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.
Acute Stanford type A aortic dissection (TAAD) is a life-threatening condition. Surgery is usually performed as a salvage procedure and is associated with significant postoperative early mortality and morbidity. Understanding the patient's conditions and treatment strategies which are associated with these adverse events is essential for an appropriate management of acute TAAD.
The aim of this study iss to analyze the effect of Lycra garments in the axial stabilization in subjects affected by ataxia, both in acquired cerebellar injuries and malformative etiology. Improvement are expected for what concerns: - greater stability during stance - smoother walking pattern - reduction of risk of fall. The two groups (acquired and malformative) will be compared.
The unCOVer-AF prospective, multicenter registry aims at determining the natural history of atrial fibrillation (AF) via continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring in patients with a first arrhythmic episode during COVID-19 hospitalization.
According to previous scientific evidence lining on biological concept of bone regeneration into the maxillary sinus, an observational study was set up to record possible (hypothesized) difference in bone formation between different width of the maxillary sinus itself. Therefore, a multicenter study was set up that foresaw a surgical intervention of sinus lift with lateral approach, the 6 months healing phase, the implant insertion in two sites with the implant site preparation made by a trephine bur to retrieve a bone specimen for histomorphometric examination without any additive invasively for the patient.
Postoperative non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has been proposed as an attractive strategy to reduce morbidity and improve postoperative outcomes in obese subjects undergoing general anesthesia. Bariatric patients present a peculiar negative feature; the increased body mass index (BMI) correlates with loss of perioperative functional residual capacity (FRC), expiratory reserve volume (ERV) and total lung capacity (TLC), decreased up to 50% of preoperative values. The aim of the current randomized trial is to evaluate the efficacy of NIV in post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) in reducing post-extubation acute respiratory failure and the consequent admission in intensive care units (ICU) after BIBP in obese adult patients.
This study observes the antitumor activity, safety, tolerability, PK, and pharmacodynamics in patients with inoperable and/or metastatic melanoma following prior anti-PD-[L]-1 therapy
To determine whether inhaled Yabro protects against progression of COVID19-induced respiratory failure preventing the passage to non-invasive ventilation (NIV) and promotes recovery from COVID19 lung disease in hospitalized patients.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of peri-implantitis in human im-munodeficiency virus (HIV) -positive patients and the presence of a possible correlation between the immunological profile and serological values, of peri-implantitis, and of pos-sible differences between all-on-4 and single crown/bridge prostheses. Subjects and methods: This retrospective study included 58 adult HIV-positive patients (222 implants) with either all-in-4 prostheses or single crowns/bridges on at least one dental implant loaded for more than a year who were followed for at least one year. Data pertaining to the probing pocket depth (PPD), bleeding on probing, and immunological and systemic profile were collected. Results: Patients with single crown/bridge implant rehabilitation showed higher preva-lence of peri-implantitis (34%) than patients with all-on-4 rehabilitation (0%) (p=0.012). Patients with all-on-4 rehabilitation were significantly older than those with single crowns/bridges (p=0.004). Patients with peri-implantitis had implants for a significantly longer duration than those without (p=0.001), implying that the probability of peri-implantitis increases as the age of implant increases. Conclusions: The prevalence of peri-implantitis was 26% in HIV-positive patients and 8% in dental implants. No correlation was found between patients' immunological and se-rological factors and peri-implantitis. The most important risk factor for peri-implantitis and mucositis was implant age.
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and performance of the Omega™ LAA (Left Atrial Appendage) Occluder and Omega™ Delivery System in LAA (Left Atrial Appendage) closure for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and high bleeding risk.
The gold standard of surgical treatment for patients with early breast cancer (BC) is breast conservation and sentinel node biopsy (SNB). Ongoing randomized trials are evaluating to omit surgery at all when axillary imaging is negative. However, the available diagnostic tools still have several limitations in accuracy. Combining the specificity of PET, with the superior sensitivity of MRI, hybrid PET/MRI might be a non-invasive, one-stage, operator-independent imaging method to accurately define nodal status and, whenever negative, might replace surgery for axillary staging. The project includes patients with <3 cm BC without overt nodal involvement who will undergo PET/MRI prior to surgery. The primary aim is to compare the staging power between SNB and PET/MRI in detecting axillary lymph node macrometastases (>2 mm). Additionally, general concordance and diagnostic accuracy of PET/MRI vs SNB, eventual correlation with BC molecular subtypes and MRI findings will be evaluated.
