Quantitative Ultrasound Techniques for Diagnosis of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is the most common liver disease in Western countries, due in large part to its association with type 2 diabetes and obesity. The more advanced form of this disease is known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). If left untreated, NASH can evolve to cirrhosis, the late stage …
Radiation OmisSion in PAtients With CLinically Node Negative Breast Cancer Undergoing Lumpectomy
To de-escalate radiation therapy in women with breast cancer.
Comparison of Neuromuscular Recovery at the Hand and Foot
Gold standard for neuromuscular blockade evaluation is accelerometry in three dimensions at the thumb. There are many times that measurement at the hand can be falsely under-estimated intraoperatively secondary to constriction of the upper extremities. We believe that installing the same accelerometer at the first toe will give us similar …
Early-life MRI Biomarkers of Longer-term Respiratory Morbidity in Infants Born Extremely Preterm (EMBLEM)
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common, major complication of premature birth, associated with developmental and health consequences that continue into adulthood. Prediction of who will have these problems is challenging using traditional definitions of disease. It is believed that underdevelopment and injury occur in both lung tissue and the blood …
NIRS in Congenital Heart Defects - Correlation With Echocardiography
Neonatal patients with congenital heart defects (CHD) have changing physiology in the context of transitional period. Patients with CHD are at risk of low perfusion status or abnormal pulmonary blood flow. Near infrared spectroscopy has been used in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) to measure end-organ perfusion. The investigator plan …
Postnatal Steroids Effects on Cardiac Function in Extremely Preterm
Hypothesis/Study question In infants born at less than 29 weeks of estimated gestational age, what are the effects of dexamethasone use on cardiac structure/performance and lung water content? Study objectives To measure effects before and after dexamethasone administration on cardiac structure/performance will be evaluated by using the M-mode technique (Devereux …
Exploratory Observational Prospective Study in Neonatal and Pediatric Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia
CDH is associated with lung hypoplasia, pulmonary hypertension, and left ventricular hypoplasia. Use of new STE techniques (heart ultrasound) showed that CDH newborns have decreased LV size and function, potentially explaining the non-response to iNO, and that these cardiac findings were associated with poor outcomes. Our hypothesis: CDH newborns persist …
Pulmonary Vascular Disease and Cardiac Performance in Extreme Preterm Infants
Pulmonary vascular disease and cardiac performance in extreme preterm infants: A prospective cross-sectional study
Societal Burden Associated With Type 1 Diabetes in Canada
The purpose of this observational study is to estimate the burden of T1D on caregivers of patient with T1D in terms of work productivity, healthcare resource utilization and quality of life.
Optic Nerve Sheath Ultrasound in Giant Cell Arteritis
The Sonographic Assessment of the Optic Nerve Sheath in Giant Cell Arteritis (SONIC-GCA) study will evaluate the performance of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), measured via ultrasound, to diagnose and monitor GCA. SONIC-GCA builds upon our previous pilot studies and will answer the following questions: What is the performance …
