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 the present study is to elucidate the qualitative and quantitative variation of ocular flora after treatment with eyedrops containing 0.6% povidone-iodine in the eye of patients undergoing routine cataract surgery.
Patient undergoing laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in steep trendelenburg position are at risk to develop complication from brain edema. Ultrasound assessment of optical nerve sheath diameter is a simply, non-invasive method to estimate the increase of intracranial pressure. It is unknown how optical nerve sheath diameter changes after prolonged head down position.
Lower body positive pressure (LBPP) decreases weight bearing and ground reaction forces, with potentially positive effects on qualitative gait indices. However, which gait features are shaped by LBPP gait training in post-stroke patients is still poorly predictable. A pilot study on the effects of LBPP gait training on qualitative and quantitative gait indices in patients with hemiparesis due to stroke in the chronic phase was carried out. Twenty-five patients who suffered from a first, single, ischemic, supra-tentorial stroke occurred at least 6 months before study inclusion were provided with 24 daily sessions of LBPP treadmill gait training using AlterG device. These patients were compared with 25 age-matched healthy controls (HC), who were formerly provided with the same amount of AlterG training, and 25 patients with the same clinical-demographic characteristics of the first group of patients, who previously underwent conventional treadmill gait training (TGT). Qualitative and quantitative gait features, including Functional Ambulation Categories, gait cycle features, and muscle activation patterns were analyzed before and after the training (AlterG or TGT).
The current study will explore the efficacy, safety and tolerability of 2 dose combinations of JM-010 to determine the optimal doses of each component to be studied in confirmatory clinical trials.
The purpose of this non-interventional study is to identify participants with urothelial cancer (UC) and selected fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) aberrations through molecular testing of their archival tumor tissue.
In renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients, lymph node metastases detection and treatment are the most critical issues in daily clinical decision-making. Indeed, conversely to other oncological settings, a) nodal status imaging, b) sentinel node technique and c) standard lymphadenectomy have been demonstrated inadequate in the staging and management of RCC patients. A novel, accurate, standardized imaging technique is urgently needed in RCC setting to detect macro and micro nodal invasion, to identify those patients who are at higher risk of having nodal metastases, to accurately plan the best management. Recent studies suggested combining 18F-FAZA PET with CT scanning in the detection of cancer-induced hypoxia.The investigators propose to test 18F-FAZA PET-CT in detecting nodal metastases to improve the management of RCC patients.
The aim of this study is to assess the performance of the CB-17-08 to help endoscopists find potential mucosal polyps during the colonoscopy procedure, without significant noise disturbing the endoscopist attention, nor negative interference with the lesions detection than with the standard colonoscopy alone: the study will investigate whether the use of the device provides an increase in the number of adenomas per colonoscopy as compared to standard colonoscopy. The study will also evaluate the safety of the CB-17-08, assessing if the use of the system increases the total number of excisions without a commensurate number of adenomas as compared to standard colonoscopy.
To demonstrate the efficacy of ranolazine in improving coronary microvascular and diastolic dysfunction in patients affected by HCM evaluating changes in maximum (i.e. during dipyridamole-induced coronary vasodilatation) myocardial blood flow (MBF) measured by PET at baseline and after 4 months of treatment with ranolazine in patients with non obstructive HCM.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of verdiperstat (BHV-3241) versus placebo in participants with Multiple System Atrophy
Effects of oral administration of a food supplement constituted by α-lipoic acid, magnesium, vitamin B6 and vitamin D in tablets of 1,2 g administered daily to women presenting risk factors for preterm birth (PTB). The aim is to reduce the rate of short cervix at 19-21 weeks of gestational age and consequently reduce the occurrence of PTB.
