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.
A study of renal blood flow and renal oxygenation measured by magnetic resonance after a standardized fluid challenge in critically ill, resuscitated, patients with sepsis due to COVID-19 or other agents.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in Sweden. During investigation of suspected cancer transrectal ultrasound with needle biopsies from prostate leeds to diagnosis. The most common technique today is side-fire where the needle enter the prostate in angle from the probe. In end-fire technique the needle enters the prostate at tip of probe without angle. The difference in techniques side-fire vs. end-fire affects the possibility to reach the ventral and apical aspects of prostate. Today´s standard is at least five cores from each side of the prostate at first biopsy. If first sample is negative there will usually be another urological exam and a first re-biopsy. The study aim to compare these two methods in cancer detection. The investigators' hypothesis is that when using end-fire technique at first re-biopsy, investigators find more cancers compared to side-fire. Patients are prospectively randomized into two groups, both assessing 12 core biopsies according to study protocol. Primary endpoint is cancer detection. Data will be collected about patient age, PSA-level, prostate size, digital rectal exam, hypoechogenic zones and length of cancers.
The NOVEL Observational longiTudinal studY (NOVELTY) is an observational study of obstructive lung disease and is a multi-country, multi-centre, prospective, longitudinal cohort study which will recruit patients with a diagnosis, or suspected diagnosis, of asthma and/or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Patients will undergo clinical assessments and receive standard medical care as determined by their treating physician. Patients enrolled in NOVELTY will be followed up yearly by their treating physician for a total duration of three years. In addition, patients will be followed up remotely every 3 months. The NOVELTY study will collect data currently lacking to allow for multinational data collection to fill regional/local gaps and improve comparability across regions.
The main purposes of this study are to see if it is safe to use a new medication called vamorolone for more than two weeks in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), to see if vamorolone works for the treatment for DMD, and to see how any potential side effects compare to those seen in boys using steroids.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new medication called vamorolone is safe and well-tolerated by boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) ages ≥ 4 and < 7 years old.
The primary hypothesis that orthopaedic surgery induces a neuroinflammatory response within 48 hours after elective hip or knee surgery and that there is an association between exaggerated CNS inflammatory response or impaired inflammatory resolution and postoperative cognitive dysfunction within one week and at three months postoperatively.
The study will be a multicenter randomised controlled trial of the use of irrigation fluid of body temperature versus irrigation fluid of room temperature during burr hole evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of venetoclax monotherapy in participants with relapsed/refractory CLL with or without the 17p deletion or TP53 mutation, including those who have received prior treatment with a B-cell receptor inhibitor.
The study is a first step in establishing the safety and efficacy of the CytaCoat technology when applied to a medical device such as a nasal prong and the clinical data generated will serve as a basis for continuous studies in clinically significant settings such as the neonatal care units.
This study is conducted in Europe. The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of Xultophy® (insulin degludec/liraglutide) in an adult real-world population with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
