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.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a combination of intranasal conditioned medium (CM) with intraparenchymal umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) transplantation in acute stroke patients to induce neurogenesis.
This is a phase 2 randomized, double-blind clinical trial testing an anti-SARS-CoV-2 COVID-19 vaccine (AV-COVID-19) made on site using PT AIVITA Biomedika Indonesia's vaccine-enabling kit for the prevention of COVID-19 infection. The product is a subject-specific personal vaccine that consists of autologous dendritic cells and lymphocytes (DCL) previously incubated with a quantity of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (S-protein) which was shown to be safe in a phase 1 study also conducted in Indonesia. In this phase 2 study, efficacy is assessed via enhanced S-protein-specific T-cell response by comparing results before and after vaccination. Safety is confirmed via laboratory values, observation and regular patient reporting.
Acute pain is reported in approximately 80% of patients undergoing postoperative care for various types of surgical procedures in the United States. Another study reported patient postoperative pain intensity with 75% with severe pain in the first 1 to 2 postoperative days and 38% reporting moderate to severe pain at 14 postoperative days. Several modalities have been used as the standard for the management of pain postoperative C-sections. One of the postoperative analgesic modalities for SC is quadratus lumborum block (QLB). This technique has advantages in relieving postoperative pain after C-section because it is considered to be able to relieve visceral pain as well as somatic pain. The transmuscular QLB (QLBT) approach is one of the most frequently used. This technique was found to be effective with regard to the distribution of analgesics to the paravertebral spaces which is the hallmark of QLB. However, this technique was found to be difficult to perform. Difficulties were reported related to the position of the procedure i.e. lateral or sitting position.
The reported incidence of uveitis is 52 persons per year per 100,000 population, with a greater incidence estimated in developing countries, including Indonesia. Uveitis has challenges in diagnosis and therapy, due to the existence of an immunological privilege mechanism, so it is not easy to obtain diagnostic markers or provide appropriate therapy. In uveitis, a work-up examination looking for signs in the entire body or systemic disease is often conducted. Up until today, establishing the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB)-associated uveitis is still a challenge. From histopathological studies, TB germs are difficult to find. Wreblowski et al. found that paucibacillary conditions also made TB bacteria difficult to find by PCR and tuberculin test results were also not completely reliable. The development of IGRA (Interferon-Gamma Release Assay) assays, such as QuantiFERON-Gold TB (QFT) has been investigated. Our previous study found that IGRA-positive uveitis patients with type 1 IFN gene expression score >5.61 were more likely to have active TB uveitis. In addition, serum C1q examination also showed an inverse correlation with this score. Regarding therapy, until now corticosteroids and cycloplegics are the mainstay treatment for uveitis. However, appropriate administration of anti-infective drugs is necessary in cases of infection. Inflammation in TB-associated uveitis is thought to be the result of the immune response that occurs as a result of paucibacillary TB infection. Examinations can be redundant and problematic. Determination of therapy is also a dilemma because it is difficult to determine the right patient candidate for administration of anti-tuberculosis therapy (ATT). The protocol of ATT administration itself has not been standardized so it often follows the extra pulmonary TB protocol and there has been no reliable clinical trial research on ATT administration in patients with suspected TB uveitis yet no TB microorganisms are found directly in the eyes or other organs. On this basis, the investigators planned a prospective randomized clinical trial study that involve idiopathic uveitis patients with positive IGRA test, to assess the effectivity of ATT compared to oral steroids. In addition, this study can also be used as a basis for validation of type 1 IFN scores and serum C1q as diagnostic/prognostic biomarkers in cases of TB-associated uveitis.
This clinical study will compare the efficacy of using one fingertip unit and two fingertip units of 0.05% before and after 30% trichloroacetic acid chemical peel procedure for facial skin rejuvenation in 35-60 years old female patients with Glogau II-III skin classification.
Evaluation of the effectiveness of sunscreen products by determining its Sun Protection Factor (SPF) against UV-B and UV-A
The skin microbiome diversity in female healthy volunteers will be studied along with cosmetic products application in 1 month period. This study is also aimed to investigate the efficacy of cosmetic products on skin rejuvenation. .
Increased prevalence of overweight and obesity is one of the main health problems recently. Energy balance from nutrition intake and energy expenditure through physical activity, especially structured physical activity, is needed to prevent overweight individuals become obese individuals. This research objective is to explore the effectiveness and safety of structured high intensity interval training in male young adults subjects with overweight based on change of body composition, oxidative stress and inflammatory markers. This research used experimental model to test structured high intensity interval training program with pre-post test in single group. Comprehensive analysis of training effect in this research consists of measurement of several parameters, such as body composition, inflammatory markers, and oxidative stress markers as the benchmark of training safety. Browning white adipose tissue and cognitive function are complement parameters to the assessment of training effectiveness. Daily food record and physical activity for 3 x 24 hours will be carried out periodically to control confounding factors.
This study compare effect of using survival thermal blanket and draping fabric as substitute for perforated blanket to reduce the incidence of inadvertent perioperative hypothermia in geriatric patients.
The aim of this study is to compare the outcome of microneedling therapy with or without amnion bilayer sheeting on post-burn hypertrophic scar tissue. A clinical trial will be conducted with 17 samples, from September to December 2021.
