This is a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized, phase II clinical trial conducted in Canada. The purpose of the study is to determine the remission rate of acalabrutinib in combination with R-CHOP in patients with previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma prior to autologous stem cell transplantation. This study is composed of 2 …
Pressure Muscle Index and Threshold of Over-assistance During Pressure Support Ventilation
Pressure support ventilation (PSV) is used to assist the breathing of the intubated patient with some pressure from the ventilator. This support aims at avoiding excessive inspiratory effort, while ensuring a certain degree of training of the patient's inspiratory muscle. Avoiding both minimal and excessive assistance is thus important for …

Intravenous vs Oral Acetaminophen in Postoperative Hip Fracture Adult Patients
The INTACT-HIP trial study will evaluate feasibility of conducting a randomized, double-blinded controlled trial comparing postoperative treatment with intravenous (IV) acetaminophen versus oral acetaminophen, in older adults undergoing hip fracture surgery. The results of this feasibility trial will be used to inform designing a larger, multi-center, randomized controlled trial to …
Life Following Excision of Neuroendocrine Tumors
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), often seen as "chronic cancer" present a survival paradox with relatively prolonged patient survival despite active disease. Treatment strategies emphasize management over cure, integrating tumor control with quality of life (QOL) considerations. Surgery is a cornerstone of NET management but demands a careful balance between its potential …
