Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The purpose of these series research project is to investigate the prevalence, symptoms cluster and characteristic; establish the systemic symptom management nursing strategies (PMS-SMP); determine short-and long-term effectiveness of PMS-SMP. To enhance the health related quality of life of women with Perimenstrual syndrome. Simultaneously, the PMS-SMP offers a research and clinical based protocol to demonstrate the independent nursing role and practice care model. The 3-year series research process will include three research domains.

The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical anti-proliferative activity of STI571 (Glivec®, Novartis, Pharma) in patients with HES defined as: Idiopathic Hypereosinophilic Syndrome (secondary HES), defined as a peripheral blood eosinophilia greater than 1,500 cells/µL for longer than 6 months, absence of other apparent aetiologies for eosinophilia and with or without signs and symptoms of organ involvement, irrespective to expression of any of imatinib targets (c-Kit receptor, PDGFR, bcr-abl receptor) on bone marrow cells. Familiar hypereosinophilia defined as a peripheral blood eosinophilia greater than 1,500 cells/µL for longer than 6 months, absence of other apparent aetiologies for eosinophilia and signs and symptoms of organ involvement, irrespective to expression of any of imatinib targets (c-Kit receptor, PDGFR, bcr-abl receptor) on bone marrow cells, and with a recognized or reported cases of hypereosinophilia in the patient's family. Chronic myeloproliferative disorder, defined as chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL) with the presence of blasts (>10%) in the bone marrow (BM), or the presence of immature eosinophils in different tissues, or an aggressive clinical course or the presence of clonal cytogenetic anomalies. Myeloproliferative disorder (MPD) with eosinophilia, eosinophilic leukemia or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia [myeloproliferative disorders/myelodysplastic syndromes (MPD/MDS)] with evidence of: t(5;12)(q33;p13) by cytogenetic or fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis, or ETV6/TEL-PDGFRB fusion transcript by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), or PDGFRB disruption, assessed or suspected, by other translocations with additional partner genes (H4, HIP1, CEV14 and Rab5) 5, or MPD/MDS who have constitutive activation of the gene for platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRB) 6 by point mutations

This study is designated to determine serum concentrations of inflammatory mediators Ang-1, Ang-2, Ang-1/Ang-2 ratio, and Tie-2 in patients with sepsis-induced MODS and to investigate the association among increased permeability, inflammatory mediators, and these serum mediators in development of organ failure.

An observational study of 102 women with Turner syndrome followed for 6 years with a two-yearly examination including ECHO, MRI of the heart and 24 ambulatory blood pressure. It has been found that besides an significantly increased risk of congenital cardiac malformations, TS have an increased risk of developing cardiac disease including the life threatening condition of aortic dilatation and rupture. The aim of the study is to describe the cardiac conditions of TS, evaluate different methods of examination and identify possible risc factors.

This study randomizes patients seen by Redmond Medic One into a control arm and a study arm when they present with acute coronary syndrome and have non-contributory ECG's (i.e.non-STEMI). The control group is treated normally and delivered to the receiving hospital. The study group is treated normally as well, however troponin measurements are made using an i-STAT blood analyzer prior to hospital arrival. The results are presented to the receiving physician. Door-to-reperfusion time is monitored for both groups.

Background: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is the most common malignancy in children. It accounts for 25% of all childhood cancers. Peak incidence occurs between 2 to 5 years of age. Modern treatment regimens have improved cure rates from virtually zero (in the 1950's) to current overall survival rates of approximately 80%.The high survival rates have introduced us to novel medical problems as a consequences of the different treatment regimens. No single treatment modality exists today but rather several treatment protocols are accepted worldwide. As such, the population of the childhood ALL survivors differ in their toxic exposure: cranial & spinal radiotherapy, intrathecal and/or systemic chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation .As the survival rates grow, there are more young adult ALL survivors worldwide susceptible to these late effects of treatment. Numerous reports have pointed out that this particular group is at increased risk to develop cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes (MS). The metabolic syndrome, i.e hypertension, dyslipidemia, impaired glucose metabolism and obesity, occurs at a younger age than the general population. Adipocytokines, mediators secreted by adipose tissue, play an important role in the regulation of carbohydrates and lipid metabolism.Changes in serum adipokine levels precede the clinical symptoms. We aim to identify and assess prevalence of the MS in ALL survivors. We aim to characterize the population at risk to develop DM and CVD prior to overt clinical disease. Characterization will be done by measuring serum adipocytokines and inflammatory cytokine profiles .Biochemical characterization of the group at risk will enable us to intervene in the preventive stage in the future.

The aim of our study is to analyse the correlation between actigraphy and Lipsitz scoring system in neonatal opioid abstinence syndrome.

The Drug Use Examination (DUE) is planned and designed for the safety evaluation of new indications after the approval of a new drug in Korea. This DUE is a non-interventional, observational and post-marketing surveillance, which will be conducted by collecting the safety information of REVLIMID® for new indications in routine clinical practice in Korea. Six-Hundred (600) adult patients, who start with REVLIMID® treatment based on the approved local package insert (PI) of REVLIMID® during routine clinical practice in Korea and have indications noted below. Patients with transfusion-dependent anemia due to IPSS low- or intermediate-1-risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes associated with a deletion 5q cytogenetic abnormality (del [5q] MDS) Patients with mantle cell lymphoma who have received at least one prior therapy (rrMCL) Previously treated follicular lymphoma (FL), in combination with rituximab (an anti-CD20 antibody)

This is a prospective observational cohort study of patients with prostate cancer who have a metabolic syndrome. The study aims to evaluate the role of intermittent fasting (fasting mimicking diet) in these patients. The primary end point is metabolic health and the secondary endpoint is quality of life.

The aim of this observationnal study is to describe respiratory mechanics and lung recruitement in patients with SARS-CoV-2 Associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome who underwent invasive ventilation on endotracheal tube, admitted to the medical ICU of Angers university hospital . Statics measurements of respiratory system compliance were performed at 2 differents levels of PEEP (15 cmH2O and 5 cmH2O). The recruited volume is computed as the difference between the volume expired from PEEP 15 to 5 cmH2O and the volume predicted by compliance at PEEP 5 cmH2O . The recruitment-to-Inflation (R/I) ratio (i.e. the ratio between the recruited lung compliance and CRS at PEEP 5 cmH2O) is used to assess lung recruitability. A R/I ratio value higher than or equal to 0.5 was used to define highly recruiter patients.
