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 investigate the effects of an extended behavioral intervention in exercise-based CR for improvement of physical capacity, adherence, psychological and physiological parameters, compared with usual care.
The aims of this study are to experimentally investigate and compare whether motivation variables can predict adherence to a prescribed assignment in face-to-face and online interventions using a psychotherapy analogue model. A total of 100 participants are included in this study and randomized to either a face-to-face or online intervention. Participants in both groups receive a psychoeducation session and are given an assignment for the subsequent week.
This is a cohort study in which patients who survive Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) during intensive care unit (ICU) admission are recalled at 3-6 months and renal function tests are performed. The purpose of the study is describe renal function in AKI survivors at follow-up. Additional aims are to determine how well admission values of renal function markers perform as predictors of renal function at follow-up and whether estimates of renal function at follow-up differ depending on which renal function marker is used.
The purpose of the trial was to evaluate efficacy and safety of QMF149 150/80 microgram o.d. delivered via Concept1 compared to MF 200 microgram o.d., delivered via Twisthaler® in terms of lung function and symptom control in poorly (ie inadequately) controlled asthma patients. This study was to assess contribution of LABA as an add-on therapy to low dose ICS monotherapy.
The adverse effects of air pollution on cardiovascular and respiratory health have been demonstrated in an extensive series of epidemiological, observational and experimental studies. In the current project the investigators aim to determine whether an acute exposure to diesel exhaust causes impacts on sympathetic nervous system activation in healthy volunteers.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels after 8 weeks of treatment in heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) participants aged of 8 to 17 years, with LDL-C >=130 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) (3.37 millimoles per litre [mmol/L]) on optimal stable daily dose of statin therapy +/- other lipid modifying therapies (LMTs) or a stable dose of non-statin LMTs in case of intolerance to statins for at least 4 weeks prior to the screening period. Secondary Objective: - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab. - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics profile of alirocumab. - To evaluate the effects of alirocumab on other lipid parameters.
We designed an explorative clinical study to assess the effectiveness of an enriched intense and task-oriented therapy program in enhancing motor recovery in patients with moderate to moderately severe hemiplegia after stroke. This enriched comprehensive task-specific therapy (ETT) program combines intensive and task-specific therapy with the sensory-motor, social, and cognitive stimulation inherent to environmental enrichment. We also investigated whether ETT improves gait, balance, upper and lower limb function, and confidence in task performance, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and reduces fatigue and depression.
The newly developed CBT for ADHD inattentive-type (ADHD-I) protocol is tested for feasibility and acceptability in a pilot study with a single group design. The study also evaluates measurements and recruiting possibilities, and effects of the intervention. Research hypotheses include: 1. There is a basis for recruiting ADHD-I patients for participation in an RCT at psychiatric outpatient units, 2. The measurements in the study are feasible and reasonable in regards to patient characteristics; that is, the patients are responding to the questionnaires as intended, 3. The CBT for ADHD-I intervention is feasible in terms of treatment completion, compliance to home assignments, and credibility and relevance, and is lacking of or involves a tolerable degree of adverse effects, and 4. The CBT for ADHD-I protocol reduces core symptoms of ADHD-I as well as symptoms of stress, depression, and anxiety, and improves quality of life.
A brief treatment program (MI/CBT) via face-to-face or via internet is tested in association with an outpatient addictions clinic.
It is well known that participation in sports activities as a youth has several health benefits, but at the same time, studies report that the risk is high to obtain injuries related to participation. There is, however, increasing evidence that many of these injuries can be prevented if necessary measures are taken. Prospective studies are therefore needed to be able to plan and carry out measures to prevent the occurrence of injuries. The overall aim of the project KLUB is to study the prevalence and incidence of injuries among athletics youths aged 12-15 years. A particular focus will be placed on identifying factors associated with injury occurrence.
