NCT ID: NCT00521443 Completed - Cryopreservation Clinical Trials

Cryosurvival of Embryos From Dysmorphic Oocytes

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Various morphological abnormalities of human oocytes were reported to detrimentally affect embryo development. We observed development of frozen thawed embryos derived from oocytes with normal or abnormal morphological features to the blastocyst stage. Cytoplasmic abnormalities of the oocytes were found to negatively affect cryosurvival potential of the embryos.

NCT ID: NCT00521573 Completed - Clinical trials for Heart Transplantation

Effects of Chocolate on Coronary Vasomotion in Patients After Heart Transplantation

Start date: n/a
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the present study is to investigate whether the ingestion of a flavonoid-rich dark chocolate compared to flavonoid-free placebo chocolate will improve coronary vasomotion in heart transplanted patients.

NCT ID: NCT00522158 Completed - Clinical trials for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Effects of Achieving Very Low LDL-Cholesterol After Treatment With Statins on Steroidogenesis and Cognition

Start date: n/a
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

We aimed to compare the effect of achieving an LDL-cholesterol <70 vs an LDL-cholesterol <100 mg/dL with simvastatin or atorvastatin on adrenal and testicular steroidogenesis, and cognition in diabetic patients.

NCT ID: NCT00522470 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

Effects of Rosiglitazone on Serum Ghrelin and Peptide YY Levels

Start date: n/a
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

We aimed to evaluate the effects of rosiglitazone on serum ghrelin and peptide yy levels in diabetic women.

NCT ID: NCT00523822 Completed - Clinical trials for Musculoskeletal Diseases

Sacroiliac Orthopedic Blocking and Cervical Spine Function

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study seeks to determine if the correction of a sacroiliac lesion can produce a functional change in cervical spine. Reduction of a sacroiliac joint lesion may alter cervical spine function.

NCT ID: NCT00525369 Completed - Clinical trials for Sepsis, Septic Shock

IL 6 Measurement Using a New Densitometric Bedside (POC) Test

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

In a equivalence analysis, we determined whether IL-6 can be assessed using a new densitometric point-of-care (POC) assay (turn-around -time: 20 minutes).IL-6 measurements were compared to test results obtained with conventional ELISA analysis

NCT ID: NCT00526539 Completed - Osteoarthritis Clinical Trials

Is There Increased Polyethylene Wear and Increased Periprosthetic Bone Loss in Femur in Reverse Hybrid Technique Compared With Conventional Cemented Technique in Total Hip Replacement?

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Total hip replacement is a very cost effective procedure to enhance life quality in a group of patients. In the period 2000-2004 7-8000 procedures were preformed, 13% were revisions (1). Historically, many different principles have been used from the first resurfacings to cemented and uncemented total hip replacements as we know them today. In 2000, 28 different femoral stems and 26 different acetabular components were in regular use in Norway. There are several well-documented cemented acetabular components, but no such uncemented cup. On the femoral side there are several well-documented stems both cemented and uncemented. (2). From the late 1990`s a reverse hybrid (uncemented stem and cemented cup) is being more frequently used. In 2004 a total of 276 reverse hybrid hips were done and the trend is increasing. (1). This technique is solely based on experience and the fact that one combines the better of two principles (cemented and uncemented). There is no scientific evidence that this technique is as good or better than a cemented THR. One of the potential problems with hydroxyapatite coated components is that it is suspected that it may increase wear due to the particle theory. (3,4). There are no prospective randomised controlled RSA and DXA studies that conclude on this matter. This is such a study and our hypothesis is that there is no difference in wear or osteolysis between the methods.

NCT ID: NCT00528216 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Study of Three Capsaicin Dermal Liquid Formulations on Epidermal Nerve Fiber Immunostaining and Sensory Function

Start date: n/a
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate potential changes in epidermal nerve fiber immunostaining (ENFI) and sensory nerve function in healthy normal volunteers following single applications of three different investigational topical Capsaicin Dermal Liquids (10% w/v trans capsaicin), and a comparable control (propylene glycol). In addition, the pain and tolerability of the application of each formulation will also be assessed. Data from this clinical study may be used to select a formulation for further clinical evaluation.

NCT ID: NCT00530595 Completed - Clinical trials for Cardiovascular Disease

Effects of Angiotensin Receptor Antagonist on Prohibiting Cardiovascular Events on Hemodialysis Patients

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of mortality in patients on hemodialysis therapy (HD), accounting for 30 to 50% of all death. Although angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) are effective for patients with diabetes and chronic kidney disease in reducing or preventing cardiovascular diseases, there has been no decisive study that demonstrated treatment with ARBs is effective in patients on HD.

Phase II Dose-Finding Study of SK-0403 With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Start date: n/a
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of SK-0403 in patients with Type2 Diabetes Mellitus
