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.
Fibromyalgia is a disease that significantly decreases the quality of life of people who suffer from it, has great repercussions at the socio-economic level due to the incapacity it produces. It is characterized by generalized pain, fatigue, sleep disorders, psychological stress and mental alterations, besides presenting painful points in different parts of the body to physical examination. Having few effective treatments is necessary to explore new options in their management to improve the general conditions of the patient. Previous studies have shown that patients with fibromyalgia have had low levels of vitamin D in the blood, a favorable response from post-vitamin D supplementation has been seen. This vitamin has been associated with pain pathways and with increased The perception of the same when it is in smaller amount. We will select patients with Fibromyalgia diagnosis from the external consultation of Rheumatology of the University Hospital "Dr. José Eleuterio González "of the UANL, over 18 years old who have not been previously supplemented with vitamin D, will initially be measured in blood of vitamin D, in addition to calcium as a safety measure, we will have a group that will only receive placebo and Another that will be supplemented with 50 thousand units weekly for 12 weeks, we will apply a questionnaire that measures pain scale and another one that measures the impact of the disease in the daily life of the patient, this will be done in a beginning and at the end of the 12 weeks .
This study compares two oral medications (tranexamic acid and aminocaproic acid) as hemostatic agent administered in patients undergoing total knee replacement.
The study aims to describe the use of Nasal High Flow (NHF) in the intensive care units of participating centers in Iberoamerica. It will describe the indications for the use, the clinical outcome of patients , and the therapeutic failure of NHF therapy in patients staying in an intensive care unit in the participant centers in Iberoamerica.
Prevalence of uro-genital infections during pregnancy move between 7% to 12% in developed countries, meanwhile in developing countries this figure moved between 14% and until 55%, such is the case of Mexico. Meanwhile use of antibiotics for 3 to 7 days had established as a standard of care, the use of non-antibiotic therapy, such as cranberry powder or probiotics for prevention/treatment of this conditions is scarce. Randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of probiotic vs. antibiotics to treat pregnant women with uncomplicated cystitis or asymptomatic bacteriuria
Study of Romiplostim for Chemotherapy-induced Thrombocytopenia in Adult Subjects with Gastrointestinal, Pancreatic, or Colorectal Cancer
Patients intubated due to acute respiratory failure have a high risk of infectious complications, airway injuries and multiple organic failure, so performing a successful extubation from mechanical ventilation is key. Between 10 and 20% of patients develop extubation failure, which is related to an increased in-hospital death rate, infections, higher costs and longer hospital stays. High-flow nasal oxygen therapy delivers heated, humidified air at flows up to 60L/min, and an oxygen concentration close to 100%, providing a fresh air reservoir at the naseo-pharyngeal level, evening out the peak inspiratory flow rate of the patient, improving air conductance, promoting secretion management, increasing end-expiratory lung volume, and applying a positive end-expiratory pressure. Such effects result in decreased breathing work, dyspnea relief, improved use tolerance, increased oxygenation, and lower fraction of inspired oxygen in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure. High-flow oxygen therapy has recently been described to decrease extubation failure in a group of patients classified with low failure risk, in comparison to Venturi mask, and it was not inferior to non-invasive mechanical ventilation in high risk patients. However, it is worth pointing out that a large percentage of the patients included in such studies did not develop acute respiratory failure primarily. Given the beneficial effects described above, the investigators hypothesize that high-flow nasal oxygen therapy decreases the risk of extubation failure in a group of patients that required invasive mechanical ventilation due to primary acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of CaPre 4 g daily, compared to placebo, in lowering fasting TG levels in subjects with fasting TG levels ≥500 mg/dL and ≤1500 mg/dL (≥5.7 mmol/L and ≤17.0 mmol/L) after 12 weeks of treatment. Approximately 615 subjects will be screened to obtain 245 randomized subjects following a treatment allocation ratio of 2.5:1 (CaPre:placebo).
This study compares the extubation time between total intravenous anesthesia guided by Bispectral Index with spinal anesthesia with minimal opioid dose for cardiac surgery.
RCT to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 to significantly reduce the duration of crying time and fussines in infants from 15days to 4 months of age with colic, feed with human milk (30% sample) or infant formula (70%)
The purpose of this study is to show that BGB-A317 will improve overall survival in participants with Stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer when compared to docetaxel in second or third-line treatment setting.
