Technological advances have influenced the approach to implant treatment. One of the fields presently experiencing rapid development is static computer-assisted guided surgery (sCAIS), which allows transfer of the virtual implant planning to the mouth of the patient, based on the…

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if using advanced magnetic resonance imaging (AMRI) will improve the targeting of brain tumor needle biopsies compared to the standard targeting techniques. Researchers also want to learn how the results of the images and biops…

There is currently no good description of patients surviving an episode of acute hypercapnic respiratory failure in the ICU. For instance, the prevalence of OSA and sleep hypoventilation in a stable clinical condition is not known in this population. This prospective cohort desc…

The purpose of this study is to determine whether there are reasons other than medical reasons that could limit access to liver transplantation in alcoholic patients.

The Gastric bypass (GBP) is actually one of the most performed bariatric procedures worldwide. Short term results report 67% of mean Excess Weight Loss (EWL) at 2 years, and 58% EWL at 5 years. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) which is a restrictive procedure has gained in popularity beca…

The aim of this study is to show if the six-minute stepper test (ST6) is a sensible marker of exercise tolerance evolution during a pulmonary rehabilitation program in people with all stages of severity of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

In human, 2% of couples experimented Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). Currently, while etiological investigations were performed, 40 to 50 % of RPL were unexplained. In animals' studies, several studies have underlined the importance of sperm quality for a normal embryo developmen…

Children are admitted in intermediate units when the severity requires continuous monitoring. In France, Resources allocated to intermediate units are determined from lists of diagnoses and associated acts to additional budget. A score to assess the severity of illness may be ass…

It is now acknowledged that Alzheimer's disease is characterized by a long period of pathophysiological change. Developing new strategies to achieve diagnoses as early as possible has become a major goal for therapies aimed at slowing the progression of this disease. While diagno…

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are present in the circulation of cancer patients, and are recruited to the stroma of both the primary tumor and metastasis. Recent preclinical research has shown that in response to platinum-based chemotherapy, MSCs secrete two specific platinum-ind…

The Charcot syndrome Marie Tooth is the most frequent hereditary neuromuscular diseases: there is no curative treatment at present, on the other hand precautionary measures can be taken (physiotherapy, port of splints, orthopaedic surgery and technical assistants). In the literat…

Our project, established through collaboration between clinicians (Oscar Lambret Center-University Hospital) and scientists (IBL), aims to evaluate the expression of Met fragments in the lung cancer (LC). Unlike previous studies on Met by sequencing, in situ hybridization or immu…

To evaluate the safety and feasibility of reducing human sebum production using the ZELTIQ System.

The goal of the first part of this clinical research study is to learn how to deliver more accurate radiation treatment of tumors in the spine. Researchers also want to learn how internal organs might move during radiation treatment. The goal of the second part of this study is …

Observational, non randomized study aimed at measuring the circadian rhythms in the urinary concentrations of physiological modified nucleosides in 30 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer and in 30 age and sex-matched healthy subjects.

The WITAVI study was designed to explore the kinetic and associated outcome of Von Willebrand Factor-multimerizaton defects associated with devices in cardiovascular diseases.

The VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL; NCT 01169259) is a randomized clinical trial in 25,871 U.S. men and women investigating whether taking daily dietary supplements of vitamin D3 (2000 IU) or fish oil (1 gram of omega-3 fatty acids) reduces the risk of developing cancer, hear…

This project will be a multi-center, prospective longitudinal cohort for all patients undergoing primary shoulder instability surgery, excluding isolated SLAP repairs. We will be looking for risk factors for recurrent instability, revision surgery, and poor outcomes. Patients wil…

Root canal therapy will ideally eliminate post-endodontic pain but occasionally analgesics are needed to diminish the pain \[Owatz et al 2007\]. Development of pain after completion of root canal treatment may undermine patients' confidence in the procedure and the clinician \[Al…

The purpose of the biobank is to enable future genomic based research on this Head and Neck Cancer patient population. The investigators will try to identify tumor factors that will predict cancer-related outcome in order to improve the outcome prediction after treatment in a pat…
