The purpose of this study is to obtain data on the performance of the EC-3 lens at an interval of two years (and beyond) from subjects who were implanted. The primary aim of the study will be to evaluate the presence, if any, of PCO, lens glistening, and other anomalies in the subjects.

There is growing evidence that psoriasis is a systemic disorder which enhances atherosclerosis and the risk of cardiovascular disease. Epidemiological studies have shown an independent association between psoriasis and atherosclerosis, stroke and coronary artery disease. The main goal of this on-going study is to register data which will enable the identification of new markers of atherosclerosis activity and carotid plaque instability in patients with severe psoriasis.

EGFR mutations plays an essential role in EGFR-TKIs treatment. However, for some patients, tissue samples are not available. The purpose of this study is to determine whether blood sample is feasible for EGFR mutation detection.For late stage NSCLC, we hypothesis plasma sample is an alternative for detecting EGFR mutations.

Aim: To evaluate the influence of oxygen deficit on the cognitive performance and also about the architecture and sleep efficiency in volunteers subjected to mild and moderate exercise in a hypobaric chamber. SUMMARY: Participants in this study 30 healthy male volunteers, aged 20 to 40 years, regular physical activity, constituting three groups: 1 - without exercise-hypoxia group 10 volunteers who not be subjected to any kind of physical exercise in hypoxia and remain all day of experiment, 2 - group exercise at sea level, is composed of 10 volunteers who will undergo a protocol exercise physical sea-level, 3 - group exercise and hypoxia - 10 volunteers who will carry out a protocol exercise on a treadmill, being the same in condition of hypoxia (hypobaric chamber). All groups on the first day of the experiment will undergo baseline assessments, laboratory blood analysis salivary and spirometric testing. Assessments will be personality and neuropsychological. After baseline assessments, the last day of the experiment, the groups will be evaluated again 4350m above sea level the sea, by personality tests, neuropsychological and laboratory. RATIONALE AND BACKGROUND: During exposure to environments with a partial reduction of oxygen, human body can undergo several physiological and psychological changes are not prepared for such condition. Few studies have reported that the elevation changes and cognitive aspects related to sleep. MATERIAL AND METHOD: They describe the procedures to be performed, and the study conducted in local with adequate infrastructure.

postoperative pain and analgesic consumption between the first and the second surgery would be compared in patients undergoing staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty (BTKA).

To investigate the predictive value of the contrast media volume to creatinine clearance (V/CrCl) ratio for the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) (i.e., within 48-72 h) and to determine a relatively safe V/CrCl cut-off value to avoid CIN in patients following PCI

To assess specificity and overall accuracy of interim dual-point acquisition PET in predicting treatment outcome. The study is aimed at assessing the specificity of interim dual-point PET performed after 2 ABVD cycles to predict treatment outcome in early-stage Hodgkin's Lymphoma patients presenting bulky lesions at baseline.

Turkish Acquired Haemophilia Registry is a database in which information about clinical features and therapeutic management of acquired haemophilia is collected in Turkey.This is a multicentre, retrospective and prospective registry of subjects diagnosed and/or treated for acquired haemophilia. Patients will be registered and the response to different therapies, details of each bleeding episode and the outcome of haemostatic and immunosuppressive therapy (IST) will be recorded. Any male or female subject diagnosed with inhibitors to FVIII or other factors and treated for acquired haemophilia can be entered on the registry. Patients will be treated according to local practice. No additional tests or procedures are required by the registry. The retrospective period will not be time-limited and data will be collected from those recorded in the hospital notes. The prospective period will begin in September 1.2011, and will last for two years.

This study is a retrospective review of chart. Clinical results including range of motion, muscle power and scores will be recorded. Arthroscopic surgery of rotator cuff, labrum and capsule well be re-evaluated for clinical application.

The purpose of this study is to assess the glycemic response to cycling road races (using continuous glucose monitoring ) in elite athletes with type 1 diabetes and non-diabetic controls. The investigators will also assess the relationship between power/work during cycling (using a power meter) and the subject's glucose profile.
