The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two drugs: paracetamol and ibuprofen in association with morphine, compared with morphine alone on analgesia in children seen in the emergency department for a long-bone fracture and also to study the potential syner…

This randomized controlled clinical trial aimed to compare postoperative outcames of conventional scalpel frenectomy and diode laser frenectomy with or without adjunctive photobiomodulation therapy. Postoperative pain, speech difficulty, chewing difficulty, analgesic consumption,…

The optimal heparin regimen during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has not been well established in obese patients. Results of a preview study show that the standard heparin management based on total body weight in obese patients during CPB resulted in excessive heparin level, whic…

The NCTT is a prospective, multicenter, observational research network for subjects with chronic spinal cord and/or chronic traumatic brain injury.

Post-stroke communication deficits (PSCD) are a common symptom of patients having sustained a stroke. These deficits include difficulty to produce or understand language, motor speech disorders and cognitive-communication disorders. It is estimated that approximately 40% of strok…

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease that affects a growing proportion of the population. There is currently no treatment to halt this process. The aim of the research is in particular to find treatments targeting the molecular origins of osteoarthritis focusing especially on…

Collection and review of clinical information related to glycogen branching enzyme (GBE) deficiency, diagnosed as Glycogen Storage Disease Type IV (GSD IV) or Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease (APBD generated during clinic visits.

For weight loss to occur, energy intake needs to be reduced to incur an energy deficit. One dietary strategy that may facilitate reducing energy intake and enhancing weight loss is consuming a diet low in dietary energy density (ED). The ED of a given food, defined as the ratio o…

Low Level Laser Therapy has been used for a few years in some pediatric hospital centers for chemo- and radiotherapy-induced oral mucositis care. It may promote ulceration's healing, limits mucositis severity and associated pain. As its use is recommended in the treatment of radi…

The proposed study is to validate a non-invasive imaging technique to evaluate the myocardial perfusion reserve in comparison with a validated invasive technique, the measure of coronary flow reserve (CRF) with thermodilution.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of two proximity control geometry lens designs to treat eyes with pretreatment myopia between -4.00 and -6.00 D myopia with and without refractive astigmatism in a modality involving overnight wearing.

The Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Registry (LAAO Registry™) is designed to assess the prevalence, demographics, management, and outcomes of patients undergoing percutaneous and epicardial based left atrial appendage occlusion procedures to reduce the risk of stroke. Patient-lev…

Background: Patients with testicular germ cell cancer (GCC) have a high cure rate, however impaired muscle function and fatigue are the most common complications among patients with GCC undergoing treatment with chemotherapy. Although exercise is widely recommended, information a…

The overarching goal of this study is to characterize the effects of ethanol and cannabinoids on simulated driving and related cognition.

The purpose of GLIOPLAK is to evaluate the predictive value of a biological test performed in the radio-chemotherapy phase in patients suffering from glioblastoma. The studied parameter is the variation in platelet count during the radio-chemotherapy phase. The main objective is …

Background: \- Contrast agents help things show up better on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Researchers want to see if the drug ferumoxytol is a good contrast agent. They want to determine that it does not cause prolonged MRI changes in the brain and to see if it helps …

The time-frame and the follow-up elements after embolization of brain arteriovenous malformations are not standardized. Therefore, few reliable follow-up data are available for these patients. This study aims at collecting standardized long term data for these patients.

The time-frame and the follow-up elements after embolization of brain aneurysm are not standardized. Therefore, few reliable follow-up data are available for these patients. This study aims at collecting standardized long term data for these patients, in order to assess the occu…

This trial studies molecular and immunohistochemical profiling of tumors in patients with parathyroid tumors. Studying molecular and immunohistochemical profiling of tumors may help doctors avoid inconsistencies in diagnosis, unnecessary or incomplete surgery, surgical morbidity,…

Bioelectrical impedance analysis measures body mass (the amount of muscle and fat in the body) and the level of hydration to help researchers identify patients who are losing muscle mass during radiation therapy. This information may help researchers make decisions about nutritio…
