Some symptoms, like freezing of gait (FOG), do not respond to medications typically used to treat PD. Current surgical procedures used to alleviate PD symptoms also do not always improve FOG. Since many traditional therapies have failed for the treatment of FOG, researchers have proposed the use of newer treatments. Recent research in animal models and clinical human data using Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) has produced promising results, specifically showing improvement in FOG with the use of SCS in patients with PD.
The purpose of this study is to explore the long-term motor and non-motor effects of SCS in PD patients after completing participation on H-49023. The investigators hypothesize that SCS significantly decreases FOG episodes in patients with PD.
1. Assess the long-term safety, tolerability and preliminary evidence of effectiveness of upper thoracic spinal cord stimulation for freezing of gait in Parkinson's (PD) patients.
2.

ARDS is a life-threatening condition in which fluid builds up in the lungs making breathing difficult.
In observational studies, only observations are made without participants receiving any advice or any changes to health care.
People who are admitted to ICU for serious illnesses, like ARDS, often experience new health problems during and after their ICU stays. These health problems that may include physical, mental, and/or emotional disorders, are called post-intensive care syndrome (PICS). Identifying these new health problems early can help people by timely treatments and care.
In this study, researchers want to identify any health problems that arise after ICU admission in people with ARDS in the United States (US). To do this, researchers will collect information on health problems, treatments, medicines, and healthcare visits in people with ARDS, 1 year before and after an ICU admission.
They will then look to see whether the health problems are in areas that have been described as the post intensive care syndrome (PICS).
In addition, they will measure healthcare related costs in the one year after admission and compare it to the one year prior to admission.
Researchers will also compare this information with data collected for people with pneumonia who did not require ICU admission. This will help them to identify any new health problems arising due to ICU stays.
The data will come from participants' medical claims information stored in the Optum Clinformatics Data Mart database from 2016 to 2022. The claims data will only be collected for people in the US.
Researchers will collect data from participants admitted to ICU for ARDS for a maximum of 1 year before and after their stay. conditions: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) conditions: Post Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) studyType: OBSERVATIONAL observationalModel: COHORT timePerspective: RETROSPECTIVE count: 140000 type: ESTIMATED name: An ICU admission and a temporally related ARDS diagnosis measure: Morbidity measure: Post ICU Syndrome-related morbidity measure: Incident morbidity measure: Post ICU Syndrome-related incident morbidity measure: Difference in prevalence rates pre versus post index hospitalization measure: Average total healthcare costs based on healthcare billing data in the one year post index ICU admission measure: Exploratory, descriptive difference in ranking of PICS domain comorbidity ratios observed for ARDS (ICU admissions) versus pneumonia (non ICU admissions). sex: ALL minimumAge: 18 Years stdAges: ADULT stdAges: OLDER_ADULT facility: Bayer city: Whippany state: New Jersey zip: 07981 country: United States lat: 40.82454 lon: -74.4171 hasResults: False

Accurate and reliable assessment of lung function is crucial in diagnosing and monitoring asthma. The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a non-invasive method that has gained attention in recent years as a valuable tool for evaluating respiratory mechanics in asthma.
FOT involves applying small amplitude oscillations at various frequencies to the respiratory system and measuring the resulting pressure and flow responses. These measurements provide valuable insights into the mechanical properties of the airways, including resistance, compliance, and reactance. FOT offers several advantages over traditional spirometry, such as its ability to assess peripheral airway function, sensitivity to small airway abnormalities, and ease of use, particularly in young children or individuals with severe airflow limitation. FOT also allows for assessment of respiratory mechanics in individuals who may struggle with performing spirometry manoeuvres.
However, it is unclear whether a change in breathing pattern in patients with obstructive lung disease impacts the assessment of a response to treatment utilising FOT.
Several studies have demonstrated a high prevalence of Breathing Pattern Disorders (BPDs) in individuals with asthma. These findings suggest that BPDs may be common in asthma and could contribute to the manifestation and severity of respiratory symptoms. Evidence suggests that BPDs can adversely affect pulmonary function in individuals with asthma. One study demonstrated that children with asthma and dysfunctional breathing exhibited significantly reduced forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) compared to asthmatics without BPD. This suggests that abnormal breathing patterns may contribute to airflow limitation in asthma, leading to decreased lung function.
We therefore wish to determine the impact of different breathing frequencies on parameters measured using FOT in patients diagnosed with asthma and concomitant obstructive lung function abnormality. conditions: Asthma studyType: OBSERVATIONAL observationalModel: COHORT timePerspective: PROSPECTIVE count: 65 type: ESTIMATED name: Forced Oscillation Test measure: Change in airway resistance at 5 Hertz (Hz) and 19Hz sex: ALL minimumAge: 18 Years maximumAge: 100 Years stdAges: ADULT stdAges: OLDER_ADULT hasResults: False

The management of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels is crucial, with subclinical hypothyroidism often defined by a TSH upper reference limit of 4 mU/L, and overt hypothyroidism by TSH levels above 10 mU/L and potentially low free thyroxine (FT4) levels. Levothyroxine (LT4) treatment is strongly advised for TSH levels above 10 mU/L, with the timing of intervention being critical during the first trimester for optimal fetal brain development.
Research shows that untreated maternal hypothyroidism can significantly impact the neuropsychological development of the child, affecting cognitive, verbal, and motor skills. Even subclinical maternal hypothyroidism has been associated with lower IQ and motor scores in children. Early pregnancy intervention is key, as treatment after the first trimester may not improve children's neurocognitive outcomes.
Regarding sensory and linguistic development, evidence is mixed, but recent studies suggest that maternal hypothyroidism can lead to expressive language delays. The Development Quotient (DQ) is used to assess cognitive and motor development in children, with the Griffiths Mental Development Scales II being a common tool.
This study aims to explore the effects of treated maternal hypothyroidism during pregnancy on children's neurodevelopment, focusing on learning and language. It includes 31 women diagnosed with hypothyroidism and a control group of 21 euthyroid women, along with their children. The study emphasizes the importance of early detection and treatment of maternal hypothyroidism for preventing adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes in offspring. Statistical analysis will be conducted using SPSS, with a focus on maternal-fetal outcomes and cognitive-neuropsychological outcomes, highlighting the significance of early intervention. conditions: Thyroid Dysfunction conditions: Pregnancy Related conditions: Language Development studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED interventionModel: PARALLEL primaryPurpose: DIAGNOSTIC masking: NONE count: 104 type: ESTIMATED name: Griffiths Scale measure: total development quotient measured using the Griffiths scale sex: ALL minimumAge: 2 Years maximumAge: 50 Years stdAges: CHILD stdAges: ADULT facility: Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A.
