Effect of Pre-existing Adjacent Segment Degeneration on Long-term Effectiveness After Lumbar Fusion Surgery
This is a prospective single-center study. Patients requiring posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) for lumbar degenerative disease are prospectively enrolled and followed. Important adjacent pre-existing degeneration factors include discs degenerated, facets and ligamentum flavum tropism which could lead to spinal canal stenosis (SCS). This study will focus on the effects …
Prevalence of Thiamine Deficiency in Hospitalized Non-Alcoholic Veterans
Thiamine micronutrient deficiency (TD) can cause a variety of non-specific symptoms and leads to several thiamine deficiency disorders such as heart failure, polyneuropathy, Wernicke's Encephalopathy and generalized weakness and debility. Symptoms are often vague and non-specific such as fatigue, leg swelling, imbalance, confusion, mood disorders, gastrointestinal upset, and weakness. Hospitalized …
Long-term Safety and Efficacy of a Modified Suprachoroidal Silicone Tube (SST) Shunt
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of a modified suprachoroidal silicone tube (SST) shunt in treating patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudo-exfoliative glaucoma (PXG). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the SST shunt maintain intraocular pressure (IOP) …
myoActivation for Chronic Pain in a Marginalized Population
Marginalized populations are at increased risk of chronic pain, trauma and use of street drugs to manage this suffering, with the associated risk of overdoses. Non-pharmacological options to manage chronic pain are difficult for this population to access. myoActivation is an innovative structured assessment and therapeutic approach. This study will …
Novel Molecular Spectrometric Biomarkers in Blood Plasma as an Early Diagnostic Tool in HCC
Due to providing valuable clinical information while being minimally invasive, blood-based testing will most likely be a prerequisite for future large-scale screening of high-risk populations. As a variety of pathological processes, including carcinogenesis, may cause changes in both the concentration and the structure and spatial arrangement of body biomolecules, the …
Clinical Manifestations and Biomarkers in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Type 4 and Other Inherited Neurological Disorders of RNA Processing
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 4 (ALS4) is an inherited motor neuron disease. People with ALS4 have a change in the amount of RNA and DNA that bind together. This binding of RNA with DNA forms units called R-loops. Researchers want to learn how R-loops are related to ALS4. To …
Monitoring of Metabolic Adverse Events of Second Generation Antipsychotics in a Naive Pediatric Population
Introduction: Second Generation Antipsychotics (SGAs) are widely used in the pediatric population. It is currently established that SGAs may induce undesirable metabolic adverse events (AEs) such as weight gain, metabolic changes in blood lipids or glucose with risk of potential cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The Canadian Alliance for Monitoring Effectiveness …
Microbiota in COVID-19 Patients for Future Therapeutic and Preventive Approaches
In light of the rapidly emerging pandemic of SARS-CoV-2 infections, the global population and health care systems are facing unprecedented challenges through the combination of transmission and the potential for severe disease. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been found with unusual clinical features dominated by substantial alveolar fluid load. …
New Time Clock for ST-elevation MI Based on Biochemical Myocardial Infarction Onset Time
ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is one of the leading causes of death across the world and immediate treatment with either thrombolytics or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) results in lower mortality. It is essential to accurately determine the time of onset of myocardial infarction. Standard practice is to take …
