Perioperative and Cardiac Surgery
Research activity includes anesthesia and myocardial protection in complex surgical care, with attention to oxygenation, cardiac function, and postoperative recovery in bariatric surgery and double valve surgery.
- Opioid-free anesthesia
- Cardioprotection
- Postoperative oxygenation
- Extracorporeal circulation
The sponsor also supports research on cardiac biomarkers and hemodynamic preservation in the surgical setting.
Metabolic and Endocrine Disorders
Clinical interest extends to obesity management and related thyroid dysfunction, with studies focused on body composition, weight reduction, and metabolic outcomes in adults with altered thyroid-stimulating hormone profiles.
- Obesity
- Subclinical hypothyroidism
- Body composition
- Diet and exercise interventions
Work in this area connects metabolic disease with endocrine regulation and lifestyle-based treatment strategies.
Hepatic Injury and Drug-Induced Liver Disease
The sponsor funds research on hepatotoxicity, particularly drug-induced liver injury, with emphasis on clinical recovery, safety, and tolerability in patients affected by acute liver damage.
- Hepatotoxicity
- Drug-induced liver injury
- Prednisone
- Liver function tests
This area reflects a strong focus on hepatic inflammation and treatment of idiosyncratic liver toxicity.
Regenerative Medicine and Pelvic Floor Disorders
Research includes cell-based therapy for faecal incontinence, with interest in tissue repair, symptom control, and functional improvement in pelvic floor conditions.
- Mesenchymal stem cells
- Adipose tissue-derived cells
- Faecal incontinence
- Regenerative treatment
The work also addresses local tissue regeneration and restoration of continence-related function.
Neurology and Allergy and Immunology
The sponsor is active in chronic post-stroke aphasia and in food allergy research involving sensitization to profilin and lipid transfer proteins, including plant-based food allergy and vegetable allergy.
- Post-stroke aphasia
- Omalizumab
- Profilin sensitization
- LTP-mediated allergy
These studies span language rehabilitation and allergic disease, with attention to persistent symptoms and immunologic reactivity.
