There is a tremendous clinical need for a noninvasive technique that can assess gastric electrical activity and would be repeatable without any exposure to radiation. Investigators developed a new technique allowing to use noninvasive methods to assess bioelectrical activity in the gastrointestinal system. This has enabled to characterize the normal and pathologic physiology of the stomach through the use of noninvasive magnetogastrogram (MGG) records. Primary hypothesis for this proposal is that analysis of gastric slow wave uncoupling and propagation in multichannel MGG discriminates between normal and pathological gastric electrical activity. Eventually, investigators envision this research leading to new insights for gastrointestinal conditions such as gastroparesis, functional dyspepsia and chronic idiopathic nausea that would inform clinical management of these debilitating diseases.
NCT07456995
This clinical trial evaluates how different surface treatments on a metal base (Ti-Base) affect the success of dental crowns on implants. Patients receiving a zirconia crown for a missing lower back tooth are divided into three groups: one group receives no special treatment on the metal base, one group receives a silica coating, and the third receives both a silica coating and a chemical primer. The study monitors these crowns for one year to see which treatment best prevents the crown from coming loose or breaking, while also checking the health of the surrounding gums.
NCT02404896
Metreleptin was approved in the United States as adjunct to diet as replacement therapy to treat the complications of leptin deficiency in patients with congenital or acquired generalized lipodystrophy in February 2014. The approval was based on results obtained in 2 open-label, investigator-sponsored studies (Studies 991265 and 20010769) conducted at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of metreleptin treatment in patients with lipodystrophy and 1 treatment IND (FHA101/MB002-002/MB002-002) conducted by Bristol-Myers Squibb on behalf of AstraZeneca (BMS/AZ) in patients with diabetes mellitus and/or hypertriglyceridemia related to lipodystrophy. These studies enrolled patients with lipodystrophy including both generalized and partial lipodystrophy. Although the marketing authorization restricted the indication to patients with generalized lipodystrophy, meaningful clinical benefit was achieved in a subset of patients with partial lipodystrophy, and these patients from FHA101/MB002-002 form the basis of the request for ongoing treatment under expanded access.
NCT06679270
This Phase 3 study is an Open Label Extension of the APG-20 Study To Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Daily Subcutaneous Metreleptin Treatment in Subjects with Partial Lipodystrophy

NCT03268824
Focal epilepsy is associated with widespread alterations in structural brain connectivity, often present at the disease onset and related to learning disabilities. Whether ongoing seizure activity contributes to network pathology is a matter of debate. This study intends to measure the impact of seizures on structural connectivity on a local and on a global level. In children examined with intracerebral electrodes to evaluate whether a surgical cure can be proposed, we combine intracerebral stereotactic electroencephalography (EEG) recordings with diffusion weighted imaging of white matter fibers. On the local level, the study will quantify the number of deficient connections in the seizure onset zone. On a global level, the study will compare the white matter fibers of the left and right hemisphere to probe whether physiological language lateralization is preserved.
NCT07134777
This project will collect brain imaging data to quantify the effects of early visual cortex damage and visual training interventions on the structure and function of the residual visual system. Our goal is to improve understanding of the consequences of permanent visual cortex damage in humans, and to understand how visual training impacts the function of the residual visual system to restore perception.
NCT04798924
This research aims to examine changes in plastic potential of the visual system with time from stroke affecting primary visual cortex. We will measure structural and mechanistic aspects of progressive degeneration along the early visual pathways, correlating them with changes in visual performance, and in responsiveness to visual restoration training. This project will advance both scientific knowledge, as well as technical capability and clinical practices for restoring vision and quality of life for people suffering from cortical blindness.
NCT07152067
\*Rationale : Active surveillance of prostate cancer helps to avoid the morbidity associated with curative radical prostatectomy /radiotherapy in patients with early stage disease. However, at 5 years and 15 years, respectively 35 % and nearly 50 % of patients require rescue interventional treatments. Numerous Phase II trials have reported using focal treatments (focused on the macroscopic tumor only while not involving the whole prostatic gland) in order to reduce the morbidity due to recurrence as well as the high anxiety rates under observation only. Stereotactic radiotherapy (highly focused radiotherapy technic to reduce the risk of side effects) is being proposed in the same way as it does not require any anaesthesia, as opposed to all the other focal methods. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate whether focal stereotactic radiotherapy treatments could reduce the rate of rescue treatments among patients eligible to an active surveillance program at first. * Major Inclusion Criteria : * 1\. Early stage prostate adenocarcinoma (CAPRA score ≤ 5) * 2\. No major urinary problems * 3\. Active Surveillance possible * Major Exclusion Criteria : * 1\. Age at diagnosis \< 50 years * 8\. Androgen-deprivation therapy * 9\. Any cancer within the last 5 years except skin basocellular carcinoma or any uncontrolled cancer * Trial : Phase II randomized trial comparing Stereotactic Radiation Therapy focused on the macroscopic tumor or Active Surveillance as the control arm. * Main objective : to compare the rescue treatment rates between the two arms
NCT06589570
Partial dentures play a crucial role in restoring oral function and aesthetics for patients with missing teeth. Traditionally, these prostheses have been fabricated using materials such as acrylic resin or cobalt-chromium alloys. However, advancements in digital dentistry have introduced new materials and manufacturing techniques, including computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) milled titanium. While titanium offers advantages such as biocompatibility, lightweight properties, and corrosion resistance, its impact on speech performance remains understudied.

NCT06960811
Background : Psychiatric comorbidities are common in epilepsy, affecting 50 to 70% of patients, especially when the epilepsy is focal and drug-resistant. Among these comorbidities, psychotic disorders (involving hallucinations and delusions) affect 8% of patients - that is, eight times more frequently than in the general population. Currently, the links between epilepsy and psychotic disorders are poorly understood and often overlooked by physicians, which impacts the mental health care of patients with epilepsy and leads to underdiagnosis. The aim of this research is to determine whether there are differences in epileptic symptoms between patients with a psychotic comorbidity and those without. Study design : The main objective of this research is to better understand whether certain emotional epileptic symptoms are associated with a higher risk of developing psychotic symptoms. The secondary objectives of this study are to investigate whether the level of consciousness during seizures is associated with a higher risk of developing psychotic symptoms. To meet these objectives, the study will include patients who (1) have epilepsy, (2) were hospitalized in the video-EEG unit of the Neurology Department at Central Hospital for seizure recording, and (3) underwent a psychiatric evaluation in the context of epilepsy between January 1, 2016, and April 1, 2025. The study will take place at the University Hospital Center (CHRU) of Nancy, in the Neurology Department, within the video-EEG unit led by Professor Louis Maillard. The research will involve comparing epileptic symptoms between the group of patients without psychosis and the group of patients with psychosis. Data collection will cover the five days of video-EEG hospitalization, along with information from the psychiatric evaluation, for a total duration of approximately one week per year. Information for participants: As part of the routine medical care, data is collected in medical records to ensure appropriate follow-up. For the purposes of this research, data from the medical record will be collected. No identifying information (such as name, initials, full date of birth, address, or social security number) will be collected. No additional visits or examinations will be required. Patients will not be contacted or asked to provide any new information.

NCT06563726
SALT is a multi-centre, non-blinded, non-randomized prospective interventional pilot study teaching lactating parents of hospitalized preterm infants how to test their breastmilk sodium (Na) using point-of-care (POC) meters. A drop in Na is a sign of secretory activation in the breast that is associated with adequate short and long-term breast milk volumes in this vulnerable population. Primary Objective: Establish feasibility, acceptance, and time cost of parent-led parent milk Na testing in the first 14 days postpartum Secondary Objective: Further investigate relationships between pumping behaviours, lactation risk factors, daily milk Na and lactation outcomes Exploratory Objective: Explore how POC Na data may be used to modify pumping behaviour and milk volumes
NCT05015868
Patients with cryptogenic focal epilepsy (unknown cause) represent about the 30% of the entire population of epilepsy patients. Among them, about 30% are drug-resistant. The implementation of of high-field magnetic resonance imaging resolution, the new Next Generation Sequencing techniques,and innovative non-invasive neurophysiological methods (Electroencephalogram-Functional magnetic resonance imaging and High Density-Electroencephalogram) could provide a superior identification of the epileptogenic zone and therefore an increased access to epilepsy surgery. Despite this, patients with cryptogenic epilepsy require more frequently invasive methods of presurgical study and they have more unfavorable results than patients with lesions detectable on magnetic resonance imaging. Within this context, the study is aimed at integrating the neurophysiological, radiological, neuropsychological and genetic aspects of patients with focal cryptogenic epilepsy in order to evaluate their surgical eligibility,sparing invasive methods.
