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 aim of this study was to analyse the acute and chronic effects of two aerobic-training models performed in water and on dry land on cardiorespiratory, functional, metabolic, hormonal and quality-of-life parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of a stretching protocol for the pectoralis minor muscle on its resting length and on the 3D kinematics of the scapula during arm flexion in asymptomatic subjects and patients with impingement syndrome with shortened pectoralis minor.
This trial investigates the immunogenicity of FE 999049 in repeated cycles.
This trial investigates the effects of FE 999049 compared to GONAL-F.
Radical prostatectomy has become the gold standard treatment for prostate cancer. Regarding of morbidity of access on open retropubic radical prostatectomy a lot of centers around the world start to develop laparoscopic and robotic approach over the past years. The problems regarding this techniques is that the pure laparoscopic prostatectomy shows a steep learning curve with a high initial complication rate, and the use of robotic assistance surgery despite of lower learning curve is associated with higher surgical supply and operative room costs. These costs may have a significant impact on overall cost of prostate cancer care especially in Brazil. In Brazil, the open route for radical prostatectomy is still the most frequent approach. One of the disadvantages of open prostatectomy from the other surgeries is the longest hospital stay. However, the question of what length of stay after this operation is optimal and necessary is unresolved. In this trial the investigators have compared a randomized group of patients that had discharged on postoperative day 2, 1 and same day surgery. The investigators had intent to evaluate the feasibility of ambulatory open radical prostatectomy (patient discharge in the same day of surgery - average 12 hours of hospitalization) maintaining patient satisfaction and safety.
This project seeks to demonstrate the clinical value of the personalised diagnosis of the endometrial factor in infertility.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether electroacupuncture is effective in the treatment of chronic tension-type headache, measured by Headache Impact Test, Visual Analogue Scale and biomarkers.
This study aims to verify if patients with nerve-related leg pain benefits from neurodynamic treatment over two weeks.
Question: Does manual diaphragm release change kinematics and respiratory function of elderly subjects? Design: Randomized controlled trial with concealed allocation and double-blinding. Participants: 17 volunteers over 60 years old randomized into two groups: 09 in the Control Group (CG) and 08 in the Intervention Group (IG). Intervention: The manual diaphragm release technique was used on the IG, in two sets of ten deep breaths, with a one minute interval between them. The CG underwent a sham protocol (light touch), with same sets and time of interval. Outcome measures: The groups were evaluated using spirometry, manovacuometry and optoelectronic plethysmography (OEP), in that order, before and immediately after the intervention.
The aim of this study is evaluate the clinical, hemodynamic and electrocardiographic responses during an inspiratory muscle training session during a single cardiopulmonary rehabilitation session program. An electrocardiogram will be continuously recorded and the heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) will be evaluated before, during and immediately after a single inspiratory muscle training (IMT) session, consisting of two series of 15 cycles, with one-minute intervals between sets and an initial load of at least 30% of the initial maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP).
