There are about 21071 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Spain. 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.
At the end of January 2020, the international community was informed of the presence of a new viral disease that started in Wuhan (China) and spread rapidly throughout the world. The identified virus belonged to the coronavirus family (SARS-CoV-2) and the disease was named COVID-19. Today there are more than 2 million people diagnosed in Spain and more than 40 thousand in Extremadura. The partial knowledge about the development, evolution of the affected citizenship and their prognosis both early and late makes it necessary to analyze in depth their global and particular characteristics. We will carry out a multicenter, observational, descriptive, cross-sectional and longitudinal study of patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 virus infection in the Community of Extremadura to determine the effectiveness of drug treatments and the clinical and evolutionary characteristics of these patients and the different factors that may influence its evolution.
The purpose of the study is to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability of treatment with zibotentan and dapagliflozin in combination and dapagliflozin 10 mg as monotherapy in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 20 mL/min/1.73 m^2, and urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥ 150 mg/g and ≤ 5000 mg/g.
This Phase III study will assess whether AZD7442 (a combination of 2 mAbs) can safely treat outpatient adults with COVID-19 and prevent either severe COVID-19 or death.
This Phase 2 study is conducted to investigate the safety and efficacy of runcaciguat in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy. To assess efficacy, the retinal morphology will be investigated by 7-field color fundus photography for central assessment of the diabetic retinopathy severity score, or DRSS. Two-step DRSS improvement at 24 weeks of treatment will be the primary efficacy endpoint. DRSS assessments are repeated after completion of 48 weeks of treatment. In addition, vision threatening complications will be recorded throughout the study and assessed as secondary efficacy endpoint.
This study aims to compare the efficacy, in terms of progesterone levels and clinical outcomes, of two different presentations of micronized vaginal progesterone (400 mg vs. 200 mg) used in endometrial preparation in artificial cycle (AC) for embryo transfer. This is a non-inferiority, retrospective case-control study, with at least 200 cycles analyzed (at least 100 per arm) and the primary outcome is the serum progesterone level on the day of the embryo transfer.
Background. Dyspeptic patients tolerate smaller meal loads than healthy subjects, but it is not known whether and to what extent symptoms relate to abnormal homeostatic or hedonic components of perception. Methods. Parallel studies in patients with symptoms induced by meals (fulfilling Rome IV criteria of postprandial dyspepsia) and sex- and age-matched healthy subjects. Participants will be instructed to eat a standard dinner the day before, to consume a standard breakfast at home after overnight fast, and to report to the laboratory, where the test meal will be administered 4 h after breakfast. Studies will be conducted in a quiet, isolated room with participants sitting on a chair. Participants will ingest a probe meal up to the level of maximal satiation. The probe meal will be served stepwise (112 Kcal every 5 min). Perception of homeostatic (hunger/satiation, fullness) and hedonic (digestive well-being, mood) sensations will be measured at 5 min intervals 10 min before, during and 20 min after ingestion at 10 min intervals.
Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive endoscopic technique that allows direct visualization of the uterine cavity and constitutes the gold standard for the diagnosis and treatment of most intrauterine pathology, such as heavy menstrual bleeding, fibroids, endometrial polyps, uterine malformations, etc. The "see and treat" strategy allows diagnosis and treatment in the same surgical act, and gives the technique a high resolution capacity, reducing the number of procedures the patient must undergo. The technological development of instruments has made it possible to have small-caliber endoscopic systems that have made this technique possible in an outpatient setting. Outpatient management allows patients to avoid the possible risks and inconveniences associated with the surgical environment, such as the waiting list and the need for anesthesia, as well as an earlier return to their activities of daily life. Despite the high resolution rates, a not inconsiderable percentage of women experience anxiety or pain during outpatient hysteroscopy, and this is the leading cause of treatment failure. In order to improve the tolerance and comfort of the patient, the usefulness of various strategies, both pharmacological and non-pharmacological, has been evaluated for pain reduction, with different results. Virtual Reality (VR) has been used successfully to reduce perceived pain in various procedures such as chronic pain, burns, dental processes, chronic pruritus or venipuncture. There is no published study to our knowledge that evaluates the usefulness of VR in reducing the levels of anxiety and pain perceived during a hysteroscopic procedure. The working hypothesis to be evaluated with this study is that the use of a VR device with reproduction of relaxing and distraction environments reduces the perception of pain and anxiety of the patient during an outpatient hysteroscopy.
Investigation of power and speed in relation to the increasing instability in a group of untrained athletes and a group of expert athletes. In this way, the effectiveness of unstable training for different types of athletes can be tested. Our hypothesis is that as instability increases there is a gradual decrease in power and speed of execution, but not too relevant in the expert group.
It is presented a further refinement in palmar hyperhidrosis's surgical treatment to improve results and reduce side effects, mainly compensatory hyperhidrosis. It seems that a more selective sympathetic system lesion, namely a selective T3 and T4 gray rami communicantes lesion, allows retaining some residual sweating in the hands without inducing compensatory sweating in the abdomen, thighs, and feet. The result is greater patient satisfaction. There has been a long journey since Wittmosser et al. suggested the technique of gray and white ramicotomy in 1992. In this way, the attending physicians have refined the surgical procedure progressively. The two last research groups reporting their results with selective gray ramicotomy (the idea now is not to lesion the white rami communicantes) entailed extensive lesions (T2 to T4/T5). This study shows that a more selective T3 and T4 selective gray ramicotomy achieves excellent results with fewer side effects. Thus, it is a further step toward improving outcomes, reducing side effects, and increasing patients' satisfaction. Additionally, the present work has concentrated on objective ways to measure compensatory hyperhidrosis by measuring the sweat production in milliliters of water and the temperature changes in degrees Celsius. This accurate measurement removes the subjectivity induced when we base the results on the treating physicians' opinions or the patients themselves. The objective measurement of the sweat production in milliliters of water and temperature rise in degrees Celsius has allowed the research group to reach conclusions independent of opinions both from treating physicians and patients themselves. Also, a more selective gray rami communicantes lesion can achieve better results with less compensatory hyperhidrosis and with better patient's satisfaction
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare cancer caused by abnormal survival of plasma cells (blood cells). Most trial participants with MM relapse (cancer has come back) or become non- responsive to treatment and remission gets shorter after each line of treatment. This is a study to assess t(11;14) and BCL2 expression in adult participants with newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. Approximately 500 adult participants with newly confirmed or relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM) will be enrolled in around 15-20 countries. Participants will receive standard of care while participating in this study. No drug will be administered as a part of this study. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic and will be asked to provide bone marrow and blood samples.
