There are about 1183 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Indonesia. 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.
Adipose tissue secreting a number of adipokines which regulate insulin sensitivity, energy metabolism and vascular homeostasis, so the dysfunction of adipose tissue is linked with the incidence of obesity accompanied with insulin resistance, hypertension and cardiovascular disease (1). Obesity is known to alters the expression of adipokines due to the adipose tissue hypertrophy (2), including adiponectin, in which able to exert a potent anti-inflammatory and vascular protective effect (2). It has been proposed that adiponectin acts to prevent the vascular dysfunction due to obesity and diabetes by improves insulin sensitivity and metabolic profiles to reduce the risk factors for cardiovascular disease and protects the vasculature through its pleiotropic actions on endothelial cells, endothelial progenitor cells, smooth muscle cells and macrophages (1). The concentrations of adiponectin of 5 to 25 mg/mL had a significant inhibitory effect on the expression of monocyte adhesion and adhesion molecule induced by TNF-α in vitro. Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease in which adhesion molecules on arterial endothelial cells are responsible for the accumulation of monocytes/macrophages and T lymphocytes. While obesity is low-grade inflammation in which make a contribution on endothelial dysfunction by increasing the oxygen-derived free radicals (ROS) due to adipocyte hypertrophy, leads to an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and mitochondrial dysfunction (3). Adiponectin is accumulated in the vasculature, and it reduced on obesity due to suppression by TNF-α and lead to adiponectin-deficiency which stimulate the significant increases of Vascular cell adhesion protein 1 (VCAM-1) and Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM-1) or known as CD54 in aortic intima (4). Here we investigate the level of adiponectin, ICAM-1, VCAM-1 with the incidence of MetS in obese adolescents.
This study evaluate the effectiveness of lymphatic bypass supermicrosurgery (LBS) and axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) compare to ALND alone to prevent breast cancer treatment-related lymphedema (BCRL).
This research is a preliminary, randomized, double blind clinical trial, which will examine the differences in PRP preparation methods, a single-spin centrifugation of 3000 rpm in 15 minutes compared to a double-spin centrifugation of 1500 rpm in 6 minutes followed by 2500 rpm in 15 minutes, on the results of Thrombocyte Concentration and Clinical Improvement of Androgenetic Alopecia.
Over than 30% individuals with COVID-19, including the asymptomatic ones, and around 80% of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 may experience post-COVID sequelae, which is commonly referred to as Long COVID Syndrome. This condition has ties to decreased cognitive function and may lead to neuropsychiatric disorders but still need to be studied further. Using a cross-sectional design, this study will analyze the relationship between cognitive function and neuropsychiatric disorders with brain wave activity in Long COVID patients. The investigators conducted assessments utilizing the quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG) measurement method and interviews using instruments such as the MOCA questionnaire and Self Rating Questionnaire (SRQ). With this qEEG examination, the investigators hoped that there will be an imbalance/abnormality of brain wave activity that arises related to impaired cognitive function.
Intervention therapy study of moringa oliefera extract on the degree of activity of rheumatoid arthritis patients. The research subjects were patients with rheumatoid arthritis-intervention with moringa oliefera for 30 days.
This research is a clinical trial with a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) design. The purpose is to identify the effect of intravenous thiamine administration compared to normal saline placebo on glucagon levels and ROS levels in patients undergoing general anesthesia surgery
HIV/AIDS patients are at risk for depression, a multifactorial disorder with signs and symptoms that affect the cognitive, affective, behavioral, and somatic areas. This study used Randomized Controlled Clinical Trials (RCT). Main hypothesis: A combination of spiritual awareness-based cognitive therapy (MSBCT) plus hypnotic interventions can reduce depression degree scores by reducing cortisol levels and increasing serotonin levels in HIV patients with depression. Small hypothesis 1. There was a decrease in cortisol levels after being given the MSBCT plus hypnosis combination intervention in HIV patients with depression; 2. There was an increase in serotonin levels after being given the MSBCT plus hypnosis combination intervention in HIV patients with depression; 3. There was a decrease in depression degree scores after being given the MSBCT plus hypnosis combination intervention in HIV patients with depression; 4. There was a higher reduction in cortisol levels in the intervention group compared to the control group in HIV patients with depression; 5. There was a higher increase in serotonin levels in the intervention group compared to the control group in HIV patients with depression; 6. There was a higher reduction in scores degree of depression in the intervention group compared to the control group in HIV patients with depression; 7. Decreased cortisol levels and increased serotonin levels affect depression degree scores in HIV patients with depression; 8. MSBCT plus hypnosis combination intervention is a factor that can affect depression degree scores reduction in HIV patients with depression;
This research is a study that compares the administration of N-acetylcysteine at various doses with the outcomes of COVID-19 patients, namely the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and length of stay.
The goal of this to measure the effect of supplementation of Yellow Pumpkin Seed Extract Capsules in pregnant women on hemoglobin levels and nutritional status of pregnant women. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - is there a difference in changes in nutritional status (increase in body weight and MUAC) in pregnant women who receive supplementation of Pumpkin Seed Extract Capsules and iron tablets - is there a difference in changes in hemoglobin levels in pregnant women who receive supplementation of Pumpkin Seed Extract Capsules and iron tablets. The research sample was divided into two groups, namely the intervention group and the control group. In the intervention group, pregnant women received pumpkin seed extract capsules for 12 weeks, while the control group received iron tablets for 12 weeks as well. Measurements of nutritional status (including measurements of body weight and Mid Upper Arm Circumference/MUAC) were carried out before and after the intervention and were monitored every month until 12 weeks when the intervention was carried out. As for measuring blood hemoglobin levels, it was taken before the intervention and after the intervention for 12 weeks
