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.
To review the safety and efficacy of injections with Ozurdex (700 μg dexamethasone) in clinical practice management of patients with DME.
Aim: To study if a person-centered physical therapy intervention program contributes to diminished fatigue in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).
Irritable Bowel Syndrome with diarrhoea (IBS-D) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder characterised by chronic or recurrent abdominal pain or discomfort and diarrhoea. This trial aims at the evaluation of the efficacy and safety of oral ibodutant 10 mg once daily as compared to placebo in women with IBS-D over a 24-week treatment period
To compare the effectiveness of unilateral pulmonary collapse (right lung) to bilateral pulmonary collapse for cardiac de-airing in open left-sided heart surgery.
This was to determine the efficacy, based upon overall survival, of ruxolitinib added to capecitabine for the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer.
The primary aim of this study is to examine the effects of a mindfulness-based stress reduction training program, delivered in individual web-based sessions, among breast cancer patients. The objectives are to study and answer questions regarding effects of the such training in a randomized controlled trial including the following outcome measures: physical and mental health status, perceived stress, post-traumatic stress symptoms, psychological well-being, and sleep quality. In addition to the primary aim, the investigators plan to explore potential mechanisms through which mindfulness training lead to improvement in perceived stress, well-being and sleep-quality. This will be studied by mediational analyses.
The purpose of this study was to offer patients who had participated in one of the phase II PK or phase III studies on FK506E (MR4) the possibility to continue FK506E (MR4) until commercial availability of the drug and to record long term efficacy and safety data.
The purpose of the Evera MRI™ study is to confirm safety and efficacy of the Evera MRI ICD (Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator) System in the clinical MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) environment when subjects receive MRI scans without positioning restrictions (MRI scans may occur anywhere on the body).
The purposes of this study are - to determine the prevalence, size and impact on quality of life of lymphedema of the lower extremities after primary radical surgery with hysterectomy +/- pelvic - and paraaortic lymphadenectomy in women with endometrial uterine carcinoma FIGO (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) stage 1 and 2 - to analyze risk factors for development of lymphedema in this specific group of patients. Our hypotheses are that women who have lymphadenectomy more often suffer from lymphedema, subjectively and objectively, and have an impaired quality of life. This is a Swedish multicenter study carried out in 17 departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology and in 3 departments of Oncology. All participants are treated according to the Swedish National Guidelines for Endometrial Cancer. 130 women with endometrial cancer who have a hysterectomy with lymphadenectomy (high-risk endometrial carcinomas) and 130 women with endometrial cancer who have a hysterectomy without lymphadenectomy (low-risk endometrial carcinomas) are prospectively enrolled in the study. The participants are examined preoperatively and on 3 occasions postoperatively, i.e. 4-6 weeks , 6 months and 12 months postoperatively. Determination of occurrence of lymphedema of the lower extremities are determined objectively by 1) a standardized clinical evaluation according to Bruna et al.[1] and 2) determining the leg volume according to the cone model by Sitzia [2] by systematically measuring of leg circumferences. In addition, occurrence of lymphedema is measured subjectively by the participants. On the same four occasions as the leg circumference measurements are conducted the patients complete two generic health related quality of life forms (the EuroQol EQ-5D and the Short-Form 36 SF-36) and the condition specific quality of life form for limb lymphedema (LYMQOL). Demographic and clinical data are systematically collected until one year postoperatively including occurrence of complications and given adjuvant oncological therapy such as chemo- and radiation therapy. On each occasion of clinical control a vaginal ultrasound examination is carried out in order to register pelvic and abdominal lymphocele formation or lymphatic fluid effusion intraabdominally.
The aim of this project is to evaluate the effectiveness of a culturally adapted parenting support program for Somali parents living in Sweden on children's and parent´s mental health. In recent years the Somali population in Sweden has increased and is currently one of the largest groups among ethnic minorities. Most of the Somali people have arrived as refugees and have experienced war, trauma and conflict. Research shows that migration to a new social context/society is challenging for a family and may together with previous experiences of war, separation, create stress and mental illness. This leads to consequences such as family violence, child abuse, relational problems, drug problems and school problems for children. There is a vast knowledge on the association between parents' mental health, positive parent-child relationship and children's health and well-being. Previous studies have shown that parenting programs aimed to support parent-child relationship and/or improve parental skills have positive effects on parental mental health and on children's behavior. Most municipalities in Sweden offer their residents a structured parenting program, but these programs do not reach those of ethnic minorities. Studies show that parenting programs mainly target parents who can speak Swedish fluently and that the parenting programs are not yet culturally adapted.
