There are about 25375 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Germany. 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 study was preregistered 2019 under https://osf.io/nczhj. Since JAMA requires a registration with ClinicalTrials.gov, we post-register the study here with the identical informations from OSF (see there) Migraine is frequently associated with motion sickness, vestibular symptoms, and abnormal motion and visual processing. Clinical symptoms and underlying brain mechanisms during self-motion visual stimulation were not yet investigated in this population. Therefore the aim is to investigate the behavioral responses from a visually simulated roller coaster ride of patients with migraine and headache-free controls. In order to verify the effect of response bias, part of the patients with migraine will be informed that the study aims to investigate vestibular disorders instead of headache disorders and that they are invited as healthy controls.
The study investigates whether patients with mild SARS-CoV-2 infection, who stayed at home during their infection and weren't hospitalized, have any persisting sequelae in pulmonary function. Therefore, 110 patients, aged 6-60 years, were recruited by telephone 4-12 weeks after laboratory-confirmed positive PCR and invited for a lung function testing. Every patient with abnormalities in pulmonary function was invited to a follow-up 3 months after the first appointment to assess changes in lung function values. Patients with a pre-existing lung disease and smokers within the last five years were excluded beforehand. Additionally to lung function testing we did a throat swab at each appointment to analyse via Multiplex PCR whether the patients had any other respiratory infection at the time of the pulmonary function testing.
Ovarian hormones are not only modulators of cognitive function, emotion regulation and mental health, but also seem to affect brain plasticity and functional connectivity, During the menstrual cycle, women experience cyclic fluctuation of the ovarian hormone estradiol, which is closely associated with neuroplasticity/changes in brain structure in regions with high estradiol receptor density, such as the amygdala, hippocampus/parahippocampus, anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), striatum, and prefrontal cortex (PFC). Further functional connectivity between these areas seems to be associated with hormonal changes dependent on the menstrual cycle phase. But next to estradiol, also other hormones like progesterone fluctuate across the menstrual cycle. In the past, effects of ovarian hormone levels were often investigated in combination. However, one way to disentangle the impact of estradiol from that of other hormones on neuroplasticity, emotion regulation and mood states, can be the experimental increase of estradiol via estradiol administration. In this double-blinded within-subject study, women were administered either estradiol valerate or placebo during the early follicular phase (thus when ovarian hormone concentrations are low) before undergoing neuroimaging. Parts of the study are already described in Rehbein et al., 2021 and 2022.
Test the wound healing properties of the product as well as the cooling effect and tolerability of a wound care gel.
A two-armed prospective randomised, controlled, single-centre trial on 1080 patients with prostate cancer who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection was carried out. Patients in the intervention arm received fixation of the peritoneal flap of the bladder to the plexus Santorini at the end of surgery (Michl-technique, MT); in the control group, surgery was performed without this modification. The primary endpoint was the rate of lymphoceles requiring intervention.
Effective control of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in breeding sites with high reproductive rates could have a major impact on reducing arbovirosis in endemic communities. The application of a safe, effective, low cost and sustained insecticide coating (IC) could be an affordable response to dengue for local health services. Therefore, a cluster randomised trial for the application of a new vector control tool (insecticidal coating of water containers) was conducted in the metropolitan area of Cúcuta, Colombia. The IC is an aqueous solution containing polymeric microcapsules of insecticides and insect growth regulators (pyriproxyfen-PPF (0.063%) and alphacypermertrin-ACM (0.07%) in suspension, without interaction between them, development by INESFLY®, Spain. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether the control of the main breeding sites of Aedes mosquitoes, through the application of insecticide coating, in clusters of dwellings, could reduce dengue transmission in a sustainable way, compared to untreated clusters, in Cúcuta, Colombia. Whether the control of the main breeding sites of Aedes mosquitoes through the application of insecticide coating, in clusters of dwellings, could reduce the Aedes Indices in a sustainable way, compared to untreated clusters. The initial preparation phases: i) socialization ii) A safety evaluation to determine the health risks of IC in domestic water containers; iii) The determination of the effects and efficacy of IC on Aedes aegypti. The Baseline study to characterise the study clusters from entomological, epidemiological and socio-economic approaches was carried out in 2019-2020. The IC application phase in the intervention arm was carried out between Nov-2021 and Jan-2022, with the respective monitoring of the safety of IC use. This was followed by entomological monitoring. Finally, the 9-month post-intervention evaluation. Epidemiological data were obtained from the National Public Health Surveillance System - SIVIGILA. The study was conducted in 20 clusters of 2000 dwellings each, where 10 clusters were randomly assigned to the control arm and 10 clusters to the intervention arm. In order to determine the effect of IC application in household tanks, the dengue incidence and entomological indices are compared in the study clusters. The data are analysed under the difference in difference approach. Additionally, the acceptance of IC in the intervened communities and local health services is determined.
Stem cell transplantation and blood product transfusions are standard of care for Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS). Several studies have shown changes in serum ferritin and non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) in patients undergoing stem cell transplantation. A large proportion of MDS patients are at risk for organ damage from tissue siderosis, due to the development of iron overload. Toxic effects of iron may play an important role in the complications associated with HSCT. Iron chelation therapy may reduce the acute and chronic treatment-related toxicity by removing excess of iron, iron radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS). There is little information about the efficacy and safety of iron chelation in MDS patients. This audit wants to evaluate the effect of iron toxicity on treatment-related mortality in untreated, adult MDS or CMML patients during and after treatment with myeloablative conditioning (MAC) and reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) allo-HSCT, by prospectively collecting data from 200 MDS or CMML patients from 2009 onwards.
FLOW EVAL-AF is a prospective, observational, single center pilot trial. The FLOW EVAL-AF trial is designed to identify driver sources in patients with persistent or longstanding persistent AF using EGF mapping and describe the activation patterns observed from concomitant high density mapping of those regions.
Aim of this study is to proof the efficacy of in Jena established prophylaxis of new bone formation aside the skeleton with irradiation and compare it with the common literature. Furthermore we want to compare irradiation treatment with the alternative prophylaxis with analgetics from the NSAID type.
The investigational medicinal product (IMP) to be tested in the clinical trial (Rotigotine (ROT)-Transdermal System (TDS) (8 mg/24 h)), which is subject to this submission, was designed as a generic of Neupro® 8 mg/24 h, which is marketed in the European Union since 2006 (date of first authorisation is 2006, date of renewal of the authorisation is 2016) and serves as Reference product. It is the intention of this clinical trial to assess patch adhesion properties of the newly developed rotigotine patch and the marketed Reference product Neupro® 8 mg/24 h after multiple patch applications.
