Connective Tissue Diseases and Lung Manifestations
Despite a number of prospective studies already initiated in the past years, the current epidemiology and course of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with connective tissue disease (CTD) is still not well defined, particularly regarding its prevalence, incidence and the management of a broad spectrum …
Rare CFTR Mutation Cell Collection Protocol (RARE)
Over 1,900 mutations in the gene for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein are implicated in causing Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Potential therapies that directly target defective CFTR are being evaluated in important clinical trials, but most target the most common CFTR mutation F508del. Many patients with rare CF …
Study of Imaginomics Predicting Early Surgical Rates in Crohn's Disease
Crohn's disease (CD), a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), is a chronic intestinal recurrent inflammatory disease involving the entire digestive tract. Most CD patients require surgery for complications, including stenosis, perforation, and severe intestinal bleeding. Predicting early-onset surgery risk is of great importance to assist launching of therapeutic strategies. …
Follicular Fluid Exosome miRNA During Oocyte Maturation
Folliculogenesis involves the recruitment of primordial follicles into a group of growing follicles in which eventually one follicle is selected, matured and ovulated. Complex endocrine and intra-ovarian paracrine interactions occur to create a changing intra-follicular hormonal milieu suitable for oocyte development. However, this oocyte developmental competence and to undergo fertilization …
Personalized Signature of Chronic Inflammation and Early Aging Predictive of the Comorbidities in Infertile Men
The aim of the project is identify new biomarkers and/or prognostic factors in order to develop personalized strategies to prevent the onset of tumor and/or non tumor comorbidity in infertile men.
Evaluation of the SickKids Team Obesity Management Program
In January 2010 a new interdisciplinary clinic (STOMP) was created to provide care for children and adolescents with severe 'complex' obesity. As part of the program, a subset of adolescents undergo bariatric surgery. There is a paucity of literature evaluating outcomes of children and adolescents participating in a 'clinical' setting …
Assessment of Skeletal Maturity Using Proximal Femoral Epiphysis in Patients With Scoliosis
This study aims to explore the use of proximal femoral head for the assessment of skeletal maturity in patients with idiopathic scoliosis. The aim is to validate the use of the stages of proximal femoral epiphyseal closure in assessing pubertal growth landmarks in this patient cohort. The grading system of …
ENDOBARC-S Study: "Endovascular Branched Stent-grafts for Aortic ARCh Pathologies in Spain"
The ENDOBARC-S post-market clinical follow-up study is undertaken to evaluate the prevention of death related to aortic arch pathologies when treated by branch stent graft systems (Nexus stent-graft system®, Relay Branch® or Zenith arch branch graft®), with proximal landing at zone 0. The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety …
Atrial Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Patients With Repaired Congenital Heart Disease
In this research study the investigators want to learn more about how well the investigators can visualize scar tissue in the heart by MRI. In patients with congenital heart disease who need a procedure in the electrophysiology laboratory, how the MRI findings match the findings in the electrophysiology laboratory is …
Intracranial PrEssure Time dOse (ImPETO)
The new Integra CereLink ICP monitor integrate the possibility of recording and displaying continuously the AUC (Pressure Time Dose, PTD) and other ICP derived variables and provide the possibility of evaluating the utility of this information at the bedside. It offers the opportunity to test in a standardized way the …
