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 aim of this study is to learn more about the following treatment options in adults with CIDP: - Subcutaneous self-infusion with HyQvia. - Intravenous infusion with Gammagard/Kiovig. Gammagard and Kiovig are the brand names for the same immunoglobulin compound. The study is in two parts. In Part 1, participants receive either HyQvia or a placebo subcutaneously. In Part 2 (only for participants who have a CIPD relapse during Part 1), participants will receive Gammagard Liquid/Kiovig intravenously. US participants will receive Gamunex-C. The first SC infusion will be given in the study clinic. The remaining SC infusions may be given in the study clinic or the participant's home. This will be decided by the study doctor and whether the participant or their caregiver can do the self-infusion.
The primary objective of this study is to examine the effect of LCIG relative to that of OMT on NMS associated with PD.
Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), especially when oxygen delivery is low, is associated with acute kidney injury. Unpublished data shows that renal oxygen delivery is compromised during CPB due to low hematocrit and redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys. We wish to study if increased CPB flow can improve renal oxygenation. Patients who develop cardiac failure after weaning from CPB will be treated as per our departments routine with the inotropic agent milrinone, and measurements will be made before and after treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether P-3058 nail solution is a safe and effective treatment for onychomycosis.
Atelectasis is common during and after general anaesthesia and a number of interventions have been suggested in order to prevent their formation. The use of Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) during general anaesthesia has in recent years been questioned. The investigators hypothesize that the use of PEEP as a single intervention improves oxygenation and prevents atelectasis as investigated by computed tomography compared to a control group with zero PEEP.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the effect of Obeticholic Acid treatment compared to placebo on 1) histological improvement and 2) liver-related clinical outcomes in patients with non-cirrhotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with liver fibrosis.
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of once-daily application of CLS001 topical gel compared to vehicle gel in subjects with severe papulopustular rosacea.
The health-related quality of life questionnaire "EQ-5D" has been collected in connection with several interventional and observational studies where the no-touch vein harvesting technique in CABG has been used. The results of the questionnaires will be compiled and reported in this study.
A national study of a three year cohort consisting of all patients diagnosed with anal cancer in 2011- 2013 with data retrieval from three national registries: Cancer Registry, Patient registry and Cause of Death Registry all within the Swedish Board of Health and Welfare. All out- and inpatient visits with diagnoses, admission dates and discharge dates will be requested including. Patient documentation from the concerned hospitals will be collected and data on the details of the treatment collected retrospectively in a standardised fashion using a clinical record form. Comorbidity will be calculated using data from the Patient Registry using all main and co-diagnoses 2 years prior and then at least two years after treatment cessation. Detailed questionnaires will be sent out once at 2-3 years and a second time at about 6 years after index treatment.
Secretory otitis media (SOM) or middle ear effusion is a common finding affecting children in the age of 4-5 years. It is usually associated with 5-15 deci Bells hearing loss. Although spontaneous resolution with normalisation of hearing is the usual outcome, this can take several months. Secretory otitis media is the most common cause of hearing impairment in the paediatric age group. When the hearing loss caused by SOM is bilateral and persists for 3-6 months or more, surgery with tympanostomy tube insertion under general anaesthesia is indicated. In Sweden, 10000 children undergo this operation annually. Although many children with unilateral or bilateral SOM improve in the summer, the problem usually recurs in the autumn or winter. The cost of SOM for the Swedish society was 600 million Swedish crowns 2005. In two previous studies, the investigators concluded that the nonsurgical treatment method, that was developed to assist children with SOM equalising their middle ear pressure, could normalise the hearing level in 80 % of children with SOM of minimum duration of 3 months. These children avoided therefore grommet insertion. The investigators would like to assess the effect of this new treatment method on mainly the hearing threshold of children with SOM. The investigators expect that using the new method could help children with SOM avoid operation with grommet insertion.
