There are about 9745 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Israel. 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 accepted recommendation after removal of vocal cord lesion is voice rest.This recommendation leads to great tension among the patients, loss of working days and need to practice speech therapy.The investigators hypothesize that voice rest after surgery does not affect the quality of the patient's voice. The investigators will divide the patients into 2 groups: the first group will be instructed for a postoperative voice rest and the second group will not. Later the investigators will compare the results and conclude whether voice rest had any significance.
This study is design in a clinical setting for testing whether physical therapy treatment that includes postural awareness exercises for strength flexibility and endurance is improving low back pain and postural behavior. The study will consist of two groups, basic treatment that will get one on one treatment once a month for 3 months and the intervention group, will get an additional group therapy once a week.
Pregnancy and vaginal delivery are considered as the main risk factors for damage to the pelvic floor. There are various ways to measure the strength of the pelvic floor and to evaluate functional problems. Manual mobilization of the pelvic floor is a well-known treatment modality, however, ample knowledge exists on the efficacy of physiotherapy and exercise for improvement of pelvic floor function and strength. The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of pelvic floor fascial mobilization (PFFM) technique on the function and strength of the pelvic floor muscles as well as parameters presumed to be influenced by the strength of the pelvic floor in pregnant women.
Adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes often have a difficult time achieving good glucose control, which is so important in reducing the risk for diabetes complications. Despite the use of multiple daily injections or insulin pumps and glucose sensors, there is still a need for many individuals to further improve glucose levels without causing low blood glucose levels (hypoglycemia) or adding to the daily burden of living with diabetes. Today an insulin pump can receive glucose readings from a continuous glucose monitor and adjust the insulin delivery in an attempt to keep glucose levels in a more optimal range. These systems are called hybrid closed loop (HCL). This means that much of the insulin delivery is automated, yet the patient still interacts regularly with the system, particularly to help determine the insulin dose to deliver to cover a meal. Results of early studies using HCL systems in adolescents and adults with type 1 diabetes are encouraging. The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of the automated insulin delivery (AID) system with proportional integral-derivative (PID) algorithm (Minimed 670G 3.0 HCL) to an AID system with combined PID and Fuzzy Logic Algorithm (Minimed 670G 4.0 Advanced Hybrid Closed-Loop (AHCL)). The trial will test the hypothesis that the Minimed AHCL can reduce daytime hyperglycemia, currently the biggest challenge for AID systems, without increasing hypoglycemia. Up to 124 adolescents and young adults (ages 14-<30) will be recruited to test each system for three months in a randomized crossover trial. Investigators will compare how effective each hybrid closed loop system is at preventing high blood glucose readings during the day. The investigators will also evaluate the safety of each system and how participants adjust to the daily use of the technology.
This long-term extension study is an open-label, multiple-dose study to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, efficacy and PD of vamorolone administered once daily by liquid oral suspension over a Treatment Period of 24 months to young boys with DMD who participated in the VBP15-002 Phase IIa and VBP15-003 Phase IIa extension core studies.
While the exact pathogenesis of Intradialytic hypertension remains to be determined, several mechanisms were proposed to be involved. The main factors to determine the arterial blood pressure are the peripheral vascular resistance and cardiac output. The assumption is that the increase of blood pressure is related to the increase in peripheral vascular resistance during the dialysis session, due to fluid removal and fast reduction of the intravascular volume reduction. Using the NICAS device (Non-Invasive Cardiac System), the hemodynamic profile in patients with intradialytic hypertension will be evaluated
This is a Phase III, global, double-blind, 2-arm randomized study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab + paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab versus placebo + paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab. Study participants will have Stage 3 or 4 ovarian cancer (OC), fallopian tube cancer (FTC), or primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) with macroscopic residual disease postoperatively (i.e., after primary tumor reductive surgery) or who will undergo neoadjuvant therapy followed by interval surgery.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate safety, efficacy, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) for 12 weeks in adults on dialysis for end stage renal disease (ESRD) with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection of any genotype.
A prospective randomized controlled study intended to compare the efficacy of 2 methods of robotic assisted sacrocolpopexy for the repair of vaginal apex prolapse: 1. Via single-port. 2. Via multi-port.
Patients after vaginal delivery will undergo 3 trans-vaginal ultrasounds in order to examine the process of cervical recuperation post delivery.
