Longitudinal Study of Xenon-129 MRI Imaging Effects of Cannabis Smoking
This is a longitudinal study of the long-term health impact of cannabis smoking on the lungs. Participants will be followed over a period of 3 years, and impacts of cannabis smoking on the lungs will be measured with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using hyperpolarized xenon-129 gas, pulmonary function tests, exercise …
Primary Ankle Arthrodesis Versus Open Reduction and Internal Fixation for Fragility Fractures Around the Ankle in the Frail Elderly.
This will be a multi-centre randomized controlled trial, with London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC) as the lead site. Elderly patients with complex ankle fractures who meet the inclusion criteria and provide consent will be randomized (through a web-based randomization system) to one of the two treatment arms. One group (Group …
Genetic Frontotemporal Dementia Initiative for Neurodevelopment
This is an international multi-centre cohort study of first and second degree family members of individuals who carry Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) mutations in MAPT, GRN or C9ORF72 repeat expansions for youths between the ages 9-17.
Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy in Adult Surgery
Brain injury is a serious problem after cardiac surgery. Brain injury can become evident in the form of stroke and cognitive dysfunction after surgery. The current neuromonitoring technique used is unable to monitor the region of the brain that is most susceptible to injury. This study aims to use a …
Cardiac Tissue Sodium Assessment in CKD Patients Using Sodium MRI
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is prevalent worldwide and affects around 10% of people living in developed health economies. As the kidney loses its function in patients with CKD, the kidneys are unable to filter toxins out of the blood as efficiently as those of healthy individuals. Arguably, sodium (salt) is …
(3D) Ultrasound Imaging Liver and Kidney
This study is to assess the addition of 3D ultrasound guidance during standard care ablation or biopsies of liver or kidney tumours. 3D ultrasound only differs from conventional 2D ultrasound in that the ultrasound transducer is mounted on a special assembly that moves the transducer in precise, stepped movements while …
VOICE-Early Response to Vedolizumab and Ustekinumab in Participants With Crohn's Disease: A Prospective Observational Study
The primary aim of this study is to explore the time course of response to Vedolizumab in participants with CD as measured by the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pain Interference-short form (SF), as well as other PROMIS domain SFs (fatigue, anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance, physical function, and ability …
Changes in Postural Stability Following THA for OA
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common surgery that eases pain, restores functional movement, and improves the overall quality of life in people with severe hip osteoarthritis (OA). Unfortunately, problems with postural stability, commonly known as balance, are still noticed in people even years after the surgery. These postural stability …
Evaluation of the Transitional and Lifelong Care Program
The population cared for in the Transitional and Lifelong Care (TLC) clinic is youth and adults with childhood-onset disability, of which the large majority are adults with brain-based, neurodevelopmental conditions such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida and developmental disability. The TLC program was created to address the health inequities that …
Novel Pulmonary Imaging of Lung Structure and Function in E-cigarette Smokers
This is a longitudinal study of the long-term health impact of e-cigarette smoking on the lungs. Participants will be followed over a period of 5 years, and impacts of e-cigarette smoking on the lungs will be measured with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using hyperpolarized xenon-129 gas, pulmonary function tests, exercise …
