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.
Total joint replacement is projected to become the most common elective surgical procedure in the coming decade; the prevalence of total hip arthroplasty (THA) was estimated as more than 2.5 million individuals in the entire United States population. Orthopedic procedures involving the hip have remained challenging for regional anesthesia given the complex innervation, painful nature contributing to difficulty positioning, and a desire to maintain mobility to hasten postoperative recovery.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common cancer that threatens human health, with the incidence ranking the third in the world. 70% of patients are in the middle and late stages whendiagnosed, and even after radical surgery, 30% - 50% of patients with CRC have recurrence or metastasis after radical surgery. Therefore, after radical surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy, regular monitoring of CRC patients should be paid attention to in order to detect the recurrence and metastasis lesions that can be resected and the early non-invasive metachronous multiple primary tumors. The sensitivity of FIT-DNA to CRC was 95.5%, the sensitivity to advanced adenoma (AA) was 63.5%, and the specificity was 87.5%, showing a good ability to screen colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions. At present, there is no report on the application of FIT-DNA combined detection technology in the high-risk recurrence period and mid - and long-term monitoring after CRC surgery in China. In this study, Fit-DNA combined detection technology was applied to the follow-up monitoring of patients after CRC surgery, so as to optimize the current typical postoperative follow-up strategy, find early recurrence and multiple primary colorectal tumors after CRC surgery, seek the best postoperative follow-up model, improve the compliance of patients to follow-up, and ultimately benefit survival. Detailed Description:Outline:This study was a single-center, observational study. Fit-DNA detection technology was used as a target method, and colonoscopy was used as the gold standard control to follow up and monitor patients with colorectal tumors after surgery, and to explore whether it is an effective non-invasive auxiliary method for monitoring CRC recurrence and metastasis and multiple primary colorectal tumors.
We aimed to evaluate the effect of ERAS nursing program on self-reported outcomes of patients undergoing minimally invasive lung cancer surgery, and compared the differences in length of hospital stay, complications, and readmission rate between ERAS and non-ERAS nursing programs
Study name: Sacubitril Valsartan in Preventing the Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation After Ablation in Elderly Hypertensive Patients With Atrial Fibrillation. Medicine: sacubitril/valsartan (100mg) and valsartan (80mg). Rationale: The latest guidelines represent an intensified management approach to reduce or prevent morbidity associated with atrial fibrillation. They provide stronger and more specific recommendations for catheter ablation (CA) use. However, not all patients maintain sinus rhythm after CA and both early and late relapses of AF can occur in many patients. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan in preventing atrial fibrillation recurrences after ablation in elderly hypertensive patients with atrial fibrillation. Study design: This is a 12-month prospective, randomized, active-controlled, open-label, multi-center study, with two treatment groups: sacubitril/valsartan (100mg tablet) and valsartan (80mg tablet). Study population: Men or women aged between 65 and 79 years will be screened for hypertension. Eligible patients should be untreated and treated atrial fibrillation patients with clinic systolic/diastolic blood pressure ≥130/80 mmHg, who are going to receive catheter ablation procedure. Patients should have abilities to understand the study requirements and provide informed consent. Randomization and treatment: After screening period by centers, eligible patients will be randomly divided into 2 groups, taking one pill of sacubitril/valsartan (100mg tablet) or valsartan (80mg tablet). Follow-up: After meeting the inclusion criteria, there will be 1-week screening period. Clinic blood pressure, ambulatory blood pressure, echocardiography, concomitant medication records and adverse event records will be collected at randomization period. Then patients will be randomly assigned into sacubitril/valsartan group and valsartan group. The treatment will be observed for 12 months. There will be 4 visiting points in the treatment period, which will be the 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month and 12th month. Sample size: A total of 300 patients should be enrolled in total. Timeline: After obtaining the approval of Ethics Committee of Ruijin Hospital, recruitment will start. Patients enrollment and follow-up are expected to be performed from October 2022 to December 2024.
Prolactin (PRL) and PRL receptor (PRLR) signaling has been validated to play an important role in the modulation of glucolipid metabolism. However, the role of serum PRL levels in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) remains unclear. The investigators aimed to explore the possible influence of serum PRL within or without normal range on the development of GDM.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of chemoradiotherapy combined with tirelizumab in the treatment of initial unresectable locally advanced gastric cancer or gastroesophageal junction cancer.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Venetoclax and Decitabin based conditioning regimen followed with post-HSCT Decitabin maintenance therapy in TP53 mutant AML/MDS Patients.
The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety and effects of NKG2D-CAR-NK92 infusions in the treatment of relapsed/refractory solid tumors.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of stepped-care Internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (SC-ICBT) compared with Cognitive Behavioral Group Therapy (CBGT) and conventional medical treatment (treatment as usual, TAU) in adults with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in China. The main questions it aims to answer are: question 1: Whether the efficacy of SC-ICBT is noninferior to CBGT and TAU for OCD? question 2: Whether SC-ICBT is more cost-effective than CBGT and TAU for OCD? Participants will receive treatment (SC-ICBT or CBGT or TAU) for 6 weeks. Prior to the main study, we conduct a non-randomized pilot study to explore the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of SC-ICBT related to CBGT for adults with OCD in China.
This is a phone interview research study for patients with migraine or medication-overuse headache (MOH) who have completed baseline MRI scans. Participants will be interviewed by phone at 3, 12, 24 months after the baseline MRI scans. The purpose of this study is to potentially identify the baseline brain functional or structural signatures (functional connectivity, regional homogeneity, amplitude of low frequency fluctuation, and so such) that are predictive of the short- and long- term outcomes as well as treatment response of migraine and MOH patients.
