Active clinical trials for "Hyperplasia"

This study is to linguistically and psychometrically validate the translated and culturally adapted Hong Kong Chinese version of the BPH 3-item questionnaire.

Introduction Rare complex syndromes Patients with complex genetic syndromes, by definition, have combined medical problems affecting multiple organ systems, and intellectual disability is often part of the syndrome. During childhood, patients with rare genetic syndromes receive multidisciplinary and specialized medical care; they usually receive medical care from 3-4 medical specialists. Increased life expectancy Although many genetic syndromes used to cause premature death, improvement of medical care has improved life expectancy. More and more patients are now reaching adult age, and the complexity of the syndrome persists into adulthood. However, until recently, multidisciplinary care was not available for adults with rare genetic syndromes. Ideally, active and well-coordinated health management is provided to prevent, detect, and treat comorbidities that are part of the syndrome. However, after transition from pediatric to adult medical care, patients and their parents often report fragmented poor quality care instead of adequate and integrated health management. Therefore, pediatricians express the urgent need for adequate, multidisciplinary adult follow up of their pediatric patients with rare genetic syndromes. Medical guidelines for adults not exist and the literature on health problems in these adults is scarce. Although there is a clear explanation for the absence of adult guidelines (i.e. the fact that in the past patients with rare genetic syndromes often died before reaching adult age), there is an urgent need for an overview of medical issues at adult age, for 'best practice' and, if possible, for medical guidelines. The aim of this study is to get an overview of medical needs of adults with rare genetic syndromes, including: comorbidities medical and their impact on quality of life medication use the need for adaption of medication dose according to each syndrome Methods and Results This is a retrospective file study. Analysis will be performed using SPSS version 23 and R version 3.6.0.

To construct a prediction model of progesterone sensitivity in patients with endometrial cancer treated with fertility preservation

In this study, investigators aim to determine the true positivity of bladder cancer identified in the bladder base, trigone or neck on ultrasonography (USG) in patients presenting with hematuria or lower urinary tract symptoms, by confirming with the gold standard cystoscopy and biopsy results. It also aims to explore criteria that would allow to differentiate between intravesical prostate protrusion (IPP) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and bladder cancer indicated at the bladder floor, trigone and neck by evaluating false positive results.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the ability of vibrational spectroscopic techniques, Raman spectroscopy and Attenuated Total Reflection - Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), to accurately differentiate endometrial tissue, lymph nodes and blood samples with womb cancer or endometrial hyperplasia from healthy controls.

This study evaluates whether adding a polygenic risk score evaluation to standard breast cancer risk assessment tools helps African American and Hispanic women make more informed decisions about accepting additional breast cancer screening and prevention strategies. Traditional breast cancer risk assessments rely mostly on the presence of standard clinical risk factors including family history, reproductive history, and mammographic breast density. This information can be combined with validated risk estimation models to provide a measure of a patient's 10 year and lifetime risk for breast cancer. A polygenic risk score helps to estimate breast cancer risk in a more individualized way by evaluating a patient's genetics. Adding a polygenic risk score evaluation to traditional screening techniques may help minority women make more informed decisions about screening and prevention strategies for breast cancer.

The FD/MAS Patient Registry is an IRB-approved research study that that invites the patients and families to help answer some of the biggest questions about FD/MAS by completing questionnaires about their lives with FD or MAS.

Several studies have demonstrated that vitamin D deficiency at birth is a risk factor of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. However, in an animal model of bronchopulmonary dysplasia vitamin D overdose has also been associated with an increased mortality and an increased lung injury. Such vitamin D overdose has been frequently reported in hospitalized neonates receiving the current supplementation. The hypothesis is that vitamin D overdose is an independent risk factor of bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death among infants born below 31 weeks gestational age excluding infants with vitamin D deficiency. This retrospective cohort study will include all infants born before 31 weeks of gestation (WG), who were hospitalized in a tertiary neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) during at least 10 days, for who at least one 25OH vitamin D determination was performed before 36 WG corrected age and whose parents are not opposed to the study. A descriptive analysis of the cohort depending on the occurrence of vitamin D overdose will be performed. A multivariate analysis will determine if vitamin D overdose is an independent risk factor of bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death among preterm infants, adjusting on the covariates known to be associated with bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

This pre-screening study is designed to determine potential eligibility of adults with classic CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) for participation in the CAH-301 [NCT04783181] gene therapy trial with BBP-631.

This research study is creating a way to collect and store specimens and information from participants who may be at an increased risk of developing cancer, or has been diagnosed with an early phase of a cancer or a family member who has a family member with a precursor condition for cancer. The objective of this study is to identify exposures as well as clinical, molecular, and pathological changes that can be used to predict early development of cancer, malignant transformation, and risks of progression to symptomatic cancer that can ultimately be fatal. The ultimate goal is to identify novel markers of early detection and risk stratification to drive potential therapeutic approaches to intercept progression to cancer.
