The purpose of this study is to collect blood and urine samples that may help identify and validate biomarkers for the early detection and risk assessment of acute kidney injury (AKI).
The main purpose of this 2-year lifestyle experiment for waist loss is twofold: 1. to compare whole grains and no grains as part of a healthy diet, 2. to determine if an 8-week exercise program, led by physiotherapists, is more efficient than brief counseling and follow-up. People with abdominal overweight (≥84 cm in women and ≥98 cm in men) and at least one additional cardiovascular risk factor, (typically hypertension, diabetes type 2 or prior cardiovascular disease) are randomly assigned to receive Diet A or Diet B, with or without a structured exercise program at the department of physiotherapy, or to a control group receiving usual care. Diet A and B both include fruit, vegetables, fish, meat, and low-fat dairy products, and differ only in that Diet A recommends exchange of cereal grains for more potatoes, root vegetables, fruit and other carbohydrate-rich foods, while Diet B recommends exchange of regular cereal grains for whole grains. The primary outcome (most important follow-up variable) is change in waist circumference during 2 years. Secondary outcome measures include blood pressure, blood lipids, level of physical activity and, in subjects with diabetes, glycated hemoglobin and fasting blood sugar.
This study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of two doses of ACT 128800 in patients with moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of ponatinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase (CP), accelerated phase (AP) or blast phase (BP) or with philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who either are resistant or intolerant to either dasatinib or nilotinib, or have the (T)hreonine-315-(I)soleucine (T315I) mutation.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of a cognitive behavioral guided self-help training provided via the internet on tinnitus distress in a German sample.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the Reducer is safe and effective in treating the symptoms of refractory angina in patients that suffer from refractory angina who demonstrate reversible ischemia.
The aim of this randomised, double-blind crossover study was to determine whether Doxycycline has an impact on the persistent symptoms post-neuroborreliosis, through alterations in the immune response and whether such an effect could influence the clinical outcome.
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with paclitaxel plus AMG 386 is superior to paclitaxel plus placebo in women with recurrent partially platinum sensitive or resistant epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer or fallopian tube cancer. AMG 386 is a man-made medication that is designed to stop the development of blood vessels in cancer tissues. Cancer tissues rely on the development of new blood vessels, a process called angiogenesis, to obtain a supply of oxygen and nutrients to grow.
This study will assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of two formulations of GSK Biologicals' pneumococcal vaccine 2189242A given as a 3-dose primary vaccination course during the first 6 months of life followed by a booster dose at 12-15 months of age and co-administered with DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine.
