This study evaluated outcomes after revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using Achilles tendon allografts with a calcaneal bone block, with or without additional InternalBrace augmentation. Revision ACL reconstruction is often more complex than primary ACL reconstru…

In previous studies exploring specific sequences of MRI (susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) and arterial spin labeling (ASL)), the investigators have shown the great sensibility of these MRI sequences to detect arteriovenous shunts, compared to angiography imaging (static or d…

Patients with advanced chronic liver diseases treated at the Vienna General Hospital of the Medical University of Vienna will be offered to participate in this prospective observational trial - including an optional participation in a biobank. Clinical parameters and laboratory …

Patients with marginal physiologic reserve, severe frailty, and/or malnutrition may be regarded as unsuitable candidates for advanced cardiac replacement therapies. However, little data exist on precisely which measures are predictive of subsequent adverse events. Assessment of n…

This will be a randomized, controlled pilot trial of patients with histological documentation of primary colon or rectal adenocarcinoma with resectable cancer, who have not received any treatments for cancer. If patient is a candidate for surgical resection, with no planned neoad…

Patients with autonomic failure are characterized by disabling orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure on standing), and at least half of them also have high blood pressure while lying down (supine hypertension). Exposure to heat, such as in hot environments, often worsens th…

The goal of this observational study is to optimize the management of severe childhood malaria, based on understanding and controlling the severity factors of the disease in Congolese children aged 2 to 9 years (the age group at risk of developing various severe forms of malaria)…

The objective of this project is to develop a Neurogenetics patient database and bio repository - which includes clinical information regarding history, physical examination, laboratory testing including genetic testing (NextGen sequencing including whole exome and whole genome s…

The main objective of this study is to describe the pharmacokinetics of the prescribed echinocandins for septic shock with secondary peritonitis for which intra-abdominal fungal infection is suspected or proven.

The purpose of this project is to validate a quick, easy-to-use and administer smartphone flicker fusion test. The app (called eyeFusion) can potentially be used to easily and quickly collect critical flicker fusion measurements on patients admitted with optic disorders as part o…

Background: Gastric cancers are cancers of the stomach. Hereditary ones are passed from parent to child. Researchers want to gather data about hereditary gastric cancers. They want to learn about changes these cause in the body and about the genes involved. Objective: -To gath…

Most clinical major depression responds to standard treatments (medication and psychotherapy); however, a significant subset of depressed patients (15-20%) do not respond to these treatments and are referred to as treatment-resistant major depression (TRMD). New treatments for TR…

The aim of this pilot study is to establish the success rate of catheterization of the lower jugular vein and the subclavian vein under ultrasound guidance in real time. The purpose is to compare the two techniques and to determine the best design for a full study (superiority, n…

Active phase of the second stage of labor corresponds to period of maternal expulsive efforts (i.e. pushing). An intensive management of this phase is usual in France. This study aims to evaluate the impact of an alternative "moderate" management during this pushing phase on neon…
