Group of patients with aged 20-40 years undergoing planned neurological work-up including a lumbar puncture (LP). The group will include 40 subjects with and 40 subjects without PDPH.
Increasing protein and energy intake above the anabolic capacity of a given individual may result in increased lipogenesis and excessive fat deposition. Adults with reduced mobility or with neuromuscular conditions will develop excessive fat deposition if they receive normal to high protein and energy intakes. Excessive fat deposition have been demonstrated in preterm infants receiving high energy intakes. Given that physical activity in preterms is often reduced for the prematurity itself, the associated sickness and the numerous medications, the investigators speculate that physical stimulation may have a beneficial effect on protein accretion and on lean mass accretion. The investigators further hypothesize that today's recommended daily intakes of proteins and energy cannot be fully incorporated into lean body mass without a concomitant physical activity. In spite of the fact that this notion is well accepted in adult physiology and in the elderly, it has never been tested in preterm infants.

This factorial randomised controlled trial will evaluate the effect of increasing amino acid intake (by 1 g/kg/d) and energy intake (by 20 kcal/kg/d) during parenteral nutrition and also of increasing protein intake and energy intake by an extra 1 g/kg/d during enteral nutrition, with and without the stimulation of the infant's physical activity, on growth of extremely low birth weight infants. The investigators aim at demonstrating that increasing energy and protein intake above the standard of care intakes will result in better growth only in association with adequate physical activity, in particular in relation to body composition and lean mass accretion.
BACKGROUND: Almost 80% of individuals with functional dyspepsia experience meal-related symptoms and are diagnosed with postprandial distress syndrome (PDS). However, studies evaluating dietary modifications in PDS are sparse. We performed a single-center randomized trial comparing reassurance and diagnostic explanation (RADE) with or without traditional dietary advice (TDA) in PDS.
METHODS: Following a normal upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, individuals with PDS were randomized to a leaflet providing RADE ± TDA; the latter recommending small, regular meals and reducing the intake of caffeine/alcohol/fizzy drinks and high-fat/processed/spicy foods. Questionnaires were completed over 4 weeks, including self-reported adequate relief of dyspeptic symptoms, and the validated Leuven Postprandial Distress Scale (LPDS), Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale, and Nepean Dyspepsia Index for quality of life. The primary endpoint(s) to define clinical response were (i) ≥50% adequate relief of dyspeptic symptoms and (ii) >0.5-point reduction in the PDS subscale of the LPDS (calculated as the mean scores for early satiety, postprandial fullness, and upper abdominal bloating).
KEY RESULTS: Of the 53 patients with PDS, 27 were assigned RADE-alone and 26 to additional TDA. Baseline characteristics were similar between groups, with a mean age of 39 years, 70% female, 83% white British, and coexistent irritable bowel syndrome in 66%. The primary endpoints of (i) adequate relief of dyspeptic symptoms were met by 33% (n = 9) assigned RADE-alone versus 39% (n = 10) with TDA; p-value = 0.70, while (ii) a reduction of >0.5 points in the PDS subscale was met by 37% (n = 10) assigned RADE-alone versus 27% (n = 7) with TDA; p-value = 0.43. Response rates did not differ according to irritable bowel syndrome status. There were no significant between-group changes in the gastrointestinal symptom rating scale and dyspepsia quality of life.
CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES: This study of predominantly white British patients with PDS found the addition of TDA did not lead to significantly greater symptom reduction compared with RADE alone. Alternate dietary strategies should be explored in this cohort.
Subjects between the ages of 20-65 years of age, with diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes mellitus or impaired fasting glucose. Subjects will undergo caloric restriction alone to mimic weight loss seen after gastric bypass surgery.
This is a prospective monocentric collection of biological samples combined with clinical and paraclinical data from patients suffering from allergic diseases, asthma or mast cell disorders. The aim of this collection is to collect biological samples and clinical data to be used for various exploratory, diagnostic and/or prospective and/or predictive studies.

The samples and data will be pseudonymised, i.e. identified by the first letter of the patient's surname and first name and by a number allocated in chronological order of patient inclusion, and will be stored in a bank. The samples and data making up this clinico-biological bank will be used for subsequent exploratory work used as a priority to answer questions from the Toulouse University Hospital teams in the field of allergic diseases, asthma and/or mast cell disorders, in accordance with the information given to the patient. They may also be transferred to specialised research teams as part of national or international collaborations, or sold to academic or industrial partners. These transfers as part of collaborations or assignments will be legally governed by contracts guaranteeing compliance with the RGPD, where applicable, and the use of these samples in accordance with current legislation and the information provided to patients.
Subjects will take an 8.9 mg dose (two 4.45 mg pills) of pitolisant once per day on day 1 through 4. On day 5, 8.9 mg will be taken in front of staff prior to an alcohol self administration trial.
Administer ASMANEX HFA as two inhalations twice daily every day (morning and evening) by the orally inhaled route. Shake well prior to each inhalation. If symptoms arise between doses, use an inhaled short-acting beta2-agonist for immediate relief. The maximum benefit may not be achieved for 1 week or longer after beginning treatment. Individual patients may experience a variable time to onset and degree of symptom relief. 

Adult and Adolescent Patients Aged 12 Years and Older

For patients 12 years of age and older, the dosage is either 2 inhalations twice daily of ASMANEX HFA 100 mcg or 200 mcg. The starting dosage is based on previous asthma therapy and disease severity, including considerations of the patients' current control of asthma symptoms and risk of future exacerbations. The recommended starting dosage for patients 12 years of age and older who are not on an inhaled corticosteroid is ASMANEX HFA 100 mcg, 2 inhalations twice daily. It is recommended that patients currently receiving chronic oral corticosteroid therapy (e.g., prednisone) begin with ASMANEX HFA 200 mcg (2 inhalations twice daily). For patients who do not respond adequately to the initial dosage after 2 weeks of therapy, increasing the dosage may provide additional asthma control. The maximum daily recommended dose is two inhalations of ASMANEX HFA 200 mcg twice daily (maximum of 800 mcg a day).

After asthma stability has been achieved, it may be desirable to titrate to the lowest effective dosage to reduce the possibility of side effects.

If a dosage regimen of ASMANEX HFA fails to provide adequate control of asthma, re-evaluate the therapeutic regimen and consider additional therapeutic options, e.g., replacing the current strength of ASMANEX HFA with a higher strength, initiating an inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting beta2-agonist combination product, or initiating oral corticosteroids.

Pediatric Patients Aged 5 to Less Than 12 Years

For patients aged 5 to less than 12 years, the dosage is 2 inhalations of ASMANEX HFA 50 mcg twice daily. The maximum daily dosage is 200 mcg.
A hydrophilic or lipophilic drug is entrapped or microencapsulated in a polyhydroxyalkanoate homopolymer or copolymer. The homopolymer or copolymer is synthesized in an aqueous medium containing a dissolved hydrophilic drug by in vitro enzyme polymerization of a hydroxyalkanoate Coenzyme A monomer to form microporous granules entrapping the drug. The enzyme may be a polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase, and the monomer may be 3-hydroxybutyryl Coenzyme A or 3-hydroxyvalerate Coenzyme A. The monomer is produced by reaction of a carboxylic acid group of a hydroxyalkanoic acid with a thiol group of Coenzyme A. To microencapsulate a lipophilic drug, droplets of oil containing a lipophilic drug are formed dispersed in an aqueous medium such as in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion. The polyhydroxyalkanoate homopolymer or copolymer is formed in the aqueous medium by the enzyme polymerization to form microcapsules having a core of oil containing the drug. The granules or microcapsules containing the drug may be dried.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a progressive autoimmune disorder that mainly affects the skin. There are other clinical manifestations as renal, pulmonary, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal tract involvements. Based on the skin involvement there are two subtypes of SSc, as limited cutaneous SSc (lSSc) which involves the acral part of the body and diffuse cutaneous SSc (dSSc) resulting in significant skin thickening of the body. Despite of the extensive research the pathomechanism is not fully clarified, how Ssc develops, moreover identifying biomarkers to predict the clinical outcome and prognosis still remains challenging. Circulating biomarkers can be crucial to define the diagnosis, to predict the prognosis and monitor the clinical course. However, only some patients are responsive to the therapy in SSc, and there is a need to reach the ideal therapy for any individual to prevent or slow down the progression in early stages of the disease. In this narrative review, our purpose was to summarize the potential biomarkers in Ssc, describe their role in the diagnosis, pathomechanism, clinical course, organ manifestations, as well as the response to the therapy. Biomarkers assessment aids in the evaluation of disease progression, and disease outcome.
Thirty-four hEDS and HSD participants will be recruited from the University Health Network (Toronto, Canada). Participants will have baseline evaluations of dyspnea, pulmonary function tests (i.e., oscillometry, spirometry, and lung volumes), respiratory muscle structure and function (i.e., diaphragm ultrasound and respiratory muscle strength), HRQL, anxiety and depression. Symptom limited cardiopulmonary exercise testing will be utilized to quantify exertional dyspnea using the 10-item Borg dyspnea scale, 18-point qualitative dyspnea assessment scale, peak oxygen uptake (peak VO2), and assessment of dynamic ventilatory parameters. Neural activity in the pre-frontal cortex will be measured during cardiopulmonary exercise testing via functional near-infrared spectroscopy. These baseline measures will be compared to 17 age and sex-matched healthy controls. After baseline assessments, hEDS and HSD participants will be randomized to one of the following groups: i) Usual Care plus IMT: 8 weeks of whole-body exercises (standard care provided to hEDS and HSD patients at the University Health Network) plus a concurrent IMT intervention 5 times per week); ii) Usual Care: 8 weeks of whole-body exercises (as outlined above). After four and eight weeks, participants will have repeat assessments as described below.

Exertional dyspnea is a prevalent and troublesome symptom experienced by individuals living with hEDS and HSD. This study will provide a better understanding of the underlying contributors of dyspnea in hEDS and HSD patients, with a focus on respiratory muscle structure and function, prefrontal cortical neural activity, and ventilatory parameters, both at rest and with exertion.
PURPOSE:To obtain the titled drug preparation free from side effect and effective in continuing the remedying effect at an arbitrary drug releasing rate, by using two or more tacky adhesive layers, dispersing solid powder in a specific layer and including a drug in the layer farthest from the skin in application. CONSTITUTION:Among two or more tacky adhesive layers, solid powder is dispersed in a layer other than the tacky adhesive layer farthest from the skin in application and a drug is included in at least the tacky adhesive layer farthest from the skin in application. The solid powder is e.g. talc or kaolin and the particle diameter is preferably about 0.5-30mum. The drug is corticosteroids, anesthetics, etc., and is usually included in a layer different from the layer containing dispersed solid powder, however, it is preferable to include the drug also in the layer containing dispersed solid powder when rapid activity of certain extent is required according to the kind of the drug. The contents of the drug and the solid powder in the preparation are preferably 1-30wt.% and 10-60wt.%, respectively.
Rehabilitation after surgical reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) aims to reestablish the function of the knee. However, regaining previous levels of strength is challenging, with long-term muscle weakness frequently reported and thought to play a key role in the increased risk of knee osteoarthritis for individuals with a history of ACL damage. Effectively building muscle strength requires exercises with high resistance loads, however the joint stress and risk of further injury makes these types of activities inappropriate and unsafe for those rehabilitating after ACL reconstruction surgery and other injuries. Personalized blood flow restriction (BFR) training is a technique where the blood flow to the muscles being exercised is controlled by a pressure cuff to a predefined level, and has been shown to increase strength while exercising with significantly lower loads. Early results have been promising, however the effects of BFR on the biomechanics of the exercise as well as the acceptability in the ACL reconstruction population have not been explored. In this application, we propose a cross-sectional study designed to test the acceptability of BFR training for those undergoing rehabilitation from ACL reconstruction surgery and healthy controls during free standing exercises. We will also investigate the biomechanical effects of this rehabilitation technique. This application is part of a larger program of musculoskeletal research in this area being developed by the team. The results from the proposed project will inform the design of a clinical trial of personalized BFR after ACL reconstruction.
Breast cancer, as the most common cancer, has surpassed lung cancer worldwide. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been linked to the onset of cancer and its prognosis in recent studies. However, quite a few studies have shown that there is a link between NLR and lymph node metastases in cN0 hormone receptor-positive (HR(+)) breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation between NLR and lymph node metastases in cN0 HR(+) breast cancer patients. From January 2012 to January 2022, 220 patients with cN0 HR(+) invasive breast cancers were enrolled in this study. The relationship between NLR and pathological data was statistically examined. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the optimal cutoff of NLR, a chi-squared test was used for the univariate analysis, and logistic analysis was used for the multivariate analysis. The NLR had an optimal cutoff of 2.4 when the Jorden index was at a maximum. Patients with axillary lymph node metastases had a higher NLR (P < 0.05). A Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in cN0 HR(+) breast cancer with axillary lymph node metastasis among different clinical stages, histological grades, Ki-67 levels, tumor sizes, and NLR levels (P < 0.05). Clinical stage, tumor size, and NLR were found to be independent risk factors for lymph node metastases in multifactorial analysis. In cN0 HR(+) breast cancer, NLR is an independent risk factor for lymph node metastases. An NLR ≥ 2.4 indicates an increased probability of lymph node metastases. An elevated preoperative NLR has a high predictive value for axillary lymph node metastases.

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of oral carbendazim in patients with advanced solid tumors. II. Determine the qualitative and quantitative toxic effects of oral carbendazim in these patients. III. Characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of oral carbendazim in these patients. IV. Assess the recommended dose of oral carbendazim to be used in phase II studies. V. Determine preliminary evidence of antitumor activity of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study. Patients receive oral carbendazim weekly for 3 weeks followed by 1 week of rest. Treatment is repeated every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxic effects. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of carbendazim. If dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is seen in 1 of 3 patients treated at a given dose level, 3 additional patients will be entered at the same dose level. Dose escalation continues until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience DLT. Patients are followed for up to 30 days posttreatment.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Up to 35 patients will be accrued for this study.
OBJECTIVES: Delirium is a serious complication of cardiac surgery and a common clinical problem. The study aimed to identify the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of delirium in older patients (≥ 65 years) with first-ever acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was performed in a hospital in northern China. A total of 1033 older patients with first-ever AMI who underwent PCI between January 2018 and April 2021 were screened for delirium using the CAM-ICU method. Clinical and laboratory data were collected.
RESULTS: A total of 134 (12.97%) patients were diagnosed with delirium. Patients with delirium were older. The most common concomitant diseases were cardiac arrest, chronic renal failure, and a history of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). Delirious patients experienced more times of mechanical ventilation, more intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support, high postoperative immediate pain score (VAS), more non-bedside cardiac rehabilitation, and longer total length of stay and cardiac care unit (CCU) time. Multivariable logistic regression showed that age, mechanical ventilation, postoperative immediate pain score, and non-bedside cardiac rehabilitation were independently associated with delirium. Delirium was an independent predictor of prolonged CCU stay, total length of stay, and 1‑year mortality.
CONCLUSION: Age, mechanical ventilation, postoperative immediate pain score, and non-bedside cardiac rehabilitation were independently closely related to delirium in older patients with first-ever AMI who underwent PCI. Delirium was associated with a higher 1‑year all-cause mortality.
This is a multi-center, randomized Phase III Clinical Trials Platform (INHIBIT) in which hemostatic agents will be compared using adaptive design to prevent and eradicate inhibitors in patients with severe hemophilia A. This adaptive design is necessary as randomized trials in rare diseases are otherwise not possible. The INHIBIT Trial Platform includes one Inhibitor Prevention Trial and one Inhibitor Eradication Trial that will be conducted at up to 41 U.S. hemophilia treatment centers (HTCs) affiliated with universities. The Inhibitor Prevention Trial is a 48-week randomized phase III trial in which 66 previously untreated patients (PUPs) (children \< 6 yr) with severe hemophilia A will be enrolled and randomized to preemptive weekly Eloctate vs. Emicizumab to prevent inhibitor formation, defined as anti-FVIII \> 5.0 BU. The Inhibitor Eradication Trial is a 48-week randomized phase III trial in which 90 previously-treated patients (PTPs) with severe hemophilia A and high-responding inhibitors (anti-VIII \>5.0 B.U.), including subjects developing inhibitors during the Prevention Trials and adults or children of any age at the same HTCs refractory to or never previously tolerated, will be enrolled and randomized to Eloctate ITI god plus weekly Emicizumab vs. Eloctate ITI alone to eradicate inhibitor formation, defined as anti-FVIII\<0.6 B.U. Blood draws will be minimized to 6 timepoints, pre, 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks, and validated for small volumes, 3.8 cc (¾ tsp) each. The Inhibit Trials Platform is considered greater than minimal risk as study drug is given before the first bleed and special inhibitor studies are obtained.
