Circulating Tumor DNA Study in Patients With Endometrial Cancer
The objective of this study is to identify a population at risk of early recurrence after oncologic resection surgery of a primary uterine tumor based on the detection of ctDNA
A Pilot Study to Evaluate Multi-Spectral and Laser Speckle Imaging and Multiphoton Microscopy During Vascular Occlusion
The purpose of this research is to evaluate and validate the performance of non-invasive imaging modalities for assessment of skin. A pressure cuff occlusion will be used to stimulate blood flow dynamic that these instruments are designed to sense. The researcher currently plan to assess only basic feasibility of the …
Assessment and Follow-up of Surgical Treatment of Hemivertebra in Children
The treatment of child's vertebral malformations has evolved a lot including the realization of surgical vertebral resections. The surgical techniques used are multiple, require heavy surgery, one or more approaches and surgical time, transfusions, a neurological risk (up to 20% in some series, risk of non-consolidation, insufficient correction). These surgical …
Effect of Altitude on Postdural Puncture Headache After Caesarean Delivery
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of altitude (high altitude versus low altitude) on incidence and severity of postural puncture headache (PDPH) following spinal anaesthesia for caesarean delivery. The investigators hypothesized that the risk of PDPH would be higher in highlander parturients than in lowlander parturients.
Study on Brain Function of Obesity Classification
The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences and similarities of brain function in patients with four subtypes of obesity, and the relationship between brain function changes and complications after weight loss and metabolic improvement. 120 patients with obesity and 30 healthy individuals with normal BMI were enrolled.
Transformative Research in Diabetic Nephropathy
This is a prospective, observational, cohort study of patients with a clinical diagnosis of diabetes who are undergoing clinically indicated kidney biopsy. The intent is to collect, process, and study kidney tissue and to harvest blood, urine and genetic materials to elucidate molecular pathways and link them to biomarkers that …
Office-Based Superior Laryngeal Nerve Block for Treatment of Neurogenic Cough
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if office-based injection of a local anesthetic/steroid combination at the area of one superior laryngeal nerve can decrease cough frequency and alleviate symptoms of chronic cough in patients with neurogenic cough.
Quality of Life in Normogonadotropic Anovulation
Among the causes of ovulation disorders (group II of anovulation according to the World Health Organization classification), the dominant one is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and the remaining cases are classified as Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Ovarian Axis Dysfunction (HPOD). The exact etiology of both entities is unknown. To diagnose PCOS, the Rotterdam criteria …
Sleep Disordered Breathing, Endothelial Function, and Adverse Events in Pregnancy
This is a prospective longitudinal cohort study whereby pregnant individuals are asked to complete an 8-day testing protocol to measure their sleep and cardiovascular health at two timepoints during pregnancy.
DBS and Respiration
Patients referred to neurosurgery routinely and safely undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) for treatment of neurological conditions, most commonly Parkinson's disease. The investigators have observed that respiratory problems (breathlessness) sometimes occur subsequent to DBS of the subthalamic nucleus (STN). This study aims to determine whether this is indeed a consequence …
