Recognition of Heart Failure With Micro Electro-Mechanical Sensors (REFLECS) FI
Heart Failure (HF) is a condition where heart is unable to maintain adequate volume of blood in circulation corresponding to prevailing physiological demand. Gyrocardiography is a technique that utilizes micro electromechanical sensors (MEMS), accelerometer and gyroscope, to detect vibrations and rotation of thorax caused by cardiac motion. The main purpose …
Prevalence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) Following Squamous Cell Carcinomas of the Oropharynx Treatment by Combined Chemoradiotherapy
The study's aim is to determinate the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome after treatment by combined chemoradiotherapy in a locally advanced stages treated population of oropharyngeal cancer. Indeed, the level of knowledge about the consequences of oropharyngeal cancer treatment on sleep quality remains poor but the few studies …
Preclinical Project on the Traitment of Acute Lymphoblastique Leukemia With NVP-BEP800 an Inhibitor of the Heat Shock Protein HSP90
NVP-BEP800, a new HSP90 inhibitor, has particularly interesting therapeutic potential and represents hope in cancer pathologies. While it is currently being tested for solid cancers, no preclinical study has yet demonstrated its effectiveness in acute lymphoblastique leukemia (ALL). The investigators wish to study the effects of NVP-BEP800 on two different …
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 …
