Effects of Heel Height on Gait Parameters
This observational study aims to investigate the effects of different shoe heel heights on gait parameters and pelvic kinematics in healthy adults aged 18-35 years. Each participant will be assessed under three conditions: barefoot, wearing shoes with 2 cm heels, and wearing shoes with 6 cm heels. Spatiotemporal gait parameters …
Natural History of Coronary Atherosclerosis
The present study sought to explore the predictive value of radial wall strain (RWS, derived solely from angiograms) for coronary artery lesion progression compared with lesion vulnerability assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT). The lesion progression at 1 year was defined as an increase of ≥20% in diameter stenosis based …
Maternal and Fetal/Neonatal Pharmacokinetics and - Dynamics of Corticosteroids During Pregnancy
Improving pregnancy outcome is essential in improving health of both parents and their offspring during the life course. Preterm birth (PTB) occurs in 10-15% of all pregnancies, is the leading cause of perinatal mortality and morbidity {Goldenberg, 2008}, has long-term adverse consequences for postnatal health {Huddy, 2001} and is a …
A Prospective, Single-center, Observational Study Aiming to Assess the Predictive Role of Flow Mediated Dilatation in Acute Coronary Syndromes, Combined With Echocardiographic and Biochemical Indices: The Novel Cor-IS Technology Will Also be Evaluated
A prospective, single-center, observational study aiming to assess the predictive role of flow mediated dilatation in acute coronary syndromes, combined with echocardiographic and biochemical indices. The novel Cor-IS technology will also be evaluated.
A New Ultrasound Score for Swallowing Disorders Diagnosis in Difficult-to-wean Tracheostomised Patients
Swallowing Disorders (SD) is commonly observed in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Disruption to the upper airway by way of a tracheostomy may lead to physiological and/or biomechanical changes to the swallow, thereby increasing dysphagia risk. SD is independently associated with adverse outcomes including respiratory complications, nutritional compromise, and even …
Evaluating the Efficacy and Patient Experience of Catheter-Free Intravesical Instillation
This study aims to evaluate a catheter-free method for delivering medications directly into the bladder, known as intravesical instillation, which is commonly used to treat conditions such as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder cancer, and post-chemotherapy or post-radiation cystitis. The study investigates whether this method, …
Creation of a Clinical Database for the Study of Phenotypic Variability in Motor Neuron Diseases
Study Description: Characterization of Motor Neuron Disease Phenotypes The goal of this observational study is to understand the clinical presentation of motor neuron disease (MND) in patients attending the Neurology Department of the Istituto Auxologico Italiano. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the specific clinical phenotypes …
Investigating the Biomarkers in Tumor and Peripheral Blood to Evaluate the Efficacy of Cancer Immunotherapy in Chest Cancer Patients
This study aims to investigate the impact of immunotherapy on the immune status of tumor microenvironment and peripheral blood of chest cancer patients. To do so, the investigators plan to collect tumor tissue and peripheral blood samples before and after immunotherapy, and use single-cell RNA sequencing, Multiplex immunohistochemistry, and flow …
What Unmet Need for the Patients?A Focus on the Social Determinants of Health in Phase 1 Clinical Trials
An observational prospective study of patients enrolled and treated with experimental drugs in Phase I studies.
Elastographic Assessment of Suburethral Tissue in Continent and Incontinent Women
Strain elastography (SE) will be utilized as a non-invasive imaging technique to evaluate tissue elasticity and biomechanical properties in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and in continent controls. The primary aim is to determine whether SE can detect differences in paraurethral tissue stiffness between these groups. Given the established …
