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.
Over the past few years, various systems have been developed to record ECG traces on an ambulatory basis. The latest connected watch models feature 2-electrode ECG recording. This single (1D) or six derivations (6D) can be used to derive a wealth of information about the heart's rhythm. The information that can be derived from an ECG recording with a derivation goes far beyond̀ simple differentiation between atrial fibrillation and sinus rhythm. In contrast, in various clinical situations, a tracing restricted to an intracardiac defibrillator (ICD) may prove falsely normal, wrongly reassuring a patient and delaying management. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the sensitivity of ECG-1D or 6D recordings from a connected watch in measuring electrical parameters, compared with a standard ECG-12D, also to obtain a bank of tracings, to create and validate an artificial intelligence algorithm for the automatic analysis of ECG tracings recorded with a connected watch and also to validate the feasibility and sensitivity of recording an ECG tracing with a connected watch in children.
Prospective experimental study using PBMC from a limited number of adult patients (15) treated at Nantes University Hospital for a kidney transplant from a related living donor. The study will be carried out on PBMC from both donors and recipients, collected during visits scheduled as part of the clinical management of the donor/recipient pair. The study will test the hypothesis that DP8α Tregs expressing CD73, whose frequency in blood increases stably after non-rejected kidney transplants, but not when patients have undergone or will subsequently undergo rejection, are enriched in donor-specific cells, which would be a strong argument in favor of a direct role for these Tregs in preventing transplant rejection, through their ability to inhibit immune responses directed against donor alloantigens.
Persistent postoperative pain is a substantial pain (scores 4-10 using a 0-10 numeric scale) that develops 3 months after surgery. Persistent postoperative pain can be a problem even in ambulatory surgery. Loco-regional analgesia could prevent the occurrence of this pathology but contradictory results are found in ancient studies. This study is the first randomized controlled study in children about loco-regional analgesia and persistent postoperative pain in traumatologic orthopedic surgery. One interventional arm will receive a locoregional analgesia after general anesthesia and before incision. The other arm will only receive systemic analgesia during general anesthesia. The incidence of persistent postoperative pain at 3, 6 and 12 months will be compared in these two groups. The goal is to show the decrease of the incidence of the persistent postoperative pain in the group "locoregional analgesia".
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic respiratory disease associated with various comorbidities, including muscle weakness (MW), which is very worrying due to its negative impact on patients' quality of life and survival. To address this issue, muscle strengthening is incorporated into pulmonary rehabilitation programs. However, its effectiveness is unclear, as although there is an average improvement in muscle strength, one in two patients does not show a clinically relevant improvement. To understand this non-response, it is crucial to examine the effect of muscle strengthening programs on the two main determinants of force production: the muscle and the central command. Muscle adaptations following a muscle strengthening program are well-documented, showing improvements in muscle function (cross-sectional area, lean mass, etc.). Conversely, only one study has investigated central adaptations after a muscle strengthening program, clearly demonstrating a lack of effect. The investigators hypothesize that patients showing no improvement in muscle strength after pulmonary rehabilitation (non-responders) have a significantly lower level of voluntary activation before starting the program compared to responding patients (responders).
Management of post-traumatic severe hemorrhage remains a challenge to any trauma care system. Studying integrated and innovative tools designed to predict the risk of early severe hemorrhage (ESH) and resource needs could offer a promising option to improve clinical decisions and then shorten the time of intervention in the context of pre-hospital severe trauma. As evidence seems to be lacking to address this issue, this ambispective validation study proposes to assess on an independent cohort the predictive performance of a newly developed machine learning-based model, as well as the feasibility of its clinical deployment under real-time healthcare conditions.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy of temporary clipping of the uterine artery and utero-ovarian ligament during robotically assisted myomectomy (RAM) for uterine fibroids. While RAM is increasingly used for myomectomy, bleeding control remains challenging. Temporary clipping of arteries has shown promise in conventional laparoscopy but has not been studied in RAM. This randomized controlled trial will assess primary endpoints such as estimated blood loss, need for transfusion, and hemoglobin drop, alongside secondary outcomes like complication rates and operation time.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of BMS-986446 an Anti-MTBR Tau Monoclonal Antibody in participants with Early Alzheimer's Disease.
The purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy and safety of baxdrostat/dapagliflozin in participants ≥ 18 years of age with CKD and HTN. This study consists of a screening, a 4-week dapagliflozin run-in period for participants naïve to SGLT2i at baseline; a 24-month double-blind period in which participants will receive either baxdrostat/dapagliflozin or dapagliflozin; and a 6-week open-label period in which all participants will discontinue baxdrostat/placebo and receive dapagliflozin alone. Site visits will take place at 2-, 4-, 8-, and 16- weeks following randomisation. Thereafter visits will occur approximately every 4 months, until the 24-month visit at which time baxdrostat/placebo will be discontinued. Participants will continue open-label dapagliflozin for another 6-weeks (approximately), where reassessment of GFR will occur for the primary efficacy endpoint. In the event of premature discontinuation of blinded study intervention, participants will continue in the study and receive open-label dapagliflozin monotherapy, unless the participant meets dapagliflozin specific discontinuation criteria, in which case all study interventions will be discontinued.
Fear of being judged negatively by others can lead to avoidance of social situations or even social isolation. If the intensity of this fear is excessive and results in significant impairment of functioning or significant suffering, the subject may suffer from social anxiety. The considerable growth of social networks in a decade has led to the emergence of new behaviors among young people. Individuals spend on average 2 hours and 27 minutes per day with differences in usage: time spent, social network used, function sought. The use of these networks may be reasonable and moderate but may also be excessive and abusive (Amnon, 2014). Some authors even talk about addiction or dependence on social networks (Perales and Billieux, 2020) even if the existence of this disorder is not consensus. People who fear being judged negatively by others may be more at risk of misuse of social networks. Indeed, the use of social networks would compensate for their existing problems (Kardefelt-Winther, 2014) and would thus be a new emotional management strategy. It would also reduce dreaded social situations such as face-to-face exchanges (Weidman and Rodebaugh, 2012; Yen and Ko, 2012). Self-esteem is defined as a subjective judgment of oneself in relation to one's values and vision of the real and ideal self (Rosenberg. 1979). The greater the gap between the vision of the real self and the ideal self, the lower the self-esteem.
OZURDEX endophthalmitis is a rare and potentially very serious pathology. Different treatments can be carried out early and change the functional prognosis of the patient.
