Point-of-Care Ultrasound for Pediatric Thoracic Trauma: A Multi-Institutional Trial
The objective of the proposed study is to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of ED POCUS in pediatric traumatic thoracic injuries including traumatic pneumothorax, hemothorax, lung contusion, rib fractures, and pulmonary edema (from submersion injury). This will be a prospective, multicenter, observational study of children 0-21 years of age presenting to …
Genetic Analysis of Pheochromocytomas, Paragangliomas and Associated Conditions
Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are neural crest-derived tumors of the nervous system that are often inherited and genetically heterogeneous. Genetic screening is recommended for patients and their relatives, and can guide clinical decisions. However, a mutation is not found in all cases. The aims of this proposal are to: 1) to …
COlorectal BReath Analysis (COBRA2)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of cancer death in the United Kingdom, with approximately 17,000 deaths per year. The five-year survival rate from CRC is only 10% when discovered at a late stage, but exceeds 90% if diagnosed early. Symptoms related to CRC can be non-specific, …
Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Registry (LAAO Registry)
The Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Registry (LAAO Registry™) is designed to assess the prevalence, demographics, management, and outcomes of patients undergoing percutaneous and epicardial based left atrial appendage occlusion procedures to reduce the risk of stroke. Patient-level data will be submitted by participating hospitals on a quarterly basis to the …
Monitoring of MDRO Dynamics and Resistance Mechanisms in a University Hospital Network
Survey on the prevalence of MDRO to monitor the import of MDRO from the community. Rectal swabs will be taken and cultivated. Survey on community-onset and nosocomial bloodstream infections will be documented and strains will be isolated. For each BSI a clinical data set will be obtained (e.g. patient age, …
CArdioMetabolism and Atherosclerotic PlaqUe progreSsion
Systematic metabolic diseases are closely related to prevalence and progression of atherosclerosis. This prospective cohort consecutively enrolls patients with coronary artery disease compliacted with metabolic abnormalities such as diabtetes, prediabetes, obesity, chronic kidney disease and hyperuricemia.
Cannabis Use and Outcomes in Black and White Patients With Cancer
The goal of the observational study is to learn how black and white patients with solid tumor cancer use cannabis, opioids and tobacco. The investigators are using momentary ecological assessment through a smart phone app and surveys to assess patient-reported pain and other symptoms as to inform clinical practice and …
Emergency PWAS in Respiratory Infectious Disease
Develop an emergency PanorOmics Wide Association Study (ePWAS) for the early, rapid biological and pathophysiological characterisation of known and novel Infectious Diseases in adult patients presenting to emergency departments with suspected, acute, community-acquired respiratory infectious disease (scaRID). Phase 1 Develop an ED-ID biobank (named ePWAS-RID). Phase 2 Targeted research for …
Histopathology Images Based Prediction of Molecular Pathology in Glioma Using Artificial Intelligence
This registry aims to collect clinical, molecular and radiologic data including detailed clinical parameters, molecular pathology (1p/19q co-deletion, MGMT methylation, IDH and TERTp mutations, etc) and images of HE slices in primary gliomas. By leveraging artificial intelligence, this registry will seek to construct and refine histopathology image based algorithms that …
Noninvasive Pre-surgical Evaluation of Patients With Focal Epilepsy and Establishment of a Normative Imaging Database
Objectives The overall study objective is to compare the sensitivities and specificities of morphometric analysis techniques using structural MRI images based on pre- and postsurgical localization of epileptic foci in patients undergoing presurgical evaluation for medically refractory epilepsy. To carry out these analyses, we aim to establish an age-stratified normative …
