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.
Two different treatments were given to large angle horizontal strabismus (eso and exotropia) adult patients who agree to participate of the study. Inform consents were required for participants. Group 1 (12 patients) received conventional recess-resect surgery plus intraoperative injection of botulinum toxin A (5U). Group 2 (11 patients) received only conventional recess-resect surgery. The patients were randomly located in one of the groups. The angles of horizontal deviation were compared between the groups before and six months after treatment.
This study aims to compare in a prospective and randomized way actinic keratosis treatment with 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy versus cryotherapy, from the standpoint of therapeutic efficacy, pain, and cosmetic results.
This is a prospective, multicentre, randomized clinical trial comparing two different neo-adjuvant radiation-based strategies prior to intended surgery for locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the rectum. This trial may establish the investigational therapy to be superior to, or at least not inferior to conventional treatment.
Acrofacial vitiligo is a clinical form of vitiligo characterized by macules in distal digits, periorificial-facial and ano-genital areas. Vitiligo European Task Force classifies vitiligo as generalized or localized; generalized vitiligo may be further sub-divided into acrofacial, vulgaris and universalis, and localized vitiligo, into segmental and focal. Some authors do not believe that acrofacial is a real vitiligo clinical form, considering it as an initial form of vulgaris vitiligo. The aim of this study is to follow early- diagnosed acrofacial patients during ten years in order to define if these patients will maintain this clinical form or will evolute to a more severe clinical form.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib (CP-690,550) in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis who have failed or be intolerant to one of following treatments for ulcerative colitis: oral steroids, azathiopurine/6-mercaptopurine, or anti-TNF-alpha therapy.
The study proposes to assess whether compared to placebo, CP-690,550 is effective, safe, and tolerable maintenance therapy in subjects with Ulcerative Colitis (UC). The study proposes to assess whether compared to placebo, CP-690,550 maintenance therapy more effectively achieves mucosal healing and improves quality of life in subjects with UC.The study proposes to assess CP-690,550 pharmacokinetic exposure during maintenance therapy in subjects over the age of 18 years with UC.
This was a long-term, open-label study of migalastat (123 milligrams [mg] of migalastat [equivalent to 150 mg of migalastat hydrochloride]) (migalastat) in participants with Fabry disease who completed treatment in a previous monotherapy trial with migalastat.
Non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) has been used in hypoxic post-operative cardiac patients but more studies are necessary to clarify its respiratory and hemodynamic effects. Therefore, the investigators objective was to study its effects in the oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2) and in hemodynamic variables in this group of patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether inferior turbinate surgery during rhinoseptoplasty is effective in improving quality of life and acoustic rhinometry outcomes.
Observational Study of Hemoderivative Transfusion Imputable Complications in Initial Uncomplicated Heart Surgery. Inclusion criteria are patients who discontinued the mechanical ventilation up to 6 hours after exiting operation room and who discontinued vasoactive drugs up to the beginning of the second postoperative day. Blood transfusion might be only a marker of the patient severity.
