The purpose of this study is to determine a relationship between a person's flora/bacteria in their gut (the intestinal microbiome) and their risk of cardiovascular disease. Investigators will look at inflammatory markers in the blood and also look at the genome of the bacteria i…

This project will conduct a retrospective clinical database review and a one-time research interview to evaluate outcomes among a sub-set of caregivers (CGs) who were enrolled in the Behavioral Health Laboratory (BHL) Caregiver Outreach and Telehealth Education Program (COTP). Th…

Anesthesia for emergency surgery is a situation at risk of pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents. It has been previously reported that bedside two-dimensional ultrasonography can be a useful tool for anesthesiologists to determine gastric contents and volume in adults and chil…

This is a prospective, single-center, pilot, cohort study. The first phase of this study is observational and the usual care of patients is maintained during the ICU stay, except for an interview with a psychologist preceding patient discharge. A phone interview at 2 months and a…

After an allergen challenge, the allergic inflammatory response disappears spontaneously. The initiation of the resolution of the inflammatory response is now recognized as a dynamic process, involving active biochemical programs that enable inflamed tissues to return to homeosta…

Cardiovascular complications of NSAIDs, selective for inhibition of COX-2, stimulated interest in microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) as an alternative drug target. Global deletion of mPGES-1 in mice suppresses PGE2 and augments PGI2 by PGH2 substrate rediversion. Unl…

The primary study objective is to measure the electrical fields evoked by tDCS using subjects who have implanted intracranial electrodes as part of their evaluation for epilepsy surgery. The measurements obtained in these subjects and their brain MRI will be employed to validate …

The investigators propose to create a database at the regional level, the principle is to include all patients in whom a mutation was detected from a single platform (Lille). The creation of this regional cohort, smaller than the national cohort of Biomarkers France, will perform…

The TVT Registry™ is a benchmarking tool developed to track patient safety and real-world outcomes related to the transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) procedure. Created by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC), the TVT Registry i…

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of Botox® (Onabotulinum Toxin A) versus Xeomin® (incobotulinum toxin A) for the treatment of forehead and glabellar (vertical lines between the eyebrows) wrinkles.

The growing incidence of cancer associated to an aging population represents an epidemiologic reality that requires questioning access to care and prognosis in elderly with cancer, for which disparities have been highlighted. However, generally speaking, studies are limited in th…

The researchers are trying to identify molecular mechanisms that control growth plate mediated limb growth and identify agents that can be used to enhance or slow growth.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether photography-based, smartphone exercises can increase well-being and reduce depressive symptoms in college and graduate students. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can savoring and/or social sharing of positive experience…

The purpose of this study is to collect data to help researchers identify factors that prevent certain individuals from receiving the beneficial effects of exercise.

This data collection project is intended to provide clinical outcomes data to engineering, marketing as well as fulfill the post market surveillance requirements of various regulatory authorities. The study will be a prospective and one-arm.

This is an open-label, non-randomized study. The purpose of this study is to better understand how vaccines against typhoid fever affect the normal immune system and bacteria in the intestine. Patients having standard-of-care colonoscopies will be divided into 3 groups: Group 1:…

Type 2 Diabetes (TD2) is the leading cause of new cases of preventable blindness in these countries (and the gold-standard treatment, laser photocoagulation has proven to be effective in preventing vision loss at the end stage of eye disease due to proliferative diabetic retinopa…

MicroRNAs (miRNA) are molecular biomarkers that post-transcriptionally control target genes. Deregulated miRNA expression has been observed in diverse cancers. In high grade gliomas, known as glioblastomas, the investigators have identified an oncogenic miRNA, miRNA-10b (mir-10b)…

We used a small randomized controlled trial (n=36) to compare a Mobile Health Pain Coping Skills (mPCST) to Usual Treatment for patients having received hematopoietic stem cell transplant.

Despite intermittent control of tracheal cuff pressure using a manual manometer, cuff underinflations and overinflations frequently occur in critically ill patients, resulting in increased risk for microaspiration and tracheal ischemic lesions. The aim of this study is to determi…
