Discordance Between Capillary Refill Time and Oxygen Extraction Ratio in Septic Shock
In septic shock, restoring large-vessel (macrocirculatory) perfusion-reflected by a normal capillary refill time (CRT)-does not always mean that oxygen use at the tissue level has recovered. This mismatch, sometimes called loss of hemodynamic coherence, may be detectable by comparing CRT with the oxygen extraction ratio (O₂ER), a marker of how …
Sex & Sleep in Athletes
Achieving the correct quantity and quality of sleep is essential for the health and recovery processes of the athlete; night rest is often negatively influenced by many variables, including: high training loads, long-range trips, evening competitions, and / or high levels of anxiety and stress. High training loads can therefore …
Trajectory of Microbiota Maturation in Healthy Bern Infants - a Network Approach
Background: Intestinal microbiota composition is fundamental to human health and undergoes critical changes within the first two years of life. Factors probably influencing the microbiota are the maternal microbiota and the general environment in Switzerland. However, the development of the intestinal microbiota is incompletely understood. Gaining knowledge of the trajectory …
Evaluation of Long-term Incidence of Ventricular Arrhythmias in Patients With Acute Myocarditis
Myocarditis is an inflammatory disease of the heart muscle which is mostly caused by viruses, bacteria, parasites, toxic substances/drugs or by primary autoimmune mechanisms. Signs of heart failure (dyspnea, reduced resilience, tendency to edema), thoracic pain, palpitations / arrhythmias / syncope, as well as (potentially) lethal clinical conditions in the …
Pacing to Maintain Physiologic Ventricular Activation
Right ventricular pacing causes ventricular dyssynchrony and may be associated with impaired outcome. In the last decade, several approaches for more physiological pacing became available and were implemented in the latest guidelines. However, compared to conventional device implantation, cardiac resynchronization, His bundle pacing and left bundle area pacing remain demanding …
3D Characterisation of the Skull Base Deformation in Congenital Muscular Torticollis
The congenital muscular torticollis (CMT) is defined by an abnormal posture of the head and the neck compared to shoulders' level of the newborn. The mainly affected muscle is the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) causing a lateral inclination of the head on the side affected by the CMT and a rotation …
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 …
The Assessment Of Myocardial Viability Based On CTA/MRI Hybrid Models
The aim of HYBRIDHEART study is to develop new imagistic prototype for a complex evaluation of the myocardial viability by superposing computed tomographic angiographic polar maps of the myocardium with magnetic resonance imaging contractile maps in subjects who suffered an acute myocardial infarction. Moreover, the study will evaluate the association …
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 …
