Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

This protocol concerns the approach to the localization, diagnosis of MEN1 and management of the tumor and the tissue samples in patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. It details the diagnostic imaging tests to be used to localize the tumor, investigations for MEN1 the subsequent management of the tumor and tissue samples for research.

Research question: Are the ventilatory variables related to mechanical power associated with the outcome of subjects who received mechanical ventilation (MV) for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) secondary to pneumonia (NMN) due to COVID-19?

Williams Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a multiple malformations/intellectual disability (ID) syndrome caused by 7q11.23 microdeletion and clinically characterized by a typical neurocognitive profile including excessive talkativeness and social disinhibition, often defined as "overfriendliness" and "hypersociability". WBS is generally considered as the polar opposite phenotype to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Surprisingly, the prevalence of ASD has been reported to be significantly higher in WBS (12%) than in general population (1%). This study aims to investigate the molecular basis of the peculiar association of ASD and WBS. The investigator performed chromosomal microarray analysis and whole exome sequencing in six patients presenting with WBS and ASD, in order to evaluate the possible presence of chromosomal or gene variants considered as pathogenic.

Chest pain is a very common reason for resorting to the call center. The etiologies are very varied, ranging from benign pathologies to some that may involve, in the short term, the vital prognosis such as Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). ACS is a partial or complete occlusion of a coronary artery that causes potentially irreversible myocardial pain unless prompt treatment is undertaken. ACS represents 120 000 cases per year in France and causes about 18 000 deaths. There is currently no support score for the assessment of chest pain. However, reducing the duration of management of ACS is essential in order to hope to reduce the associated morbidity and mortality. In 2016, SAMU45's team established a predictive ACS score for the assessement of chest pain in SAMU 45 (France) based on the prospective study of 1367 patients. Seven items significantly associated with this risk of ACS could be highlighted: age, sex, smoking, typicality (potentially constrictive chest pain radiating potentially to the shoulders and / or jaw) pain, inaugural character of pain (ie first episode of this type), presence of sweats and the physician's belief to be in the presence of an ACS. These seven variables make up the SCARE score. This had good internal discrimination (AUC at 0.81) and excellent calibration ("p" of Hosmer-Lemeshow at 0.74). This score makes it possible to stratify the risk of ACS, by using epidemiological elements but also the physician's belief, whose Negative Predictive Value (VPN) proved excellent. The objective of this new project is to confirm by an external validation via a multicentric study the robustness of this score and thus be able to consider its use in front of any chest pain regulated in France by a call center.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic disease characterized by the association of abdominal pain and transit disorders. IBS affects 5 to 10% of the population. There are several forms of IBS: IBS-D (with predominant diarrhea), IBS-C (with constipation predominant) and IBS-M (mixed with alternating diarrhea and constipation). In the absence of a diagnostic test to confirm the existence of this syndrome, the diagnosis of IBS is based on clinical criteria (Rome IV criteria). In patients suspected of IBS, especially in patients with diarrhea (IBS-D or IBS-M), a colonoscopy with biopsies is often proposed in addition to biological tests (Complete Blood Count, C-reactive protein, thyroid stimulating hormon and anti-transglutaminase antibodies) by the physician or gastroenterologist to exclude an organic digestive disease such as celiac disease, IBD (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis), microscopic colitis or even neoplasia. The colonoscopy is an invasive exploration and does not allow exploration of the entire small bowel. The development of capsules allowed the exploration of the small bowel more recently of the colon. The new developed pan-capsule allows evaluation of both small bowel and colon. The aim of this work is to evaluate in patients younger than 50 years, presenting suspicious digestive symptoms of IBS with diarrhea, the interest of a strategy based on the pan-capsule as an alternative to colonoscopy to eliminate a diagnosis of organic digestive disease (celiac disease, IBD, neoplasia, ..).

Data assessing the long-term bowel dysfunction following low anterior resection is still lacking. The aim of this study is to evaluate late functional results of patients who underwent rectal resection for rectal cancer. This included calculating LARS and Wexner score and identifying possible risk factors of late postoperative bowel disorders.

Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by systemic thrombosis and bad obstetric history. APS secondary to another medical disorder is the most common. Visual and ocular changes e.g. vaso-occlusive disease of retinal and choroidal vessels are found in patients with secondary APS. Patients with primary APS have also been reported to have ocular changes e.g. retinal vascular occlusion The aim of our study to detect prevalence of ocular changes in women diagnosed with primary APS and correlation of these changes with adverse obstetric outcome. If a correlation is present, ocular findings in women with APS could be used in the future as a predictor for poor obstetric outcome.

A total of 50 participants diagnosed with ACS (group A ticagrelor 180mg/d, n=25), group B (clopidogrel 75mg + rivaroxaban 5mg/ d, n=25)) were consecutively enrolled and treated with study drugs on top of aspirin (100mg/d) for 1 month. VerifyNow® and Global thrombosis test were performed at day 2 and 1 month after administration of study drugs. The investigators compared aspirin reaction unit (ARU) and P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU), occlusion time (OT) which reflects shear stress-induced thrombotic activity, and lysis time (LT) which showed endogenous lytic activity between the two strategies at both time points.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence of the ARDS in the French wounded soldiers.

FCS and MCS patients recruited from 7 academic reference centers were invited to answer a paper or a web questionnaire. Questions encompassed demographics, physical, cognitive and mental symptoms, health care circuit, past and current disease management, satisfaction regarding healthcare providers and impact on daily life.
