Active clinical trials for "Wounds and Injuries"

The study is a 56-day (8-week), randomized, controlled, examiner-blinded, parallel-design study of patients with existing Stage II or Stage III periodontitis. After eligibility determination, subjects will be randomized to the following groups: Group 1: Full mouth periodontal debridement + Emanate Tray (treatment group) Group 2: Full mouth periodontal debridement alone (control group) Patients will be evaluated at Baseline and on Days 14, 28, and 56 for primary endpoint and at baseline and on day 56 post-treatment for secondary (efficacy) endpoints.

Our study is aimed to evaluate the effect of 3D printing assistive device on hand function for patients with neural injury.

This study will use a randomized controlled design with an active attention control group to evaluate an intervention intended to reduce social isolation and loneliness in persons with SCI/D. The intervention, Caring Connections, is a peer-based intervention which is important because peers with SCI/D play an important role in improving quality of life, mental health, and social health in persons with SCI/D.

Our team has constructed a prediction model based on the expression level of lncRNA (lncRNA-UCID、NEAT1、ciRS-7) to predict the chronicization of radiation-induced acute intestinal injury (RAII) and verified the predictive efficacy of the system in retrospective studies. This clinical study intends to further prospectively verify the accuracy of this prediction model in rectal cancer patients. In this study, we plan to enroll 200 patients diagnosed with locally advanced rectal cancer by pathology and MRI, who undergo neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCRT) and total mesorectal excision (TME) and develop RAII during NCRT or within 1 month. We will follow up the occurrence and progression of radiation-induced intestinal injury within 1 year after TME. Expression levels of lncRNA will be detected in pathological tissue after TME and applied to the prediction model to predict the chronicization of RAII. Based on the clinical diagnosis of chronic radiation-induced intestinal injury, the area under curve (AUC), accuracy, precision, specificity, and sensitivity of this prediction model in predicting the chronicization of RAII will be evaluated. The main outcome hypothesis is that the AUC of chronicization of RAII predicted by the prediction model based on the expression level of lncRNA is more than 0.8.

Our team has constructed a prediction model based on the phase separation level of DNA repair factors (MRNIP、NONO、NOP53) to predict radiation-induced late intestinal injury (RLII) and verified the predictive efficacy of the system in retrospective studies. This clinical study intends to further prospectively verify the accuracy of this prediction model in rectal cancer patients.

Phase separation level of DNA repair factors will be detected in pathological tissue after TME and applied to the prediction model to predict RLII.

The main outcome hypothesis is that the AUC of RLII predicted by the prediction model based on the phase separation level of DNA repair factors is more than 0.8.

Sepsis has emerged as one of the important life-threatening infectious diseases with high morbidity and mortality. Sepsis-associated kidney injury (SAKI) is one of the most common and serious complications of sepsis. It has been found that intestinal flora may affect the occurrence and development of a variety of diseases, and may also affect the pathogenesis of multiple SAKI, which is also regulated by host genetic factors. Therefore, the investigators speculate that gut microbiota composition may be associated with susceptibility to SAKI, and there are no studies reporting the association between gut microbiota and SAKI. The investigators intend to carry out a multicenter study in conjunction with the Department of Intensive Care of Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital. The structure and function of intestinal flora in septic patients with renal injury and septic patients less susceptible to renal injury are studied by 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing technology. The differences in composition, diversity and structural stability of intestinal flora between the two groups are analyzed to explore the genera that play a key role in the occurrence of the disease. By analyzing the differences between renal injury and inflammation levels in each group, the correlation between intestinal flora and SAKI, the possible influencing links involved, and the related factors affecting the prognosis of SAKI were revealed. The results of this study are helpful to further elucidate the pathogenesis of SAKI and provide new ideas and methods for the prevention and treatment of SAKI.

Although current rehabilitation protocols following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) are based on the graft remodeling process, there is uncertainty about its time schedule. Moreover, there are individual differences in neuromotor learning and flexibility after ACLR. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of a criterion-based rehabilitation protocol on pain intensity, effusion, and knee function in amateur athletes following ACLR.

The aim of this comparative study is to determine whether or not LOSARTAN with its anti-fibrotic action has an added effect when administrated with platelet rich plasma injection on skeletal muscle healing and on decreasing the fibrous scar after muscle injuries in comparison with the sole administration of platelet rich plasma.

In this research, the patients with chronic wounds accompanied by pain were treated by injecting freshly manufactured tissue permeable hyaluronan fragment HA35 into the tissue under the heath skin immediately surrounding the chronic wounds.
