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 project NUSHI is to elucidate, that radial sheath insertion can be performed by nurses and physicians with the same level of comfort and safety.
This is a multicentre, pragmatic, randomised controlled trial to estimate the effect of a 4-month gym-based exercise training program on 1) patient-rated personal recovery (primary outcome), 2) Health-related quality of life, behavioral and functional symptoms, and cardiometabolic risk factors (secondary outcomes) in young adults with psychotic disorders. Four-hundred antipsychotic-treated young adults (between the age of 18 and 35), who are capable to undertake an exercise program (potentially with a friend or family member where possible) will be recruited from outpatient treatment units and mental health services. Participants will be randomised to treatment as usual or exercise at a 2:1 ratio in favor of exercise. Outcomes will be measured at baseline and at 4, 6 and 12 months after randomisation, by researchers masked to participant allocation.
The purpose of the current study is to investigate whether dual mobility liners are non-inferior til constrained liners regarding the post-operative hip joint dislocation risk following total hip replacement in patients with metastatic bone disease of the hip.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat children who have chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is long-term kidney disease, and proteinuria, a condition in which a person´s kidneys leak protein into the urine. The kidneys filter waste and fluid from the blood to form urine. In children with CKD, the kidney´s filters do not work as well as they should. This can lead to accumulation of waste and fluid in the body and proteinuria. CKD can lead to other medical problems, such as high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. Vice versa, hypertension and proteinuria can also contribute to worsening of CKD. Therefore, the treatment of CKD aims to control blood pressure and proteinuria. There are treatments available for doctors to prescribe to children with CKD and hypertension and/or proteinuria. These include "angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors" (ACEI) and "angiotensin receptor blockers" (ARB). Both ACEI and ARB can help improve kidney function by reducing the activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). The RAAS is a system that works with the kidneys to control blood pressure and the balance of fluid and electrolytes in the blood. In people with CKD, the RAAS is often too active, which can impair the ability of the kidneys to work properly and cause hypertension and proteinuria. However, ACEI or ARB treatment alone does not work for all patients with CKD as they only target the angiotensin part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. The study treatment, finerenone, is expected to help control RAAS overactivation together with an ACEI or ARB. So, the researchers in this study want to learn more about whether finerenone given in addition to either an ACEI or ARB can help their kidney function. The main purpose of this study is to learn how safe the treatment is when used of finerenone in addition to an ACEI or ARB in long-term. To see how safe the treatment is, the study team will collect information on medical problems which are also known as "treatment emergent adverse events" (TEAEs). And they will also collect levels of an electrolyte called potassium in the blood by taking blood samples, and measure blood pressure during the study. The secondary purpose of this study is to learn how well long-term use of finerenone can reduce the amount of protein in the participants' urine and benefit kidney function when taken with standard of care. To see how the treatment works, the study team will collect participants' urine samples to assess urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) and urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR), which are important assessments for calculating the level of protein in the urine. Researchers will also collect blood samples to analyze serum creatinine and calculate estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). A significant decline in eGFR indicates worsening kidney function. The study will include participants who had previously participated in FIONA study (NCT05196035). The participants will be aged from 1 year up to 18 years. The participants will be in the study for approximately 19 months. They will take study treatment for up to 18 months and will be follow up for 1 month. During this period, at least 12 visits are planned for patients who newly start finerenone, and at least 8 visits for patients who already received finerenone. In the visit, the study team will: - have their blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, height and weight measured - have blood and urine samples taken - have physical examinations - have their heart examined by an electrocardiogram and echocardiography (a sonogram of the heart) - answer questions about their medication and whether they have any adverse events, or have their parents or guardian's answer - answer questions about how they are feeling, or have their parents or guardian's answer - answer question about how they like the study medication, or have their parents or guardian's answer The doctors will keep track of any adverse events. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if they do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments. The doctors will check the participants' health about 30 days after the participants take their last treatment.
Worldwide infertility is highly prevalent and lifestyle factors, such as food intake, could have an essential role in the success of a fertility treatment. The literature is not consistent and adequate for recommendations to the increasing number of women and men of reproductive age who ask for lifestyle guidance. Therefore, the aims of the Food & Fertility study will be to investigate the association between food intake and semen quality, pregnancy- and live birth rates in women and men undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment.
Automatic oxygen supply with the O2matic device has been shown to provided an enhanced oxygen treatment in patients with hypoxemia. O2matic was significantly better than manual control to maintain oxygen saturation within target interval and to reduce time with unintended hypoxemia in patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. This trial investigates the effect of using O2matic in hypoxic patients submitted to the Department of Cardiology.
Medication overuse headache (MOH) is a type of headache caused by excessive use of acute headache or migraine medications (medications used to treat a headache or migraine once it begins). Treatment of MOH usually involves reducing the dose of or discontinuing acute medications. Eptinezumab is a medication used for the preventive treatment of migraine in adults. The main goals of this trial are to learn whether eptinezumab helps reduce the number of days with migraine, the number of days with headache, and acute medication use in adults who have migraine and MOH.
Primary objectives: The purpose of this study is to identify single and composite biomarkers (from neuroimaging, electrophysiological, and non-imaging biological measures), clinical measures (from cognitive, psychometric, and behavioral test scores), and risk/protective factors (e.g., from medical history, socioeconomic status, coping, lifestyle) that can: 1. Predict antiseizure medication (ASM) treatment outcome, psychiatric, cognitive, or behavioral comorbidities, and quality of life in newly diagnosed epilepsy patients (Cohort II-III). 2. Predict a second epileptic seizure/epilepsy diagnosis and behavioral, cognitive, psychiatric dysfunction and quality of life in patients after a first epileptic seizure (Cohort I).
It is currently unclear if immediate curative treatment (radiotherapy or surgery) of high-risk prostate cancer without metastasis in older men (>=75 years) generates the same survival benefits as in younger patients or if the harms/ side-effects of immediate curative treatment outweigh the benefits. In this study the investigators randomize older patients with high-risk, non-metastatic high-risk prostate cancer to either immediate curative therapy or to conservative, more problem-oriented therapy to investigate if immediate curative treatment prolongs life, improves quality of life and is cost-effective.
This is a randomized controlled trial comparing the DELTA Xtend Reverse Shoulder System Lateralized Glenosphere Line Extension (intervention group) with the standard DELTA Xtend Reverse Shoulder System (control group). All Danish citizens with rotator cuff arthropathy or degeneration of the glenohumeral joint with severe posterior wear indicating a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty referred to the orthopedic department at Herlev and Gentofte Hospital, Copenhagen University Hospital will be considered for participation in the trial. The following exclude from participation in the study: Below 50 years of age; Cognitive or linguistic impairment; insufficient glenoid bone stock; previous fracture in the upper extremities; autoimmune mediated inflammatory arthritis.A total of 122 patients will be included of which 56 will be part of the roentgen radiostereometric analysis. This will allow a maximum of 20% drop out. The primary outcome is magnitude and pattern of migration of the glenoid component and functional outcome by Western Ontario Osteoarthritis of the Shoulder Index (WOOS score). The secondary outcomes are position of arthroplasty, loosening, inferior scapular notching, patient-reported outcomes, functional outcome, readmission, complications, revisions, changes in bone mineral density of the proximal humerus assessed by duel energy x-ray absorptiometry and economy (cost utility analysis). The patients are examined before the operation and 1 week and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after the operation.
