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.
A controlled, randomized clinical intervention study which includes the development and activation of an intervention program designed to prevent eating disorders among adolescent female aesthetic athletes. Our hypothesis is that the intervention program will yield improvement in the participants' eating behaviors, drive for thinness, and body image as compared with the age matched control group. Results will be measured using the study questionnaire, to be filled out by the participants before, after, and three months after the completion of the program. The Questionnaire will include validated questionnaires with good psychometric qualities.
The aim of this study is to investigate the In Vitro and In Vivo effect of progesterone on immature myeloid cells (IMC), inflammation characteristics and maturation into dendritic cells (DC).
Women arriving to the Urology department outpatient clinic at Assaf-Harofeh Medical Center in order to undergo a cystoscopy examination will be recruited. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of four groups by method of cystoscopy (flexible and rigid) and by use of anesthesia to the introitus. Pain levels will be recorded prior to the examination, during entrance of the cystoscope in the urethral meatus, immediately after the examination and 15 minutes after conclusion.
A Prospective, Open labeled, multi-Center, Evaluation of the Efficacy Safety and Tolerability of Nitric Oxide Given Intermittently via Inhalation to Subjects with NTM (specifically MABSC) Nitric Oxide (NO) has been shown to play a critical role in various biological functions. In the airways, NO is considered to play a key role in the innate immune system in which the first-line of host defense against microbes is built. In vitro studies suggested that NO, in part per million (ppm) concentrations, possesses anti-microbial activity against a wide variety of phyla including fungi, and antibiotic-resistance bacteria. In this study the investigators wish to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of 160 ppm Nitric Oxide intermittently delivered via inhalation to subjects infected with Non-tuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM), specifically with MABSC.
The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of LIK066 on a variety of metabolic and inflammation biomarkers in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)
The current health literacy (HL) pilot intervention was designed through focus groups with women in low socio-economic status (SES) communities. The primary HL issue identified was communication challenges at doctors' visits. As a unique HL intervention tailored to the participants' preferences, this intervention can serve as a model for improving HL in similar communities worldwide. Objectives include increasing the percentage of women who utilize patient-doctor communication skills and increasing their cardiovascular disease (CVD) knowledge. A unique HL intervention tailored to the participants' preferences was designed which consisted of three workshops conducted in municipality-sponsored women's groups in low SES Jerusalem communities. Questionnaires were completed before and three months after the intervention. The study answers the following: Can HL workshops improve patient-doctor communication skills and CVD knowledge in low SES women?
The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of novel oral capsules containing THC and/or CBD, following a single administration to healthy volunteers. The secondary objective of the study was to compare the pharmacokinetic profiles of THC, THC metabolite 11-hydroxy-THC and/or CBD following a single administration of the investigational oral formulations with Sativex® Oromucosal Spray.
This study will evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and durability of treatment effect of ALKS 3831 in subjects with schizophrenia, schizophreniform disorder, or bipolar I disorder
The primary objective of this study is to determine if there will be a greater mean reduction from baseline in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) achieved after 26 weeks of oral double-blind add-on therapy of dapagliflozin or saxagliptin compared to placebo in paediatric T2DM patients with HbA1c levels of 6.5 to 10.5% on diet and exercise and metformin, insulin, or metformin plus insulin.
Small-scale experiments conducted by our group have led to the hypothesis that Localized Provoked Vulvodynia (LPV) may be due to laxity of the Utero-Sacral ligaments (USL). According to this hypothesis, the pain experienced by women with LPV is due to the USL's inability to provide appropriate support for the pudendal nerve. In order to test this hypothesis we will conduct a single-blind randomized control trial in which patients with LPV will undergo a pressure-test - pressure will be temporarily applied to the posterior fornix using a large-sized applicator, thus strengthening the USL and adding support to the pudendal nerve. While the pressure is being applied, the cotton-swab test will be performed (palpating vulvar and vestibular sites using a cotton-swab), and each patient will rate the elicited pain on a scale of 1 to 10 (1 - not painful, 10 - worst pain imaginable). The results for each patient will be compared to their baseline level of pain (which will be recorded in the beginning of the experiment) and to the level of pain they report while inserting a speculum but not applying any pressure.
