To observe the relationship between the activity of rheumatoid arthritis and popliteal/epitrochlear lymph node morphology and the drainage of hand/foot superficial lymphatic vessels

The prognosis of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (ISLA) remains a serious complication of cirrhosis. Rapid diagnosis of ISLA is a key issue for improving the prognosis. The determination of calprotectin in ascites, used for the diagnosis of infection of ascitic liquid, could allow the diagnosis in a very short time (about 30 minutes). To date, the determination of calprotectin in ascites was not evaluated properly. The investigators would thus evaluate the interest of the determination of calprotectin in ascites for the rapid diagnosis of ISLA in cirrhotic patients, like you, hospitalized for decompensation of their disease. The main purpose of this pilot study will determine the optimal threshold calprotectin in ascites for diagnosis of ISLA.

Molecular imaging with infliximab antibody with FITC has the potential to predict therapeutic responses to infliximab antibody and can be used for personalized medicine in ulcerative colitis.

To describe the clinical profile of COPD patient who is under outpatient surveillance at polyclinic institutions of Moscow (including demographic data (age, gender, ethnicity, occupation), smoking status, disease duration, disease severity grade, distribution by disease phenotype, disease exacerbation rate in the setting of real-life clinical practice).

The primary aim of the study is to investigate whether optical coherence tomography (OCT) may be a useful tool for investigating the in-vivo histology of ocular structures in patients with tear film pathology. In epiphora the investigators will image the proximal lacrimal system. In dry eye syndrome the investigators will image the lacrimal gland and also the buccal mucosa. The secondary aim of the study is to investigate the appearance of the normal cornea and conjunctiva under OCT imaging.

Prospective, observational clinical monocentric study in ICU; Relationship between Pronostic Inflammatory and Nutritional Index (PINI) (and biomarkers related to PINI) and mortality, morbidity and nutrition in ICU

This is a follow-up cohort study of 8 years old children born preterm at Seoul National University Children's Hospital in Korea from 2008-2009. The children will visit outpatient clinics for examinations regarding growth, obesity and other risk factors related to metabolic syndrome. The purpose of this study is to compare growth and risk factors of metabolic syndrome among children born preterm and children born healthy term at school age

Previously published studies have indicated that there exist difference in electrical properties (EPs), i.e., the conductivity and relative permittivity, between malignant and adjacent normal tissue, which will be useful in the early detection of cancers. While the EP informations of cancer tissues are not sufficient enough. The purpose of this study is to measure the electrical properties of the excised malignant tissues obtained from cancer surgeries.

The Silesian Cardiovascular Database is an observational study of all patients hospitalized due to cardiovascular diseases. The date include information on the clinical characteristics, treatment modalities and prognosis in this population. The data include information on all the applicable diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, prognosis and hospitalization costs. Likewise, data have been collected specialist care outpatient visits and primary health care patients were hospitalized.

The purpose of this research is to develop a predictive nomogram for primary ovarian insufficiency.
