This study tests whether adding occasional deep sighs to standard breathing machine settings can reduce serious lung complications in the week after heart surgery. About 686 adults having planned heart surgery will be randomly assigned to either the sigh strategy or usual care. T…

This study compares a newer, more detailed CT scan (spectral CT) with a standard CT scan to see which one better finds any leftover cancer after a liver tumor treatment called TACE. About 250 adults with liver cancer will get both scans after their TACE procedure. The goal is to …

This study compares a new sedative called ciprofol to the standard drug propofol in 366 ICU patients who need a breathing tube. The goal is to see if ciprofol can sedate patients just as well but with fewer episodes of dangerously low blood pressure. Participants will be randomly…

This study tests whether adding electroacupuncture at a specific point (Zusanli, ST-36) to standard diabetes care can improve wound healing in people with diabetic foot ulcers. About 76 adults with mild to moderate ulcers will either get standard care alone or standard care plus …

This study looks at how adjusting breathing machine settings based on individual lung scans can improve oxygen delivery in patients with moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Researchers will use a special imaging technique to measure how well air and blo…

This study looks at how changing the angle of the bed (trunk inclination) affects lung function in 40 adults with moderate to severe ARDS, a serious lung condition. Researchers will measure lung pressure and use imaging to see how different positions and ventilator settings work …

This study looks at whether tiny DNA fragments released from damaged skin cells into the blood can help measure eczema severity. Researchers will compare blood and skin samples from 80 adults with eczema and healthy volunteers. The goal is to see if these DNA fragments trigger im…
