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.
Clinical information of children with ANCA-associated nephritis admitted to Children's Hospital Affiliated to Chongqing Medical University and partner centers from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023 was collected: To evaluate and compare the differences in survival, renal outcomes, and adverse reactions in children with ANCA-associated nephritis given different interventions according to the revised PARRG risk stratification, and to evaluate the superiority of ANCA-associated nephritis given according to the revised PARRG risk stratification. (2) To evaluate the efficacy and safety of glucocorticoid combined with rituximab and cyclophosphamide as induction regimen in high-risk group and glucocorticoid combined with rituximab as induction regimen in children with ANCA-associated nephritis (AAGN) in low and middle risk group based on PARRG risk stratification
Dynamic changes in the internal environment of the body are important clues for early detection, diagnosis and even cure of head and neck tumors. This project uses the combination of proteomics technology and liquid biopsy to provide more primary prevention strategies for early intervention, secondary prevention strategies for early detection and treatment, and clues for the study of the mechanism of dynamic evolution of head and neck tumors.
This study is to find out that if HER-2 positive and HR positive patients could benefit from trastuzumab and pertuzumab combined with palbociclib and endocrine therapy.
Participants will perform Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR), Alzheimer's disease assessment scale-cognitive section (ADAS-Cog), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) evaluation. The patients will be randomly divided into two groups, treated with lacosamide and levetiracetam respectively, and maintained for 6 months. Researchers will compare the lacosamide group with the levetiracetam group to see if the improvement of cognitive function in the two groups.
Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) is defined as direct, deliberate bodily harm without suicidal intention. In recent years, growing evidence suggests that NSSI has become a worldwide public health issue. People with NSSI behaviors, especially adolescents, commonly exhibit emotion-related and interpersonal problems. Pain empathy represents an essential basal domain of socio-emotional processing and refers to the ability to empathize, connect and share with others' pain. However, altered empathic processing has not been systematically examined in adolescents with NSSI. To this end, the current functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study will recruit one group of NSSI adolescents (n=40) and one healthy control (HC) group (n=40), to compare their neural activity regarding pain empathy processing, which is measured by blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) fMRI. The investigators included conditions of physical pain empathy (stimuli depicting noxious stimulation to the limbs) and affective pain empathy (stimuli depicting faces expressing pain) as well as corresponding control stimuli. The investigators hypothesize that compared to HC, NSSI adolescents show increased empathic reactivity to physical pain stimuli in salience and arousal related brain regions but decreased empathic reactivity to affective pain empathic stimuli.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether PET/CT-RGD or MIBI can be used for the angiogenesis assessment of NL003 in PAD patients.
Plastic particles are a ubiquitous pollutant in the living environment and food chain, so far, plenty of studies have reported the internal exposure of microplastics and nanoplastics in human tissues and enclosed body fluids. Neurosurgery is the only department that can open the skull. In addition to blood and cerebrospinal fluid, there are brain tissue and tumors in the presence of lesions. Whether any of these microplastics and nanoplastics are present remains a mystery. This prospective observational study will harvest biological samples of neurosurgery patients. The objective of this research is to be able to detect microplastics and nanoplastics on blood and operation samples of neurosurgery patients.
The efficacy and safety of chidamide in first-line maintenance therapy for PTCL will be assessed through a retrospective case analysis.
Chronic stress refers to a special emotional state caused by unexpected stress for a long time, with an increasing incidence in the population. It can cause the body to release hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. Tumor patients often experience changes such as psychological and emotional abnormalities, decreased quality of life, and impaired social relationships. Under stimulation, patients often experience negative reactions such as anxiety or depression. Epidemiological studies have shown that stress can affect the prognosis of malignant tumors, but the effect of stress on the efficacy and prognosis of esophageal cancer is still unclear. In animal models, chronic stress leads to an increase in tissue catecholamine levels, increased tumor burden, and increased invasiveness of ovarian cancer cells in mouse models. At the same time, stress can promote tumor neovascularization in mice. However, the mechanism by which chronic stress affects the occurrence and development of esophageal cancer is currently unclear. In addition to neurohumoral factors, chronic stress can cause changes in the gut microbiota, which in turn affects the body's digestion, metabolism, and immune function. It is a key gatekeeper of the immune response to tumors. Therefore, gut microbiota as an intermediate factor may also affect the occurrence and prognosis of various types of esophageal cancer.
The purpose of the D4325C00007 study is to identify and characterise patients with known or newly diagnosed CKD for possible participation in future renal clinical studies and to obtain an overview on current treatment choices for this patient group in different regions.
