NCT ID: NCT01739569 Completed - Clinical trials for Nutrition Intervention

Effect of Healthy Lunch and Snack Meal on Reaction Time and Well-being of Physicians and Nursing Staff (Go-No-Go)

Start date: August 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of increased availability of healthy food and drink during working hours on reaction time and well-being in physicians and nursing staff. Hospital medical staff often works long and hectic hours, without adequate meal or rest breaks in order to provide 24-hour care. This is a concern, as not only the staff's well-being is important to the individual welfare, but it is also vital to the quality and safety of the care their patients receive. The investigators believe that by focusing on physicians and nursing staffs nutrition the investigators will see a positive effect on staff performance and well-being - and thus ultimately possibly on patient safety. Hypothesis: The provision of healthy lunch and snack meal during working hours for a period of 4 weeks will improve reaction time and well-being compared to habitual diet in physicians, nurses and nursing assistants.

NCT ID: NCT01739283 Completed - Hypoglycemia Clinical Trials

GIP and GLP-1 in Type 1 Diabetes

Start date: July 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Investigation of Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) effects at hyper and hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetes.

NCT ID: NCT01739153 Completed - Hyperlipidemia Clinical Trials

Effect of Cheese on Cardiovascular Risk

ECCA
Start date: January 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The main objective of the current study is to examine whether a high intake of regular-fat cheeses (Danbo and Cheddar) affect blood lipids differently than an isocaloric intake of either other fatty animal food products or of starchy carbohydrates. Furthermore, effects on fat digestibility, blood pressure, anthropometry, bile acid metabolism and insulin sensitivity is investigated. To do this, a randomized crossover intervention study with 3x14 days full diet periods (cheese diet, meat diet or carb diet)will be conducted in 16 postmenopausal women. Between the diet periods there will be at least 14 days of wash-out where the subjects eat their habitual diets. Fasting blood samples will be drawn before and after the diet periods, and also a non-fasting blood sample will be drawn after the diet periods. Furthermore, total feces is collected the last 5 days of each diet period.

NCT ID: NCT01739075 Completed - Myocardial Ischemia Clinical Trials

Assessment of Coronary Stenoses Using Coronary CT-angiography and Non-invasive Fractional Flow Reserve Measurement.

Start date: March 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a novel non-invasive method to estimate coronary blood flow (FFRct) is applicable to evaluate the functional significance of coronary stenoses in non-culprit vessels in a population of patients with recent STEMI (ST-elevation myocardial infarction) and multivessel disease. The diagnostic performance and reproducibility of FFRct as well as the qualitative and quantitative correlation between FFRct and the regional coronary blood flow will be examined.

NCT ID: NCT01738958 Completed - Caries Dentalis Clinical Trials

Effect of Lozenges Containing Probiotic Lactobacilli on Enamel Demineralization Assed by QLF

Start date: September 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Clinical trials in children and adults have suggested that daily consumption of probiotic lactic acid bacteria can reduce caries risk and caries development in primary teeth in preschool and stop root caries in the elderly. However, it is not known whether probiotic bacteria can affect the increased porosity in young permanent teeth in children and adolescents with many cavities. It can be difficult to measure the increased porosity of the enamel by tooth decay, but this can be done using quantitative laser fluorescence (QLF). The method is based on visible light with a wavelength of 370 nm, addressing enamel. This produces an image consisting of red and green color tones and the dominant color of the enamel is green. Increased porosity of the enamel, resulting in a reduction of the auto-fluorescence and the loss (or gain) of the mineral can be quantified by means of a corresponding software. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a daily supplement of probiotic lactic acid bacteria on the loss of mineral in enamel assessed with QLF. The null hypothesis is that the mineral content will not differ from baseline in either the test group or the placebo group.

NCT ID: NCT01738932 Completed - Endometriosis Clinical Trials

Genetic Polymorphisms of Mannan-binding Lectin (MBL)and Serum Levels of MBL in Patients With Endometriosis

Start date: December 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of the study is to investigate the possible association between low levels of MBL and the development of endometriosis

NCT ID: NCT01738529 Completed - Crohn Disease Clinical Trials

Characterization of Crohn's Disease at Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (CLE) and Related to Disease Activity

Start date: November 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A blinded prospective observation and methodology study with Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (CLE) together with standard white light colonoscopy including inter- and intra-observation of patients with Crohn's disease.

NCT ID: NCT01738048 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Persistent Pain After Reconstruction Following Mastectomy

Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

A cross sectional study to determine the prevalence of persistent pain after reconstructive surgery after mastectomy for breast cancer, with a comparative analysis of a cohort treated with mastectomy without reconstruction.

NCT ID: NCT01738035 Completed - Clinical trials for Primary IgA Nephropathy

The Effect of Nefecon® in Patients With Primary IgA Nephropathy at Risk of Developing End-stage Renal Disease

NEFIGAN
Start date: December 2012
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The objective of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of two different doses of NEFECON in the treatment of patients with primary IgA nephropathy (IgAN) at risk of developing end-stage renal disease, under rigorous blood pressure control with an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and/or angiotensin II receptor I blocker (ARB).

NCT ID: NCT01735760 Completed - Clinical trials for Focus: Localizing the Cricothyroid Membrane Before Airway Management

Ultrasound Examination Versus Palpation to Locate the Cricothyroid Membrane

Start date: November 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Anesthesiologists get a course on localizing the cricothyroid membrane on a human using ultrasonography. Thereafter their ability to localize the cricothyroid membrane with either palpation or ultrasonography, in a randomised fashion, is tested.
