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 purpose of the study is to compare the effect of a Adductor Canal Blockade (ACB) vs a Femoral Nerve Blockade (FNB), on muscle strength, mobility and pain in patients with severe pain (VAS pain score > 60) after Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA.
The goal of the study is to examine if healthy individuals that ingest St John's wort will have a significantly difference in glucose tolerance.
The prevalence and consequences of musculoskeletal pain is considerable among healthcare workers, allegedly due to high physical work demands of healthcare work. Previous studies have shown promising results of physical exercise for relieving pain among different occupational groups, but the question remains whether such physical exercise should be performed at the workplace or in the private sphere at home. Performing physical exercise at the workplace together with colleagues may be more motivating for some employees and thus increase compliance. On the other hand, physical exercise at the workplace may be costly for the employers in terms of time spend. Thus, relevant ground exists to compare the efficacy of workplace- versus home-based training on musculoskeletal pain. This study investigates the effect of workplace-based versus home-based physical exercise on musculoskeletal pain among healthcare workers. The main hypothesis is that physical exercise at the workplace for 10 weeks compared with physical exercise at home results in reduced musculoskeletal pain among healthcare workers.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether outpatient cesarean section can be performed in multiparous women without significant decrease in the parents' sense of security .
This is a 3 part study for patients with solid tumours. The purpose of Part A is to measure the amount of olaparib or its breakdown products in the bloodstream for up to 72 hours after eating and the effect of olaparib on QT interval following a single oral dose of olaparib tablets. Part B will determine the effect of olaparib on the QT interval following multiple oral dosing. Part C will allow patients continued access to olaparib tablets and will provide additional safety data collection.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of LCZ696 compared to valsartan in the reduction of cardiovascular death and heart failure(HF) hospitalizations in patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction.
Diabetes mellitus type I (DMI) is characterized by lack of endogenous insulin and these patients are 100% dependent on insulin substitution to survive. Diabetes mellitus type II (DMII) is characterized by reduced insulin sensitivity and sometimes also reduced insulin production, thus patients with DMII might also be dependent on insulin substitution. Insulin is produced in- and secreted from the pancreas when blood glucose concentration rises during- and after a meal. Insulin increases cellular uptake of glucose leading to lower blood glucose concentration. Substitution with insulin is/can be necessary in DM, but at the same time it induces the risk of hypoglycemia. This makes treatment with insulin a balancing act between hyper- and hypoglycemia. A hypoglycemic episode is a dreaded consequence of insulin overdosing, and also a very frequent reason for hospital admission in patients with DM. Examples of hypoglycemic symptoms may be; shaking, a sense of hunger, sweating, irritability progressing to lack of relevant cerebral responses and eventually coma, convulsions and possibly death. People with diabetes lose the ability to sense of low blood glucose with time, because of a lack of appropriate counter-regulatory responses, hereby increasing the risk of severe hypoglycemia. Understanding normal physiologic counter regulatory mechanisms during hypoglycemia is of major importance to patients with DM and has the potential to change medical treatment in diabetes, to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia. Hypothesis: Hypoglycemia counteracts insulin signaling via hormone-dependent intracellular counter-regulatory mechanisms, involving phosphorylation of specific signaling proteins. Aim: To define counter-regulatory mechanisms in muscle- and fat tissue during hypoglycemia, and to investigate the effect of insulin on lipid metabolism in healthy- and type I diabetic subjects.
This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group Phase 2 trial of Sprifermin administered intra-articularly in participants with primary osteoarthritis of the knee and Kellgren-Lawrence Grade 2 or 3. The trial was intended to investigate the efficacy and safety of different intra articular dosages of Sprifermin in these individuals.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the production, effects and interactions of the hepato-protective cytokine interleukine (IL)-22 in patients with alcoholic hepatitis.
Children born to obese women are at risk of increased adiposity and later adverse metabolic outcomes. We have conducted a follow-up study on an existing clinical trial, called the LiP study (Lifestyle in Pregnancy), registration number NCT00530439,in which 360 obese pregnant women were randomized to either lifestyle intervention or routine obstetric care. This present study follows the children until 3 years of age. We have the hypothesis, that the intervention during pregnancy results in a lower degree of adiposity and metabolic risk factors in the offspring. Clinical examination is taking place at age 2.5-3 years including anthropometric measurements, Dual energy x-ray (DXA) scans and blood samples measuring metabolic markers.In addition, we have included an extra control group of children born to normal weight women, who were not part of a lifestyle intervention program during pregnancy. We have the hypothesis that the children of the normal weight women have a better metabolic profile than the children born to the obese women.
