Spinal anesthesia for cesarean section is associated with a high incidence of low blood pressure. However, the pathophysiology of this arterial hypotension is not unequivocal and could involve, in addition to drug vasoplegia, a mechanical cause linked to lower caval compression o…

This clinical trial aims to develop a new care delivery model, called BeWell360-Care Giver (CG), to support caregivers of patients living with lung cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). The …

Resistance to treatment is one of the major themes in cancer research. Despite this, the definition and clinical implications of resistance to treatment remain under-explored, and patient-physician communication in this context still constitutes a challenge. When resistance to ca…

In France, only the fasting blood glucose (FBG) measurement is recommended for diabetes screening. Ethnic heterogeneity and genetic polymorphisms specific to the Afro-Caribbean and Indo-Caribbean population in Guadeloupe justify the interest to early screen type 2 diabetes mellit…

This is an observational data registry study of pediatric cancer patients at participating Beat Childhood Cancer Consortium sites involving specimen banking and data collection.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether potentiating the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) with QBW251 in patients with bronchiectasis will demonstrate clinical safety and efficacy related to improved mucociliary clearance with reduced bacterial…

The investigator's pre-preliminary study showed that the urine from a portion of study participants had anti-adhesion activity. The investigators propose that UTI susceptible women can be divided into responders and non-responders depending on whether cranberry intake increases a…

1. Background The purpose of this study is to describe the profile of patients with BRAF-mutated melanoma treated with BRAF/MEK inhibitors combination and using the Tavie Skin application. TavieSkin app, a digital solution developped by Pierre Fabre, is dedicated to all BRAF-…

Background: Prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV) exposes patients to increased risk of infection and mortality. A weaning protocol (WP) reduces the duration of MV. However, these protocols remain complicated to implement in clinical practice. These considerations led to the deve…

Background Cystic echinococcosis (hydatid cyst) is a significant zoonotic disease endemic to Iraq. Understanding the localized clinical and epidemiological trends is vital for improving surgical outcomes and public health strategies. Objective To determine the epidemiological an…

The purpose of this study is to find out whether using noninvasive methods to study the appearance of lesions can improve diagnostic accuracy before a biopsy is required and help guide treatment planning. The database created to store these images is called an Image Repository, a…

One third of individuals aged \>60 years will be diagnosed with at least one renal cyst following abdominal imaging. These cystic lesions are categorized according to the Bosniak classification which categorizes cysts according to their degree of complexity and risk of malignancy…

Postoperative delirium is an acute syndrome of mental deterioration characterized by acute onset and fluctuating course during the day. Very frequent delirium is a presage of other serious comorbidities i.e.: sepsis, acute kidney injury, circulatory and/or respiratory failure. A …

Mental health problems frequently complicate recovery from mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) but are under-recognized and under-treated. Our research program aims to identify evidence-based strategies for closing this knowledge-practice gap. Building on a successful pilot trial,…

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a debilitating condition involving excessive and uncontrollable worry and anxiety. Difficulty tolerating the uncertainties of life, known as intolerance of uncertainty (IU), has been shown to be key in the development and maintenance of GAD s…

This is a combination of retrospective and prospective observational study that will be performed across NCG and other participating centers to report compliance to chemoradiation for cervical cancer. This audit will include patients treated with standard of care treatment, in th…

Beyond EV-B, there are clinical observations to implicate other viruses in birth defects, including CHD. Since the Rubella epidemic of 1960s', however, viruses have received little attention and certainly no comprehensive study, especially using next generation sequencing (NGS), …

Accurate prediction of postoperative morbidity and mortality is essential for optimizing perioperative management in patients undergoing gastrointestinal cancer surgery. This study evaluates the predictive performance of commonly used perioperative risk scoring systems in patient…

A high percentage of women are either overweight or obese before pregnancy and many women are exceeding the gestational weight gain recommendations when pregnant. Excessive gestational weight gain increases the risk of maternal and fetal complications. To help with this, women ne…

This study aims to evaluate the comparative risk of dementia/Alzheimer's disease onset between patients treated with medications that target specific metabolic pathways and patients treated with alternative medications for the same indication.
