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 Multicenter, Open-label Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Efficacy of Certolizumab Pegol in Children and Adolescents With Moderately to Severely Active Polyarticular-course Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA).
This protocol aims to assess of L-carnitine and piracetam to relieve weakness, muscle fatigue and muscle pain in patients with Postpoliomyelitis Syndrome.
The hypothesis to be tested is that the use of total contact insoles for six months reduces foot pain, improves function and quality of life of patients diagnosed with plantar fasciitis.
Inclusion of foods rich in fiber, such as flaxseed, is a nutritional strategy for treating obesity. The hypothesis of this study is to compare the effects of three types of flaxseed flour - whole brown flaxseed flour, brown defatted flaxseed flour and golden flaxseed flour in the sensations of appetite and satiety, lipid profile, pressure levels and associated costs in overweight and obese women.
The primary aim of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects of two commercial preparations of filgrastim (T and C), after single dose via subcutaneous or intravenous administration at a concentration of 5 mcg/kg or 10 mcg/kg in healthy subjects through the alteration in the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters (measurement of serum levels of G-CSF and absolute neutrophil count - ANC).
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that treating PAH-CHD patients preoperatively with PAH drugs and keeping them on treatment for six months after surgery reduces the risk of immediate postoperative death and the risk of residual PAH at six months following operation to <10%.
In spite of the numerous studies on schizophrenia, its etiology and physiopathology remain unknown. Evidence suggests a possible implication of nitric oxide (NO) in schizophrenia. NO is a gas with unique chemistry and influences the release of neurotransmitters, learning, memory and neurodevelopment. Recent studies that investigated the role of NO in patients with schizophrenia found evidence that points to a disruption in NO-mediated neurotransmission in schizophrenia. Accordingly, we believe that the administration of sodium nitroprusside, an NO donor, will ameliorate schizophrenia symptoms.
The aim of this randomized double-blind study was to evaluate the effect of oral zinc and selenium supplementation on oxidative stress and inflammation biomarkers as well as the status of zinc and selenium in patients with atherosclerosis and angina stable treated with rosuvastatin. The hypotheses tested in this study were: Treatment with rosuvastatin impairs zinc and selenium status in patients with atherosclerosis and stable angina? Zinc and selenium supplementation, concomitantly with rosuvastatin, influences the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory as well as the status of minerals?
The recent scientific evidence shows that FM patients improve exercise capacity, symptoms and quality of life with the holding of regular exercise, especially aerobic exercise. Swimming is an aerobic workout of low impact, but no study has evaluated the effect of this activity in patients with fibromyalgia. Randomized controlled trial with blinded evaluator, which will be evaluated patients with fibromyalgia were divided into two groups. The intervention group will hold an exercise program of swimming (freestyle) and the other considered the control group held a walking program.
The purpose of this study is to determine which humidification system is more effective in preventing pneumonia in mechanically ventilated patients. The study will compare a heat and moisture exchanger versus heated humidification.
