Filter by:This study, titled "Prospective Randomized Study on Multimodal Self-Treatment for Women with Incontinence Symptoms Using a Digital Health Application," abbreviated as DINKS, aims to investigate the efficacy of a digital health application in treating incontinence in women. The study involves a single-center, single blinded, randomized, controlled trial with two arms: one receiving digital therapy intervention and the other serving as a control group with standard of care. The primary objective is to reduce the frequency of incontinence episodes over a 12-week intervention period, with secondary goals including improvements in disease symptoms, quality of life, and patient activation. The study plans to recruit 198 female participants and assess various endpoints related to incontinence severity, quality of life, and treatment outcomes.
This clinical trial evaluates the use of an imaging scan (18F-rhPSMA-7.3 positron emission tomography [PET]/magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) for identifying patients who are at risk of having their disease spread to the lymph nodes in those undergoing radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized). Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/computed tomography (CT) has emerged as an option to stage newly diagnosed high risk prostate cancer patients. PSMA PET/CT has demonstrated improved diagnostic accuracy for identifying metastasis. PET is procedure in which a small amount of radioactive glucose (sugar) is injected into a vein, and a scanner is used to make detailed, computerized pictures of areas inside the body where the glucose is used. Because cancer cells often use more glucose than normal cells, the pictures can be used to find cancer cells in the body. MRI is procedure in which radio waves and a powerful magnet linked to a computer are used to create detailed pictures of areas inside the body. These pictures can show the difference between normal and diseased tissue. This study may help researchers learn whether 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 PET/ MRI may improve predicting which patients are at risk of lymph node metastases and who are suitable candidates for pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with localized high-risk prostate cancer undergoing radical prostatectomy.
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the immune response and to evaluate safety of the RSVPreF3 OA investigational vaccine in non-immunocompromised adults 18-49 years of age (YOA), who are at increased risk (AIR) for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease, compared to older adults (OA) (>=) 60 YOA and above
This is a prospective multicenter comparative study, aiming to compare probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) and endoscopic biopsies in the diagnosis of the whole specific gastric lesion especially for distinguishing low grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN) from high grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) and create an endoscopic image database for the follow-up research.
Our objective is to carry out research on prevention and control of noncommunicable chronic diseases, and establish a risk prediction mechanism for chronic diseases to promote early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment of chronic diseases in natural population in Qianwan District of Ningbo, significantly reduce medical costs and extend population life span.
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common complication after surgery that is associated with more adverse events and death. The goal of this observational study is to learn about the diagnosis performance of long intergenic non-coding RNA(LINC01844) level in blood of older people for POCD. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the relative level of LINC01844 in blood help diagnose POCD of older people after surgery? Participants undergoing elective lumbar decompression and fusion will finish neuropsychological evaluations one day before and 1st, 3rd and 5th day after surgery. At the same timepoint, the relative level of LINC01844 in blood will also be tested.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sivelestat sodium and dexamethasone in the treatment of patients with moderate to severe ARDS. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is Sivelestat sodium more effective in the treatment of patients with moderate to severe ARDS compared with placebo? - Is dexamethasone more effective in the treatment of patients with moderate to severe ARDS compared with placebo? Participants will receive Sivelestat sodium, dexamethasone or placebo. Researchers will compare the efficacy and safety of Sivelestat sodium, dexamethasone and placebo.
BACKGROUND: Binge eating disorder (BED) is the worldwide most-prevalent eating disorder. It is associated with psychiatric comorbidities and obesity, a high impact in life functioning, and high morbidity and mortality. First symptoms appear frequently in youths, who most commonly present incomplete (subthreshold) criteria for BED (precursor forms, PREC-BED). While some subjects will evolve from PREC-BED to BED, there is no gold standard to identify the clinical evolution. Information from prior studies suggest early alterations in reward and inhibitory brain circuits in PREC-BED may predict increased vulnerability or resilience to develop BED. Tools based on MRI brain connectivity analyses (MRI-BC), built on robust and interpretable connectivity whole-brain models, have proven successful in diagnostic classification and predicting certain clinical outcomes. OBJECTIVES: To study MRI-BC diagnostic markers of PREC-BED and to explore prognosis at 1 year of follow-up in a sample of adolescents with obesity (12-17 years old). METHODS: A) Transversal analytical design: 3-group (n=34 per group) comparison of neuroimaging (MRI-BC), neurocognitive and clinical markers in adolescents with obesity and i) BED, ii) PREC-BED, iii) no BED nor PREC-BED (Healthy group, HC). B) Longitudinal analytical design, pilot, exploratory: adolescents with PREC-BED will be evaluated in clinical and neurocognitive variables at 1 year. Baseline brain neuroimaging variables (alone and in combination with clinical and neurocognitive variables) will be analyzed as predictors of clinical prognosis, including conversion to BED.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of LM108 plus toripalimab plusnab-paclitaxel or eribulin as first-line or post-line treatment in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.
The goal of this randomized, crossover, clinical trial is to link: 1) gastrointestinal motility patterns induced by acute consumption of whole and refined grains, 2) enteric microbial production of bioactive metabolites, and 3) circulating postprandial appearance of metabolites important to cardiometabolic health including glucose, triglycerides, and cholesterol. Participants will be asked to consume a Smartpill monitoring device that records metrics of gastrointestinal motility in response to whole or refined grains, monitor cardiometabolic metabolties over an 8 hour postprandial window, and provide a fecal sample for microbiome-related analyses.
