A Comparison of Speech Outcome in Pediatric Cleft Patients, After Modified Furlow-Sommerlad Palatoplasty in Comparison to Modified Furlow Palatoplasty Alone
Nowadays, surgical success of cleft palate patients is ascribed to the sufficiency of velopharyngeal closure, and the associated speech results such as voice nasality, resonance and articulation. The investigators aim to evaluate if the surgical modified Furlow palatoplasty in combination with the intravelar veloplasty according to Sommerlad significantly reduces the …
Men at High Genetic Risk for Prostate Cancer
Background Research studies have shown that genetic changes and family history may increase a man s risk for prostate cancer. Researchers want to follow the prostate health of men who have specific genetic changes associated with prostate cancer to help them learn more about which men are at higher risk …
The Evolution of Systemic Microvascular Reactivity in Heart Transplant Patients
The evolution of systemic microvascular reactivity may aid in the comprehension of cardiovascular physiology in heart transplantation patients, and possibly suggest the non-invasive evaluation of skin microcirculation as an ancillary tool in the clinical evaluation of these patients.
Nasal Mucus Proteome and Immunotherapy
Nasal mucus as first line defense barrier of the nasal mucosa contains a variety of proteins that act as functional units. We recently showed that the nasal mucus proteome between allergic rhinitis patients and healthy controls is significantly altered. The aim of the present project is to show changes in …
Near Remote Method to Guide Performance of Regional Anesthesia
Ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia/analgesia techniques (or simply, 'regional blocks') have gained popularity as they can reduce, and sometimes even eliminate, the need for opiate analgesics (and, consequently, their side effects), thereby improving patient safety, reducing length of hospital stay and medical costs, and improving patient satisfaction. However, a major barrier to …
Magnetic Resonance Elastography in Patients With Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
The main objective of this study is to utilize Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) to determine tissue stiffness of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). For patients with AAA, MRE is a more sensitive and superior method of determining the risk for rupture of AAA based on stiffness estimates when compared to the …
Point-of-Care Ultrasound in Predicting Adverse Outcomes in Emergency Department Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism
This study is an observational, prospective study examining the role point-of-care echocardiography of predicting short term adverse outcomes in emergency department patients with acute pulmonary embolism. The primary objective is to assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasound-guided measures of right ventricular dilation (RVD) and strain in predicting clinical outcomes in …
"System Medicine" Approach for Prevention Strategies for Comorbidities in Infertile Men
By applying a "system medicine" approach, the project aims to identify new biomarkers and/or prognostic tools aimed at developing personalized strategies to prevent the onset of comorbidities in infertile men.
Mitral Splay Sign, Its Mechanism and Association With Severity of Regurgitation
To study echocardiography splay sign in mitral regurgitation and its association with mitral regurgitation severity and doppler band artifact ('seagull cry').
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 …
