Gallbladder Infundibulum as a Guide for Ductal Identification.
Introduction: Bile duct injury (BDI) is a catastrophic complication of cholecystectomy, and misidentification of the cystic anatomy is considered to be the main cause. Although several techniques have been developed to prevent BDI, such as the "critical view of safety", the infundibular technique, the rates remain higher during laparoscopic cholecystectomy …
The Experience in Neurorehabilitation Setting: a Qualitative Study
In this exploratory qualitative study with a hermeneutic phenomenological approach, we will describe and understand the experience of treatment and hospitalization in hospitalized people suffering from stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease and patients post-neurosurgery for oncological causes. Patients will be interviewed in a semi-structured manner and sampling will take place …
A Novel Approach Utilizing Organ Specific Age Proteomics
This study compares changes in P16INK4A expression and plasma proteomic signatures of specific organ age pre- and post-chemotherapy in women treated with adjuvant chemotherapy for early-stage breast cancer. It aims to determine if biological and accelerated immune aging, assessed using T cells from peripheral blood, represents aging in different organs. …
Colorectal Surgery, a New Robotic Platform (Hugo Ras)
A novel robotic platform -Hugo Robotic Assisted Surgery (RAS)- has been introduced with several innovations that may prove advantageous for surgeons such as an open console and four interchangeable modular arms. Our study aims to evaluate the safety, efficacy and potential impact of this platform in the surgical treatment of …
Screen CardRen - A Cross-sectional Observational Cohort Study
In this single-centre, cross-sectional study, the investigators aim to assess the prevalence of asymptomatic echocardiographic structural and functional cardiac abnormalities in adult CKD patients with additional cardiovascular risk factors. Furthermore, with the use of Olink technology, analyses of the plasma proteome will be performed to identify potential protein pathways associated …
A Real World Study of Respiratory Critical Disease.
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a form of acute diffuse lung injury caused by various etiologies, which rapidly progresses to acute respiratory failure. It is characterized by a sudden onset and severe clinical course. Globally, ARDS affects approximately 3 million individuals each year, accounting for about 10% of admissions …
Reconstructions of Chest Wall Defects: a Retrospective Study
Patients requiring thoracic reconstruction often suffer from numerous comorbidities, such as obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases. The clinical picture of these patients must be carefully stabilized in the preoperative period since the listed diseases are associated with a poor reconstructive outcome. Furthermore, it is necessary to preoperatively …
Asylumseekers Experiencing Paranoid Delusions: A Virtual Reality Study
Rationale: Ethnic minorities and asylumseekers have a two- to three-times increased risk of psychosis compared to people from their host country. Among patients experiencing psychosis, paranoid delusions are a common symptom. Diagnostic assessments are challenging in this group because of language differences and sociocultural differences in interpersonal social behavior and …
Clinical Performance Evaluation of a Diagnostic Ultrasound System
Subjects who are required to undergo transesophageal echocardiography according to the current clinical practice standards will be eligible for enrollment. Subjects will be screened for enrollment in this study against the inclusion and exclusion criteria. After successful screening and enrollment of subjects, the investigators will first use the investigational device …
Outcomes of a Novel Technique Minimal Scar Mastectomy
Nipple sparing mastectomy is oncologically safe and has a good cosmetic outcome. However, nipple sparing mastectomy was conventionally performed with reconstruction. Minimal scar mastectomy (MSM) is a novel technique which could allow women, with non-ptotic breasts, who do not want reconstruction, to conserve their nipple areolar complex (NAC) and avoid …
