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 overall objectives of this study are to develop two indices capable of measuring intestinal damage, and, separately, inflammatory disease activity in Pediatric Crohn's disease by means of Magnetic Resonance Imaging with Enterography protocol (MRE) and pelvic MRI.
Study hypothesis - this study will assess the presence of endothelial dysfunction in patients with Crohn's disease before and after 12 weeks treatment of anti TNF α.
Oncologic patients often report increased fatigue during and after chemotherapy. Evidence suggests Tai-chi/Qi-gong may improve quality of life (QOL) in oncologic patients treated with chemotherapy. Previous studies, mostly performed in a population of breast cancer patients, have demonstrated the benefits of Tai-chi/Qi-gong practice in improving quality of life (1), reducing bone resorption (2), preventing the decrease of blood counts (WBC and Hb) (3), and reducing inflammation (4). The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the effect of Tai-chi/Qi-gong on QOL, sleep, and fatigue in patients with gynecological malignancies, particularly in patients with ovarian cancer.
Ovarian torsion is one of the gynecological emergency. This complication requires high clinical suspicion and early detection, to prevent permanent loss of ovarian function. The long uterine ovarian ligament could be a risk factor for ovarian torsion. We want to measure the uterine ovarian ligament length during routine laparoscopy/laparotomy and to compare the length between the torsion group and other non torsion patients
The purpose of this study is to determine whether mothers with Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) has antibodies against platelets in breastfeeding milk aside control group of healthy mothers. In order to prevent severe thrombocytopenia in infants born to mothers with ITP.
Maternal malignancy during pregnancy is estimated to occur in 1 out of 1000 pregnancies. Controversy exists regarding the effect of pregnancy on cancer prognosis. Gestational hormones and pregnancy-related growth factors may induce a more aggressive behavior in malignant cells. However, metastasis to the products of conception is rare. In the current study investigators wish to analyze the effect of placental explants on cancer cells (cervical, ovarian, thyroid, melanoma, lymphoma, leukemia and breast)phenotype (cell death, proliferation, migration , invasion), signaling pathway, mRNA, miRNA and protein expression.
Single center, open-label, single arm, pilot study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability and efficacy of CYCLAPLEX device, a minimal invasive enhanced suture and button implant and surgery tools for correction of inter-metatarsal angle in subjects suffering from mild to moderate Hallux Valgus deformity
Following medical history and clinical examination the children which are scheduled for treatment with suspected pulpary involved primary teeth will be selected. During the regular treatment if a pulp of primary teeth is opened and before the regular pulpotomy procedure is performed the blood that is flowing out of the pulp will be collected and stored until analyzed for the present of inflammatory markers. Clinical and radiographic evaluation will be obtained in follow up appointments if the child will remain in regular treatments in our clinic.
The aims of the APRICOT study are: - To establish the incidence of severe critical events in children undergoing anesthesia in Europe. - To describe the differences in paediatric anaesthesia practice throughout Europe. - To study the potential impact of this variability on the occurrence of severe critical events (Laryngospasm, Bronchospasm, Pulmonary aspiration, Drug error, Anaphylaxis, Cardiovascular instability, Neurological damage, Perianaesthetic cardiac arrest and postanaesthetic Stridor).
- Safety and tolerability of three regimens of intravesically administered BC-819/PEI and BCG (number of participants with AEs, discontinuations due to AEs) - Recurrence after treatment with BC-819/PEI and BCG - Approximately 38 patients with superficial transitional cell carcinoma TCC) of the bladder - After initial evaluation and qualification, patients will be randomized to one of three treatment groups, either alternating, sequential or twice weekly
