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 aim of this study is to investigate the degree of match between the drug allergy label in the hospital's electronic health record and primary care's electronic health record among patients who previously have been drug allergy tested.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of IMB-1018972 in subjects with obstructive CAD and inducible ischemia.
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common malignant disease in childhood. Today more than 90% of children and 75% of adults (18-45 years) survive ALL. The enzyme Asparaginase (Asp) is an indispensable part of the multiagent treatment of ALL. Treatment related severe acute toxicities are common. Especially in teenagers and adults, thromboembolism is one of the most common acute toxicities and may result in post thrombotic syndrome (PTS) or pulmonary hypertension. The knowledge about these late effects is limited, including for ALL patients.
Preeclampsia (PE) affects approximately 5% of all pregnancies with 2,500 cases registered annually in Denmark. PE is characterized by incomplete modelling of the spiral arteries of the uterus, hypertension, inflammation, hypercoagulability and proteinuria. Neonatal complications and increased cardiovascular risk are common features of the syndrome. PE shares pathophysiologic features with recognized protein misfolding disorders and misfolded proteins are present in urine from women with PE. Misfolded proteins are potent activators of the contact system (CAS) which is involved in inflammation, coagulation and fibrinolysis. Plasminogen activator inhibitor 2 (PAI-2) regulates important fibrinolytic processes in the placenta. The oxidative milieu characterizing PE may trigger misfolding of PAI-2 which then loose inhibitory capacity, but gain CAS-activating capacity. Thus, misfolding of PAI-2 may affect the fibrinolytic system in the placenta and compromise the modelling of the spiral arteries. Moreover, misfolded PAI-2 may contribute to the hypercoagulability and the inflammatory conditions characterizing women with PE. The aim of the present study is i) to characterize CAS in women with PE, ii) to study the CAS-activating capacity of misfolded PAI-2 and iii) to develop and apply immunochemical methods for determination of native and misfolded PAI-2 in plasma.
This study seeks to identify and test host RNA expression profiles as markers for infections in young infants. Preliminary studies have shown high sensitivity and specificity for the discrimination of bacterial from non-bacterial infections in children, but the method has only been investigated in a limited number of young infants. The study aims to include 65 young infants with serious bacterial infections. The samples will be analysed by RNA sequencing. New diagnostic tools may help reduce unnecessary antibiotic treatment, antibiotic resistance, side-effects, hospitalisation and invasive procedures.
The project is designed as a randomized controlled intervention trial in which 60 young trained (n = 30) (Population A) and recreationally active (n = 30) women (Population B) with regular menstruation are divided into four groups. Population A will receive a low-calorie diet + exercise or an energy balanced diet + exercise over 10 days. Population B will receive a low-calorie diet without exercise, or an energy balanced diet over 10 days. The participants are matched in pairs based on training history and randomized. Before the diet period, the groups will undergo a 6-day control period, during which all participants must take an energy-balanced diet (± training). After the 10 days of the diet intervention period, the groups will receive an energy-balanced diet for 2 days. Before, during, and after the trial period, participants will perform performance tests. In addition, 3 muscle biopsies, 2 adipose biopsies, blood samples, urine samples will be taken during the period, as well as resting metabolic rate, electrocardiogram, flow-mediated vasodilation, and body composition over the trial period. Muscle protein synthesis rate will be measured over the period using stable isotope technique, which includes ingestion of heavy water (D2O) and collection of saliva samples daily (days 0 to 16). The primary measurement parameter is changes in muscle protein synthesis rate.
Patients with chronic pouchitis is disabled by bloody diarrhoea and abdominal pain often followed by fever. Pouchitis is an inflammation in a pouch, a reservoir formed by the small intestine in the management of the chronic inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis. The standard treatment for pouchitis is intensive broad-spectrum antibiotics for a longer period. However, the treatment often fails after repeated treatments. Studies show that patients with pouchitis have an altered composition of the gut microbiota compared to healthy individuals and patients with a pouch without inflammation. As shown by several studies, faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) with administration of faeces from healthy donors can alter the microbiota. Treatment with faecal microbiota transplantation to chronic pouchitis has been investigated in several clinical trials with mixed results. It is however still uncertain if faecal microbiota transplantation using stool from healthy individuals with a colon is optimal, or if stool from patient with a normally functioning pouch should be used. The study primary aims to investigate if transplantation of faeces from patient with a normal pouch function can induce clinical remission in patients with chronic pouchitis.
The investigators will investigate the beneficial and harmful effects of combining dexamethasone (12 mg) and dexmedetomidine (1mcg/kg) as adjuncts to popliteal and saphenous nerve blocks in patients undergoing surgery of their foot or ankle.
Investigators will assess if perineural dexamethasone can increase the duration of an ulnar nerve block when controlling for systemic effects in healthy volunteers.
The investigators aim to investigate whether exercise therapy during 12 weeks including a lesson on general healthy lifestyle in adult patients with a moderately active disease is more effective, compared to control patients only receiving a lesson on general healthy lifestyle recommendations. The three main categories of outcomes are 1) health-related quality of life, 2) general health status of the patients 3) explorative outcomes. The primary outcome is health-related quality of life, the secondary outcome is general health status measured by waist circumference, disease activity scores, blood pressure, and blood lipids, and the third outcome are explorative outcomes (none-disease specific quality of life scores, biomarkers of C-reactive protein, fecal calprotectin and immunology markers including interleukins).
