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.
The objective of this post marketing observational registry is to evaluate clinical outcomes (safety and performance) in an all-comers population with coronary artery disease (CAD) treated with the Polymer Free Sirolimus Eluting Coronary Stent Vivo ISAR and planned for an abbreviated (≤ 3 months) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) regimen.
Routine non surgical periodontal thearpy often fails to achieve complete elimination of pathogenic microorganism. This could be attiributable to deep periodontal pockets, root concavities, furcation involvement etc. Systemic and local antimicrobials have been used adjunctively with scaling and root planning to optimize the results. They have their own draw backs namely antibiotic resistance and narrow spectrum of action over periodontal pathogens. In the last decade lasers applications have diversified occupying greater part of the periodontal treatment strategies. Photodynamic thearpy has shown conflicting results as a adjunctive thearpy. The routinely used dyes are Methyelene blue, indocyanine green and rose bengal .These dyes are difficult to procure and may not be economical . Hydrogen peroxide due to its super radicals has a local antimicrobial effect. Since hydrogen peroxide can be easily available in a clinical setting and is cost effective. It could be used for photodisinfection . From the near-infrared spectrum lasers, the Nd-YAG laser can remove periodontal pathogens because of its thermal effect. However, changes in the neighboring tissues can be attributed to these unwanted thermal effects. The diode lasers that belong to the 655-980 nm spectrum could represent a safer alternative.Because of the transmission or scattering effect on hydroxyapatite, diode lasers have no effect on calculus. Anaerobic bacterial species intermedia produce black pigments in Brucella media from blood agar. Hemoglobin in the soft periodontal tissues behaves like a chromophore, being absorbed by the diode laser. Photoactivated procedure use photolysis of hydrogen peroxide with 810nm laser. It acts as an endogenous dye, which can increase the laser effect at this level and also generate ROS stopped immediately after the laser irridation. Therefore, the diode laser stimulation of 3%hydrogen peroxide has been utilized adjuvantive to SRP to optimize clinical outcome.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of ZYIL1 oral capsule twice a day for 12 weeks for treatment of mild to moderate active ulcerative colitis resistant or intolerant to oral aminosalicylates.
Glycogen storage disorders (GSD) are a class of inborn metabolic abnormalities characterized by enzymatic defects in glycogen production or breakdown and are one of commonest metabolic disorders of the childhood. Their pathogenesis mostly involves the liver and muscles and can range in severity from minor disorders with a typical lifespan to those that are fatal in infancy. Different GSDs, such as type 0a, I, III (most common type), IV, VI, IX, and XI (based on specific gene variants) are now referred to as hepatic GSDs involving liver (+ muscle). GSDs show clinically in a wide range of ways, and they have typically been identified by combining clinical symptoms, biochemical data, and pathological findings. But due to lack of multicentre evaluation, there is persistent scarcity of data with regard to the overall spectrum of genetic defects in Indian children presenting with GSD, their natural course and genotype-phenotype correlation. Also, there is limited data on common genetic variations in Indian population causing hepatic glycogen storage diseases. An Indian GSD registry is needed to describe the spectrum, natural course, genotype-phenotype correlation, outcome and response to medical therapy in Indian children with GSDs. The study would be the first to extensively describe the genotype of Indian children with GSD and their natural course. Being a multicentric study, the results generated would therefore be applicable to the whole of the country. Understanding the prevalent genotypes in Indian population and their related phenotype would help both the individual management decisions of these patients and further policy making for their diagnosis and treatment. Results from this study could thus guide appropriate decision making based on outcome and help choose the modality of treatment for the individual patient - medical, or liver transplantation.
The value of clinical cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) within healthcare settings has been established in the last decade. CPET methods remain highly relevant in the COVID-19 endemic phase and should be used to assess those recovering from COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. This diagnostic tool could play an integral role in disease prognostication and evaluate the integrative response to incremental exercise. Date from such assessments can enable practitioners to characterise cardio-respiratory fitness and identify reasons for physical impairment or abnormal cardio-respiratory function. More than 50% of patients admitted to hospital will experience cardiorespiratory issues and significant morbidity during their recovery and will require significant rehabilitative support. In this context, measurements obtained from an assessment of cardio-respiratory responses to physiological stress could provide insight regarding the integrity of the pulmonary-vascular interface and characterisation of any impairment or abnormal cardio-respiratory function. Current approaches to rehabilitation are being developed on existing knowledge from Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) related illness. These provide important insight but do not provide insight into the novel challenges provided by COVID-19.
The goal of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of novel stem cell formulation in patients having Geographic Atrophy (GA) Secondary to Dry Age-related Macular Degeneration (d-AMD). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Safety and tolerability of the novel stem cell formulation - Potential efficacy of the novel stem cell formulation Participants will receive a single subretinal injection in their study eye and followed up for safety. This is an India only study and the product is developed indigenously.
ACLF is defined differently in APASL,EASL and AASLD.APASL talks of reversibility in ACLF as per its definition and constitution of Homogenous population with ACLF.The definition of ACLF as per APASL is an acute hepatic insult manifesting as jaundice (serum bilirubin ≥ 5 mg/dL (85 micromol/L) and coagulopathy (INR ≥ 1.5 or prothrombin activity <40%) complicated within 4 weeks by clinical ascites and/or encephalopathy in a patient with previously diagnosed or undiagnosed chronic liver disease/cirrhosis, and is associated with a high 28-day mortality .From the point of view of intensivists, events in form of organ dysfunction , failure or mortality would cumulatively effect the outcome.Reversibility of ACLF syndrome is a feature of the ACLF defined by the AARC criteria, as nearly all the patients included are after the index presentation.With mitigation of the acute insult and over time, the hepatic reserve improves ,fibrosis regresses and the portal pressure decreases. Further, unlike patients with decompensated cirrhosis and similar to patients with ALF, the reversal of coagulopathy preceded the reversal of jaundice,that is ,median time to reversal of syndrome, i.e jaundice and coagulopathy was 7 (4-30)days versus 19 (7-60)days for jaundice, respectively. The median time for reversal of syndrome, i.e, jaundice and coagulopathy ,was 30 days. Baseline albumin, AARC score and Transient elastography predicted long term reversibility .The disease severity assessment is needed for prognostication and to guide the therapy. Furthermore,the available prediction scores have been validated at baseline,but none has been evaluated in a dynamic manner for prognostication in ACLF patients.A DYNAMIC Model that could predict the reversibility in ACLF is urgently required.

Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy is seen as a blunted contractile responsiveness to stress, and/or altered diastolic relaxation with electrophysiological abnormalities, in absence of known cardiac disease. Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is associated with risk of hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) , septic shock. , heart failure in the perioperative period following liver transplantation, and after trans-jugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) insertion . The echocardiographic E/e' ratio is a predictor of survival in LVDD, with multiple studies, including prospective data from our Centre. The inability of the heart to cope with stress or sepsis induced circulatory failure is a key concept of the increased mortality risk due to LVDD. In view of the metabolic syndrome and diabetes epidemic and an increasing number of patients being diagnosed with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, there is increased risk of developing cardiac dysfunction due to multiple comorbidities including coronary artery disease, hypertensive heart disease, cirrhotic cardiomyopathy, which are contributors to overall cardiovascular risk of mortality.
