NCT05847270
At present, there is a lack of standardized, large-scale, and high-level evidence-based medicine research on the safety and effectiveness of treatment of irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation (IAAD).Based on this, the goal of this prospective randomized controlled study is to systematically investigate the optimal surgical approach (simple posterior approach and the combined anterior and posterior approach) for managing IAAD, providing insights into the most efficacious and safest course of action. And long-term follow-up will be conducted on patients to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of different surgical methods, and to develop diagnostic and treatment standards for irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation.
NCT06194617
There's no unified recommendation in clinical practice regarding adjusting dosages for different patient types, especially when adverse events occur. While rivaroxaban typically doesn't require coagulation monitoring, in elderly patients, particularly those with multiple medications, finding appropriate lab indicators becomes crucial to gauge its anticoagulant effect. This aids in evaluating precise rivaroxaban dosing for the elderly, balancing bleeding risks and recurrence. Clinical pharmacological studies suggest that drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in different populations can guide dosage optimization. Hence, this study aims to provide a basis for optimizing dosing regimens in high-risk elderly patients in China by exploring pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic indicators in clinical practice.
NCT06194682
This retrospective, prospective observational study aims to evaluate the epidemiology and rate of anterior cruciate ligament re- rupture after surgery in patients treated from January 2020 to December 2030 by recording both clinically and radiographically ligament reconstruction. The primary outcome is the rate of rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament as measured by the Lachmann test in which a positive value for re-rupture is an anterior translation of the tibia greater than 10mm relative to the femur Secondary Objectives: Verify predisposing factors to anterior cruciate ligament injuries (so anatomical factors such as tibial slope, trochlear groove), demographic factors (age, sex, weight, sports played), and the rate of return to sports, quality of life via questionnaires, and arthrosis at the operated knee

Quantitative Genioglossal muscle strength in Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSAS) defined in the clinical spectrum of subjects with Snoring Disturbance, Oral Appliance Therapy Responsive, and CPAP Responsive
NCT06060405
This is a multi-site Canadian, window of opportunity study to evaluate the immune activity of durvalumab and oleclumab in resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) when given prior to surgery.
NCT06078436
This study aims to compare the impact of hemodynamic monitoring using pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) on survival and inotropic agent reduction in patients with cardiogenic shock caused by heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The investigators also intend to compare the difference in long-term survival rates among patients who have recovered from cardiogenic shock due to HFrEF, based on the timing of initiation of beta-blocker treatment.
NCT06032767
The goal of this observational study is to apply the CNN-based DL method to extract the three-dimensional spatial information of IMRT dose distribution to predict the occurrence probability of serious radiotherapy and chemotherapy induced oral mucositis(SRCOM), and compare with a model based on dosimetry, NTCP or doseomics to improve the prediction accuracy of SRCOM, thus guiding the clinical planning design, reducing the occurrence probability of OM, and may have the potential value of preventing serious complications and improving the quality of life in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
NCT03623113
The study is designed to evaluate two different dietitian-led self-management approaches in carbohydrate counting compared to routine dietary care (control) on glycaemic control in adult patients with type 1 diabetes: 1. The basic carbohydrate counting concept aims at improving carbohydrate counting accuracy and day-to-day consistency of carbohydrate intake (the BCC intervention) 2. The advanced carbohydrate counting concept aims at improving prandial insulin dose accuracy using an automated bolus calculator (the ABC-ACC intervention) The main hypothesis is that structured training and education in either the BCC concept or the ABC-ACC concept will reduce HbA1c or the average glucose variability more than routine dietary education.

ESD additional postoperative radiotherapy in patients with non healing SESCC overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) 2. The adverse events (AE) of additional radiotherapy after ESD for non-curative SESCC patients were counted, and its safety was evaluated. Participants will receive radiation therapy as necessary.
NCT04963192
Chronic respiratory diseases such as obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) constitute a major public health problem, due to their high prevalence, but especially because of their cardiovascular and metabolic morbidity and mortality and the associated costs for the health system. The organization of long-term management of these diseases is now part of the e-health process, digital health with the use of massive "big data" generated by care and follow-up. Therapeutic patient education and the integration of connected objects will allow personalized therapeutic education support with interventions by local medical staff adapted to the needs of the patients. This will also allow to objectify the effect of treatments such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) for OSA or non-invasive ventilation (NIV) and/or oxygen therapy for COPD, not only on the prevention of respiratory decompensation but also on cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors which are major elements of the prognosis. This project will therefore make it possible to demonstrate the feasibility and to deploy a multi-actor care pathway in the territory. The investigators propose a prospective clinical study, conducted at the Verdun Hospital, with the main objective of studying the evolution of the quality of life of patients with a chronic respiratory pathology, during an integrated management at home for 6 months. The secondary objectives: * To study the evolution of the following parameters, before treatment (at inclusion) and after 6 months of integrated management: 1. Treatment compliance (CPAP or NIV/oxygen therapy) 2. Physical activity 3. Weight 4. Mean arterial pressure 5. Oxygen saturation, heart rate and respiratory rate for COPD patients 6. Severity of COPD for the patients concerned 7. Daytime sleepiness 8. Fatigue 9. Patient acceptability of the use of connected objects * To analyze the trajectories of the measures collected throughout the integrated management to identify specific profiles. * To analyze the daily data of the different connected objects and treatments with regard to the patients' profiles (according to age, gender, comorbidities, OSA or COPD group).
NCT04606056
Intravenous iodinated contrast media is commonly used to enhance diagnostic yield of computer tomography (CT) scans in clinical medicine. However, the perceived risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) frequently limits its use. While CIN is often self-limiting, it can cause significant morbidity by prolonging admissions and rendering an at-risk individual dialysis dependent. CIN has long been observed and described in clinical studies. There is ample data on CIN after administration of intraarterial contrast, but evidence is less compelling when it comes to intravenous contrast. Increasing studies have called into question the actual risk of intravenous contrast media. Expert panels are suggesting that the risk could have been overstated, leading to contrast being withheld when indicated. There is paucity of local data on this particular issue. More real world data on the actual incidence and risk factors of AKI will be helpful to clinicians. The investigators plan to conduct a single center, retrospective study, to determine the incidence and risk factors of post contrast AKI in contrast enhanced CT scans.
NCT06189326
The high success rate of the non-penetrating deep sclerectomy (NPDS) procedure in adult glaucomatous patients motivated some glaucoma specialists to try it as an alternative procedure in childhood PCG. In deep sclerectomy, the surgeon fashions a partial-thickness scleral flap and excises the outer parts of both Schlemm's canal and trabecular meshwork without opening the eye, leaving a thin trabeculo-descemetic membrane. This membrane will guard against early postoperative hypotony due to the non-penetrating nature of the procedure. The aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy outcomes of non-penetrating deep sclerectomy versus combined trabeculotomy-trabeculectomy in the treatment of congenital primary glaucoma
NCT04769219
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of secondary prevention education given to individuals after acute myocardial infarction on physiological parameters, anxiety and quality of life.
NCT06170632
Migration of stones from the gallbladder to the common bile duct (CBD) facilitated by gallbladder contractions can be listed as a complication of gallstones disease. In the case of common bile duct stone (CBDs) migration, an endoscopic cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) should be offered for both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients fit for the procedure. An ERCP with an adequate endoscopic sphincterotomy obtains a complete biliary clearance in about 80-90% of the patients\[5\]. Whilst most cases are successfully treated with such first-line approaches, about 10-15% need alternative and/or adjunctive techniques to achieve bile duct clearance. These conditions are generally defined as "difficult" bile duct stones, a broad category of cases that encompasses very different scenarios. In the case of irretrievable CBDs, the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) recommends the endoscopic placement of a temporary biliary plastic stent to warrant biliary drainage. Since their introduction, fully covered self-expanding metal stents (FCSEMS) have rapidly been adopted for the treatment of benign biliary conditions such as strictures, leaks, or bleeding. In a recent retrospective study it has been shown that FCSEMS are useful in the approach of difficult lithiasis of CBD with no significant adverse events associated. Moreover, a promising FC-SEMS with a particular prosthesis design (flare type - Niti-S "S-Type" Taewoong) could be even more useful since it reduces the frequent complication of fully covered stents which is the migration of the prosthesis. However, prospective data on the effectiveness and on the adverse events rate on the use of SEMS for incomplete stone CBDs clearance are still lacking. Therefore, the investigators aim to estimate the incidence of adverse events, complete biliary clearance, and migration rate after 3-6 month from ERCP index (stent positioning), comparing plastic stents vs FC-SEMS (Niti-S "flare type" - Taewoong).
NCT06185153
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) infections are emerging infections that pose a therapeutic challenge. These infections mainly occur in patients with prolonged hospitalization and repeated exposure to antibiotics. Certain strains, notably VIM-producing strains, may remain sensitive to carbapenems. CPE VIM strains are rare in France, but represent the main CPE strains in many countries. They are historically the main type of carbapenemases isolated at the Strasbourg University Hospital.
NCT06178484
Isolated ruptures of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) can be proximal, distal or occur in the middle of the ACL. Treatment of patients with proximal lesions should be graded. Functional treatment can be reserved for low-demanding patients in whom the practice level is limited and the risk of progression to a knee functionally unstable less marked. In athletes, the risk of a new sprain must be explained and the patient will choose a functional treatment or a surgical treatment. Few studies exist in the literature on the superiority of surgical treatment compared to functional treatment. In this context, this study is based on the hypothesis that patients undergoing ACL surgical repair have better functional scores and more intense sport activity than patients with functional treatment.
NCT01072539
The primary objective of this study is to identify any changes on the safety profile of adverse events and serious adverse events. And the secondary objective is to evaluate clinical response in the clinically evaluable population at test-of cure (TOC) or at the end of treatment (EOT) assessment, and microbiologic response at the subject level, if available.
NCT04846400
Children with hypotonic upper airway obstruction have a high prevalence of severe obstructive sleep apnea, which if not treated has significant clinical consequence. Available treatment approaches, such as surgery and positive airway pressure, show limited efficacy and adherence. The multidisciplinary team has developed and now proposes to further test a non-surgical, well-tolerated nasopharyngeal airway device that in initial patients has resolved even extremely severe obstructive sleep apnea, and improved patient and family quality of life.
