Twenty-seven breast cancer women without heart failure, underwent CMR imaging (3T-Achieva, Philips) before and 3 times serially after 4-cycles of adjuvant DOX (60mg/m2). CMR assessed left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF), T1 mapping pre and post gadolinium and late gadolinium enhancement imaging. Biomarkers were obtained before and 72 hours after each DOX-cycle.
NCT02103894
The goal of this study is to assess \[18F\]MNI-777 PET imaging as a tool to detect tau pathology in the brain of individuals who carry a clinical diagnosis of a tauopathy, including: Alzheimer's Disease (AD),Parkinson's disease (PD) Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and Frontal Temporal Dementia (FTD) and age- and gender-matched healthy subjects.
NCT01330433
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded-evaluator study that will evaluate the effectiveness of a surgical sealant (CoSeal) composed of biocompatible polyethylene glycol on the formation of mediastinal and pericardial adhesions in children undergoing staged surgical reconstruction (potential procedures include: Blalock-Taussig Type Operation, Classical Glenn Procedure, Bidirectional Glenn Procedure, Norwood). Additionally, bleeding will be evaluated by drainage post-operatively through surgical site drainage output.
NCT00313209
The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of roflumilast on pulmonary function and symptomatic parameters in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) during concomitant administration of salmeterol. The study duration will last up to 28 weeks. The study will provide further data on safety and tolerability of roflumilast.
NCT02818543
The purpose of this study to assess the pharmacokinetic profile in patients with active ulcerative colitis and compare it to the experience in healthy volunteers.
NCT01321229
The sleep respiratory troubles (central apnea or CHEYNES-Stokes dyspnea) are frequent after stroke. The association of the sleep respiratory troubles with a reserved functional prognosis is debated. The purpose is to find out the frequency of the sleep respiratory troubles after stroke in a PRM department and to study their relationship with functional and neurological recovery.
NCT01426607
This is a randomized controlled study evaluating the impact of 2 months of oral appliance therapy on endothelial function in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome intolerant to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy.
NCT02989207
The aim is to perform a randomised feasibility trial preceding a large prospective randomised controlled trial (RCT) comparing three surgical methods - trabeculectomy with Mitomycin C (MMC), primary Baerveldt tube with MMC and Baerveldt tube without MMC - in black African/African Caribbean patients with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG) living in London. The UK Office of National Statistics estimated that among the population of England in 2007, approximately 4.3% were of African/African-Caribbean background, while in large cities such as London and Birmingham about 20% of the population is of African/African-Caribbean origin. For eye units in these cities, managing glaucoma in this population is challenging and we need to identify a better alternative to our current standard surgical treatment. There is now evidence from one RCT which shows better overall outcomes from tube surgery in comparison to trabeculectomy for glaucoma. However, this study did not address black populations specifically and did not address the potential role of MMC in tube surgery. This feasibility study will enable us to design a fully powered RCT with the aim of determining how best to optimise the surgical treatment of POAG in black populations, by comparing outcomes in three types of glaucoma surgery.
NCT00577382
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how effective Sunitinib works in treating acral lentiginous and mucosal melanoma which has spread beyond the local region. Suninitib is a protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitor and acts as a c-kit inhibitor drug. It is believed to work by blocking signals on certain cancer cells which allow the malignant cells to multiply and spread due to a change in the genetic make up of the cancer cell.
NCT00060723
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in children may be responsible for disruptive daytime behaviors such as inattention and hyperactivity. Many children undergo tonsillectomy for SDB and disruptive daytime behaviors. However, the link between SDB and disruptive behavior is not clearly understood. This study will evaluate the relationship between SDB and disruptive behavior.
NCT01673594
The purpose of this study is to a) assess the efficacy of naltrexone in preventing stimulant-induced euphoria in adults with ADHD, b) assess whether naltrexone will interfere with the clinical efficacy of stimulants in treating adults with ADHD, c) assess whether naltrexone will interfere with the effects of stimulants on neurotransmitter activity. We predict that naltrexone will successfully prevent stimulant-induced euphoria without interfering with the ability of stimulants to effectively treat ADHD in adults. This study will be an 8 -week trial with young adults (18-24) with ADHD.
NCT02179372
The aim of this study is to test Eicosapentaenoic free fatty acid's effects on calprotectin levels in IBD patients in clinical remission. During the study fecal calprotectin levels will be measured every 3 months and clinical flares will be registered.
NCT01464567
Weaning of mechanical ventilation (MV) is an essential part in management of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) when critically ill. The best strategy to be used has not been established. Objective: To compare the Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT) in Pressure Support Ventilation with SBT through "T" tube in weaning of MV in patients with COPD. Design: Randomized Clinical Trial. Methods: This study will include patients with COPD, admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceição, undergoing MV for at least 48 hours. When considered by the care team ready for SBT, they will be randomized to one of the following strategies: SBT in Pressure Support or SBT through "T" Tube. The primary endpoint of this study will be the reduction in the days spent on MV. Other outcomes measured will be mortality, extubation and success rate, time to weaning of MV, length of ICU stay and incidence of tracheostomy.
NCT01502332
The purpose of this study was to evaluate prospectively the impact of two protective mechanical ventilation strategies, both using low tidal volume ventilation (6 mL/kg/ibw) after cardiac surgery. The study selected patients presenting signals of deficient gas exchange (PaO2/FIO2 \< 250 at a PEEP \[positive end expiratory pressure\] of 5 cmH2O) in the immediate post-operative period. An aggressive alveolar recruitment protocol applying opening pressures of 45 cmH2O, followed by ventilation with PEEP = 13 cmH2O, was compared to the standard alveolar recruitment protocol of the institution, where an opening pressure of 20 cmH2O in the airways is followed by ventilation with PEEP = 8 cmH2O. After a stabilizing period of four hours of controlled mechanical ventilation, the patients followed the routine weaning protocol and physiotherapy protocol of the institution.
