Lymphedema occurs not only in patients with breast cancer and gynecological cancers but also in those where lymphatic drainage is obstructed. Accumulation of lymphatic fluid within tissues results in limb swelling. Additionally, proteins present in lymphatic fluid might lead to fibrosis within tissues, causing various challenges for patients. The changes in volume and weight can significantly impact daily life activities such as eating, brushing teeth, and other routine tasks. Furthermore, it can lead to clothing difficulties and provoke unwanted attention due to aesthetic concerns. Currently, there is no definitive treatment for lymphedema. However, prospective research has shown promising results in applying extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), originally used for musculoskeletal disorders like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, frozen shoulder, and non-union fractures, to lymphedema patients. Similarly, Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMFT), widely used for pain management and muscle strengthening, has the potential for treating lymphedema as it can enhance blood circulation and stimulate muscle contractions. This research project aims to explore the effectiveness and sustainability of using ESWT and PEMFT for lymphedema patients. By applying these therapies to lymphedema patients, this study aims to evaluate their treatment outcomes and long-term effects.

To assess the efficacy and safety of the Skin stylus Sterilock microneedling system in reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles.This study is intended to be a single arm study. Suitable subjects who meet all inclusion criteria and consented will undergo 4 microneedling sessions at baseline and days 30, 60 and 90. Subjects will be assessed at days 90, 120 and finally at day 150 by a physician utilizing the wrinkle grading scale developed by Lemperle (2001) and skin laxity and texture using a modified Alexiandes Armenakas (2010) grading scale.

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of limb occlusion therapy (remote ischemic conditioning, RIC) in subjects with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The main question it aims to answer is whether RIC can improve long-term recovery in participants with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Researchers will compare levels of functional independence in participants in the RIC-group to participants in the sham-group.

This study is a single-arm, multicenter clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SBRT combined with cardonilizumab and lenvastinib in the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombus

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare letrozole alone versus letrozole plus levothyroxine for ovulation induction in infertile women with both PCOS and subclinical hypothyroidism. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is letrozole plus levothyroxine superior to letrozole alone in achieving ovulation in these patients? Does combining levothyroxine with letrozole lead to higher pregnancy and live birth rates compared to letrozole alone? Participants will be randomized into two groups: Group 1 will receive letrozole only, starting at 2.5 mg daily from day 3 to 7 of the menstrual cycle. The dose will be increased up to 7.5 mg if no ovulation occurs, for a maximum treatment period of 6 months or until pregnancy is achieved. Group 2 will receive letrozole at the same doses as group 1 plus 25 mcg levothyroxine daily.

Children had Down syndrome often have impaired balance and postural control and result as less active than their peers that can lead to reduced quality of life and movement skills. Effects of physical activity may be important in preventing falling risk and health consequences in those children

HDAC inhibitor chidamide and PI3K inhibitor linperlisib has shown clinical activity as mono therapy in PTCL. The combination of duvelisib and romidepsin is highly active against relapsed and refractory T-cell lymphomas including cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs). The aim of this study is to further explore the efficacy and safety of HDAC inhibitor chidamide combined with PI3K inhibitor linperlisib in the treatment of relapsed and refractory CTCLs.

A case series to provide post marketing evaluation of the MyPAO surgical planning and patient specific guides technology. This will be a single-centre, multi-surgeon evaluation assessing the safety of the use of these guides in periacetabular osteotomy surgery.

An interventional prospective randomised clinical trial (RCT) in parallel groups is planned. The sample size was 30 patients who will be randomly divided into two groups based on the surgical procedure. The first group is the healing of the donor zone after SCTG harvesting without filling the wound with collagen matrix. The second group is the wound defect closure in the donor area using the collagen matrix "FibroMATRIX" (LLC "Cardioplant", Russia; registration in Russia 20/05/2019 No FSZ 2019/83671). Changes in volumetric parameters of the maxillary tuberosity area after CTG harvesting, severity of pain, postoperative edema, bleeding, analgesic intake and quality of life in the postoperative period will be assessed.

A total of 34 participants, who require replacement of an anterior or posterior single tooth with dental implant, will be randomly allocated to two equal sized groups. In the control group, the osteotomy site preparation will be prepared by using conventional surgical drills, while the test group site preparation will involve the use of Densah™ Burs (Versah Co., LLC., USA) as per the osseodensification protocol. In addition to evaluating implant stability, the trial will also report on implant and patient outcomes at various time points.
