New Strategies for Assessment of the Persistence of Viable Bacilli in Latent and Active Tuberculosis
Current diagnostic tools such as interferon gamma release assay (IGRA) and purified protein derivative (PPD) can not distinguish patients with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and persistence of live mycobacteria. This inability to rule out living mycobacteria in patients investigated for LTBI leads to unnecessary and potentially harmful treatment regimes all …
Collection of Research Data and Samples From Patients Who Experience Immunotherapy Side Effects
This trial collects research data and samples from patients who experience immunotherapy side effects to store for use in future research studies. Studying research data and samples from patients who experience immunotherapy side effects may help researchers better understand how to predict, prevent, and treat these side effects.
The PEACE (Posthumous Evaluation of Advanced Cancer Environment) Study
Historically, cancer research has been limited by sample acquisition in late stage disease, often restricted to single sites of disease with limited parallel clinical data collection in terms of prior therapy exposure. The PEACE study is intended to facilitate tissue donation from multiple tumour sites in the post-mortem setting and …
The Neonatal Hemorrhagic Risk Assessment in Thrombocytopenia
This is a prospective observational study designed to evaluate Immature Platelet Fraction or Immature Platelet Count and Platelet Function Analyzer-100/200 Closure Time-ADP (in vitro bleeding time) as markers of bleeding risk in thrombocytopenic preterm neonates admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
The Influence of Internet + Combined Family Empowerment Management Mode on Treatment Compliance of PATIENTS With CKD
To explore the effect of Internet + combined family empowerment management mode on treatment compliance of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the correlation between psychological status and disease progression.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease (CMT) Biological Sample Collection for iPSC Generation and Biobanking
The New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute is performing this research to accelerate Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease research and drug development by using cells from the body (such as skin or blood cells) to make stem cells and other types of cells, conduct research on the samples, perform genetic testing, …
Detection of Microplastics in Human Granulosa Cells and in the Follicular Fluid of Women Undergoing ICSI Treatment
Plastic products have been used ubiquitously in the modern world for many decades - for example as packaging materials, textile fibers or molded parts. The general use and especially the improper disposal lead to enormous environmental pollution almost everywhere on earth. Microplastics mainly originate from fragmentation of larger plastic objects …
The GENPET Study - An Imaging Study of FCH-PET-CT in Men With Prostate Cancer and a BRCA Gene Mutation.
The aim of the study is to determine if PET-CT imaging (using contrast recommended in clinical guidelines) is superior to combined bone scan and MRI/CT of the abdomen & pelvis in detecting the increased incidence of metastasis (nodal/distant outside the pelvis) in men with prostatic carcinoma with germline BRCA mutations.
Precision Medicine for Stem Cell Transplantation
A study of patients undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, a procedure in which patients are infused with stem cells from a donor, resulting in a new immune system that eliminates cancer or replaces diseased bone marrow. This study aims to develop new blood tests that predict the onset of acute …
Diagnosis of Adrenal Insufficiency in Liver Cirrhosis Patients
Patients with liver cirrhosis (LC) often exhibit fatigue, poor oral intake, and abdominal discomfort, which are the symptoms that are also shown in subjects with adrenal insufficiency (AI). Controversy exists upon over-diagnosis of adrenal insufficiency in patients with LC, because decreased albumin and/or cortisol binding protein lower total cortisol levels …
