Background
Postural control is an important component of movement. Prior to movement initiation, it is necessary to control posture such as gait initiation. Individuals with stroke often show impairment in both postural control and voluntary movement. The deficiencies restrict individuals with
Methods:
Design: The DIRECT ANGIO trial is a French academic, investigator-initiated, multicenter, controlled, open-label, blinded endpoint, two-arm randomized, clinical trial to compare the effectiveness and safety of direct angio-suite admission versus the standard radiological or emergency
Postoperative loss of motor function greatly impairs the patients' quality of life and life expectancy of patients with brain tumors is significant limited. Hence the reduction of time spent on neurorehabilitation is very important.
Inclusion of patients that underwent brain tumor resection with a
Rationale Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) or Astrocytoma's grade IV (WHO) are devastating tumors with one of the worst prognoses in oncology. Extending resection improves survival in patients with GBM. Surgery of GBM nowadays is usually performed under general anesthesia (GA) and resections are not as
Primary brain tumors in adults are less common than metastatic tumors. The most frequent are glioblastoma multiforme, metastases, anaplastic astrocytoma, meningioma, pituitary tumors and vestibular schwannoma. 70% of the tumors in adults are supratentorial. The most infratentorial tumors are
This is an open-label study, Phase 1 study evaluating the preliminary safety, efficacy, tolerability and clinical benefit of Nasal Spray NST-4G in patients with Recurrent Glioblastoma, Gliosarcoma,Anaplastic Gliomas.
Acceptable subjects included in the study will receive Nasal Spray NST-4G,
It is clear that thrombo-embolic prophylaxis is mandatory in neurosurgical interventions. The current prophylactic strategy using preoperatively started low molecular-weight heparine (LMWH) allows still a considerable number of thrombo-embolic complications, in particular in those patients that are
Following injury to the central nervous system (CNS), immune-mediated inflammation profoundly affects the ability of neural cells to survive and to regenerate. The role of inflammation comprises mostly of macrophages, is controversial, since macrophages can both induce neuronal and glial toxicity
BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE Despite recent improvements in the quality of care, in-hospital cardiac arrest is still associated with a high probability of poor outcome. Patients resuscitated from vasopressor-requiring cardiac arrest frequently exhibit early postresuscitation hemodynamic instability that
Due to optimized therapies life expectancy of patients with metastasizing cancer increases. Bone metastases affect 10% - 30% of all cancer patients, especially located in the vertebral column. The main clinical problems are back pain and an increased risk of pathological fracture. Therefore
Study design
In three neuro-oncological outpatient departments of the three study centers (two of them are university medical centers, one a teaching hospital), glioma patients were assessed between March 2014 and March 2015 using three questionnaires. Due to the infrastructure of the outpatient
