NCT00694772
Removal of the adenoid and tonsils, known as an adenotonsillectomy (AT) is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures in North America. The two most prevalent indications for this procedure in children are recurrent bacterial tonsillitis and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA is a common childhood condition that is characterized by upper airway obstruction, disturbed sleep and disrupted normal respiratory gas exchange. In the majority of children with OSA, overgrowth of the adenoid and tonsils is the primary underlying aetiology, making tissue removal via AT the standard of care. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of two different surgical techniques, electrocautery-tonsillectomy and coblation-tonsillotomy, in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children.
NCT00259545
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if retarded release phosphatidylcholine is an effective alternative to steroid dependent or -refractory course in chronic active ulcerative colitis. The hypothesis is, that ulcerative colitis is caused by a barrier defect of the colonic mucus layer. The background of the study is the finding, that the phosophatidylcholine content of the colonic mucus is strongly reduced in ulcerative colitis (UC) compared to healthy controls and patients with Crohn´s disease. The content was measured in non-inflamed areas of the colon in UC. Thus, we evaluate whether a substitution of colonic PC is an effective method for steroid dependent UC.
