Evaluation of High Dose Prednisolone Pharmacokinetics in the Acute and Chronic Setting
This is a pilot study to investigate serum prednisolone profiles in: Patients on high doses of prednisolone for any inflammatory disorder, both in the acute and chronic setting. Patients stepping up from or down to prednisolone therapy in association with a course of high dose methyl-prednisolone or dexamethasone. The study …
Cold Snare Polypectomy for Duodenal Adenomas in Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
The purpose of this study is to collect prospective observational data regarding patients with diagnosed Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) undergoing cold snare polypectomy for duodenal adenomas
Site and Mechanism(s) of Expiratory Airflow Limitation in COPD, Emphysema and Asthma-COPD Overlap
The purpose of this cross-sectional, observational study is to evaluate the site and mechanism(s) for expiratory airflow limitation in chronic, treated, current or former smokers (>15 pack years) with COPD, Emphysema, and Asthma-COPD Overlap with mild to severe expiratory airflow limitation. Treatment may include short and long acting inhaled beta2agonists, …
Immunological Reaction of the Recipient After Cold-stored Saphenous Venous Allograft (Bioprotec)
The study investigators propose to perform a blood test before and after allograft placement in all patients receiving a cold-stored venous allografts at the University Hospital of Nîmes to study the occurrence of FVFA-related ASD in these patients. The aim of this work is to characterize a possible immune reaction …
Environmental Pollutants in COPD and Lung Cancer
Epidemiological studies describe a statistically significant correlation between hospitalization rate and exposure to environmental pollutants such as atmospheric particulates (PM10 and PM2.5) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). Indeed, they induced the release of inflammation mediators and oxidative stress, involved in remodeling and destruction of the alveolar parenchyma, in turn associated …
Cryopreservation of Ovarian Tissue: Reimplantation Rate and Effects on Ovarian Function
Premature ovarian failure (POI) is a clinical syndrome defined by the loss of ovarian activity before age 40. POI is characterized by amenorrhea or oligomenorrhea with elevated gonadotropins, low estradiol and serious consequences on fertility. The prevalence of POI in the general population is about 1%. In recent years, the …
Non-contact Proactive Remote Monitoring of COPD Exacerbations
The goal of this observational study is to determine if a COPD exacerbation can be detected early in its onset. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can an exacerbation be detected before the person recognizes they are unwell? What are the biological signals which provide the best indication …
Prediction of COPD Severity Using Electrical Impedance Tomography
The purpose of this study is to predict the CT visual score of emphysema with EIT-based parameters, in order to provide a non-invasive and convenient method for the evaluation of lung structure and physiological and pathological progression of COPD.
Commercially Available Cannabis Products for Immune Support
This study will be a prospective observation of the use of commercially available hemp and cannabis products marketed for immune support.
Diaphragmatic Function and Respiratory Drive in OSA and COPD
This cross-sectional observational study aims to assess the diaphragmatic morphofunction and respiratory drive characteristics among patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), overlap syndrome (OS), and healthy controls. Using ultrasound imaging and surface diaphragm electromyography (EMGdi), the study will explore group differences in diaphragmatic morphology, function, …
