Evaluation of the Cell Detachment Ratio on pH-responsive Chitosan as a Prognostic Factor in Lung Cancer
Biomaterial-based cell culture models have been gaining increasing attention as potential therapeutic strategies. The purpose of this project is to evaluate whether the cell detachment ratio on pH-responsive chitosan could be correlated with the overall survival in lung cancer patients. Through controllable cell-material interaction, this project has the intention to …
Extra Vascular Lung Water and Pulmonary Permeability in Critically Ill Patients With SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19)
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a syndromic definition of an acute lung injury with alteration of biomechanics (lower respiratory system compliance) mostly associated with increased lesional edema. Increase in Pulmonary Vascular Permeability Index (PVPI) accompanied with accumulation of excess Extravascular Lung Water (EVLW) is the hallmark of ARDS. In …
Impact of Sinus Surgery on Individuals With Cystic Fibrosis
This study will be a prospective, observational study of patients who undergo endoscopic sinus surgery for cystic fibrosis-related chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Individuals who do not undergo surgery but are treated medically for CRS will also be enrolled to serve as a control group. Outcomes analyzed will include pulmonary, quality of …
MPA AUC Monitoring in Patients Receiving MMF for Diffuse Cutaneous or Pulmonary Involvement in Systemic Sclerosis
To define a target value of AUC MPA to improve the modified Rodnan score and / or respiratory impairment (DLCO or FVC) at one year in patients receiving MMF for the treatment of diffuse cutaneous or interstitial lung damage of systemic sclerosis.
Outcome of Patients Treated With ECLS
Extracorporeal life support (ECLS), also called extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), is an extracorporeal technique of providing effective circulatory and (or) respiratory failure, with a growing number of critically ill patients benefit from it. The aim of this study is to investigate the outcome of patients treated With ECMO, and to …
Patient-Derived Xenografts to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities
This trial establishes patient-derived cancer xenografts in addressing cancer health and treatment disparities that disproportionately affect racial/ethnic minorities. Understanding the genetic and response differences among racial/ethnic minorities may help researchers enhance the precision of therapeutic treatments.
Imaging Feature of SARS-CoV2 Infection
The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV2 clinically presents with pneumonia, characterised by fever, cough, dyspnea. The severity of the disease varies widely with evidence of mild disease in the majority of confirmed cases, severe pneumonia-dyspnea, hypoxia or lung involvement at imaging within 24-48 hours- and critical disease with respiratory failure, shock or …
FAPI Imaging Predicts Adverse Cardiac Events in Chronic Total Occlusion
Prospective, observational, single-center cohort studyHypothesis Higher myocardial FAPI uptake in CTO patients predicts a greater incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within 12 months after PCI. FAPI PET/CT imaging is associated with plaque vulnerability features and may serve as a non-invasive marker for fibrotic activity and adverse cardiac remodeling.Inclusion …
PET-CT Predicting Segement Specific Lymph Nodes Metastasis
This study is a multicenter prospective clinical study that aims to evaluate the predictive value of preoperative PET-CT results (such as SUV uptake, size of tumor lymph nodes, and differences in FDG uptake compared to surrounding tissues) for lymph node metastasis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. During surgery, …
Heart Failure Monitoring With Eko Electronic Stethoscopes
This proof-of-concept study will evaluate the feasibility of the Eko DUO to measure signals relevant to heart failure (HF) decompensation, as well as the feasibility to develop an algorithm to model hemodynamic filling pressures in HF patients under active decompensation in a cardiac intensive care unit (CICU) or coronary care …
