A Discrete Choice Experiment Pilot Study: Understanding Patient Preferences for In-centre Hemodialysis
DownloadFall 2021
Background: End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is the failure of functioning kidneys such that they no longer have the capacity to sustain life without intervention. While the incidence of ESKD has remained generally stable across all ages of Canadians since 2000, the prevalence of ESKD has been...

A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial of Intravenous N-acetyl Cysteine in Patients Undergoing Pharmaco-invasive Reperfusion Early After an ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
DownloadFall 2023
Background: N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) effectively breaks down arterial thrombi in animal models and activates cardioprotective cellular pathways in STEMI models. Our study aimed to conduct a pilot trial to translate the beneficial effects of intravenous NAC observed in vascular occlusion models...
