There are about 13446 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Belgium. 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 evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a pneumococcal 21-valent conjugate vaccine (V116) in persons living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), for the prevention of pneumococcal disease caused by the serotypes in the vaccine.
The purpose of this study is to assess the rate and extent of absorption of a single oral dose of macitentan given as 2 test formulations compared to the reference formulation under fed conditions in healthy adult participants.
The study proposes to measure the effect of resitance training (RT) (3/7 method) on biological markers of muscle hypertrophy in a cardiac population. 3/7 method consisting of five sets of an increasing number of repetitions (3 to 7) during successive sets and brief inter-set intervals (15 s). This method is compare to 3X9 method, 3 series of 9 repetitions with inter-set (1min).The training exercise consisted of contraction on machine (leg press, triceps press, leg curl, traction, leg extension) with load of ~ 70% of one repetition maximal (1RM). Before these trainings all subject perform HIIT on bicycles (2 min high intensity (80% Wmax) and 2 min low intensity (50% Wmax) during 30 minutes. The investigators collect blood sample before exercice, after HIIT and after RT. It is randomized cross-over study.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of aticaprant on QT/ QT interval corrected for heart rate (HR) (QTc) intervals and electrocardiogram (ECG) morphology at therapeutic and supratherapeutic exposures in healthy adult participants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the SpO2 accuracy performance of the Sunrise Sensor 2 placed at the tip of the chin during non-motion conditions over the range of 70-100% by comparison to SaO2 values determined from arterial blood sample specimen analyzed by a CO-oximeter. Testing is conducted under normal office environment conditions. It is expected that the Accuracy Root Mean Square (ARMS) performance of the oximetry system will meet the required specification of ARMS of 3.5% or less allowed for reflectance technology in non-motion conditions for the range of 70-100% SaO2. A secondary goal is to evaluate the pulse rate performance simultaneously collected over the SpO2 range covered.
This study aims to investigate the mediating role of rumination in the relationship between perfectionism and psychological distress, by proposing a cognitive-behavioral intervention targeting rumination. This intervention aims at decreasing - or even neutralizing - the effect of the mediator and then examining how this decrease impacts the relationship between perfectionism and psychological distress. A randomized, concurrent, multiple-baseline single-case design will be applied.
The goal of the proposed study design is to develop and gather validity evidence of a theoretical test about cognitive skills which are important when performing Chest Tube Insertion (CTI). This study consists of two parts: - The development of the theoretical test and its items. The test content will be based on a broad literature search, and on semi-structured interviews with content experts. - The subsequent collection of validity evidence for this theoretical test and final selection of the test items, by testing groups that differ based on their expertise. The item analysis and observed difference in mean score between the groups will provide the validity evidence.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the main cause of pain and disability in elderly. For knee OA, a total knee replacement (TKR) is an effective surgical treatment, and the majority of patients report substantial pain relief and functional improvement following surgery. However, 20-40% of patients undergoing TKR are dissatisfied with postsurgical outcome. Even after revision, some patients keep complaining of persisting pain. In this study, the investigators will examine putative prognostic factors on the basis of the biopsychosocial model. Besides several psychological factors (measured with questionnaires), the investigators will assess structural impairments (such as radiographic severity of OA), functional impairments (muscle weakness and proprioceptive deficits), anesthetic procedures, immediate postoperative pain management, metabolic factors (body composition and hemoglobin A1c), inflammatory factors (C-Reactive Protein) and the investigators also will examine the role of altered central pain processing (CPP) (primary and secondary mechanical hyperalgesia, mechanical temporal summation, thermal primary and secondary hyperalgesia, endogenous pain modulation). With a longitudinal study design, this study will explore which factors are predictive of poor outcome in knee OA patients after TKR. Moreover, the interrelationship between CPP, structural, functional, metabolic, inflammatory and psychological factors, and the clinical expression of knee OA (pain, symptoms, physical performance and quality of life) will be investigated. Further research on the role of the aforementioned putative prognostic factors on postsurgical outcome could contribute to better management of these patients, since these factors may be particularly important for patient-tailored treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the single-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) and bioequivalence of Darunavir (DRV) in the presence of Cobicistat (COBI) when administered as a DRV/COBI fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet dispersed in water compared to the co-administration of the separate available formulations (DRV suspension and COBI tablet) under fed conditions in healthy participants.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the distribution of lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) levels among participants with a history of ASCVD as defined by their medical history and is 2-fold: - Evaluate the distribution of Lp(a) value in the overall participants with documented history of ASCVD - Evaluate the distribution of Lp(a) value in participants with documented history of ASCVD by demographics and regions
