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.
patients with resistant hypertension will be submitted to an exercise protocol in a heated pool for three months
This study aims to examine the variation in muscle torque and discomfort produced when electrically stimulating quadriceps femoris using pulsed current with three different phase durations in order to establish whether there are any advantages or disadvantages in varying the phase duration over the range examined.
Background: The individual's ability to sustain itself in the upright position, effectively adjusting the body's movements and reacting to external stimuli, postural control strategies represent essential activities of daily living. Diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM-2) is considered a more problem of Public Health as having complications deficit in functional performance of the lower limbs and falls, which can interfere with the maintenance of balance, and is a strong predictor of functional limitations self referred. Aim: To assess quality of life and the answers neuromuscular balance and baropodometric after sensory-motor training in patients with type 2 diabetes. Method: To be recruited 50 volunteers aged between 45 to 64 years with DM-2, of both sexes, divided into two groups: 1) Guidelines and 2) Guidelines + sensory-motor training. Biomechanical data will be collected (balance, baropodometry, electromyography strength and joint position sense), as well as questionnaires ADDQoL and BESTest. The intervention will be twice a week for 45 minutes for 12 weeks, divided into three phases: heating, sensory-motor training and cool-down, with monitoring of blood pressure and blood glucose. There will be a follow up after 3 months of intervention. Statistical analysis will be used normality test to verify the data distribution and consistent statistical test for the appropriate comparisons within and between groups, and adopted a significance level of 5%. Expected Results: Considering previous studies that demonstrate improvement in postural balance static and dynamic responses under the forward training protocol sensorimotor disease Diabetes mellitus type 2, is expected to improve neuromuscular, balance, distribution plant, the joint position sense and the quality of life of voluntary DM-2. Keywords: physical therapy modalities, exercise therapy, postural balance, Diabetes Mellitus, quality of life.
Prospective randomized comparison between endovascular procedures performed with iodinated contrast or carbon dioxide as intraarterial contrast.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of green tea on body weight, waist circumference, metabolic profile, inflammation, blood pressure and endothelial function in obese pre-hypertensive women.
The purpose of this study is to compare subcutaneous Abatacept to placebo in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis
To evaluate safety and efficacy of the combination cisplatin plus irinotecan in the treatment of biliary tract cancer.
Evaluate the effect of chest manual compression technique (CCT) in the variables of oxygenation, hemodynamic and respiratory work in infants with respiratory diseases that are associated with atelectasis.
The dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system with an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor and an angiotensin-receptor blocker used together in heart failure patients has been demonstrated to be beneficial. However, the dual inhibition has not been studied during heart failure decompensation or even when low cardiac output is present. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of add-on therapy with angiotensin receptor blocker on plasma B-type natriuretic peptide levels and hemodynamic measurements in heart failure patients with low cardiac output during hospitalization for decompensation. This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial.
The aim of this study is to test a methodology of counseling on physical activity among Community Health Workers working within primary health care in Brazil.
