NCT ID: NCT03844802 Completed - Neck Pain Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Dry Needling in Chronic Neck Pain.

Start date: March 25, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Objectives: To investigate the effect of combining real or placebo dry needling with therapeutic exercise in self-reported pain, pressure pain sensitivity, neck disability, global rating of change (GROC) scale, muscle viscoelastic properties (muscle tone and stiffness) and left/right discrimination ability in adults with chronic non-specific neck pain. Design: Quantitative, experimental, longitudinal, prospective, and single blinded study. Subjects: Participants aged between 18 and 60 years, and with non specific neck pain of at least 3 months of evolution. Methods: Participants will be randomly allocated in four groups: a) isolated use of a home based therapeutic exercise (TE) program (TE Group); b) combination of the exercise program and the use of deep dry needling (DN) in neck shoulder muscles with active or latent myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) in order to elicit local twitch responses (LTR) (TE + local DN Group); c) therapeutic exercise combined with DN applied distally from the muscle areas with MTrPs and, therefore, without, eliciting LTRs (TE + distal DN Group); and d) therapeutic exercise program combined with placebo DN (TE + placebo DN Group).

NCT ID: NCT03843983 Completed - Clinical trials for Evaporative Dry Eye Disease

Effect of Thermal Pulsation System (Lipiflow) Treatment for Ocular Surface Disease Due to Meibomian Gland Dysfunction

Start date: March 25, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Meibomian glands are a kind of sebaceous gland located in the tarsus of lower and upper lids and their function is to express lipids to the tear film. The secretion of lipids, polar and no-polar, produced in the Meibomian glands is denominated as meibum and it forms the external layer of the tear film. Its thickness varies from 15 to 200 nm and it is related with the tear film stability and the evaporation of the tear film. The meibum composition is variable among participants, especially in those who suffer Meibomian gland dysfunction or dry eye disease. Meibomian gland dysfunction is the leading cause of ocular surface disease. Meibomian gland dysfunction management depends on its severity, but eyelid hygiene, including warming and expression of Meibomian gland, is recommended from clinical stage 1 and it has proven its efficacy. However, lack of participant compliance can be a problem when this therapy is prescribed. In the last few years, some devices have been developed to improve the efficacy of this therapy, as for example the application of Vectored Thermal Pulsation with the Lipiflow device. It has been reported that low relative humidity values increase evaporative rates in both dry eye participants and healthy participants. Also, our group has extensively proven the negative effect of adverse environments (in the Controlled Environment Laboratory (CELab)) in clinical variables such as tear stability, dry eye symptoms and corneal staining both in healthy and dry eye participants. Therefore, the hypothesis of this study is that improving the Meibomian gland secretion through the application of warm and pressure with Lipiflow device, meibum composition would change in participants with Meibomian gland dysfunction and they would be less affected by adverse environmental conditions simulated in a controlled environmental chamber. The study will try to assess the effect of Lipiflow on the meibum in patients exposed to controlled adverse environmental conditions.

NCT ID: NCT03842969 Completed - Huntington Disease Clinical Trials

An Open-Label Extension Study to Evaluate Long-Term Safety and Tolerability of RO7234292 (RG6042) in Huntington's Disease Participants Who Participated in Prior Roche and Genentech Sponsored Studies

Start date: April 23, 2019
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of RO7234292 (RG6042) in participants who have completed other F. Hoffmann-La Roche, Ltd.-sponsored and/or Genentech-sponsored studies in the Huntington's disease (HD) in the development program for RG6042.

NCT ID: NCT03842319 Completed - Clinical trials for Acute Coronary Syndrome

Impact of MEditerranean Diet, Inflammation and Microbiome After an Acute Coronary Syndrome

MEDIMACS
Start date: May 14, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In the MEDIMACS project, the investigators will use a randomized clinical-trial design to address the effects of mediterranean diet on atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability and coronary endothelial function in order to decipher complex interplays between diet, microbiome, immunological and metabolic responses and coronary atherosclerosis. The investigators will focus on patients after an episode of acute coronary syndrome and use state-of-the-art techniques to address atherosclerotic plaque composition and coronary endothelial function. A number of different -omic approaches will be used to address effector pathways. The insights provided by this study will allow identifying potential new dietary, microbiota and/or metabolic targets for the treatment of atherosclerosis

Phase:
Study type: Observational

The main purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of ATTR Cardiomyopathy among patients admitted due to Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH) >15mm of unknown etiology by using a 99mTc-tracer scintigraphy based protocol

Study type: Interventional

Primary objective: • To evaluate the potential efficacy of safinamide 100 mg once daily (OD), compared with placebo, as add-on therapy for PD-related chronic pain Secondary objectives: - Percentage of pain responders - Clinical Global Impression for pain - Patient Global Impression for pain - Reduction in use of pain drugs - Mood - Motor and non-motor symptoms Safety Objectives: • Safety and tolerability

NCT ID: NCT03840200 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

A Study Evaluating the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy of Ipatasertib Administered in Combination With Rucaparib in Participants With Advanced Breast, Ovarian Cancer, and Prostate Cancer.

Variation of Spatiotemporal Parameters in School Children Carrying Different Backpack Loads

SCBP
Start date: November 2, 2018
Phase: N/A

Backpacks (BP) represent the method most used by students to transport external cargo. Previous studies cite that between 4.7% and 38% of children carry daily BP loads greater than 20% of their body mass. The purpose of this study was to analyze spatiotemporal parameters of gait in children using varyingly loaded BPs.
