Innovative Approach to Detect Recurrent Colorectal Lesions With Surveillance Via Mutation Analysis & Clinical Phenotype
It is known that the development of colorectal adenoma is dependent on the appearance of somatic mutations in protooncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Based on our previous mutation analyses of 120 patients with high-risk adenoma removed by enbloc resection with subsequent colonoscopy after 1 year, there is a correlation between …
Determination of Health Care Needs of Elderly Individuals According to the Omaha Classification System and Investigation of the Effects of Implemented Nursing Interventions on Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors and Quality of Life
As in the whole world, there is an increase in the elderly population in the TRNC. However, no systematic care is provided for the registration and follow-up of elderly individuals. In this study, it is aimed to determine the health care needs of the elderly with a systematic method with …
Implementation of Ultrasound Guided Central Venous Catheter Confirmation Protocol
The bedside use of ultrasound after central venous catheter (CVCs) insertion has lagged behind other applications in medicine, thus presenting an opportunity for innovative, evidence-based research that will influence clinician behavior. This research focuses on bedside ultrasound applications as an example, to evaluate clinical practice change. Chest radiographs are associated …
Congenital Aniridia Patient Questionnaire
Congenital aniridia is a pan-ocular genetic disease characterized by a partial or complete absence of the iris, hence its name. The prevalence ranges from 1 / 40,000 to 1 / 96,000 births, but it may be underestimated. This condition combines several types of eye damage and could associate systemic manifestations, …
Effect of Imipenem and Meropenem on the Digestive Microbiota and the Emergence and Carriage of Multidrug-resistant Bacteria
Among enterobacteria, ESBL production is the leading cause of multidrug resistance. The first cases of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae (EBLSE) infections were described in the 1980s and subsequently spread worldwide. Since the turn of the century, the prevalence of EBLSE infections, particularly among E. coli and K. pneumoniae, has increased dramatically. The …
Genetic Test Based Risk Prediction of Early Calcific Aortic Valve Disease in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valve
This study is to elucidate the impact of germline mutations and clonal hematopoiesis (CHIP) on the progression of early aortic valve calcification in patients with bicuspid aortic valves. The study will be conducted over a recruitment period of one year and a follow-up observation period of two years. Considering a …
The Evaluation of Piezo and Endonasal Osteotomy Methods on Postoperative Healing Process in Septorhinoplasty
The goal of this observational study is to compare the effect of Piezo and endonasal osteotomy techniques on the healing process of patients undergoing septorhinoplasty surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: In which osteotomy technique the edema is lesser? Which osteotomy technique is better for thick vs …
Early PKD Observational Cohort Study
This observational study will collect blood and urine and clinical information from individuals with early-stages of polycystic kidney disease (PKD), their unaffected siblings and normal volunteers to create a biobank, also called a biorepository. The long-term goal is to develop new knowledge on biological markers or biomarkers that indicate changes …
Histologic Evolution of Patients With Liver Transplantation
Certain pediatric liver transplant patients with immunosuppression levels in the therapeutic range and normal liver function tests present histological alterations (inflammation or fibrosis) in protocol biopsies. The objective of the study was to evaluate the histological findings of protocol biopsies performed at 2, 5, 10 and 15 years after liver …
Natural History Study of Homocystinuria Caused by Cystathionine Beta-Synthase Deficiency (ACAPPELLA)
The purpose of the study is to characterize the clinical course of homocystinuria in pediatric and adult patients aged 1 to 65 years under current clinical management practices
