Gait Analysis and Degenerative Spine
The goal of this observational study is to analyse the biomechanics of a degenerative spinal disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the biomechanical variables affected by the disease How they evolve with disease progression and treatment
Cannabis Observations on Brain Waves, Retrieval, and Attention: Experiment 3
This study investigates the impact of ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) on recognition memory in healthy, regular cannabis users. Participants complete the same recognition memory task after self-administering one of two different strains of cannabis flower one day and while not intoxicated another day. Event-related potentials (ERPs) are measured via …
Feasibility of Nurse-performed Gastric Ultrasound After Surgery
Gastric ultrasound is a quick and non-invasive tool to evaluate gastric content. Emptying of gastric content can be affected after abdominal surgery leading to the inability of tolerating oral foods. Gastric content can be assessed by gastric ultrasound and nurses were recently trained to do so in healthy volunteers; however, …
Investigation of Respiratory Muscle Sarcopenia in Patients with Systemic Sclerosis
The aim of this study was to investigate respiratory muscle sarcopenia in individuals with systemic sclerosis. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the prevalence of respiratory muscle sarcopenia in patients with systemic sclerosis? Participants body composition (bioelectrical impedance), hand grip strength (hand dynanometer), physical performance tests …
Qualitative Study of Emotional Regulation in Schizophrenia
The main aim of this study is to investigate emotional regulation in individuals with schizophrenia using a qualitative methodology (semi-structured interview) and, therefore, from the person's point of view. Given the qualitative nature of the methodology used in this study, the investigators have no specific hypothesis. The investigators have a …
Deep Learning Diagnostic and Risk-stratification for IPF and COPD
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are severe, progressive, irreversibly incapacitating pulmonary disorders with modest response to therapeutic interventions and poor prognosis. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is important to enable patients to receive appropriate care at the earliest possible stage to delay …
Donor Site Morbidity After Free Vascularized Fibular Graft
This study was carried out at Assiut University to Asses the long-term donor site morbidity following free vascularized fibular transfer because there is a limited information regarding the long-term donor morbidity of this type of flap.
IDENTIFICATION OF BIOMARKERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SEVERITY AND RADIO-CLINICAL PROGRESSION OF KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is an heterogeneous disease, both symptomatically and structurally, with very different evolving profiles. Although several serum, urinary or synovial biomarkers have been developed in knee OA, their interest as potential predictive factors of clinical and structural progression remains poorly known. Similarly, to date, no biological predictive markers …
Routine Endoscopic Evaluation of Colorectal Anastomoses for Early Detection of Anastomotic Leakage
The objective of this international prospective observational study is to evaluate the implementation of a point-of-care digital rectoscope (LumenEye) into routine care to detect colorectal anastomotic leakage in the early postoperative period. The study includes patients undergoing a colorectal resection with colorectal or coloanal anastomosis ≤15 centimeters from the anorectal …
