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.
It has been proposed that the modulation of the activity of the sympathetic nervous system, through renal sympathetic denervation, besides reducing blood pressure, would promote an improvement in vascular reactivity and consequent improvement of macro and microcirculation. The present study aimed to investigate the influence of the renal sympathetic denervation on the skin microvascular function of patients presenting with resistant arterial hypertension.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the superiority of Sotagliflozin 200 milligrams (mg) and Sotagliflozin 400 mg versus placebo on HbA1c reduction at 26 Weeks in participants with Type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycemic control and moderate renal impairment. Secondary Objectives: - To assess the effects of Sotagliflozin 200 mg and 400 mg versus placebo with respect to additional measures of glycemic control, blood pressure, and body weight. - To evaluate the safety of Sotagliflozin 200 mg and 400 mg versus placebo.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the superiority of sotagliflozin 400 milligrams (mg) versus placebo with respect to hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) reduction at Week 26 in participants with Type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycemic control and severe renal impairment Secondary Objectives: - To assess the effects of sotagliflozin 200 mg versus placebo based on change from baseline in HbA1c - To assess the effects of sotagloflozin 400 mg and 200 mg versus placebo - To evaluate the safety of sotagliflozin 400 mg and 200 mg versus placebo
Cervical cancer is the third most frequent neoplasm in Brazilian women (estimated risk of 15.33 cases / 100,000 women by 2014), behind breast and colorectal cancer. This high incidence is explained by the pre-neoplastic lesions of the cervix being probably related to the practice of unsafe sex and to a poor local immune response against HPV. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection affects people of any age, although it is more common in young people, probably due to increased sexual activity in that period. The association between high-risk HPV and anus neoplasm in men and women with immunodeficiency or immunosuppression has been confirmed and measures related to surveillance are standardized. In patients without immunodeficiencies, this association is still unclear, which may contribute to the lack of adequate standards to diagnose HPV and prevent cancer of the anus. The frequency of the cancer of anus previously considered low, is currently in considerable elevation, mainly squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The causal relationship between this virus and cancer of the cervix and the anus is established. These facts have motivated the inclusion of this disease as STD, which justifies the necessity of adopting surveillance measures in the clinics of sexual, gynecological and urological diseases. Cancer of the anus, when diagnosed in the early stage, makes healing possible with less aggressive treatments, but in the advanced stage, abdominoperineal amputation is necessary. Concerned about possible anal cancer, some gynecologists have referred patients with genital HPV to search for anal infection.
The sample comprised 31 female undergraduate students attending a private University in João Pessoa, northeastern Brazil. The inclusion criteria were: age between 19 and 35 years, heterosexual, active sex life, living in a stable relationship for at least 6 months no pregnancy or parturition in the last 6 months, clinically healthy and agreeing with the terms for participating in the study. All participants gave their informed consent to take part in the study.
The purpose of this trial was to determine the effect of a triclosan-containing toothpaste in the clinical parameters and in the profile of osteo-immunoinflammatory mediators in the peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) as a preventive therapy of peri-implant experimental mucositis in cigarette smokers
Objective: To investigate the impact of nonsurgical periodontal treatment in patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD) and controls without phobia.
This study will evaluate the proportion of subjects with chronic myeloid leukemia chronic phase that sustain major molecular response after imatinib discontinuation. To be eligible for this protocol, the subject must have received imatinib as first line regiment for at least 3 years with sustained molecular response of 4log (RM4log) or higher for one year.
The aim of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of an attention bias modification training if compared to an attention control and psychoeducation to reduce the symptoms of irritability among children with high levels of irritability.
Periorbital hyperchromia (POH) or periorbital hyperpigmentation, commonly known as "dark circles", is a relatively common condition and a frequent reason for dermatological consultation. It is defined as brown-colored pigmentation, ranging from light to dark, which mainly involves the lower eyelids. POH affects individuals over a wide age range, including both sexes and all ethnicities, and is associated with a tired and aged facial appearance. The most commonly affected people are those with the highest skin phototypes. Although the prevalence is similar between sexes and age groups, POH is a more frequent complaint in women. The dark circles characteristic of POH can negatively impact patients' quality of life, although it is not a condition associated with morbidity. Despite its high prevalence, only a few well-designed studies were done to evaluate its therapeutic options. The intense pulsed light (IPL) and the thioglycolic acid are safe treatment options and promote the improvement of dark circles, but it is not known if one treatment differs from the other in relation to efficacy and adverse effects.
