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.
This is a multicenter hospital-based prospective cohort study conducted in institutions with known expertise in performing oocytes/embryo freezing for fertility preservation. The study aims at refining the understanding of the efficacy and safety of controlled ovarian stimulation with or without letrozole in young women with newly diagnosed breast cancer who are candidates to receive (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy.
Randomized controlled double-blind trial in a child population with allergic asthma and recurring wheezing, undergoing probiotic treatment with Bifiasthm with the aim of assessing the reduction in asthma attacks.
An innovative methodology is developed to better understand parent-infant relationships. RGB-D sensors (such as Microsoft Kinect) give us the opportunity of online skeleton extraction based on the joints architecture of human bodies. These technologies provide automatic quantitative information of dyadic play, in order to get micro and macro features of the dynamic flow occurring during the interaction. This methodology looks at both behavioral features and objective measurement of spatial proximity and variations during free and structured interactions.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 48-week study intervention with JNJ-73763989+JNJ-56136379+nucleos(t)ide analog (NA) regimen compared to NA alone assessed by HBsAg levels. This study is part of HepB Wings Platform Trial (PLATFORMPAHPB2001).
The primary objective of the study is to characterize the patients who initiate treatment for asthma with DUPIXENT® in a real-world setting to understand the attributes of treated patients in real life. This includes characterization of: - Patient demographics (eg, gender, age, and race) - Patient baseline characteristics (eg, prior medications and procedures, medical history, asthma history, weight, height) The secondary objectives of the study are: - To characterize real-world use patterns of DUPIXENT® for asthma - To assess the long-term effectiveness of DUPIXENT® in asthma patients in a real-world setting - To assess effectiveness on comorbid type 2 inflammatory conditions in asthma patients treated with DUPIXENT® - To collect long-term safety data on study participants in the real-world setting
Poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) represent a component of lipids that covers a relevant role in human diet and biological functions such as provision of energy, functionality of cell membranes and tissue metabolism. Fatty acids carbon chains can be saturated (with no presence of double bonds) or unsaturated (with one or more double bonds). PUFAs fall into the unsaturated group, and they can be divided into two classes: omega-3 (n-3) and omega-6 (n-6) fatty acids (FAs). PUFAs are relevant components of cellular membranes, phospholipids, and precursors of eicosanoids, which influence neuronal development and functioning, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA) in fact are involved in cell growth, neural signaling, and gene expression. The main natural dietary source for Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and DHA is fish oil. It has also been shown how the Magnocellular system, which includes the retinal ganglion cells, the lateral geniculate nucleus (for the visual system, while the medial geniculate nucleus would be involved for the auditory system) of the thalamus, the posterior parietal cortex, various areas visual of the cortex and part of the cerebellum, is sensitive to the contribution of fatty acids through nutrition. A deficit related to the Magnocellular system, specialized in the processing of stimuli with high temporal frequencies and low spatial frequencies, in both the visual and auditory modalities, has been proposed as one of the causes of Developmental Dyslexia (DD). According to this hypothesis, an alteration at the magnocellular level would affect reading by hampering temporal processing of the visual signal and would reduce the quality of the phonological representations due to imperfect acoustic analysis of the incoming phonemes. It is therefore possible to hypothesize that supplementation of PUFA in dyslexic children would improve the functions of the M-system and thus create better conditions to the remediation of reading difficulties, especially through remediation programs specifically tapping visual attention and rapid processing of visual stimuli. The remediation program currently used at Scientific Institute (IRCCS) Medea, "Tachidino", based on tachistoscopic, hemisphere-specific stimulation and on training of selective visual-spatial attention, has exactly these characteristics. Hence, the present study aims to test the efficacy of PUFA supplementation before and during treatment with Tachidino.
The main goal of the study is to verify the efficacy of the GRAIL system in respect to the walking pattern improvement in a population of hemiparetic subjects. In particular, the specific goals will be: - increase in walking symmetry and a better distribution among the time of stance and swing. - Kinematics and Kinetics correction, with incentive of more corrected activation timing. - Recruitment of the muscles most involved by the paresis, with the help of visual feedback. - walking speed increase (but with the priority of the walking pattern) - increase in the resistance - Stregthening of the support reaction
This is a multi-center, open-label, prospective single-arm study of reversal of the antiplatelet effects of ticagrelor with bentracimab (PB2452) in patients who present with uncontrolled major or life-threatening bleeding or who require urgent surgery or invasive procedure. At least 200 patients will be enrolled from approximately 200 centers in North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific regions, including mainland China. Patients with reported use of ticagrelor within the prior 3 days who require urgent ticagrelor reversal will be eligible for enrollment. These populations will be enrolled based on separate inclusion criteria.
The presence of alveolar ridge deficiencies is considered major limitation to achieve an implant-prosthetic restoration with high aesthetics and stability over time. Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) can be considered an effective solution for bone augmentation. The most advanced technology of GBR is the customized titanium mesh, which is developed with a fully digital work flow system. The aim of this study is to evaluate complications and bone augmentation rates after GBR, based on customized meshes with or without collagen membranes. After ethical committee approval, 30 patients with horizontal and/or vertical bone defects were enrolled and treated according to the study protocol. During reconstructive surgery (T0), patients were randomly divided into two study groups: 15 patients were treated by means of a custom-made mesh without collagen membrane (Group A - Control Group), while 15 patients were treated by means of a custom-made titanium mesh with a collagen membrane (Group B - Test Group). All sites were grafted with a mixture 50:50 of autogenous bone and xenograft and primary closures of surgical sites were obtained to ensure a submerged healing of the meshes. After 6 months (T1), re-entry surgery was completed to remove the meshes, evaluate the augmented volume and to place implants in the augmented sites. After 3 months (T2), soft tissue management was accomplished with implant exposure and a connective tissue graft, before prosthetic restoration (T3). Data collection included surgical and healing complications, planned bone volume (PBV) and reconstructed bone volume (RBV), pseudo-periosteum type, bone density, implant success, and crestal bone loss. A statistical analysis of recorded data was performed to investigate any statistically significant differences between the study group and statistical significance was set at a=0.05.
This study is aimed at providing an Italian version of two assessment tools for participation in stroke patients, the Frenchay Activity Index (FAI) and the Walking Handicap Classification (WHC) by a standardized translation and transcultural validation protocol. The protocol includes a pre-test of the Italian version on ten patients, a final revision, and a validation on a sample of 60 stroke patients.
