A Comparison of Paediatric Weight Estimation Methods for Emergency Resuscitation

Body Weight

The purpose of this study is to study the validity, reliability and practicality of the different weight estimation methods (parent estimation method, Mercy method, Broselow tape, original and update APLS) in Thai children.

Functional Imaging in Multiple Myeloma -PET/CT and Diffusion Weighted Imaging in Multiple Myeloma...

Multiple Myeloma

The FULIMA study is a two-center study at Odense University Hospital and Vejle Hospital, Denmark. The primary objective is to identify the optimal imaging technique for studies in multiple myeloma with focus on PET/CT and MRI. By combining early (1 hour) and late (3 hours) 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D- fluorodeoxyglucose(18F-FDG)-PET/CT scans the investigators expect to see increased uptake of radioactive tracer and thus an improved ability to identify malignant tissue. A second tracer 18F-natrium-fluoride is used to explore early signs of bone remodeling. By using new software (ROVER) for interpreting PET data the investigators expect to obtain a quantitative measurement of total disease burden with less risk of misinterpretation of data. Diffusion weighted MRI (DWI) is a new MRI technique which, like PET/CT, makes it possible quantitatively to calculate the overall disease activity and to give an early evaluation of response to chemotherapy. The study examines DWI for development and standardization. To validate imaging findings and to explore the pathogenetic heterogeneity of multiple myeloma, the investigators perform CT guided biopsies from PET/ DWI positive sites. Pathoanatomical and immunohistochemical findings and gene expression data from positive sites are compared to random bone marrow. The question is whether disease heterogeneity may explain the lack of FDG uptake in bone marrow in some patients? To the extent that the FULIMA study produces useful data, the defined and standardized imaging techniques will form the basis of a larger prospective study at national level in Denmark.

Whole Body MRI Imaging in Multiple Myeloma at 3 Tesla MRI : Added Value of Diffusion Weighted Imaging...

Multiple Myeloma

Whole body MRI with diffusion weighted imaging is a useful imaging tool staging and diagnosis therapy monitoring All patients will be scanned before and during treatment. The findings on diffusion weighted imaging will be correlated to the golden standard (computer tomography and MRI (T1 and STIR)).

Body Mass Index (BMI) and Quality of Life (QoL) in Cancer Patients

Neoplasm MalignantBody Weight1 more

BMI is a simple and widely recorded variable that may capture obesity or cachexia in cancer patients. How BMI is associated to health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) in such patients is poorly investigated. High BMI may be associated to obesity, an increased burden of comorbidity, reduced physical activity and, in some settings, to more aggressive oncological disease. On the other hand, low BMI may reflect enhanced weight loss, cachectic syndrome, higher tumor burden and adverse prognostic features which all deteriorate quality of life. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the association of BMI and HR-QoL as measured by the EORTC-QLQ-C30 questionnaire in several cancer settings (such as localized vs metastatic or distinct primary tumors).
