Objective: To evaluate the safety, feasibility and clinical efficacy of transthoracic single-hole assisted laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for Siewert Type adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction. Methods: A prospective, single-center, one-arm study will be performed. Patients who have been diagnosed with Siewert type esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma and meet the eligibility criteria will be …
Natural products with immunomodulation and antiviral activity showed a promising improvement in the outcomes of some viral infectious diseases both in preclinical and primitive clinical studies. The aim of this study is to utilize Saudi FDA licensed Nigella sativa (NS) seed oil towards improving disease outcomes in hospitalized adult patients …
Adenoid cystic tumors are rare tumors of the head and neck region. Despite their slow growth, re-irradiation is often necessary due to the high metastatic risk. Patients are usually irradiated with photons or, as here at the Heidelberg University Hospital, with a combination of carbon ions and photons. So far, …
Multimodality treatment that comprises preoperative fluoropyrimidine with concurrent radiotherapy followed by total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery and adjuvant fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy is recommended as a standard treatment of patients with stage II/III rectal cancer. However, the main target of radiotherapy is local control but no improvement in disease-free survival (DFS) or …
Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) is the most significant complication of herpes zoster caused by reactivation of latent Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV). PHN is characterized by neuropathic pain lasting beyond the resolution of the rashes. Post herpetic neuralgia (PHN) represents a potentially debilitating and often undertreated form of neuropathic pain that disproportionately affects …

Tacrolimus is the standard immunosuppressive drug used to prevent organ rejection post liver transplant. One side effect of Tacrolimus is nephrotoxicity. Everolimus does not have the nephrotoxicity side effects of Tacrolimus. Replacement of Tacrolimus by Everolimus may have a reduced incidence of renal dysfunction in liver transplant patients who already …
The main objective is to determine the effectiveness of a program which consists of multidisciplinary, intensive and individualized interventions, carried out by a group of health professionals (psychiatrist, psychologist, mental health nurse, primary care doctors, pharmacist), during six-month, to improve the global cardiovascular risk (CVR) in patients with schizophrenia. Secondarily, …
Background Middle-aged individuals with T2DM, especially in Asian populations, face a heightened risk of sarcopenia. This condition leads to a decline in muscle mass and function, which negatively impacts their quality of life. Effective interventions are therefore urgently needed to slow the progression of the disease and mitigate these risks.MethodsStudy …
Rationale: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the standard therapy for elderly patients with high surgical risks. Paravalvular leakage after TAVI is relatively common and there is conflicting evidence regarding the clinical impact of mild paravalvular leakage in self-expanding devices. Prospective data for self-expanding devices are required to compare …
