Prehabilitation (Prehab) encompasses a series of interventions that are intended to help patients improve their physical state and psychological well-being pre-intervention to reduce the days of hospitalization and the number of post-operative complications. Patients who participate in Prehab require less postoperative care and consequently have less impact on the cost of the healthcare system. However, adherence to a face-to-face program is usually poor and presents both organizational and psychophysical barriers. In the last years, telerehabilitation has proven to be a viable alternative to face-to-face treatment and has already been adopted for the Prehab. Electrostimulation (ESM) is regularly used successfully in clinical settings for the recovery of muscle tone in patients with orthopedic pathologies. In addition, it has already been used for Prehab, showing an increase in muscle strength and a decrease in postoperative hospital stay following knee arthroplasty. Also Exercise offers benefits in the treatment of orthopedic patients because improve: strength, cardiovascular fitness, functional capacities and quality of life. Therefore, in a group of patients who are candidates for elective lower limb arthroplasty surgery, it was decided to evaluate the effects of a Tele Prehab program, based on the ESM, and compare them with those of an Tele Prehab exercise program, equal in dose and duration. The proposal differs from those present in the literature for complete administration in telerehabilitation, including evaluations. conditions: Osteo Arthritis Knee and Hip conditions: Lower Limb Arthroplasty studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: RANDOMIZED interventionModel: PARALLEL primaryPurpose: TREATMENT masking: NONE count: 44 type: ESTIMATED name: ELECTROSTIMULATION (ES) name: EXERCISE (C) measure: Change from baseline in functional capacities on 30 Seconds Chair Stand Test (30CST) at week 4 measure: Change from baseline in functional capacities on Timed Up and Go test (TUG) at week 4. sex: ALL minimumAge: 55 Years maximumAge: 80 Years stdAges: ADULT stdAges: OLDER_ADULT facility: "Città di Pavia Healthcare Institute" city: Pavia zip: 27100 country: Italy name: Luca Marin role: CONTACT phone: 0382 433658 phoneExt: +39 email: [email protected] name: Luca Marin role: PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR name: Matteo Chiodarono role: SUB_INVESTIGATOR lat: 45.19205 lon: 9.15917 hasResults: False

The etymology of "hemorrhoid" is traced back to the Greek words haima (blood) and rhoos (flow). Prevalent in over 20% of the population across various life stages, this anorectal condition impacts both genders. The multifaceted development of the disease incorporates theories encompassing abnormal dilation of hemorrhoidal plexuses, distension of arteriovenous anastomoses, prolapse of anal pads, and a myriad of genetic, anatomical, dietary, and lifestyle factors. Manifestations range from venous distension to bleeding and thrombosis, with classification based on location (internal/external/combined) and degree of prolapse (grade 1-4).
Upon comprehensive history-taking and examinations, including digital rectal and proctoscope assessments, a definitive diagnosis is established, leading to the treatment phase. Although outpatient procedures demonstrate efficacy, patients may persist with pain and discomfort. Medical intervention assumes significance for stages 1 and 2, incorporating approaches such as rubber-band ligation, injection sclerotherapy, and dietary modifications. Micronized Purified Flavonoid Fraction (MPFF), integral to hemorrhoid treatment, has been scrutinized for its ability to mitigate pathogenic processes culminating in acute bleeding. The stagnation of blood in vascular plexuses prompts an inflammatory response, activating white cells and increasing vessel wall permeability. MPFF's flavonoid compounds are posited to alleviate bleeding by augmenting venous tone, reducing stasis, inhibiting inflammatory mediators, and enhancing lymphatic drainage\[8\]. Multiple trials substantiate MPFF's efficacy in ceasing bleeding, alleviating symptoms, and preventing hemorrhoid relapse.
Aescin, a saponin mixture found in Aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut). The primary active component, β-aescin, contributes to the plant's medicinal attributes. Experimental investigations in animal models underscore its anti-edematous, anti-inflammatory, and venotonic properties, attributed to molecular mechanisms facilitating ion entry into channels and elevating venous tension. While the therapeutic benefits of aescin for hemorrhoids are acknowledged, the absence of randomized control trials impedes the conclusive validation of its efficacy. In the realm of diverse treatment options, this proposed randomized controlled trial aims to assess the comparative effectiveness of combining aescin with MPFF versus MPFF alone in managing hemorrhoid-related symptoms. The study aspires to furnish valuable insights for refining therapeutic strategies in the management of hemorrhoids and enhancing patient outcomes. conditions: Anorectal Disorder studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: RANDOMIZED interventionModel: PARALLEL primaryPurpose: TREATMENT masking: TRIPLE whoMasked: PARTICIPANT whoMasked: INVESTIGATOR whoMasked: OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR count: 60 type: ESTIMATED name: Aescin in Horse Chestnut name: Flavonoid measure: Cessation of bleeding sex: ALL minimumAge: 18 Years maximumAge: 85 Years stdAges: ADULT stdAges: OLDER_ADULT facility: Maharaj Chiang Mai hospital city: Chiangmai state: Maung zip: 50200 country: Thailand name: WITCHA VIPUDHAMORN, FRCS role: CONTACT phone: 0863645085 email: [email protected] lat: 18.79038 lon: 98.98468 hasResults: False

Unfortunately, cART is not curative, as within a few weeks of treatment cessation, HIV viremia in most patients rebounds except for rare elite or post-treatment controllers of viremia. The primary source of this rebound is the highly stable reservoir of latent yet replication-competent HIV-1 proviruses integrated into the genomic DNA of resting memory CD4+ T cells. To achieve a cure for HIV, understanding the cell reservoir environment is of paramount importance. The size and nature of viral reservoir might vary per timing of therapy, therapeutic response, ART duration, and immune response. Mechanisms of reservoir maintenance generally depend on levels/type of immune recognition, dynamics of viral persistence are different between pediatric and adult populations, owing to, but not limited to, types/numbers of target cells, efficiency in clearing HIV-infected cells, plasma viremia and HIV drug resistance patterns. This difference could become more evident as these children grow toward adolescence (increasing population due to ART benefits), a stage during which suboptimal adherence is frequent, leading to viral rebound and archiving of resistant patterns.
Objectives: We plan to conduct a cross sectional study with the aim to characterize HIV reservoirs and their variability according to virological and immunological profiles of non-B HIV-1 vertically infected adolescents receiving antiretroviral therapy. Specifically, we shall (1) evaluate the size of HIV reservoir; (2) Determine HIV-1 genetic variability and drug resistance in cellular reservoirs; (3) Characterize immune activation/inflammation of HIV infected adolescents.
Methods: We plan to conduct an observational and comparative study involving 90 HIV-1 non-B infected adolescents aged 10-19 years vertically infected, have been on ART for at least 12 months selected from a cohort of the ongoing EDCTP-READY study; intravenous blood will be collected for CD4/CD8 count, plasmatic viral load, PBMCs isolation, immune activation/inflammatory markers, genotyping and Viral reservoir quantification. We will as well recruit a group of 30 HIV-negative adolescents as control for immunological profiling.
Overall impact: Our findings will help in advancing knowledge on HIV reservoir, in terms of size and genetic variability in adolescents living with HIV (ADLHIV). Such evidence will also help in understanding the effects of ART timing and duration on the size of reservoirs among ADLHIV, a unique population from whom findings generated will largely contribute in designing functional cure strategies in this vulnerable population. conditions: Characterization of HIV Reservoirs in Adolescents studyType: OBSERVATIONAL observationalModel: OTHER timePerspective: CROSS_SECTIONAL count: 140 type: ACTUAL name: non applicable measure: Archived HIV drug resistance mutations measure: HIV-1 reservoirs measurement sex: ALL minimumAge: 10 Years maximumAge: 19 Years stdAges: CHILD stdAges: ADULT facility: Chantal Biya International Reference Centre city: Yaounde state: Centre zip: 99999 country: Cameroon lat: 3.86667 lon: 11.51667 hasResults: False

Severe TBI presents challenges in managing intracranial pressure (ICP) and cerebral perfusion, often requiring surgical intervention. DC involves the removal of a section of the skull to reduce ICP, while Cisternostomy, a technique rooted in microsurgery, aims to alleviate brain edema and lower ICP by creating additional space for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation.
This prospective study will be conducted at the Department of Neurosurgery, Punjab Institute of Neurosciences, Lahore. Patients meeting inclusion criteria will be randomized into Group A (DC) and Group B (Cisternostomy) following brain CT scans. Clinical evaluation will include regular follow-ups for 6 months post-surgery, recording data on GOS, duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU, and hospital stays. Analysis will be performed using SPSS 24, comparing outcomes between groups using Chi-square test and t-test. A significance level of p≤0.05 will be applied.
It is hypothesized that Cisternostomy, as an adjunct to traditional TBI management, will effectively reduce ICP, resulting in improved GOS and reduced complications postoperatively, including decreased duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay, with sustained improvement observed at 6 months conditions: Severe Traumatic Brain Injury studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED interventionModel: PARALLEL interventionModelDescription: The intervention model of this study is a parallel model.

However, some pediatric survivors experience long-term morbidity (cognitive, psychological, social and/or physical disorders) associated with their intensive care stay. Currently in France, there are no recommendations for the management of these patients and most of them do not have standardized follow-up.
Objectives Main objective: To assess the feasibility of implementing systematic and comprehensive management of pediatric patients who have been admitted to the PICU.
Intermediate objectives are to study:
* The needs of the children and their families which should be met by this management
* The acceptability of this organizational innovation for all the actors involved
* The cooperation between actors of the hospital and city health system + social professionals involved
* The costs of implementation and the budgetary impact of such a system
Methods Needs assessment: questionnaires and interviews with patients and their families (parents and possibly siblings if involved) to collect the medico-psycho-social impact of the PICU stay at the time of discharge and 3 months later.
Study of acceptability: quantitative survey of health professionals involved in the care of these children and expected care modalities. This includes pediatric intensivists, professionals from the children's usual care services (if applicable), attending physician.
Study of cooperation: analysis of needs and of the network usually solicited for the children benefiting from this care: who is identified, who remains to be identified, obstacles. Quantitative analysis of consultation reports and survey of professionals.
Budgetary impact analysis: study of the cost of setting up consultations for the health care system, and study of its financial and health consequences for the main needs identified, on the basis of data from the literature and expert opinions

<|newrecord|> nctId: NCT06363279 id: 2024/24JAN/044 briefTitle: Validation of the French ATI Scale and Predisposition to Use Technological Tools in Rehabilitation. overallStatus: RECRUITING date: 2024-04-04 date: 2024-09 date: 2024-10 date: 2024-04-12 date: 2024-04-12 name: Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain class: OTHER briefSummary: Aim of the study: The first aim of this study is to validate the translation of the Affinity for Technology Interaction (ATI) questionnaire. This questionnaire was developed in English by Franke, Attig and Wessel in 2019. It consists of 9 items and was developed to assess a person's tendency to actively engage in technological interaction, or the ease with which a person uses technological tools. Currently, the questionnaire has been translated into French by our research team according to good practice recommendations (Guillemin, Bombardier and Beaton, 1993; Tsang et al., 2017), but this French version has not yet been validated. To validate the translation of a questionnaire, it is necessary to have it completed by a large number of subjects from the population of interest. In neurorehabilitation, measuring this affinity will make it possible to better identify patients who are more likely to adhere to tele-rehabilitation and thus direct them towards this type of treatment as a complement to conventional rehabilitation.
