There are about 11304 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Denmark. 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.
Ph.D project: Periapical bone healing after apicectomy with and without retrograde root filling. The aim of this study is to assess periapical bone healing after apicectomy without a filling and apicectomy combined with a retrograde filling material, MTA. Further, we will estimate risk factors in non-healing cases. Study hypothesis: There is no difference in treatment outcome between: Periapical bone healing after apicectomy with retrograde root filling and Periapical bone healing after apicectomy without retrograde root filling
1. Background - Pacemaker treatment gives asynchronous activation of the heart that often results in decreased heart function and clinical heart failure. New pacemaker types that stimulates both left and right ventricle ( biventricular pacemakers ) is introduced to the treatment of patients with heart failure, decreased left ventricular function and ECG signs with left bundle branch block. 2. Hypothesis - Ventricular pacing results in remodelling of the left ventricle and decreased left ventricular function. Biventricular pacing do not do this. Ventricular pacing results in heart failure and increased wall stress with decreased 6 minutes walk test and increased BNP in blood samples. This is not seen by biventricular pacing. 3. Materials and methods - 3 studies. All patients are examined by echocardiography 2-dimensional, M-mode, 3-dimensional and with tissue harmonic imaging. Study 1) Patients with AV-conduction disorder that needs pacemaker treatment are randomized to DDD-pacemaker or biventricular pacemaker. Study 2) Patients with sick sinus syndrome included in DANPACE are randomized to AAI- or DDD-pacemaker. Study 3 ) Acute study to examine the changes in patients AV-block before DDD-pacemaker implantation and after implantation.
To examine the effect of a specific training programme towards groin injuries in male footbal players. To evaluate the effect on other football related injuries as well. To examine any possible relations between various possible predictors such as experience, age, hypermobility and others, and the risk of sustaining inujries during football.
The aim is to conduct a prospective multicentre randomised study comparing two different control regimens after resection for colorectal cancer stage II - III. Follow-up after surgery for colorectal cancer is a controversial issue. The reasons for follow-up are: to obtain a better overall survival, for scientific purposes and/or for psychological reasons and/or as quality assessment. Meta-analyses of randomised controlled studies have lately shown that a beneficial effect on the overall mortality could be found with intense follow-up compared to sporadic. This study compares the regimen of CT-scan or MR scan of the liver, control of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and CT-scan or X-ray of the lungs in two groups with either control after 12 and 36 months, or after 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36 months. The efficacy parameters are total and cancer-specific mortality.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of assertive community treatment in Copenhagen in two regions compared with two regions where this treatment was not implemented. The effect on user satisfaction, use of bed days, social network, global assessment of functioning, substance misuse will be evaluated.
A prospective, longitudinal, multi-centre investigation (16 centres), including 562 patients, consecutively referred during two years, with a first-episode psychosis of ICD-10, F-2 type. Patients were treated with: 1) ‘Supportive psychodynamic psychotherapy as a supplement to treatment as usual’, 2) an ‘Integrated, assertive, psychosocial and educational treatment programme’, and 3) ‘Treatment as usual’.
The aim of this study is to answer the following independent questions in the treatment of mantle cell lymphomas: - Can rituximab-fludarabine, cyclophosphamide (R-FC) improve the reduction of lymphoma mass compared to rituximab-cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone (R-CHOP) and so become a new standard for initial cytoreductive therapy? - Can maintenance with rituximab substitute the interferon maintenance and even improve the progression free survival in patients after successful initial cytoreductive therapy?
The purpuse of this study is to examine the acute phase respons when different doses of E. Coli Endotoxin is injected in healty volunters.
Purpose of the study is to investigate and quantify known and possible new riskfactors for nosocomiel infection and death in the intensive care setting. As new riskfactors Mannose Binding Lechtin and Procalcitonin are chosen and compared to established riskfactors.
Urinary tract infections occurs in trauma. We investigate whether a nitrofurazone coated can reduce the number of urinary tract infections.
