MainRexult study aims to carefully evaluate a cohort of patients with schizophrenia and related disorder prescribed with the combination therapy with Abilify Maintena and Rexulti on its efficacy and tolerability in a real-life clinical setting.
Ultrasound Measurements of Hepatic Vasculatures and Hepatic Doppler Assessment of Healthy Children
Flow dynamics in the liver is altered in different hepatobiliary and cardiac pathologies, causing changes in hepatic vasculatures sizes and flow pattern changes which can be assessed by ultrasound (USG) study. Before one can use these measurements and observations to diagnose pathologies, a clear grasp of normality is crucial. In …
Mucosal Inflammation in Children With OSA
Objectives: Variability of clinical phenotypes in childhood obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) has prompted research for biomarkers to identify patients at risk of developing OSA-related complications. Upper airway inflammation is documented in children with OSA. Whether it is related to end-organ morbidities and systemic inflammation is under-explored. The primary objectives of …
Microbiome and Metabolomics Profiling in Children With OSA
Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) exhibits variable susceptibility to end-organ morbidities. Previous studies suggest that physiological sequelae in individuals with OSA promote changes in microbiome, which also interact with metabolic and inflammatory mediators. Therefore, microbiome and metabolomic profiling could potentially reveal the pathological processes underlying OSA. The primary objectives of …
Retrospective Review on Uterovaginal Anomalies
Review of surgical outcomes of patient who have undergone surgery for uterovaginal anomalies. Case notes of patients would be reviewed and data would be gathered for statistical analysis.
Natural History of Advanced Chronic Liver Diseases
This is a retrospective-prospective registry cohort study. Patients with advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) will be prospectively invited to this study. The study follow-up duration will be 10 years. The primary outcome is incident hepatic events and liver-related mortality. Participants will undergo annual transient elastography examination.
Application of Comprehensive Non-invasive Assessment To Phenotype Tricuspid Regurgitation
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is an increasingly recognized valvular heart disease associated with high morbidity and mortality. With the availability of various novel transcatheter tricuspid interventions, it is no longer considered a "forgotten valve." Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a prevalent condition also characterized by high morbidity and …
Vitamin D and Endometrial Receptivity in Infertile Women
This is a prospective study comparing vaginal and endometrial biomarkers and the trophoblast spheroid attachment rate in women with fertility problems before and after taking Vitamin D for 8 weeks.
Frailty in Older HIV-infected Individuals
Frailty has been proposed as a measure of biological (as opposed to chronological) aging. In this study the investigators plan to: (1) measure frailty in a cohort of older HIV-infected individuals in Hong Kong, and its association with mortality and quality of life; (2) identify risk factors predictive of development …
Smartwatch Paroxysmal Arrhythmia Detection Compared with Holter
The lifetime risk for development of atrial fibrillation, the commonest sustained arrhythmia in adults, is estimated to be 24%-27% for individuals of 40 years or older. Previous work showed that annual new diagnosis of AF is 11000-26000 in Hong Kong. Other arrhythmia such as supraventricular arrhythmia or premature beats were …
