Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

Monocentric, observational, descriptive RIPH3 study with prospective data collection.

The aim of this study is to assess surgical management and outcome of Tethered cord syndrome

The goal of this non-interventional study (NIS) is to collect real-world data to describe the natural history of Netherton Syndrome (NS).

To realize a sleep phenotyping in a population with Down syndrome, its determinants, and the consequences of these disorders, with a specific focus on sleep apnea syndrome.

The Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is defined by a recent (within 1 week) respiratory failure, not fully explained by cardiac failure or fluid overload. ARDS is also characterized by bilateral opacities at the chest imaging, with an alteration of the oxygenation while positive end-expiratory pressure equal or greater than 5 cmH2O is applied. Severe ARDS is characterized by a high mortality. In the most severe ARDS patients, venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vv-ECMO) is increasingly accepted as a mean to support vital function, although not free from complications. In patients with severe ARDS, prone position has been used for many years to improve oxygenation. In these patients, early application of prolonged (16 hours) prone-positioning sessions significantly decreased 28-day and 90-day mortality. More recently, prone position and ECMO have been coupled as concurrent treatment. Indeed, the addition of prone positioning therapy concurrently with ECMO can aid in optimizing alveolar recruitment, and reducing ventilator-induced lung injury. Nowadays, few data exist on respiratory mechanics modifications before and after the application of prone position in patients with severe ARDS receiving vv-ECMO. The investigators have therefore designed this observational study to assess the modifications of mechanical properties of the respiratory system, ventilation and aeration distribution, and hemodynamics occurring during ECMO before and after prone position in patients with severe ARDS.

The purpose of this study is to explore the long-term consequences of neuroimaging and perceived cognitive dysfunction in obstetrics posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome.

Rare epilepsies as a whole account for 20-30% of epilepsies, but knowledge about prognostic factors is currently limited. This means that it is difficult to provide adequate information to families at diagnosis and during follow-up. Prognostic factors are also important for management as they can have an impact on the patient's outcome (time to intervention, choice of one molecule over another, etc.). Finally, few treatments are currently available for these epilepsies. One of the limitations to the development of treatments is the lack of real life data as it is difficult to create reliable primary endpoints such as the rate of patients becoming seizure free naturally compared to a therapeutic intervention. The aim of this real-life study is to evaluate the response to treatment as well as to see the evolution of cognitive and psychiatric comorbidities. As explained above, there are very few randomised trials except for 3 rare epilepsies (infantile spasm syndrome, Dravet syndrome, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome). This has led to the virtual absence of management recommendations, including for the three syndromes mentioned above, where attempts at treatment algorithms have been proposed, although these have not been able to be considered as evidence-based recommendations. As a result, there is some diversity in the management of rare epilepsies from one centre to another. However, this diversity in management can be an asset in a real-life study. This will make it possible to compare different management methods, both in terms of seizure control and medium-term outcome.

Triglyceride glucose index and a reliable alternative marker of insulin resistance and an independent predictor of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), which was defined as the composite of total death, myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization, stroke, and hospitalization because of heart failure. We hypothesis that there is a relation between prediction of MACE in acute coronary syndrome patients and between triglyceride glucose index.

This is an open-label, multicenter, single-arm, phase II clinical trial of Everolimus (RAD001) in patients with segmental overgrowth syndrome.

5% hyperbaric lidocaine has lost its usefulness for same-day-surgery (SDS) anaesthesia because it has been blamed responsible for the so-called transitory neurological syndrome (TNS). This entity appears particularly in patients operated on lithotomy and knee arthroscopy position and obese patients. It is a benign, moderately painful (grade 3-4 out of 10) and self-limited in time, but disturbing enough to be avoided in same-day-surgery cases. Other local anesthetics are not competitive with general anesthesia in time to be discharged home from the SDS unit. The magnesium ion is well-known for its protective properties on cells with electrical activity. The objective is to confirm that the magnesium ion added as adjuvant to intrathecal (IT) lidocaine may antagonize TNS incidence. If this hypothesis could be confirmed, the practical and theoretical consequences would be far-reaching. The method to achieve our objective would be a double-blinded randomized clinical trial considering two groups of intrathecal lidocaine: with and without added IT magnesium.
