Development of a Clinical Decision Support System With Artificial Intelligence for Cancer Care
Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSSs) to augment clinical care and decision making. These are platforms which aim to improve healthcare delivery by enhancing medical decisions with targeted clinical knowledge, patient information, and other health information. In view of the benefit of developing a CDSS, we sought to develop an alternative …
Pan-tumor MRD Study
The purpose of this observational study is to collect clinical information, blood, and tumor tissue samples from participants diagnosed with stage I, stage II, or operable stage III cancer in select solid tumors. The information collected will be used to develop tests to better understand cancer, for example, to improve …
Mayo Clinic Upper Digestive Disease Survey
The Mayo Clinic Conduit Report Card Questionnaires have been created in order to have a consistent evaluation tools for patients undergoing esophageal reconstruction or treatment or patients that are experiencing an upper digestive disease in order to standardize and validate outcome measures. Data will be used to establish the validation …
Improve the Strategies of Endoscopic and Interventional Treatment of Gastroesophageal Hemorrhage in Portal Hypertension
Endoscopic esophageal variceal ligation combined with gastric variceal embolization using tissue glue is currently the first-choice method for preventing rebleeding in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension. However, the rebleeding rate remains relatively high. Factors such as extra-luminal vascular bundles in the esophagus and stomach walls, and portosystemic shunts significantly …
Evaluation of Cell Changes in Blood and Tissue in Cancers of the Lung, Esophagus and Lung Lining
Background Chromatin is is the structural building block of a chromosome. It is found inside the nucleus of the cell and consists of a complex of DNA and protein. Cancers of the lung, pleura (lung lining) and esophagus show profound changes in chromatin structure that may affect the course of …
Metachronic Brain Metastases After Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer (METABREC)
Esophagectomy is the cornerstone of the curative treatment of esophageal carcinoma. Despite this treatment, patients can suffer from locoregional or distant metastatic disease and only a very selected group of patients can be cured: mostly those with recurrence in one single organ. Brain metastases are rare after esophagectomy for cancer, …
Biomarkers in Patients With Respiratory Tract Dysplasia or Lung Cancer, Head and Neck Cancer, or Aerodigestive Tract Cancer and in Normal Volunteers
RATIONALE: Studying samples of sputum and tissue in the laboratory from patients with dysplasia or cancer may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at biomarkers in patients with …
Volatile Organic Compounds as Breath Biomarkers in Squamous Oesophageal Neoplasms
Oesophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is a cancer of the food pipe that affects around 2000 patients in the UK every year. It is often detected at an advanced stage, resulting in poor survival (5-year survival less than 20%). Early detection can improve survival (5-year survival >70%). Therefore, early detection …
China Early Esophageal Cancer Cohort
With the development of endoscopy, more and more patients with superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) receive endoscopic resection rather than traditional surgery. However, there is still no complete consensus on the risk factors for lymph node metastasis (LNM) and recurrence of ESCC after endoscopic resection. The existing curative resection …
BJH-SDS Validation of the German Translation
The first object of the study is the validation of a translation of the Barnes-Jewish Hospital Stroke Dysphagia Screen with determination of sensitivity, specificity, interrater reliability (especially between different professional groups) and criterion validity. If the German translation proves to be suitable, it will also be validated on general neurological …
