The Erector Spinae Plane Block For Gastrointestinal Malignancy Pain Treatment (EGIPT)
This study will target patients with gastrointestinal (GI) malignancy who present to any of 4 Penn Medicine emergency departments (EDs) with intractable abdominal pain. We will offer eligible patients an erector spinae plane block (ESPB), a regional anesthesia technique which is already offered to such patients in the ED at …
Impact of Surgical Approach on Adaptation of Posture-respiratory Coupling
This study aims to identify physiopathologic mechanisms related to surgical approaches during lobectomies for non-small cell lung cancer which can explain the better quality of life and the decrease of of post-operative complications in minimally invasive techniques (video-assisted thoracic surgery and robotic-assisted thoracic surgery) compared to conventional thoracotomy.
Contemplative Practice for Well-being and Self-Deconstruction in Women
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a contemplative practice called Feeding Your Demons (FYD), based on a secular adaptation of Tibetan Buddhism, in improving psychological well-being, body image, body acceptance, compassion, and self-deconstruction in adult women. Participants will be randomly assigned to either FYD or an …
A Single-Arm Investigator-Initiated Tria (IIT) Evaluating the Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Autologous Drug-Loaded Neutrophils (NeuMed) in Patients With Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Autologous Drug-Loaded Neutrophils (NeuMed) can treat patients with Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer. The drug carried by the Autologous Neutrophils is Monomethyl Auristatin E. The main questions it aims to answer are: First, to verify the safety of Autologous Drug-Loaded Neutrophils (NeuMed) …
Development of Artificial Intelligence Tools for the Detection of Stress Markers and Consideration of Stress States in the Monitoring of Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes
Stress refers to all the reactions of an organism subjected to exogenous or endogenous stress. In the context of diabetes, stress plays a critical role. There are two forms of stress: acute and chronic, both of which can have a significant impact on patients' glycaemic control. Acute stress, if repeated, …
Prosthetic Modality and MBL
The present study will test the effect of different prosthetic modalities on conical and internal hex connection implants, assessing the radiographic MBL changes after one year. Consecutive patients fulfilling inclusion/exclusion criteria will enter the study. Once the implant is inserted, patients will be divided into three groups according to the …
Effect of Handgrip Strength on Portal Vein Hemodynamics in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis
Background Handgrip strength , a core indicator of muscle function, has been confirmed to be significantly associated with the clinical prognosis of patients with liver cirrhosis. However, no studies have explored its correlation with portal venous hemodynamics. Objective The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of Handgrip …
Cuff Pressure and Airway Edema in CABG With CPB
This study investigates how endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff pressure management during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) affects upper airway edema. Patients will be randomized into two groups: cuff pressure kept at 0 mmHg or maintained at 20-30 mmHg during CPB. Ultrasonography will be used to measure …
Efficacy of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Over the Primary Cortex in Patients With Neuropathic Pain and Cancer
High-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the primary motor cortex (M1) has shown its efficacy to alleviate pain in patients suffering from refractory neuropathic pain. rTMS is now considered as 3rd-line therapy (by the French Society for the Study and Treatment of Pain) for patient's refractory to drug therapy. …
Combination Vaccination and Broadly Neutralising Antibody Therapy in HIV
There is no cure for HIV infection. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is widely available but requires daily, life-long intake. This can cause issues around side-effects, resistance, adherence and stigma. A new therapy, broadly neutralising antibodies, (bNAbs), may work as well as ART and may last longer - one dose can last …
