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.
This is an observational study in which only data are collected from participants receiving their usual treatment. The study is done in children under 2 years old with venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is a condition in which blood clots form in the veins, usually in the leg. This can cause pain and swelling. The clot can also break apart and travel in the blood to the lungs where it can block the blood flow. This can be life threatening. Rivaroxaban is approved for doctors to prescribe to children with VTE, but there is limited information about how it is used, how well it works, and how safe it is in children under 2 years old. Children in this study are already receiving or will receive rivaroxaban or other currently used medicines for VTE from their doctor according to the approved product information. The purpose of this study is to collect information on the pattern of use and safety of rivaroxaban and other standard medicines for VTE in children under 2 years old. The main information that researchers will collect in this study: - Age, gender, and other information about the child and their illness - Type of VTE treatment given to the child - Occurrence of medically important bleeding and its severity Further information that researchers will collect: - Changes in the characteristics of the children given VTE treatment (e.g., changes in the age range of children given VTE treatment) and changes in the treatment pattern for VTE - Return of VTE symptoms - Types of doctors who prescribe VTE treatment and their set-up (e.g., special clinics versus hospitals) Besides this data collection, no further tests or examinations are needed in this study. The data for this study will be collected from electronic health records and health insurance claims data until 2026. Researchers will observe each child during treatment until: - end of the anticoagulation treatment period e.g. discontinuation of all study drugs, - their information is no longer available, or - the study ends.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if physical activity could improve asthma control and management in adults. With this purpose we enroll asthmatic patients between 18-64 years old, and randomized them into 2 groups: in the first, patients will receive some workshops about asthma en physical exercise; in the second no educational intervention will be done. All patients will use a step counter in order to evaluate their activity during the study. Spirometric values and questionnaries about asthma control and quality of life will be recorded for all patients. Finally 2 groups will be comparated in order to search any difference in quality of life and asthma control.
A Phase 2, multi-center, randomized, controlled, open-label study to evaluate the effects of the intraperitoneal, liposomal formulation VS-01 in patients with an acute episode of hepatic and/or extrahepatic organ dysfunctions and failures in the presence of liver cirrhosis (Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure, ACLF) and accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity (ascites)
This retrospective observational study will evaluate high-dose methotrexate patterns of use, supportive care measures used during high-dose methotrexate chemotherapy, along with the incidence of delayed elimination of methotrexate, acute kidney injury and any associated impact of delayed elimination of methotrexate on future courses of chemotherapy and disease outcomes in adults and children with cancer. The study will compare current practice with existing guidelines and best practices to identify potential gaps in the management of high-dose methotrexate administration and delayed elimination of methotrexate. The study will identify variations in practice and outcomes in different study centers, countries, cancer types, patient age groups, by different methotrexate doses and infusion times and different supportive care measures used. The study will also document the proportion of high-dose methotrexate courses in which glucarpidase has been used and any toxicities attributable to the use of glucarpidase.
Metacognitive abilities and self-knowledge are necessary for psychological maturation and good mental functioning of individuals. It is generally agreed that an adequate representation of oneself and others is essential to establish functional interpersonal relationships. These metacognitive abilities are not adequately developed in patients with various mental health problems, such as personality disorders, eating disorders, psychosis, and depression, and are associated with the severity of the pathology. Self-awareness is a central element that begins to consolidate during adolescence. For that reason, the investigators aim to evaluate the effects of immersive training on the metacognitive abilities and self-knowledge of young people. Based on the repertory grid technique (RGT), our research team has developed a brief immersive training to enhance metacognitive abilities. This intervention facilitates the exploration of personal identity in a safe environment. Specifically, it is an immersion in the person's own world of meanings using Virtual Reality (VR), with the Explore Your Meanings (EYME) tool, a technological platform created to help mental health professionals to enhance the personal development and therapeutic change of their clients. Expected results include an increase in participants' self-concept clarity, metacognition, and reflective function as well as a deeper knowledge about their relationship with various aspects of self-knowledge and self-esteem.
This randomized trial was designed as non-inferiority trial aiming to compare ongoing pregnancy rates following LPS with 600 mg/day vs 800 mg/day vaginal VMP. All patients will undergo an artificial cycle frozen embryo transfer (AC-FET) with transdermal estradiol 6mg/day Patients undergoing an artificial cycle FET will start estrogen priming with transdermal estradiol 6mg/day (Estrogel®) on cycle D1-D3. Following 10-12 days of estrogen priming, patients will be randomized to luteal phase support with a standard formulation (200mg tid, Utrogestan®) or a new formulation (400mg bid) VMP. All patients will undergo a serum P measurement on the day before embryo transfer (ET). Patients with P<10 ng/ml will receive a supplement of oral micronized progesterone 300mg, while patients with P≥10ng/ml will maintain the previous luteal phase support (LPS) protocol
In HIV-infected people with metabolic fatty liver disease and liver fibrosis of any degree, as measured by non-invasive testing, antiretroviral treatment that includes rilpivinire for 18 months results in a slowing of progression and/or reduction of fatty metabolic liver disease, attenuating inflammation and liver fibrosis.
Despite lung transplantation (LTx) being the most effective treatment for end-stage lung disease, its success rate is lower than that of other solid organ transplantations. Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is the most common post-operative complication and a major factor in early mortality and morbidity, affecting ~25% of lung transplant patients. Induced by ischemia reperfusion, PGD represents a severe and acute lung injury that occurs within the first 72 hours after transplantation, and has a significant impact on short- and long-term outcomes, and a significant increase in treatment costs. Any intervention that reduces the risk of PGD will lead to major improvements in short- and long-term transplant outcomes and health care systems. One of the main strategies to reduce the risk and severity of post-transplant PGD is to improve pre-transplant donor lung preservation methods. In current practice, lung preservation is typically performed by cold flushing the organ with a specialized preservation solution, followed by subsequent hypothermic storage on ice (~4°C). This method continues to be used and applied across different organ systems due to its simplicity and low cost. Using this method for the preservation of donor lungs, the current maximum accepted preservation times have been limited to approximately 6-8h. While the goal of hypothermic storage is to sustain cellular viability during ischemic time through reduced cellular metabolism, lower organ temperature has also been shown to progressively favor mitochondrial dysfunction. Therefore, the ideal temperature for donor organ preservation remains to be defined and should maintain a balance between avoidance of mitochondrial dysfunction and prevention of cellular exhaustion. In addition to that, safe and longer preservation times can lead to multiple advantages such as moving overnight transplants to daytime, more flexibility to transplant logistics, more time for proper donor to recipient matching etc. Building on pre-clinical research suggesting that 10°C may be the optimal lung storage temperature, a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized clinical trial was conducted at University Health Network, Medical University of Vienna and Puerta de Hierro Majadahonda University Hospital. Donor lungs meeting criteria for direct transplantation and with cross clamp times between 6:00pm - 4:00am were intentionally delayed to an earliest allowed start time of 6:00am and a maximum preservation time from donor cold flush to recipient anesthesia start time of 12 hours. Lungs were retrieved and transported in the usual fashion using a cooler with ice and transferred to a 10°C temperature-controlled cooler upon arrival to transplant hospital until implantation. The primary outcome of this study was incidence of Primary Graft Dysfunction (PGD) Grade 3 at 72h, with secondary endpoints including: recipient time on the ventilator, ICU Length of Stay (LOS), hospital LOS, 30-day survival and lung function at 1-year. Outcomes were compared to a contemporaneous conventionally transplanted recipient cohort using propensity score matching at a 1:2 ratio. 70 patients were included in the study arm. Post-transplant outcomes were comparable between the two groups for up to 1 year. Thus, intentional prolongation of donor lung preservation at 10°C was shown to be clinically safe and feasible. In the current study design, the investigators will conduct a multi-centre, non-inferiority, randomized, controlled trial of 300 participants to compare donor lung preservation from the time of explant to implant at ~10°C in X°Port Lung Transport Device (Traferox Technologies Inc.) vs a standard ice cooler. When eligible donor lungs become available for a consented recipient, the lungs will be randomized to undergo a preservation protocol using either 10°C (X°Port Lung Transport Device, Traferox Technologies Inc.) or standard of care. The primary outcome of the study is incidence of ISHLT Primary Graft Dysfunction Grade 3 at 72 hours. Post-transplant outcomes will be followed for one year.
The glenohumeral joint has the highest rate of dislocation of the whole body, due to its high mobility and the special characteristics of its anatomy. It is estimated that every year between 1-2% of the population will suffer from glenohumeral dislocation. The vast majority of studies are based on young patients under the age of 40, given that at this age they have the higher incidence and at the same time, they have higher redislocation index. However, the investigators are in front of a more active population with a longer life expectancy. That is why the cases of anterior glenohumeral dislocations are increasing in people older than 40 years. Given that most studies focus on younger patients, the investigators lack knowledge about which injuries are associated with dislocation at this age and whether these influence its clinical evolution.
The consumption of the improved extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) of the Corbella variety could have a beneficial effect on the microbiota-intestine-brain axis (MGBA). Olive oil contains polyphenols that are not present in other oils, notably oleocanthal and oleacein, which behave similarly to ibuprofen and have a protective effect on some neurodegenerative diseases. The polyphenols of the oil present prebiotic characteristics, at the level of the intestinal microbiota, which metabolizes them forming bioactive metabolites that can have a modulating effect on the MGBA, improving brain health. In this study, the researchers seek to identify the benefits of the consumption of Corbella variety EVOO on MGBA in healthy participants. The overall benefit of the study would be to achieve knowledge that would allow its future applicability to prevent and improve certain diseases and in general contribute to optimal health.
