Aim I. The primary aim of MASTER is to identify whether a potential relationship exists between an intervention of participant preferred music, when initiated within the first 24 hours following a left middle cerebral artery stroke, and a reduction in the following disabilities: Expressive aphasia,
Participants: Patients aged more than 18 years old who are scheduled to undergo thoracoscopic lobectomy well be enrolled in this trial. Participants will be randomly allocated to one of the two groups: (1) GDFT group and (2) restrictive fluid therapy group. Participants will be allocated in a 1:1
The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for responding to stressful situations with involuntary actions, which will increase the neuronal activity in order to maintain body homeostasis. Stress is one of the most common causes of migraines. When it occurs for a prolonged period, there will be
Depression is common and associated with considerable health disability. Traditional antidepressants mainly work by modulating monoamine levels in the synaptic cleft; however, the evidence that depression is caused by impaired serotonin or noradrenaline activity is weak and inconsistent, and indeed
Objective: Does music therapy improve mood, pain and patient satisfaction on adult inpatient neurological units? Is music therapy an acceptable and feasible intervention in an adult inpatient neurological unit based on patient, family, and care provider satisfaction measures?

Zolpidem is a hypnotic drug which at sub-sedative doses has been shown to improve both motor and cognitive deficits in stroke, dementia and Parkinson's. This has led to the hypothesis that low-dose zolpidem will be effective in early-stage Parkinson's, delaying the need for dopamine-replacement
Background:
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is of great value in supporting patients with severe cardiopulmonary failure, but the mortality rate is still high.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) and fluid overload (FO) are the leading causes of death in patients under Veno-arterial (VA) ECMO.
All patients who undergo open cardiac surgery for their congenital heart disease on the research period will be recruited consecutively and evaluated according to the study criteria. Parents or guardians were explained about the procedure. Agreement will be concluded by signing the informed consent.
Parkinson's disease is a disease caused by dopamine deficiency in the striatum resulting from the loss of dopaminergic neuronal cells in the cerebral substantia. It is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor symptoms including gait disturbance and balance instability. In the
In patients with acute neurologic injury such as subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), traumatic brain injury (TBI), subdural hematoma (SDH), and ischemic stroke, fever has been found to be an independent predictor of poor outcome including increased mortality rates, longer
Thermodilution cardiac output was measured in triplicate. Hemodynamic parameters were calculated according to standard formulas.Oxygen delivery index (IDO2) was calculated as arterial oxygen content multiplied by CI. Systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI) was calculated as the MAP minus right
Difficulty retrieving the right word to communicate a message is the most common complaint in healthy older adults and individuals with stroke-induced language impairment (i.e., aphasia). Novel word learning paradigms have been used to investigate a variety of behavioral and neuromodulatory
Background: Blood products and intravenous fluids are frequently used in the treatment of children who have undergone cardiac surgery in order to maintain hemodynamic stability. Children undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are among the greatest pediatric users of allogeneic
Patients meeting inclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study and randomized into one of the two group's propofol - P and isoflurane - I. Preoperative Glasgow coma scale (GCS) and computer tomography (CT) findings will be recorded. Intraoperatively peripheral intravenous line will be secured,
