Characterization of Novel Lipoprotein Properties Associated With an Increased Risk to Develop Atherosclerosis
Objectives of Medical Research: Separation of LDL and HDL from blood samples of patients with high LDL and / or low HDL who have developed atherosclerotic disease with similar patients who have no evidence of atherosclerosis. Lipidomics and proteomics will examine whether there is a difference in lipid and protein …
EXtremely Early-onset Type 1 Diabetes EXtremely Early-onset Type 1 Diabetes (A Musketeers' Memorandum Study)
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas by the body's own immune system (autoimmunity). It is not fully understood what causes this type of diabetes and why there is variation in age of onset and severity between people who develop the disease. The …
HFNC and NIV for COVID-19 Complicated by Respiratory Failure
Background: Patients with COVID-19 have a range of clinical spectrum from asymptomatic infection, mild illness, moderate infection requiring supplemental oxygen and severe infection requiring intensive care support. High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) may offer respiratory support to patients with COVID-19 complicated by acute hypoxemic …
A Study of Cognitive Changes in Patients Receiving Brain Radiation
Cranial radiation therapy (RT), commonly used to treat benign and malignant brain tumors, can lead to cognitive impairments in domains not related to neuroanatomic structures directly impacted by the tumor. The study will prospectively enroll 58 patients with benign and low-grade brain tumors who will undergo partial brain RT, with …
Layer-specific Contribution to Consolidation of Skill Learning in the Primary Motor Cortex
Background Training in a new motor skill often involves periods of active practice and periods of rest. During early motor skill learning, improvements in performance usually happen during the short rest periods between practice sessions. Researchers want to use improved imaging techniques to study the contributions of specific parts of …
Educational Follow-up in COPD Patients After Pulmonary Rehabilitation.
After pulmonary rehabilitation, the challenge is to maintain the benefits reached during the program and increase physical activity. As exercise training, education is the corner stone of pulmonary rehabilitation. Education allows to support behavioral changes in daily life. Recommendations about modalities for maintaining physical activity are still clear, however for …
Validation of Continuous Transcutaneous Carbon Dioxide Monitoring in VA-ECMO Patients
Carbon dioxide in patients on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is eliminated via respirator as well as via the oxygenator's membrane of the ECMO machine. Consequently, monitoring of end-tidal carbon dioxide tensions is limited, which can result in marked swings towards non-physiological values. Hyper- and hypocapnia, however, can have detrimental …
COVID-19 - Multicenter Study on Nosocomial Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 Virus
Infection with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus strain is associated with severe morbidity and mortality estimated today from 2% to 4%. Elderly patients or patients with serious chronic conditions justifying hospitalization are particularly at risk. The risk of infection with SARS-CoV-2 during hospitalization is also substantial and increased in fragile patients. Several …
Mindfulness and Shared Decision Making
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of mindfulness-based interventions on patient stress, patient-provider communication, and other measures of SDM at MDMC. There is a need to have a quantifiable measure of perceived stress and communication ability in patients. This is the first study of its kind …
DWIBS-MRI: An Adjunct to the Traditional Diagnostic Breast Imaging Evaluation
1.1. Primary Objectives To determine if MRI DWIBS can accurately identify suspicious lesions previously categorized on mammography and sonography as potentially malignant. We will also validate whether DWIBS-MRI ADC values can be used to accurately differentiate benign from malignant lesions. Additionally, because it is not known whether tumor type or …
