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 first study with rivaroxaban in pediatric subjects is a Phase I study, where the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profile of rivaroxaban will be investigated to confirm that the exposure is comparable to adults. This study is a single dose study with multiple PK/PD measurements in pediatric subjects at the end of their Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) treatment.
The current study will focus on two phases of anxiety process: Generating Anxiety (reported, direct and physiological) and Emotional Regulation Strategies (Reappraisal, Mindfulness, Expressive Suppression and Rumination). The claim is that better understanding of these phases in relation to CBT treatment will lead to better understanding of remission in anxiety and to better treatments in the future. Objectives: To understand the relations between the four strategies of emotional regulation to anxiety disorder hence to understand the relation between these strategies to treatment effectiveness of children with anxiety disorder. Methods: In phase one, clinically anxious adolescence before treatment (N=40) and healthy controls (N=40) will be compared. Anxious adolescence are expected to have significantly higher levels of physical arousal and will use spontaneously more expressive suppression and rumination and less reappraisal and mindfulness then the healthy controls. In phase two, clinically anxious adolescence (N=40) before and after 8-12 weeks of CBT treatment will be compared. More specifically remitted patients will be compared with partially remitted patients. Remitted patients are expected to show better improvement in the physical arousal, then partially remitted. More, Decrease in levels of anxiety will be mediated by the four emotional regulation strategies, and the efficiency of using the Reappraisal will be higher.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dehydroepiandrosterone supplementation on in vitro fertilization performance and outcome among poor-responder patient.
Plantar Fasciitis (PF) is the most common foot condition treated by healthcare providers, striking approximately 2 million Americans each year. Nevertheless its causes are still not known. The risk factors for PF are known and the diagnosis, which is based on clinical assessment, is relatively simple. Still most of the treatments for PF focus on short term symptoms relief instead of prevention or reduction of recurrence. Physical therapy treatment that focuses on reducing the symptoms for the long run and prevention, should include outcome measures, which if found to be reliable, will make the diagnosis clearer. Diagnosis based on reliable clinical and functional measures will assist the physical therapist to understand the major deficiencies of the patient, and accordingly to help him to make the right decision in choosing treatment. Also comprehensive knowledge of the characteristics of PF may enable selection of appropriate preventive measures.
Low back pain ( LBP) is a significant health problem which affects about 70%-80% of the population during the course of their life . The majority of LBP is resolved within 3 months; however, up to 40% of LBP becomes chronic. One subgroup of chronic LBP is patients with sciatica. Sciatica is characterized by radiating pain to the buttock and lower limb, with or without low back pain. It has been shown in the upper limb that by positioning the contra-lateral arm in tension the investigators actually reduce tension in the ipsilateral arm. Patients, who present with symptoms like sciatica, can benefit from this maneuver (neural dynamics techniques) that reduces tension through the contra-lateral leg. Working Hypothesis: Compared with a placebo maneuver of the upper limb, the neural dynamics techniques will result in better rehabilitation of individuals with radicular LBP.
This study will compare the impact of including exenatide once weekly in addition to usual care vs. usual care without exenatide on major cardiovascular outcomes as measured by the primary composite endpoint of cardiovascular-related death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), or nonfatal stroke.
The study hypothesis is that adalimumab induces mucosal healing in the small bowel and that mucosal healing correlates with disease activity. 30 Patients with isolated active small bowel Crohn's disease which are candidates to receive anti-TNF treatment will be included in the study. All patients will undergo patency capsule examination and capsule endoscopy afterwards. Small bowel endoscopic disease severity will be assessed by the capsule endoscopy Crohn's disease activity index (CECDAI). The patients will receive Adalimumab (Humira)injections (160mg,80mg and 40mg every 2 weeks ) for 12 weeks. on week 14 a second capsule endoscopy will be performed and CECDAI calculated again. The patients clinical condition, CDAI,IBDQ and laboratory results including CRP, CBC and fecal calprotectin will be assessed on weeks o, 7 and 14 and results will be compared with the endoscopic score.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether hair levels of cortisol and testosterone are elevated in patients with acute MI compared to controls.
The aim of the study is to observe and document surgical practice and evaluate patients' outcomes following a MAST™ single or double level instrumented fusion procedure using PLIF (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion) or TLIF (Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion) techniques for the treatment of the degenerative lumbar spine in a "real-world" patient population.
The SyNAPSe trial will study if giving intravenous (i.v.) progesterone within 8 hours of the injury for a total of 120 hours to severe traumatic brain injury patients improves their recovery.
