Filter by:This Stage II randomized, controlled, longitudinal trial seeks to assess the acceptability, feasibility, and effects of a driving decision aid use among geriatric patients and providers. This multi-site trial will (1) test the driving decision aid (DDA) in improving decision making and quality (knowledge, decision conflict, values concordance and behavior intent); and (2) determine its effects on specific subpopulations of older drivers (stratified for cognitive function, decisional capacity, and attitudinally readiness for a mobility transition). The overarching hypotheses are that the DDA will help older adults make high-quality decisions, which will mitigate the negative psychosocial impacts of driving reduction, and that optimal DDA use will target certain populations and settings.
In this study, investigators aimed to observe the examination findings, laboratory findings and drugs used in routine polyclinic controls of the participants using biological and targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) and the doses and side effects of these drugs. The aim of this registry is to evaluate the real-life data of participants receiving these medications. Analysis of treatment follow-up, drug changes, causes of change, treatment-related paradoxic / immune reactions, compliance with adult vaccination programs, nutritional profiles, presence of metabolic syndrome, fertility status, pregnancy outcomes, and vitamin D levels will be recorded in the outpatient clinic. Rheumatoid Arthritis Impact of Disease, Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease (RAID and PSAID indexes), Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI), drug compliance, central sensitization and fall risk will be evaluated with verbal evaluation forms performed at policlinic controls in patients with spondyloarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It is planned to conduct scientific analyzes and publish on various subjects from the recorded information on this registration system. Patients using biological and targeted synthetic DMARD treatments are closely monitored and evaluated in many ways due to the risk profiles and various characteristics of the drugs. With this registry system, it is aimed to evaluate the real-life data of the participants using these drugs. Real-life data are very valuable in monitoring the disease and the drugs. The study is observational and there is no expected risk since no intervention is planned.
To evaluate the fusion status of the hindfoot bones after receiving the ViviGen graft, an FDA approved cellular bone matrix. This is used in a population indicated for hindfoot arthrodesis as an alternative to an autograft.
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, controlled trial with two parallel arms. The aim of the study is to evaluate whether Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F combined with methotrexate (MTX) might be better than MTX alone for postmenopausal women with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
BERTHA study´s primary objective is to characterize Rheumatoid Arthritis-associated Interstitial Lung Disease (RA-ILD) progression and to define a combination of biomarkers, genetic and clinical variables capable of identifying patients at risk of RA-ILD progression
This study (contRAst 3 [202018: NCT04134728]) is a Phase 3, randomized, multicenter, double-blind study to assess the safety and efficacy of GSK3196165 in combination with conventional (cs) DMARD[s]) or the treatment of adult participants with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have had an inadequate response to biologic (b) DMARD[s]) and/or JAK inhibitors. The study will consist of a screening phase of up to 6 weeks followed by 24 week treatment phase in which participants will be randomized in ratio of 6:6:6:1:1:1 to GSK3196165 150 milligrams (mg) subcutaneously (SC) weekly,GSK3196165 90 mg SC weekly, sarilumab 200 mg SC every other week or placebo (three arms) respectively, all in combination with background csDMARD(s). At Week 12, participants in the three placebo arms will switch from placebo to active intervention (either GSK3196165 150 mg SC weekly, GSK3196165 90 mg SC weekly, or sarilumab 200 mg SC every other week). Participants who, in investigator's judgement will benefit from extended treatment with GSK3196165, may be included in the long-term extension study (contRAst X [209564: NCT04333147]). Any participant who does not transition into study 209564 will undergo a safety follow-up visit at Week 34 (corresponding to 12 weeks after the last potential dose of sarilumab, at Week 22).
Long-term Observational Study to Evaluation the Safety of FURESTEM-RA Inj(K0202)
Childhood arthritis is an important cause of pain for affected children and youth (adolescents). Many youth with arthritis also have trouble sleeping. They often struggle to sleep through the night, wake up earlier, and are sleepier during the day compared to healthy children. Our research group, among others, has shown a strong link between sleep and pain. The main purpose of this study is to assess the impact of changing sleeping patterns on pain, and disease activity, in teenagers with arthritis. We think that better sleep will directly lead to better health.
Osteochondral lesion of talus (OLT), osteoarthrosis and impingement/instability syndrome are most common ankle joint pathologies. This study analyses outcome after various different operative treatment of aforementioned pathologies. Investigators hypothesis is that patient characteristics, type of lesion and surgical technique affect the result of treatment. The investigators will compare subjective (questionnaire) and objective (clinical examination) status of patient before and after operation.
Researchers will include 83 rheumatoid arthritis patients (either early or established) diagnosed after 2010 ACR/EULAR criteria with bilateral hand arthritis aged 18 or above. Nerve block to the neural bundle of the 2nd and 3rd PIPs will be done to one hand (the dominant in half of the participants and the non-dominant in the remaining). The other hand will be used as a control and injected subcutaneously with saline. Half ml of Bupivacaine will be injected through a 27G needle at the level of the volar proximal digital crease of the 2nd and 3rd PIP. The needle will be directed alternatively toward the two pedicles on both sides. PIPs of the 2nd and 3rd fingers in both hands will be examined EULAR-OMERACT scoring system at 0, 2 weeks, and 2 months intervals. Visual analog scale (VAS) for each hand will be used at the same intervals. There are no certain conditions for medications and all the patients were using sDMARDS.
