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 objective of this study is to investigate the aesthetic performance of the Hyaluronic acid (HA)-based dermal filler Profhilo® injected by a novel bio aesthetic point technique ("BAP" techinique ) in woman aged 40-65 years with skin flaccidity and roughness of the neck.
single institution cases series review of histological and clinical data of young patient with Giant Cell Tumors
The current study is a crossover trial, aiming at evaluating the effect of NAVA -NIV compared to Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (PC-NIV) at the same level of peak inspiratory pressure, in terms of: breath-by-breath variability of tidal breathing amplitude, variability of the other breathing patterns; lung mechanics; gas exchange; rate of episodes of apnea; bradycardia and desaturations; respiratory asynchrony and comfort, in preterm infants < 37+0 weeks+days post-menstrual age.
Patients with heart failure (HF) have an amelioration in clinical outcomes during a restricted dietary salt intake. To date, they experienced an amelioration of functional New York Association Heart (NYHA) class, reduction of hospital admissions, and mortality, in a percentage about 60%. However, these data have been not investigated in CRTd patients with HF under a condition of restricted vs. normal dietary salt intake. In the present study authors will evaluate clinical outcomes in patients treated by Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy with a defibrillator (CRT-d) and restricted dietary salt intake (group 1) in addition to conventional heart failure (HF) therapy vs. CRTd patients under conventional dietary salt intake and conventional HF therapy (group 2). The study will be conducted during a 12-months of follow-up, to evaluate the prognosis of CRTd patients treated with restricted (n 271) vs. a matched cohort of CRTd patients treated with normal salt dietary intake in addition to conventional HF therapy (n 288). Authors' opinion is that, restricted salt intake in addition to conventional HF therapy might significantly reduce body weight and heart chambers volumes in CRTd patients, leading to a significant improvement of ejection fraction and of the 6 minutes walking test (6MWT), and to a reduction of the arrhythmic burden. Consequently, restricted salt intake in addition to conventional HF therapy might reduce hospital admissions for heart failure worsening.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of guselkumab for the treatment of palmoplantar psoriasis.
Functional recovery after total knee replacement (TKR) is characterized by an incomplete muscle strength due to arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) and tendency to estimate the functional level. These deficits could be related to alteration of sensory feedback, and could influence the ability to modulate patients' motor performance. To date, there are not studies investigatin the ability to modulate the motor performance in patients with TKR compared to healthy age-matched subjects. In this study 20 patients with TKR and 20 healthy will be included . Inclusion criteria are: age between 40 and 80 , TKR for primary knee osteoarthritis, knee flexion ≥ 90° and complete knee extension, ability to perform a sit to stand on a 46 cm high chair and to walk for at least 50 meters without aids. Exclusion criteria: patients undergoing TKR after traumas, previous tibial or femoral osteotomy, partial or complete revision surgery. subjects with psychiatric and/or cognitive impairments, or with neurological, musculoskeletal or other disorders that could influence motor or functional recovery will be also exluded. The aim of the study is to investigate the ability in motor performance modulation in patients after TKR compared to healthy age-mtched subjects. Primary endpoint is to investigate this ability during a leg extension performed in open kinetic chain. This ability will be also evaluated during a Sit To Stand and during walking (with 10 Meters Walking Test). Secondary endpoint is to investigate pain, rate of perceived exertion and perceived load symmetry during the three tests. In both healthy and TKR groups these outcomes will be detected two times. In particular, in TKR group, patients will be tested the day before surgery and 5 days after surgery. This study is aimed at conducting a survey in healthy subjects and in a population of subjects undergoing TKR . Participants will undergo an acquisition similar to others already described in the literature and without adverse events. Tests will last about 60 minutes and during them, will be used the equipment of Motion Analysis Lab of "Humanitas Research Hospital".
Irradiation of level III and IV draining nodes in breast cancer patients is often associated with dysphagia, requiring treatment with FANS and/or steroids. The present randomized phase III trial determined whether Zinc-L-Carnosine ( Hepilor), prevents or delays the onset of dysphagia in these patients.
the trial aims to evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of gadopiclenol for Central Nervous System (CNS) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of etrasimod on clinical remission in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how safinamide, rasagiline and other SoC drugs are associated with the quality of life of PD patients by means of the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ)-39 items.
