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 assess the safety and effectiveness of treatment with once daily oral administration of dexlansoprazole delayed-release capsules in adolescents with erosive esophagitis (EE) and for maintenance of healed EE and relief of heartburn.
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and effectiveness of once daily oral administration of dexlansoprazole delayed-release capsules in adolescent participants with symptomatic non-erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immediately clinic and ultramicroscopic myocardial cellular ischemia and reperfusion to replace of the mitral valve using arrested heart versus on-pump empty beating heart surgical techniques.
The study was done to: - test a strategy of using a resistance test to choose anti-HIV drugs - see how well combinations of new anti-HIV drugs work to lower HIV infection - see if taking new anti-HIV drugs together is safe and tolerable - see if text messages improve people's anti-HIV drug-taking behavior (only at sites participating in the adherence study) - in people taking certain combinations of anti-HIV drugs with an anti-TB drug, compare how these drugs act in the body - to see how people do after they stop having frequent clinic visits as part of a research study
The propose of this study is to identification of a group of specific amplitude-modulated frequencies of low intensity electromagnetic fields that is associated with biofeedback upon exposure to in patients with hepatitis B carries with or without hepatocellular carcinoma.
For many years researchers have been documented that the shoulder of the throwing athlete acquires a increase in external rotation of the dominant limb compared to the contralateral side.This fact is followed with a loss of the internal rotation of the shoulder, which is related with a higher rate of injuries in this joint and it´s known as Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficit (GIRD). Among the approaches for this condition the literature is inconclusive due to the low methodological quality of clinical trials made,however, the manual therapy has been used with success to relief the pain and restore the range of motion. The purpose of this study is to analyse the effectiveness of a mobilization with movement technique to improve the internal rotation of the shoulder in throwing athletes with GIRD. It will be a randomized controlled trial with the CONSORT bases with 40 participants that will be divided into two groups: - Control group that will be submitted for an evaluation of shoulder range of motion (internal/external rotation)of both limbs, upper limb active movements to warm-up (five minutes), posterior capsule stretching (Cross-body stretch for 3 sets of 30 seconds) and revaluation immediately post-intervention and four weeks post-intervention. - Mobilization group that will be submitted for an evaluation of shoulder range of motion (internal/external rotation)of both limbs, upper limb active movements to warm-up(five minutes), posterior capsule stretching (Cross-body stretch for 3 sets of 30 seconds) plus a mobilization with movement technique to improve internal rotation of the dominant shoulder (three sets of 10 repetitions)and revaluation immediately post-intervention and four weeks post-intervention. To evaluate the range of movement it will be use a standard goniometer with an attached customizes bubble inclinometer to ensure proper perpendicular alignment of the goniometer to the ground. The investigators hypothesis is that both group will have improvements in the internal rotation of the dominant shoulder, however, the mobilization group will have a statistically significant difference compared to control group immediately post-intervention. Four weeks post-intervention this difference will equalize, because of the only intervention applied. Results will be expressed as hazard ratios (HR) with their respective confidence intervals at 95% and adopting α = 0.05. All analyzes will be performed by SPSS version 17.0
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of belimumab in adult patients with active lupus nephritis.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of gingival fissures according to the type of brush used, soft and medium.
This study examines randomized triple-blind clinical trial and the efficacy of paraspinous anesthetic block on the treatment of chronic pelvic pain in patients non-responsive to pharmacological management. Sixty patients will be randomly divided and allocated into group intervention (paraspinous anesthetic block) and control (placebo procedure in subcutaneous tissue).
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is commonly associated with factors that increase cardiovascular risk, including Metabolic Syndrome (MS). There is a lack of well-controlled clinical studies investigating the independent effects of OSA in the development of cardiovascular disease, especially evaluating jointly mechanisms involved in these disorders such as inflammatory response, oxidative stress and vascular changes. The investigators hypothesized that in the absence of MetS, the mechanisms involved on cardiovascular consequences in OSA patients would be less important. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of OSA in the absence of MS, on inflammatory, oxidative stress and vascular markers; to verify the influence of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) on the same parameters; and additionally verify the effects of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP)in theses parameters.
