Adipose Cellular Kinetics of Lipedema
Lipedema is characterized by an abnormal deposition of adipose tissue, resulting in fluid accumulation, limb enlargement, and pain. Lipedema is often misdiagnosed as simply obesity. A major challenge with diagnosis is the poorly understood biology underlying the disease. Limited studies suggest that the development of lipedema may involve adipocyte hypertrophy, …
Neutrophil Phenotypic Profiling and Acute Lung Injury in Patients After Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)
Acute lung injury (ALI) following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a serious complication, often prolonging the length of stay in ICU and potentially dealing to mortality. The objective of this study is to assess the mechanism of CPB-mediated acute lung injury in pediatric patients.

The EMINENCE Study - PET/MR Imaging of Head Neck Cancer
Head and neck cancers (HNC) often receive radiotherapy as part of their treatment. However, unacceptable failure rates and severe side effects remain a challenge. The improvements in radiotherapy are closely related to improvements in medical imaging. Functional imaging, where intratumoural characteristics such as tumour oxygenation, metabolism, and blood vessel function …
Complex Adult Deformity Surgery (CADS)
Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients, including radiographic and clinical outcomes, surgical and postoperative complications, risk factors for and revision surgery rates, and the role of standard work to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical and postoperative complications.
Development of a Video Game for the Improvement of Outcomes in Stem Cell Transplant Survivors
This trial collects feedback from patients to develop a video game in improving the outcomes in stem cell transplant survivors. A video game may help to improve health behaviors for leukemia or lymphoma patients after stem cell transplant.
Missing Microbes in Infants Born by Cesarean Section
General adult healthy pregnant females in total 400, as well as their infants will be recruited. It is expected 67% will be vaginally delivered and 33% will be C Section deliveries. It is expected that of these groups that 40% of these women will be treated with antibiotics during their …
89Zr-Bevacizumab PET/CT Imaging in NF2 Patients
Bevacizumab can be an effective treatment for individuals with NF2 and improve different nerve functions (like hearing, tinnitus or balance problems) and the quality of life of NF2 patients. However, bevacizumab is not effective in all patients or all tumors, at the cost of moderate toxicity and considerable financial burden. …
Radiotherapy Combined With PD-1 Inhibitors and Chemotherapy in the Treatment of NSCLC Patients With Symptomatic Brain Metastases
This is a prospective, single-center observational clinical study aimed at the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitors and chemotherapy in the treatment of Chinese patients with symptomatic NSCLC with brain metastases.
Understanding CARdiac Events in Breast Cancer
In Ireland, over 3,000 patients are diagnosed with breast cancer annually, and 1 in 9 Irish women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. There is evidence that female breast cancer survivors are more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than their age-matched counterparts. This research is focused …
