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 purpose of this study is to determine if transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is effective in the treatment of chronic pelvic pain associated with endometriosis
The purpose of this study is to determine whether active stimulation of the affected hemisphere will be more effective than simulated current in treatment of stroke
Obesity is a chronic disease of increasing prevalence, being currently considered a global epidemic, including children, adolescents, adults and the elderly of different nationalities and ethnicities, socioeconomic levels, education levels. Non-pharmacological therapeutic interventions, such as physical exercise and fitness healthy eating strategies seem to be increasingly studied and recommended for healthy weight loss. In addition, therapies that can complement the effect of exercise and diet for reducing body weight are considerate important strategies. Thus, experimental evidence shows that the use of laser therapy combined with exercise swimming was effective in controlling the lipid profile, reducing the mass of adipose tissue, suggesting increased metabolic activity and changes in lipid metabolism. To investigate the effect of the use of therapeutic laser when associated to exercise like response to new therapy for weight loss and decrease of dyslipidemias levels.
Phase III clinical study for the evaluation of clinic and cardiologic effects of isosorbide mononitrate from the incidence of events (angina episodes). This is an open, comparative, monocentric trial. The hypothesis, regarding the number of angina episodes, to be tested are: - H0: μD = 0 ot H0: μAfter = μBefore - HA: μD ≠ 0 ot HA: μBefore ≠ μAfter
The objective of this study is evaluate the laser and ultrasound effect on pain and disability in women with non-specific chronic low back pain.
The vibration stimulation is regarded as a new method of training and therapy to change afferent parts and cortical projections, which are important for motor control. This study aims to check effects of different frequency parameters for electrical cortical potentials and electrical muscular potentials in healthy young adults. 80 volunteers will participate in the study, and they will be randomly subdivided in four groups for trials. The methodology consists of electroencephalographic and electromyographic assessment before and after 15-minute vibration application with a digital vibratory pad.
To the investigators knowledge there are no studies of Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation (TNS) for fibromyalgia. TNS may modify overlapping mood and fibromyalgia pain regulation circuitry. The investigators hypothesized that patients with fibromyalgia might experience a clinically significant reduction in daily pain if investigators were to administer TNS in a manner similar to experimental antidepressant protocols.
The study aims to analyze and compare the clinical effects of using inhaled budesonide or intravenous dexamethasone in the treatment of postextubation stridor on children admitted to the pediatric intensive care units at Hospital Municipal do M´Boi Mirim and Hospital Albert Einstein.
Lipodystrophies are part of a clinically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by loss (lipoatrophies) and / or accumulation of fat, which usually results in a change of normal tissue surface. Millions of plastic and reconstructive surgeries are performed annually to repair soft tissue defects due to trauma, tumor resection and congenital defects. Surgical options for lipoatrophy, the lipodystrophy type characterized by subcutaneous adipose tissue atrophy, include: Transfer of autologous fat, Dermis - fat graft, Skin flaps and Commercially available fillers. Currently, the most commonly filler agent used for the lipodystrophy treatment is polymethylmethacrylate, considered permanent and with a history of short- and medium-term adverse effects. Biocompatible and temporary filler agents such as hyaluronic acid, polylactic acid and collagen have been used for over 25 years for cosmetic purposes and in lipoatrophies. More recently, the use of autologous fibroblasts proved to be efficient solving acne scars and enabling dermis regeneration. Studies in mice showed that the combination of pre - adipocytes with a biomaterial is much more effective in tissue reconstitution than the injection of adipose tissue only, providing volume and also stimulating cell proliferation and differentiation with increased production of extracellular matrix. This project aims a phase I clinical trial of a filler agent, composed of mesenchymal stem cells derived from autologous adipose tissue associated with hyaluronic acid.
This study aims to demonstrate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of Shampoo PIOLIN ® in the treatment of human pediculosis. Will be treated 212 patients aged 2-60 years with the infestation, along with the people in your family life. All will be submitted to the dosing regimen recommended in the package insert. 100% of the sample shall be subjected to clinical evaluation through comb, pre and post treatment and monitored after thirty days for evaluation of safety and possible adverse effects that may arise related to any of the components of the formula. The efficacy study is active comparator, non-inferiority.
