Primary Organoid Models and Combined Nucleic Acids Therapeutics for Anti-HPV Treatments
The International Agency for Cancer Research of World Health Organization (WHO) classified a dozen of HPV related high-risk cancer types, and recognized cervical cancer as the most common HPV-related disease. HPV 16 and 18 are responsible for 70% of cervical cancers. Due to the few symptoms of cervical cancer, women …

Targeting Risk Factors for Diabetes in Subjects With Normal Blood Cholesterol Using Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Every 3 minutes a new case of diabetes is diagnosed in Canada, mostly type 2 diabetes (T2D) increasing the risk for heart disease. T2D and heart disease share many common risk factors such as aging, obesity and unhealthy lifestyle. Paradoxically however, while lowering blood LDL, commonly known as "bad cholesterol", …

Integrative Study of Physiological Changes Induced by a 5-Day Dry Immersion on 20 Healthy Female Volunteers (DI5-Women)
Dry immersion involves immersing the subject in water covered with an elastic waterproof fabric. As a result, the immersed subject, who is freely suspended in the water mass, remains dry. Within a relatively short duration, the model can faithfully reproduce most physiological effects of actual microgravity, including centralization of body …

A Home-based Physical Activity Programme for Patients With Advanced Interstitial Lung Diseases (iLiFE)
Thus, it is urgent to develop innovative models of PA, closer to patients and adjusted to the patients' routines, to engage and change patients' physical activity levels, enhancing HRQoL. iLiFE might be promising as it focuses on establishing new behaviours, within selected contexts to stimulate home-based PA. Therefore, iLiFE will …

Comparison and Clinical Utility of the Portable Pressure Measuring Device for Garment Pressure Measurement on Hypertrophic Scar by Burn Injury During Compression Therapy
The investigators developed a portable pressure measuring device using silicon piezoresistive pressure sensors. As PicoPress is the most accurate (i.e., lowest variation and error) manometric sensor for pressure measurement, the investigators used it to compare and examine the accuracy of the proposed device regarding in vitro pressure measurements.

Analyse of Tumour and Constitutional DNA for the Study of the Determinism in Child Neoplasia
Tumor analysis will include whole exome analysis and transcriptome for the identification of therapeutic target and contribute to confirm potential link between constitutive mutations and tumor phenotype (such as loss of expression, loss of heterozygosity). Perspectives. This pediatric oncology study proposing a global approach integrating trio-based whole exome sequencing, somatic …

Lung Ultrasound Assessment of Fluid Overload in Haemodialysis Patients (EP8SH)
Echocardiography allows an accurate assessment of blood volume status by simultaneous studying left ventricular filling pressures, systolic pulmonary artery pressure and the diameter of the inferior vena cava. Lung ultrasound analyses the B-lines defined as artefactual images resulting from contact between air in "alveoli" and water in "septa". It can …

Physiological Changes Induced Through MEP Conditioning in People With SCI
The study team is currently recruiting volunteers who are interested in participating in a brain-spinal cord-muscle response training study that aims to better understand the changes that take place in the nervous system as a result of this type of training. After spinal cord injury, brain-to-muscle connections are often interrupted. …
