The purpose of this study is to determine whether transcranial cathodal direct current stimulation (tDCS) delivered over the cerebellum can improve essential tremor.

Principal objective : Validation of a handy biochemical parameter, plasma concentration of Asymmetric DimethylArginine (ADMA), based on a recognize biochemical parameter, the dilation of the brachial artery, at ultrasound examination, after the deflation of a cushion to evaluate …

The combined measurement of Ab42 and tau protein (total and phosphorylated) in the spinal fluid has been shown to be promising in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and has justified its inclusion new diagnostic criteria. However, it can sometimes yield discordant results…

Rationale: Haemophilia is a rare disease; to improve knowledge international collaboration is needed. Well-defined clinical data will be collected from complete cohorts in order to prevent selection bias. Objective: To collect data on bleeding during neonatal period, endogenou…

Biomedical devices, such as artificial joints and pacemakers, are accepted and commonly used in medicine. While great progress in biomedical devices has been made for many other disorders, there is currently no device available to assist with the act of deglutition. The investiga…

RED is a retrospective and prospective registry, finalized for care and research purposes. It is articulated in main sections - strongly related and mutually dependent on each other - corresponding to different data domains: personal information, clinical data, genetic data, gene…

This prospective study aimed to validate a new prognostic approach of endothelial progenitor cells associated biomarkers in patients with acute coronary syndromes . Recruitment is made prospectively by two centers of Inter -region South Mediterranean,

Current methods for the quantification of muscle mass are indirect, lack precision, and often rely on expensive equipment that only provides limited (indirect) data on whole body muscle mass. Dual energy X ray absorptiometry has emerged as a potential precise measure of lean mass…

This retrospective study aims at evaluating the outcomes of gastrointestinal stromal tumor after surgery.

The My Retina Tracker® Registry is sponsored by the Foundation Fighting Blindness and is for people affected by one of the rare inherited retinal degenerative diseases studied by the Foundation. It is a patient-initiated registry accessible via a secure on-line portal at www.MyRe…

Breast milk is the gold standard of early infant nutrition and breastfed infants have advantages in several short and long term outcomes compared to those formula-fed. The first aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of adding bovine lactoferrin to infant formula. The gener…

Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) are a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in high-risk patients, such as immunocompromised patients. Candida is currently the predominant fungal pathogen in these patient populations and is associated with significant morbidity and a high m…

The Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Prospective Outcomes (IPF-PRO) Registry started recruiting in 2014 with the objective of studying Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. In 2018, the registry expanded to include recruitment of participants with other chronic fibrosing interstitial lung …

Though the utility of NVM5 neuromonitoring by stimulating within the surgical site during XLIF has been demonstrated, it is hypothesized that more information may be gathered if a greater section of the motor neural pathway was monitored (i.e., stimulation above the surgical site…
