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 primary objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of olokizumab (OKZ) 64 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) once every 2 weeks (q2w) or once every 4 weeks (q4w) in subjects with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who previously had completed 24 weeks of double-blind treatment in Study CREDO 1, 2 or 3 (core studies). The long-term efficacy, immunogenicity, the physical function and quality of life of subjects received long-term treatment with OKZ were assessed as well.
Evaluate the effectiveness of a Whole body vibration training program on quadriceps muscle strength, functional capacity and respiratory muscle strength in adult renal transplant recipients
Amblyomin-X is an inhibitor of Factor Xa that also acts as an apoptotic agent for tumor cells. In the case of in vitro assays, Amblyomin-X induces tumor cells to death and does not affect the viability of normal cells. When in vivo assays were performed on mice bearing tumors, treatment with Amblyomin-X caused a significant reduction in tumor mass and number of metastases.
The purpose of this study is to define cut-off values of the most widely used composite scores and patient-reported outcomes, for levels corresponding to remission/low disease activity and for changes in levels corresponding to flares, in PsA, when remission/low disease activity and flare are defined from the patient and physician perspective. The ReFlaP (Remission/Flare in PsA) study is a prospective, multicentric international, longitudinal, observational study.
The objective of this clinical study is to assess the relative mildness of a cosmetic facial cleanser in comparison to water through repeated application to the volar forearm using the FCAT wash procedure.
Autonomic disfunction present in metabolic syndrome subjects is related by a greater vulnerability of the heart and risk of cardiovascular events. In this context, aerobic interval training has been highlighted by its easy applicability and benefits effects in autonomic modulation in different populations. Therefore the studies that use de aerobic interval training in this different populations didn't realize a periodization of training with preparatory periods with progressive increase of load, specific phases with less duration predominating the intensity and transition periods for recuperation. Additionally, there isn't studies that investigate the effects of aerobic interval training in autonomic modulation of individuals with metabolic syndrome. In this context, periodized aerobic interval training can arise like a new type of treatment that offering security and efficacy in subjects with metabolic syndrome. So, the aim of the study is evaluate the effect of periodized aerobic interval training in cardiac autonomic modulation and cardiovascular and anthropometric parameters of individuals with metabolic syndrome.
Considering that the failure of the treatment of obesity is justified by the multifactorial pathophysiology of this morbidity, the present project has the following hypotheses: 1. The occurrence of obesity is due to the derange,ent of mitochondrial energy metabolism ; 2. The unbalance is therapeutically modified through physical training ; 3. Obesity courses with the break-down in energy metabolism mitochondrial disease associated with systemic inflammatory characteristics that can be corrected through a combined long-term physical training program. This study have as objective : to analyse changes in mitochondrial function, inflammatory profile, oxidative stress and energy metabolism caused by concurrent physical training in obese women.
Contextualization: Trigger points are muscle nodules found in muscles. We can observe five different types of trigger point, in clinical practice two of them stand out, the active trigger point; Which is painful; And latent; Asymptomatic; Both of which are sensitive to palpation. Once the individual present these muscle nodules can develop pain and motor dysfunction. Studies indicate that the prevalence of trigger points is 95% of individuals with chronic musculoskeletal pain, but this prevalence is not yet clear in individuals with low back pain. Objective: To compare the pain and function levels of patients with acute and chronic low back pain who, when asymptomatic, had trigger points compared to the pain and function levels of patients with acute and chronic low back pain who, when asymptomatic, had no trigger points. Study design: Cohort study, two arms, blind evaluator, prospectively enrolled at baseline. Location: This research will be conducted in the physiotherapy department at the Rehabilitation Center of the Brotherhood of Santa Casa de Misericórdia de São Paulo (ISCMSP). Patients: 400 asymptomatic individuals Follow-up: Asymptomatic individuals will be assessed at baseline and over 3 years. You will be asked to contact the research department within 6 weeks of low back pain (acute) and after 12 weeks of low back pain (chronic). Participants will be allocated to two groups, trigger point group (n = 200) and group without trigger point (n = 200). Outcomes: The pain intensity, function level and trigger point pain intensity outcomes will be evaluated at the baseline, within 6 weeks for the patient to present pain in the lumbar (acute) and after 12 weeks the pain persists (chronic)
The human foot allows to perform several functions, rather than providing a Static support for the body, the foot acts dynamically in walking and Movement of the body, requiring adequate biomechanics responsible for Maintenance and posture of the body and harmonic distribution of plantar pressure. One of the most important structures for this control is the medial plantar vault (MPA), an important structure in the absorption of impact and essential for the function Foot. The deformation of the MPA in the gait support phase absorbs the Energy and propels the limb, to perform this biomechanical function the MPA must Stable from the anatomical point of view, which is conferred by the bone architecture and But also by the performance of the intrinsic and extrinsic musculature of the Feet. The fall of the MPA, decreases the stability of the foot, limits its biomechanical function, Besides being a risk factor for the development of pathologies such as: Tendinopathy of the calcaneus tendon and plantar fasciitis. Various Intrinsic Muscles And extrinsic have the function of stabilizing the foot and the MPA, being the main Extrinsic muscles: the posterior tibial, the flexor long of the hallux and the fingers. The Muscles when activated increase the height and decrease the Length of the MPA. Several methods are used to evaluate ALM, such as (AN), Feiss line (LF) and MPA angle (MPAH), in addition to the Baropodometry, which is used to evaluate dysfunctions in the feet, with the principle of Map the pressure of the plantar surface in a static and dynamic way. Based In this information, this study aims to evaluate the influence of the Strengthening of the intrinsic and extrinsic muscles of the feet, for the Of MPA in asymptomatic patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if anodal tDCS stimulation over M1 may decrease chronic knee OA pain in elderly subjects with defective CPM. In addition, this trial will help to investigate the role of central sensitization in knee OA and evaluate how tDCS stimulation may affect it.
