There are about 8503 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.
Adult IBS patients with symptoms refractory to standard medical treatment received nurse-administered, gut-directed hypnotherapy. The primary outcome measure was change in gastro-intestinal symptom severity.
39 healthy subjects without medication (except oral contraceptives) aged 20-70 years are recruited via advertisements or through telephone contacts with individuals that had previously participated in population-based cohort studies in Malmö. All subjects are exposed to three different intervention procedures; water and coffee loads (acutely and chronically), or no change from usual fluid intake (as a time-control), respectively in randomized order. The daily intake of coffee or water will amount to 3 L of water and 1 L of coffee, respectively for one week each. The three interventions (water, coffee and control), are separated by three weeks of normal fluid intake as a wash-out period. By testing if simple life style interventions, i.e., increased water or coffee intake, may affect vasopressin secretion, evaluated as copeptin, we will increase the knowledge as to whether such life style induced changes of copeptin may in turn lead to effects on glucose tolerance as well as on other cardiometabolic risk factors previously shown to be associated with high copeptin level. Thus, the study will lead to further understanding about vasopressin and copeptin release and how life style manipulation of the vasopressin system may influence glucose metabolism and other cardiometabolic risk factors in healthy individuals.
This observational study aims to investigate the presence of HPV DNA in semen samples from men undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment. It focuses on understanding the impact of HPV on male fertility and embryo development following IVF/ICSI. The primary goal is to determine the prevalence of HPV-positive (HPV+) semen samples among men seeking infertility treatment with IVF/ICSI. Additionally, the study aims to compare semen characteristics between HPV-positive and HPV-negative (HPV-) samples and assess the embryological outcomes after IVF/ICSI in these two groups. Participants in this study will include men receiving IVF/ICSI treatment and providing fresh ejaculated sperm at Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg, Sweden, over one year. Those undergoing treatments with surgically extracted sperm, sperm freezing for fertility preservation, or planning treatments involving preimplantation genetic testing or egg donation will be excluded. The study will involve analyzing HPV DNA in semen samples through PCR, utilizing the most effective method for HPV DNA detection previously identified in a pilot study. Sperm samples collected during infertility investigations and IVF/ICSI treatments will undergo gradient centrifugation to separate different components. A portion of the sperm sample will be preserved for PCR analysis to detect HPV DNA, while the rest will be used for IVF/ICSI procedures. The results from the PCR analyses will be correlated with semen characteristics and the outcomes of IVF/ICSI treatment. Furthermore, the samples will be stored for potential future analyses related to HPV-related biomarkers for up to 5 years at Biobank.
In this randomized controlled trial, two different plant polar lipids are investigated with respect to their potential to affect acute and second meal glucose tolerance and appetite sensations. The effects are compared with a common non-polar commercial oil. The lipids are consumed spread on a white wheat bread. A white wheat bread without added lipids is included as a control product. The test products are consumed at breakfast, and test variables are investigated in the postprandial period after the test breakfast and also after a second meal standard lunch.
This is a single-center study retrospectively evaluating a local clinical routine to administer norepinephrine in midline catheters, with regard to complications and patient outcomes
The aim of this trial is to assess the potential key drug-drug interactions with EP395 in the clinical setting.
A double-blinded, controlled study was conducted at one county hospital in Sweden. Patients were randomly assigned, skin samples were collected at four times; baseline, preoperative, after intervention and after 48 hours. Bacterial colonization were assessed.
This is an open user study to evaluate D005 vagnial mousse with regards to user-friendliness, and measure time from start of treatment to symptom relief and measure the clarity of instructional material. The study will be conducted at seven sites in Sweden, the study population will consist of up to 100 female subjects.
Replication of three clinical trial emulations CANVAS, LEADER, and SAVOR TIMI that form part of the RCT-Duplicate initiative, sponsored by the FDA and delivered by the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School. AstraZeneca will use the Instant Health Data platform PANALGOS (IHD) for the analyses.
This study is an explorative, open, single-arm clinical investigation to collect real-life measurement data in order to assess the mathematical algorithms involved in TENA SmartCare Change Indicator.
