Development of Innovative Preclinical Ex Vivo Models for the Study of Sarcomas and Metastases From Solid Tumors
The goal of this observational study is to learn how tumor tissue and blood samples from patients with sarcomas or metastases can be used to create laboratory models that help researchers study cancer behavior and test new treatments. Participants diagnosed with sarcoma or with bone or lung metastases from solid …
Breath Analysis for the Detection of Invasive Fungal Infections
Patients with leukemia and concomitant neutropenia are at high risk of developing invasive fungal infections (IFI) that are associated with high morbidity and mortality. As these patients typically have severe thrombocytopenia, direct diagnostic sampling with invasive procedures is often not possible due to the high peri-interventional risk. Therefore, the presumptive …
Study to Evaluate the Usability and Value of Integrated Digital Solutions in Medical Care of Participants With Multiple Sclerosis
The main purpose of this study is to assess the usability and value of the multiple sclerosis (MS) care management platform in terms of improved monitoring of people with MS (pwMS) in clinical practice. This is a two-year prospective data collection study with additional data collection at baseline evaluating medical …
Wearable Electronic Breath Sound Sensing Device
This study will assess the ability of a wearable stethoscope to monitor wheezing in high-risk asthma patients admitted at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. This study is important to assist in the health management of patients with chronic lung diseases that can experience exacerbations leading to their health worsening and requiring …
Biomarkers of Resiliency in Childhood Cancer Surgery
This observational study is to better understand how children and their families recover after the stress of major surgery for cancer so that investigators can create ways to improve resilience during recovery. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can information obtained from patients and their caregivers wearing smartwatches …
Study for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Drug-resistant Focal Epilepsies
Epilepsy is a clinical condition that affects about fifty million people worldwide, with an estimated occurrence of 16-51 new cases per 100,000 people each year. In 60% of these patients, the origin of seizures is due to a localized (focal) alteration of the brain. In about 25 percent of patients …
Cyberchondria and Stress in Women Undergoing Infertility Treatment
This study examines how searching for health information on the internet may affect stress and emotional well-being in women undergoing infertility treatment. Infertility is a common condition that impacts about 48 million couples worldwide and can cause not only physical challenges but also significant emotional strain, including anxiety, depression, and …
Clinical Application Study of [123I]Metaiodobenzylguanidine and Somatostatin Receptor-Targeted Imaging in the Diagnosis and Staging of Neuroblastoma
The goal of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of ¹²³I-MIBG SPECT/CT and SSTR PET in Chinese children with suspected or confirmed neuroblastoma (NB). The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the sensitivity and specificity of each modality-alone and combined-for initial staging and …
Searching for Novel Therapeutic Approaches in Migraine Patients Resistant to Treatments
Primary working hypothesis is that NON-responders to mAbs bear a dysfunction of the endocannabidiome system (eCBome), as suggested by pre-clinical and clinical data by our group. They will be identified as patients showing a reduction of monthly migraine days < 50% after three months of treatment. The clinical, biochemical and …
Phosphorylated Tau Levels in Donated Blood
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by the accumulation of tau pathology, and blood-based biomarkers such as phosphorylated tau-217 (pTau217) have been identified as sensitive and specific predictors of AD risk. Recent studies suggest that individuals with elevated pTau217 levels may be at increased risk for developing AD and cognitive dysfunction. …
