There are about 5618 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in India. 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.
Aim of this study is to assess the influence of vestibular depth on root coverage in Miller class III/ Cairo RT2 gingival recession when treated with minimally invasive technique using connective tissue graft.
Bruxism is a multifaceted phenomenon that has been associated with several factors mediated by the central nervous system3. Bruxism is an umbrella term grouping different motor phenomenon. 'Bruxism is a repetitive jaw-muscle activity characterized by clenching or grinding of the teeth and/or by bracing or thrusting of the mandible. Bruxism has two distinct circadian manifestations: it can occur during sleep (indicated as sleep bruxism) or during wakefulness (indicated as awake bruxism5. Sleep bruxism is considered to be a putative exacerbating factor, rather than a causative factor of periodontal disease and night-guards have been used as a counter measure. Since the periodontium in sleep bruxism patients suffers from excessive occlusal force for long periods of time during sleep, the function of the periodontium in such patients may differ from that in patients without sleep bruxism. Awake bruxism is defined as masticatory muscle activity during wakefulness that is characterized by repetitive or sustained tooth contact and by bracing or thrusting of the mandible.Given the potential impact of abnormal forces on the periodontium, understanding the relationship between bruxism and periodontal disease is crucial for the prevention and management of these conditions. This study aims to explore the mechanisms by which bruxism affects the periodontium and to assess the impact of bruxism in the outcome of subgingival instrumentation for the management of Stage 2 and Stage 3 periodontitis.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of Prophylactic EUS-gastroenterostomy (ProEUS-GE) as a preventative approach for malignant gastric outlet obstruction (MGOO) in men and women aged 18 years or older diagnosed with periampullary cancer. The main question this study aims to answer is can ProEUS-GE effectively prevent the occurrence of MGOO in patients with periampullary cancer? Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: Group 1 (ERCP alone) or Group 2 (ERCP + ProEUS-GE). The study will compare the outcomes between these groups to determine the effectiveness of ProEUS-GE in preventing MGOO. Researchers will compare Group 1 (ERCP alone) with Group 2 (ERCP + ProEUS-GE) to see if the addition of ProEUS-GE leads to a reduced occurrence of MGOO in patients with periampullary cancer. The primary endpoint is the rate of malignant gastric outlet obstruction.
Prolonged circulatory shock is associated with marked disturbances in vascular supply to the brain, and endothelial dysfunction which can lead to disseminated intravascular coagulation and microvascular thrombosis. Pituitary dysfunction is documented following post-partum hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury and subarachnoid hemorrhage, which also affect blood flow to the pituitary. However, there are no studies assessing pituitary function in the aftermath of recovery from shock. This will be a prospective observational study of patients admitted in Critical Care Medicine (CCM) ICU who have recovered from prolonged septic shock (Lasting for a period of > 24 hours). Blood samples of the participants will be estimated at the time of discharge from the ICU and at 6 months post discharge. Investigators will estimate fasting serum cortisol, TSH, Free T4, Testosterone (in males), Oestrogen (in females), LH, FSH, Prolactin, IGF-1 and plasma ACTH in all participants at both time points (at the time of ICU discharge and at 6-months follow-up). Participants who have borderline serum cortisol values (138-400 nmol/l) will be subjected to 250ug ACTH stimulation test. Expected outcome of the proposed study is to know proportion of patients having pituitary hormone axis dysfunction. Investigators will also look for pituitary dysfunction persist or revert, or there are new onset dysfunction at 6 month follow up. This would have major implications in the follow up and management of ICU survivors.
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering disorder most commonly affecting the older population between 60-80 years old. The characteristic feature of BP is itchy patches associated with blisters and erosions. BP significantly affects the patient's quality of life as it causes physical discomfort with itchy patches, blisters, and erosions. Several pieces of evidence from previous studies showed that the production of autoantibodies against the hemidesmosomal anchoring proteins BP180 (Bullous Pemphigoid antigen (BPAG 2)) and BP230 (BPAG 1) is the most common cause for bullous pemphigoid. Therapeutic latency, lack of efficacy in many patients, and adverse drug reactions are the primary concerns in the current bullous pemphigoid treatment paradigm, including high-dose steroid treatment. To overcome these treatment challenges, combination therapy with agents having a steroid-sparing effect like mycophenolate mofetil, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, and Methotrexate are tested as an add-on to low-dose steroids. 8So other immunosuppressive agents with better safety profiles and more efficacy, like Dapsone and Methotrexate as an add-on to low-dose steroids, can be used. Investigator's literature search found no randomized controlled trial with Dapsone versus Methotrexate as an add-on to first-line steroid has been conducted to compare the efficacy and safety in bullous pemphigoid patients. So, a randomized controlled trial has been planned to evaluate the safety and efficacy of add-on methotrexate versus Dapsone in bullous pemphigoid patients.
The purpose of eVOLVE-Lung02 is to test the effectiveness (efficacy) and measure the safety of volrustomig in combination with chemotherapy compared with pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy as 1L treatment in participants with mNSCLC in PD-L1 < 50%.
An open-label, first-in-human, Phase 1 study in adult patients with relapsed advanced lymphomas will be done to assess AUR108 safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and optimal biological dose.
A multi-center randomized clinical trial is proposed to study the effectiveness of the advanced decision support tool Opt-IVF for ALL PROTOCOLS in reducing medication, testing, and improving outcomes.
A randomized, double-blind, three-arm, placebo-controlled, safety, and efficacy study of plant-based Biotin and plant-based Biotin with Silica in healthy adult human subjects with complaints of hair fall, thin, dry, and brittle hair, and dry skin. A sufficient number (maximum of 105 (35 subject/test treatment)) of female/male adult subjects will be recruited/enrolled to ensure a total of 96 subjects (32 subjects/test treatment) complete the study.
The purpose of the D4325C00007 study is to identify and characterise patients with known or newly diagnosed CKD for possible participation in future renal clinical studies and to obtain an overview on current treatment choices for this patient group in different regions.
