This study looks at whether sewing shut a specific incision site (the epigastric trocar) during sleeve gastrectomy can prevent hernias from forming later. People having their first sleeve gastrectomy for obesity are included, while those with prior stomach banding or repeat sleev…

This study aimed to see if blocking blood vessels to part of the stomach (bariatric embolization) could help super obese patients lose weight before sleeve gastrectomy surgery, potentially lowering surgical risks. It planned to enroll patients with a BMI over 50 and at least thre…

This study tests if inhaling a protein called interferon beta 1b can help hospitalized COVID-19 patients who need oxygen. The goal is to see if the treatment reduces the amount of oxygen they need over 15 days. The study includes 74 adults with confirmed COVID-19 who are on oxyge…

This study tests a new way to manage medications for older adults who take many drugs. The goal is to reduce harmful side effects by improving how doctors, pharmacists, and hospitals work together. About 1,500 elderly patients in France will take part.

This study explores whether injecting a small amount of agitated saline (salt water mixed with air bubbles) during an ultrasound of the heart can accurately measure how much blood the heart pumps. The method aims to be simpler and less dependent on the operator's skill than curre…

This study planned to see if giving dexamethasone during anesthesia could prevent respiratory complications after scheduled lung surgery. Researchers wanted to compare patients who received the drug with those who did not. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any par…

This study planned to test whether a nerve block in the cheek area could reduce the need for morphine after cleft palate repair in children aged 5 months to 12 years. The experimental group would have received the nerve block, while the control group would not. However, the study…

This study tests whether virtual reality (VR) reminiscence therapy can reduce behavioral problems and improve quality of life in 50 nursing home residents with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. Participants will use VR to explore familiar heritage sites, aiming to trigger pos…

This study tests a device called MILTA, which uses light and magnetic fields, to reduce pain from perineal scars after childbirth. About 110 women with moderate to severe pain will receive either MILTA or a placebo treatment in two sessions. The goal is to see if this non-drug ap…

This study tests a specially designed garment for elderly dementia patients who have incontinence and often remove their protective pads. The goal is to see if a more dignified, comfortable garment can improve satisfaction for patients and caregivers. Forty participants will be r…

This study uses a special bronchoscopy technique called narrow band imaging to look at blood vessel patterns in the airways of people with COVID-19. Researchers will compare images from three groups: patients with COVID-19, patients with other lung infections, and patients with l…

This study looks at how COVID-19 impacts people with hepatocellular carcinoma, a type of liver cancer. Researchers will track infection rates and see how the virus affects liver function, cancer treatment, and overall health. About 23 participants from a French national liver can…

This study examines tissue samples from patients who developed graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant. Researchers use a technology called nCounter to measure the activity of 800 immune-related genes in these samples. The goal is to identify a unique molecu…

This study looked at over 1,100 adults who had heart surgery to create a tool that predicts a serious complication called vasoplegic syndrome. This condition causes dangerously low blood pressure that doesn't respond to usual treatments. The goal is to help doctors identify high-…

This study follows 98 elderly residents in French nursing homes to see how long their COVID-19 antibodies last. Researchers will also measure immune markers linked to aging to understand why some older people have weaker immune responses. The goal is to learn how to better protec…

This study aimed to see if measuring the respiratory quotient (a breathing-based measure of energy use) during laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery could help predict complications. The trial was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.

This study investigates whether patients with pre-existing endothelial dysfunction (damage to the inner lining of blood vessels) are more likely to develop vasoplegia (a dangerous drop in blood pressure) after cardiac surgery using a heart-lung machine. Researchers will measure v…

This pilot study aimed to see if giving a logbook to patients hospitalized for a stem cell transplant could help reduce feelings of isolation and psychological stress. The study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available. It was planned at the Un…

This study tracked 81 critically ill COVID-19 patients admitted to a French intensive care unit. Researchers compared factors like age, medical history, and treatments to understand who becomes severely ill. The goal is to improve care for future patients.

This study aimed to compare how well people could walk after two different hip replacement surgeries: one through the front (direct anterior) and one through the back (posterior). It planned to include adults over 50 with hip arthritis. However, the study was withdrawn before enr…

This study uses motion capture technology to precisely measure how the skin around the eyes moves and changes with age. Researchers will compare 60 healthy women in two age groups (18-33 and 50-65) to understand skin dynamics during facial expressions and jumps. The goal is to va…

This study looks at the physical forces on doctors' muscles while they perform endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), a long procedure to remove early-stage digestive cancers. Researchers will measure muscle angles in 10 gastroenterologists during ESD to understand why many endo…

This study was designed to look back at medical records of people in Picardy, France, who were diagnosed with both lymphoma and another cancer within six months between 2007 and 2012. The goal was to see if these cases were more common than expected and to describe patient charac…

This study measures how well certain antibiotics penetrate the lungs in patients with pneumonia. Researchers will compare antibiotic levels in the blood and in lung fluid from 101 adults who need a bronchoscopy. The goal is to find factors that predict good lung penetration, whic…

This study looks at whether the dose of sufentanil, a strong painkiller given during non-major abdominal surgery, is linked to chronic pain 3 months after the operation. Researchers will interview 855 patients by phone to check for pain and its severity. The goal is to identify a…

This study compares a new, faster MRI technique (diffusion-weighted) to the standard MRI for monitoring Crohn's disease. The new method does not require a contrast injection or bowel cleansing, which patients often dislike. Researchers will check if the new scan is just as good a…

This study was designed to see if transporting biological samples by drone affects the accuracy of lab tests. Researchers planned to compare test results from samples flown by drone versus those transported normally. The study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, …
