There are about 5161 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Norway. 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 purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bimekizumab in study participants with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS)
This project is aimed at patients with dizziness believed to be due to conditions in the balance organ in the inner ear (vestibular diseases). Dizziness can be bothersome and influence postural control negatively, and can cause secondary musculoskeletal disorders. Dizziness can also result in reduced work capacity. The purpose of the project is to strengthen the knowledge base regarding symptom burden, prognosis and treatment of prolonged dizziness. The hypothesis is that musculoskeletal pain at baseline is a prognostic factor for prolonged dizziness.
The purpose of this observational, multi-center prospective, post-market registry is to confirm real-world device safety and performance, to ensure the continued acceptability of identified risks, and detect emerging risks.
This study evaluates the safety of the probiotic compound IDOFORM TRAVEL® in patients with ulcerative colitis undergoing anti-TNF treatment with insufficient clinical response. Furthermore, the study aims to explore the composition of the bacteria of the gut as well as the immunological activity in patients with ulcerative colitis undergoing anti-TNF treatment, aiming to identify differences between groups of patients responding and not responding adequately to treatment. The project will explore whether probiotics have beneficial effects as adjuvant therapy in ulcerative colitis patients with insufficient response to anti-TNF treatment.
The purpose of this study is to switch from insulin to oral sulfonylurea in patients with apparent type 1 diabetes or maturity onset diabetes in the young that are insulin treated. The molecular cause will be DNA variants in the HNF1A, HNF4A, or HNF1B genes that are of unknown significance (VUS, class 3) or known to be pathogenic (class 4 and 5).
Two hundrad patients are randomized to either 90 g transplant, 90 g transplant twice with 1week interval into the distal small intestine via working channel of a gastroscope, or to 90 g transplant into the coecum of the colon via working channel of a colonoscope. The patients shall complete 5 questionnaires measuring symptoms, fatigue and quality of life and collect a feces sample at the baseline, and at 3, 6 and 12 months after FMT. Dysbiosis and fecal bacterial are determined by using 16S rRNA gene.
By using radiostereometric analysis (RSA) we will be able to study growth during and after temporary epiphysiodesis and with great accuracy be able to detect asymmetric growth following this procedure. By using the same method we also want to analyse patients with axial deviations operated with guided growth (tension band plating) to study the growth during and after the procedure and be able to set the correct timing for removal of the implant.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the pain-relieving effect of a well-characterized non-pharmacological treatment program, music-based caregiving (MBC), to patients in nursing homes with dementia and pain. Patients with dementia disease will be recruited from nursing homes in Trondheim and Oslo, and each ward at the nursing homes will be cluster randomized into intervention - or control wards. Then the health care personnel in the intervention wards will receive education in MBC and perform the intervention during eight weeks. The hypothesis is that this non-pharmacological intervention will reduce pain intensity and improve general activity, as well as reduce other symptoms in nursing home patients with dementia and pain compared to baseline.
The project "Nutrition and Medication management in home-dwelling older adults" consist of two separate studies witch are described in the same study protocol. This is the first study in this Project. The second study is described separately; Identification: 2017/12883-2 Malnutrition is common in older adults. The causes are many and include adverse drug effects. Loss of appetite, nausea, or dry mouth are adverse drug effects, which may contribute to malnutrition. Knowledge about possible relations between drug treatment and nutritional status is scarce. The objectives of the project is to describe nutritional status, drug treatment and the prevalence of potentially inappropriate medication in home-dwelling elderly receiving home care service in two Norwegian municipalities.
The project "Nutrition and Medication management in home-dwelling older adults" consist of two separate studies witch are described in the same study protocol. This is the second study in this Project. The first study (cross sectional) is described separately; Identification: 2017/12883-1 Undernutrition is common in older adults. The causes are many and include drug therapy. Drug side effects, as loss of appetite, nausea, or dry mouth, may contribute to malnutrition, impaired health and loss of function. In patients with malnutrition or at risk for malnutrition we will evaluate an intervention consisting of: - an "individual nutritional plan" with different measures aiming at improving nutritional status. - a systematic drug review.
