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.
Indroduction: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a painful condition causing disability, weakness and poor quality of live. The results are very consistent about the benefits of laser and exercises to improve pain and function in subjects with knee osteoarthritis Objectives: To investigate the effects of Low Power Laser (LBP) associated with exercise in pain, function, range of motion, muscle strength and quality of life of patients with knee osteoarthritis. Methods: Forty patients of both sexes aged between 50 and 75 years with knee osteoarthritis (grade 2-4) were randomized into two groups: Laser-LBP-active dose of 3J more exercises and Group Placebo-LBP- placebo and exercise. Were evaluated for pain, function, range of motion, muscle strength and quality of life on three occasions: before starting treatment (evaluation 1), 3 weeks after laser application (evaluation 2) and 8 weeks after completion of exercise (evaluation 3). There were 33 physical therapy sessions three times a week, on March 1 and the laser was applied in the other, only the exercises.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of A-623 in subjects with SLE.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the bioequivalence (BE) of Saxagliptin and Metformin from a 5 mg Saxagliptin/500 mg Metformin extended release (XR) fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet relative to 5 mg Onglyza™ and 500 mg Glifage® XR (marketed in Brazil by Merck S.A.) tablets administered together in both the fasted and fed states.
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether armodafinil treatment, at a dosage of 150 mg/day, is more effective than placebo treatment as adjunctive therapy to mood stabilizers for treatment of adults with major depression associated with bipolar I disorder.
This study aims to evaluate the effects of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) supplementation on resistance exercise-induced muscle damage and inflammation.
This is a retrospective analysis of infection on catheters of pediatric oncology patients.
Retrospective study to evaluate the characteristics of patients and of fluid resuscitation during intensive care unit hospitalization of patients under septic chock.
Identify pediatric oncologic patients with ALI/ARDS at GRAACC/IOP's Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and evaluate the mechanical ventilation practice in these subjects for a 48mo period.
Observational protocol to analyse routine vancomycin serum levels of patients under intensive care and to obtain percentage of patients that achieve therapeutic values.
This study will investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of the PASCAL laser (PAttern SCAn Laser) for diabetic retinopathy. Patients with proliferative or severe nonproliferative retinopathy will be treated with panretinal photocoagulation utilizing different treatment strategies. The investigators believe that using "lower" laser parameters, the clinical response may be equivalent with less adverse effects.
