Use of 'Mechanical Power' as a Predictor of Increased Serum and Pulmonary Proinflammatory Cytokine Concentrations in Patients With Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure: A Prospective Observational Study
The aim of this study is to report the proportion of patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failyre (AHRF) undergoing mechanical ventilation who exceed 17 J/min of mechanical power (MP) and the difference in terms of proinflammatory cytokine concentration in blood samples and bronchoalveolar lavage. The main questions it aims to …
Long Term Effect of AIT in Children
The present study will investigate the long term effect of allergen immunotherapy in a real-life study in children with allergy undergoing subcutaneous or sublingual immunotherapy with grass pollen, birch, house dust mites or venom.
Impact of Sensory, Motor and Vestibular Deficit on the Postural Stability of CMT Patients
Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT), a therapeutically orphan neuromuscular disease affecting one in 2,500 people, represents a challenge to the medical and scientific communities. Physiotherapeutic-rehabilitative strategies play a crucial role in the management of CMT, particularly addressing balance impairment, a key disabling symptom. However, clinical studies in this field are limited. Our study …
Campylobacter Spp. Bone and Joint Infection: a Retrospective Cohort Study
Campylobacter bacteria, a Gram-negative bacillus commensal in the digestive tract of many animals and mainly responsible for human infections with digestive origins, has been little studied in the field of osteoarticular infections (OAI). Campylobacter spp. are, however, well described, mainly for C. fetus, and pose a dual therapeutic problem: i) …
Characterization of Left Atrial Substrate in Patients With Ventricular Arrhythmias
The goal of this observational study is to analyze the characteristics of left atrial electroanatomical maps in patients without a history of atrial fibrillation but with a high clinical risk of developing it, as indicated by the presence of structural heart disease or a CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 2 points. The …
Assessing the Impact of Botulinum Toxin Type A on Facial Wrinkles: A Comprehensive Clinical Investigation
A study conducting to see how well a treatment called Botulinum Toxin Type A works for reducing facial wrinkles. The study will help us understand if this treatment is safe and effective for making wrinkles on the face less noticeable.
Prediction of Response to Bariatric Surgery in Patients With Severe Obesity
This is an retrospective and prospective (ambispective) study with data collection from volunteer patients who passed an MMPI-2-RF (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2-Restructured form) questionnaire in the preoperative phase of a bariatric surgery project. The evolution of their BMI will be correlated to psychological dimensions collected in patient questionnaires, before and …
Auditory, Visual, and Tactile Interactions During Active, Dynamic Touch
Even though extensive research on the multisensory integration of auditory and visual stimuli has been carried out, the mechanisms of integration of tactile stimuli with other senses remain less known and understood. Furthermore, the brain mechanisms associated with active and dynamic tactile exploration of a surface have not been extensively …
Neonatologist-performed Lung Ultrasound in the Delivery Room
The objective of this study is to evaluate the role of the neonatologist-performed lung ultrasound (NPLUS) during immediate transition after birth of late preterm and full-term neonates using the lung ultrasound score to predict the need of respiratory support persisting more than 1 hour after birth.
Correlation of Cardiac Output Determined by Echocardiography and Indirect Calorimetry in Critically Ill Patients in Cardiogenic Shock on Extracorporeal Circulatory Life Support
This observational study investigates whether the daily measured trend of cardiac output as evaluated by indirect calorimetry correlates with the same evaluated by transthoracic echocardiography.
