There are about 21062 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Italy. 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 purpose of Part 1 of this First-in-Human trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability after single ascending oral doses of IOA-289 given to healthy male subjects, compared to placebo. After the oral dose administrations, the amount of IOA-289 present in serum will be determined for pharmacokinetic characterisation. Also the reduction of LPA in plasma will be determined as a pharmacodynamic biomarker. Part 2 is optional and its conduct will be dependent on the pharmacokinetic data generated in Part 1. Part 2 will be a randomized, crossover, open label, single oral dose administration of IOA-289 to healthy male subjects either in a fasted state, or after a high-fat meal.
The primary objective of this multicentric observational retrospective study is to assess the efficacy and safety of SNP as part of the treatment regimen of AHF patients and to identify predictors of efficacy. The primary efficacy endpoint is brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) reduction (at least 25% from baseline levels) 48 hours after initiation of SNP infusion. AHF presentation (de novo or ADHF), systolic blood pression at presentation, left ventricle ejection fraction and dimension, entity of mitral regurgitation and central venous pressure will be evaluated in order to identify predictors of efficacy of SNP (in terms of primary endpoint).
All pregnant women who performed an OGTT following Italian Guidelines and then delivered at our University Hospital from march 2020 to march 2021 were prospectively enrolled in this study. Primary outcome of the study was the number of women to whom was diagnosed GDM with only the fasting glucose value (≥ 92 mg/dl), following Italian Diabetes Societies recommendations for COVID 19 pandemic period. In the same time, we prospectively collected the data of women who became diabetic following the criteria of WHO 1999 (fast glucose value ≥ 120 mg/dl, 2 hours later ≥ 140 mg/dl) still in use in some large countries like India. From the clinical charts, we reported the distribution of risk factors for GDM (maternal age ≥ 35 years, family history for diabetes type 2, ethnia, BMI ≥ 25, previous GDM) and clinical outcomes such as hypertensive disorders, preterm birth, macrosomia, intrauterine growth restriction and Caesarean section in emergency. These data will be compared between the 2 groups consisting in those diagnosed with only IADPSG criteria versus those diagnosed with only WHO '99 criteria.
Many autistic children suffer from chronic constipation. Gut mobilization was obtained administering polyethylene glycol (PEG) at the dose of 6.9 g/d once a day for 6 months in an open trial involving 21 chronically constipated autistic children 2-8 years old, followed prospectively for 6 months. Children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder by DSM-5 and confirmed by ADOS-2 criteria, were evaluated before (T0), 1 month (T1), and 6 months (T2) after intestinal mobilization, recording Bristol stool scale scores, urinary p-cresol concentrations, and behavioral scores for social interaction deficits, stereotypic behaviors, anxiety, and hyperactivity.
The purpose of this study is to monitor severe pain for femur fracture after treatment with paracetamol IV or OR.
This research proposes as its main purpose to evaluate the effectiveness of the intake of Polyglucosamine at a dose of 3 g / day on weight loss in a group of subjects suffering from overweight and mild obesity (BMI between 25 and 32 kg / m2). and with weight> 75 kg
In the present study the investigators compare the clinical outcome corneal cross linking with either the stand-ard Dresden (sCXL) or the accelerated custom-fast (aCFXL) ultraviolet A irradiation protocol using riboflavin-D-α-Tocopheryl polyethyleneglycol1000 succinate for progressive keratoconus.
Oral mucositis (OM) is an inflammatory mucosal demolition frequently observed during treatments for neoplastic diseases such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy. The side effects of these treat-ments often drastically reduce patients' quality of life. OM are the result of the systemic consequences of chemotherapy and radiotherapy which, due to their cytotoxic and local effects, lead to pain and severe ulceration with a consequent decrease in the quality of life of affected subjects. Plasma Rich in Fibrin is often used to enhance soft tissue wound healing and fight bacterial sepsis through the presence of leukocytes within it. Aim of the retrospective study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of topic use of platelet gel in clinical management of oral mucositis in order to improve life quality of patients.
This study is aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of Colilen IBS, a Medical Device made of natural substances, even when taken in addition to other therapies, for the treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
It's a pilot study with an open label randomized-controlled design. Estimated number of patients should have been 38, taking in account of a maximal drop out up to 20% of the sample. We enrolled 35 patients, 27 of whom terminated the study as per protocol (14 in the Low protein (LP) group and 13 in the Normo Protein (NP) group). Patients were treated for six months with two different dietary prescriptions: 1. LP group (n=17) was prescribed high calories/low proteins diet (30 Kcal/kg and 0.6-0.7gr/kg respectively). In order to assure prescribed calorie intake, this group was supplemented with commercial protein free products (protein content <2%). 2. NP group (n=18) was prescribed high calories/normal proteins diet (30 kcal/kg and 0.8 gr/kg respectively). The primary hypothesis of the study was that in CKD patients at risk of malnutrition (4 ≤ MIS ≥7) with a persistent spontaneous low protein and calories intake, the prescription of a LP diet was not inferior to NP diet regarding the development of malnutrition (i.e.MIS ≥ 8). We also wanted to test whether in these patients, the prescription of a LP diet was superior to the NP comparator regarding the control of the metabolic complication of chronic kidney diseases (i.e hyperphosphatemia, inflammation and metabolic acidosis), the progression on dyna/sarcopenia, inflammation and possibly on the progression of renal disease itself.
