There are about 2077 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Malaysia. 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 goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of Sensory-based intervention modules on children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The main questions this study aims to answer is How do children with ASD respond to Sensory-based intervention (SBI) in terms of their sensory processing, social skills, and play? Thus, the objective of this study is to determine the significant differences in sensory processing, social skills, and play in children with ASD before and after receiving the Sensory-based intervention (SBI) module in the intervention and control groups. Participants in this study are children with ASD, aged between 4-6 years, who attend Pusat PERMATA Kurnia, a specialized school for ASD. The children will undergo assessments using the Sensory Profile 2 and Sensory Processing Measurement 2 for sensory processing, the Social Responsiveness Scale for social skills, and Knox Preschool Play Scale to measure play. Researchers will compare two groups: one receiving Sensory-Based Interventions (SBI) modules with usual school activities (intervention group), and the other receiving only usual school activities (control group). We aim to see if the SBI module makes a significant difference in sensory processing, social skills, and play in children with ASD.
One of the common complications of diabetes mellitus (DM) is Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU), which can subsequently lead to infections, gangrene, amputation or even death, if necessary care is not taken to curb with the condition. Despite the rapid advancements in the medical industry, diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is considered as a major factor of morbidity and a leading cause of hospitalizations among diabetic patients. The risk of ulcer progression that may ultimately lead to amputation is elevated upon the development of DFU. It is estimated that DFU contributes approximately 50-70% of all lower limb amputations. In addition to rendering emotional and physical distress, DFU is also responsible for causing productivity and financial losses that lower the quality of life. The economic burden of the patients is further aggravated by the medical expenditure involved in the healing of DFU and/or lower extremity amputation. This study focuses on usage of a modern primary wound dressing in managing diabetic foot ulcer. The primary dressing used in this study is an activated carbon cloth dressing, which is applied directly to the wound bed and the "holes" in the net give access to the activated carbon which is made up of millions of micropores and within the walls of these micro pores, there is presence of electrostatic forces known as Van der Waals forces, which helps to trap and kill microorganisms such as MRSA and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In addition, the dressings can regulate matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) which are responsible for prolonged inflammation in chronic wounds like diabetic foot ulcers, and able to promote fibroblast migration and accelerate granulation tissue growth via its conductivity.
An Open-label Extension Study to Evaluate Long-term Efficacy and Safety of Odevixibat (A4250) in Children with Biliary Atresia
It is a parallel cluster randomised controlled trial designed to assess the effectiveness of an online life skills education in reducing depression, anxiety, and stress and improving self-efficacy and coping skills among Arabic secondary school students at Arabic schools in Klang Valley in Malaysia.
The rationale of the ROSY-D study is to continue to provide study treatment for patients who have participated in a parent study with Durvalumab and who are continuing to derive clinical benefit from treatment at the end of such studies, as judged by the Investigator.
The research aims to elucidate a specially-designed personalized diet based on Traditional Asian Diet and its efficacy in increasing the gut colonization of Prevotella sp. and butyrate levels in pregnant mothers and the benefits in reducing infant's food allergy development.
This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled phase III clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine, Inactivated (Vero Cell) in adults aged 18 years and above after 2-dose schedule.
Postprandial hyperglycemia is a hallmark feature of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2D), and persistent elevated glycemic level has shown to be strongly associated with oxidative stress, and a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). In Malaysia, the glycemic control is poor and patients with T2D commonly experiencing persistent postprandial hyperglycemia (12.7 mmol/L). A low glycemic index (GI) meal has been reported to reduce postprandial glycemia and insulin concentration in patients with T2D. Metabolomics technique can be used to identify comprehensive metabolites in response to different diet. Till date, local scientific data documented on the role and interaction between diet and metabolites for the Malaysian patients with T2D is unknown. This study is to determine the postprandial metabolomic effect of low and high GI meals in patients with T2D using the NMR-based metabolomics approach. Then, patients with T2D will be assigned for 14 days of chronic feeding trial intervention. This study will help to establish local baseline data and understand the impact of meal-patterns on metabolic and metabolite at postprandial responses.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacies of an online mindfulness-based intervention for emerging adults with ADHD in Malaysia. The investigators hypothesized that online mindfulness-based intervention may improve ADHD symptoms and executive functions of emerging adults with ADHD.
Severe pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) is a life-threatening and frequent problem experienced by thousands of children each year. Little evidence supports current supportive practices during their critical illness. The overall objective of this study is to identify the best positional and/or ventilation practice that leads to improved patient outcomes in these critically ill children. We hypothesize that children with high moderate-severe PARDS treated with either prone positioning or high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) will demonstrate more days off the ventilator when compared to children treated with supine positioning or conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV).
