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 in hospitalized adult participants infected with human metapneumovirus (hMPV - a virus closely related to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and has been identified as an important cause of acute respiratory infections, affecting all age groups) the dose-response relationship of multiple regimens of lumicitabine on antiviral activity based on nasal hMPV shedding using quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ozonated water on pain, edema and trismus after third molar removal. Patients were submitted to extraction of lower third molar under irrigation with ozonated water or doubly distilled water. Data were collected at baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after intervention.
The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of a protocol, pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT), applied in a group and at home for urinary incontinence (UI) in women. Probably, the group-applied PFMT protocol is more effective in women with UI than the home protocol.
Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is a infectious process of the female genitourinary tract, an important health issue due to the high incidence and high rate of recurrence of the infection. Therefore, new therapeutic modalities are sought with the capacity to minimize drug side effects and reduce cases of recurrence of the disease. The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical and microbiological response of the 401+/- 5nm blue light emitting diode (LED) in the treatment of women with bacterial vaginosis. The group of women with diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis will be submitted to the light therapy. These women will also be submitted to an evaluation and examination by a ginecologist before and after the therapy. There will also be an evaluation of the clinical condition and about the effects of the light through the questionnaire answered before and after participant's treatment. It's expected that the 41 +/- 5nm LED will destroy the VB demonstrated by laboratory examination and also improves the signs and results analyzed by the gynecologist and participants.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of adjuvant atezolizumab in combination with paclitaxel, followed by atezolizumab, dose-dense doxorubicin or epirubicin (investigator's choice), and cyclophosphamide, compared with paclitaxel followed by dose-dense doxorubicin or epirubicin (investigator's choice) and cyclophosphamide alone in patients with Stage II-III TNBC (Triple Negative Breast Cancer)
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of molecularly-guided therapy versus standard platinum-containing chemotherapy in participants with poor-prognosis cancer of unknown primary site (CUP; non-specific subset) who have achieved disease control after 3 cycles of first-line platinum based induction chemotherapy.
Chronic periodontitis is an infectious disease resulting in inflammation of the teeth support structures, progressive periodontal attachment loss and bone loss. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (TFDA) in multiple applications as an adjunct to surgical periodontal therapy in patients with generalized severe chronic periodontitis. A total of twenty patients will be submitted to this split-mouth trial, receiving initial periodontal basic nonsurgical treatment that is scaling and root planing. After the sites are indicated for surgical therapy, they receive surgical access therapy associated with scaling and root planing and TfdA using the treatment protocol during periods of 0, 7, 14 and 30 postoperative days, or only surgical access therapy associated with scaling and root planing. As protocol, TfdA will be used laser light source 660nm wavelength in combination with phenothiazine, a photosensitizer with 10 seconds of exposure per site during surgery and 60 seconds in other applications. All patients will be oral hygiene care and follow-up for 90 days. In the baseline period, basic post-therapy, 30 and 90 days after surgical therapy will be performed the clinical evaluation of plaque index, depth of probing pocket, level of clinical insertion relative and bleeding on probing, beyond the collection plate samples subgingival 40 for counting microbial species using the method of DNA-DNA hybridization checkerboard. For the same periods are also collected samples of gingival crevicular fluid for evaluating fluid volume (Periotron) and the levels of Interleukin 1 beta, Interleukin 10, MMP-8, tumor necrosis factor alpha, RANK-L and Osteoprotegerin (OPG). The data are statistically analyzed with the tests to the sample.
The safety of the patient using a nasoenteral tube depends on the constant evaluation of the nursing team. The most implemented strategies for safe practice are education interventions, however, seem insufficient to change behavior. Active methodologies may be more promising alternatives for the development of these competencies. The objective is evaluate the effect of an isolated education intervention and combined with a visual identity campaign on the safe practice in the use of nursing care to the patient in use nasoenteral tubes. The clinical trial will be carried out in 2017, in a university hospital. Two profiles of participants will be included in the study: the first one refers to the nursing technicians of the hospital areas, part of them will receive a set of interventions, and the second one refers to the patients in use nasoenteral tube, considering that the effect of intervention will be measured by assessing compliance with care routines.
A comparative study for the surgical treatment of vitiligo in which the same patient will receive in acromic and symmetric lesions of vitiligo dermabrasion with micro needling and on the other side dermabrasion with micro needling followed by the application of cell suspension (melanocytes and uncultured keratinocytes). These cells will be removed from the own patient through the skin of the scalp. After the surgical procedure, patients will be submitted to UVB-NB phototherapy sessions (twice a week) and evaluated for repigmentation of vitiligo lesions at 14 and 24 weeks of treatment.
The aim of this study is to valuate the effects of LED photobiomodulation on analgesia during labor.ight-emitting diode (LED) photobiomodulation is an effective and noninvasive alternative to pharmacological methods.n total, 60 women in labor admitted to a public maternity hospital will be selected for a randomized controlled trial. The participants will be randomized into two groups: intervention group [analgesia with LED therapy (n = 30)] and control group [analgesia with bath therapy (n = 30)].
