There are about 5012 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Mexico. 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 phenomena of biological adaptation and overtraining are closely related terms, that is why in sport it is possible to identify two types of overtraining. The first of these is known as short-term overtraining, which is required as a state of peripheral fatigue induced by repeated sessions of physical activity in short periods of time that are related to mechanisms of metabolic type, is considered desirable and normal, by allowing mechanisms of adaptation to be activated depending on the nature and administration of the loads, which allow reaching higher yield quotas. The second, long-term overtraining, is characterized by a series of signs and symptoms of exhaustion and persistent fatigue that take place at the level of the central nervous system and that are produced by the imbalance between demanding physical work and recovery periods.This type of condition is also known as, general syndrome of overtraining (GSO), unexplained low performance syndrome, staleness or burnout, which is propitiated by the need to achieve maximum physical performance and the performance of physical activities in a uncontrolled that cause an interruption to the processes of biological recovery that attenuate the obtaining of the physical form wished, reason why the sportsman experiences a decrease of the physical and mental performance, manifested in a clinical picture that reflects muscular inflammation, headache, elevation sudden blood pressure, loss of functional capacity, alterations of the central nervous system (CNS), metabolic, endocrine and immune systems. The stretching is commonly used as a method of physical rehabilitation. The actual information about how the GSO can reduce or prevent in the athlete are no cleared yet, that is the way the information regarding the relationship with the GSO, the stretching, the expression of BDNF and the effects can produce in the regenerative capacity in the over-trained subjects and their compensatory mechanisms during the different cycles of physical exercise, is null, making necessary the investigation of the effects that can produce in the decrease of factors that indicate GSO.
This is a randomised Phase III, double-blind, multicentre, cross-over study to compare the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity between SB12 and Soliris® in subjects with PNH.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Rozibafusp Alfa could be a useful therapeutic agent in the current treatment landscape where subjects with SLE have ongoing disease activity despite treatment with standard of care therapies.
Pilot study. The primary end point is the evaluation the efficacy of treatment with atorvastatin compared to colchicine for the decrease of high sensitivity troponin I levels in patients with rheumatoid arthritis with severe activity according of the Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS 28> 5.1), through a randomized controlled clinical trial blinded to the rheumatologist and the cardiologist who will carry out the evaluation of the patient.
Barrett's esophagus is a complication of chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease that occurs in up to 10% to 15% of patients with this pathology. Well-defined risk factors have been established and are important because they are considered a precancerous lesion (intestinal metaplasia). The conventional diagnostic methods are ineffective in reliably detecting potentially treatable lesions. Investigators propose the use of vital chromoendoscopy with acetic acid using the simplified classification of Portsmouth looking for areas with loss of acetowhitening and taking targeted biopsies to increase the detection of esophageal neoplastic lesions.
Prospective clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of catheter lock with bicarbonate vs heparin in chronic hemodialysis patients. Two groups will be created, sodium bicarbonate lock group (experimental group) and heparin lock group (control group). Catheter pressures, flow, patency and infection outcomes will be compare between groups at different time points (30, 60 and 90 days).
Background: The combination of Lactobacillus fermentum and Lactobacillus delbrueckii (Lactobacillus LB) has proven to be effective and safe for the treatment of acute diarrhea in children. Also, a clinical trial in adult patients with chronic diarrhea, showed a reduction in the number of daily stools. However, the evidence is not enough regarding the efficacy and safety of Lactobacillus LB for treatment of patients with irritable bowel syndrome with predominance of diarrhea (IBS-D). Justification for this study: Lactobacillus LB could be a promising treatment for patients with IBS-D; nevertheless, the scientific evidence in this context is limited and it is not recent. Therefore, is necessary to explore the efficacy and safety of Lactobacillus LB in patients with IBS-D according to Rome IV criteria. Hypothesis: Lactobacillus LB is useful to decrease the frequency and improve the stools consistency of patients diagnosed with IBS-D by Rome IV criteria. Primary Outcome: To compare the treatment with Lactobacillus LB at two different doses: a) 20,000 million / day, vs. b) 10,000 million / day; and to determine if one of them is better than c) placebo, to decrease the frequency (weekly average of the number of stools/day) in patients diagnosed with IBS-D by Rome IV criteria. Design of the study: Clinical trial, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled. Keywords: irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea, Lactobacillus LB, treatment, efficacy, safety.
Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a benralizumab in patients with moderate to very severe COPD with a history of frequent COPD exacerbations and elevated peripheral blood eosinophils (≥300/μL). Eligible patients must have a history of ≥2 moderate and/or severe COPD exacerbations in the previous year despite receiving triple (ICS/LABA/LAMA) background therapy for at least 3 months and ICS-based dual inhaled treatment for the remainder of the year. Eligible patients must also have an elevated blood eosinophil count. The treatment period will be of variable duration and will continue until the last patient has the opportunity to complete a minimum of 56 weeks, at which point all patients will complete the study. The primary endpoint will be analyzed at Week 56.
Chronic non-infectious diseases have a bigger impact and a higher prevalence every day world-wide. Among them, diabetes stands out being the number one cause of death from degenerative chronic illness in Mexico. Diabetes not only affects quality of life, it can also lead to severe complications that have a great economic impact as well as a health impact on the patient and their family. Some of the complications include liver failure and hypertension. This whole problem can be dated back to an initial hyperglycemic state that when left untreated further develops into insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, metabolic syndrome and diabetes. The purpose of this study is to stop this chain reaction that starts with every hyperglycemic patient by adding thiamine pyrophosphate to the treatment plan of patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes that are poorly managed with metformin monotherapy. Thiamine pyrophosphate is a form of B1 vitamin that plays an important role as a coenzyme in multiple metabolic routes including the link between glycolysis and Krebs cycle, fatty acids metabolism and branched-chain amino acid metabolism. By doing so, these pathways improve their function and efficiency and thereby utilize plasma glucose. This in turn, decreases the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) which prevents the formation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, ultimately there is also an anti-oxidative mechanism involved that improves the inflammatory state the patient is living with. Our hypothesis is that by adding thiamine pyrophosphate to the treatment of patients taking metformin, there will be important progress regarding the inflammatory and metabolic control of patients with type 2 diabetes. The study will have a duration of approximately 4 months after the total sample is recruited. During this time, subjects will first be examined to determine their eligibility according to the pre-established criteria, in case of inclusion in the study they will sign an informed consent after reading it thoroughly and having answered all their questions. Baseline labs will be taken for every subject for future comparison. They will then be randomized into two parallel groups: an experimental group that will receive weekly infusions of saline infused with 1 gram of thiamine pyrophosphate or a placebo group that will also receive weekly infusions of pure saline. The patients as well as the doctors treating them will be blinded to the assignment of either group. This model will be carried out for a duration of 12 weeks total, during which every patient will continue their metformin treatment with their tolerated dose. There will be verification of treatment adherence by counting the metformin pills during every weekly visit. For the assessment of dependent variables there will be a visit every month with a blinded doctor. These visits will be for: physical and clinical evaluation, evaluation of adverse events, evaluation of treatment adherence and a heart rate variability study. The first and third months a questionnaire about lifestyle will be added to the visit schedule. On the third month, final lab tests will be performed. Finally, one month after completing the treatment, a final visit will be scheduled for a clinical and physical evaluation to make sure there are no problems.
