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 the present pilot study is to evaluate the effect of antiperspirant to treat residual limb hyperhidrosis with the emphasis on the utility of the iodine-starch test to identify the location of the sweating.
The primary objective is to characterize the efficacy TEV-48574 in adult participants with IBD (moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or Crohn's Disease (CD)) as assessed by induction of clinical remission (UC) and endoscopic response (CD) at week 14. Secondary objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy and dose response of the 2 different dose regimens as assessed by multiple standard measures - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the 2 different dose regimens - To evaluate the immunogenicity of the 2 different dose regimens The study will consist of a screening period of up to 6 weeks (42 days), a 14-week treatment period, and a 4-week follow-up period.
Study designed to observe the usage patterns, efficacy and safety of REKOVELLE® in women naive to IVF and ICSI, undergoing their first Controlled Ovarian Stimulation (COS) treatment cycle with REKOVELLE® in routine clinical practice.
The diagnostic pathway for suspected prostate cancer relies greatly on radiological imaging. Establishment of magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) has the potential to significantly improve patient experience and outcomes. MRF is a novel and innovative approach to a long-standing challenge of recording and reconstructing MR image The aim is to conduct a clinical pilot study in which patients will be scanned using the newly refined MRF sequence in addition to the conventional scanning protocols.
This study is a 24-months, non-inferiority randomized, controlled trial with two parallel arms to determine if a new follow-up strategy for patients with RA is non-inferior in maintaining comprehensive disease control measured as simultaneous maintenance of structural, functional and clinical treatment target at 2-year follow-up compared to the conventional follow-up regimen with regular hospital visits.
Post-COVID-19 condition is frequently comprised of persistent cognitive sequela, including deficits in attention and executive functions (EFs). Goal Management Training (GMT) is a cognitive rehabilitation (CR) intervention for improving attention and EFs that has received empirical support in studies of other patient groups. The present study aims to determine the efficacy of GMT for improving everyday attention and EFs in adults who experience persistent cognitive deficits after COVID-19. The study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT), comparing the efficacy of GMT to a wait list control condition (WL), for improving persistent cognitive sequela in post-COVID-19 condition. The study aims to recruit 240 participants aged 18 to 65 years with a history of laboratory- or home-test confirmed, SARS-CoV-2 infection (> 3 months since infection) and perceived attentional and EF difficulties in daily life that have lasted for at least two months and that cannot be explained by an alternative diagnosis. Participants will be randomized to either group-based GMT (n = 120) or WL (n = 120). GMT will be internet-delivered to groups of six participants in six two-hour sessions delivered weekly (five weeks). The primary outcome will be the Metacognition Index of the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function - Adult Version, a self-report measure assessing everyday EF difficulties, at six months post-treatment. Secondary outcomes include performance-based neurocognitive measures and rating scales of cognition, emotional health, quality of life, and fatigue. Secondary aims include to explore to what extent potential early change predicts outcome, and to examine what characterize those who profit from GMT, in addition to describe the neurocognitive and emotional health in a Covid-19 sample. The investigators will also examine potential effects of GMT at 2- and 5-year follow-up.
Rape is a common cause of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among women, as around 30-50% will develop PTSD in the aftermath of rape. A modified protocol based on Prolonged Exposure Therapy (mPE), has been developed, consisting of three to five once or twice weekly 60 minutes sessions, and studies indicate that if implemented early after rape, mPE may prevent the development of PTSD. The aim of the study is to conduct a multi-site (4 Sexual assault care centers in Norway) randomized control trial (RCT) in which patients are recruited early after rape, and randomized to intervention (mPE) or treatment as usual (TAU).
Lipedema is a fat disorder causing accumulation of subcutaneous adipose tissue particularly in arms and legs, and predominantly affects women. Lipedema likely contributes to an array of other pathologies, including obesity, inflammatory bowel disease, and neurological disorders. Lipedema tissue is often very painful and can severely impair mobility. The condition can also increase the incidence of depression, anxiety, or eating disorders. There seems to be a general impression that lipedema tissue is difficult to reduce by diet, exercise, or bariatric surgery. However, only a few studies have actually explored the effects of exercise training on lipedema. Despite the lack of knowledge, the existing guidelines for lipidemia treatment promote a healthy lifestyle with individually adjusted weight control measures, including physical activity. In general, exercise is known to have an important effect on adipose tissue. Excess adipose tissue causes macrophage infiltration into the adipose tissue leading to continuous low systemic inflammation. This would suggest that there is a systemic inflammatory response in lipedema patients. Increasing IL-6 levels with exercise can decrease the level of proinflammatory TNFalpha synthesized from adipocytes and therefore lead to an anti-inflammatory effect by increasing IL-10 and IL-1ra levels. IL-6 also stimulates fat oxidation by increasing lipolysis. For these reasons, adding an appropriate exercise program to standard treatment might provide additional benefits for lipedema patients. The investigators aim to determine the therapeutic potential of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on pain, quality of life, body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness and circulating biomarkers in women with lipedema.
The aim of this trial is to investigate whether regular endurance exercise during the lactation period will influence breastmilk composition among individuals with overweight/obesity, and secondarily to assess if such changes impact the growth and health of the infants.
The objectives of this study are: Evaluation of ultra-low iodine load CTA protocols of the aorta and lower extremities. To investigate whether dual-layer in combination with with virtual monoenergetic imaging (VMI) allows for reduction of contrast medium (CM) in CTA of the aorta and lower limbs i with sustained objective and subjective image quality parameters.
