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 PreDECESS trial is a prospective study where that will evaluate a new method taking care of premature infants in gestational weeks 30+0 to 34+6 at birth. The new method includes delayed cord clamping and early skin-to-skin contact with a parent. Two populations of infants with their parents will be compared. Infants taken care of in the traditional way before the new method is introduced, and infants taken care of with the new method when it is being introduced. Primary question: Does delayed cord clamping and early skin-to skin contact (SSC) lead to better bonding between parents and their infants? Secondary questions: Are there any potential adverse effects with delayed cord clamping and early skin-to skin contact (SSC)? Is there a difference in infants level of bilirubin, haemoglobin or proBNP? Is there a difference in infants growth? Is there a difference in infants neurological development? Is there a difference in infants and parents level of stress? Is there a difference in mothers production of breastmilk, frequency of breastfeeding or experience of breastfeeding? Is there a difference in parents mood? How do parents of preterm infants experience giving birth of their preterm baby before and after the introduction of the new method?
Stroke survivors frequently suffer disabilities including motor and cognitive problems, impairments in speech and vision, depression, and several other disabilities that worsen their quality of life. Some will recover fully after stroke and others will have permanent impairments. Few studies show trajectories of recovery in different domains after stroke, hence recovery time-lines are not fully known. Also, the whole range of mechanisms leading to recovery are not precisely known (1). To monitor those mechanisms one can utilize biomarkers. In parallel to the studies of recovery, studies on time series of biomarkers after stroke are limited (2). Hence, a crucial first step to increase knowledge on biomarkers of stroke recovery is to gain a better understanding of the time course of both stroke recovery and biomarker patterns. Biomarkers can later be used for outcome predictions after stroke.
This is a prospective observational substudy of the STEPCARE trial ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05564754) with the aim to examine whether prognostication of neurological outcome after cardiac arrest can be performed earlier than the 72 h time-point recommended by guidelines today.
The overall aim of the research project is to assess whether the quality of life of patients with severe eating disorders is improved by dental treatment. Patients diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa or non-specific binge eating disorder with extensive dental treatment need will be treated with resin composite restorations or prosthetic therapy. The primary outcome measures is oral health related quality of life. Secondary are orofacial functions and oral esthetics. Patients will be compared to a waiting list.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether milvexian compared to placebo reduce the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke.
COMPLETE-2 is a prospective, multi-centre, randomized controlled trial comparing a strategy of physiology-guided complete revascularization to angiography-guided complete revascularization in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) who have undergone successful culprit lesion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). COMPLETE-2 OCT is a large scale, prospective, multi-centre, observational, imaging study of patients with STEMI or NSTEMI and multivessel CAD in a subset of eligible COMPLETE-2 patients.
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a disorder characterized by lack of attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It can have major impact on everyday life and result in negative consequences for one's personal, academic, and work situation. For individuals with symptoms of ADHD, increased levels of anxiety and depression are common, and an overall reduction of quality of life is often present. This study protocol describes a clinical trial of internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT), using a randomized controlled study design, with the primary aim to increase quality of life, as well as to reduce symptoms of ADHD, anxiety, depression, and stress. A second aim is to investigate, by qualitative means, what aspects of treatment were perceived as helpful and hindering when it comes to completing iCBT. Two hundred participants with symptoms of ADHD will be included and randomized to two conditions (treatment and wait-list control). The treatment period is comprised of ten weeks, with two mandatory modules and ten modules from which the participants can choose freely. Self-report measures are completed by the participants at baseline and end of treatment, as well as at a six-month follow-up. The treatment is guided by therapists and consists of weekly correspondence with the participants. The study will utilize an intention to treat design, with ANOVAs and Reliable Change Index to evaluate treatment effects. The qualitative part of the project will be interview-based and employ thematic analysis. Lastly, a psychometric evaluation of a common instrument for determining ADHD-symptoms will also be made. The results will hopefully contribute to the evidence base for iCBT for individuals with symptoms of ADHD and help disseminate potentially effective interventions.
This is an open-label, multicenter study evaluating the dose, effect, safety and tolerability of intravenous PDNO infusion given to patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery with post-operative acute pulmonary hypertension (aPH).
This study aims to develop and evaluate a model for systematic and evidence-based cancer rehabilitation for people with esophageal and gastric cancer to provide conditions for a better quality of life and fewer cancer-related symptoms.
This is a follow-up study of subjects who received NTLA-2001 in a previous clinical trial as an observational evaluation of the long-term effects of the investigational therapy.
