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 study will prospectively collect data from patients with Covid-19 admitted to the Västerås Intensive Care Unit, Västerås Hospital. Demographic, clinical, radiographic and laboratory characteristics will be recorded. Analysis of data to identify predictors of disease severity, mortality and treatment response.
The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of an internet-delivered Adolescent Community Reinforcement Approach (I-A-CRA) with therapist support for young adults (aged 18-24 years) with problematic alcohol use and their caregiver/significant other. Secondary aims include investigating the role of comorbid emotional symptoms, emotion regulation and prosocial behavior in treatment outcomes for the young adults. In a randomized controlled pilot trial, participants (n = 60 young adults as well as an optional accompanying caregiver/significant other) will be recruited from the community through advertisements as well as through clinic referrals in Stockholm, Sweden. Eligible participants will be randomized either to the 10-week I-A-CRA treatment or to an active control group (receiving psychoeducation about alcohol use over the same time frame). In both conditions an optionally accompanying caregiver/significant other will receive a support program in conjunction with the young adult's treatment. Participating young adults will be evaluated with regards to their alcohol use, psychiatric symptoms, emotion regulation, and prosocial behavior at pre-treatment, weekly during treatment, post-treatment, and at a 3-month follow-up. The primary outcome will be feasibility (measured as number of treatment completers; i.e., having completed 5 out of 8 treatment modules), and acceptability (measured by patient satisfaction). Secondary outcomes will include pre- and post-treatment self-rated binge drinking episodes, levels of depression, anxiety and stress, emotion dysregulation, and prosocial behavior. Self-reports regarding stress, emotion dysregulation, and prosocial behavior will be complemented by behavioral measures (computerized tasks).
Randomized open label clinical trial carried out at study centers in Sweden, including Karolinska University Hospital, S:t Göran Hospital, Danderyd Hospital and Västmanlands Hospital. Patients with COVID-19 who are hospitalized with oxygen therapy are eligible for inclusion. Subjects are randomized to 14 days of inhalation with ciclesonide 360 µg twice daily or to standard of care. Primary outcome is duration of received supplemental oxygen therapy. Key secondary outcome is a composite outcome of death and received invasive mechanical ventilation within 30 days.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological condition, which affects the brain. PD gets worse over time, but how quickly it progresses varies a lot from person to person. Some symptoms of PD are tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. The purpose of this study is to continue testing whether ABBV-951 is safe, effective, and tolerable in participants with Parkinson's disease after completion of the parent study M15-741. ABBV-951 is an investigational (unapproved) drug containing levodopa phosphate/carbidopa phosphate (LDP/CDP) given as infusion under the skin for the treatment of Parkinson's Disease. Participants who have successfully completed M15-741 study will immediately enter this study's treatment period to continue receiving ABBV-951. Adult participants with advanced PD will be enrolled. Approximately 130 adult participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 65 sites worldwide. Participants will receive continuous subcutaneous infusion (CSCI) of ABBV-951 for 24 hours daily during the Primary Treatment Period and during the optional Extended Treatment Period. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular clinic visits and have remote assessments completed via phone calls during the course of the study. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.
The purpose of this study is to investigate how RA affect the brain structures in RA-patients and if anti-inflammatory treatment that target TNF-α or JAK OR physical training of hands has positive impact on neuropsychiatric symptoms and morphological changes in the brain caused by the disease. The goal of this research project is to improve the knowledge of morphological changes in brain developed in connection to RA and to identify clinical and serological markers to predict development of those changes and finally, to investigate if anti-rheumatic interventions counteract destructive processes in the central nervous system (CNS) and improve the patient's health with respect to functionality, pain experience and psychological well-being.
This is a parallel-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with a screening phase that includes a 28-day run-in phase to establish baseline seizure frequency, followed by a 24-week, randomized, placebo-controlled phase. After completion of the randomized, placebo-controlled phase, participants may enter a 48-week, long-term, extension phase during which they will receive open-label treatment with vatiquinone.
The purpose of this research is to investigate the impacts of applying eye-gaze assistive technology (AT) in children and youth with severe disabilities and complex needs in Taiwan, where eye-gaze AT has not been researched for children yet.
Brief summary: The objective of this study is to compare two different ablation strategies in participants with persistent atrial fibrillation and fibrotic areas in the left atrium. The participant will be randomized to pulmonary vein isolation or pulmonary vein isolation plus ablation of fibrotic areas.
The article presents a protocol of a cross-sectional study of mental health of pregnant women in relation to the COVID 19 pandemic. The primary aim is to compare differences in anxiety and depression scores of pregnant women between countries affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The secondary aim is to assess demographic, economic, and social aspects affecting maternal anxiety and depression scores among pregnant women worldwide in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, investigators will be able to compare differences in perception of the different aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic (social distancing, restrictions related to delivery) between countries and according to the epidemic status (number of infected patients, number of reported deaths). The comparisons will also be done according to COVID-19 status of the participants.
The overall purpose of this study is to support the development of an oral formulation of TBPM-PI-HBr by assessing the potential ecological effects of tebipenem on the normal intestinal microbiota as compared to the effects of oral amoxicillin-clavulanate.
