Dystonia is a movement disorder characterized by involuntary, sustained, often repetitive muscle contractions of opposite muscles that lead to abnormal twisting movements or odd postures. Essential tremor is a slowly progressive neurologic disorder characterized by the appearance…

The objective of the antiretroviral treatment is to inhibit the viral replication, estimated(appreciated) by the measure of the viral plasmatic load(responsibility). In this inhibition of the viral replication usually joins an immune reconstruction \[ 1 \]. Nevertheless, a viro-i…

Rationale: To analyse the arterial state of women with thrombophilia by techniques studying micro and arterial macrocirculation because of a reported and still discussed increase risk in cardio-vascular events in these women. Primary objective: To measure endothelium dependent v…

Background: \- Researchers are interested in developing a registry protocol to obtain biologic and environmental samples anonymously from adult volunteers for use in laboratory tests and studies. The samples will be used to determine if new tests are sufficiently valid and preci…

In order to compare the early recurrence rates of pilonidal disease and overall patient satisfaction between procedures involving minimal and wide open excisions, we propose to perform a prospective, randomized clinical trial comparing these two surgical procedures. Randomly assi…
