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.
The GEPOC study investigates the effect of comprehensive geriatric assessment and intervention for frail older patients (65 years or older) undergoing elective surgery for colorectal cancer. the geriatric intervention will be pre- and postoperative. included in the intervention is an exercise intervention. The main aim of the study us to see if the functional decline in this group can be reduced.
Pain sensitization has been associated with pain severity in people with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and a neuropathic pain component has been identified in up to 30% of KOA patients. In addition, exercise-induced hypoalgesia (EIH), a measure of descending pain control, has previously been found dysfunctional in a subgroup of people with painful KOA and has also been utilized as a predictive factor for pain progression following total knee replacement. Measures of pain sensitization have been used prognostic to identify responders to treatment but EIH as a prognostic tool for Physiotherapy-guided Evidence-based Exercise Therapy (PEET) has not been investigated. The primary aim of this explorative study is to investigate if EIH assessed pre-PEET was associated with changes in pain, disability and PainDETECT (PDQ) score post-PEET. The secondary aim is to investigate if PEET changes EIH and PDQ score in patients with painful KOA. Part 2: Cross-sectional studies indicate, that daily level of activity influence the effectivity of the EIH mechanims, while pain patients (e.g. KOA patients) can have normal of dysfunctional EIH. It has not been investigated if EIH changes after prolonged exercise in healthy subjects. The aim of this secord part of the study, is to investigate if EIH changes after 6-9 weeks of intensive military training in healthy subjects
In the current study we wish to investigate the effects on glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) of a neprilysin inhibitor
Even though broken wrists are of frequent occurrence, the investigators see a lack of extensive and well executed international studies to clarify which is the best treatment for elderly participants at 65+ years. The Danish Health and Medicines Authority recommend that broken wrists are treated with surgery by using plates and screws when certain radiological criteria are met. Recent studies show that, apparently, there are no advantages by operating rather than treating with plaster when comparing the functional results after one year. However, there is a 30 % risk of serious complications occurring after surgery. This study will examine the pros and cons that participants at 65+ years with broken wrists experience after, by lot, having been treated with either surgery (using plates and screws) or without surgery (using plaster for 5 weeks). The purpose of this study is to compare the complications and level of functioning between participants treated with surgery and without surgery.
The aim of the present randomized double-blinded placebo-controlled clinical trial is to investigate if melatonin can protect against acute radiation dermatitis in patients with early breast cancer receiving radiation therapy, and whether this has an impact on the patients' quality of life.
This cluster randomized controlled study evaluates the effect of a tailored observation, reflection and communication tool on used by long-term care facility staff on antibiotic prescription for urinary tract infection in long-term care facility residents.
A single center, open-label, phase IIa, single arm, window of opportunity trial with IO103 and Montanide adjuvant in patients with surgically resectable BCC.
In this randomized double blind placebo controlled study of tranexamic acid during minor spinal surgery, mean postoperative blood loss in the patients who received TXA was statistically significantly lower compared to placebo.
This study investigates the influence of a remote, painful stimulus on stretch tolerance. Half of the participants will receive a conditioning painful stimulus following static stretching while the other half will rest quietly.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate superiority of secukinumab at Week 16, based on Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR) rates versus placebo, along with the maintenance of efficacy of secukinumab at Week 52 in subjects with moderate to severe HS. Moreover, this study assessed the safety and tolerability of secukinumab.
