The Sinonasal Cavity as a Reservoir for Upper Airway Bacterial Development
While the maternal-newborn exchange of airway microbiota is well-documented, no studies have examined within-subject relationships among the mouth, sinuses, nasopharynx and lungs and the relative abundance of bacterial taxa at those sites. Recent evidence suggests the oral cavity may serve as a reservoir for pathogens that translocate to non-oral locations; …
The Nociceptive Flexion Reflex as a Diagnostic Tool of Central Sensitization
This experimental study will investigate whether the decreased NFR threshold and increased NFR temporal summation, which are frequently observed in chronic pain patients, are only symptomatic manifestations that occur in the involved limb and indicate peripheral sensitization or generalized manifestations that are also present in the non-involved limbs and thus …
A Study on Predictive Models and Clinical Outcome of Radiation Pneumonitis
Radiation pneumonitis is the main dose-limiting toxicity of thoracic radiotherapy, which can affect life quality, survival, and the tumor-controlling effects of patients receiving thoracic radiotherapy. The purpose of this study is to: Identify biomarkers including serum proteins, gene expression, genetic changes, and epigenetic modifications that determine radiation pneumonitis. Investigate the …
AIM's Writing for Healing: A Workshop for Individuals Living With Paralysis
The UAB Institute for Arts In Medicine (AIM) is currently implementing an expressive emotional writing pilot project for adults with paralysis caused by neurological conditions such as traumatic head or spinal cord injury.
A New Ultrasonographic Tool to Assess Pulmonary Strain in the ICU
The primary objective of the study is to create a small dataset of regional pulmonary strain values in patients suffering from pulmonary diseases under mechanical ventilation in an intensive care setting. Hypothesis: The analysis of lung ultrasonographic sequences using speckle-tracking allows the determination of local pleural strain in 4 predetermined …
A Study of Teduglutide in Japanese People With Short Bowel Syndrome
The main aims of this study are to check for side effects from treatment with teduglutide (Revestive) and how well teduglutide controls symptoms of short bowel syndrome. The study sponsor will not be involved in how the participants are treated but will provide instructions on how the clinics will record …
Hypertension as a Reason for Concellation of Elective Minor Abdominal Surgery
During the anesthesia outpatient consultation, patients proposed for minor abdominal surgery, known hypertensive patients are selected. On the day of the procedure, we check the blood pressure figures. If the numbers are high: SBP ≥ 180 and/or PAD≥110: we start by a filling as well as a dose of 1 …
A Composite Assay for HER2-positive Early-stage Breast Cancer Management
The goal of this observational study is to assess the prognostic value of a genomic classifier (S18) and its refined version (S*) in women with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer. The study aims to determine whether these tools can predict event-free (EFS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients treated with neoadjuvant …
Validation of a Parental Questionnaire for Screening Children for Neurovisual Disorders
Some children present visual difficulties linked not to damage to the eye, but to damage to the brain. This type of dysfunction of the visual cerebral pathways leads, for example, to difficulties in recognition, visuomotor coordination or visuo-spatial disorders. These highly specific disorders are known as "cortical visual impairment" (CVI). …
A Combined Biomarker Model for Risk Stratification of Indeterminate Pulmonary Nodules
This is a prospective, multicenter observational study aim at estimating the potential clinical utility of the CBM and at establishing the SOPs and protocols for a future randomized control trial.
