There are about 36818 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in China. 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.
This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) for moderate to severe chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS). This study is a prospective, randomized, controlled trial. A total of 68 patients with CP/CPPS will be recruited. After baseline assessment, the patients will be randomized into taVNS group (n = 34) and sham-taVNS group (n = 34). The intervention of two group will last for 4 weeks with a 8-week follow-up period after the treatment. The National Institutes of Health chronic Prostatitis Symptom Score index (NIH-CPSI), International Prostate Symptom Score Scale (IPSS), European quality of Life-5 Dimensions Questionnaire (EQ-5D), self-rating anxiety Scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) will be assessed. The adverse events during the whole study will be recorded detailedly.
Obesity is an increasing epidemic worldwide and has a significant impact on human health and socioeconomics. Multiple studies have shown that bariatric surgery increases the risk of postoperative gallbladder stones. Contributing factors to gallstone formation include gallbladder motility and bile supersaturation due to rapid weight loss and cholesterol mobilization. At present, the prevention and treatment of gallbladder stones in obese patients after bariatric surgery are still controversial. In recent years, the study of ursodeoxycholic acid in preventing gallbladder stone formation after bariatric surgery has become a research hotspot. At the same time, other studies have shown that taking probiotics or digestive enzymes may improve gastrointestinal symptoms and improve quality of life after bariatric surgery. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the ability of probiotics to prevent gallstone formation after bariatric surgery and to evaluate the impact of oral probiotics on quality of life in patients after bariatric surgery.
The study aims to establish a diagnostic model of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with artificial intelligence-enhanced electrocardiogram.
Renal anemia refers to anemia in which the absolute or relative production of erythropoietin (EPO) is insufficient due to various kidney diseases, and uremic toxins affect erythropoietin production and its lifespan. Common treatment drugs for renal anemia include erythropoietin EPO and Roxadustat (FG-4592). Medical history information was collected from patients with renal anemia who visited the ophthalmology department with dry eye symptoms. This study will help to determine the function and morphological characteristics of meibomian gland in patients with renal anemia
The performance of the predictive models for severe oropharyngeal mucositis established using current oral mucosal contouring method was unsatisfactory in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Whereas the predictive model of a mucosal contouring method based on swallowing-induced breakthrough pain exhibited better overall performance. The aim of this prospective, multicenter, observational study was to further explore the predictive efficacy of this mucosal delineation method for radiation-induced oropharyngeal mucositis in NPC.
This exploratory study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Lusutrombopag in the treatment of primary immune thrombocytopenia in Chinese patients who have failed first-line therapy
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of using a urine biomarker test to guide the decision-making process regarding the necessity of reTURBT in NMIBC patients. The main question aims to answer whether patients with negative urine biomarker tests can safely avoid reTURBT without compromising recurrence-free survival. Participants who have completed the initial TURBT and tested negative for the urine biomarker will be enrolled in the study. They will then be randomized 1:2 into two groups:Group A: Participants will not receive reTURBT and Group B: Participants will undergo reTURBT. Researchers will compare the RFS rates between Group A (no reTURBT) and Group B (reTURBT) to determine if the urine biomarker test can safely spare patients from unnecessary reTURBT.
This is a single-center, double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled phase II study to explore the effectiveness, safety and energy balance mechanism of low-frequency continuous subcutaneous injection of HRS9531 to inhibit weight regain in obese non-diabetic and obese diabetic patients
This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the utility of fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) combined with gadoxetate disodium in patients with clinical suspected hepatic malignancies (lesion diameter ≤ 3.0cm), with histopathological findings obtained from biopsy or resected surgical specimens, or follow-up results as reference standards.
This is an exploratory real-world study designed to gain insight into the role of the product in terms of health benefits in toddlers, with the potential to generate hypotheses on key and other exploratory objectives.
