Assessment of Lateral and Vertical Tissue Displacement Obtained by the Retraction Cord and Diode Laser
In fixed prosthodontic treatment, deflection of gingival tissues for diagnosis or making an impression is one of the important phases. Gingival displacement is defined as "displacement of gingival tissues both in vertical and lateral dimensions". Lateral retraction displaces the tissues so that an adequate bulk of impression material can be …
Hyperpolarized 13C Pyruvate MRI Scan in Predicting Tumor Aggressiveness in Patients With Localized Renal Tumor
This feasibility study will evaluate how well hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan works in predicting tumor aggressiveness in patients with localized renal tumor. Hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate is a non-radioactive substance with potential usage in the diagnostic imaging of tumors. Hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate MRI may help doctors determine …
Effect of Intensive Nutritional Support in Subacute Stroke Patient
Proper nutritional support during early rehabilitation may be beneficial for functional improvements in gaining functional independence and preventing complications in stroke patients. However, there was no consensus of proper amount of nutritional support in stroke patients. In this study, the investigators aimed to clarigy the effects of the intensive nutritional …
Balloon Lithoplasty for Preparation of Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions
Severely calcified coronary stenoses are difficult to treat with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using current techniques and there is little specific evidence on how to best treat these cases. It is hypothesized that balloon lithoplasty is superior to conventional balloons for lesion preparation of severely calcified coronary lesions before stent …
Interactive Decision Aid for Men Diagnosed With Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths in the western world (National Cancer Institute, 2011). Prostate cancer diagnosis relates to significant psychological distress (Roesch et al, 2005; Hervouet et al, 2005). The management options available for men with localized prostate cancer typically offer similar survival rate …
Does Insulin Sensitivity Impact the Potential of Metformin to Slow Aging
Aging is the number one risk factor for the majority of chronic diseases. There are no pharmaceutical treatments to slow aging and prolong healthspan. The anti-diabetic drug metformin is considered a likely pharmaceutical candidate to slow aging. In this study, the investigators hypothesize that metformin treatment in subjects free of …
Expanded Access of Omidubicel for Allogeneic Transplantation in Patients With Hematological Malignancies
Omidubicel is an investigational therapy for patients with high-risk hematologic malignancies.
Pemigatinib in Treating Patients With Advanced/Metastatic or Surgically Unresectable Cholangiocarcinoma Including FGFR2 Rearrangement
This is a phase 2 study to investigate the efficacy and safety of Pemigatinib in treating patients with advanced/metastatic or surgically unresectable cholangiocarcinoma with FGFR2 rearrangement who have failed at least 1 previous therapy
Clinical Surveillance vs. Anticoagulation for Low-risk Patients With Isolated Subsegmental Pulmonary Embolism
The clinical significance of pulmonary embolism (PE) limited to the subsegmental pulmonary arteries, so called isolated subsegmental pulmonary embolism (SSPE), remains controversial. Whether isolated SSPE represents "true" PE, a clinically more benign form of PE, a physiologic lung clearing process, or a false positive result (artifact) is currently unclear and …
Pilot Study of Performance Status 2 vs. Performance Status 0-1 Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Treated With Chemo/Immunotherapy
This pilot study is configured as a non-inferiority comparison of Performance Status 2 patients with Performance Status 0-1 patients, with the goal of demonstrating non-inferiority in terms of efficacy (progression-free survival, overall survival) and safety (rates of adverse events, quality of life) when treating Performance Status 2 patients with the …
