Filter by:This single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is designed to compare effects of aldafermin, (NGM282), 1 mg, and placebo given daily by subcutaneous injection on bowel functions and hepatic synthesis and fecal excretion of bile acids in patients with diarrhea associated with bile acid malabsorption (BAM).
This investigation is designed to evaluate the acid neutralisation action of a new test product versus unmatched placebo.
Primary objectives: - To assess the effectiveness of the PRALUENT® 2 ml SYDNEY auto-injector as measured by the lipid-lowering effect of alirocumab after approx. 12 weeks treatment - To assess the treatment satisfaction, as well as patient adherence and persistence after approximately 12 weeks of treatment with the PRALUENT® 2 ml SYDNEY auto-injector Secondary objective: Safety and tolerability
The main objective is to study the effects of the intake of a nutraceutical on health indicators, focused on sleep and stress, as well as cardiovascular (blood pressure...), circulating (cortisol) and body composition parameters in a Spanish adult population.
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the LVR technique on cough ineffectiveness, to determine its benefit as a simple, safe, and inexpensive cough augmentation technique, and to determine how much the LVR method, for augmenting CPF, is useful in enhancing the success of extubation and reducing the rate of reintubation.
The aim of this study is to determine and compare the effects of neuromuscular control exercises for the shoulder, and standard conservative exercise programs, which are different forms of exercise and have an important role in the treatment of partial thickness rotator cuff tears on treatment. Thus, it is aimed to compare these exercise types with different mechanisms on treatment, to determine the place of neuromuscular control exercises in treatment and whether they are more effective than conventional exercises.
The passive Talaris Demonstrator (TD) is developed in continuation of previous prototypes. The main goal of the experiment is to evaluate the effectiveness of TD during daily activities.
This is a single-arm hybrid implementation trial of men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) involving a patient-administered mobile app for consultation audio recordings.
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a vestibular disorder that manifests itself as a result of dizziness caused by the otoconia in the inner ear coming out of their places and circulating freely in the semicircular canals or by attaching to the cupula and sensitizing the cupula to head movements against gravity. The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of pharmacological treatment initiated by the physician and vestibular rehabilitation initiated by physiotherapist in patients with acute benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Thirty patients, aged 18-50 years, who applied to the Bağcılar Safa Hospital, were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups, 15 pharmacological control group and 15 vestibular rehabilitation group. 8 patients in the pharmacological control group were given the drug containing betahistine by the physician, and 7 patients received the drug containing additional dimenhydrinate to the betahistine. In the rehabilitation group, exercises including head and eye movements and maneuvering were performed according to the direction of the canal after the exercise, and the patients were given a home exercise program. Treatment continued for 4 weeks. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), dynamic visual acuity test, romberg, semitandem, tandem posture tests with a stopwatch, standing test on one leg with eyes open and closed, and unterberger tests were applied to patients before and after treatment.
Mechanical power is the amount of energy transferred to the respiratory system of patients during each breath period. After overcoming the resistances required for respiration, the remaining energy may end up by damaging the lung parenchyma. Promising studies are showing that this amount of energy, which can be calculated mathematically, can be used as a single indicator instead of the limits used for barotrauma, volu-trauma, or atelecto-trauma in adult patients. However, the MP limit that should not be exceeded in pediatric patients is not yet clear. In this study, we present our MP calculations in pediatric anesthesia
