Filter by:The overall objective of the proposed study is to determine if Dexmedetomidine HCl (BXCL501) is safe for treatment of alcohol use disorder (AUD) with comorbid posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and also shows potential signals of efficacy thereby supporting the conduct of later phase clinical trials. Safety endpoints will be compared following an alcohol challenge without and concurrent with BXCL501 treatment.
The study is to provide reliable estimates of the effect of study treatment on hospital length of stay through to 28 days after randomisation. The protocol describes an overarching trial design to provide reliable evidence on the efficacy of candidate therapies for children hospitalised with PIMS-TS. It is an adaptive pragmatic platform trial with an open-label randomisation. New trial arms can be added as evidence emerges that other candidate therapeutics should be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and potential efficacy of IMB-1018972 in patients with non-obstructive HCM.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of nivolumab in routine cancer practice in China. Part one of the study will investigate nivolumab for non-small cell lung cancer previously treated with platinum-based chemotherapy that has locally advanced or has spread. Part two will investigate nivolumab for post-platinum squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck that is recurrent or has spread. Part three will investigate nivolumab for locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. Part four will investigate nivolumab for recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck.
The increasing number of persons >65 years of age form a special population at risk for nosocomial and other health care-associated infections. The vulnerability of this age group is related to impaired host defenses such as diminished cell-mediated immunity. Lifestyle considerations, e.g., travel and living arrangements, and residence in nursing homes, can further complicate the clinical picture. The magnitude and diversity of health care-associated infections in the aging population are generating new arenas for prevention and control efforts. Common infections leading to hospitalizations in this age group result in respiratory infections and bacteraemia and the impact of these infections on the quality of life and disability in aged populations has not been accurately quantified in a European setting. This study aims to capture and quantify the impact of infectious diseases on quality of life in an aged population.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of commercially available genital vibrator use on sexual health, female pelvic floor disorders, and overall quality of life among a diverse population of women.
Children after congenital cataract surgery experience a lower quality of life and reduced functional vision. Their families have also been seriously affected. Investigators should pay more attention to them, and measures should be administered to families.
The aim of the present study was to investigate the efficacy of ischemic postconditioning in acute myocardial infarction patients. The safety of patients enrolled in the study was ensured during the entire study. Over 18 years old men and women were enrolled in the study who arrived to 2 of the most acknowledged Hungarian cardiac centres due to acute myocardial infarction and fulfilled all inclusion and exclusion criteria as per protocol. Patients in the order of their arrival were assigned either to control or post conditioned groups by turns. Medical treatment of the control group was done according to standard Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) guidelines, i.e. there was no further intervention after artery opening for 8 minutes, then stenting was performed. In the post conditioned group, after reperfusion has been confirmed, the coronary artery was occluded by inflation of the stent balloon 4 times (for 1-1 minute) followed by 1-1-minute reperfusion repeatedly to induce ischemic postconditioning. Postconditioning procedure was followed by stenting as in the control group. All other interventions and treatments in both patient groups were identical according to guidelines.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE - blood clots that form in deep veins or in the lungs) has been identified as a leading cause of death in economically developed countries for pregnant and recently-pregnant women. There is evidence that clotting parameters can take up to 6 weeks to return to normal for women who have had term deliveries, however there is an absence of information on time taken for clotting parameters to normalise following abortion. As such, existing guidelines are based solely on expert opinion and recommend durations of VTE prevention from as short as 7 days, up to 6 weeks following abortion. All women are assessed for risk of VTE, but data are needed to inform an evidence-based approach to prevention of VTE in these women. The findings from this pilot study have the potential to inform clinical guidance and possibly a larger study subsequently.
By means of clinical satisfaction and clinical scores comparison of an open to a minimally invasive distal chevron osteotomy for correction of a hallux valgus deformity is performed.
