Hyponatremia occurs frequently in patients with acute brain injury in the days to weeks following injury, and may contribute to adverse outcome. In addition, hyponatremia can aggravate neurologic dysfunction, complicate neurological assessments, and contribute to neurologic symptoms such as gait dysfunction that can impair efforts at mobilization and rehabilitation. Strict normonatremia (serum Na levels between 135 and 145 meq/dl) is the goal in most patients with acute brain injury. SIADH is the most frequent cause of hyponatremia in patients with neurological injury; however, treatment with fluid restriction is often difficult or contra-indicated, for example in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) where intravascular hypovolemia can trigger vasospasms. The aim of this project is to test Tolvaptan, an ADH antagonist, as a treatment in selected patients with acute brain injury who have developed SIADH.
NCT03680976
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of 10-nitro-9(E)-octadec-9-enoic acid (CXA-10) in obese adult asthmatics. The study's hypothesis is that 150 mg/day of CXA-10 for 12 weeks will alleviate obesity-related airway hyper-reactivity in obese adult asthmatics.
NCT00053898
RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Tamoxifen may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen. Anastrozole may fight breast cancer by decreasing estrogen production. It is not yet known whether anastrozole is more effective than tamoxifen in preventing the recurrence of breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying anastrozole to see how well it works compared to tamoxifen in preventing the recurrence of breast cancer in postmenopausal women with ductal carcinoma in situ who are undergoing lumpectomy and radiation therapy.
