NCT04336059
Peripheral nerve blocks are becoming increasingly popular for hip surgery anesthesia. Modern regional anesthesia for major hip surgery includes the use of a single shot and continuous epidural or spinal injections, continuous lumbar plexus blockade and continuous peripheral blockade of the femoral nerve (FN), fascia iliaca (FI) block, 3-in-1 FN block and sciatic nerve. The use of either single shot or continuous peripheral nerve blocks are becoming increasingly popular. This study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of ultrasound guided pericapsular nerve group block in hip arthroplasty surgery.

NCT04758260
Evaluate the influence of antioxidant men supplements treatment (Fertybiotic Hombre) in the rate of sORP (stactic Oxidation Reduction Potential) defined as the balanced measure between the total oxidant activity (ROS, superoxides, nitric oxide, peroxide) and total reducing activity (alpha tocopherol, β carotene, uric acid) in sperm samples during egg donation cycles. We will also evaluate the influence of the sORP rate in the embryo development during the egg donation treatments; taking in account the fecundation rate, percentage of blastocyst stage arrival embryos, number of frozen embryos, implantation rate, on-going pregnancy rate and miscarriage rate. The sperm sample will be measured by electrochemical technology using Mioxsys system for a quantitative measurement in millivolts (mV), in those male patients who participate in an egg donation assisted reproduction treatment. After 14 days, the pregnancy stage will be available. This information will be obtained from the patient's clinical history using the human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (shCG) in blood. It will be performed either in our Clinic or externally within the usual practice derived from the treatment carried out. These values will be compared with the results obtained from sORP.

The aim of the clinical study is: 1. to examine the association between postoperative endothelial function, indirectly measured by reactive hyperemia index, and major adverse cardiovascular events including myocardial injury and cardiac death within 30, 90 and 365 days of acute abdominal surgery. 2. to examine the association between postoperative endothelial function, indirectly measured by reactive hyperemia index, and non-cardiovascular complications including non-cardiac death within 30, 90 and 365 days of acute abdominal surgery. 3. to examine the importance of the postoperative blood glucose level and the pulmonary function for postoperative complications and death within 30, 90 and 365 days of acute abdominal surgery. 4. to examine the association between postoperative endothelial function, pulmonary function and blood glucose level 5. the qualitative part of the study will examine the postoperative subjective symptoms including acute and chronic pain, quality of recovery and functional status, depressive thoughts and post-traumatic stress disorder.
NCT04752748
It is a prospective case-control study with women diagnosed early rheumatoid arthritis. Three therapeutic failures were considered: failure 1 - to the first Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) (methotrexate); failure 2 - to the second DMARDs (leflunomide) and failure 3 - to the first immunobiological drugs (adalimumab). Ultrasound was performed bilaterally on the 2nd and 3rd metacarpophalangeal joints (MCFs), proximal interphalangeal joints (IFPs), and wrists (US10). Ultrasound measurements (qualitative and semi-quantitative) evaluated: 1 - inflammatory: synovial and tenosynovial proliferation in gray scale and power Doppler (0-3); 2 - joint damage: bone erosion (qualitative and semi-quantitative) and cartilage damage (qualitative and semi-quantitative). Clinical and laboratory variables were also assessed blindly at baseline and after 12, 24 e 48 weeks.
NCT04277169
This is a single-centre, prospective, non-randomised volunteer study to be undertaken in the MediCentre, Heath Park, Cardiff, UK
NCT04214314
Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) is a sudden lesion in the brain, not congenital or perinatal,caused by various pathologies.According to the National Statistics Institute,in Spain 78% of people suffering from ABI are a result of stroke,and 22% due to Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) and other causes.The ABI is in most cases with problems of cognitive,physical,emotional,social,family and work.Of all these problems,attentional alterations are one of the most frequent and disabling for these participants,with a prevalence of 30-62%.However,there are currently no specific programs for the rehabilitation of attentional processes in people with ABI in Spain.So recently,a program focused on the rehabilitation of NeuronUp APT attentional processes has been developed,based on the theoretical model of Sohlberg and Mateer,which considers attention as a multidimensional cognitive function that is hierarchically organized.This program includes a large group of rehabilitation activities in contexts similar to those of daily life.Objectives:1)Evaluate the effectiveness of the NeuronUp APT attentional training program for the improvement of the attention problems presented by participants with ABI;2)determine whether the improvement of attention problems in participants with ABI causes changes in their functioning emotional and quality of life and 3)determine whether the improvement of the attention problems in participants with ABI causes changes in the functionality of the participants and, consequently, in the activities of their daily lives.Method:This is a randomized clinical trial, 46 participants with ABI between the ages of 18-65 will be recruited; 23 participants will be assigned to the experimental group (integral rehabilitation+NeuronUp APT) and the other 23 to the control group (integral rehabilitation) randomly,using a simple randomization method.Both groups will be evaluated before the start of the intervention, after the end of the intervention and 6 months after the intervention, thus collecting sociodemographic information,clinical characteristics of the disease, cognitive screening measures,emotional functioning test,functional and quality of life.Conclusions:It is hoped to achieve a transfer of the gains obtained,through the training of the attention through the NeuronUp APT rehabilitation program,to other aspects of cognitive,emotional functioning and quality of life.It is also expected that these people improve their attention problems in their daily lives.

NCT04077398
The quadratus lumborum has since 2016 become standard of care for abdominal and retroperitoneal surgeries at UPMC-Shadyside Hospital, replacing paravertebral blocks, and as part of a broader multimodal analgesia institutional Enhanced Recovery After surgery protocol. Since the first description of this technique, several approaches to and anatomic targets within the quadratus lumborum plane have been described although their mechanism of action, spread, and relative clinical effectiveness remain areas of some debate. What is proposed here is to investigate the relative clinical effectiveness of the relationship high volume/low concentration of local anesthetic or low volume/ high concentration of local anesthetic.
NCT02959294
Concussion is the most common type of brain injury throughout life. Study is seeking improvement of long-term residua following adolescent and adult post-traumatic injuries often associated with contact sports and accidental causes. Typically defined as reversible head injury with temporary loss of brain function. Symptoms range from physical, cognitive, pain (headache) and emotional signs consistent with TBI and Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome. Use of AD-cSVF parenteral delivery to encourage repair of damage and decreased function following concussion, particularly in contact, repetitive sports injuries. Range of damage is measured in Grade I-III according to graduated severity. Unfortunately, less information is available about repetitive concussions and the long-term health issues.
NCT00485667
A reduction in the postoperative need for opioids to enhance the recovery process and increase patient postoperative satisfaction.
NCT04186715
Thyroidectomy operations have traditionally been performed as open surgery. However, the scarring that occurs in the patient leads to cosmetic problems, especially in young women. Today, as a result of the development of minimally invasive surgical techniques, the number of natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgeries (NOTES) is increasing. Surgical scars are avoided by using natural pathways such as the mouth, urethra, vagina or anus. Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy (TOETVA) with vestibular approach, a form of NOTES, was first performed in 2011. In this method, the operation is performed through three ports entered near the gingiva-buccal sulcus. TOETVA surgeries are performed with an insufflation pressure of 6 mmHg in the neck region. No studies are examining the effects of this pressure on the blood vessels in the neck region on the blood supply to the brain tissue. Therefore, the investigators aim to compare cases operated using open thyroidectomy or TOETVA method by measuring cerebral regional tissue saturation.
