There are about 3152 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Portugal. 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 observational study is to evaluate the outcome of a Poly-ether-ether-ketone - used in partial implant-supported rehabilitations after one year of follow-up. The main question it aims to answer is: - What is the survival outcome of partial implant-supported prosthesis using Poly-ether-ether-ketone? The participants already rehabilitated with dental implants will receive a definitive 3 unit prosthesis incorporating Poly-ether-ehter-ketone.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the outcome of a Poly-ether-ether-ketone - acrylic resin removable partial denture used in partial edentulous rehabilitation after one year of follow-up. The main question it aims to answer is: - What is the survival outcome of partial rehabilitations using Poly-ether-ether-ketone-acrylic resin removable partial dentures? The participants will receive a definitive removable partial denture incorporating Poly-ether-ehter-ketone.
The goal of this interventional study is investigating the effect of the daily consumption of olive leaves tea on glycemic control of individuals diagnosed with pre-diabetes. The hypothesis of this study is that the integration of olive leaf tea on daily food consumption will favors glycemic control and ameliorate insulin resistance in individuals with pre-diabetes.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the validity of the Microbial- ID test to aid in diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in terms of sensitivity and specificity.
The present work proposes to find if a bio-active composite in the hemolymph or plasma of the freshwater bivalve Anodonta cygnea is able to offer immunity and specificity for meliorating the major symptoms in human SARS and COVID-19 lineage infection. The Methodology concerns in silico procedures using organic fluids from 54 bivalves (in very specific conditions) to evaluate their therapeutic effects in 6 voluntary SARS and COVID-19 infected persons with an integrative diagnosis by a computational Mora®Nova apparatus to access the basal and experimental human physiological parameters.
Priapism is a urological emergency that is defined as a prolonged penile erection lasting more than 4 h, remaining despite orgasm and in the absence of sexual stimulation. There are three sub-types of priapism: Ischaemic, non- ischaemic and stuttering. The most common (95% cases) of these is ischaemic priapism (IP), which represents a compartment syndrome of the corpus cavernosa with minimal or no arterial flow into the penis. It causes time-dependent smooth muscle damage that can result in significant morbidity (including, permanent erectile dysfunction (ED), penile shortening, penile curvature and loss of girth) with- out prompt intervention. Unlike ischemic priapism, non-ischemic priapism is not a urologic emergency, both the American Urological Association (AUA) and the European Association of Urology (EAU) recommend conservative, non-operative, management for the treatment of NIP. Spontaneous resolution has been documented to occur in 62% of patients [1]. Despite the very high burden of priapism and its time-dependent adverse effect on erectile function, few studies have comprehensively defined the clinical epidemiology of this complication nor have any compared sexual dysfunction in men with SCD with that in those without it. Evidence-based treatment strategies for priapism are currently lacking, especially in terms of sexual function. However, despite the various publications in the literature, even today the published studies show considerable bias, in terms of sample size, evaluation of reproducible outcomes, use of internationally validated questionnaires, well-defined follow-up evaluation, as well as the evaluation of outcome after medical or surgical treatment. For this reason, the purpose of this international register is precisely to shed light on what may be the responses to medical surgical treatment in patients with priapism, but in particular to set up a rational data collection that has solid scientific bases.
The purpose of this study is to collect long-term safety and tolerability data for aficamten (CK-3773274)
Early fetal growth restriction (FGR) is associated with considerable fetal and neonatal morbimortality (Miller et al. 2008, Nardozza et al. 2017). Placental thrombosis, infarcts and hypercoagulability are frequently seen in these pregnancies, suggesting a role for the activation of the coagulation cascade in the genesis of FGR. Patients will be randomized for low-molecular weight heparin or standard of care, and the outcomes of both arms (gestational age at delivery, gestational and fetal morbidity) will be compared.
This study will collect information on side effects and how well Esperoct® (turoctocog alfa pegol (N8-GP)) works during long-term treatment (prophylaxis) in males with haemophilia A. Participants in this study will get the same treatment as they would normally get, if they were not participating in the study. All visits at the clinic are done in the same way as participants are used to, when visiting their doctor. During visits at the clinic participants might be asked for some relevant tests if considered useful by the study doctor. During the visits the study doctor might ask if participants had any side effects since the last study visit. Participants will be asked to note down in their own diary the number of bleeds and how these were treated, as well as their regular prophylaxis. Participation in the study will last for about 5-7 years, depending on when participants join the study. Participants are free to leave the study at any time and for any reason. This will not affect their current and future medical care.
