Study of Product of Conception Derived From Ultrasound-guided Manual Vacuum Aspiration
Early pregnancy loss is very common, approximately one in four women will experience a miscarriage in their lifetime. The etiology of pregnancy loss remains largely unknown, although genetic, anatomical, endocrinological and immunological abnormalities have been implicated. It is known that embryonic/fetal chromosomal aberrations contributed to approximately 50% of early pregnancy …
Single Cell Sequencing of Tonsillar Tissue in Children With OSA
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in children is a prevalent sleep disorder, and is characterised by repetitive complete or partial upper airway obstruction during sleep. It is an important disease as it is associated with a large spectrum of end-organ morbidities. Adenotonsillar hypertrophy is the commonest cause of OSA in children, …
Prospective Study on Clinical Outcomes of Spontaneous Pneumothorax
Pneumothorax can be fatal if treatment is delayed or the pneumothorax is refractory. However, the mortality rates and their risk factors were mainly reported from retrospective studies, and local data regarding the mortality of spontaneous pneumothorax is scarce. This study aims at evaluating the in-hospital mortality and relevant clinical outcomes …
DIC Markers and Thrombin Generation Parameters in Patients on ECMO Support: a Pilot Study
To study the correlation between novel DIC markers and thrombin generation parameters with thrombotic and hemorrhagic complications of patients on ECMO support.
HDV Screening Study
This is a territory-wide cross-sectional study of all individuals living with HIV/HBV coinfection and HBV-related HCC.
Intra- and Interindividual Moderators of Prefrontal Excitability Investigated Using Simultaneous TMS With Neuroimaging
The simultaneous application of brain stimulation and neuroimaging offers significant potential for advancing basic neuroscience research and developing objective diagnostic and prognostic markers for mental disorders. The University Research Facility in Behavioral and Systems Neuroscience (UBSN), in collaboration with Principal Investigator Dr. Georg Kranz, recently acquired a TMS-compatible Magnetic Resonance …

This is an academic research study aiming to explore the relationships between equanimity, mindfulness, self-compassion, and mental health outcomes, and to examine the reliability and validity of the new measures in Hong Kong.
Cross-validating the iTBS-induced Hemodynamic Response From fNIRS and fMRI: a Concurrent iTBS-fMRI-fNIRS Study
Intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) targeting the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is well established in treating patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the iTBS-induced hemodynamic response during or immediately after a full session of stimulation has not been fully investigated. Although several concurrent iTBS/functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) and …
A Clinical and Imaging Registry of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Using JenaValve System/ J-Valve System for Patients With Pure Aortic Regurgitation
Aortic regurgitation (AR) is not uncommon. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for treating pure aortic regurgitation is a potential future treatment option for pure AR especially in patients having high risk for open heart surgery. TAVI using dedicated device for pure AR has a different anchor mechanism to TAVI for …
Current Awareness, Perspective and Knowledge on Social Egg Freezing
Hong Kong's fertility preservation service is underutilized and limited, with low awareness among clinicians and young adults. Traditional Chinese culture may lead to social stigma, preventing discussion of fertility issues. A survey aims to explore awareness, knowledge, and acceptance of oocyte cryopreservation, enabling resource allocation for a culturally acceptable public …
