There are about 36633 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in France. 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.
This is the first study of branaplam in adults with Huntington's Disease (HD) to determine the correct dose required to lower mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT) levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to a degree expected to be efficacious over longer periods of time.
The aim of the study is to find, using validated and efficient tools, a laryngopharyngeal reflux in patients receiving polysomnography for suspected obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. It is proposed to carry out simultaneously, at the Sleep Center of the Polyclinique of Poitiers (CSPP), a polysomnography, a 24-hour Restech pharyngeal pH-metry (day and night), a Peptest (in the evening and in the morning of the polysomnography), with the RSS-12 questionnaire and the RSA score.
to analyze if a probe strategy choice for PGT-SR studies of Robertsonian translocations (RT) influences the fate of embryos? Few studies discussed the importance of probe choices. However, those who did, demonstrated that analysis with locus specific probes improve a diagnosis of dubious results, and addition of a centromeric probe could affect the accuracy of diagnosis
To be able to have data on brain activity during an acupuncture session, this pilot study is necessary to evaluate the kinetics of the bispectral index. This research aims to evaluate the kinetics of the bispectral index in healthy volunteers during an acupuncture session, Sham acupuncture or resting in a lying position.
This research is a descriptive observational study conducted in multicenter (intensive care and continuing care units) in France. All data collected is part of the patient record. The main objective is to describe the end-of-life sedative practices following a decision to limit or stop therapy in intensive care unit and continuing care unit.
In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of the gut microbiome is yet unknown. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the clinical contribution of the gut microbiome composition and diversity on the disease severity and to estimate the viral load in stool samples.
The effects of daily supplementation of the NUTRIOSE® on the fecal microbiota. The hypothesis of the study is that the NUTRIOSE® is able to modulate the intestinal microbiota in a positive way, compare to a placebo, in healthy volunteers.
Children with disabilities experience activities limitations and participation restrictions. Facilitating the children with disabilities' independence while performing tasks is a key stake to improve their successful participation and their development. Products and technology can prevent, compensate, relieve or neutralize disability or handicap and help children and youth with disabilities to perform tasks that might otherwise be difficult or impossible. The aim of this study was i) to identify the most frequent activity limitations and participation restrictions for which assistive products and technology may be useful for children and youth with disabilities, and ii) to highlight macroscopic trends related to encountered difficulties and wished products and technology. The hypotheses were i/ that difficulties would be particularly expected for certain life situations, especially outside the home in an unfamiliar environment ii/ that products and technology would be wished for those situations which should be defined as priority subjects and iii/ that thanks to those results it could be possible to highlight new processes to develop innovative solutions.
Due to radiation exposure and low but real risk of morbidity and mortality associated with right heart catheterization, non-invasive procedures to estimate mPAP are desired for the diagnosis of PH or to monitor treatment effectiveness. Echocardiography is used as a screening tool to estimate systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (sPAP), but due various limitations, this technique is not considered to be sufficiently accurate for the diagnosis of PH. The aim of 4D flow MRI is to evaluate the complete time-varying tridirectional velocity field in a volume of interest. It enables flow and velocity measurements in a vascular region of interest and visualization of vector plots of blood flow velocity fields. Previous studies have shown on the one hand, correlations between mPAP and hemodynamic parameters obtained by phase contrast MRI and, on the other hand, appearance of a vortical blood flow in the pulmonary artery in PH. More studies are required to confirm 4D MRI as a valuable tool for mPAP estimation in PH. Following screening echocardiography, all patients will undergo right heart catheterization for PH assessment. Then, all patients will be referred for a complete cardiac MRI exam with the addition of a 4D Flow sequence (does not require supplementary injection of a contrast agent and does not extend the duration of the examination) followed promptly (within the same hour) by a Doppler-echocardiography. The data from each examination will be blindly interpreted from the results of the other one. No follow-up will be required for the study.
Chronic Recurrent Multifocal Osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a rare autoinflammatory bone disease in children. Studies evaluating the quality of life of patients with CRMO are small and heterogeneous. A better understanding of the impact of the disease on the quality of life of adult patients with CRMO beginning in childhood would allow better long-term management of these patients. Our study aims are to assess the clinical and socio-professional outcomes of adult patients who started CRMO at pediatric age.
