Keratometric Change After XEN, Trabeculectomy and Tube Shunts
The main goal of this study is to assess the severity of postoperative corneal astigmatism induced by implantation of the XEN Gel Stent compared to that induced by traditional filtering surgery (trabeculectomy and GDDs). Corneal astigmatism can be assessed using corneal topography, a non-invasive tool which provides an...
Following glaucoma surgery, patients often experience decreased visual acuity (VA) which can partly be explained by induced changes to the optical properties of the cornea. Corneal astigmatism can be assessed using corneal topography, a non-invasive tool which provides an accurate estimate of corneal curvature in all m...

Using Telephone Counselling to Improve Exercise Participation in Hematologic Cancer Survivors
This study evaluates the impact of a 12-week theory-based exercise telephone counselling program (versus a self-directed exercise group) on closing the exercise intention-behavior gap in a sample of hematologic cancer survivors.
Problem: Regular exercise participation improves quality of life and physical function for cancer survivors. Unfortunately, the most effective way of promoting exercise to cancer survivors has yet to be determined, and as a result, many survivors are inactive. Theory-based efforts have typically focused on promoting in...

Does Saline Injection Around Phrenic Nerve Reduce Incidence of Diaphragmatic Paresis Following Interscalene Block?
Hemi-diaphragmatic palsy is a common undesirable effect of interscalene block, with an incidence of up to 100%. Mechanism of palsy is thought to be related to spread of local anaesthetic anterior to the anterior scalene muscle. We hypothesize that by injecting saline in this anatomical location prior to performing an i...

Impact of an Educational Tool on Quality of Life and Anxiety in Parents of Children With Nut Allergy
The number of young children with food allergy, in particular with nut allergy, is increasing worldwide. A diagnosis of nut allergy can cause much anxiety in parents. They worry about their child being exposed to nuts in foods when outside the home. This anxiety can lead to these young children being restricted from ta...
Over 4% of children in Ireland have a food allergy. Many studies report that parents and children with food allergy have a decreased quality of life (QOL). However maternal anxiety and parental overprotection even in the absence of FA can lead to childhood anxiety. Children with FA are at risk of exclusion from social ...

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of bendamustine and bortezomib in patients with indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia is safe and tolerable.
Bendamustin and bortezomib have been shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). Both compounds appear not to be cross-resistant with prior therapy. Therefore, it is of interest to combine bendamustine and bortezomib in this patie...

Preoperative Lymph Node Staging With EBUS-TBNA in Clinical N0 Non Small-cell Lung Cancer
The introduction of modern staging systems has increased the detection of small peripheral lung cancers at an early stage [1]. Stage I non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) are confined to the lung without lymph node involvement, and surgical resection is currently considered the standard therapeutic approach.~Nodal sta...

Microendoscopic Discectomy Vs Transforaminal Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy Vs Open Discectomy
In our study, a multicenter randomized controlled,single blind trial will be performed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of these three procedures for the treatment of symptomatic lumbar disc herniation.
Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is one of the most common diseases in the department of orthopedics, which produced medical and economic burdens to families and society. In spite, the majority of the patients with disc herniation can be relieved or even cured via conservative treatment; there are still a considerable numb...
