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.
Adolescents suffering of ADHD may have impaired driving performance. The investigators would like to check the differences in driving performance in young adults(aged: 15-18 years) with ADHD by driving simulator and seat pressure mapping with and without methylphenidate medication.
The primary objective of this trial is to assess the ability of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation with H coil to prefrontal cortex , with an addition of cognitive brain training, to improve cognitive performance in patients with Alzheimer's disease which received drug treatment. This study is a single-center, double-blind 4 months duration trial.
To date, there have been no formal clinical studies completed using tiotropium in CF patients. While there is a large body of evidence demonstrating the efficacy and safety of tiotropium in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), relatively little is known about its efficacy and safety in patients with a diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. Therefore, Boehringer Ingelheim proposed to profile the long acting anticholinergic tiotropium and to generate adequate clinical data for use as a bronchodilator in paediatric and adult CF. The phase III trial (205.438) is a part of the approved Paediatric Investigation Plan (PIP) agreed for Spiriva® Respimat® in Cystic Fibrosis.
During the second week of September( week 38 of the year)there are recorded data of exacerbation of asthma all over the world, including Israel. A short preventive treatment of 6 weeks may reduce asthma exacerbation in children,reduce primary care and ER visiting and hospitalization.
This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North and South America. The aim of this trial is to determine the long term effect of liraglutide on cardiovascular events in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
Incidence of Bacteremia Following Argon Plasma Coagulation in Patients with Endobronchial Lesions
In the recent decades, with technology development, computer workstation has become fundamental both at work and at home environments, and is now used routinely for many purposes. Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) are most often characterized by backaches, neck and upper extremities pain, discomfort and pain in joints, muscles and soft tissues. Since it has been found that many musculoskeletal disorders are connected, among others, to biomechanical and psychosocial factors relating to a person's work environment, the literature refers to them as Work Related MSD (WRMSD). Risk factors correlated with WRMSD include repetitive motions, awkward positions or static muscle loading over prolonged periods of time, use of high keystroke force, direct mechanical pressure, vibration and extreme temperatures. Computer operators found to be sitting statically for a long time in front of the computer and keyboard, with limited options of changing body position. Psychosocial factors have also been implicated in the workstation musculoskeletal disorders with computer operators. Workers with WRMSD may suffer from persistent pain, loss of function and work disability. Therefore, it may include changes in the employment and earnings for injured workers. The complex nature of these injuries suggests that workplace rehabilitation interventions are a crucial aspect of treatment management. The main objective of this study is to explore the use of biofeedback intervention, based on tele-rehabilitation principle, with computer operators suffer from WRMSD. Treatment efficacy will be tested by use of RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) method. Data analysis will be done by ANOVA Repeated Measures. Hypothesis: Biofeedback intervention, based on tele-rehabilitation principle, will be found effective with computer operators suffer from WRMSD.
Studies has found a connection between breakfast consumption and obesity and obesity-related complications, but only few studies examined the effect of breakfast size. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of breakfast size on several parameters in adults with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Sonographic coronal section in the lateral fetal ventricles shows echogenic area in the ventricles borders creating an "halo" around the ventricles. Histologically this area correlates to the Stratified transitional field. In this study we would like to measure this area for the purpose of creating a nomogram.
Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is still one of the most important causes of morbidity in adults. (1) In severe cases, parapneumonic effusions or empyema may develop. In these patients, a transitional fibrin neomatrix constitutes part of the acute inflammatory response as seen in sepsis. The aim is to study the fibrinolytic activity in patients with CAP alone versus CAP with parapneumonic effusions with and without empyema.
