Pharmacogenomic Modulators of Impaired Exercise Adaptation in Statin Users
Recruiting
HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) have beneficial effects (prevent stroke, heart attack) but also some bad ones (block some good effects of exercise). Individuals have genetic variations in proteins that metabolize/transport statins. The investigators hypothesize that these variations modulate the relationship between statin use and lack of benefit from exercise. The investigators will test this by having statin-users do supervised exercise for 6 weeks, measuring the cardiorespiratory fitne... Read More

LaserEn: SOLTIVE™ Thulium Laser Fiber En Bloc Resection of Bladder Tumors
Recruiting
Conventional monopolar or bipolar transurethral resection of bladder tumors is the most common method for resection of a bladder mass. En bloc resection has demonstrated success in the literature utilizing different techniques and lasers, including utilizing the Ho:YAG and Tm:YAG lasers. A recent metanalysis revealed several benefits to laser en bloc resection including less complications and lower recurrence rate.22 Subsequently, laser technology has also advanced with the development of a supe...
