Analysis of Parental Support in Families Using the LENA After Early Cochlear Implantation
The language environment that influences the child's language development has been studied using different subjective tools, mainly audio and/or video recording and manual transcriptions. The linguistic results of the implanted deaf child are dependent on the age at the implant, but also on the auditory and linguistic stimulation in the …
Surgical Resection Outcomes in Patients With Brain Metastasis
While many studies have investigated the prognostic factors for patients undergoing surgical resection for primary brain tumors, decision-making for patients with brain metastasis (BM) is more complex because of their higher burden of comorbidities compared to those with primary brain tumors. In addition, although various prognostic indicators have been identified …
Carbon Footprint Assessment for Robotic, Laparoscopic and Open Colorectal Operations to Enhance Environmental Sustainability
The goal of this study is to conduct a life cycle assessment of robotic, laparoscopic and open colorectal procedures and compare their climate impact. Further the investigators want to identify major targets for possible reduction in the CO2 footprint in colorectal procedures. The main questions are: Researchers will identify used …
Stillbirth Risk Identification Using Multiparametric Ultrasound
The goal of this observational study is to identify a novel biomarker for stillbirth. Specifically the aim is to predict perinatal hypoxia using quantitative ultrasound from the placenta (QUS-P) between 35 and 37 weeks gestation.
Patients Diagnosed With Scleroderma and Their Chewing and Swallowing Performance
It is recommended to focus on the physical functionality, chewing, and swallowing performance of individuals diagnosed with scleroderma. There is a need to address children and adults diagnosed with scleroderma comprehensively and to evaluate them on a biopsychosocial basis to support their disease management. The aim was to assess the …
A Real-world Study of Adebrelimab Combined With Chemotherapy±Chest Radiotherapy in Patients With Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and safety of patients who receive Adebrelimab combined with chemotherapy±chest radiotherapy as first-line treatment of extensive stage small cell lung cancer in the real world.
WeRoaM: Wearable Remote Monitoring in Heart Failure
Remote physiologic monitoring (RPM) of heart failure (HF) patients with a virtual platform is well established in adult care. However, this technology remains untested in pediatrics and care continues to rely on a hospital-based model which presents challenges in providing equitable access to care for those with lower socio-economic status …
The Role of Nutrition in Muscle Function of Bariatric Surgery Patients
Current recommendations for protein intake after bariatric surgery are not based on strong scientific evidence. It remains unclear how much protein should be eaten to minimize muscle loss and preserve the metabolism and function of individuals post-bariatric surgery. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationships between changes …
Novel Hypoxia Imaging for Head and Neck Cancer: Imaging Phenotype for Personalized Treatment
Tumor hypoxia is one of the physiological factors for treatment resistance and likely contributes to poor overall survival among patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). Identifying hypoxic features of HNC may allow the personalizing treatment plan. The investigators propose multiparametric Hypoxia MR (HMR) imaging using diffusion, perfusion, and oxygenation …
Estimating Jaw, Neck, and Shoulder Range of Motion Using an AI Model
This observational study aims to develop an AI-based system for tracking mandibular and shoulder movements using deep learning techniques. It will compare AI-generated pose estimations with gold standard measurements to assess accuracy, particularly in patients with functional impairments from oral cancer treatment, such as trismus, spinal accessory nerve dysfunction, neck …
