Virus-associated trichodysplasia spinulosa

This study tested a new way to do lung cancer surgery without using a breathing tube or ventilator. Instead, patients breathe on their own during the operation. The goal was to see if this 'tubeless' method causes less lung injury, helps patients recover faster, and reduces pollu…

This study looked at whether giving hospital-level care to acutely ill adults in their own homes in rural areas works well. 160 people with various conditions like infections, heart failure, or COPD took part. The goal was to see if this approach could lower costs and help patien…

This study looked at how well a new, quick finger-prick test (LumiraDx CRP) measures CRP levels compared to a standard lab test. CRP is a marker of infection, inflammation, or tissue injury. 79 adults with symptoms of these conditions took part. The goal was to see if the new tes…

This early study tested whether a special PET scan using a radioactive form of vitamin B9 (11C-PABA) can help doctors see infections deep inside the body. Researchers scanned 13 healthy people and patients with known or suspected infections. The goal was to see if this method can…

This study compared two types of nerve blocks (serratus anterior plane block and serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block) for pain after video-assisted lung surgery. 60 adults aged 18-65 were enrolled. Researchers measured pain levels and patient satisfaction to see w…

This study looked at how patients recover right after two different types of chest surgery: open surgery (thoracotomy) and keyhole surgery (VATS). Researchers measured fear of movement, pain, breathing difficulty, fatigue, and anxiety in 18 adults before they left the hospital. T…

This study looked at 60 adults having lung surgery (VATS) to see how three different anesthesia methods affect stress markers in the blood. The goal was to measure changes in oxidative stress, not to treat a disease. Results may help doctors choose the best anesthesia for future …

This study tested an artificial intelligence algorithm designed to help primary care doctors decide whether a patient with a skin condition really needs to see a dermatologist. Researchers enrolled 200 adults with skin problems and had their doctors take photos of the affected ar…

This study looked at 156 critically ill patients to find out what factors help achieve the right levels of beta-lactam antibiotics in the blood. Researchers collected clinical data and used therapeutic drug monitoring to see which patients reached target concentrations. The goal …

This completed trial with 66 participants compared two methods for marking small lung nodules before minimally invasive surgery: navigational bronchoscopy using a green dye (ICG) and CT-guided radioisotope injection. The goal was to see which method helps surgeons find and remove…
