Clinical Study on Strategy for Refractory Henoch-Schönlein Purpura
IgA vasculitis is relatively common in children,especially in Asian countries. Abdominal manifestation could be severe, including bleeding, pancreatitis,appendicitis and intestinal intussusception. Delayed diagnosis could be fatal and cause severe complications.Nowadays no guidelines for those with severe abdominal manifestations in China.However, the most used treatment is steroid. For those severe forms …
Functional Exercise for Sarcopenia
Sarcopenia is one of the major causes of functional decline and negative health outcomes among older adults. Prominent evidence suggests exercise interventions can reverse sarcopenia. However, past studies mainly focus on structured exercise programs, automatically excluding many older adults who are not motivated and lack the time/resources to conduct the …
Different Modalities of Management of Odontogenic Keratocysts
Background The odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) have been one of the maxillofacial region's most contentious pathological phenomena. Decompression/marsupialization (D/M), enucleation (E), enucleation + chemical cauterization with Carnoy's solution (E+CS), enucleation + peripheral ostectomy (E + PO), as opposed to enucleation + chemical cauterization with Carnoy's solution + peripheral ostectomy (E + …
Smartphone Flicker Fusion Test for Patients With Optic Disorders.
The purpose of this project is to validate a quick, easy-to-use and administer smartphone flicker fusion test. The app (called eyeFusion) can potentially be used to easily and quickly collect critical flicker fusion measurements on patients admitted with optic disorders as part of the clinical care process.
Optimization of a Non-invasive Electrophysiological Method for Studying the Functionality of Auditory Nerve Fibers
Acoustic overexposure can induced temporary or hearing loss. Usually hearing loss is associated with cochlear cell damages. Recently, a new pathological entity was described and called "hidden hearing loss". In animal model, the histopathology revealed a selective reduction in the number of auditory fibers, resulting in a decrease in the …
S-Nitrosylation (SNO) Therapy During Autologous Blood Transfusion
The Purpose of the study is to test the hypothesis that administration of an S-nitrosylating (SNO) agent can improve tissue oxygenation during transfusion of packed red blood cells (RBCs).
Trabeculectomy Versus Peripheral Iridectomy Plus Goniotomy in Advanced PACG
A multicenter, parallel, open, non-inferior randomized controlled trial is conducted to compare the effectiveness and safety of trabeculectomy and peripheral iridectomy plus goniotomy (TVG) in the treatment of advanced primary angle closure glaucoma with no or mild cataracts.
Impact of Anti-TNF, Vedolizumab and Tofacitinib on Aortic Stiffness, Carotid Intima-media Thickness and Cardiovascular Risk of Patients With Ulcerative Colitis
An increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) diseases has been observed in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The impact of IBD drugs, such as anti-TNF, anti-integrins or anti-JAK, on the risk of CV events in IBD is remains unknown. Aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV), a measure of aortic stiffness, and …
Calf Circumference Versus X-ray Absorptiometry in the Diagnosis of Sarcopenia in Elderly Hospitalized Patients
This is a prospective single-center study to evaluate a diagnostic method. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the performance of calf circumference as a diagnostic method for sarcopenia in hospitalized elderly people, compared to a gold standard method which is X-ray absorptiometry. The study population are hospitalizing …
A Study of ASP1002 in Adults for Treatment of Solid Tumors
ASP1002 is a potential new treatment for people with certain solid tumors. Before ASP1002 is available as a treatment, the researchers need to understand how it is processed by and acts upon the body. This information will help find a suitable dose and check for potential medical problems from the …
