Biomarkers and Choroidal Neovascularization

Choroidal NeovascularizationMineralocorticoid Excess

The aim of the study is to find biomarkers in the blood and aqueous humor of patients with type 1 choroidal neovascularization and correlate them with the response to anti-VEGF treatment.

Preliminary Study of Sonic Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in the Pathogenesis of Rheumatoid Arthritis...

ArthritisRheumatoid3 more

Rheumatoid arthritis(RA) with a high incidence and high morbidity, the pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated. Fibroblast-like synovial cells excessive proliferation and synovial angiogenesis is the most important cause of RA synovitis and joint destruction. Our study was to find the role of Sonic Hedgehog(SHH) pathway in regulating proliferation of fibroblast-like synovial cells and modulating excess angiogenesis of synovial tissue.

The Value of Placental Vascularization and Placental Volume in Pregnancy in APLS

Antiphospholipid Syndrome in Pregnancy

Antiphospholipid antibodies are autoantibodies directed against phospholipid-binding proteins. Among these groups of antibodies, lupus anticoagulant (LA) and anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL)

Ultrasonography in Fracture Management

FracturesBone3 more

The bone fracture is usually diagnosed using an X-ray examination (the method of choice). However, in the case of the youngest patients (children and adolescents), it carries a potential risk of X-ray radiation exposure. What is important, an X-ray examination often fails to detect occult fractures or the early stages of a fracture with or without bone fusion. The literature emphasizes that from 2 to 36% of fractures may be unnoticed on X-ray images (false negative results). Therefore, additional possibilities are sought to improve the initial diagnosis. It was shown that ultrasound could be used instead of the conventional imaging. The most important advantages of the usg are the absence of radiation exposure and greater availability. Moreover, the evaluator is able to show neovascularization during usg examination, which is important in bone healing process. The aim of this study is (1) to validate the ultrasound imaging method for the fracture management; (2) to use an ultrasound imaging to assess the bone fracture and healing process during 8 weeks post injury. This study consists of 50 patients aged 10-18 years old. The forearm fracture will be diagnosed using an X-ray imaging as well as an ultrasound imaging in the first 3 days post injury (initial study). It is planned to assess the healing process after 2, 4, 6 and/or 8 weeks post injury (comparative study).

The Changes in Carotid Plaque Neovascularization After Elovocumab Therapy

Carotid Artery Diseases

150 selected patients will be recruited, who have at least one atherosclerotic plaque in the carotid artery that is thicker than 2.0 mm and which is determined to be uniformly or predominantly echolucent by standard ultrasonography. For each of the plaques, standard ultrasonography will be used to evaluate lesion echogenicity, while contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) will be used to perform the visual and quantitative analysis of neovascularization. Each technique will be applied at baseline (at the time of study enrollment) and following 0.5、1 year of Elococumab Injection treatment. During the study, these patients will be treated with Elococumab Injection (1ml:140mg),ih, every two weeks.

Measuring Endometrial Blood Flow Using Laser Doppler: Acceptability & Reproducibility

EndometriumVascularization

35 participants will be recruited from a list of patients who are scheduled, as part of their routine NHS care, to have a clinically-indicated outpatient hysteroscopy for assessment of their uterine cavity. The participants will be women from the age of 18 up to the age of 40 who are undergoing hysteroscopy investigation. All participants included in the study require at least one ultrasound scan, within the preceding 5 years, demonstrating the presence of a normal uterine cavity devoid of uterine anomalies such as a septate uterus or intrauterine fibroids (which may affect endometrial blood flow measurements). It is usual for a patients to have an ultrasound assessment prior to hysteroscopy therefore we do not anticipate this requirement limiting the number of eligible participants available.

Stratus Versus Cirrus OCT in AMD

Age-Related Macular DegenerationChoroidal Neovascularization

The Cirrus OCT provides due to the spectral domain technology a 2-fold resolution than Stratus OCT generated in a comparable amount of time. Due to this higher resolution the retinal surface and the retinal pigment epithelium can be identified more clearly, a significantly reduced number of algorithm failures is expected

OCT and Microperimetry in Patients With Active Neovascular ARMD (CORFI)

Choroidal NeovascularizationVisual Field1 more

ARMD is the main cause of visual disability after 50 years old in France. Patients with active neovascular ARMD are treated with intravitreal injections of antiVEGF. Reinjections criteria are decrease of best corrected visual acuity or active neovascularization's signs (mostly found on macular OCT but also on angiography when necessary). The aim of this study is to evaluate the link between active neovascularization found on OCT and eye fixation quality measured with microperimetry in ARMD patients treated with antiVEGF. Quality of eye fixation and exudative signs presents or not present on OCT will be gathered at each consultation over the two-years follow-up for each patient. The mean central retinal sensitivity, the best corrected visual acuity and the bivariate contour ellipse area will also be gathered. In case no link will be found, for instance bad fixation quality without exudative signs on OCT or good fixation stability despite exudative signs on OCT, microperimetry should have an interest to improve reinjections criteria with a treatment more suitable to the patient.
