PeRfusiOn Post tHrombEcTomy (PROPHET)
Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy is the standard of care for treating patients with a large-vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke. However, in more than half of these patients, remaining distal vessel occlusions limit the benefit of this therapy. Currently the detection of residual vessel occlusions and the decision for further treatment by …
Cellular Immunity, Neuroendocrine, and Inflammatory Factors for Clinical Prognosis in Acute Coronary Syndrome
In acute coronary syndrome (ACS), there is an increase in cortisol levels, as an expression of the stress response, and C-reactive protein, as an expression of the inflammatory response, which are in turn associated with changes in the components of cellular immunity, and ultimately are predictors of clinical events. The …
Non-invasive Blood Pressure Monitoring in Carotid Surgery
Carotid endarterectomy surgery carries significant neurological and cardiac risks, requiring continuous monitoring of blood pressure. In standard practice, this monitoring is carried out using an arterial catheter inserted at the start of the operation. This invasive procedure is generally not well received by the patient and is a source of …
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 …

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, …
