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.
In this study, we intend to examine the effectiveness of an indirect calorimetry-guided nutrition plan, compared to the conventional, RDI-guided nutrition plan in mechanically ventilated patients, in terms of success rates of prolonged ventilation weaning, and shorter weaning time period. Hypotheses: The rates of chronically ventilated patients weaned off invasive ventilation will increase by 15% in the intervention group, and the average weaning period in this group will be reduced by 10 ± 4 days. Methods: A randomized controlled intervention trial that will include 200 chronically ventilated patients, admitted to the "Reuth" Rehabilitation Hospital, who meet the criteria for weaning from prolonged mechanical ventilation. Patients in the intervention group (n=100) will undergo precise calorimetric measurements using indirect calorimetry and will be administered with a nutrition plan in accordance with these measurements. Nutrition plans of patients in the control group (n=100) will be calculated and administered according to current RDI conventions (up to 24 Kcal/kg/day). In order to assure blinding, patients in the control group will undergo the same calorimetric measurements using indirect calorimetry, however, these results will not be used in any way to determine or influence the nutritional plan.
Patients who suffer from MDD recieved ketamnie (2014-15) in open study will be addressed and there depression mood will be evaluated using the rating scale that were used in the original research. In addition time of relapse and questions about their medications and drug use will be performed.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to compare the efficacy and safety of the humanized monoclonal anti CD19 antibody tafasitamab plus lenalidomide in addition to R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) versus R-CHOP in previously untreated, high-intermediate and high-risk patients with newly-diagnosed DLBCL
SOCRATES is part of Boston Scientific's (BSC) Post-market surveillance system. The implementation of such systems is mandatory per local regulations such as the Regulation '(EU) 2017/745 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 April 2017 on medical devices' or short Medical Device Regulation (MDR). The SOCRATES design is therefore based on the BSC's commitment as well as external regulatory requirements to proactively and systematically gather, record and analyze relevant data on the quality, performance and safety of devices throughout their entire lifetime.
Background: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most prevalent neurobiological brain disorders. Diagnosis of ADHD in adults is complex and subjective. Recent studies give further support for the involvement of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurotransmitters in the pathophysiology of ADHD. Studies show that glutamate (Glu) and GABA change according to stimulant treatment. Measuring modulations in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) of Glu and GABA may help to explore the pathophysiology of ADHD and give a diagnostic biomarker tool for ADHD in adults. Aim: To characterize Glu and GABA levels in the ACC, by using the proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy ([1H]MRS) system in adults with ADHD compared to healthy control subjects (HCS), before and after stimulant treatment, and to correlate between Glu and GABA levels and clinical symptoms. Method: ADHD adults ages 18-40 years (N= 35), and HCS (N= 25), will fill out a DSMV and ASRS questionnaire. Spectroscopic analyses will be done using 1H MRS (3T) in ADHD adults, before and after stimulant treatment (Methylphenidate /Mixed Amphetamine salts) in an open-label fashion as compared to HCS. Proton spectra will be acquired from the ACC.
Semaglutide is a medicine studied in patients with NASH. Semaglutide is a well-known medicine, which is already used by doctors to treat type 2 diabetes in many countries. Participants will either get semaglutide or a dummy medicine - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will need to inject themselves with medicine under the skin. Participants will need to do this once a week. The study will last for about 5 years. Participants will have up to 21 clinic visits and 9 phone calls with the clinical staff during the study. Some of the clinic visits may be spread over more than one day. Participants with other chronic liver diseases cannot take part in this study. Women cannot take part in the study if they are pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
Patients going through an in vitro fertilization cycle will be asked to participate . Patients will be asked for their COVID-19 exposure : post confirmed disease/post vaccine/not exposed to disease or vaccine . Patients will provide the fluids which are not required , once fertilization process is completed. Patients will also provide 5ml blood sample by the day of procedure. Anti COVID-19 immunoglobulin G type antibodies will be measured in all samples . Data regarding age, date of infection/vaccine will be collected . Progesterone and Estrogen will be measured in female patients' samples and Perlecan level will be measured in follicular fluid.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug, selpercatinib, compared to placebo is effective and safe in delaying cancer return in participants with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), who have already had surgery or radiation. Participants who are assigned to placebo and stop the study drug because their disease comes back or gets worse have the option to potentially crossover to selpercatinib. Participation could last up to three years.
The aim of this study is to assess whether the ETMI method can be implemented among primary care practitioners in the central district of Maccabi Health Services and examine whether it provides a medical and economic advantage.
To evaluate the safety and performance of the Tendyne™ Mitral Valve System when used as intended in a contemporary, real-world setting.
