The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of electroacupuncture in assisting ventilator weaning in patients with severe stroke
Is the BAT Inhibition Able to Replace Sting Challenges? (BATIRS)
Insect venom allergy is the major cause for severe allergic reactions in Europe. Wasps and honeybees are responsible for the majority of these allergic reactions. Symptoms range from generalized skin symptoms (wheals, swellings) to respiratory or cardiovascular problems such as asthma, dizziness, loss of consciousness, or cardiac arrest. The regular …
Overfeeding Induced Fat-tissue Stimulation
Type 2 diabetes is the most common metabolic disease worldwide, characterized by hyperglycemia, decreased whole body insulin sensitivity, and white adipose tissue (WAT) dysfunction. A key factor in its development is chronic overnutrition, usually with a high-fat diet (HFD), leading to disturbances of glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the mechanism …
In Vivo PARP-1 Expression With 18F-FluorThanatrace PET/CT in Patients With Pheochromocytoma and Paraganglioma
This study will enroll up to 30 evaluable patients with pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma who are undergoing surgical or systemic treatment. A pre-treatment 18F-FluorThanatrace ([18F]FTT) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan will be done prior to surgery or systemic therapy. PET/CT imaging will be used to evaluate PARP-1 expression in sites …
Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided Radiofrequency Ablation in Primary Aldosteronism
In this study, the investigators will perform endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) treatment of left-sided adrenal tumours in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) and in patients with mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS). Four different study groups will all receive EUS-RFA of left-sided adrenal tumours. Clinical and biochemical outcome as well …
The Caffeine Therapy in the Fetal to Neonatal Transition
Introduction: The caffeine is used in the treatment for apnea of prematurity and it has several positive effects in the neurodevelopment of preterm babies. There are innumerable observational studies suggesting that initiating caffeine in the first hours of life may offer more benefits in the reduction of the necessity of …
Rapid Sequencing of Approved Therapies in Patients With Metastatic or Unresectable Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma
This is a pilot, single-center, single-arm study where 20 patients with metastatic or unresectable clear cell renal cell carcinoma will receive same sequential treatment strategy (Cabozantinib for 12 weeks, then proceed with Ipilimumab plus Nivolumab immunotherapy x4 over 12 weeks, then subsequent therapies depending on treatment response for another 12 …
[18F]PT2385 PET/CT in Patients With Renal Cell Carcinoma
This is an exploratory study to assess [18F]PT2385 Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). This is an open-label, nontherapeutic trial. The main objective is to correlate hypoxia-inducible factor-2alpha (HIF2α) levels as determined by an investigational [18F]PT2385 PET/CT scan with the levels on subsequently obtained …
Trial to Evaluate Fecobionics in Fecal Incontinence (FI) (NORMAL and ABNORMAL-FI)
The objective is to determine the length-tension properties of the anal sphincters using Fecobionics in normal subjects and FI patients during anal distension and during simulated evacuation. Fecobionics has the consistency and shape of normal stool and can record pressures, cross-sectional area, orientation and viscoelastic properties of the anorectum and …
Clinical Outcomes With Non-Powered vs. Powered Prosthetic Knees by K2-level Amputees
The goal of this proposed project is to gather community-based data from the K2-level Transfemoral Amputee (TFA) population to aid in evidence-based prescription of powered prosthetic knees (i.e., choosing the right device to maximize the benefit for each patient). The investigators intend to use this trial data along with a …
