Oropharynx (OPX) Biomarker Trial
The purpose of this research is to identify a biomarker that is exists when human papillomavirus (HPV) mediated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma is present and does not exist when HPV mediated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma is absent.
Development of Therapeutic Approaches Modulating Molecular Targets Implicated on Cancer Stem Cell-related Aggressiveness
Tumors of the central nervous system affect 21 people per 100,000 every year, a figure that refers to countries with advanced economies, with an increase in incidence over time. Experimental evidence suggests that cancer stem cells (CSCs) may play a key role in the malignancy of these tumors. In fact, …
Diurnal Evaluation of OSA Upper Airway Collapsibility and Muscle Responsiveness
In the framework of pathophysiological trait in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients, a simplified method is proposed to measure upper airway (UA) collapsibility and muscle responsiveness during wakefulness.
Ultra-Low Field (ULF) Point-of-Care (POC) MRI System for Brain Morphology and Pathology
Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a tool for getting pictures of the tissues and organs inside the body. MRI can help diagnose many injuries and diseases. But not all patients are equally likely to receive MRIs. Factors such as race or ethnicity, distance to imaging centers, mobility, and a …
NIRS in Congenital Heart Defects - Correlation With Echocardiography
Neonatal patients with congenital heart defects (CHD) have changing physiology in the context of transitional period. Patients with CHD are at risk of low perfusion status or abnormal pulmonary blood flow. Near infrared spectroscopy has been used in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) to measure end-organ perfusion. The investigator plan …
Prediction of COPD Severity Using Electrical Impedance Tomography
The purpose of this study is to predict the CT visual score of emphysema with EIT-based parameters, in order to provide a non-invasive and convenient method for the evaluation of lung structure and physiological and pathological progression of COPD.
Clinical Application of the J-PET Scanner Prototype
Positron emission tomography (PET), an advanced diagnostic imaging technique, exploits the annihilation of positrons (e+) to delineate pathological alterations within diseased tissues. Integral to PET scanners are detector systems that transform gamma photons into fluorescent photons, thereby gleaning insights into the energy, time, and spatial distribution of gamma photons emanating …
Glucose and Glycogen Dynamics in Prediabetes
The goal of this observational study is to investigate changes in nocturnal and postprandial glucose and glycogen metabolism in individuals with impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance compared to healthy, non-diabetic, overweight participants (15 per group). In addition, it will be investigated if reducing gluconeogenesis, by using the challenge …
Association of History of Concussion With Vestibular Impairment and Cognitive Function in Sports Athletes
This study investigates the potential relationship between prior concussions and their impact on both vestibular function and cognitive abilities in athletes participating in sports.
A Digital Life Story to Support Person-centred Care for Older Adults With Dementia Perspectives
Person-centred care can be supported when healthcare professionals access and actively use the information recorded in a life story. Active use of the life story can create security for a person with dementia and their carers. The written life story describes the person and their life experiences, which can define …
