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 assess whether maraviroc administered once daily is non-inferior to emtricitabine/tenofovir also administered once daily each in combination with darunavir/ritonavir in the treatment of antiretroviral-naive patients as evaluated at Week 48 of treatment.
The purpose of this study is determine the relationship between pain and protrusion of the implant after surgery for a intertrochanteric fracture.
The primary aim of this study was to determine the Harris hip score as an evaluation of hip function, in mentally competent elderly patients (>65 years old) treated with either THR or IF, after contracting a displaced femoral neck fracture. The secondary aim was to compare the rate of reoperations and complications between the two groups.
Subjects referred for a routine CTA (computed tomography angiography) or MRA (magnetic resonance angiography) will be invited to participate in the study and subjects will be involved in the study for between 2 and 12 days. Two to three visits to the study doctor will be required. This study will compare the diagnostic results of Gadobutrol enhanced MRA images with MRA images taken without contrast agent using images from a CTA as the standard of reference, which may have been performed up to 60 days prior to enrolment. If a CTA has not been performed in this prior time period, a CTA is required for the study. MRA and CTA images will be collected for an independent review (blinded read).
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. It is not yet known whether surgery is more effective with or without radiation therapy in treating nonmetastatic retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying radiation therapy followed by surgery to see how well it works compared with surgery alone in treating patients with previously untreated nonmetastatic retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma.
The study will investigate whether physical exercise, or dietary restrictions, or a combination of both, among overweight and obese postpartum women lead to a significantly larger reduction in weight in a longer perspective, compared to similar women not receiving the intervention. The study also will investigate the effects on body composition, cardiovascular fitness, blood lipids, insulin levels and inflammation markers. In total, 68 women with pre-pregnancy BMI 25 - 34.9 will be randomized at 10 wk postpartum into: (1) physical exercise, (2) dietary restrictions, (3) physical exercise + dietary restrictions and (4) control group. The intervention lasts for 12 wk and longterm effects are measured 1 yr after trial initiation. To date only studies showing short term (12 wk) effects exist. Our study is the first to include four intervention groups, so that separate effects of physical activity and dietary restriction and their interaction, can be assessed. Further, the investigators will estimate effects on body composition taking body water into account and estimate total energy expenditure with higher precision than previously. Overweight and obesity is an escalating problem in Sweden. Sustainable weight reduction programs are urgently needed. During the postpartum period, women may be motivated to lose weight. Information aimed at promoting life style changes among overweight and obese women could in a longer perspective be integrated in the regular maternal health care in Sweden.
General anaesthesia impairs respiratory function in overweight patients. The investigators wanted to compare arterial concentration of sevoflurane and oxygen in overweight patients ventilated with increased tidal volume, or normal tidal volume with added 10 cm H2O PEEP.
The objectives of this study are: - To investigate if the endogenous cholesterol metabolite, 4beta-OHcholesterol could be used as a marker for induction of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4. - To compare 4beta-OHcholesterol with midazolam as a marker for induction of CYP3A4.
The purpose of this study is to examine how well two medicines in combination (solifenacin succinate and mirabegron) work in the treatment of bladder problems over a 12-week period.
This is a Phase 3, open label, long term follow-up (LTFU), multicenter, noncomparative, and single arm study of brivaracetam (BRV).
