The Role of Ultrasonography in Pregnancy in the Study of Fetal Central Nervous System Malformations
The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the correlation between new ultrasound patterns and fetal central nervous system (CNS) malformations.
Evaluation of Clinical Outcomes of Unruptured bAVMs Treated With Medical Management Alone Based on Multimodal CT
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of multimodal CT in evaluating and predicting different clinical outcomes in patients with unruptured brain arteriovenous malformations with medical management alone. This study will be undertaken in the following aspects: Morphological, structural and imaging histological signal analysis based on multimodal …
Neuroradiology Assesses Chiari Malformation's Impact on Airways, Cranial Base, and Sleep Disorders in Children.
The severity of sleep disorders in patients with Chiari malformations can vary. The investigators propose to establish a correlation between the severity of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and the quantitative neuroradiological data of the airways, cranial base foramina, and posterior cranial fossae
Artificial Intelligence Algorithm for the Screening of Abnormal Fetal Brain Findings at First Trimester Ultrasound Scan
Visualization of the posterior fossa brain spaces, their spatial relationship and measurements can be obtained in the midsagittal view of fetal head, the same used for NT measurement (9), and plays an important role in the early diagnosis of neural tube defects, such as open spinal dysraphism (5), and posterior …
A Prospective Natural History Study of Lymphatic Anomalies
Background The lymphatic system is a network of vessels that carry a clear fluid called lymph through the body. Problems in the lymphatic system can cause pain, fluid buildup, and issues with immunity. There is much researchers do not understand about lymphatic anomalies. In this natural history study, they will …
Scottish Advanced Fetal Research Study
In-utero exposure to drugs and chemicals through maternal smoking, alcohol use, drug abuse, prescription medicines and occupational/lifestyle exposures is widespread. Such exposures can alter fetal development and programming, leading to the effects becoming "locked in" from birth and causing long-term adverse consequences for the individual. These include costly and widespread …
Diaphragmatic Hernia Research & Exploration, Advancing Molecular Science
The goal of this study is to identify genes that convey susceptibility to congenital diaphragmatic hernia in humans. The identification of such genes, and examination of their structure and function, will enable a delineation of molecular pathogenesis and, ultimately, prevention or treatment of congenital diaphragmatic hernia. There are many different …
Genome Medical Sequencing for Genome Discovery
Background A number of rare inherited diseases affect only a few patients, and the genetic causes of these conditions remain unknown. Researchers are studying the use of a new technology called genome sequencing to learn which gene or genes cause these conditions. Understanding the genes that cause these diseases is …
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 …
Diagnosis and Management of Intrauterine Growth Restriction and Congenital Anomalies
The purpose of this prospective cohort study is to build a large platform that includes clinical information (prenatal diagnosis and postnatal follow-up data) and biological specimen banks of fetuses/infants with IUGR or congenital anomalies, which provide vital support and research foundation for accurate diagnosis, precision treatment and meticulous management.
