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 aim of this study is to investigate the potential effect of a marine protein hydrolysate (MPH) supplement before a meal on postprandial glucose tolerance in healthy subjects, to achieve more knowledge on this presumed beneficial, blood glucose lowering effect
This study aims to compare the treatment results of HIFU and Radical prostatectomy.
The purpose of this trial is to assess patient important benefits and harms of IV fluid restriction vs. standard care fluid therapy in patients with septic shock.
In a randomized controlled crossover study design, ultrasound guided lumbar plexus blocks will be performed with and without the aid of a needle tip tracking (NTT) system. Specialists in anaesthesiology with average experience in ultrasound guided peripheral nerve block (PNB) techniques will perform the blocks. 27 volunteers will be included. The primary objective is to investigate the effect of the NTT system on performance time, as a measure for improved block performance. Secondary objectives are the effects of the NTT system on dexterity, peripheral nerve block characteristics, subjective experience, and peripheral block performance.
About 5000 total knee arthroplasties (TKA) are performed annually in Norway. Pain and reduced physical function is present in patients operated with TKA up to a year after surgery and about one of five patients are not satisfied with the outcome from TKA surgery. The use of tourniquet during surgery may also have impact on pain and physical function. Whether TKA surgery should be performed with or without the use of tourniquet, is a much-debated issue in orthopedic surgery today, and there is still no consensus in this field. This study will investigate early muscle strength and power recovery, neuromuscular recordings, neuronal changes and patient reported outcome measures after surgery with tourniquet versus not tourniquet.The findings in this study are expected to have implications for rehabilitation and the outcome of the TKA surgery.
Urology departments from all over the world are invited to join the Global Prevalence Study on Infections in Urology (GPIU-study) and the GPIU Prostate Biopsy Side Study. The GPIU study is taking part annually in November since 2003. European urologists were the first group of specialist to register hospital acquired infections on an international level. More than 20.000 patients have been screened and more than 2000 patients are currently listed in this database. Why? Infectious complications after urological procedures, such as prostate biopsy and increasing antimicrobial resistance are posing significant threats to modern urology The GPIU-study is a combined quality improvement initiative and a scientific study. Once the participating departments have filled in the report forms they will get access to statistics showing the accumulated results for all participating hospitals. The participants can anonymously compare their own results with hospitals from all over the World. The GPIU-study application has been designed as an instrument to ongoing follow-up of the development of important factors related to infection on international, national and local levels. Take responsibility for the future of urology - join the GPIU-studies! http://gpiu.esiu.org Prof. Dr. Florian M.E.

The purpose of this study is to investigate if playing a newly developed videogame that requires physical activity (e.g. exergame), leads to increased physical activity and health benefits in children and adolescents who do not regularly participate in endurance training. Health benefits will be expressed in physical fitness (maximal oxygen consumption), blood markers of a healthy heart, body composition and objectively measured physical activity. Gaming frequency of the participants will be registered throughout the 24 week intervention period.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of three CFZ533 dose regimens in kidney transplant recipients. This study will allow assessment of the ability of CFZ533 to replace Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) in terms of anti-rejection efficacy, while providing better renal function with a better safety and tolerability profile. Results of this study will be used to inform the CFZ533 dose and regimen selection for investigation in later phases of clinical development.
Iron deficiency is prevalent in heart transplant recipients, and may be associated with reduced functional capacity. The IronIC trial is designed to assess the effect of intravenous iron isomaltoside on exercise capacity, muscle strength, cognition and quality of life in iron-deficient heart transplant recipients
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of investigational drug relatlimab plus nivolumab in combination with chemotherapy in participants with unresectable, untreated, locally advanced or metastatic gastric or GEJ cancer.
