Diffusion MRI for Quantitative Assessment of Myofascial Pain
The purpose of this study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of diffusion MRI for evaluation of the jaw muscles for patients with masticatory myofascial pain syndrome.
Role of RPL8 Protein Alterations in High-grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma
Background and rationale of the study: From our preliminary analyses of a dataset on patients with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), available in the online database The Cancer Genome Atlas, we found that the gene encoding ribosomal protein L8 (RPL8) is amplified at a high frequency (~30%) in HGSOC. Moreover, …
A Study on the Correlation Between Endometriosis and Intra-tissue Microbiota
Endometriosis (EM) is a common gynecological condition, but the pathogenesis of it has not yet been clarified. Here, the investigators wanted to investigate the correlation between endometriosis and the intra-tissue microbiota. The investigators planed to collect serum, vaginal swabs, cervical mucus, feces, peritoneal fluid, and endometrial tissue for sequencing and …
Development of a Biomarker Panel for the Earlier Prediction of Acute Kidney Injury in Patients With Diabetes
Patients living with diabetes mellitus have double the risk of kidney failure compared to patients without diabetes following use of dye in many x-rays and procedures to diagnose and treat narrowing of the arteries (blood vessels) in the heart that can lead to angina or a heart attack. Heart disease …
Immunoglobiulin-specific Prophylaxis of Citomegalovirus Infections in Immunocompromised Children Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a globally prevalent, human-specific herpesvirus characterised by a lifelong latency after primary infection, an often asymptomatic reactivation and affecting up to 100% of adults based on region and age. CMV reactivation has serious risks for immunocompromised patients, especially those undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). …
Thoracic Fluid Content During Stabilization and Therapeutic De-escalation in Septic Shock
In ICU, fluid challenge represents one of the cornerstones of hemodynamic care. However, fluid overload due to an excessive and/or inappropriate fluid administration could be associated with morbidity or mortality. Unfortunately, there is currently no continuous non-invasive devices to monitor fluid content at bedside. Bio reactance is a non-invasive, rapid …
Cross-sectional Study of Sleep Disturbance in Hong Kong Children With Cancer Comparing With Healthy Counterparts and Children With Other Chronic Diseases
Sleep disturbances are prevalent among children with chronic illnesses, yet the specific impact of cancer on sleep remains underexplored. This prospective and cross-sectional study aims to evaluate the prevalence, severity, and characteristics of sleep disturbances in Chinese children with cancer compared to healthy peers and children with other chronic diseases. …
Prognosis of Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Emergency Thoracic Surgery
Veno-vneous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is an established support strategy for acute respiratory failure, but its role in the perioperative management of emergency thoracic surgery remains poorly defined. This retrospective, multicenter, observational study aims to assess the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors in this high-risk population. Patients undergoing emergency thoracic …
Evaluation of Outcomes of the Triathlon Hinge Knee (THK) System
This study is a prospectively and retrospectively enrolled, post-market, open-label, non-randomized, single institution evaluation of clinical outcomes of primary or revision knee surgery patients who meet the eligibility criteria and received devices from the Triathlon Hinge Knee System according to its indications for use (IFU). Clinical evaluation for all cases …
Serum FSH Monitoring for Identification of an Optimal Range During Ovarian Stimulation
This study examines if monitoring serum Follicle Stimulation Hormone (FSH) levels can predict oocyte yield and progesterone levels, considering factors like age, baseline FSH, Antral Mullerian Hormone (AMH), antral follicle count, body weight, kidney function, and urinary FSH. The aim is to find a minimum FSH level that ensures optimal …
