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.
Randomized parallel study investing the effect of intake of different protein sources (whey, insect and pea) on the muscle protein synthesis. Activation of the signaling pathway leading to muscle protein synthesis is investigated by western blotting and Real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR or PCR). Urine, blood and muscle is moreover investigated by metabolomics analysis.
This study aims to examine the effects of 4 weeks music listening at bedtime on sleep quality during the third trimester of pregnancy.
Investigation of novel swelling media for CE marked intermittent urinary catheters. The study was a randomized, single blinded, cross-over investigation comparing a novel swelling media with a comparator swelling media in 22 adult, healthy, male volunteers.
This is a research study to determine the efficacy and safety of investigational drug MEDI3506 for the treatment of adult subjects with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Chronic Bronchitis.
This study is an observational cross-sectional study which aims to investigate the relationship between treatment with chemotherapy and the development of low levels of testosterone in the blood in patients cured for aggressive lymphoma. We hypothesize that patients in turn will develop sexual dysfunction and poor quality of life because of this reduced level of testosterone. Cancer treatment is increasingly effective and the overall survival higher, which makes issues like sexuality and long-term quality of life more and more important to address in cured cancer patients. Patient sexuality and quality of life is measured by 3 questionnaires filled out once, and serum testosterone by a single blood sample. If serum testosterone is in the lower part of the normal reference interval, patients will be offered further hormonal evaluation by department of growth and reproduction at Copenhagen University Hospital. We hope to show that future follow up visits should include focus on sexuality and serum testosterone. Questionnaires and blood samples can be implemented easily and without great cost.
Vascular postsurgical patients have a high risk of morbidity and mortality. On top of that, patients undergoing vascular surgery usually have a high burden of comorbidities. After a short stay in the post-operative ward, patients are usually transferred to a standard surgical ward. Monitoring of physiological parameters by intermittent manual recordings 8-12 hours apart, is today's standard of care in hospitals. However, no effect on length of hospital stay, morbidity or mortality has been proven. This may be due to the up to 12 hours of unobserved time that can occur, where physiological deviations can progress resulting in clinical adverse outcomes such as myocardial infarction or stroke. Vital sign micro events are occurrences when patient physiological parameters deviates significantly from what can be understood as normal physiology. Since adverse outcomes in patients rarely happens without deviating physiological parameters, it is to be investigated if micro events can be used to predict clinical adverse outcomes to patients. We acknowledge that during the observation period, the number of false alarms should be kept to a minimum to avoid the risk of 'alarm fatigue'
The primary objective of the trial is the confirmation of the efficacy of apraglutide to evaluate the efficacy of weekly subcutaneous apraglutide in reducing parenteral support dependency.
The overall aim of this project is to evaluate the effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and mechanisms of action of two psychoeducational interventions (a face-to-face nurse-led intervention called FOCUS+ and an eHealth intervention called iFOCUS) aimed at improving the emotional function and self-efficacy of patients with advanced cancer and their family caregiver. Both interventions are compared to care as usual. Both interventions focus on teaching dyads optimal ways to jointly manage the implications of advanced cancer and responding to their priority concerns and are designed to be tailored to the specific needs and wishes of the patient-caregiver dyads. Tailoring is based on information about the dyad obtained at enrollment (e.g. age, relationship, etc.) and the responses in the intervention sessions. The overarching aim is addressed by five core intervention components: 1. supporting family involvement and improving the dyads mutual communication, 2. supporting outlook (i.e. increasing the dyad's capacity to identify positive or meaningful aspects related to their situation), 3. increasing dyads' coping skills, i.e. their capacity to identify their coping strategies and take action 4. help dyads reduce their uncertainty 5. teaching symptom management and giving them confidence to handle specific tasks and problems Project objectives: 1. To compare 1) the face-to-face FOCUS+ intervention and 2) the iFOCUS web intervention to 3) care as usual in terms of their: - Effect on the emotional function and self-efficacy (primary outcomes), appraisal of illness, uncertainty, hopelessness, coping, dyad communication, quality of life and healthcare resource use of patients with advanced cancer and their family caregivers - Cost-effectiveness - Effects on vulnerable subgroups (particularly women and those of lower socioeconomic status) - Effectiveness in different healthcare systems 2. To evaluate the implementation process of the interventions in terms of the acceptability, feasibility, usefulness as perceived by patients, family caregivers and healthcare staff in each country, and their mechanisms of action. Data will be collected three times from patient-caregiver dyads: 1) baseline measure (t0) after which the dyad will immediately be randomized to one of the study arms, 2) first follow-up at 12 weeks after baseline (t1) and 3) second follow-up at 24 weeks after baseline (t2).
This is a phase 2, double-blind study to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of NBI-827104 when administered once daily for 13 weeks in pediatric subjects with Epileptic Encephalopathy with Continuous Spike-and-Wave During Sleep (EECSWS).
Comatose patients resuscitated from Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) often develop a complicated systemic inflammatory response and have a poor prognosis with neurological damage being the most common cause of death. This study will investigate the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effect of early treatment with the glucocorticoid methylprednisolone measured by interleukin-6 and neuron-specific enolase levels in resuscitated comatose OHCA-patients.
