This trial is comparing medical approaches for stroke prevention in people who have atrial fibrillation (AF) and have undergone a successful procedure called ablation to eliminate or substantially reduce the arrhythmia. AF is normally associated with an increased risk of stroke w…

To identify preoperative predictive factors for final ureteral section invasion after radical cystotomie (RC) and to validate significant factors on an external independent cohort. The investigators retrospectively reviewed data of all consecutive RC performed for bladder cancer …

The primary objective of this study is to estimate, in HCV genotype 1 or 4-infected patients who failed a prior DAA bitherapy with Sofosbuvir, the efficacy of a treatment with Grazoprevir/Elbasvir, Sofosbuvir and Ribavirin in the two treatment groups and compare the rate of susta…

This study examines how tumors in different metastatic organs respond to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICB) therapy in real-world clinical practice. ICB therapy helps the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells, but treatment responses may vary depending on where the cance…

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy in men and a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Over 1.4 million new cases of prostate cancer are estimated to occur worldwide each year, with more than 375,000 related deaths. High-risk PCa poses s…

The purpose of this study is to learn the environmental and psychological factors that impact suicidality in patients diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder. Additionally, the study aims to identify treatments to reduce the suicidal behavior and improve quality of life through a 6-week …
