Automated Fetal Cardiac Function in Babies Affected by Heart Diseases
The goal of this international multicentre prospective observational cohort study with a nested case-control study is to test some automated fetal heart functional parameters in healthy babies compared to those affected by a congenital heart condition. The main questions it aims to answer are: If there is a significant difference …
Constructive Variations of Classic Orthopedic Braces for Spinal Deformity During Growth
The construction methods of the same brace vary on an experiential basis according to who builds them, the prescriber, the characteristics of the patients and also the innovations introduced to ensure greater comfort for the patient. The closure of the brace or the way in which the two shells are …
Neurocognitive Abnormalities in Stimulant Abuse Among High-Risk Women
Substance use disorders and psychopathy are serious and costly mental health issues. Psychopathy is known to be associated with aberrant moral decision making and there is considerable interest in determining whether substance use disorders lead to impairments in these same cognitive processes. Recent large-scale research initiatives in forensic settings have …
Study of Residuals Deformities After Diaphyseal Femoral Fracture in Children Treated by Skin Traction
Diaphyseal femoral fracture in children <6 years old are treated by the skin traction technique. As demonstrated by numerous studies, given the significant potential for bone remodeling in young children, remodeling (excluding rotational disorder) allows anatomical correction. The aim of this study is to confirm, via EOS imaging, the absence …
Respiratory and Psychological Impact of Elective Surgery of Congenital Lung Malformations
The absence of surgery of Congenital lung malformations (CLMs), if it avoids a stressfull event, is accompanied by a "medicalization" of the child, which will be regularly followed up in a specialized medical and surgical environment. The persistent risk of complication, albeit low, is likely to induce over-protective parental behaviours, …
Natural History of Familial Cerebral Cavernous Malformations: the CCM_Italia Cohort Study
Patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic familial cerebral cavernous malformation (fCCM) will be included. The goal of this observational study is to learn about the long-term evolution of this condition. The subjects enrolled will be followed for two years and will undergo an annual neurological examination with the recording of clinical …
Prospective Evaluation of Complex Adult Spinal Deformity (CAD) Treated With Minimally Invasive Surgery
Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients treated with minimally invasive approach, including radiographic and clinical outcomes, surgical and postoperative complications, risk factors for and revision surgery rates, and the role of standard work to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical …
Visual Function Abnormalities in Strabismus and Amblyopia and Response to Therapy
Amblyopia and strabismus are characterized by a reduction in visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, grating acuity, vernier acuity, reading difficulties and binocular visual function deficits. Treated patients have residual visual function deficits. The purpose of the current study is to quantify various visual functions in amblyopic and strabismic participants at baseline, …
Clinical Readiness Skin Punch Biopsy Sample Collections
This is a clinical readiness skin punch biopsy sample collection study. This will allow to reduce manufacturing time when patients are identified as eligible to receive product under separate interventional treatment protocol.
Characterization and Support of Neurodevelopmental Disorders Associated With Congenital Cardiac malfoRmations - Neonatal
Congenital heart defects (CHD), as the leading cause of birth defects, affect 12 million people globally and approximately 41,000 newborns each year in Europe. CHD presents a significant public health concern due to its association with high morbidity and mortality rates across the lifespan. Over 50% of infants born with …
