NCT01157286
The investigators intend to study the prevalence of obstructive apnea in patients submitted to partial laryngectomy by larynx cancer. Volunteers will be evaluated using polissonografy. We will try to correlate the residual glotic area with the number of apneas per hour.
NCT02948582
The study assessed the safety and ability of an orally inhaled medicine \[i.e., Glycopyrrolate Inhalation Solution = GIS\] to improve airflow in the lungs when delivered using an eFlow nebulizer in 42 patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Each patient randomly received several, single doses of GIS, or placebo, separated by approximately 1 to 2 weeks. After the dose was given, lung airflow was measured over 24 hours and blood was collected to measure how much GIS was in the bloodstream. The study was conducted to find the once-a- day GIS dose that produced the highest improvement in lung airflow using the eFlow nebulizer.
NCT00854334
Rationale: Obesity is an increasing childhood epidemic in Canada. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a complication of obesity which causes cardiovascular disease, reduced quality of life, and premature death. While the complex interactions between obesity and OSA are not entirely clear, we hypothesize that these conditions may compound each other by: 1. decreasing physical activity and total energy expenditure by reducing both non-exercise physical pursuits (NEAT- non-exercise activity thermogenesis) and purposeful physical activity. 2. alterations in the secretion of appetite-controlling hormones, which may lead to increases in energy intake. Objective: To determine whether the presence of both obesity and OSA in children is associated with a decrease in physical activity and alterations in appetite-regulating hormones greater than those seen in either condition alone or compared to controls. Methods: Comparison of children 10-17 years with obesity and OSA, obesity alone, OSA alone and neither condition, for the following outcomes: (1) NEAT (kcal/day) (2) Physical activity behavior, appetite regulating hormone profile and self-report appetite assessment. Unique Aspects: This study combines expertise in sleep medicine, exercise physiology and obesity. Conclusions from this study will better characterize this high-risk clinical population so that innovative strategies targeting improvements in lifestyle behaviors can be developed.
