and the Effect of Staff Retraining
The aim of this study is to evaluate, in routine clinical practice, the inter- and intra-observer reliability of the Iowa Level of Assistance (ILoA) scale, which is regularly used to assess functional recovery in orthopedic patients. A secondary objective is to investigate the impact of a structured retraining program for …
Swiss Spinal Tumor Registry (Swiss-STR)
The Swiss Spinal Tumor Registry is a prospective REDCap-based registry, collecting data of surgically treated patients with primary and metastatic tumors of the spine.
Impact of Perioperative Dexmedetomidine and Esketamine on Postoperative Quality of Recovery
For patients after surgery, quality of recovery has significant impacts on the prognosis, quality of life, and rational allocation of medical resources. Dexmedetomidine and esketamine have each been used during the perioperative period and improved postoperative analgesia and subjective sleep quality. This 2x2 factorial trial is designed to explore the …
Evaluation of Lacrifill
Dry Eye Disease is defined as "a multifactorial disease of the tears and ocular surface that results in symptoms of discomfort, visual disturbance, and tear film instability with potential damage to the ocular surface. It is accompanied by increased osmolarity of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface.' …
Surgical Versus Percutaneous Revascularization in Patients With Reduced Left Ventricular Function (STICH 3.0-NL)
This randomized multicenter trial compares coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in 358 patients with ischemic left ventricular dysfunction and multivessel coronary disease. The study evaluates differences in survival, major cardiovascular events, and quality of life over 4 years, and contributes to the international STICH 3.0 …
