Background: \- Anemia occurs commonly and is associated with poor outcomes in the elderly. In about a third of anemia cases in older people (over age 65), the cause of anemia is unexplained. Anemia in older adults may be caused by the bone marrow's inability to produce red blood…

Neuronal activity in circuits between the basal ganglia (BG) and motor cortical areas is abnormally synchronised and rhythmic. The oscillatory activity prevails at 8-30 Hz in untreated Parkinson's Disease (PD) and its amplitude at both subthalamic and cortical levels inversely co…

Background: \- Some nerve and muscle disorders that start early in life (before age 25), like some forms of muscular dystrophy, can run in families. However, the genetic causes of these disorders are not known. Also, doctors do not fully understand how symptoms of these disorder…

Background: * Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a virus that causes respiratory tract infections, and is frequently responsible for hospital visits in infants and children. It can also trigger severe breathing problems for individuals who have asthma, but these infectio…

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic disease of genetic origin. This is a rare disease (incidence 1 / 16000 births) which is the subject of a systematic neonatal screening in France, because it is treatable by a diet low in phenylalanine. This plan is required upon confirmation o…

The purpose of the study is to evaluate efficacy of a 14 months follow-up and individual medical care of electro-sensitive patients: by measurement of health status, sensitivity to electromagnetic fields exposures, and quality of life.

The investigators' primary objective is to study prevalences of myocardial iron overload, defined as a cardiac T2\*\< 20 ms, in 3 populations of multiply transfused patients, affected with thalassemia, sickle cell disease, and myelodysplasia.

The purpose of this study is to compare adherence to antiretroviral therapy during pregnancy and postpartum, and to record adherence barriers and facilitators.

Background: \- The endothelium is the inner lining of blood vessels. The cells in this lining help regulate blood flow and immune system function. Problems with endothelial cells can contribute to heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Certain genes or parts of genes …

Physician Clinical Trial Policy (CTP) to evaluate the efficacy treatment of lower extremity pathologies derived from neurological ischemia disorders using the combination of Monochromatic Infrared Photo Energy (MIRE) and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) therapie…

The objective of this study is to use a DEK ELISA to quantitatively measure DEK protein in the urine of patients suspected of having bladder cancer. The measurement of urine DEK protein, relative to an established cut-off, is correlated with the presence or absence of bladder can…

The primary objective of the DALI study is to compare antibiotic concentrations in patient blood samples with bacteriological objectives associated with maximum bactericidal activity. The antibiotics studied are certain lactams and glycopeptides.

This clinical trial is an experimental research study using a potential new form of birth control. Clinical trials include people who volunteer to take part in a study. Take your time to decide if you want to be part of this experimental research study. If you want to know more a…

The association between radiation exposure and cardiac disease is well recognized, it is not fully understood if there exists an optimal or "safe" radiation dose-volume relationship.

Stroke can lead to long-term impairment of upper-limb function, particularly in the chronic phase, where recovery is often limited. Brain-computer interface (BCI) systems combined with motor imagery (MI) are emerging as promising neurorehabilitation approaches. Providing real-tim…

It is a study of basic research with mechanistically objectives and including clinical biological samples.

This research study is designed to look at the involvement of the glutamate system in depression. Each subject will undergo a screening appointment to determine study eligibility. Thereafter, the study will take 2 or 3 visits depending on schedule availability and will consist of…

Cisplatin and ifosfamide are commonly used drugs in chemotherapy. They are known to involve renal toxic threats in children given their immature kidney. This toxicity is increased especially after nephrectomy and/or concomitant radiotherapy. In pediatric oncology, the available e…

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of the global approach to the pain in cystic fibrosis patients with chronic or intermittent pain. The patients will receive in addition to an usual pharmacological and psychological management, sophrology sessions at home. The r…

The objective is to determine whether nebivolol, a beta-blockade drug, can prevent the development of heart disease in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy aged 10 to 15 year-old.
