Estimating Risk of Respiratory Infections Attributable to CFTR Heterozygosity
A research team member will brush the inferior surface of the subjects' middle turbinate (nasal cavity) using a cytology brush to obtain the cells needed to perform our functional respiratory assays. An individual trained in phlebotomy will draw one 3 ml lavender top tube of blood to test c-reactive protein, …
Finding the Invasive Haemodynamic Threshold for Symptom Relief in Stable Angina
ORBITA-FIRE is a randomised, double-blinded, placebo controlled experimental study that will identify the fractional flow reserve (FFR) and non-hyperemic pressure ratio (NHPR) thresholds that correlate with symptoms of angina for 58 patients measured invasively under experimental conditions.

Factors probably influencing the microbiota are the maternal microbiota and the general environment in Switzerland. However, the development of the intestinal microbiota is incompletely understood. Gaining knowledge of the trajectory …
Transcriptome Profiling and Endometrial Receptivity
The aim of this study is to correlate and identify the biochemical markers which may reflect WOI. Blood samples will be collected and endometrial biopsy will be performed at particular time points.
RV Conductance Catheter Assessment During Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty
Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) treats patients with inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Intra-procedural markers of success to guide the intervention are lacking. The investigators propose to measure right ventricular (RV) pressure volume loops invasively and measure biomarkers at intervals during the course of a course of BPA. These data …
A Study to Learn More About the Health of Persons With Down Syndrome After Treatment for Acute Leukemia
This study attempts to learn more about the health of persons with Down syndrome after treatment for acute leukemia. Children with Down syndrome are at increased risk for side effects during treatment for acute leukemia, but it is unclear of their risk for long-term effects of cancer treatment. By learning …
Comparison of the Cosmetic Results, Quality of Life and Patient Satisfaction Achieved With Round-block and Retroglandular Oncoplastic Breast Conserving Surgeries
The aim of this clinical study is to analyze due long term follow-up, the clinical, oncological, aesthetic results and patients' reported quality of life and satisfaction in a responsive-adaptive (RAR) prospective, randomized study at a large number of patients whom receive round-block and retroglandular oncoplastic breast conserving surgeries. According to …
