NCT ID: NCT03178604 Completed - Clinical trials for Hamstring Contractures

Classic and Sham Massage on Psychological and Physical Functional Variables in Athletes

MHams
Start date: June 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this study we intend to apply a treatment protocol for hamstrings that can be beneficial for a good recovery. Initially, a sample of athletes with hamstring shortening was chosen. Once the sample is chosen, it will be divided into two groups: group 1 (G.1) who will receives a sham massage, group 2 (G.2) that receives the classic massage. To finalize the study comparing the results of the two groups to observe the experimental protocol obtains better results. Material and methods The sample of an athletic club. Recruiting subjects between 18 and 45 years old without other injuries of the lower limb. Subjects with shortening of the hamstring muscles are available through the specific shortening test. This is a randomized controlled trial. Subjects were randomly assigned to two intervention groups (1 treatment and 1 placebo control). The intervention consists of 4 sessions for 1 month. The sessions have a duration of 45 minutes. Evaluations are performed at the beginning of treatment, at the end of treatment. Participants also perform strengthening exercises three days a week, a total of 3 sets with 15 repetitions each. Group 1 receives a sham massage of the quadriceps and hamstrings. Group 2 receives a classic massage of the quadriceps and hamstrings. The assessments consist of knee and hip goniometry, lumbar and hamstring flexibility by finger-to-floor testing, and complete the questionnaire Mood Status Profile (POMS), Which evaluates the states of mind.

NCT ID: NCT03177603 Completed - Clinical trials for Hypertension, Pulmonary

A Dose-escalation Study in Subjects With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)

Start date: February 21, 2018
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

GSK2586881, a purified intravenous (IV) formulation of soluble recombinant human Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (rhACE2) is being investigated as a treatment for PAH. This GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of GSK2586881 in subjects with PAH. This open-label, dose-escalation study will comprise of 4 separate groups based on the planned dose range, and subjects in each group will be administered a single dose of GSK2586881 ranging between 0.1, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) via IV route. Dose escalation will occur after 4 subjects have been dosed per cohort and review of safety, tolerability, PK and hemodynamic data up to 24 hours post dose has taken place. A maximum of 27 subjects will be included in the study and the total duration of the study will be up to a maximum of 59 days.

NCT ID: NCT03175614 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

Effectiveness to Weight Loss in Sedentary and Overweight People Using a Smartphone Application.

EVIDENT3
Start date: June 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized clinical trial aimed at obese and sedentary subjects aged 20 to 65 years selected in urban primary care centers of 5 centers (Spain). Its objective is to evaluate the effects of the addition of an ICT tool developed for the Smartphone application and a Smartband in support of behavioral and educational recommendations to reduce weight.

NCT ID: NCT03175367 Completed - Clinical trials for Hypercholesterolemia

Study of Evinacumab (REGN1500) in Participants With Persistent Hypercholesterolemia

Start date: November 10, 2017
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the reduction of LDL-C by evinacumab in comparison to placebo after 16 weeks in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia (HeFH, or non-HeFH with a history of clinical ASCVD) with persistent hypercholesterolemia despite receiving maximally-tolerated LMT. Persistent hypercholesterolemia is defined as LDL-C ≥70 mg/dL (1.81 mmol/L) for those patients with clinical ASCVD and LDL-C ≥100 mg/dL (2.59 mmol/L) for those patients without clinical ASCVD.

NCT ID: NCT03173846 Completed - Alzheimer Disease Clinical Trials

Multiregional rtfMRI Neurofeedback for the Prevention of Alzheimer's Disease (NPAD)

NPAD
Start date: May 5, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study aims to predict cognitive decline using a performance endophenotype of neuro-feedback based on functional magnetic resonance imaging in real time in a population at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD).

NCT ID: NCT03173404 Completed - Sterility Clinical Trials

Benefits of Hysteroscopy Prior to Performing a Cycle of in Vitro Fertilization/Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection

Start date: July 1, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a prospective randomized open-label trial. Women scheduled for their first or second in-vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmatic Sperm Injection (IVF/ICSI) cycle and with no abnormality detected in transvaginal ultrasound examination, were randomized to two groups. In the first group (group I) 31 patients underwent hysteroscopy examination before IVF cycle while in the second group (group II) 37 patients underwent direct cycle without previous hysteroscopy

NCT ID: NCT03172962 Completed - Low Back Pain Clinical Trials

Effect of Strength Training for Chronic Low Back Pain Patients (IRMA20)

IRMA20
Start date: July 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Low back pain (LBP) is common in the population and has great socioeconomic consequences for societies across Europe and the United States. About a third of working-age adults have frequent LBP, and for about 10% the pain becomes chronic with consequences for work and leisure activities. A Cochrane review from April 2017 concluded that physical exercise is an intervention with few adverse events and positive outcomes on pain and function in adults with chronic pain. However, when scrutinizing the specific studies of the review there are large differences in adherence to the exercise interventions and consequently in the results obtained. Thus, there is a need for simple exercises that the patients can easily adhere to.

NCT ID: NCT03171181 Completed - Inner Ear Disease Clinical Trials

Unilateral Peripheral Vestibular Dysfunction: Reeducation and Spatial Orientation.

Start date: November 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Motor control includes postural control and voluntary movement. For an optimal motor control it is necessary that brain integrates vestibular, visual and somatosensorial inputs properly, in a nonlinear way. Vestibular system, as an afferent organ, encodes head position in relation to gravity and changes in its linear and angular acceleration. As vestibular central system, it plays an essential role in motor control and in orientation and spatial memory as well. When a peripheral vestibular lesion occurs, elaboration, interpretation and processing of inputs are deficient and therefore motor control is altered to a greater or lesser degree. As process progress in time, there is a natural neuroplasticity that facilitates recovery or compensate vestibular function, although sometimes this process is incomplete and requires vestibular reeducation This study aims to assess changes in balance control, orientation and handicap perception in one case group with symptomatic unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction, before and after a rehabilitation programme (RV). To compare values obtained at the beginning and at the end of RV to those achieved by control group. Finally, this research aims to analyse evolution of spatial orientation quality in symptomatic and non symptomatic participants.
