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 glycemic index is the ability of carbohydrates in foods to induce increases in blood glucose levels after consuming them. Based on the capacity for increasing blood glucose levels, foods can be classified as having a low, medium, or high glycemic index. This property is of interest in health and nutrition because it allows estimating the impact the food will have on postprandial glycemia, which may able better food selection in situations where adequate glycemic control is required, such as in individuals diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus. The objective of this study is to determine the glycemic index of 9 formulations of complete oral nutrition supplements and classify them based on their glycemic response.
Cervical ripening is a medical treatment that can cause physical or emotional discomfort in pregnant women and is not without risks. This is a pilot study to assess feasibility and calculate the number of participants necessary for a complete clinical trial. The aim is to evaluate whether acupuncture can reduce the need for treatment (cervical ripening) in pregnant women at low or intermediate risk. Participants will be divided into two groups: one group will receive acupuncture, and the other will receive a simulated treatment of acupuncture.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Dato-DXd in combination with rilvegostomig or rilvegostomig monotherapy compared with pembrolizumab monotherapy as a first line therapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression (TC ≥ 50%) and without actionable genomic alterations.
Prospective, comparative, randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the outcomes of trochanteric nailing in unstable hip fractures with and without a distal interlocking screw.
This is a prospective observational study to evaluate the phenotype of 10 patients under 10 years of age with developmental epileptic encephalopathy due to mutation of the STXBP1 gene. The study will consist of a clinical and neurodevelopmental evaluation, magnetic resonance imaging, prolonged electroencephalogram, cardiological study, and analysis of biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid. These patients will be followed up for 3 years. The aim of the study is, knowing the baseline phenotype, to analyse the response to commonly used drugs and to anticipate the response to different drugs available on the market in this group of patients based on clinical and biomarker assessment (EEG, MRI and study of specific proteins and neurotransmitters in plasma, urine and CSF).
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of golcadomide in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy vs placebo in combination with R-CHOP chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated high-risk large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL).
The overall aim of this observational study is to generate real-world evidence on the pre- and post-diagnosis disease journeys, including baseline characteristics, treatment patterns and selected clinical, economic, and humanistic outcomes (for example Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), Neuropathy impairment score, activities of daily living (ADL) assessments) in patients with ATTR amyloidosis, and to better understand how the disease is presented.
The use of the dry needling technique has become widespread in recent years for the treatment of musculoskeletal pain. Although dry needling has been shown to be effective in the treatment of shoulder pain, elbow pain, headache, etc., we do not yet have a clear understanding of the mechanisms of action that justify its beneficial effects. In this study, we propose to analyse the biochemical markers of pain generated by the application of a dry needling technique on the lumbar musculature in patients with mechanical lumbar pain of non-specific origin. The aim of this study will be to evaluate the effects of dry needling technique on the plasmatic concentration of biochemical markers.Furthermore, the test subjects will be randomly distributed into two groups. An experimental group where the subjects will receive a real dry needling technique. Another group will be treated with a sham technique.
Pelvic floor dysfunctions (PFD) are especially prevalent among females who practice and compete in sport. One of the main reason is the great physical effort required to achieve the maximal sports performance. As conservational management, increasing the females' information is an important research line. However, gender stereotypes, embarrassment and normalization among females make it difficult to seek professional care. In this situation, prevention or management of PFD is limited. New technologies could facilitate engaging virtual educational approaches. This study will evaluate the effects of an educational intervention compounded by three sessions (60 min of duration) with one week apart, about PFD, habits related with it, and existing gender stereotypes. To this end, all female who practice and compete in any sport in Spain will be invited to attend an educational online intervention with theoretical-practical content about PFD. As eligibility criteria, participants should train and compete in any sport, and have federative license from regional or national sports federation at the moment of the start of the study. Participants should have at least 16 years old. The investigators expect 400 athletes to fulfill the questionnaires, of which the investigators expect 200 to attend the educational intervention. Before the educational intervention, all females will reply an anonymous questionnaire to inform about their knowledge of PFD, daily practices related to PFD, influencing gender stereotypes and PFD self-reported diagnosis. One month later, this questionnaire will be sent to females (both athletes who attended the educational intervention or not) to describe changes after attending the online educational intervention and compared to those females who did not attend it. The main outcomes will be the level of knowledge about PF, the number of habits potentially related to PFD, and score of gender stereotyped beliefs. As an additional outcome, it will be considered the PFD self-reported symptomatology.
The average age of patients with sepsis has increased in recent years in parallel with the incidence of sepsis. Many of these patients are frail and require various medications for the treatment of their chronic diseases. Common treatments, including e.g. sarcopenic drugs (statins, sulphonylureas, methyglinides), antioxidants that prevent sarcopenia (allopurinol) or immunoregulators (corticosteroids) may influence the survival and functional prognosis of these patients. Knowing which drugs influence sepsis survival and to what degree patients who survive sepsis have functional deterioration and increased comorbidity and which modifiable factors limit this may be essential.
