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.
There is a report that acetaminophen may have a role in pharmacological closure of PDA (Patent arterial duct) in preterm infants. The investigators conducted this open label non randomized and non control study to try to support that report.
Background Ambient airborne particulate material (PM) is defined according the aerodynamic diameter into coarse, fine, and ultrafine or "nano" sized particles ranging between 2.5-10 µm (coarse), <2.5 µm (fine), and <0.1 µm (nano(. Many studies have examined particle effect on respiratory health in children, mainly by environmental monitoring of coarse and fine particles. Biological assessment of individual exposure to nano sized particles in correlation to adverse health effect was not previously studied. Hypothesis individual exposure to nano sized particles in children is associated with reduction in forced expiratory volume at one second.
The importance of stress as a possible deteriorating factor for schizophrenic patients is well documented. However, this notion is based on subjective experience and retrospective psychological analysis. A novel method of measuring cortisol using hair has a proven correlation to subjective stress in non-clinical as well as psychiatric clinical populations. This pilot study will attempt to assess the use of cortisol hair level, as a marker of stress, to predict clinical deterioration in schizophrenic patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Noninvasive and Continuous Hemoglobin Monitoring (NACHO) for Surgical Blood Management affects transfusion decision making algorithm in the operating room.
Radial artery occlusion may occur after performance of coronary catheterization via the radial artery (transradial approach). In some cases it may be desirable to insert large (7F) catheters via the radial artery, however the impact of increased catheter size on subsequent radial artery patency is unclear. We hypothesize that radial artery occlusion following 7F catheterization is rare and occurs in < 5% of the cases.
The study will assess the safety and performance of an intragastric auto-inflating and degradable balloon
The purpose of the study is to document long-term response in real-life practice after injection cycles with BoNT-A in subjects suffering from idiopathic cervical dystonia (Long-term clinical and pharmaco-economic data).
The focus of this pilot study is to determine if a woman who experiences pain during sexual intercourse has a higher risk of complications during labor and delivery secondary to pelvic floor dysfunction, anxiety and intolerance towards pelvic examinations. Furthermore, it is unclear whether women with prepartum dyspareunia experience an improvement following vaginal delivery. While physicians may expect that vaginal birth improves dyspareunia due to the stretching effect on pelvic floor, to date, there is insufficient evidence to support this claim. The Investigators plan to prospectively study 200 patients at our Institution, collect information regarding birth and follow them, via questionnaires, regarding their dyspareunia postpartum.
A prospective, multi-center, double blind, 2 stage, placebo-controlled, phase II study, evaluating acute intra-coronary injected collagenase prior to routine standard-of-care percutaneous revascularization procedures in subjects with chronic total coronary artery occlusions (CTOs).
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of two different dosing regimen of NOVA22007 (1mg/ml ciclosporin/cyclosporine) eye drops, emulsion versus placebo (vehicle of the formulation) administered four times a day in patients with severe vernal keratoconjunctivitis after 4 months of treatment.
