Feasibility of Ethanolization of Vein of Marshall With Specific Catheter in Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
In patients with persistent AF (PsAF), ablation limited to pulmonary vein (PV) isolation is the most straightforward approach, but results only in 50% of arrhythmia freedom at 1 year follow-up. Substrate modification strategies have failed to demonstrate their superiority with variable reported success rate. The Marshall network is a highly …
A More Engaging Visual Field Test to Increase Use and Reliability in Pediatrics
The majority of young children do not think that visual field (VF) testing of peripheral vision is similar to a game; therefore, it is not surprising that they have difficulty maintaining attention during VF testing and thus the test reliability suffers as a consequence. Poor VF reliability has been a …
Characterization of the Temporo-masseteric Nerve Block (TMNB) in Healthy Subjects
The proposed pilot study is aimed at preliminary characterization of the TMNB injection in 20 healthy volunteers. Assessment of bite-force distribution and surface electromyographic activity of the temporalis and the masseter muscles, at rest and clench, before and after unilateral TMNB injection, will be the primary outcome measures. Post-injection assessments …
Neonatal Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy : Safety and Feasibility Study of a Curative Treatment With Autologous Cord Blood Stem Cells
Neonatal hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy is a dramatic perinatal complication due to brain asphyxia. Neurological and neurosensory sequelae are frequent in survivors, due to neuronal damage and loss. Currently, only total or partial body hypothermia can partially prevent cell loss. However, no treatment exists to restore neuronal functions. Cord blood stem cells …
Sympathetic-vascular Dysfunction in Obesity and Insulin Resistance (Vitamin C Study)
The main purpose of research is to examine and understanding the development of hypertension in obese adults with insulin resistance. Findings from our studies will identify unique mechanisms that can be targeted to limit increases in vascular dysfunction and reduce the excessively high prevalence of hypertension and risk for cardiovascular …
Xylitol BSI Multisite - Reduction of Bloodstream Infections From Oral Organisms in Pediatric Stem Cell Transplant
Bloodstream infections (BSI) caused by bacteria translocating across injured oral mucosa are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing stem cell transplantation (SCT). Unfortunately, there are currently no known strategies to prevent these BSI in this vulnerable population. The investigators will conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial …
NeuroPathways Intervention for Brain Tumor Patients
This goal of this study is to test an information and support intervention for patients with malignant (or "high-grade") brain tumors. This study was developed to help patients cope after a brain tumor diagnosis. The main question this study aims to answer is whether this intervention (which includes access to …
Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C During Pregnancy
This is a multicenter, single arm study of Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) for treatment of chronic hepatitis C infection during pregnancy. Treatment will be initiated during the second or third trimester in approximately 100 pregnant people. Maternal participants will take one SOF/VEL tablet once daily for 12 weeks (84 days) and followed …
The Role of Diet in Periodontal Inflammation: A Controlled Clinical Study
Diet can influence the body's healing and repair mechanisms. A dietary imbalance obviously cannot trigger periodontal disease in the absence of a primum movens, which is bacterial plaque. However, it can condition its severity and extent by altering the permeability of the oral mucosa, the effectiveness of the immune response …
A Clinical Study to Investigate the Efficacy of Intratumoral Tigilanol Tiglate in Soft Tissue Sarcoma
A Phase IIa open label study evaluating the preliminary efficacy of intratumoural tigilanol tiglate in advanced and/or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma of the extremities and body wall.
