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.
The measurement of tcpCO2 has many disadvantages: the need for regular calibration (4 to 8 hours) of the sensor, the fact that the sensor heats the skin (risk of burns), the impossibility of measurement in ambulatory and the high cost of the monitor. In order to develop a new type of tcpCO2 sensor, it is necessary to acquire knowledge in fundamental physiology on the diffusion of CO2 through the skin.
Anifrolumab Study of Treatment Effectiveness in the Real World (ASTER) study will collect real world data to obtain a good understanding of the (sustained) clinical effect and patient quality of life outcomes among diagnosed SLE patients who initiate anifrolumab treatment. ASTER will generate critical real-world evidence on the benefits of adding anifrolumab to standard of care treatment for SLE in routine clinical practice, to inform physicians, payers and patients.
The research system is a Mobile Perinatal Psychiatry Team (EMPPer), for children aged 0 to 3 and their parents. it facilitates access to psychiatric care by going to families who need it and who are in difficulty to ensure this process. This device, already deployed in a dozen French cities for several years, convinced the teams of its interest, without demonstrating its effectiveness by evaluation conducted according to research standards. The deployment of a Mobile Perinatal Psychiatry Team in a region not yet equipped (Meurthe-et-Moselle Sud) would therefore offer the opportunity to assess its effectiveness, The main objective of the research is to evaluate the effect of the EMPPer on the prevalence of abnormalities in the psychomotor development of children at the age of 2 years, in comparison with similar territories that do not benefit from it, and in comparison with the period preceding the establishment of the EMPPer in the targeted territory.
Specific Written Language Disorders (SWLD) are severe and lasting impairments in the development of written language that affect approximately 10% of the school-age population.Concerned patients don't have any intellectual disability. Speech therapy help them to improve their language skills but also to compensate for their difficulties. School environment is one of the places where these disorders can constitute a real handicap. Given the prevalence of disorders, governments but also supra-governmental authorities have promoted educational integration of the concerned patients around the world. In France, different systems exist to help these patients with SWLD to follow an education that allows them to update their capacities as much as possible. School facilities are proposed such as attribution of Assistive Technology (AT). Nevertheless, these facilities have some limitations. Concerning AT, several studies have shown the benefits for patients with dyslexia such as a better use of them. However, there were some limitations in their use and their usefulness. The lack of use training is one of the barriers cited by patients and caregivers (parents and teachers). Assistive Technology training exists for patients with dyslexia but very few studies have measured their influence on their performance in written language. Moreover, these studies did not take into account the previous level of computer practice nor the natural appropriation of the AT (ie: anyone can appropriate themselves). It is therefore difficult to affirm the specificity of the training's influence. This study aims to assess the usefulness of AT training on the written language performance of adolescents with dyslexia. This work will study teenager's autonomy and how they use these tools.
Self-confidence is essential during the training of students but in professional practice. Therefore, the training of students must allow its acquisition. However, the university environment is particularly stressful for students. This stress can lead to depression. Perceived stress refers to the feeling of inability to pass an exam even if the person has the abilities to do so.
This study will be done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. Participants will either get ziltivekimab or placebo. Participants will get study medicine for once-monthly injections either in a pre-filled syringe to inject the study medicine into a skinfold or a pen-injector to inject the study medicine into flat skin. The study is expected to last for up to 4 years. Participants will have up to 20 clinic visits. Participants will have to use a study app on their phone to record and share information about all their injections of study medicine and to fill in questionnaires.
Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is a major public health problem, characterized by a high rate of relapse. Chronic and excessive alcohol consumption notably induces frontal brain alterations and cognitive impairments such as executive dysfunction and an attentional bias for alcohol, participating to the risk of relapse. In effect, AUD patients preferentially process alcohol-related cues, which could reflect a reorganization of the patients' semantic network. The investigators hypothesize that in AUD patients, semantic associations in memory are reorganized with a higher centrality of alcohol-related elements. To the investigators knowledge, no studies have explored semantic associations and/or semantic networks in AUD. A study, conducted in patients with neurological damage, showed that frontal lesions are associated with excessive strength in semantic associations, and difficulties to generate remote associations. This excessive strength in semantic associations could reduce the ability to inhibit automatisms and to adapt to new context. Objective: The objective of this study is to explore whether and how AUD patients have a different organization of semantic associations than healthy controls, and whether this reorganization influences the alcohol consumption over the months following the withdrawal. The investigators will also explore how it relates to neuropsychological assessment of flexibility, executive functions, and impulsivity. To these purposes, the investigators will use two original verbal tasks (Free Generation of Associates Task, FGAT and Associative Judgment Task, AJT) assessing word associations and allowing the estimation of semantic networks using graph theory, in combination with neuropsychological testing, in AUD patients and in healthy controls. Methods: This study will include a group of 30 AUD patients and a group of 30 healthy controls. Both groups will be assessed twice, at baseline (T1; early in abstinence for AUD patients) and after a three-month period (T3). For the two groups, T1 and T3 assessments will include the two semantic association tasks (FGAT and AJT). For AUD patients, assessments will also involve neuropsychological testing of impulsivity, flexibility, and attentional bias. Besides, in AUD patients, data about alcohol consumptions will be collected six weeks (T2) and three months (T3) following the baseline assessment to classify patients as relapsers or abstainers.
In everyday life, it is necessary to adjust one's behavior and reactions in order to interact and communicate with others in an appropriate manner. This adaptation is done by taking into account the emotions of the people with whom we interact. This reading of emotions is done by using visible clues on the face, in particular by observing the eye area of the interlocutor. The aim of the study is to investigate how processes such as attention or memory influence emotion recognition, as well as (i) their alteration in the disease, and (ii) their link with the emergence of autistic and/or psychotic symptoms. We also want to study the implementation of compensatory strategies (used to compensate for difficulties in recognizing or perceiving emotions) and the link between the correct use of these strategies and the emergence of autistic and/or psychotic symptoms. The present project plans to include a total of 120 participants: 30 participants with ASD, 30 patients with a particular genetic deletion 22q11.2 and 60 control participants. After the inclusion visit, participation in the study will be divided into two half-days in order to perform a neuropsychological assessment, an EEG study and an oculometry study.
The adaptability of the locomotor activity allows to face all the modifications of the immediate environment met in the daily activities. These situations become complex to apprehend for a person with a locomotor disability such as patients fitted with a lower limb amputation device. Thus, these adaptation capacities are essential to take into account in the rehabilitation process to maximize autonomy and reduce the risk of falls. For this purpose, the Quantitative Gait Analysis (QGA) allows to measure the impact of these constraining situations on the organization of gait patterns. However, this evaluation could be considerably optimized in current practice with the contribution of Virtual Reality (VR), by its immersive power which brings it closer to real life conditions (walking in a straight line, going up/down steps, taking into account visual and sound constraints, etc.). Eventually, this immersive approach by various VR environments could allow to improve the rehabilitation protocols in a personalized and secure way. In this context, this project proposes to measure the tolerance of volunteers in a specific virtual environment and to quantify the modifications induced by this immersive environment, during a simple locomotor act (walking on flat ground) and complex (walking on a slope) in healthy volunteers, in order to evaluate the impact of VR on locomotion in a healthy population, and then in a second time in lower limb amputee patients This monocentric study will take place on the Technological Investigation Platform of the Dijon Bourgogne University Hospital. 25 healthy volunteers and 25 lower limb amputees (transtibial or transfemoral) will be included in this study. The participants will make 3 visits: - Visit 1 (inclusion visit and analysis of walking on flat ground) - visit 2 (analysis of walking on slopes): between 15 days and 1 month after visit 1 - visit 3 (group interview with a sociologist): only for patients within 45 days after visit 2
The purpose of this monocentric retrospective study is to compare, in patients with acute distal vessel occlusion stroke, the early rates of successful recanalization in patients treated with Alteplase (ALT) versus Tenecteplase (TNK), based on a retrospective analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed early after IVT.
