About this study

Official title: The Specificity and Sensitivity of circMETTL9 Gene in Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury, Its Correlation With Cognitive Function and Disturbance of Consciousness, and Prognosis

Objective: The relevance of circMETTL9 to the degree of injury, disturbance of consciousness, cognitive function and prognosis in patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of circMETTL9 on the degree of injury, disturbance of consciousness, cognitive function and prognosis after TBI.

Read the detailed description
  1. Collect blood samples from patients with moderate to severe TBI and healthy people, and detect the expression of circMETTL9 by Real-time Quantitative PCR Detecting System(qPCR).Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of circMETTL9 in TBI patients.
  2. Using the Glasgow coma scale (GCS) and the coma recovery scale-revised (CRS-R) to assess the patient's disturbance of consciousness at 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 days after TBI, respectively, The cognitive function of patients was assessed with the revised Rachel los amigos scale-revised (RLAS-R), and the correlation of circMETTL9 with disturbance of consciousness and cognitive function in TBI patients was analyzed.
  3. Six months after TBI, the disability rating scale (DRS) and Glasgow outcome scale-extended (GOSE) were used to evaluate the prognosis of patients six months after discharge, and the correlation between circMETTL9 and prognosis was analyzed. sex.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT05484921
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
traumatic brain injury group(1) age 18-80 years, (2) admission due to isolated head injury, (3) unconsciousness at the time of injury. Isolated head trauma was defined as CT scan-confirmed brain injury without other major extracranial injuries, such as pelvis fractures, femur fractures, and severe invasive abdominal or thoracic injuries. Other exclusion criteria for patients were infection within the most recent month, previous head trauma, neurological diseases including ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, use of antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications, and other prior systemic diseases including uremia, liver cirrhosis, malignancy, chronic heart disease, and chronic lung disease.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The sensitivity and specificity of circMETTL9 in TBI patients were analyzed.

    rComparison of serum cirMETTL9 expression levels among the three groups. The results of qRT-PCR showed that, compared with the healthy control group, the serum cirMETTL9 expression levels in the moderate TBI group and the severe TBI group were significantly increased, and the serum cirMETTL9 expression level in the severe TBI group was significantly higher than that in the patients with severe TBI. In the moderate TBI group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).

    Measured: 2022-01-2023-12

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The correlation of circMETTL9 in blood samples of TBI patients with disturbance of consciousness and cognitive function in TBI patients was analyzed.

    Blood samples were collected from patients with moderate to severe TBI and healthy individuals, and the expression of circMETTL9 was detected by qPCR.

    Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of circMETTL9 in TBI patients.

    Measured: 2022-01-2023-12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury), run by Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact liu su, PhD (13814701181, 327202278@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The sensitivity and specificity of circMETTL9 in TBI patients were analyzed. (time frame: 2022-01-2023-12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Aug 2022.
