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.
Childhood obesity has been associated with increased risk of both continued excess body weight, development of non-communicable lifestyle diseases and impaired mental health. Approximately 800 children with obesity were treated with a municipality based family-centered lifestyle intervention in the time period 2010-2020. In the same time period, approximately 2000 children with obesity who did not receive any treatment have been identified. Our aim is to investigate the efficiency of the two interventions and compare those to children not receiving any treatment. We will use data from both the clinical visits at the municipality health care workers and data from Statistics Denmark.
Anti-inflammatory or anti-angiogenic drugs play an ever- increasing role in the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME). The drug delivery systems, such as injections of corticosteroid and or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibodies into the vitreous cavity or slow release drug capsules surgically implanted in the eyes run the risk of surgical complications including infections, hemorrhages and cataracts and place a huge demand on eye care resources significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular events and death. A non-invasive drug delivery platform with steroid eye drops, reaching the back of the eye to treat DME and other retinal diseases would circumvent most of these problems. A novel drug delivery platform is required for ocular therapy. Oculis ehf. has developed a drug delivery platform, which is based on cyclodextrin nanoparticles that dissolve in the tear fluid to form water-soluble drug/cyclodextrin complex nanoparticles. Animal and initial clinical testing has shown the potential for this technology to increase the drug concentration in the eye tissues including the retina and therefore treat retinal diseases like DME.
This cross-sectional and prospective cohort study will investigate if sRPL patients with a first born boy who carry ≥1 HY-restricting (HY-r) HLA class II alleles are associated with a lower chance for a succesful reproductive outcome in first pregnancy after admission compared to sRPL patients with a first born girl carrying ≥1 HY-r HLA class II alleles and women with no HY-r HLA class II alleles and a firstborn boy. Also, the study will compare sRPL patients with a firstborn boy who do not carry a HY-r HLA class II allele with sRPL patients having a firstborn girl and carrying no such alleles. We hypothesize that sRPL patients with a first born boy compared to sRPL patients with a firstborn girl who carry ≥1 HY-r HLA class II alleles is associated with a negative prognosis, while no association between sex of firstborn child and pregnancy outcome is expected in sRPL carrying no HY-r HLA class II alleles. Neither do we expect an association between pregnancy outcome and carriage of HY-r HLA class II alleles in pRPL patients.
The objective of this study is to determine whether it is possible to detect traces above national cut-offs of either cocaine's main metabolite benzoylecgonine in saliva or cocaine in blood 24 hours after administering 2 ml of 40 mg/ml cocaine-saline to the nasal mucosa. The investigators hypothesize that the level of cocaine's main metabolite bezoylecgonine in saliva after cocaine administered for anesthetic purposes will be below detection limits after 24 hours.
The objective of this study is to compare xylometazoline and cocaine's effect on minimizing epistaxis when administered as a local vasoconstrictor prior to nasal intubation. The investigators hypothesize that there will be a lower bleeding score in the group receiving xylometazoline as compared with the group receiving cocaine.
The primary aim of this study is to investigate fluid loss from the blood stream (''endothelial leakage'') and the damage on the vessel wall (''endothelial function'') during surgery. Cardiovascular complications during surgery are said to have different causes, e.g. lack of fluid in the blood stream (''hypovolemia'') and decreased vascular tone. Hypovolemia can have different causes, one being damage to the endothelial function. During trauma and infection, it has been previously shown, that damage to the endothelial function causes fluid loss from the blood stream. Nevertheless, this has never been demonstrated during surgery. Secondary this study will measure the blood flow using a thermo-camera during surgery. This will together with selected blood tests provide information on various possible causes to hypovolemia. The purpose of this study is to describe and quantify endothelial damage (assessed by selected endothelial biomarkers) and albumin escape rate as a proxy for endothelial leakage (assessed by measuring radioactive 125-I labeled HSA injected postoperatively), combined with assessment of MTS (assessed by Laser Speckle Contrast Imaging (LSCI) and digital thermography). This will allow a detailed description of the surgery's impact on the endothelial integrity and contribute to a better understanding of the physiological changes that occur postoperatively. The study will investigate patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple) and total pancreatectomy. These patients have a vast clinical need, being one of the most extensive abdominal surgical procedures with great stress response. The study is a prospective exploratory cohort study and methods include blood sampling pre- and post-operatively, 125-I labeled humane serum albumin postoperatively (and preoperatively if logistically possible) and thermography. The hypothesis of this study is that the extent of endothelial damage measured by selected biomarkers is associated with the level of albumin escape rate after major abdominal surgery. Secondly, inflammation increases albumin escape rate after major abdominal surgery.
This trial is composed of a randomized, double-blind, active controlled component (Part A) and an open-label, single-arm component (Part B) conducted in parallel. Part A is designed to compare vaccination with a single 100 µg dose of ABNCoV2 to a single 30 µg adult booster dose of Comirnaty (active control) in adult subjects who either previously completed primary vaccination (Cohort 1) or have already received 1 booster dose (Cohort 2) of SARS-CoV-2 locally authorized vaccine(s), and whose last locally authorized SARS-CoV-2 vaccination was at least 3 months prior to the screening visit. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either ABNCoV2 or Comirnaty. Part B is designed to collect ABNCoV2 safety and tolerability data from a larger population of adult subjects, as well as additional immunogenicity data from a subset. Part B involves vaccination with the same single 100 µg dose of ABNCoV2 in the same population of adult subjects as the randomized component, and subjects will similarly be enrolled into 2 cohorts according to whether they have completed primary vaccination only or primary plus booster vaccination.
Patients undergoing major surgery are at risk of postoperative complications. Continuous wireless monitoring outside the post-anesthesia or intensive care units may enable early detection of patient deterioration, but good accuracy of measurements is required. This validation study, which is part of the WARD-SX project, aimed to assess the agreement between vital signs recorded by standard and novel wireless devices
64 postmenopausal women are randomized to treatment with either effervescent and buffered alendronate or conventional alendronate -both 70mg weekly for 16 weeks to see if bone turnover is suppressed to the same extent as in the conventional formulation with the effervescent form.
Within a six-year period from 2016-2021, this retrospective cohort study aims to: 1) report the national incidence of drowning related OHCA's among cases attended by the Danish Emergency Medical Services (EMS), 2) assess survival defined as return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) on scene, by hospital admission and 30-day survival. Furthermore, aspects associated with better outcome are evaluated including actions taken by EMS-personnel and laypersons, geographical localization, type of activity, witnessed event, EMS response times, bystander CPR, initial rhythm, use of defibrillator, airway devices, pre-hospital medication, and patient demographics. This can potentially result in recommendations towards certain educative, preventative, rescue, or treatment strategies to reduce OHCA from drowning.
