Comparing Cardiac Chamber Measurements: TTE vs. TEE Under Anesthesia
This study aims to compare two common ultrasound techniques used during heart surgery: transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). TTE is performed by placing an ultrasound probe on the chest, while TEE involves inserting a probe into the esophagus, which provides closer and clearer images of the heart. Both …
HDV Screening Study
This is a territory-wide cross-sectional study of all individuals living with HIV/HBV coinfection and HBV-related HCC.
A Real-world Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Deucravacitinib in Adults With Plaque Psoriasis in France (RePhlect)
The purpose of this study is to assess the real-world effectiveness of deucravacitinib treatment in adults diagnosed with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis
Genetics and Environment INtersection in the ALS-FTD Spectrum: an Italian Twins Cohort StudY with a Multi-Omics Approach
The goal of this study is to learn from discordant twins affected by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and/or Frontotemporal Dementia the contribution of genetic background versus environmental exposure. The main questions it aims to answer is: How far does the genetic background explain the onset of ALS/FTD in discordant twins? Which …
Double Kissing-crush vs Controlled Balloon-crush Techniques For Complex Coronary Bfurcation Lesions
The Crush technique for coronary bifurcation lesions has evolved significantly since its introduction to the literature by Colombo et al. in 2003, with several iterations, including double kissing balloon inflation. The main disadvantage of the historical Crush technique is the low success rate of the final kissing balloon inflation. An …
Long-Term Neurologic and Neurocognitive Sequelae Following Pediatric Ebola Virus in Liberia
Background Ebola virus disease (EVD) causes fever, vomiting, and diarrhea, and may cause internal bleeding. It is often fatal. EVD may also damage the brain and nervous system. It can cause headaches, tremors, weakness, and other problems. These issues can continue for years after people recover from EVD infection. Researchers …
Revised Targets for Knee Radiofrequency Ablation
This research team is doing a study to learn more about a new way to treat long-term knee pain caused by joint damage. They are using a treatment called radiofrequency ablation (RFA). This is a procedure where doctors use heat to stop certain nerves from sending pain signals. In this …
PRospective Observational Study of STereotactic Body rAdiation Therapy With Androgen Deprivation Therapy for Organ-confined High-risk Prostate Cancer: the PROSTAR Trial
Prostate Cancer (PCa) is the second most common malignancy and the 5th common cause of cancer-related mortality in men worldwide. The majority of patients with PCa is diagnosed with potentially curable disease and its management includes different approaches, such as surgery, Radiation Therapy (RT) and Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT), for …
Liquid Biopsies for the Detection of Somatic Mutations in bAVMs
"Personalized medicine has revolutionized patient care, particularly in oncology. Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are abnormal vessels located on the surface of the brain or within the brain parenchyma, causing abnormal communication between arterial and venous networks, without the interposition of the capillary bed. The main risk of these malformations is …
19F MRI in Healthy Children and Children With Mild Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease
This study capitalizes on the emerging technology of 19F MRI, using conventional 'thermally' polarized perfluorinated gas (perfluoropropane, or PFP) mixed with oxygen and studied with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to visualize ventilation. This technique has not been studied in children. Children and adolescents (6-17 years old) with cystic fibrosis (CF) …
