The Application of DNA Nanomachines for Detecting microRNA in Blood for the Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer. Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer
Previous research has shown that microRNAs in the blood can serve as biomarkers for early pancreatic cancer, with potential applications including detection, differential diagnosis, and prognosis prediction of pancreatic cancer. The current primary method for detecting microRNAs is RT-qPCR, but this process requires repeated temperature cycling, which demands high precision …
NIVIA-Hemodynamics
This is an investigator-initiated, single-center, single-arm prospective study to compare non-invasive hemodynamic assessment using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and lung ultrasound (LUS) and hemodynamic assessment using PAC. Patients who have been hemodynamically assessed using PAC will be invited to participate. Each patient will undergo TTE and LUS immediately after first invasive …
Research Into Risk Factors for Hospitalization Following a Fall in Older Patients
Every year, a considerable number of older people fall, with a variety of consequences. These falls can lead to hospitalization, with consequent adverse effects on these people, as well as a significant cost to society. The risk factors for falls themselves are well identified, but not those that lead to …
Elaboration of a Pronostic Score of Changes on Wheelchair's Seating System
Development and validation study of a prognostic score - study of prognostic performance by a prospective longitudinal multicenter cohort spread over 8 centers: 4 for the development cohort and 4 for the validation cohort).
Peripheral Artery Tonometry in Children With Type 1 Diabetes and Obese Children
Background: The reactive hyperemia-peripheral artery tonometry (RH-PAT) is a newly developed method for noninvasive endothelial function assessment. Objective: The goal of this study is to determine whether a significant difference in RH-PAT score is present between adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in comparison with controls. We will also compare …
NeoDoppler: New Ultrasound Technology for Continuous Monitoring of Cerebral Circulation Pilot
Non-invasive tools for monitoring of course of disease are important and necessary in the treatment of pre-term/premature infants and sick neonates. For many years, the ultrasound group in Trondheim has been at the forefront in the development of new ultrasound technology for the diagnosis and monitoring of disease. Several methods …
Evaluation of Pulmonary Complications in Liver Transplantation Patients Based on Machine Learning
The main objective of this study is to develop a machine learning model that predicts moderate-severe prediction model of pulmonary complications in liver transplantation patients within 14 postoperative day using a real-world, local preoperative and intraoperative electronic health records, not administrative codes.
Nerve Transfers Plus Electrical Stimulation to Improve Hand Function in Cervical Spinal Cord Injury
The goal of this prospective observational study is to determine whether brief intraoperative electrical stimulation and temporary postoperative electrical stimulation improve motor and/or pain outcomes for patients with cervical spinal cord injury undergoing standard of care nerve transfer surgery to improve hand function. The main hypotheses include: Hypothesis #1: Brief …
Unfolding Severe and Enduring Eating Disorders (U-SEED)
The main aim of this study is to identify biological and psychological characteristics as risk factors in individuals with severe and enduring eating disorders (SEED). Specifically, the investigators aim to: in a cohort of well-diagnosed eating disorder patients from 2005 followed up in National health registers, explore risk factors at …
Intensive Care Unit-acquired Heart Failure in Critically Ill: the ICU-HF Study
Critically ill patients in intensive care units (ICUs) are exposed to a wide range of complications that can affect long-term morbidity and mortality. Not only the initial diagnosis at the time of admission may lead to complications; the ICU stay itself can also be associated with specific disease patterns. One …
