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 objective of this work is to develop an application to run on a mobile device Android tablet that features visual routines for autistic children.
The study is a prospective registry of Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) patients in Brazil. The purpose of the study is to gather clinical, epidemiologic and outcomes data on the treatment of HL, on the basis of records collected by key Brazilian institutions, through a centralized web-based registry of clinical data verified by central board of hematopathologists.
This study will evaluate if periodontal mechanical treatment is capable to alter immunological and genetical parameters related to systemic health in patients with chronic periodontitis ant diabetes type 2.
This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (relative bioavailability) and pharmacodynamics, after single subcutaneous application, in healthy volunteers of both sexes, between pegfilgrastim formulation, produced by Eurofarma Laboratorios S/A and Neulastim® (reference formulation), marketed by Produtos Roche Químicos e Farmacêuticos S/A. In addition to that, a pharmacodynamics comparison will be performed, through change in absolute neutrophil count in leukogram performed in the same time of pharmacokinetics analysis collection and through CD34+ cell count in peripheral blood at timepoints 0:00, 96:00 and 384:00 hours.
The current study was a double blind randomised controlled trial that compared radiofrequency ablation (RFA) versus conventional surgery (CS) in patients who served as their own controls and who had intact great saphenous veins (GSVs).
Background/Aim: While growing evidence supports the use of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) for performance and recovery enhancement, there have only been laboratory-controlled studies. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze the effects of PBMT in performance and recovery of high-level rugby players during an anaerobic field test. Methods: It is a randomized, crossover, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. Twelve male high-level rugby athletes were recruited in this study. No intervention was performed before the Bangsbo Sprint Test (BST) at familiarization phase (week 1). At weeks 2 and 3, pre-exercise PBMT or placebo were randomly applied to each athlete. PBMT/placebo irradiation was performed at 17 sites of each lower limb, employing a cluster with 12 diodes (4 laser diodes of 905nm, 4 LED diodes of 875nm, and 4 LED diodes of 640nm, 30J per site - manufactured by Multi Radiance Medical™). Average time of sprints, best time of sprints, and fatigue index were obtained from BST. Blood lactate levels were assessed at baseline, and at 3, 10, 30 and 60 minutes after BST. Athletes' perceived fatigue was also assessed through a questionnaire.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of warm packs, perineal massage and hands off, during labour, in the perineal outcomes. The perineal outcomes are perineal tears, grade of perineal tears, need of suture, perineal edema, perineal pain, use of drugs for perineal pain, and satisfaction with the technique used.
The low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been used in many inflammatory disorders. More recently the LLLT was associated with an improvement in the muscle strength and endurance. But, these effects were described only in health or athletic individuals. In this randomized and controlled clinical trails, the investigators will study the effects of LLLT on muscle strength of the patients with kidneys failure on long time hemodialysis treatment. Additionally, investigators will explore three different intensities up the muscle strength.
The rollover study will provide ceritinib to patients who are currently receiving treatment with ceritinib within a Novartis-sponsored study and in the opinion of the investigator, would benefit from continued treatment with ceritinib.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic, progressive and disabling disease and can affect functional capacity due to the weakness of the respiratory muscles. Therefore, the objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of inspiratory muscle training on functional capacity in patients with OSA. A pilot study will be conducted to calculate the sample. Individuals of both genders, diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea moderate or severe (measured by polysomnography) will be invited and the data collected in the Sleep Laboratory of the Pronto-Socorro Cardiológico de Pernambuco (PROCAPE), located in Recife- PE- BRAZIL. The study deals with a test-clinical randomized double-blind.The intervention groups held inspiratory muscle training (IMT) and the load is equivalent to 40% of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP). The evaluations will be performed once a week during twelve weeks. Control groups will be submitted to a simulated training with load less than 10% of MIP (insufficient charge to train the muscles), during the same period as the intervention group. The guidelines for the training and weekly evaluations will be performed by the responsible for the researcher physiotherapist in Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy Laboratory (LACAP- UFPE). After the training period, the groups will be reassessed by the evaluation tests of functional capacity (ADL- Glittre Test and Ergospirometry), inspiratory muscle strength (manometer) and lung function (spirometry) and then compared. Expected results: The interventional groups will improve their functional capacity.
