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.
Suspected preterm labour (SPL), define as the presence of regular and painful uterine contractions and cervical shortening, constitute a prenatal insult with potential long-term consequences. However, despite recent evidence demonstrating a suboptimal neurodevelopment at 2 years in this population, it remains under-recognized as a significant risk factor for neurodevelopmental disorders or other chronic diseases. The objective of this study is to assess the impact of suspected preterm labour during pregnancy on cardiometabolic profile and neurodevelopment during childhood (6-8 years). Prospective cohort study including children whose mothers suffered a suspected preterm labor during pregnancy and paired controls. A neurodevelopment, cardiovascular and metabolic assessment at 6-8 years of age will be performed. A trained psychologist will carry out the neurodevelopment assessment. Body composition and physical fitness assessment will be performed by one trained pediatrician and nurse. Finally, cardiovascular assessment, including echocardiography and blood pressure, will be performed by two pediatric cardiologists. Data regarding perinatal and postnatal characteristics, diet, lifestyle and weekly screen time of the child will be obtained from clinical histories and direct interviews with the families. Primary outcome measures will include body mass index and adiposity, percentage of fat mass and total and regional lean mass, bone mineral content and density, cardio-respiratory resistance, isometric muscle strength, dynamic lower body strength, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, left ventricle (LV) systolic and diastolic function, general intelligence index, visuospatial working memory span, visual development test, visual acuity, index of emotional and behavioral problems.
Previous research has shown the efficacy of CROCUVIS+® dietary supplement, based on saffron extract, in the proper functioning of visual health, for example, against the development of glaucoma. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of CROCUVIS® in computer vision syndrome, sleep and mood disorders in a sample of university students who use digital devices.
Darvadstrocel is an expanded allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell therapy for the treatment of complex perianal fistulas in patients with Crohn's disease. Safety and efficacy of the procedure has been sufficiently demonstrated and the Spanish Agency of Medication approved its application a few months ago. Being aware about the difficulties to a proper application and management of the stem cells the Spanish Stem Cell therapy group devised, in a joint activity with the Spanish Group GERM (Grupo Español de Rehabilitacion Multimodal) dedicated to expand the best surgical clinical practices, a national project for the application of the therapy. The objective is to get a homogeneous implementation in all hospitals in Spain that have being baked to use this biological therapy.
Whereas beetroot juice (BJ) supplementation is shown to increase physical performance in endurance activities, its benefits in neuromuscular function and strength performance has been barely studied. In this cross-over randomized placebo-controlled study, we investigated the effects of BJ acute supplementation in improving neuromuscular performance in amateur climbers
Lumbosacral spinal stimulation activates the neural network involved in the control of locomotion at the spinal level. However, its effects are limited to the production of robust rhythmic patterns of alternating movement, being currently in the absence of therapeutic value. On the other hand, the use of robotic technology for gait rehabilitation has experienced significant growth during the last years and its clinical efficacy is similar to others traditional interventions.
Scientific evidence supports that only a few dietary supplements have reported good evidence for improving sports performance, between we can mention beetroot juice supplementation with doses > 5 mmol of NO3-. In this randomized placebo-controlled study, we investigated the effects of BJ acute supplementation in improving neuromuscular performance and match-play demands in female field hockey players.
Rugby is a team sport characterized by high-intermittent efforts, due to the importance of realizing intermittent and explosive efforts in rugby the use of nutritional strategies such as beetroot ingestion should be explored with the aim to enhance the capacity for repeating high-intensity actions in female players.
Beetroot juice is a dietary supplement with good evidence for improving sports performance in different sport contexts, however, the evidence about the effects of beetroot juice in jump capacity is unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive examination of beetroot juice effects on vertical jump performance
BCN03 is a Single-site, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase I study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and efficacy of a vaccine regimen that includes a sequence of the T- and B-cell immunogens ChAdOx1.HTI and MVA.HTI and ConM SOSIP.v7 gp140 adjuvanted with MPLA liposomes in 30 virologically-suppressed ART-treated HIV-1 positive individuals.
The study will be carried out at the Faculty of Nursing and Physiotherapy of the University of Alcalá. The study has been approved by the Animal Research and Experimentation Ethics Committee of the University of Alcalá. A total of 92 female basketball players aged between 12 and 25 will be selected and randomized in two different groups. The control group will carry out a conventional preventive work out and the experimental group will carry out a specific strengthening program for the gluteus maximus in addition to the conventional preventive exercises. The treatment will take place during the basketball club season and will last 4 months, from January to April 2022. The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of the inclusion of a specific gluteus maximus strength program in the conventional preventive work to improve the dynamic stability and to reduce the injury rate and pain in female basketball players.
