Breathing-Maneuver-Induced Myocardial Oxygenation Reserve Validated by FFR (B-MORE)
The study aims to determine a diagnostic marker for regionally impaired myocardial oxygenation response in patients with suspected coronary artery stenosis.
A Study of Mycophenolate Mofetil Combined With Glucocorticoid Therapy in Relapse Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada Disease
This project is designed to test the hypothesis that Mycophenolate Mofetil is clinically useful for patients with relapse Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease
Relationship Between Sleep EEG, Intraoperative EEG and Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction
The challenge of new recommendations and better adapted practices is pushing to operate patients who are getting older and more fragile. In this context, there is an inevitable increase in the risks associated with care and in particular perioperative neurological complications, of which postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is the most …
Knee-Hip-Spine Harmony: The Relationship Between Sagittal Spinal Alignment in Total Hip/Knee Arthroplasty
Concomitant osteoarthritis of hip/knee joint and lumbar spinal degeneration is commonly seen in elderly population. These degeneration changes of spine would change sagittal or coronal alignment and spinal flexibility in varies degrees. Total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA) are among the most successful orthopedic operations performed, aiming at the alleviation …
Oral Hedgehog Inhibitors in the Treatment of Basal Cell Carcinoma in the Netherlands: a Prospective Registration Study
Background: Oral hedgehog inhibitors vismodegib and sonidegib have been used for the treatment of locally advanced (laBCC), metastatic basal cell carcinoma (mBCC) and in basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS) patients. In the Netherlands, targeted therapy with vismodegib and sonidegib has been available since 2013 and 2021, respectively. No direct comparative …
Combined TACE, TKI/Anti-VEGF and ICIs as Conversion Therapy for Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
The aim of this study is to the efficacy, prognosis, adverse effects, and factors for predicting therapeutic effects and clinical prognosis of combined therapy of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), Anti-VEGF antibodies or pan-target anti-angiogenic drugs, and anti-PD-1/ PD-L1 antibody for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma which initially unsuitable for the radical therapy, including …
Advanced Therapies for Liver Metastases
Liver metastases (MTS) are the main cause of death for patients affected by colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), thus representing the major unmet clinical need for these malignancies. Based on preliminary and published data, the investigators hypothesize that innovative immune, gene and cell therapy approaches might overcome …
5 Years' Follow-up Assessment of Surgical Repair for ACL Proximal Rupture
Isolated ruptures of ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) are ligament injuries that can be proximal, central or distal. Treatment of patients with proximal lesions should be graded. Functional treatment can be reserved for low-demanding patients in whom the practice level is limited and progression risk to a functionally unstable knee less …
Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE) and Simulation : a Preferred Learning Path
Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has gradually become the technique of choice for continuous functional examination of the heart despite the significant training required for its interpretation. It has proven to be the safest, fastest, and most reliable technique for diagnosing most intra- and postoperative hemodynamic problems. Indeed, the transesophageal route is …
Extracellular Vesicles as Potential Biomarkers and Therapeutic Target in Gaucher Disease
This is an observational study intended to generate preliminary data to understand how lysosomal dysfunction can affect the biogenesis of extracellular vesicles, its content and function. The primary objective of the proposed project is to decipher how extracellular vesicle (EV) biogenesis and its role in intercellular communication can be impaired …
