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.
A prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, observational, consecutive case series, which will compare Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatoscopy (ERCP) and cholangioscopy with Spy Glass Digital System (DS) procedure at 5-10 centers.
Study to enroll up to 1000 adult patients (>18 years) presenting with febrile or rash illness of short duration (<72h) in designated clinics in the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The purpose of this study is to determine the benefit and safety of relugolix 40 milligrams (mg) once daily, co-administered with low-dose estradiol (E2) and norethindrone acetate (NETA) compared with placebo for 24 weeks, on dysmenorrhea and on nonmenstrual pelvic pain.
In the current scientific literature, it is clear that SUI can cause several social, hygienic and personal relationship problems. It has also been proven that this condition affects many more menopausal women than menacme, and this is believed to be due to the hypoestrogenism characteristic of this phase. On the other hand, weakness of the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) is also related to the genesis of SUI. The role of these muscles would be to keep the bladder neck elevated (above the pubic symphysis) during increases in abdominal pressure, and its weakness would lead to excessive lowering of the bladder neck at these times, leading to SUI due to bladder neck hypermobility. The conservative treatment of this condition, therefore, encompasses the strengthening of PFMs, which would avoid excessive descent of the bladder neck during increases in abdominal pressure, thereby reducing urinary loss. In the current literature there are studies proving the effectiveness of pelvic floor muscle training; however, in relation to the literature on abdominal hipopressive gymnastics, it is observed that the scientific evidence is still poor, however, the technique is still Widely spread through extension courses offered throughout Latin America, France and Spain; With regard to the comparison of these methods with respect to their clinical efficacy and the quality of life and patient satisfaction, there are no consistent studies, and this fact motivated us to carry out this study.
The study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial that will include the participation of 14 Jiu-Jitsu athletes between 18 and 33 years. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of carbohydrate consumption on fatigue and exercise-induced muscle damage in Jiu-Jitsu athletes.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the most commonly reported adverse effects of anesthesia. The general incidence of vomiting is approximately 30%, nausea at 50% and the PONV rate can go up to 80% in high-risk patients without prophylaxis. Prevention of these episodes in high-risk patients improves satisfaction and well-being rates. Therefore, it becomes important the adequate control of PONV, aiming at the satisfaction of the patient with the procedure, lower costs for the health system as well as reduction of complications in the postoperative period. This study aims to evaluate the association of gabapentin or pregabalin with dexamethasone in reducing the incidence of PONV in high-risk patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries in the first 48 hours postoperatively as well as to assess side effects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab plus cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (CyBorD) compared with CyBorD alone in treatment of newly diagnosed amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis participants.
Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a multifactorial pathology characterized by diffuse retropatellar and peripatellar pain in the knee joint, exacerbated by overloading activities on the patellofemoral joint. However, this disease showed high degree of patients not responsive to therapeutic strategies. This condition occurred because several factors is related to disease such as: (1) proximal factors (involving trunk and hip), (2) local factors (surrounding and or within the patellofemoral joint) and (3) distal factors (involving ankle and foot). Thus, the identification of clinical subgroups based in anatomic changes (proximal, local and distal factors) is a recent strategy that could help in the therapeutic strategies focused on the etiology of the disease, improve responsiveness to treatment, clinical and functional benefits.
Randomized clinical study in pulpotomies of deciduous molar teeth. A comparison of two techniques is established.
Physical activity plays an important role in the management of chronic low back pain (LBP). Engaging in an active lifestyle is associated with a better prognosis. Nevertheless, there is evidence to suggest that patients with chronic LBP are less likely to meet recommended physical activity levels. Furthermore, while exercise therapy has been endorsed by recent clinical practice guidelines, evidence from systematic reviews suggests that its effect on pain and disability are at best moderate and not sustained over time. A limitation of current exercises programs for chronic LBP is that these programs are not designed to change patient's behaviour toward an active lifestyle. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate the short and long-term efficacy of a multimodal intervention consisting of supervised exercises, health coaching and use of an activity monitor (i.e. Fitbit Flex) compared to supervised exercises plus sham coaching and a sham activity monitor on physical activity levels, pain intensity and disability in patients with chronic nonspecific LBP.
