Effect of Transpulmonary MP on Prognosis of Patients With Severe ARDS Treated With VV-ECMO
Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is a salvage treatment for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). With the large-scale implementation of VV-ECMO in critical care medicine departments in China, significant progress has been made in treating severe ARDS. However, the patient mortality rate remains high. The pathophysiological essence of ARDS …
Talus Replacement Registry
Avascular necrosis of the talus is a difficult problem to manage, especially in the young and healthy. The only option, historically, has been a talectomy and hindfoot fusion. While this is a viable option, it is not without its morbidity. Arthritis of surrounding joints is common, occurring anywhere from 1-10 …
Development of a Device for Evaluating Primary Hemostasis Under Whole Blood Flow Conditions
Currently, the exploration of primary hemostasis (a physiological phenomenon used to stop bleeding) is imperfect because it is based on targeted tests for platelets or von Willebrand factor, without taking into account blood flow and other blood cells (red and white blood cells). Tests for whole blood and flow conditions …
Study of CAR-T Therapy in Older Patients
This study is being done to find out how older patients respond to CAR-T cell therapy and how the treatment affects their quality of life. This is a quality of life study and participating in the study does not involve receiving any treatment, other than the standard treatment for participants' …
I-125 Seeds Implantation in the Treatment of Recurrent Lung Cancer After Radiotherapy
Patients with recurrence after radiotherapy are often encountered in clinical practice.Patients with recurrence after radiotherapy are less likely to undergo surgery or secondary radiotherapy, and the guidelines recommend only systemic therapy, although the effective rate is relatively low.For patients with local recurrence without distant metastasis, local treatment is still significant.Radioactive …
CIRCULATing Biomarkers for Individualized Surgical Therapy in gastroEsophageal Cancer - Phase 1
This is an exploratory observational biomarker study in approximately 100 eligible patients with resectable adenocarcinomas of the esophagus and gastro- esophageal junction (GEJ) type I-II (GEAC) to investigate the difference deletion frequency of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) between peripheral veins and tumor-draining veins (primary endpoint), prognostic value, relevance of a …
A Prospective Cohort Study of Myasthenia Gravis in China
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to investigate long-term therapeutic strategies for myasthenia gravis (MG) and identify potential biomarkers. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether low-dose oral steroids may lead to a reduction in the recurrence rate among patients with MG. To identify potential biomarkers …
Development of IPS from Donated Somatic Cells of Patients with Neurological Diseases
Human fibroblasts and possibly other human somatic cells may be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by the forced expression of transcription factors (1-5). The iPS cells seem to share many properties with human embryonic stem cells. Induced pluripotent stem cells potentially may be useful in the future as …
Study of Locomotor Expectations for Ascending/Descending Slope and Stairs in Patients With Limb Amputations
Patients with lower limb amputations are equipped with prostheses that can be mechanical and/or electronic. These prostheses can be mono-articular (only the ankle) or bi-articular (knee and ankle for example). For amputee patients, situations that may seem trivial, such as climbing and descending stairs, become complex. Thus during the descent …
Histopathological Analysis of Renal Biopsies With Dynamic Full-field Optical Coherence Tomography, a Comparison to Conventional Histopathological Findings for the Diagnosis of Either Acute Kidney Injury or Chronic Kidney Disease in Routine Practices (NEPHROCT)
Kidney biopsy play a key role for the investigation of either acute kidney injury or chronic kidney disease. Despite possible complications due to the invasive nature of the biopsy, such procedure is still essential in a number of clinical situations to improve the diagnosis specificity of kidney disease, better inform …
