There are about 8563 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sweden. 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 this study is to study the effects of transthoracic electrical cardioversion for restoration of sinus rhythm in patients who present with recent onset atrial fibrillation, with regard to new silent cerebral thrombo-embolic lesions and cognitive function, as well as electrical and functional/structural reverse remodelling, and its effects on inflammatory changes / specific cardiac biomarkers, vasoactive peptides, coagulation activity, and active fibrinolysis.
Treatment with colloidal solutions has during long time been a cornerstone within intensive care. Lately, doubts have been raised about synthetic colloids, and the natural albumin has been used more and more. One of these solutions is the hyperoncotic "Albumin 20%". However there are still many aspects of the physiological effects of hyperoncotic albumin, that are not known. In this study physiological effects will be studied in burn patients and healthy subjects. The colloid osmotic pressure and the increase of the plasma volume will be measured in 15 healthy subjects and in 15 burn patients. The effect on the plasma volume will be studied using hemoglobin as a marker of dilution. Colloids osmotic pressure and albumin concentration will be measured directly and urin production will also be measured. Blood samples will be collected during 4 to 5 hours to achieve a profile over the changes.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if standard chemoimmunotherapy (FCR, BR) in frontline treatment of physically fit CLL patients without del17p or TP 53 mutation can be replaced by combinations of targeted drugs (Venetoclax, Ibrutinib) with anti-CD20-antibodies (Rituximab, Obinutuzumab), which may induce extremely long lasting remissions.
The purpose of this study is to determine the long-term safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of givosiran (ALN-AS1) in AIP patients who completed study ALN-AS1-001 (NCT02452372).
In this study a mistletoe preparation (Iscador Qu) is added to standard therapy in inoperable pancreatic cancer in order to evaluate effect on overall survival and health-related quality of life. Half of participants will take subcutaneous injections with mistletoe in addition to standard therapy (palliative chemotherapy or best supportive care); the other half will receive a placebo and standard therapy.
The primary purpose of this study was to assess the noninferiority of ravulizumab compared to eculizumab in adult participants with PNH who had never been treated with a complement inhibitor (treatment-naïve).
The overall aim of the project is to evaluate the Help Overcoming Pain Early model (which includes patient education, person-centered health dialogues and pain/stress management), which is an adolescent-centered school health prevention program when adolescents have chronic pain. This is an intervention that has the hypothesis to support students to manage their chronic pain. The primary outcome is self-efficacy. Secondary outcomes are self-rated health, quality of sleep, pain intensity and school attendance. The project aims to evaluate the intervention through qualitative and quantitative data collection by students and school nurses. The project has a hybrid design, which means that outcomes of the intervention and the evaluation of the implementation are taking place in the same data collection. The results of this project can be of great importance in the early detection of students with chronic pain and promote their confidence in their own ability to manage their symptoms.
A multicentre, Double-blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized Trial to Assess the Efficacy and Tolerability of Two Dosing Regimens of AllerT, a Combination of Contiguous Overlapping Peptides Derived from Bet v 1, in Adults with Birch Pollen Allergic Rhinitis/Rhinoconjunctivitis
Evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Rezum System for the treatment of BPH
Open label, 4 week randomized, cross-over study to compare the effect of a vegetarian diet to a conventional (meat containing) diet based on the Swedish average meat consumption on a range of parameters with prognostic importance for cardiovascular disease.The study will be conducted in patients diagnosed with ischemic heart disease. We hypothesize that patients will benefit from a vegetarian diet as assessed by multiple risk markers for this type of disease with a primary focus on changes in oxidized LDL cholesterol.
