to investigate the relation between NCV of femoral nerve and other dependent variables such as ( pain & limited hip extension ROM )in patients with PFPS . to predict using the NCV as a method for assessment femoral nerve mechanosensitivity in those with PFPS

Salivary gland ultrasonography is identified as a valuable diagnostic tool and potential criteria item for disease classification of sjögren's syndrome and evaluate evolution of parenchyma. The investigators have to include 242 patients. The objective is to evaluate the modification of ultrasonographic abnormalities according to disease in primary Sjögren syndrome.

Background and justification: Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a disabling and life-threatening condition that results from a partial or total bowel resection, and has become as the main cause of Type III, intestinal failure (IF). Immediately after enterectomy there is an adaptation process consisting of structural, hormonal and metabolic changes to maximize intestinal function. These changes begin within days of resection and generally continue for several months. However, recent publications have reported even longer periods of time (up to 5 years) to achieve enteral autonomy. It is possible to enhance the natural process of intestinal adaptation through medical or surgical treatments, called intestinal rehabilitation. During the process, complications related to intestinal failure or its treatment may arise, jeopardizing the result and even compromising survival. A better understanding of the medium and long-term results of patients under medical and / or surgical treatment with SIC is needed. Despite the improvement recently achieved in managing IF, in most countries, pts are dispersed and seen by general health-care providers, with limited SBS or IF experience, causing increasing concern regarding the competence and equity of the care accessible to suffering pts. The results obtained with the RESTORE project in adult patients highlight the relevance of having registries to better understand the natural history of this disease in adult patients, proving that a larger number of adult pts with SBS/III-IF can be identified and cared for than the numbers considered by recognized estimations. [Abstract sent to TTS, 2020]. To date, there are no data for pediatric patients with iIF secondary to SIC in Latin America, so its incidence, prevalence and evolution are unknown. Recent publications from middle-income countries, exposed the current inequality regarding the different types of therapies available within a given region. Given the high morbidity and mortality associated with ICS-FI, there is an unmet need to create an adequate study that provides the information necessary to establish local and regional parameters and recommendations on its treatment.

The purpose of this study was to investigate adaptation, validity, and reliability of the Turkish version of the Primary Sjögren's Syndrome Quality of Life (PSS-QoL) Questionnaire

Single-cohort retrospective study evaluating the incidence and prognostic markers of heart failure following acute coronary syndrome treated by percutaneous coronary intervention

Multi-system inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a post-viral inflammatory vasculopathy of children and adolescents following Covid-19 infection. It affects one of 1000-5000 children. Latency between mild or asymptomatic Covid-19 infection and MIS-C is 4-6 weeks. The immune response in MIS-C seems to be dysregulated and different from that during acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. The investigators are planning to investigate the immune response in children with MIS-C. RNA and protein expression of cytokines and immune cell-related markers will be determined via multiplex ELISA, FACS, quantitative PCR, RNAseq, and Western blot. The use of highly sensitive multiplex methods will allow for the analysis of a large number of parameters in the smallest possible amount of sample. Sample preparation and analysis will be performed in close collaboration with the Centre for Molecular Medicine Cologne (CMMC) and the Institute of Virology. With this project the investigators hope to identify risk factors for developing MIS-C and extend the knowledge on therapeutic options for the treatment of this condition.
