Ajuvant Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy in Patients With Esophageal, Esophageal- Gastric Junction Cancer
Surgery with or without neoadjuvant therapy is usually used as the treatment for resectable esophageal cancer or esophageal- gastric junction cancer. Patients who have a poor response to neoadjuvant therapy and have an incomplete (R1) resection or have metastatic lymph nodes in the resection specimen (N+) are especially at risk …
CPAP or BiPAP for Motion Mitigation During Radiotherapy
When using highly conformal radiotherapy techniques, such as proton therapy, a controlled breathing pattern and a minimal breathing amplitude could greatly benefit the treatment of mobile tumors. This reduction in tumor motion may be achieved with the use of a ventilator that is able to regulate and modulate the breathing …
Prophylactic Endoscopic Variceal Ligation in Patients With High-risk Esophageal Varices Receiving Atezo/Bev for HCC
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether prophylactic endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) can prevent esophageal variceal bleeding in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) receiving atezolizumab and bevacizumab (Atezo/Bev) therapy. The study will also assess the safety of prophylactic EVL in this population. The main question it aims to …
The Effect of Chronic Stress on Efficacy of ICIs in Esophageal Cancer Patients (STRESS-ESCA Study)
Chronic stress refers to a special emotional state caused by unexpected stress for a long time, with an increasing incidence in the population. It can cause the body to release hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. Tumor patients often experience changes such as psychological and emotional abnormalities, decreased quality of …
Effectivity of TongueFit, A Novel Orofacial Manometer, as Tongue Strength and Endurance Therapy in Children With Dysphagia
The tongue plays a crucial role in the swallowing process, and weakness in its muscles can lead to difficulties in bolus control, mastication, bolus transport, and oral residue. Reduced tongue strength is closely associated with dysphagia, a swallowing disorder that impairs the movement of food or liquids from the mouth, …
Masseter and Rectus Femoris Ultrasound for Dysphagia and Sarcopenia in Critically Ill Patients
Dysphagia and sarcopenia are common complications in critically ill patients and are associated with increased morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, nutritional complications, and poorer clinical outcomes. Muscle ultrasound is a non-invasive bedside technique that may provide objective information on muscle mass and help identify patients at increased risk of these conditions. This …
The Thoracic Peri-Operative Integrative Surgical Care Evaluation Trial - Stage III
Despite enormous advances in thoracic surgery and oncology, two critical issues concern patients undergoing curative-intent surgery for lung, gastric and esophageal cancer: first, a majority (\~60%) of patients experience minor and major adverse events occurring during and in the days following surgery; second, patients worry about the significant risk of …
A Study of 2141-V11 in People With Esophageal, Gastric, or Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma
The purpose of this study is to find out whether adding the drug 2141-V11 to standard treatment (anti-PD-1 immunotherapy with or without 5-FU) is a safe treatment approach for participants with advanced esophageal, gastric, or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma
Functional Changes in the Stomach and Esophagus After One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass- OAGB
Evaluation of the functional changes in the stomach and esophagus of patients undergoing One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB)
Effects of Bright-light Exposure Combined With Specific Exercise Training (BEST) Program in Patients With Cancer
This study plans to investigate the effectiveness of six-week light exposure combined with an exercise training program on improving sleep-wake rhythm, physical and mental symptoms, quality of life, one-year recurrence rate, and one-year survival rate of patients with lung and esophageal cancer.
