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.
The general objective of the study was to evaluate the impact of two emotional regulation programs, one standardized and face-to-face (MBSR: Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) and, another, implemented through a mobile phone application (REM_Volver a casa; ERBM_Back home: Emotional Regulation Based on Mindfulness), on the quality of life, the state emotional and psychological and biological variables associated with stress, in a sample of patients with ICD (implantable cardioverter defibrillator). The working hypotheses were that after training in emotional regulation, patients with ICD would have better quality of life, lower symptoms of anxiety, depression and hostility, and lower incidence of ventricular arrhythmias than patients in the control group, as well as that there would be no differences between the two tools used for training.

Flavonoids are polyphenolic compound mainly found in fruits and vegetables with numerous beneficial health effects as protection against cardiovascular diseases by an antihypertensive effect. The intestinal microbiota plays a key role in the metabolization of these compounds, so that differences in the composition and activity of the microbiota between individuals can generate different metabotypes. Flavonoids are found mainly in their conjugated form linked to the monosaccharide rhamnose and need to be metabolized by the intestinal bacteria, releasing the rhamnose, to be absorbed and, thus, bioactive. The bacterial enzyme responsible of rhamnose hydrolysis is α-L-rhamnosidase, whose activity can vary considerably depending on the composition of the microbiota. In fact, a great interindividual variability has been observed in the ability to absorb flavonoids, which allows to classify individuals according to the corresponding metabotype. In a previous project, the investigators confirmed the interindividual differences in the bioavailability of hesperidin and narirutin, two flavonoids naturally present in orange juice. However, the role of the intestinal microbiota in the metabolism of hesperidin and narirutin needs to be elucidated. On this basis, the following hypothesis is presented: individuals with arterial hypertension can be classified into 3 different metabotypes that are the result of the ability to absorb hesperidin and narirutin, determined by the urinary excretion of their respective metabolites, and these metabotypes are associated with different microbiota enterotypes and with different fecal α-L-rhamnosidase activity.
This is a 2-part, phase 3 clinical study evaluating the antiretroviral activity and safety/tolerability of islatravir (ISL), doravirine (DOR), and a fixed dose combination (FDC) of DOR/ISL (also known as MK-8591A) in heavily treatment-experienced (HTE) participants with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. It is hypothesized that the percentage of participants receiving DOR/ISL to achieve ≥0.5 log10 decrease in HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) from study baseline (Day 1) to Day 8 is superior to placebo, each given in combination with failing antiretroviral therapy (ART).
Observational retrospective study about effectiveness and safety of insulin Faster Aspart on continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion treated adult Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) patients in routine clinical practice.
Evaluation of the Acceptability and Efficacy of 10 Micrograms of Estradiol Vaginal Tablets vs Promestriene Vaginal Cream in postmenopausal women aged 45 years or older, with one or more moderate to severe symptoms of vulvovaginal atrophy (dryness, dyspareunia, soreness or irritation).
This study evaluates the ability of endoscopists to perform a complete optical diagnosis of colorectal polyps between 5 and 15 mm, and the impact of the only endoscopic diagnosis on the follow-up program for those patients. This is a prospective study in which we compare the diagnosis regarding size and histology made by the endoscopist versus de pathologic diagnosis.
Great trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a difficult problem to manage and results in significant patient morbidity. This study is a single-center, randomized double-blind controlled trial. Eighty patients will be allocated to have an ultrasound (US)-guided injection of pure platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or needle tenotomy. Outcome data will be collected before the intervention, and at 3, 6, and 12 months after intervention. Main outcome measure: percent of patients that experience a reduction of 25% in hip outcome score (HOS) (responders) at 6 months after the intervention. Secondary outcome measures include percent of responders at three and twelve months, and pain reduction (VAS) at 3, 6, and 12 months. Adverse reactions or events will be recorded.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the peri-implant crestal bone level around implants placed 1.5 mm subcrestally, with a 1 mm or 3 mm definitive abutment height at the time of implant placement after 1 year. Patients were selected from the Department of Periodontology at Universitat Internacional de Catalunya. X-rays were taken at the time of implant placement, 8-12 weeks after placement, after screwing the provisional rehabilitation and at 12 months. An examiner indicated the crestal marginal bone level, the marginal bone level of the implant, and the marginal bone level of the abutment . The examiner, independent to the study, carried out the radiographic analysis using the Image J software on periapical radiographs.
Volleyball players have a high injury risk as a consequence of the specific sport characteristics, as repetitive jumps and falls. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of a multidisciplinary injury prevention program on lower limb stability in young volleyball players. It was spected to improve the stability of the lowe limb and, as a consecuence, to reduce the injury risk of the most common injuries in volleyball.
