Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) During Pregnancy: Prevalence of Seroconversion, Effect on Maternal and Perinatal Outcomes and Risk of Vertical Transmission (COVID-MAP)
The objectives of this proposal are to: 1) determine the rate of SARS-CoV-2 seroconversion in unselected pregnant women in Hong Kong; 2) determine the rate of SARS-CoV-2 infection in women presenting with miscarriage and stillbirth; 3) follow the pregnancy course and perinatal outcome of confirmed COVID-19-infected pregnant cases; 4) determine …
Perceive and Calculated CV Risk
Cardiovascular prevention guidelines use estimated 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk to guide treatment decisions and engage patients in shared decision-making. Research has focused on refining the accuracy of these CV risk calculators for different populations, relatively little has been done to understand how patients perceive their own ASCVD risk. …
Community Burden of MG Infection
Objective: To assess the burden and the transmission dynamics of Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) infection in men who have sex with men in Hong Kong. Design and setting: involving a) a cross-sectional study (completion of an online self-administered survey, followed by self-sampling for testing in the laboratory, and performance of HIV …
Genetic Association With Various Severities, Phenotypes and Endotypes of Asthma.
There is limited information on genetics associated with asthma in Chinese. An earlier meta-analysis found that ADAM33, FcεRIb, RANTES, TNF-a, ACE, b2-AR, IL-4R and IL-13 genes could be proposed as asthma susceptible genes in the Chinese population. However, given the limited number of studies, more data are required to validate …
Long-Term Follow-up Study for Subjects With CHB Previously Treated With Imdusiran (AB729)
This is a long term follow-up study for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) subjects who have received imdusiran treatment in a prior clinical trial, stopped NA therapy during that trial, and remain off therapy. Subjects may enroll after completing the end of study visit (baseline visit within 12 weeks ± 1 …

Cohort Study on Treatment Comes of Catheter-based Therapy in Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism in Hong Kong
This retrospective cohort study (Hong Kong PECT Registry) compares treatment outcomes between different percutaneous catheter-based therapies in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). PE is a critical condition with potential for rapid deterioration and mortality before treatment. While availability of catheter-based therapy contributed to the declining mortality rates of PE, …
Impact of COVID-19 Vaccines on Cerebrovascular Health
Safe and effective severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines may reduce the transmission of and achieve population immunity against the COVID-19 pandemic, which accounted for more than 3.75million deaths worldwide. With World Health Organization's (WHO) effort on ensuring equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, vaccination rate may increase in …
Pulmonary Function Assessment and Evaluation Using Self-administrable and Portable Electrical Impedance Tomography
Spirometry is the most commonly used modality for measuring lung function. However, spirometry is a coordination-dependent test and may lead to erroneous results if subjects are unable to fully comply with the instructions. It also lacks the capability for regional assessment of pulmonary functions. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a …
Progression Follow up of the First-degree Relatives of Patients With REM Sleep Behavior Disorder
REM sleep behavior disorder is a novel and distinct parasomnia characterized by recurrent dream enactment behaviors (DEBs) and polysomnographic features of REM sleep without atonia (RSWA), with typical onset age at early 60's. Idiopathic RBD (iRBD) has been suggested as a most specific precursor of α-synucleinopathy-related neurodegeneration (e.g. Parkinson's disease …
