Evaluation of Patients With Immune Function Abnormalities
This study will evaluate patients with abnormal immune function that results in recurrent or unusual infections or chronic inflammation. This may include inherited conditions, such as X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (XSCID), chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), and leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD), or conditions resulting from outside factors, such as graft-versus-host disease …
Congenital Heart Disease GEnetic NEtwork Study (CHD GENES)
Congenital heart defects (CHD) are the most common major human birth malformation, affecting ~8 per 1,000 live births. CHD are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and are second only to infectious diseases in contributing to the infant mortality rate. Current understanding of the etiology of pediatric cardiovascular disorders is …
Identification of Biomarkers for Patients With Vascular Anomalies
The study will use blood (serum and plasma) and tissue obtained from participants undergoing prescribed surgical resection of vascular anomalies of interest proposed in this study. The study will also use blood (serum and plasma) and tissue collected and stored in a tissue bank maintained by the Department of Hematology/Oncology.
Metabolic Abnormalities, Lifestyle and Diet Pattern in Heart Failure
Metabolic abnormalities (e.g., hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and obesity) and unhealthy lifestyle behaviors (e.g., smoking and drinking habits, sedentary behavior, sleep disorder and physical inactivity) and unhealthy diet (e.g., high sugar and high fat) are major risk factors for cardiovascular diseases mobility and mortality. The investigators sought to estimate the …
Molecular Genetics of Heterotaxy and Related Congenital Heart Defects
The goal of this study is to obtain specimens and data from individuals and their families with heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects in order to clarify the molecular genetics of this disorder. The knowledge gained from the analysis of this information will provide the basis for future genetic counseling …
The Influence of Anatomic Deformities on the Clinical Efficacy in the Patients With Patellar Dislocation
All the data of patients with patellar dislocation will be collected to evaluate the anatomic deformities. The data includes X-ray, CT, MRI examinations, medical records, and physical examination information. Finally, we correlate the anatomic deformities with clinical efficacy. To search for the risk factors that lead to patellar dislocation and …
Umbilical Cord Abnormalities in the Prediction of Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes
The objective of our study is to investigate the association of umbilical cord abnormalities with adverse pregnancy outcomes. The umbilical cord parameters that will be investigated as part of this study include the umbilical cord coiling index (UCI), umbilical cord (UC) diameter, umbilical vein (UV) diameter, UV flow velocity and …
Swiss National Registry of Grown up Congenital Heart Disease Patients
Due to successes in the last decades in pediatric heart surgery and cardiology, 90-95% of the children with congenital heart disease reach adult age.This results in an increasing number of adults or "grown-ups" with congenital heart disease (ACHD or GUCH patients) that require special health care organization and training programmes. …
Early Prediction of Postpartum Glucose Metabolism Abnormalities in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
This project is expected to screen reliable serum markers in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) by using metabolic profiling and lipid profiling clinical high-throughput mass spectrometry technology. We intend to build an early pregnancy prediction model for postpartum glucose metabolism abnormalities of GDM. At the same time, this …
Generation Victoria Cohort 2020s: A Statewide Longitudinal Cohort Study of Victorian Children and Their Parents
Generation Victoria (GenV) is a longitudinal, population-based study of Victorian children and their parents that will bring together data on a wide range of conditions ,exposures and outcomes. GenV blends study-collected, study-enhanced and linked data. It will be multi-purpose, supporting observational, interventional, health services and policy research within the same …
