Improving Care of Prader-Willi Syndrome : Evaluation of a New Care Program Combining Adapted Physical...

Prader-Willi SyndromeObesity

Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare and complex genetic disease characterized by hypothalamic-pituitary axis dysfunction combining eating disorders associated with hyperphagia and satiety deficiency, mild intellectual deficit and behavioral disorders. This disease requires continuous management through specific therapeutic education to prevent metabolic and cardiorespiratory complications related to obesity. Physical activity must therefore be regular, adapted to the disability, taking into account cognitive deficits and behavioral disorders. Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare and complex genetic disease characterized by hypothalamic-pituitary axis dysfunction combining eating disorders associated with hyperphagia and satiety deficiency, mild intellectual deficit and behavioral disorders. This disease requires continuous management through specific therapeutic education to prevent metabolic and cardiorespiratory complications related to obesity. Physical activity must therefore be regular, adapted to the disability, taking into account cognitive deficits and behavioral disorders. The Unit of Care and Rehabilitation, of the Hôpital Marin d'Hendaye, receives patients with PWS or other obesity from rare causes, at a rate of 1 to 2 annual stays of 1 to 2 months, which allow the regulation of somatic disorders and the initiation of weight loss. However, the difficulty is to keep a stable weight curve between stays. Only 20% of patients over the last 2 years managed to stabilize or decrease their BMI during the 6 months following their hospitalization. The proposed study aims to evaluate an innovative and individualized care program combining Physical activity, Nutrition and therapeutic education for adults with PWS who will be admitted to the hospital for 5 weeks. We hypothesize that this program will allow to stabilize or decrease the BMI of patients at 6 months after hospitalization by inducing a behavioral change in terms of physical activity and eating behavior. We will conduct a randomized controlled trial on 128 patients who will participate in this program, or will benefit from standard care.

IVF\ICSI Outcome in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) of Bilateral Ovaries

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) occurs in 5% to 10% of all women of reproductive age and 50% of women who present with sub-fertility due to anovulatory infertility . Clear diagnostic criteria for this condition were identified at the consensus meeting of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine .

Testing a Combination of Vaccines for Cancer Prevention in Lynch Syndrome

Lynch Syndrome

This phase IIb trial tests whether Tri-Ad5 in combination with N-803 works to prevent colon and other cancers in participants with Lynch syndrome. Each of the three injections in Tri-Ad5 vaccine contain a different substance that is in precancer and cancer cells. Injecting these substances may cause the immune system to develop a defense against cancer that recognizes and destroys any precancer and cancer cells that produce these proteins in the future. N-803 may increase immune responses to other vaccines. Giving Tri-Ad5 in combination with immune enhancing N-803 may lower the chance of developing colon and other cancers in participants with Lynch syndrome.

Urea Cream Prevention for Capecitabine Associated Hand Foot Syndrome

Hand-Foot Syndrome

Hand foot skin reaction (HFS) from capecitabine is one of the most common adverse events from capecitabine. Urea cream has been proved its benefit to prevent HFS from sorafenib. Prior study using urea cream prophylaxis in patients receiving capecitabine was negative. However, result from aformentioned study was reported primarily from result of first cycle capecitabine. Urea cream as a prevention of HFS from capecitabine has been used in clinical practice in Thailand according to expert's opinion. We conducted the study to evaluate wheter the urea cream can prevent HFS or severe HFS.

The Effects of Manual Lymphatic Drainage and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation in Premenstrual...

Premenstrual Syndrome

The aim of this study is to (a) investigate the effects of manual lymphatic drainage and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on the severity of syndrome symptoms, pain, heart rate variability, and quality of life in women with premenstrual syndrome, and (b) compare the effectiveness of these two methods. Female participants who met the inclusion criteria and volunteered to participate in the study will be called approximately one week before menstruation. After the participants are randomly divided into 3 groups, their baseline assessments will be made. Then, the participants will be treated according to the group they are assigned to. Treatments will be applied for 5 days and once a day. No treatment will be applied to the control group. The assessments will be repeated after the treatment, on 1st day of menstruation, two days before the next menstruation, and on the first day of the next menstruation. The hypothesis of this study is that manual lymphatic drainage and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation have positive effects on the severity of premenstrual syndrome symptoms, pain, heart rate variability, and quality of life.

Alzheimer's Autism and Cognitive Impairment Stem Cell Treatment Study

Alzheimer DiseaseAlzheimer Dementia19 more

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the use of autologous Bone Marrow Derived Stem Cells (BMSC) as a means to improve cognitive impairment as occurs in Alzheimer's Disease and other dementias and to improve behavior and socialization issues which occur in adult Autism Spectrum Disorder. The use of Near Infrared Light, in conjunction with the use of BMSC, will also be assessed.

Potential for Inhaled Nitric Oxide and Ventilation-Perfusion Mismatch by Electrical Impedance Tomography...

Nitric OxideAcute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

In the recent years, the treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome has been proved that lung recruitment re-opens the non-ventilated alveolar to improve ventilation, and inhaled Nitric Oxide dilates non-perfused pulmonary vascular to improve perfusion. Both of these could improve ventilation-perfusion mismatch to enhance oxygenation. However, Ventilation-Perfusion mismatch is devided into ventilated nonperfused lung units(dead space) or perfused nonventilated units(shunt). No published study has evaluated the availability of lung recruitment combined with inhaled Nitric oxide in patients with ARDS. The aims of our study are to measure dead space or shunt fraction before and after inhaled Nitric Oxide in moderate to severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome patients indicated Nitric oxide in FEMH MICU on 2021/01-2022/12, injected a bolus of 10mL of 3% NaCl solution via the central venous catheter with two-step recruitment maneuver by Electrical Impedance Tomography, which monitors ventilation-perfusion mismatch to evaluate whether the patient has potential to improve V/Q mismatch by Nitric oxide.
