Comparing Hypothermic Temperatures During Hemiarch Surgery
Hypothermic circulatory arrest is an important surgical technique, allowing complex aortic surgeries to be performed safely. Hypothermic circulatory arrest provides protection to cerebral and visceral organs, but may result in longer cardiopulmonary bypass times during surgery, increased risks of bleeding, inflammation, and neuronal injury. To manage these consequences, a trend …
Postprandial Glucose Handing in Contraceptive and IUD Users
Goals: The long-term use of hormonal birth control has been shown to effect glucose handling, or blood sugar regulation, and potentially lead to insulin resistance which increases a person's risk for metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. The goal of this study is to investigate how the body handles …
Comparison of Medical RESCUE Strategies for Patients With Steroid-refractory Acute Severe Ulcerative Colitis

Investigating the Role of ATP Production by Airway Epithelium in Patients With Refractory and Unexplained Chronic Cough (RCC/UCC).
Chronic cough is a common troublesome symptom which has a global prevalence of approximately 10%, but with wide variations across continents. Patients with refractory and unexplained chronic cough (RCC/UCC) often exhibit dysregulated vagal pathways, necessitating a neuronal biomarker for targeted treatment. ATP, involved in the ATP/P2X3 pathway, may serve as …
Safety Study in Subjects ≥ 12 Years of Age With Hereditary Angioedema Switching to Garadacimab
This study is designed to evaluate the safety after switching to garadacimab from another prophylactic hereditary angioedema (HAE) treatment (marketed kallikrein \[KK\] inhibitor or plasma-derived C1-esterase inhibitor \[pdC1INH\]prophylactic) when administered once monthly for approximately 3 months in participants aged greater than or equal to (\>=) 12 years with HAE.
