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.
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effect of high-intensity training (HIT) in older sedentary people. Seventy older people, aged 65 and over, will be randomized to HIT or moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT). HIT sessions will consist of 10 repeated 6-seconds regulated high intensity cycling sprints against an individualized load. MICT (control group) sessions will consist of aerobic training regulated against an individualized load set to reach a moderate submaximal exercise intensity. Both groups will be performed twice weekly for 12 weeks. The study will evaluate the effects on 1) Cardiovascular function, 2) Brain health, 3) Muscular function, 4) Psychological health, 5) Physical activity, 6) Metabolic health, and 7) Examine the feasibility (attendance, achieved intensity, adverse events) as well as the experiences of HIT. Most outcomes will be assessed at baseline, 3 months (directly after intervention period), and 9 months by blinded assessors.
This study is prospective, open and randomized concerning the value of an Internet-based educational program for patients with atrial fibrillation compared to "care as usual".
Here we will investigate the effect of sulforaphane, provided as a broccoli sprout extract (BSE) on blood glucose in pre-diabetic individuals without metformin treatment. This will address whether BSE could be used to improve glucose control in drug-naïve pre-diabetic individuals. The participants will receive BSE or placebo in a randomized double-blind parallel arm study. The participants will take their study compound once daily over 12 weeks. The primary study variable is fasting glucose.
This is an open-label, single-armed, multi-center study to evaluate clinical performance, tolerability, and safety of Gedea Pessary in 24 adult women with confirmed BV according to fulfillment of at least 3 of the 4 Amsel criteria. On Day 0, patients will have gynecological examination, vaginal samples taken, and will receive the investigational product to be self-administered. Patients will be examined after 7 days with respect to 3 Amsel criteria (the criterion: "pH of vaginal fluid above 4.5" is only included at study inclusion for diagnosis), and if not cured, will receive prolonged treatment for one additional week. Patients will be followed-up by telephone up to 29 days after last treatment. Vaginal samples will be used for confirming diagnosis and microbiome analyzes. Patient questionnaires will be used for assessing BV symptoms, usability, and adverse events (AEs).
This is an open-label, single-armed, multi-center study to evaluate clinical performance, tolerability, and safety of Gedea Pessary in 24 adult women with VVC. On Day 0, patients will have gynecological examination, vaginal samples taken, and will receive the investigational product to be self-administered. Patients will be examined after 7 days with respect to VVC signs and symptoms and if not cured, will receive prolonged treatment for one additional week. Patients will be followed-up by telephone up to 29 days after last treatment. Vaginal samples will be used for confirming diagnosis and microbiome analyzes. Patient questionnaires will be used for assessing VVC symptoms, usability, and adverse events (AEs).
The scientific basis for dietary recommendations in type 1 diabetes is almost lacking, with the current recommendations being based on type 2 diabetes studies. Therefore the overall purpose of this study is to improve the current evidence for dietary recommendations to people with type 1 diabetes. Study aim: To compare how a strictly low carbohydrate diet, a moderately low carbohydrate diet and a traditional diabetes diet (with higher amounts of carbohydrates) affect insulin requirements and metabolic control in individuals with type 1 diabetes. Carbohydrate intake is 50-60% of the total energy intake in the traditional diabetes diet, 30-40% in the moderately low carbohydrate diet and 15-20% in the strictly low carbohydrate diet with a minimum of 50 g carbohydrates/day. A diet with less than 50 g carbohydrates/day is usually called very low carbohydrate diet or ketogenic and will not be tested in this study. Those who wish to participate and meet the inclusion criteria (and none of the exclusion criteria) will be randomized to one of the three diets. The duration of the intervention is 6 months after which the participants will be able to choose their own diet for another 6 months. The main study visits are at baseline (screening and study start), 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. Shorter visits will be at 3 and 6 weeks. The participants will meet with a study nurse, dietitian and doctor. They will attend two carbohydrate counting courses before the start of the intervention in order to be able to match their insulin to the amount carbohydrates they eat. Participants will receive written materials about their diets with menus and recipes for better adherence to the diet. The primary endpoint is the change in insulin requirements within and between groups (for secondary endpoints please see relevant section). For assessing the different endpoints the participants will provide blood, urine and feces samples for lab analyses as well as register their insulin use, blood glucose, diet, physical activity and any blood ketones or hypoglycemia electronically or in written forms. Continuous/flash glucose monitoring (CGM/FGM) will be also used. Dietary assessment and adherence will be based on 3-4 day food diaries before every scheduled study visit.
This research study is designed to investigate the use of a simple cognitive task (a memory cue and 10 minute time gap, followed by playing the computer game "Tetris") for decreasing the number of intrusive memories of trauma among young refugees and asylum seekers. The design is a single case experimental AB design with optional replication (ABAB). Participants will aim to complete a no-intervention phase ('A': baseline phase) of one week followed by a one-week intervention phase ('B'), including a one-session intervention with a researcher comprising the simple cognitive task, followed by instructions to continue to use the technique self-guided in the subsequent week. Follow ups are conducted after each week to monitor the occurrence of intrusive memories of trauma in a pen-and-paper diary. It is predicted that participants will report fewer intrusive memories during the intervention phase than during the preceding baseline phase.
A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of a 20-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Pneumococcal Vaccine-Naïve Adults
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of treatment with omecamtiv mecarbil compared with placebo on exercise capacity as determined by cardiopulmonary exercise testing following 20 weeks of treatment with omecamtiv mecarbil or placebo
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vutrisiran (ALN-TTRSC02) in participants with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR amyloidosis). Participants will receive vutrisiran subcutaneous (SC) injection once every 3 months (q3M) or the reference comparator patisiran intravenous (IV) injection once every 3 weeks (q3w) during the 18 month Treatment Period. This study will use the placebo arm of the APOLLO study (NCT01960348) as an external comparator for the primary and most other efficacy endpoints during the 18 Month Treatment Period. Following the 18 Month Treatment Period, all participants will be randomized to receive vutrisiran SC injection once every 6 months (q6M) or q3M in the Randomized Treatment Extension (RTE) Period.
