Active clinical trials for "Wounds and Injuries"

Acute kidney injury is associated with worsened outcome for critically ill patients. Sepsis-associated and non-septic cardiothoracic surgery associated AKI have been reported, nonetheless, precise pathomechanistic differences as well as detectability of transcriptional and proteomic changes in correlation with imaging and plasma markers are unclear.

In this study, we examine how acute to chronic workload ratio and functional movement screen scores relate to injury risk in teenage athletes who play team sports.

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the performance of UCH-L1 and GFAP combined in patients with a mild traumatic brain injury. The main question : • Does the combination of UCH-L1 and GFAP can exclude brain injuries detected with CT scan in the first twelve hours after a mild traumatic brain injury? Participants will do the exams planed in routine care and : during the expected blood sampling an additional blood sample will be done, seven days after the discharge a call will be done by the investigator.

The goal of this experimental observation study is to figure out differently expressed biomarkers in serum in traumatic brain injury patients, compared with bone fracture patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Which proteins and metabolites are differently expressed in TBI patients' serum? Which proteins or metabolites can serve as the new serum biomarkers for diagnosing TBI? Participants will be treated by routine treatments, and their serum samples will be collected in the emergency room.

The percentages of participants in clinical studies haven't always been perfectly representative of a particular group. This research examines the variables that affect a patient's choice to enroll in, discontinue participation in, or resume participation in a clinical trial for spinal cord injury. It will also try to analyze data from the perspective of different demographic groups to check for recurring trends which might yield insights for the sake of future spinal cord injury research.

Historically, participation in clinical trials has been skewed towards certain groups. However, research on the factors that influence participation, both positive and negative, is limited. Brain injury clinical trial patients help us identify these factors by sharing trial experiences during the course of the interventional medical study. This study will include a diverse group of participants to gather a wide range of information on clinical trial experiences. The collected data will then be used to benefit future brain injury patients who are considering participating in a medical study.

The design is a single blinded, dual comparative study of ultrasound versus micro-CT/LASCA in one study group. Up to a total of 140 subjects registered will be recruited. Subjects who are treatment planned for extraction of a hopeless tooth and socket augmentation with bone graft and are planned for a dental implant surgery. The socket will be evaluated before the extraction and multi-time points during healing until an implant is placed with various evaluation tools, including ultrasound.

The purpose of this study is to complete a neuromuscular performance assessment of high school athletes who are participating in school based pre-season strength and performance training program. The performance assessment will screen for existing muscle imbalances and strength deficits known to increase risk for sports injury, and provide a baseline performance measurement. Athletes will be measured before the start of the program and then again at the end of the pre-season training period to measure changes in motor coordination, muscle strength, and performance and injury risk category. Internal and external training load will be measured weekly during the training program to track intensity of the training program. In addition to the pre and post measurements, sports injury occurrence and time away from sports participation will be tracked throughout the sport season/school year to evaluate training program outcomes and accuracy of risk assessment.

Evaluation and characterization of autofluorescence signals of tissue in and around wounds as identified by MolecuLight fluorescence image.

Neurogenic paraosteoarthropathies are peri-articular bone formations that may occur as a result of central neurological injury. Their occurrence limits reeducation and recovery capacities. Neurogenic paraosteoarthropathies sometimes cause complications (pain, joint stiffness, vascular and nerve compression, pressure sores) in patients already suffering from severe neurological sequelae affecting functional prognosis. A lot of clinical research work has been carried out within Dr Salga team. Subsequently, a collaboration was born with fundamental research teams (Pr Levesque, Pr Le Bousse Kerdilès, Pr Banzet, Pr Genêt) allowing translational work between humans and animals. The clinical application of recent research findings now makes it possible to launch the very first prospective study on neurogenic paraosteoarthropathies.
