PEEP Titration and Lung Recruitment Potential Assessed by 3D EIT
In a population of ARDS patients, we explore the influence of different PEEP levels on regional ventilation distribution, ventilation homogeneity, and the center of ventilation, optimal PEEP and lung recruitment potential as well as the extent of lung collapse and overdistension as detected by 3D-EIT.
Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NET's) in Prevalent Kidney Stone
Neutrophils are first responders to any kind of threat the body faces: infection, severe trauma, cancer, surgery... They produce the cytokines, induct oxidative stress and de-granulate toxic proteins to kill pathogens. However the new mechanism related to the neutrophil extracellular traps release has been recognized as a new way of …
Comparative Study Between Immediate Surgery Versus Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Management of Resectable Pancreatic Cancer
This trial aimed to determine whether neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy improves overall survival compared with upfront surgery, both followed by adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with resectable and borderline resectable pancreatic cancer.
Unveiling the Germline Predisposition to Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
The classic Ph-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are a group of clonal hematopoietic disorders caused by a dysregulated JAK/STAT signal transduction because of acquired somatic mutations of JAK2, CALR or MPL genes. They are sporadic diseases but there are several lines of evidence that support the role of germline factors in …
The Impact of Systemic Light Chain Amyloidosis on Eyes
Study Purpose and Principle: Amyloidosis is a group of diseases characterized by the deposition of amyloid proteins in tissues and organs throughout the body, with common affected organs including kidneys, heart, nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and liver. Nowadays, nearly 40 different proteins have been found to form amyloid fibrils in …

The secondary aim of the study was to measure the knowledge level of dementia and urinary incontinence in the …
Osteosarcopenia in Axial Spondyloarthritis
Axial spondyloarthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the spine, sacroiliac joints, entheses, and sometimes peripheral joints with a close link to HLAB27. Typical features include inflammatory back pain, limited spinal mobility, and sacroiliitis. The term axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) includes both Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) where sacroiliitis is diagnosed by X-rays, …
Greater Manchester CARDIOvascular Pathology in Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases
The researchers would like to know more about cardiovascular abnormalities in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID) and with the aim to provide new biomarkers (clinical, blood, imaging) for early diagnosis, prognosis and prediction of CVD in patients with IMID. This is important as there are still many things that …
Prediction of ADHD in Children Using Pedobarographic and Postural Data
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential of postural control and plantar pressure data in predicting Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in middle school students using machine learning methods. A total of 100 students will participate, including those identified with symptoms of ADHD and healthy controls. Participants …
Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio in Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) stands as one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) lead to rapid respiratory function decline and worsened disease status. Despite recent studies, the ability of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) to predict outcomes in patients with COPD remains controversial. It …
