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 purpose of this study is to compare the blood pressure reducing property of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation with the blood pressure reducing drug felodipin.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether tailored internet-administered cbt is a feasible treatment for anxiety disorders in clinical settings.
The aim of the study is to evaluate self-reported adherence to and the effects of an intervention model consisting of individualized prescribed dietary advice (DAP) in combination with Motivational Interviewing (MI), social support and mobile services in obese patients in primary health care. The specific aim is to relate effects of the intervention model to self-reported health, biomarkers for coronary heart disease, diabetes, some cancer forms, sleep duration and quality, health economy, oral health, dietary intake and physical activity. This is a two-armed randomized controlled study. The arms are: 1) Control group (care as usual) and 2) Experimental group (MoR). The volunteers will be consecutively, for each sex, randomized to the experimental and the control group, respectively. The experimental group will receive DAP together with Motivational interviewing up to six months after the start of the study. From six months up to 24 months the participants will receive social support online and mobile services. The control group will receive dietary information according to the "Habo model". The previously mentioned diet will be recommended to both the control group and the experimental group since it is the method in which the investigators give the information they want to study and not the diet per se. Thus, it is only the way the investigators give dietary information that differs between the groups. The study also includes qualitative interviews. The aim of these studies is to gain understanding of patients' and health professionals' experience and attitudes around food, lifestyle and support functions associated with dietary change. The sampling approach involves the purposeful selection of cases with a wide range of variation, which means that the researcher selects people who are able to provide rich information about the current issue. To achieve diversity, it is useful that both women and men are involved in the studies, as well as people of different ages and with different experiences of providing or receiving dietary advice. About 15-20 people will participate in each interview study.
Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), laboratory analyses and patient reported outcomes, the overall aim of this study is to investigate structural injuries and biochemical alterations in the acutely injured knee and to relate these findings to clinical outcomes at various time points.
ClarityIQ is a novel X-ray imaging technology, that combines advanced real-time image noise reduction algorithms, with state-of-the-art hardware to reduce patient entrance dose significantly. This is realized by anatomy-specific optimization of the full acquisition chain (grid switch, beam filtering, pulse width, spot size, detector and image processing engine) for every clinical task individually. Furthermore, smaller focal spot sizes and shorter pulses are used, which are known to positively influence image quality . The final effect on the clinical image quality is investigated in this study.
Recurrent pain, such as headache, stomach pain and musculoskeletal pain is common in children and adolescents. Children and adolescents are reported to have restrictions in daily life activities, social contacts, and school attendance, and to have poorer academic skills and as well as an increased utilization of heath care services due to pain problems. The treatment approaches available today for teenagers with pain are often biological/physiological and little evidence for their effectiveness has been shown. It is urgent to try new interventions for pain problems in early ages in order to prevent disability, development of maladaptive coping strategies and to avoid negative impact on daily activities. The optimal treatment regime for paediatric pain patients has been suggested to be cognitive behavioural approach integrated with physical therapy The aim of this project is to develop and evaluate in a randomized controlled trial a treatment program with a behavioural medicine approach (suitable to use in primary care or school based health care context) compared with standard treatment for adolescents with persistent pain problems. The aim is also to compare short and long-term costs for patients and for the health care system related to the two interventions, in order to determine strategies for future cost-effective care of children and adolescents experiencing recurrent pain.
A trial testing the outcome of an Internet-based treatment of pathological gambling with the hypothesis that there will be improvements both immediately and up to 36 months. It is also hypnotized that treatment response can be predicted from background variables.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether anorectal application of Nasha Dx is safe and effective for treatment of anal incontinence.
The aims of this study are to investigate whether multimodal treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric cancer is feasible and to evaluate the clinical outcomes and clinical effectiveness of neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy followed by cytoreductive surgery + hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy + early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy, as compared to systemic chemotherapy only, in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment of patients suffering from ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with 1-2 liters of cold saline and central venous catheter cooling with Philips InnerCool RTx Endovascular System prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) result in a reduction in infarct size.
