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.
Poor oral hygiene is associated with respiratory pathogen colonization and secondary lung infection.The possible association between oral care and incidence of VAP, and the role of dental plaque, mouth and tracheal colonization have not been firmly established. The investigators' hypothesis was that improving oral care with electrical toothbrushing might be effective in reducing the incidence of VAP.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and efficiency of doing a psychoeducational group program and the conventional treatment versus individual conventional care in patients with a mild/moderate depression disorder,in urban primary healthcare centers in Barcelona city.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the viability of intrabone administration of umbilical cord blood as allogenic transplantation for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.
Due to the potential for pregnancy-induced changes in the pharmacokinetics of medication, one cannot assume that the currently licensed doses of the medication to be tested under this protocol lead to adequate exposure in an HIV-infected pregnant woman. For the agents under study no or limited pharmacokinetic data during pregnancy are available. As the changes in pharmacokinetics during pregnancy are most prominent in the third trimester a pharmacokinetic curve will be recorded in the third trimester after attaining steady state.
Analyze the results of ASCT using intravenous Busulfan and Melphalan as conditioning regimen for patients with Multiple Myeloma.
Prospective study to evaluate the potential persistent viral effect of raltegravir in 20 treatment experienced HIV patients with incomplete viral suppression
This is a global, multicenter, open-label safety extension study. Participants receiving single-agent trastuzumab emtansine or trastuzumab emtansine administered in combination with other anti-cancer therapies in a Genentech / Roche-sponsored parent study who are active and receiving benefit at the closure of parent study are eligible for continued treatment in this study.
Raltegravir is the first of a new antiretroviral class. A better profile of metabolic toxicity is expected. In order to better define its effects, without interference with other drugs, a study on healthy volunteers is warranted.
The incidence of cardiovascular diseases is still high and further efforts should be done in primary prevention. The main objective is to quantify the burden of subclinical atherosclerosis using non-invasive techniques,and to study the impact of this assessment and consequent treatment in the progression of atherosclerosis and in the incidence of cardiovascular diseases.
Brief summary: Aspirin (ASA) has been shown to provide marked benefits in primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular events. Substantial evidence suggests that low-dose ASA therapy should also be used as a primary prevention strategy in men and women with diabetes who are at high cardiovascular risk. On the other hand, there is current evidence on the potential benefits of low-dose ASA therapy in subjects with impaired fasting glucose, including those with metabolic syndrome. Most important, previous laboratory animal and clinical trial research convincingly demonstrates administration time-dependent (with reference to circadian rhythms) effects of ASA. Thus, the effects of ASA upon lipoperoxides, b-adrenergic receptors, and blood pressure (BP) in clinically healthy subjects depend on the circadian timing of ASA administration. The administration-time-dependent influence of ASA on BP was previously demonstrated in a randomized trial on healthy women and other independent double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials conducted, first, on clinically healthy subjects, a second one on normotensive and hypertensive subjects, a third one on pregnant women at high risk for preeclampsia and a fourth one in previously untreated patients with mild hypertension. The findings of these BP studies are consistent; BP-lowering effect of low-dose ASA is achieved when administered at bedtime but not upon awakening. In keeping with the chronopharmacological effects of ASA and the previous findings suggesting that ASA at low dose may exert a potential beneficial effect on BP, endothelium function and cardiovascular function, this prospective, randomized, parallel-arm study will investigate the potential influence of ASA on the primary prevention of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and renal events in subjects with either impaired fasting glucose (≥ 100 mg/dl) or previous diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus, who will receive low-dose ASA (100 mg/day) at different circadian times (upon awakening or at bedtime) in relation to their rest-activity cycle.
