Patient and Physician Benefit/ Risk Preferences for Treatment of mPC in Hong Kong: a Discrete Choice Experiment
The objective of this study is to examine the preference weightings in term of risk/ benefit attributes of treatment in physician and prostate cancer patients from different stages of disease.
Pharmacokinetics of Apixaban in Peritoneal Dialysis
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is fairly prevalent in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) with the prevalence estimated to be 3.8 - 27%. While it is reported that patient with peritoneal dialysis (PD) has a lower incidence of AF as compared to patient with haemodialysis (HD), the risk is still …
Sleep Apnea and Cognitive Function in Subjects With Subjective or Mild Cognitive Impairment
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is recurrent episodes of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during sleep that causes intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation and leads to cardiometabolic and neurocognitive sequelae. Chronic intermittent hypoxia, sleep fragmentation of OSA, and insufficient sleep have been significantly associated with higher risks of …
CUHK Stroke Biobank
The purpose of the study are: To make quality, characterized samples and related data available for future studies, including Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS), genomics, and biomarker research; To use these samples and related medical information to answer research questions aimed at understanding the genetics and underlying biology of acquired …
Gut Microbiota in Adults With Chronic Widespread Pain
We aim to identify the gut microbiome composition in adults with CWP. We will collect the stool sample of 120 healthy individuals and 120 Chronic Widespread Pain patients. We hypothesize that the intestinal microbiota is altered in CWP compared to healthy subjects without CWP.
Risk Stratifying COPD Exacerbations
To identify clinical characteristics on presentation which predict differential outcomes in patients with exacerbation of COPD.
Transcriptome Profiling and Endometrial Receptivity
The aim of this study is to correlate and identify the biochemical markers which may reflect WOI. Blood samples will be collected and endometrial biopsy will be performed at particular time points.
Prodromal Markers in Recurrent Dream Enactment Behaviors Without REM Sleep Without Atonia
REM sleep behavior disorder is a novel and distinct parasomnia characterized by recurrent dream enactment behaviors (DEBs) and REM sleep without atonia (RSWA) during polysomnographic assessment, with a male predominance and typical onset age at early 60's. The majority of patients with idiopathic RBD (iRBD) will eventually develop α-synucleinopathy, for …
Sleep Apnea, Neurocognitive Decline and Brain Imaging in Patients With Subjective or Mild Cognitive Impairment
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is recurrent episodes of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during sleep that causes intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation and potentially lead to cardiometabolic and neurocognitive sequelae. Chronic intermittent hypoxia, sleep fragmentation of OSA, and insufficient sleep have been significantly associated with higher risks …
Metagenomic Study in Parapneumonic Effusion
Objective: To identify known and unknown bacterial pathogens in patients with pleural infections using a combination of conventional culture and next-generation sequencing approaches. Hypothesis to be tested: The investigators hypothesize that next-generation sequencing will serve as a comprehensive approach to identify culturable and unculturable bacterial pathogens in patients with pleural …
