Clinical and experimental data suggest that neutrophil activation and extravasation are deleterious in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) involving an increased risk of unfavorable outcome and hemorrhagic transformation (HT). However, clinical trials targeting neutrophil recruitment in …

Despite advances in medicine, secondary neonatal infection remains a continuing concern because of the associated high morbidity and mortality. The usual mechanism of infection responds to the transmission of germs by the equipment used for care (eg, catheters) and by the hands o…

In this research study the investigators want to learn more about whether using a fitness tracker and accelerometer helps patients with cystic fibrosis exercise more regularly, and in turn whether it increases exercise tolerance over the period of one year.

This observational study evaluated a structured mindfulness-based psychoeducation program focused on emotional awareness, forgiveness, and self-awareness to reduce anxiety and support recovery from substance use in adults. Participants completed the program to assess its feasibil…

Today there are few studies in the literature involving patients in an ICU following major visceral surgery. There are thus few results about the prognostic value of pulmonary extravascular water in this population of patients, but also the prognostic value of pulmonary extravasc…

In this study the investigators will incorporate a wide range of clinical variables associated with aging and cardiovascular disease to determine whether they are associated with mutation status independent of chronologic age. Clinically, aging can be operationalized using geriat…

The main objective of this study is to compare the intestinal microbiota in newly diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with that from individuals without RA. The first analysis will compare the proportion of filamentous bacteria in the intestinal microbiota between the two groups…
