Assessment of the Prognosis of Pancreatic Cancer Patients Using 3D MRE
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), representing 85-95% of pancreatic cancers, is a highly lethal malignancy with a dismal 5-year survival rate below 8%. Emerging evidence highlights the critical need for non-invasive imaging biomarkers to stratify prognosis and guide therapeutic strategies. Notably, the biomechanical properties of PDAC-associated extracellular matrix (ECM), characterized by …
Symptoms, Pulmonary Function, Muscle Strength, Exercise Capacity, and Frailty in Esophageal Atresia vs. Healthy Peers
Esophageal atresia is the most common congenital anomaly of the esophagus and is caused by abnormal development of the esophagus during intrauterine life. In children with esophageal atresia, structural abnormalities due to congenital anomalies and tracheoesophageal fistula, tracheomalacia, respiratory problems, recurrent respiratory tract infections, structural abnormalities, surgical interventions for repair …
Study of Acquired Resistance to Alkylator Chemotherapy in Endocrine Neoplasms
It has been showed that alkylating chemotherapy, particularly the widely used agent temozolomide, may cause high tumor mutational burden (TMB) in certain tumors by causing inactivating mutations in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system. This can cause therapy resistance and tumor progression but may also predict response for immunotherapy. Hypermutation …
Multi-channel Time-resolved Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy for Prevention of Perioperative Brain Injury
Covert stroke occurs in one out of fourteen patients during or shortly after surgery, and may result in long-term disability. Fortunately, stroke that occurs during non-cardiac surgery is most commonly caused by inadequate blood flow to the brain and is, therefore, preventable if it can be detected early. Current clinical …
Risk and Protective Factors for Relapse to Alcohol Use in Patients With Liver Disease Undergoing Liver Transplantation
This is an observational, monocentric study, consisting of both a retrospective and a prospective component. The aim of the study is to identify risk and protective factors for alcohol relapse in patients with alcohol-related liver disease (ARLD) who have undergone orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).
Quantitative and Qualitative Monocytes Analysis and Their Impact on CART Cells Reponse in Multiple Myeloma
Tumoral micro-environment in malignant haematological diseases, notably in multiple myeloma, is active on plasma cells survival and proliferation. Monocytosis and monocytes typing are described in multiple myeloma response as factors on proliferation and cell death evasion. CART cells have improved multiple myeloma care in last 5 years, nethertheless, early relapse …
Clinical Assessment for Rheumatologic Disease - Research and Advancement in Safety and Efficacy
The CARe RAiSE project represents a pioneering translational initiative aimed at advancing precision medicine in the treatment of autoimmune rheumatic diseases. The primary objective is the development and implementation of an innovative cell-based ex vivo assay that enables individualized prediction of therapeutic response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). By identifying …
Biomarkers Related to PSCI: An fNIRS Study
This is an fNIRS study performed to identify biomarkers related to post-stroke cognitive impairment.
Evaluating Sexual Functioning in Trans Men During the Gender Affirmation Process: A Mixed Methods Study
Both sexual experiences and the process of gender transition initiated to reduce gender dysphoria carry cultural characteristics. Gender categories, societal expectations for each gender, and attitudes toward sexual minorities in a given society can shape the lived experiences of trans individuals. Therefore, research on individuals with gender dysphoria in different …
Analysis of Clinical Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Magnetic Resonance-Guided Focused Ultrasound for Medication-Refractory Tremor
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy in patients with medication-refractory essential tremor. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does MRgFUS thalamotomy provide sustained reduction in tremor severity over 3 years? What are the long-term …
