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.
Populations in precarious situations or with low socio-economic status have an increased risk of diabetes and accelerated aging. According to the population studied, the elements that can explain these health inequalities are not unequivocal and remain poorly known. The north of France, particularly affected by socio-economic disparities, has a prevalence of diabetes among the highest in metropolitan France. This is why investigators want to study the clinical, biological, social and behavioural risk factors of the entry into diabetes and accelerated aging among a large population in the North of France. This study aims to characterize the population (among which a majority (55%) suffers from precarious conditions) who come to carry out their health examination at the Pasteur Institute in Lille in order to study the risk factors to better explain these health inequalities. This research consists of a main descriptive observational, cross-sectional study carried out on 2233 volunteers (main group) over 18 months, and a complementary analytical case-control study that will be offered to 216 participants (sub-group).
The goal of this interventional study is to learn about nasal microbiome and viral infections in newborns hospitalised in neonatology. The main questions it aims to answer are : - how often are newborns infected by viruses in neonatology ? - how does the microbiome develop during first weeks of life ? - how does microbiome and viruses interacts together ? - is there a link between viral infection, microbiome, and medical complications during hospitalisation in neonatology ? Participants will have a nasal swab taken each week during their hospitalisation in neonatology, and researchers will take medical data from the medical chart.
The present study compare personality of Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients with chronic, PD patients without pain and non-parkinsonian patients with other chronic pain condition.
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear is a frequent and devastating injury in sport, especially in pivoting-contact disciplines. In many cases, athletes will undergo an ACL reconstruction (ACL-R) for recovering knee stability, preventing further injuries and returning to sport (RTS). Among the criteria for RTS, knee muscle strength is the most used objective criteria and especially the symmetry of knee flexors and/or extensors between the operated and uninjured knee. Isokinetic testing of knee muscle strength is considered as a reference for knee muscle testing during the follow up stages after ACL-R. This evaluation allows to measure the strength (torque) of knee flexors and extensors at several angular velocities. However, there is no relevant litterature about the force-velocity (Fo-v) relationship of knee flexors and extensors after ACL-R. The present study aimed to evaluate and test the differences between the Fo-v relationship parameters between the operated and uninjured knees at 4 months and 8 months after ACL-R, using the 2-points method with isokinetic testing. Also, the investigators aimed to test the impact of the type of surgery (patellar tendon autograft vs. hamstring tendon autograft) on the Fo-v relationship after ACL-R
Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment with the PD-1 class of checkpoint inhibitors - pembrolizumab and nivolumab -- demonstrating durable responses in Stage IV metastatic tumors such as non-small cell lung cancer and melanoma. Despite these numerous successes, PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade therapies do have a number of shortcomings. Many approaches to predict response to PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint therapy have been investigated with limited success. Recent efforts exploring the utility of quantitative imaging biomarkers to predict response to PD-[L]1 immunotherapy have shown promise. The purpose of this retrospective multicenter study is to develop a multi-omic classifier to predict response to PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade for mutation negative (EGFR, ALK and ROS1) NSCLC
The experimental medical device is a prototype software. The device comes in the form of a smartphone with a touch interface. The smartphone used to support the software is a commercial smartphone marked CE. The study aims at assessing the feasibility of the use of this expert, patient- decision support systems. The study hypothesis is that the clinical use of the experimental device is feasible.
"Low central venous pressure (low-CVP) or a restrictive fluid administration strategy is usually used worldwide during major liver resection surgery. Although individualized goal directed fluid therapy (GDFT) has been associated with reduced morbidity and mortality in major abdominal surgery, concerns remain on blood loss when applying GDFT in liver surgery. Indeed, GDFT could lead to a higher CVP with the risk of increased blood loss and reduced quality of the surgical field especially during liver dissection. Since evidence is scarce, this randomized controlled trial investigates the impact of a restrictive vs an individualized GDFT strategy assisted by an assisted fluid management (AFM) system on lactate level, blood loss, and postoperative morbidity including acute kidney injury (AKI) in major liver resections."
This study is a comparative trial comparing the time course of depressive symptoms between moderately and severely depressed participants over a 10-week long exercise program
Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is characterized by nervous, venous or arterial symptoms resulting from a compression of the thoracic bundle in the thoracic outlet. The diagnostic approach of TOS is still controversial. The investigating team is interested in arterial TOS and have already been able to demonstrate the presence of arm ischemia during dynamic maneuvers using transcutaneous oximetry (TcpO2). The correlation between the measurement of TcpO2 during dynamic maneuvers and the vascular compression type (arterial, venous or both) will be evaluated. The evaluation the correlation between TcpO2 and degree of arterial compression observed in dynamic arteriography (considered as a gold standard examination) will be calculated too. The use of TcpO2 could be developed in the diagnosis assessment of TOS.
Cardiac tele-rehabilitation in a hybrid form can be a choise for the management of cardiovascular diseases. The aim is to increase the participation rate of patients in cardiac rehabilitation. This new form of care can be as effective as traditional care.
