There are about 1545 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Serbia. 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.
This is a prospective randomized clinical trial designed to determine the effect of intraoperative dexmedetomidine administration on renal function after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
The main aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate cerebral blood oxygenation after 7-day administration of a creatine-guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) mixture in healthy adults before, during, and after a series of cognitive tests.
To verify the efficacy and tolerability of Activated Piroctone Olamine (Blue Cap Foam, label volume 100 ml) by CATALYSIS, S. L. Madrid, applied in the management of all types of dermatitis (atopic, seborrheic, eczema) in patients with significant manifestations of the disease in varying areas of the body of varying extent and to assess differences in individual tolerability and the final effect in a group of selected patients aged 3 to 18 years.
Analyzing changes in cerebral oximetry, transcranial Doppler and biomarkers of neuronal ischemic injury and blood-brain barrier integrity assessing the safety and efficacy of ischemic postconditioning in carotid surgery (IPCT).
The adverse effects of overnight fasting before surgery have been well-documented in the contemporary literature. Still, due to the possibility of pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents, many clinicians worldwide still employ this practice. On the other hand, the benefits of preoperative oral carbohydrate loading (OCHL) have been shown in various patient groups. Studies examining the usefulness of preoperative OCHL in aortic surgery are lacking. In particular, no randomized control trials have specifically examined the impact of preoperative OCHL on the postoperative course in patients undergoing open abdominal aortic surgery.
Postoperative cognitive deficit and its connection with surgery and general anesthesia were first mentioned in the literature in 1955 by Bradford. Cognitive disorders in the postoperative period are postoperative delirium (POD) and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). POD is an acute dysfunction in cognition, which did not exist preoperatively. Attention deficit disorder is the main symptom of POD and refers to the inability to direct, focus, maintain, or shift attention. Memory impairment, disorientation, or perceptual disturbances may also be present. Cognitive capacity changes in POD patients develop and fluctuate in the first few days after surgery. Unlike POD, there is no formal definition for POCD. Based on data from the existing literature, it is defined as newly diagnosed cognitive deterioration that occurs after surgery. The diagnosis of POCD should be based on pre- and postoperative screening with appropriate psychometric tests. Risk factors for the development of POCD include those related to the surgical procedure, anesthesia, or the patient himself. Compared to less invasive and shorter operations, there is a higher risk of developing POCD after major, invasive, and long-term operations. Additional risk factors are intraoperative (intraoperative bleeding, perioperative transfusion treatment, hypotension) and postoperative complications (respiratory insufficiency, pneumonia, atelectasis, bronchospasm, bronchopleural fistula, and pulmonary edema). Presurgical optimization (Prehabilitation) is a widespread concept that aims to improve the general condition of the patient or optimize comorbidities before major surgery. Prehabilitation is primarily focused on improving physical ability and nutritional status, but it is developing in the direction of a multimodal approach that includes measures to reduce stress and anxiety. Psychological factors are increasingly recognized as an essential element of prehabilitation and are often added to prehabilitation programs. Older patients, who meet the diagnostic criteria for frailty and are at risk of developing postoperative complications such as cognitive function disorders are increasingly undergoing lung resection. These complications can affect the outcome and speed of postoperative recovery.
Various signal molecules are detected in blood and tissues of patients with T2DM, that are important for the function of neural tissue in diabetic setting. Among them, specifically important are neuroprotective and neurotrophic growth factors such as nerve growth factor (NGF), glial cells - derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Furthermore, several other signal molecules are discovered to affect vascular tissues homeostasis in T2DM, including soluble alpha-klotho (s-Klotho), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Most of these molecules are also detected in saliva in various states and diseases of orofacial system, but data about their levels in saliva of T2DM patients are lacking, although neural and vascular diabetic complications are present in orofacial tissues and organs. Also, there is no data about presence and levels of s-Klotho in saliva of healthy or T2DM patients, although it was reported that this molecule exerts protective effect on the salivary glands tissue. Salivary opiorphin is recently discovered pentapeptide, primarily isolated from saliva. It acts as an inhibitor of the enzymes that perform degradation of endogenous antinociceptive molecules enkephalins, affecting nociceptive signal transduction. This may be of special importance since some intraoral complications of T2DM (e.g. burning mouth) may have underlying peripheral neural changes as a pathophysiological mechanism. Against this background, the aim of the study is to detect the presence and levels of mentioned signal molecules in saliva of patients with and without T2DM.
The clinical investigation was intended to investigate the efficacy, ocular tolerability and safety of Vizol S Lipid Balance, a new eye drops, emulsion developed by JADRAN - GALENSKI LABORATORIJ d.d., in patients with moderate to severe evaporative DED after a treatment for 30 days.
This study will look at how much CagriSema helps participants with type 2 diabetes lower their blood sugar and body weight. CagriSema is a new investigational medicine. Doctors may not yet prescribe CagriSema. CagriSema will be compared to a "dummy" medicine (also called "placebo") that has no effect on the body. Participants will get either CagriSema or "dummy" medicine. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. For each participant, the study will last for about one year.

Participant will get either CagriSema or "dummy" medicine and which treatment they get is decided by chance. Participant will take the study medicine together with their current diabetes medicine (once-daily insulin with or without metformin). For each participant, the study will last for about one year.
