Ultrasound Imaging of Fibrotic Tissue
This project intends to collect the ultrasonic spectrum information of shoulder and knee joint fibrotic tissue, and use machine learning to study the mechanism of fibrosis tissue ultrasound imaging, and then build a model and finally establish the relationship between joint stiffness and fibrosis formation. In this study, the broadband …
Circulating Biomarkers in the Development of Type 1 Diabetes
More than 100 million U.S. adults are now living with diabetes or prediabetes. Investigators still do not fully understand how diabetes develops and how the disease worsens. Insulin is a hormone that helps the body use sugar as a fuel and control blood-sugar levels. People with diabetes have problems making …
The Voice as a Tool to Detect Recurrence of Laryngeal and Hypopharyngeal Cancer
The investigators will obtain three-monthly voice recordings and fiberendoscopic examinations of the larynx/hypopharynx for a minimal period of 6 months from all laryngeal/hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC/HPSCC) patients, who have successfully completed curative primary treatment, except those who underwent total laryngectomy. Furthermore, the investigators will ask the patients to fill …
The Research Plan of Taiwan Precision Medicine
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the top three most common cancers in Taiwan. Targetable driver mutations in NSCLC are more prevalent in Asian population compared to those in Western population, which offers chances to apply suitable targeted therapies worldwide. For patients who failed to the treatment of tyrosine …
Hippocampal Volume and Memory Functions in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Neuropsychological and functional long-term consequences of subarachnoid hemorrhages (SAH) represent a great challenge, since sometimes considerable cognitive deficits occur without evidence of substantial brain damage. In this study, we want to examine if the frequently observed memory deficits are associated with hippocampal atrophy.
Children and Adults With Chordoma
Background Chordoma is a rare type of bone cancer. It occurs in the skull base or spine. Researchers want to study people with chordoma in different ways. They hope this will help them design better future treatments and supportive care studies for this disease. Objective To learn more about chordoma …

The investigator's purpose is to study the population pharmacokinetics of commonly used antimicrobial agents in children of bacterial meningitis with augmented renal clearance and assess dosage individualization feasibility.
Metagenomic Study in Parapneumonic Effusion
Objective: To identify known and unknown bacterial pathogens in patients with pleural infections using a combination of conventional culture and next-generation sequencing approaches. Hypothesis to be tested: The investigators hypothesize that next-generation sequencing will serve as a comprehensive approach to identify culturable and unculturable bacterial pathogens in patients with pleural …
