Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The goal of this observational study is to learn about sodium channel (Nav) mutations in patients with the Anterior Cutaneous Nerve Entrapment Syndrome (ACNES). This study will give more insight into the pathophysiology of ACNES, which is still largely unknown. The primary objective is to determine if there are mutations of Nav1.7 and Nav1.8 in patients with ACNES. Therefore, one blood sample will be drawn, in which the mutations will be analyzed.

Description of the time course of nerve ultrasonography changes in correlation to nerve conduction studies (NCS) and clinical course.

Subjects between 14 and 40 years of age referred to physical therapy with a diagnosis of PFPS will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. The first group (PFPS) will be treated pragmatically. The second group (PFPS+DN) will receive the same pragmatic approach with the addition of dry needling intervention. The dry needling intervention will be delivered based on the treating physical therapist's examination of the patient's soft tissue mobility deficits, muscle activation deficits, or referred pain patterns.

The high prevalence (9% in men and 4% in women) of sleep apnea / hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) in adults is now well documented as well as its cardiovascular repercussions. Previous studies showed a conclusive link between SAHS and severe cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, myocardial infarction, heart failure and stroke.Then, SAHS is a public health issue in adults. In this context, early detection of such a disease is crucial if the management is tailored to the patient, the practitioner's choice of therapy moving towards continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or mandibular advancement device. The detection is based on full nocturnal polysomnography or polygraphic recordings. Polysomnography remains the gold standard but it is a time consuming and costly examination. Polygraphic recording is a test that allows simplified the diagnosis of severe patients, but may not be sufficient for mild form of SAHS. Thus, the SAHS is a pathology under-diagnosed and under-treated. The validation of a technique for identifying patients most at risk to either limit the number of polysomnographic examination is requested.

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in neonates has been defined in 2017.The death rate is over 50%. HFOV and CMV are two main invasive ventilation strategies. However, which one is better needing to be further elucidated.

This is a prospective, multicenter cohort observational; study to compare treatment outcomes in patients admitted to the hospital with Stevens-Johnsons Syndrome/Toxic Epidermolysis, aiming to assess the utility of medical management. The hypothesis of this study is that one or more treatment options will demonstrate improved patient outcomes. The primary objectives are cessation of progression of disease, time to complete re-epithelialization, length of stay, and mortality rate in the treatment groups as compared to those receiving supportive care alone. Exploratory analyses will assess the cause, risk factors, and severity prediction factors associated with the disease.

The purpose of the current project is to test the impact of transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) on social ability in children with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS). Social ability and blood neuropeptides associated with social functioning will be measured before and after engagement in 12 weeks of tVNS therapy.

We would study whether there is any measurable benefit of the administration of nebulized n-acetyl-cysteine to acute respiratory distress syndrome patients starting within 48 hours of intubation and mechanical ventilation.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of acute leg cycling conditions at three different intensities versus a control condition condition on symptoms of restless legs syndrome (RLS) in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). This study includes a proposed sample of 24 participants diagnosed with both MS and RLS that will complete four sessions of supervised exercise or rest conditions in the lab, one session per week, over the course of four weeks.

The aim of the study is to acess the association between admission serum uric acid level and in_hospital outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndromes
