Chronic pain affects millions of people worldwide and can be difficult to treat because the biological mechanisms underlying pain are not yet fully understood. By gaining a better understanding of the human pain system, this research may help guide the development of more effective and personalised treatments for chronic pain in the future.\n\nThe study will investigate sensory neurons, which are specialised nerve cells that detect sensations such as touch, temperature, and injury. We will examine both how these nerve cells respond to stimulation and the genes they express. By linking the activity of individual nerve cells with their molecular characteristics, we hope to identify specific types of sensory neurons that may contribute to chronic pain conditions.\n\nTo achieve this, we will use a technique called microneurography. This involves inserting a very fine recording electrode into a peripheral nerve to measure the activity of individual nerve fibres directly in the body. These recordings will be performed in healthy volunteers and in patients. The information obtained will be combined with laboratory-based studies conducted by collaborators in Germany and France, allowing us to relate detailed biological findings to the experience of pain in humans.\n\nThe results of this research will provide a detailed map of the human sensory nervous system and improve our understanding of how pain-signalling neurons function in health and disease.

These cells can be damaged by a disease called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), where new abnormal blood vessels grow through the macula and leak fluid. This can affect vision. In some cases, wet AMD can also cause a bleed under the macula, known as a submacular haemorrhage (SMH), which can lead to marked and persistent loss of vision in the eye.\n\nThe current standard treatment for wet AMD is to give injections containing 'anti-VEGF' drugs into the eye. Anti-VEGF drugs reduce the leakage of fluid so that the macula can become dry again and sight can improve.\n\nAnti-VEGFs are also the current standard of care for SMH, mainly because there is no licensed treatment for the SMH itself (patients with SMH were excluded from most wet AMD studies).\n\nThe purpose of this study therefore is to compare two treatments:\n\n1.

It is commonly performed to treat adrenal tumours or conditions that cause excess hormone production. The adrenal glands produce important hormones, including cortisol and aldosterone, which help regulate blood pressure, metabolism and the body's response to stress.\n\nAfter adrenalectomy, some patients may develop adrenal insufficiency, a condition in which the body does not produce enough of these essential hormones. In severe cases, this can lead to an Addisonian (adrenal) crisis, a life-threatening emergency that can cause shock, organ failure and death if not treated promptly.\n\nThe risk of adrenal insufficiency after surgery depends largely on cortisol levels before the operation. In patients with Cushing's syndrome, where there is excessive cortisol production, the risk of adrenal insufficiency after adrenalectomy is almost 100%. For this reason, these patients routinely receive steroid replacement treatment after surgery to replace missing hormones and prevent adrenal crisis.\n\nFor other patients undergoing adrenalectomy, the best management approach is less clear. Patients with mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) have a moderate risk of adrenal insufficiency - around 50-65%. Patients with normal cortisol secretion (NCS) may also develop adrenal insufficiency because one adrenal gland has been removed, occurring in around 20-37% of cases.\n\nInternational medical guidelines currently disagree on how best to manage these patients after surgery. Some recommend measuring cortisol levels the morning after surgery and treating only if levels are low, while others recommend giving steroid treatment to all patients with mild cortisol excess. There is currently no clear guidance for patients with normal cortisol secretion.\n\nThis study will compare these management strategies to determine which approach best reduces the risk of adrenal insufficiency after adrenalectomy.

One reason for this shortage is that some usable livers from donors who are considered of high risk are being thrown away out of concern that they might not work well after transplantation due to a problem called ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI).\n\nThe discarded organs are mostly those coming from donors who have died due to cardiac arrest (called 'donation after circulatory death' or DCD), with only 27% of them being used in the UK. The quality of these DCD organs could be improved by changing how they are preserved after being removed from the donor. The most commonly used strategy is still to remove the livers and put them in an icebox ('static cold storage' or SCS). The alternative approaches, which are more complex and expensive, but that can also improve the quality of the DCD livers, involve using machines to pump fluids through the livers ('machine perfusion' or MP).\n\nThere are three MP methods being used in patients: 1) normothermic regional perfusion (NRP), which involves pumping the donor's blood through the liver after the donor has died but the liver is still in the donor's body; 2) normothermic machine perfusion (NMP), in which the liver is pumped with blood outside of the donor's body; and 3) hypothermic machine perfusion (HOPE), which is also used outside of the donor's body by pumping cold fluid into the liver. HOPE and NRP have been shown to improve how well DCD livers function after transplantation. NMP can also improve the quality of the DCD livers, but its main advantage is that it allows confirming that the donated liver functions well before proceeding with the transplant. Until now, there has not been a proper comparison of these methods, and the doctors do not understand well the mechanisms through which MP improves the quality of the DCD livers.\n\nThe iInvestigators plan to conduct a study where 36 DCD human livers will be split into three groups: SCS, NRP, and HOPE. After that, they will be put in NMP to confirm that they are good enough to be transplanted and to study the mechanisms through which NRP, SCS and HOPE work.",[389],"Liver Transplantation","2025-08-08",{"date":392,"type":39},"2025-08-13",{"date":394,"type":39},"2025-02-17",{"date":396,"type":23},"2026-05-31",{"name":45,"class":46},{"id":399,"slug":400,"hasResults":12,"nctId":401,"briefTitle":402,"officialTitle":402,"acronym":403,"eligibilityCriteria":404,"healthyVolunteers":18,"sex":19,"minAge":20,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":405,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":141,"phases":4,"briefSummary":407,"conditions":408,"keywords":412,"overallStatus":65,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":414,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":415,"startDateStruct":417,"completionDateStruct":419,"leadSponsor":421,"locationsCount":74},"100581825","prospective-ocular-imaging-for-intracranial-pressure-evaluation-100581825","NCT06855342","Prospective Ocular Imaging for Intracranial Pressure Evaluation","POICCP","Healthy controls:\n\nInclusion Criteria:\n\n1.

When this happens every day, it is called chronic breathlessness. Over 3 million people living with heart and lung disease have chronic breathlessness in the UK.\n\nBreathlessness is very difficult for patients themselves and their families, resulting in disability and feelings of fear, distress, and isolation. Due a to lack of supportive breathlessness services many patients frequently attend hospital Accident and Emergency (A\\&E) departments seeking help.\n\nGiven the on-going challenges faced by the National Health Service (NHS) in the United Kingdom, such as long waiting times, staff shortages, increased demand for services because of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an urgent need to develop new ways to support those living with chronic breathlessness. One potential solution is to offer support online, as it is estimated that in the UK, 7 out of every 10 people with chronic breathlessness are internet users.\n\nWith the help of patients and NIHR funding the research team lead by Dr Charles Reilly, developed an online breathlessness supportive website called SELF-BREATHE. SELF-BREATHE provides information and self-management tools such as breathing exercises, that patients can do at home themselves.\n\nSELF-BREATHE has been tested as part of its development. SELF-BREATHE is acceptable and valued by patients. But what is unknown is whether SELF-BREATHE improves patients' breathlessness and their life? This is the question this research seeks to answer.\n\nAims\n\n1. To test if using SELF-BREATHE for six-weeks improves patients' breathlessness, their quality of life and whether SELF-BREATHE should be offered within the NHS\n2. To see if patients opt to continue to use SELF-BREATHE after six-weeks and what benefits this may have for patients.\n\nMethods\n\nThe research team are undertaking a randomised controlled trial. For this, 246 people living with chronic breathlessness will be recruited in to this study. Each person will be randomly chosen by a computer to continue with their usual care or their usual care plus access to SELF-BREATHE. All study participants will complete questionnaires at the start of the study, thereafter at seven and twelve weeks after randomisation.\n\nThese questionnaires will ask patients about 1) their breathlessness and its effect on their life and 2) planned and unplanned hospital visits. At the end of the study, we will compare answers to these questionnaires between the two groups at seven and 12 weeks.\n\nThis will tell if SELF-BREATHE improved patients' breathlessness and reduced their need for unplanned hospital visits e.g., A\\&E attendances due to breathlessness.",[480,481,482,483,484,485,486,487],"Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease","Bronchiectasis","Interstitial Lung Disease","Lung Cancer","Asthma","Dyspnea","Fibrotic Lung Disease","Chronic Lung Disease","2025-06-10",{"date":490,"type":39},"2025-06-13",{"date":492,"type":39},"2024-07-04",{"date":494,"type":23},"2028-07",{"name":45,"class":46},{"id":497,"slug":498,"hasResults":12,"nctId":499,"briefTitle":500,"officialTitle":501,"acronym":502,"eligibilityCriteria":503,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":19,"minAge":20,"maxAge":504,"enrollmentInfo":505,"targetDuration":506,"studyType":141,"phases":4,"briefSummary":507,"conditions":508,"keywords":510,"overallStatus":65,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":515,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":516,"startDateStruct":518,"completionDateStruct":519,"leadSponsor":521,"locationsCount":74},"100586698","development-of-a-cough-control-questionnaire-ccq-100586698","NCT06918756","Development of a Cough Control Questionnaire (CCQ)","The Development and Validation of a Cough Control Questionnaire","CCQ","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adult patients aged 18 and over with acute and chronic cough (including refractory chronic cough and unexplained chronic cough) and able to read and write in English.
