Association Between Local Cerebral Oxygenation Monitoring and Postoperative Delirium in Carotid Endarterectomy
Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common perioperative complication, which can lead to adverse outcomes. Patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy (CEA) were elderly, complicated with vascular risk factors, cognitive dysfunction, some also had a history of stroke, and the circulation fluctuated greatly during the operation, often resulting in hypoperfusion of cerebral tissue …
The Role of IL-23-Responsive Immune Cell Subsets in Post-Operative Recurrence in Patients With Crohn's Disease.
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBDs), including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease (CD), constitute a group of debilitating chronic diseases that profoundly impact patient quality of life and incurs large costs in terms of treatment and lost productivity. Incidence of IBD is rising worldwide, and there is a pressing clinical need for …
Exploring Novel Biomarkers for Emphysema Detection
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether voice or capnometry, alone or in combination with other (non invasive) biomarkers can be used to detect emphysema on chest CT-scan in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The main question it aims to answer is: • Can a …
Imaging of Lungs With a New Type of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Called UTE (Ultrashort Echo Time)
This research study has 2 purposes: To learn about new ways to use Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to take clearer pictures of the lungs. A type of MRI called Ultra Short Echo Time (UTE) will be used as well as traditional MRI. To collect images and health information about lungs …
Soluble ST2 and Cardiovascular Outcome
Cardiac surgery induces hemodynamic stress on the myocardium, and this process can be associated with significant cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2) is biomarker of myocardial remodeling and fibrosis; however, little is known regarding their potential association with cardiovascular events. This study aimed to investigate the …
Udall Project 1 Aim 4
By defining the strength and direction of connectivity patterns at rest and during movement across the basal ganglia-thalamocortical (BGTC) network we will characterize the role of individual circuits in motor performance and cognitive function, paving the way for future development of optimization algorithms for DBS that take advantage of this …
Change in Brain Perfusion During Induction of General Anesthesia
Arterial hypotension during general anesthesia remains a factor of poor outcomes, increases the risk of myocardial infarction, acute kidney injury and 1-year mortality. Furthermore, arterial hypotension may also decrease cerebral perfusion contributing to worsen neurological outcome. It seems necessary to monitor cerebral perfusion during anesthesia and to define individual dynamic …
Drug Reactions Sampling (COLLECTIONTOXIDERMIES)
Intro: Dermatology department of Henri Mondor Hospital (Creteil, France), is a reference center for toxic bullous diseases and severe cutaneous drug reactions (Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), Lyell syndrome (toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN)), generalized bullous fixed drug reactions, AGEP, DRESS, drug induced immunoglobulin A (IgA) bullous dermatosis, and erythema multiforme). In order …
Persons With Dementia and Their Extended Family Caregivers
Immediate family members shoulder the majority of care responsibilities for persons living with dementia. However, due to various societal changes, elder care responsibilities have expanded to extended family members, including grandchildren, siblings, nieces/nephews, siblings, and step-kin. The main objective of this study is to understand the caregiving journeys of various …
Gynecologic Extramammary Paget's Disease
In addition to evaluating treatment outcomes, tissue samples and swabs will be collected as part of this study to allow physicians to better understand Extramammary Paget's Disease (EMPD). The researchers also want to learn more about the microorganisms (microbiome) that live on or near the areas of skin affected by …
