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 purpose of this study is to investigate the effect os resistance training on microvascular reactivity, endothelial functions, inflammatory markers, blood pressure, heart rate, body composition and physical fitness in obese adolescents.
The hypothesis of this trial is that the test drug (Enoxalow® - T) pharmacodynamics parameters are similar to the comparator drug (Clexane® - C) in healthy subjects following administration of single intravenous dose. The objective of this randomized, crossover, clinical trial is to evaluate the pharmacodynamic profile of the test drug Enoxalow® - T produced by Blau Farmacêutica, compared to the comparator drug Clexane®, produced by Sanofi-Aventis, by determining pharmacodynamic activities (including anti FXa and anti-FIIa), as surrogate markers for their circulating concentrations of the drug.

The purpose of this study is to collect safety clinical data in HIV-infected pediatric patients aged 6 and older to younger than18 years and weighing 15 kg or more, who are receiving atazanavir capsule boosted with ritonavir and an optimized nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor backbone therapy as part of their antiretroviral regimen.
The purpose of this study is to associate the use of botulinum toxin type A for patients with keratoconus to demonstrate that tension eyelid has an important role in disease progression.
The patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is defined as a painful complaint in the anterior aspect of the knee, although peripatellar pain and / or retropatellar are also common. In general, conservative treatment is the initial option of choice for patients with PFPS, however, the lack of a specific causal factor makes it difficult to choose the best treatment so early. This way, the purpose of this study is investigate the effects of the quadriceps femoris strengthening versus hamstring stretching in patients with pattellofemoral pain.
Introduction: There is evidence that demonstrate the beneficial effects of pulmonary rehabilitation programs (PR) on symptoms, exercise capacity, muscle strength and quality of life in patients with Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The majority of the studies used high intensity endurance and strength exercise training on land. Exercise on water is an effective form of training that has been used for decades for rehabilitation in different chronic conditions. In addition, there are promising preliminary results on the literature regarding aquatic training in patients with COPD. However, several gaps remain. Aim: Compare the effects of two rehabilitation programs with 6 months of duration in patients with COPD on physical activity in daily life and balance: land versus water. Methods: The sample will consist of 36 patients with COPD diagnosed according to the GOLD criteria, 50 years old or more and clinically stable. Patients will be evaluated in 3 different moments: before the PR, after the PR and 6 months after the end of the PR (follow up). In addition to the assessment of physical activity in daily life and balance, the investigators will also evaluate pulmonary function, peripheral and respiratory muscle strength, body composition, maximal and submaximal exercise capacity, functional status and quality of life. Both groups (land or water) will be submitted for 3 sessions of exercise training per week, with 45 minutes of duration, during 6 months. The sessions of both groups include the same exercises sequence. Endurance exercise training will be performed on a bicycle and walking on land and strength training using free weights. Workload will be established according to the tests performance on assessment and progression will follow a predetermined schedule and adjusted according symptoms. On water the same approach will be followed. Expected results: the investigators expect improvement in terms of symptoms, exercise capacity, muscle strength, quality of life, functional status and physical activity in daily life at the end of the two training protocols. However, it is unclear whether one training protocol will be superior than the other. Due to the characteristics involved in the aquatic training, the investigators hypothesized that this type of training can result in better results on balance.
A retrospective study based on analysis of medical records of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated at the Hospital Sírio-Libanês (Sao Paulo-Brazil) between 2001 and 2011 with diagnosis confirmed by imaging or histological specimen underwent surgical resection with curative intent. The study aims to determine the prognostic value of vascular complications related to cancer and to evaluate the survival rate of these patients, comparing the data with those reported in the literature.
To evaluate the effects of stretching exercise in patients with ankylosing spondylitis at quality of life, functional capacity in patients with BASDAI lower than 4.Evaluate 40 patients with the diagnose of ankylosing spondylitis according to the criteria of the American College of rheumatology provenient from FMUSP at Clinical Hospital of São Paulo.
The purpose of the ACCELERATE study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of evacetrapib in participants with high-risk vascular disease (HRVD).
