## Mini-invasive Spine Surgery for Neuromuscolar Scoliosis
- **NCT ID**: NCT06367933
- **Study ID**: MISNM
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-05
- **Completion Date**: 2026-05
- **Lead Sponsor**: Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli
### Study Description
Neuromuscular scoliosis (SNM) are deformities related to the impairment of normal function of the central nervous system (CNS) and/or peripheral nervous system (PNS) resulting in alterations to the of the functional unit represented by the integrated motor sequence (SIM). At the level of the spine, dysfunction of the SIM results in altered dynamic support of the spine. This results in a control of the trunk that is not harmonious due to the lack of effective mechanisms of muscle compensation. In particular, a greater degree of pelvic tilt with respect to the ground plane, with an increase in the degree of the so-called pelvic obliquity (OP), a fundamental parameter in walking and maintaining the seated posture. Spinal deformity causes severe alterations of the rib cage resulting in respiratory failure that often requires ventilatory supports and is associated with frequent airway infections, including pneumonias, often fatal. SNMs also express other comorbidities: cardiac (heart failure), neurological (epilepsy), nutritional that necessitate careful management multidisciplinary and especially anesthesiological evaluation for the peri-operative management. The surgical treatment of SNM constitutes a topic that is still debated due to both the bio-mechanical peculiarities of SNM and the clinical features, particularly comorbidities, that characterize this patient population. Compared with idiopathic scoliosis surgery, in SNM there is a higher rate of complications. To date, most of the complications are respiratory in nature (23%), followed by complications mechanical of the implanted surgical instrumentation (13%), and surgical site infections (11%). Furthermore, there is evidence that SNM surgery correlates with increased blood loss intraoperative. To date, it is recognized in the literature that the safest and most effective surgical treatment for SNMs is arthrodesis posterior instrumented with pedicle screws extended to the pelvis. In the years, mini-invasive surgical techniques have become increasingly prominent. invasive with the goal of reducing operative time, blood loss and complications themselves.

## Biological Effects of Schema Therapy
- **NCT ID**: NCT06367907
- **Study ID**: SM 68/6-1
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2021-09-09
- **Completion Date**: 2025-06
- **Lead Sponsor**: Jena University Hospital
### Study Description
Background: The major aim of this study is to compare the effects of emotion focused (experiential) and cognitive interventions of schema therapy (ST) on emotion regulation deficits in patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) according to DSM-V (alternative model) criteria. In a randomized, single-blinded parallel-group design clinical effects as well as effects on neurotransmitter metabolism and connectivity will be compared.Method: While the 9-weeks treatment protocol of particular interest includes emotion focused interventions (ST-EF, n=60) such as chair dialogs, imagery rescripting or role play, the active control condition (ST-AC, n=60) is restricted to cognitive interventions, e.g. psychoeducation or pro/contra discussions. MEGA-PRESS 1H-MR spectroscopy and resting-state functional MR imaging (rs-fMRI) will be used before/after treatment protocols (T0-T1) and 6 months after the end of therapy (T2) to assess the effects on glutamate (Glx) and GABA metabolism in key regions of the target networks (executive control network, ECN: dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, DLPFC; salience network, SN: anteromedial cingulate cortex, aMCC; default mode network, DMN: pregenual cingulate cortex, pgACC) and to investigate the corresponding altered connectivity in these networks. The biological aberrations at T0 as compared to healthy controls (n=60) and treatment effects (at T1 and T2, n≥40 in each condition) on these aberrations will be linked to clinical effects measured by an extensive test battery with particular interest on emotion regulation, and specified by the Reliable Change Index (RCI). For longitudinal data mixed model analysis will be performed.The main questions are (1) whether the emotion regulation deficit and the pattern of BPD-specific symptomatology are associated with a specific pattern of Glx and GABA concentrations in the DLPFC, aMCC and pgACC and corresponding deviations of functional connectivity within the ECN, SN and DMN. Hypothesis: Depending on primary and secondary outcome measures at T0, altered RSFC in the DMN, SN and ECN and corresponding altered Glx or GABA concentrations are assumed. (2) whether both treatment conditions have different clinical effects on the ability to regulate emotions and whether the respective clinical effects are associated with the changes in neurobiological aberrations. Hypothesis: It is hypothesized that the ST-EF condition will improve emotion regulation skills more effectively than the control condition. Only in the ST-EF condition are higher response and remission rates expected in the primary and secondary outcome measures, as well as effects on the ECN, SN and DMN with corresponding changes in RSFC and Glx or GABA concentrations.

### Study Description
Nearly 10% of the Belgian population suffer from kidney stone disease. Recent reviews reported that kidney stones represent an underestimated risk factor for further kidney function deterioration. Preventive measures are recommended in lithiases patients to prevent the formation of new stones. The individual effects of different medicated prosthetic interventions have been documented in clinical trials. However, there is little data on the effectiveness of combining these different preventive measures in routine clinical practice (real-world context).Patients with kidney stone disease require a complete metabolic assessment. The three main factors contributing to the stone's formation are the patient's metabolism, diet and lifestyle. Metabolic work-up is recommended by the American Urology Association to identify and correct the factors responsible for urinary stone formation such as hypercalciuria, hyperoxaluria, hyperuricuria, hypocitraturia or abnormalities of urinary pH. The metabolic work-up includes at minimum the 24h urine test, a blood test and spot urine test. Dietary habits and lifestyle are assessed by means of a questionnaire.The CHU Brugmann Hospital has a specialized multidisciplinary clinic for renal lithiases and mineral metabolism. Preventive personalized and interdisciplinary care in CHU Brugmann consists of a full metabolic work-up allowing the identification of lithogenic risk factors by nephrologists, dietary assessment by specialized dieticians and specific treatment protocol associated with regular follow-up.The aim of this study is to evaluate, in the context of a retrospective single-center cohort study, the effect of preventive personalized and interdisciplinary care on the evolution of all urinary lithogenic risk factors and the recurrence of kidney stones (rate of renal colics, emergency room admissions, and urological interventions).

- **Lead Sponsor**: University of California, Berkeley
### Study Description
We will use cognitive exams, perceptual tasks, brain imaging, peripheral psychophysiology, and surveys to investigate the persisting effects of psilocybin on cognition, predictive coding, and affect in healthy older adults. We will measure changes in these measures by comparing baseline to one-week and one-month post-treatment. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive a dose of psilocybin in a range from microdose to moderate-to-high dose. Dose response will be assessed. Anatomical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) will be used to assess changes in brain structure, while functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) will be used to quantify changes in functional brain activity. We will assess whether changes in these brain measures underlie observed changes in cognition, predictive coding and affect.

## Letrozole Alone Protocol Versus Using Letrozole and HCG Protocol

- **Status**: COMPLETED
- **Start Date**: 2022-11-10

### Study Description
Letrozole is a chemical compound, CGS 20267 which is a third-generation, nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor.Letrozole blocks estrogen synthesis by directly affecting the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, subsequently, increases gonadotropins which increase pregnancy rates. Possible positive outcomes of aromatase inhibitors over selective estrogen-receptor modulators include a more physiologic hormonal stimulation of the endometrium which increases receptivity, a lower multiple-pregnancy through single follicle growth, a lesser side-effect especially vasomotor and mood symptoms, and more prompt clearance from blood, hence, reducing the probabilities of periconceptional exposure

## Evaluation of MRI of the Pineal Gland in Retinoblastoma

- **Status**: COMPLETED
- **Start Date**: 2012-10-01
- **Completion Date**: 2023-09-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: Amsterdam UMC, location VUmc
### Study Description
Rationale: Currently baseline brain MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) with extended follow-up of pineal cysts is systematically performed in all new retinoblastoma (Rb) patients, because children with hereditary retinoblastoma have an increased risk of primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNET) that are histopathologically identical to the retinal tumors (1). The prevalence of developing a PNET in combination with unilateral or bilateral hereditary Rb is 5-15% (2). Treatment is difficult and the prognosis is poor as only few survivors are reported. Only patients with small asymptomatic PNETs (\<15 mm) are potentially curable.Objective: The main objective of this prospective multicenter study is to evaluate the current strategy of baseline MRI screening of the brain in newly diagnosed retinoblastoma patients, with extended follow-up of selected patients with simple and complicated pineal cysts.Study design: The investigators propose a prospective cohort study (part of a larger multicenter study) to investigate the diagnostic accuracy and survival of baseline MRI screening of the pineal gland in new patients with retinoblastoma, with extended follow-up of selected patients with pineal cysts for early detection of pineoblastoma.Study population: Within the European Retinoblastoma Imaging Collaboration (ERIC) about 150 new retinoblastoma patients are diagnosed every year. About 10 percent of all new retinoblastoma patients will be diagnosed at the VUmc. According to our sample size calculations the investigators will need 334 Rb patients.Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint of the study is pineoblastoma or supra- / parasellar PNET on MRI (index test). Because a gold standard will not be available, tumor cells in cerebrospinal fluid, histopathological confirmation, clinical disease progression during follow-up, and/or follow-up MRI diagnostics will be used as a composite reference standard in case of a positive index test and clinical diagnosis of pineoblastoma or supra- / parasellar PNET within one year of the last MRI will be used as a composite reference standard in case of a negative index test.

## Trilateral Retinoblastoma: Incidence and Outcomes

- **Start Date**: 2024-01-01

### Study Description
Patients with heritable retinoblastoma are at risk to develop an intracranial brain tumor, which is often fatal. The investigators intend to look at the incidence and survival of trilateral retinoblastoma (which is a brain tumor that can either be located in the pineal gland or elsewhere in the brain) in retinoblastoma patients globally. All retinoblastoma patients from participating centers will be included. The investigators hypothesize that the apparent incidence of trilateral retinoblastoma (especially the usually later diagnosed pineal trilateral retinoblastoma) in low-income countries will be lower because of low chances of surviving the ocular tumors at about 50% and also because of possible under-diagnosis. Therefore, as retinoblastoma care improves in low-income countries the incidence of (pineal) trilateral retinoblastoma might go up. Knowledge about incidence and survival can help improve health practices in parts of the world where this might be needed. Therefore this global study firstly aims 1) to evaluate survival after trilateral retinoblastoma and factors influencing survival and 2) to evaluate incidence of trilateral retinoblastoma by country income level. The study will run from 2024 through 2027.

## Effects of Protein and NAC Co-ingestion on Skeletal Muscle Recovery
- **NCT ID**: NCT06367413
- **Study ID**: UTH-PRoNAC Study
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-04-08
- **Completion Date**: 2024-09-30
- **Lead Sponsor**: University of Thessaly
### Study Description
Previous evidence suggests that though N-acetylcysteine (NAC) supplementation following eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage disrupts the skeletal muscle's repair and remodelling process at 8 days of recovery, it attenuates substantially the decline of skeletal muscle performance during the first 48 hours of recovery. The enhanced performance capacity during the first phase of recovery in response to NAC supplementation might be attributed to the altered redox status in skeletal muscle as a consequence of the NAC-mediated elevation of reduced glutathione (GSH) levels. The rise in GSH results in a redox-dependent attenuation of immune cell mobilisation and reduction of oxidative stress response, leading to a blunted rise of muscle damage and inflammatory markers during the first 2-3 days of recovery. However, following exercise-induced muscle damage, protein synthesis increases in skeletal muscle over the next 24-48 hours to support its repair process, and thus protein supplementation might accelerate the recovery process by enhancing the protein synthetic response. Therefore, the present study aims at investigating for first time the combined effect of NAC and whey protein supplementation on the short-term (during the first 72 hours) recovery process of skeletal muscle following damaging exercise (eccentric exercise) and compared it with the well-documented efficacy of NAC supplementation. The results of this study might be particularly useful for athletes, such as those in soccer and basketball, that participate in 3 games or intense training sessions during the same macrocycle with only 48-72 hours of recovery in-between.

## Resistance Exercise Training in the Older Population With Obesity

- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-06-01

- **Lead Sponsor**: Universidad de La Frontera
### Study Description
Background:Aging leads to an alteration in the immune response, characterized by a chronic inflammatory state, and a progressive decrease in muscle quantity and quality, a situation that increases in women and in the presence of obesity. With respect to muscle quality, intramuscular infiltration of adipose tissue has been considered a relevant parameter, involved in the relationship between aging-obesity-inflammation. As a therapeutic strategy, physical training with resistance exercises (or also known as strength training) has been shown to be effective in increasing skeletal muscle mass in this age group. However, its role on muscle quality in normal-weight versus obese older women has not been fully addressed.Hypothesis:A 12-week resistance exercise training program is effective in improving muscle quality, immune response and physical performance in normal weight and obese older women. In addition to the above, the investigators hypothesize that women with obesity will present greater baseline alterations, so the percentage of change will be higher compared to older women with normal weight after the training program.Goals:The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of a 12-week resistance exercise training on muscle quality (infiltration of intramuscular adipose tissue), immune response and physical performance in older women between 60 and 79 years of age with obesity compared to older women with normal weight of the same age range.Methodology:The present clinical trial will consider 2 groups of older women between 60 and 79 years old: normal weight (BMI=18.5 to 24.9 kg/m 2 and % fat \<25.9) and obese (BMI =30 to 39.9 Kg/m 2 and fat % \>32). Participants will perform 12 weeks of training with resistance exercises 3 times a week. Before and after training, intramuscular infiltration of adipose tissue (echogenicity) will be measured by ultrasound, followed by aspects of muscle architecture (muscle thickness, penile angle and fascicle length) and functional parameters of muscle quality (maximum strength determined by 1 repetition maximum-1RM, maximum voluntary isometric strength of knee extensors through a lower limb force and power transducer). Finally, fasting blood samples will be obtained (immune response) and physical performance, body composition, physical activity level, and quality of life will be evaluated.

## The Application of Pressured Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) for Peritoneal Surface Malignancies
- **NCT ID**: NCT06367270
- **Study ID**: UW 23-361
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2023-09-01
- **Completion Date**: 2027-08-31
- **Lead Sponsor**: The University of Hong Kong
### Study Description
Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a novel minimally invasive drug delivery system for patients with peritoneal metastases (PM). It has been considered as a safe and feasible palliative treatment alternative proven by previous phase I studies. Currently available evidence on feasibility, efficacy and tolerability in Asian populations is limited. In this open-label, single-arm, monocentric clinical trial, investigators aim to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and complications of PIPAC with oxaliplatin as an alternative on patients of unresectable colorectal cancer with PM and doxorubicin and cisplatin on patients of unresectable gastric and pancreatic cancers with PM. Alternative regimen can be considered multidisciplinary tumour board meeting. Patients will be recruited according to the inclusion criteria and treated for 3 cycles of PIPAC and concurrent systemic chemotherapy. The goal was to repeat PIPAC every 6-8 weeks for at least three procedures, and the delay of the systemic chemotherapy is 2 weeks before and after each PIPAC procedure. If PM was considered to become resectable during PIPAC, patients were discussed at the multidisciplinary tumour board for curative intent cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The primary outcome is the clinical benefit rate (CBR), measured by an independent radiologist according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) and Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) assessed by laparoscopy and histopathological tumour response evaluated by pathologists blinded to clinical outcomes. Key secondary outcomes include the major and minor treatment-related adverse events according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTACE) up to 4 weeks after the treatment, Cytological tumour response of peritoneal lavage or ascites, treatment-related characteristics, hospital stay, progression-free survival, overall survival and readmission rate. The proposed study duration is 3 years from the start date and the estimated sample size is 51 according to centre capacity.

## Transplant Wellness Program
- **NCT ID**: NCT06367244
- **Study ID**: TWP2023
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2023-11-16
- **Completion Date**: 2033-11
- **Lead Sponsor**: University of Calgary
### Study Description
Wellness is defined as the active pursuit of activities, choices and lifestyles that lead to a state of overall health. Prehabilitation, or using rehabilitation in the period before surgery, can improve the pre, during, and post operative experience for the patient. Although exercise as prehabilitation has been well established in organ transplant, the investigators believe a multiphase approach will help to better serve patients and support patient wellness in the long-term. Supporting wellness behaviour change, such as exercise, stress reduction, and sleep, is associated with improved quality of life (QoL), mood, and improvements in well-being. Including behaviour change support in an exercise program can help support transplant patients in long-term positive lifestyle changes. The Transplant Wellness Program (TWP) is an exercise behaviour change program that includes additional wellness components such as nutrition, stress reduction, and sleep programs to support overall health and QoL of transplant patients. Specifically, the TWP will implement physical activity and behaviour change support for patients pre- and post-transplant surgery, addressing functional (frailty, indices of fitness, physical activity levels) and mental (anxiety, stress) outcomes to improve overall QoL. The TWP includes a 12-week exercise program that is delivered either pre-transplant or post-transplant, depending on length of time from study enrollment to transplant surgery. In addition to the exercise intervention, the TWP includes maintenance resources (access to group exercise classes, wellness webinars, group wellness coaching etc.), and wellness behaviour change support. The goal of the TWP is to improve outcomes of participants throughout their transplant journey, as well as reduce health services use. Collected outcomes will include program reach, effectiveness measures such as changes in physical fitness, adoption by healthcare practitioners, implementation of the program, and maintenance. In addition, will also collect health care use measures as the investigators believe the TWP will result in the reduction of several health care use outcomes, such as the number of hospital admissions (including intensive care unit admissions), length of hospital stays and emergency room utilization.

### Study Description
Detecting memory problems early is crucial for treating conditions like Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), which often leads to dementia. Currently, doctors use tests in clinics to check for these issues. However, there's a growing need for better methods to monitor our cognitive skills over time. Computer games emerge as a cost-effective solution for assessing the brain functions of older adults.In our study, we are investigating the potential of computer games to reflect the cognitive skills of older adults. We developed the VibrantMinds platform, featuring five games: Whack-a-Mole, Bejeweled, Mahjong Solitaire, Word Search, and Memory Game. We have evaluated these games for ease of use, enjoyment, and their impact on brain functions. Now, our goal is to determine whether these games can offer valuable insights into the cognitive skills of older adults.We are collecting demographic data, game-playing data, and cognitive test results. Our analysis will determine the correlation between game data, cognitive test outcomes, and demographic information. Additionally, we will assess both the perceived and observed engagement of older adults as they play the games.

## Opioid-Free Combined Anesthesia With Spontaneous Breathing for VATS
- **NCT ID**: NCT06367218
- **Study ID**: S058
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-05-01
- **Completion Date**: 2026-08-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: Tongji Hospital
### Study Description
Non-tracheal intubated combined anesthesia with preserved spontaneous breathing significantly enhances the quality and speed of recovery post-VATS for patients undergoing lung nodule surgery. The "opioid-sparing strategy," which substitutes ketamine for opioids during surgery, not only provides effective analgesia but also protects perioperative lung function and reasonably prevents the occurrence of opioid-related adverse reactions; it also reduces medical costs and shortens the average hospital stay. However, the degree of benefit to patients lacks high-level clinical evidence. This study aims to comprehensively assess the effect of opioid-free combined anesthesia with preserved spontaneous breathing for VATS lung nodule surgery on postoperative rapid recovery from multiple aspects including postoperative lung function and pulmonary complications, pain, gastrointestinal function, nausea/vomiting, cognitive function, and depression/anxiety, intending to expand the dataset and application prospects in this field, and increase feasibility experience.

## Utility of the Clamping Bean Test (CBT) for Covert Hepatic Encephalopathy Screening

- **Status**: ENROLLING_BY_INVITATION
- **Start Date**: 2023-10-09
- **Completion Date**: 2024-12-31
- **Lead Sponsor**: Shanghai Changzheng Hospital
### Study Description
Hepatic encephalopathy is a brain dysfunction caused by liver insufficiency and/or porto-systemic shunt. It manifests as a wide spectrum of neurological or psychiatric abnormalities ranging from subclinical alterations to coma. According to the symptoms, it is classified as covert HE (CHE) and overt HE (OHE). CHE can progress to OHE and is associated with reduced driving ability, increased risk of accidents and hospitalization and weakened health-related quality of life, resulting in poor prognosis and socio-economic status. However, due to the absence of readily identifiable clinical symptoms and signs, CHE is often neglected in clinical practice.Presently, the diagnosis of CHE depends on psychometric and neurophysiological tests, including the psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score (PHES), critical flicker frequency (CFF) test, continuous reaction time (CRT) test, inhibitory control test, the SCAN test, and electroencephalography. Among them, PHES is most widely used and recommended by several guidelines. However, it is difficult to screen CHE among all cirrhotic patients in the clinic using PHES because of the time required and a dependence on trained experts.Moving beans from one container to another with tweezers involves dexterity, agility and coordination.The hypothesis was that the utility of the Clamping Bean Test (CBT) will enable early screening patients with CHE.

Some studies have shown that combination therapy of antibodies targeting cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) significantly improves clinical benefit over PD-1 antibody alone. However, broad application of this combination has been limited by toxicities. Cadonilimab is a humanized immunoglobulin G1 bispecific antibody targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4. It mutates to eliminate Fc receptor and complement-mediated cytotoxic effects. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cadonilimab combined with chemotherapy as a first or second-line treatment of recurrent and metastatic TNBC. This study is a multicenter, single arm, phase II, non randomized, open label, Simon two-stage design. It is planned to enroll 27 late stage TNBC patients.

## General Anesthesia/Surgical Exposure on White Matter Development in Children

- **Lead Sponsor**: Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University
### Study Description
International large-scale clinical studies have found that prolonged or repeated exposure to general anesthesia drugs in infancy and early childhood can lead to an increased risk of long-term neurodevelopmental abnormalities in children. The study of neurodevelopmental toxicity of general anesthesia drugs is of great social significance. We have established a rhesus monkey model to study the neurodevelopmental toxicity of general anesthetic drugs, the first time to make a preliminary exploration of the mechanism of myelin developmental toxicity of general anesthetic drugs. Several studies using magnetic resonance scanning found a positive correlation between the number of anesthesia exposures and the maturity of distant brain white matter development in juvenile non-human primates. Clinical evidence for myelin developmental toxicity induced by general anesthetic drugs needs to be collected by conducting multicenter and large-sample clinical studies. Earlier studies have either had low sample sizes, which do not allow for better control of confounding factors; or the study population has been limited to specific disease populations, and the results cannot be extrapolated to normal children. In view of this, based on the applicant's earlier study, this project proposes to recruit children who underwent general anesthesia surgery between 0-3 years of age and are now 12-15 years old; children who did not experience surgery between 0-3 years of age were matched by age-sex to serve as a control group. MRI will be used to assess their brain white matter development, to explore the correlation between anesthesia and anesthesia-related factors and brain white matter development and related neurobehavioral development, and to clarify the effects of anesthesia and surgery on children's brain white matter and related neuropsychological development.

## Methylation-specific PCR Test for Early Screening and Early Diagnosis of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
- **NCT ID**: NCT06367049
- **Study ID**: 2023-FXY-230-NPC
- **Status**: COMPLETED
- **Start Date**: 2023-06-01
- **Completion Date**: 2024-03-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: Sun Yat-sen University
### Study Description
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is one of the most common malignant tumors in China, with the progress of radiochemical comprehensive treatment, early stage The 5-year survival rate of nasopharyngeal cancer is more than 95%. However, due to the hidden site of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the lack of obvious early clinical symptoms, more than 70% of the 87,000 newly diagnosed cases each year belong to the advanced stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and the 5-year survival rate of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma is only about 70%. Therefore, early screening and diagnosis and early treatment are the key to improve the survival of patients with nasopharyngeal cancer. Selecting a sensitive and accurate biomarker for nasopharyngeal cancer and relying on a simple and feasible examination method for sampling detection will greatly improve the early diagnosis rate of nasopharyngeal cancer.DNA methylation is a form of chemical modification of DNA that can be done without altering the DNA sequence changes in genetic expression. The main role of DNA methylation is to regulate gene expression. Tumor suppressor genes play the functions of regulating cell differentiation, maturation and programmed death. However, if methylation of promoter region occurs, the expression of tumor suppressor genes is inhibited and the function is lost, resulting in cells remaining in the stage of low differentiation and proliferation, inhibition of apoptosis, formation of blood vessels by cluster cells, loss of cell adhesion, and formation of tumors. It can be seen that DNA methylation occurs in the early stage of tumor, and this biological feature makes it a strong application prospect in early tumor screening.There are many methods to detect DNA Methylation, among which methylation-specific PCR (MSP) can easily and quickly determine the methylation status of a specific gene, meeting the affordable, convenient, and easy to generalize characteristics required for screening tests. In combination with previous MSP experiments and previous reports, we found that the methylation levels of promoter fragments of H4C6, Septin9 and RASSF1A genes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those in healthy human nasopharyngeal tissues. This suggests that methylation of these three genes may be used as biomarkers for early screening and diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Therefore, this study intends to detect the methylation status of H4C6, Septin9 and RASSF1A genes based on MSP method with simple operation and low cost. Using clinicopathological diagnosis as the gold standard, the value of this gene methylation index in early screening and early diagnosis of nasopharyngeal cancer was verified, providing a new detection index and method for improving the early diagnosis rate of nasopharyngeal cancer.

## The Effect of Pelvic Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Techniques in Patients With Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction
- **NCT ID**: NCT06366971

- **Status**: COMPLETED
- **Start Date**: 2023-12-01
- **Completion Date**: 2024-03-31
- **Lead Sponsor**: Biruni University
### Study Description
The sacroiliac joint dysfunction (SIJD) which has a widely heterogeneous etiology, may cause impairment of stability, mobility, posture and flexibility as well as pain due to adaptive or pathological biomechanical changes. In 2020, the number of patients with low back pain (LBP) worldwide was more than half a billion and is expected to exceed 800 million by 2050. Although SIJD has been shown to be related with LBP in more than 30% of patients with LBP, SIJD is still often overlooked as a cause of LBP. Once the diagnosis of SIJD is confirmed by physical examination, the first treatment option consists of the use of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug or physiotherapy approaches. The proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) is a neurophysiological model-based multifaceted exercise method which is widely used in rehabilitation practice. However, despite the major role of SIJD among the causes of LBP, there are limited studies investigating the efficacy of PNF in SIJD and its effectiveness remains unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pelvic PNF techniques on pain, mobility, flexibility, lumbar range of motion, posture, and trunk muscle endurance in patients with SIJD.

They offer a unique advantage by presenting challenges that more closely mirror the complexities and demands of everyday tasks compared to traditional laboratory experiments, clinical tests, and standardized assessments. Our team took an innovative step in this direction by developing a suite of tablet-based games, titled VibrantMinds. These games, varying in type, are designed to measure diverse cognitive indicators, acting as proxies for assessments typically conducted using paper-and-pencil tests in clinical settings.VibrantMinds games have been specifically crafted to be user-friendly and engaging for older adults, including those with dementia. Our studies have shown that these individuals not only find the games accessible but also exhibit measurable improvement in gameplay, suggesting potential benefits for cognitive skill training.Building on this foundation, we are now poised to conduct an in-depth investigation into the actual effectiveness of serious computer games (SCGs) for cognitive enhancement and their application in real-world settings for older adults. This next phase of research will leverage the VibrantMinds platform to carry out studies aimed at validating software-defined indicators of cognitive function and measuring the impact of game-based interventions on cognitive abilities, health-related quality of life, and other significant real-life outcomes.The anticipated results promise to expand our understanding of the potential for new technologies in cognitive assessment and intervention. Moreover, by employing machine learning analysis of the data collected through VibrantMinds, we aim to develop a taxonomy that correlates game complexity and player performance with conventional clinical instruments for assessing cognitive status and functioning.

## Stigma and Psychological profilE in REctal-anal caNcer pAtients

### Study Description
In 2022, Italy is estimated to have 48,100 cases of colon-rectum cancer. Locally advanced mid-lower rectal cancers require preoperative chemo-radiotherapy with fluoropyrimidine. The diagnosis and treatment of rectal cancer have a significant impact on patients' well-being, causing physical and psychological distress. Symptoms such as abdominal pain, fatigue, diarrhea, are commonly reported. While distress levels have been examined before, the relationship between other aspects of the patient experience, such as psychosocial factors, stigma, temperament and personality, alexithymia, have not been extensively explored. Colorectal cancer is associated with specific socially stigmatized challenges. Stigmatization is defined as societal identification of an individual as abnormal and worthy of separation, leading to discrimination and loss of social status. Rectal cancer patients may perceive high levels of stigma and blame due to factors such as defecation-related symptoms, colonoscopy or rectal examinations, physical limitations, loss of work ability and the use of colostomy or ileostomy. Anal cancer, although traditionally surrounded by social stigma, is gaining awareness worldwide due to increasing diagnoses. In other forms of cancer, stigma has been linked to personality traits. Given the characteristics related to the illness and the profile of rectal and anal cancer patients, it is important to assess the psychological traits and psychological resources, also in order to establish tailored psychological pathways during the disease trajectory that comprehend chemoradiations and possible subsequent surgery. Currently, there is no documented data on the relationship between stigma, and psychological profiles in rectal and anal cancer patients. Aim of this protocol is to evaluate the stigma, and psychopathological profile in rectal and anal cancer patients and to evaluate changes in those variables over time.

- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-04

- **Lead Sponsor**: Birmingham Women's NHS Foundation Trust
### Study Description
During pregnancy, certain conditions may arise that mean regular monitoring of both mother and baby are needed to ensure timely interventions and avoid the need for further treatments. These situations include problems with high blood pressure, obstetric cholestasis (characterised by liver-related itchiness), preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), and a history of stillbirth. Monitoring typically involves assessing the mother's blood pressure and urine, recording the baby's heart rate over a specific duration, and conducting regular ultrasound scans. Such monitoring can require frequent hospital visits, often multiple times a week, which can be very time consuming. More recently, new technology has emerged, enabling remote monitoring of mother and baby outside of the hospital setting, such as their own home. However, research on these technologies is still very limited.Our study aims to address this research gap by inviting women with the above conditions to volunteer for home-based monitoring, alongside their routine hospital care. Participants will be divided into three groups: one group will use transducers, attached to the mothers tummy, to capture the baby's heartbeat; another group will use a handheld ultrasound device connected to their mobile phones, allowing them to observe the baby; and a third group will use both devices. All device information will be transmitted securely to the healthcare professional for analysis. The investigators aim to assess the feasibility of conducting remote monitoring of mother and baby, whilst understanding how acceptable the technology is received.Importantly, the data collected will only be evaluated by the research team and will not be intended to influence patient's current planned antenatal care. Women will receive comprehensive training on the devices. The study will additionally gather feedback from participating women through questionnaires, both at the study's outset and its conclusion, regarding their experiences and emotions related to the research.

## Development and Initial Application of a Combined Exercise and Psychological Intervention Program for Patients After Esophagectomy
- **NCT ID**: NCT06366685
- **Study ID**: YJS20230170
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-05-01
- **Completion Date**: 2025-02-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: Mengmeng Yuan
### Study Description
Esophageal cancer imposes a significant burden in China, accounting for over 60% of the global disease burden. While surgery remains a common and highly effective treatment for esophageal cancer, patients often experience multiple physical and psychological symptoms postoperatively, severely affecting their recovery outcomes and quality of life. Although existing exercise or psychological intervention programs have shown some effectiveness, issues such as relatively singular intervention content, imprecise intervention timing, and vague intervention details persist.This project, based on previous research foundations (including the development of symptom measurement tools and the identification of key recovery periods), is guided by symptom management theory and knowledge translation models. Taking a perspective of the synergistic impact of physical and psychological symptoms, the study focuses on patients undergoing esophageal cancer surgery. Initially, evidence-based literature review, focus group interviews, and expert consultations were conducted to develop a combined exercise and psychological intervention program, integrating subjective (CSCA_EC) and objective (6MWT) measurement indicators, named "Recovery For EC." Subsequently, the program was preliminarily applied in clinical settings using a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative quasi-experimental design (108 cases) and qualitative interviews to assess its acceptability. The final clinical trial version of the Recovery For EC program was developed to provide patients with a tool for self-monitoring recovery outcomes and offer clinical healthcare professionals guidance for implementing precise and personalized rehabilitation management.
