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.
A joint is considered "hypermobile" when it has a greater range of motion than normal for a given age, ethnicity or gender. Many people have asymptomatic hyperlaxity in multiple joints, a condition called Generalized Joint Hypermobility (GJH). Conversely, hyperlaxity can be symptomatic, a condition that has been defined "Joint Hypermobility Syndrome" - JHS. Diagnosis of JHS is commonly performed by applying the revised Brighton criteria. Based on these criteria, an individual is diagnosed with JHS with a Beighton score >/= 4/9, and arthralgia for 3 or more months in 4 or more joints (major criteria). The dynamic body balance test (i.e. the stability test with multiple single-leg jumps) can provide information regarding the effectiveness of the feedforward and feedback mechanisms in correcting the postural deviations necessary to achieve successful performance during daily and sporting activities. Such assessment may also be useful to demonstrate deficiencies in balance, especially in young patients with increased physical activity. The aim of this study is to examine the postural balance of individuals with JHS by performing stability tests in monopodalic and bipodalic stance with the "Delos Postural Proprioceptive System"
Prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicentric, pilot clinical study to confirm the safety of HiLow hyaluronic acid sodium salt for intralesional penile injection in patients affected by PD.
Non-specific cronic low back pain is very common condition affecting 80-85% of adults. The most common therapies for low back pain are: patient education, excercise and physical therapy. High intensity laser therapy has been shown to be an effective treatment to improve sympthoms in patient with non-specific low back pain when combined wth exercise. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of a multi-wave locked system laser therapy in patient with non-specif low back pain when administered alone.
The purpose of this study is to establish the tolerability, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of CC-97540 in participants with severe, refractory autoimmune diseases.
The aim of this study is to quantify the change in blood pressure when participants with narcolepsy treated with high-sodium oxybate are transitioned to XYWAV, a low-sodium oxybate. The results of this study may provide health care providers (HCPs), patients, and payers with important new information regarding BP changes related to differences in sodium content between available oxybates for the treatment of narcolepsy.
Aim of the study was to assess whether preoperative echocardiography affects time to surgery, length of hospital stay and in hospital mortality in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. In the study entered two hundred fifty -five consecutive patients with hip fracture referred to a multidisciplinary hip fracture unit at a tertiary teaching hospital. Other 717 patients referred before implementation of routine echocardiographic examination were considered as control group. Echocardiography was performed in patients with systolic murmurs, unstable clinical conditions, recent decompensation of heart failure or hospital admission for coronary disease. Time to surgery, length of hospital stay (LOS) and in hospital mortality in patients underwent preoperative echocardiography (high risk group) were compared with patients who did not undergo echo (low-risk group ) and with an historical group.
This is a single arm, open-label, multi-center, phase I/II study to determine the engraftment, safety and clinical activity of allogeneic CARCIK-CD19 cells in adult and pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory mature B-cell neoplasia expected to express CD19 i.e. B-cell NHL and CLL. CARCIK-CD19 will be produced from the peripheral blood of an at least haploidentical familial donor.
The primary objective of this phase III trial is to investigate if Rituximab can reduce patients' functional impairment caused by MG. The secondary objectives of this trial are to assess whether treatment with rituximab in patients with MG will: - Allow faster and greater corticosteroid tapering - Reduce the frequency of exacerbations - Improve quality of life - Offer an acceptable safety and tolerability profile.
The objective is to study the joint kinematics of the prosthetic implant, in terms of translation, rotation, Range of motion and proprioception, in patients treated for prosthetic replacement of the ankle, quantitatively and under physiological load conditions.
The objective of the study is to evaluate post-operatively the postural control through the Delos system with the Riva method of patients already treated surgically of external capsulo-ligament reconstruction due to ankle instability.
