Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

Peripheral nerve entrapment neuropathies are the most common mononeuropathies in clinical practice. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), n. It occurs as a result of compression of the medianus as it passes through the carpal tunnel, a narrow osteofibrous canal. CTS is the most common entrapment neuropathy of the upper extremity, affecting approximately 3% of the general adult population. This study, which was designed as a randomized controlled study, will include 36 patients with CTS, aged between 18-65, who applied to Kırşehir Ahi Evran University Training and Research Hospital. In our study, both groups will be given 10 minutes of paraffin, 20 minutes of TENS, and 10 repetitions of tendon gliding exercise, 3 days a week for a total of 3 weeks (9 sessions). EESDT will be applied once a week in both groups (one group at 4 bar and the other at 1.5 bar pressure). Measurements will be made before treatment, after treatment, and at 12 weeks post-treatment. In the literature, different pressure parameters were used in studies examining the efficacy of ESDT in the treatment of CTS. Although ESDT has been shown to have a curative effect on CTS, there is no consensus on which pressure parameter is more effective. Therefore, in this study, the effectiveness of ESDT applied at different pressure parameters in the treatment of CTS will be examined.

This mixed cohort study will test the frequency of PCOS among young females presenting with one of the clinical hyperandrogenism criteria: acne, hirsutism and/or hair loss. Diagnosis will be based on the recent PCOS clinical, biochemical and biophysical criteria recently published " International evidence-based guideline for the assessment and management of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) 2018".

The primary objective of the study is to compare, in a cohort of obese subjects with PWS hospitalized at the Division of Auxology, Istituto Auxologico Italiano, Piancavallo (VB), Italy, the age acceleration calculated at study entry (T0) with the age acceleration measured at the end of a 3-week multidisciplinary metabolic rehabilitation program (T1). Secondary objectives are to correlate the biological age with the anthropometric characteristics (with particular reference to the body composition), the glycometabolic picture, the main parameters and cardiovascular risk factors, the therapy (previous and concomitant) with rhGH and the cognitive function (mainly, the IQ).

Biliary atresia is a serious congenital anomaly characterized by persistent and progressive cholestatic jaundice. The incidence of biliary atresia is more common in East Asia, especially China, with an incidence of 2 per 10,000 live births. Liver transplantation is the only effective way to treat end-stage liver disease. However, distant organ damage, affecting the heart, brain, kidneys, lungs, and intestines, is still an important factor affecting the long-term survival of children after surgery. Desflurane is a volatile anesthetic commonly used in surgery. In order to observe the effect of desflurane on the incidence of early postoperative pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) with biliary atresia who underwent living donor liver transplantation, and explore the related mechanism, a total of 165 infant patients underwent living liver transplantation due to biliary atresia from March 2023 to October 2023 are included in our single-center prospective study. They are randomly divided into propofol group (n=55), propofol and desflurane group (n=55) and desflurane group (n=55) according to the difference of intraoperative anesthesia maintenance. Gender, age, height, weight, PELD scores and other preoperative basic data are recorded. Operation time, anhepatic time and intraoperative blood loss volume are recorded. The basic information of liver donors are also recorded. Postoperative mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay time, tacrolimus concentration, total length of hospital stay and mortality during hospitalization are recorded. According to the the definition of PARDS recommended by the 2015 Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference is used as the diagnostic and grading criteria for postoperative PARDS, and the incidence and grading of PARDS within the first seven days after surgery are evaluated in the three groups. Peripheral blood is collected immediately after anesthesia induction, 30min after reperfusion and at the end of surgery to detect serum levels of HMGB1, IL-6 and TNF-α by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

The study will be a randomized, open-label trial in children with the initial episode of SSNS and whose state of complete remission after received standard prednisolone, to determine whether rituximab (a single intravenous infusion of 375 mg/m2) would be noninferior to corticosteroid alone in maintaining complete disease remission during 12-month of follow-up.

The goal of this clinical trial is to pilot test a newly developed multiple component mobile-aid pain reduction intervention (MCMAPRI) and the feasibility of implementing this intervention in adult patients with myofascial pain syndrome of the low back. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the effects of the MCMAPRI intervention on reducing levels of myofascial pain in adult patients with myofascial pain syndrome of the low back? What is the feasibility for implementing the MCMAPRI intervention in adult patients with myofascial pain syndrome of the low back? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: no treatment group, MCMAPRI intervention + sham osteopathic manipulation treatment, or MCMAPRI intervention +osteopathic manipulation treatment. Participants assigned to the no treatment group will only receive educational materials through email and a weekly phone call from the coordinator to reduce dropouts. Participants assigned to the multiple component mobile-aid pain reduction intervention+sham osteopathic manipulation treatment group will be asked to engage in posture training through a wearable device (i.e., UPRIGHT GO), a core muscle training and stretching exercise program, stress reduction through breath focus, and in strategies to improve their level of daily activity (i.e., wearing a Garmin device). This group will receive a sham osteopathic manipulation treatment by placing hands on the patient as if osteopathic manipulation treatment is being performed. Participants assigned to the MCMAPRI intervention+sham osteopathic manipulation treatment group will be asked to engage in posture training through a wearable device (i.e., UPRIGHT GO), a core muscle training and stretching exercise program, stress reduction through breath focus, and in strategies to improve their level of daily activity (i.e., wearing a Garmin device). This group will receive actual osteopathic manipulation treatment by putting pressure on certain muscles in the back and performing osteopathic manipulation treatment exercises on the patient. Researchers will compare the no treatment group, multiple component mobile-aid pain reduction intervention+sham osteopathic manipulation treatment group, and multiple component mobile-aid pain reduction intervention+osteopathic manipulation treatment group to see if there are decreased levels of pain, increased physical activity, better posture, and reduced levels of stress.

Evaluation of the short- and medium-term effect of a yoga intervention in addition to routine care compared to health education in addition to routine care on fatigue in patients with post covid syndrome.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and ovulatory dysfunction. One of the diagnostic criteria for PCOS is the presence of polycystic ovaries, which are enlarged ovaries with multiple follicles on ultrasound. However, the mechanisms that lead to the development of polycystic ovaries in PCOS are not completely understood. One potential area of investigation is the role of ovarian innervation in the pathophysiology of PCOS. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the ovarian innervation in PCOS patients through ovarian biopsy sampling.

Dapagliflozin is the first SGLT2 inhibitor to be approved for CKD treatment regardless of diabetes status. Since many etiologies of non-diabetic nephropathy are characterized by intraglomerular hypertension, it was hypothesized that dapagliflozin acutely decreases GFR and proteinuria in patients without diabetes at risk of progressive kidney function loss such as nephrotic patients via a glucose independent hemodynamic mechanism. The aim of the study is to assess the effect of Dapagliflozin on proteinuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate in non-diabetic patients with nephrotic syndrome in order to slow the decline in kidney function and the progression to ESRD and to prevent the complications of nephrotic syndrome like thrombotic diseases, peritonitis, hyperuricemia, and recurrent infections.

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and safety of Cold snare polypectomy for removing 5-9mm small intestinal polyps in patients with Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome (PJS),in order to provide some reference for clinical strategy of endoscopic treatment of small intestinal polyps in PJS patients, and may prolong the follow-up period of PJS patients Intervals.
