There are about 10004 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Brazil. 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.
The treatment of bipolar disorders is always a challenge in daily practice. Mood stabilizers are partially effective in the treatment of depressive phase of the illness, although there are some reports relating to the antidepressant properties of these drugs. Other conventional methods (pharmacological) and non- conventional treatment are not effective or involve risks and side effects. Several studies with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) showed that magnetic stimulation daily over the left prefrontal cortex may improve the mood of patients. TMS is a noninvasive method of stimulating the brain. The instrument used nowadays in local research and application Clinical is a metallic coil formed in figure 8 (coil format 8). This instrument was capable of stimulating only surface areas of the brain, primarily the cerebral cortex, at depths of up to 3 inches below the scalp. From this angle, there is clearly a need for a means of producing magnetic fields which can reach deeper brain areas, such as those involved in mood disorders. TMS has little, if any effect in these brain areas. To this end, new coils, calls "H", that promote the stimulation of deep brain areas were developed in collaboration with the National Institute of Health (NIH) in the USA. This new coil - H1 that will be evaluated in this study has been tested for safety in NIH in 2003 by Dr. Abraham Zangen. Yet there are very few prospective clinical, randomized and controlled trials, on the effects of early and late in clinical-cognitive condition and safety of TMS with H1 coils in treating episodes of bipolar depression. The application of EMT with H1 coils can reach deepest regions of the brain and improve the clinical and cognitive condition of subjects with episodes of bipolar depression, and may be confirmed as a safe and virtually free of side effects. By an absence of treatment actually effective for bipolar depression, this study will show whether there are clinical and cognitive benefits of deep TMS with H1 coil in patients with bipolar depression.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term dosing with ALN-TTR02 (patisiran) in patients with transthyretin (TTR) mediated amyloidosis (ATTR).
Verifying the efficiency of motor training associated with visual and auditory cues on the balance, and postural anticipatory and compensatory adjustments of patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD), for prevent fall rate in people with PD. It is a single blinded, randomized clinical trial performed at Center of Research of the courses of Speech Therapy, Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy of São Paulo University.
Exposure to air pollution is associated with increase in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Controlled human exposure studies have demonstrated impaired vascular function and heart rate variability on healthy volunteers. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of reducting diesel exhaust inhalation on endothelial function, heart rate variability and cardiopulmonary stress testing in healthy volunteers and patients with chronic heart failure, by using a filter mask.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of patisiran (ALN-TTR02) in patients with transthyretin (TTR) mediated amyloidosis. An open-label, single-arm, long-term follow-up extension study NCT02510261 (ALN-TTR02-006) was initiated to provide participants who completed this study with continued patisiran-LNP (lipid nanoparticle) treatment.
The calcium containing 35% hydrogen peroxide gel employed in this study can be re-applied 2 days after the first bleaching session without increasing the bleaching-induced tooth sensitivity
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of this trial is to compare cardiovascular safety of insulin degludec versus insulin glargine in subjects with type 2 diabetes at high risk of cardiovascular events.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled trial.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of Whey Protein (WP) and Soy Protein (SP) nutritional supplements on nutritional status and disease activity in Crohn's disease patients.
Evaluate the long term efficacy and side effects of oxybutynin in the treatment of hyperhidrosis.
