There are about 6915 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Austria. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
This study will look at how participants' daily life is affected by their heart failure. The study will also look at the change in participants' body weight. This study will compare the effect of semaglutide (a new medicine) compared to "dummy" medicine on body weight and heart failure symptoms. Participants will either get semaglutide or "dummy" medicine, which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will need to take 1 injection once a week. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach area, thigh or upper arm. During the study participants will have talks with the study staff about healthy lifestyle and physical activity. The study will last for about 59 weeks, that is a little more than 1 year. Participants will have 12 clinic visits with the study doctor. - At 6 of the visits participants will have blood samples taken. - At 5 of the visits participants will be asked to fill in a questionnaire - At 4 of the visits participants will have to do a 6-minute walking test - At 3 of the visits participants will have a test to check the heart. - participants will have their eyes checked before or at the start of the study and at the end of the study Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
This is an international, cross-sectional and descriptive study that aims to investigate differences in patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) and that aims to explore the profile and healthcare needs of adults with congenital heart diseases.
Vedolizumab is a medicine that helps to reduce symptoms of IBD and the associated inflammation in the digestive system for participants with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. In this study, participants with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease will be treated with vedolizumab according to their clinic's standard practice. Participants will receive vedolizumab as either an infusion or an injection just under the skin (subcutaneous). The main aim of the study is to observe real-world treatment patterns in participants treated with vedolizumab. The study sponsor will not be involved in how participants are treated but will provide instructions on how the clinics will record what happens during the study.
Background: In idiopathic Parkinson's disease, 50% of patients develop in the course of the disease a dysphagia and aspiration pneumonia is the leading cause of death in all parkinsonian syndromes . Dysphagia can negatively impact on the course of Parkinson's disease due to complications such as aspiration pneumonia, malnutrition, inadequate drug action, it causes a deterioration in quality of life and leads to an increase in health care costs of more than 10% Therefore, it is very important to detect subclinical dysphagia in time in Parkinson's disease and to initiate a targeted swallowing therapy. In the Neurological Rehabilitation Center Rosenhügel, patients with Parkinson's disease participate in the Parkinson rehabilitation pathway during their rehabilitation program. A part of the Parkinson rehabilitation pathway is the dysphagia pathway. It includes a clinical swallowing examination, an instrumental assessment of swallowing, performed by a fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) and a dysphagia training. Because of the serious clinical consequences of dysphagia, the investigators decided to further evaluate the prevalence of subclinical and clinical dysphagia in Parkinson's disease and to assess the efficacy of the NRZ dysphagia pathway. Our goal is to detect and classify all Parkinson's disease patients with dysphagia and to prevent the complications of dysphagia by an early therapeutic intervention. Objectives Primary objective: Evaluation of prevalence of dysphagia in Parkinson's disease Secondary objective: Evaluation of the impact of the NRZ dysphagia pathway on the severity of dysphagia through vocal training or dysphagia training Methods A prospective cohort study will be conducted for 24 months. All patients with the diagnosis of a Parkinson's disease, who are treated as inpatients in the Neurological Rehabilitation Center Rosenhügel from 5/2020 till 5/2022 and have signed an informed consent form will be enrolled in the study. The patients will be examined for dysphagia by a clinical swallowing examination, by a FEES and by measuring the swallowing related quality of life before and after dysphagia training. Intervention A dysphagia training, which consists of a biofeedback therapy and a swallow training or a voice training. The intervention lasts 3 weeks, by extended stay it lasts 5 or 7 weeks.
A Multicenter, Evaluator-Blinded, No-Treatment Control Design Clinical Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of YVOIRE Y-Solution 720 Injected for Jawline Contouring
A retrospective review of medical charts of patients having undergone vitrectomy with ILM Peeling and ILM flap technique for macular hole repair.
Comparison of saypha Volume Lidocaine from 2 different manufacturing locations in correcting moderate to sever nasolabial folds
The primary aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of the intracameral application of Mydrane® (standardized combination of Tropicamide 0.02%, Phenylephrine 0.31% and Lidocaine 1%) with the preoperative topical application (Tropicamide 0.5% and Phenylephrine 10%). To evaluate the steadiness of the dilating effect on the pupil, the ratio of eyes without necessity for further pupil dilating procedures to perform the capsulorhexis is assessed.
This is a clinical study in children and adolescents (5-17 years) with allergy to pollen from birch (or related trees). It compares the tree SLIT-tablet with placebo in relieving rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms during the birch/tree pollen season based on the average allergic rhinoconjunctivitis daily total combined score. The study will also collect health-related quality of life information in the groups treated with the tree SLIT-tablet or with placebo during the pollen season. The trial medication used is already approved to treat allergic rhinitis caused by birch/tree pollen in adults in several countries?.
IgE-associated allergy is a hypersensitivity disease affecting more than 40% of the population in industrialised countries. Recently the kinetics of change of clinical and immunological parameters (e.g. nasal blockage and cytokine profiles) in response to allergen exposure have been described. Additionally through recent placebo controlled studies it has become clear that the response of certain cytokines can not only be triggered by allergen exposure but also mechanically e.g through the insertion of nasal swabs for collection of cytokines. However it is not clear to what extent the mechanically triggered cytokine responses may differ between healthy, allergic and asthmatic patients who have been shown to have different cytokine profiles in their nasal secretions and varying impairment of their respiratory epithelium. As collection devices for nasal secretions are frequently used in clinical studies, the investigators aim to assess the impact of mechanical stimulation by frequent cytokine sampling on the cytokine profile.
