Effective Translation of Endovascular Thrombectomy Trials Into Real-world Practice in the Asia-Pacific
As a major breakthrough of acute stroke treatment over the past decade, endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) drastically improved neurological recovery and survival in patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) ischemic strokes in major clinical trials. Nevertheless, much remained uncertain about the implementation of scientific evidence of EVT into real-world benefits. For …
Comparing N-terminal-proB-type Natriuretic Peptide With Other Criteria in Pleural Fluid Analysis
To assess the discriminative properties of pleural fluid (PF) N-terminal-proB-type-natriuretic-peptide (NTproBNP) levels in identifying heart failure (HF)-associated pleural effusions (PE).
Relationship of Airway Microbiota, Endotype and Phenotype in Adult Asthma
Increasing evidence supports that the respiratory microbiota, including viral and bacterial microorganisms, play important roles in respiratory health and disease. Microbial patterns in airways may induce distinctive endotypes of asthma. Previous studies suggest host-microbiota interactions in children may account for the heterogeneity of endotypes and clinical presentations. However, information on …
oGVHD After Bone Marrow Transplantation: a Territory-wide Cohort
Allogeneic Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an effective treatment for all array of blood or blood-producing organ disorders. Graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) occurs as a result of an overactive immunological system against normal host tissues. It can happen in the liver, skin, mucosal surface of the eye, gastrointestinal tract, and genitalia. …
Prevalence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and the Association With Cognitive Impairment
The study is aimed to carry out an epidemiology study investigating the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the association with cognitive impairment.
Microbiology and Treatment Outcome of Acute Exacerbation of Bronchiectasis in Hong Kong
Bronchiectasis is a common disease worldwide with a high burden on healthcare resources. In Hong Kong (HK), local microbiological and clinical data regarding acute exacerbation of bronchiectasis (AEB) is lacking, in particular the frequency of pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) in AEB is yet to be elucidated. A better understanding of the …
Serial Gut Microbiome and Bacterial Gene Markers Changes After Endoscopic Resection of Colorectal Advanced Neoplasia
The investigators hypothesize that gut microbiome composition and the four bacterial gene markers (M3) show dynamic changes after endoscopic resection of advanced neoplasia, some key bacteria are associated with restoration of gut microbiome after endoscopic resection.
Morphologic Evolution and Remodeling of Intracranial Atherosclerosis: A Longitudinal Study by 3D-rotational Angiography
This study is to elucidate the morphologic evolution and remodeling of ICAD under stringent control of cardiovascular risk factors.
DOAC in Chinese Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have emerged as safe and efficacious ischemic stroke prophylaxis for non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). All four DOACs - apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, and rivaroxaban - were shown to reduce the risk of major bleeding compared to warfarin. The predictable pharmacokinetic profiles of DOACs also favour their use …
Morphology of Advanced Symptomatic Cerebral Plaques With High Embolic Potential
The study is to attain early recognition of the unstable plaques which have an imminent embolic risk in patients with intracranial atherosclerotic disease (IAD).
