Filter by:The investigators will investigate whether high-intensity exercise training can safely improve physical performance in long-term stable heart, kidney, lung, and liver transplant recipients. Adult transplant recipients will participate in Transplantoux, a 6-month individualized home- and group-based training program, with the goal to cycle the Mont Ventoux in France. The investigators will do cardiopulmonary exercise testing : maximal oxygen consumption, maximal power and BMI.
In the proposed study, the investigators assumed that mirror therapy combined with virtual reality technology will provide a better treatment effects than traditional mirror therapy for the patients with unilateral stroke. The aim of the study is to examine the difference in the treatment effects among the combination of task-oriented training with either virtual reality based mirror therapy, mirror therapy or traditional occupational therapy on the upper extremity function and brain activity of the stroke patients.
Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is triggered by the rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque that results in a platelet aggregation reaction in the coronary artery. The administration of antiplatelet agents starting from the acute phase of the disease has helped reduce the risk of ischemic relapse both during initial and long-term hospitalization. Management of clopidogrel following an ischemic event has been the subject of several treatment regimens ranging from a single continuous dose to a sequential double dose of between 7 and 30 days. The CURRENT-OASIS 7 therapeutic trial showed a benefit of clopidogrel double dose in reducing the risk of myocardial intervention (MI) and the composite outcome: cardiovascular mortality, MI, or stroke (CVA/TIA) at 30 days. However, the study protocol was interested in all ACSs, regardless of the Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) status in selected patients. Also, doubling of clopidogrel dose was maintained over 7 days after angioplasty. The literature describes an increased cardiovascular risk in type II diabetics in secondary prevention. No previous study has evaluated the effect of clopidogrel double dose given for 1 month on the reduction of this risk in the long-term in diabetic patients. Thus, the objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of clopidogrel double dose, given for 1 month in ACS in the diabetic patient.
For Non-dialysis subjects with anemia associated with chronic kidney disease, demonstrate non-inferiority of MT-6548 compared to darbepoetin alfa using Hb value and evaluate long-term safety of MT-6548. For subjects not currently receiving ESAs, evaluate Hb correction and maintenance effect of MT-6548 and for subjects currently receiving ESAs, evaluate Hb conversion and maintenance effect of MT-6548
This study evaluates the addition of a mouth rinse containing sea salt, xylitol and lysozyme to standardized oral health practices on biofilm formation and gingival health in a group of young adults.
A Phase 3 comparative study to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Aztreonam-Avibactam (ATM-AVI) ± Metronidazole (MTZ) versus Meropenem (MER) ± Colistin (COL) for the treatment of serious infections due to Gram negative bacteria.
There are ca 1000 new cases of bladder cancer in Finland/year. The curative therapy for high risk bladder cancer is radical cystectomy. The golden standard is still an open surgery despite development of laparoscopic techniques. Epidural analgesia is considered as most effective for the treatment of postoperative pain. However, there is a need for other effective options, because epidural analgesia has some contraindications and risks for serious complications. Recently quadratus lumborum block has gained popularity in the treatment of postoperative pain after various surgeries in the area from hip to mamilla. It is more beneficial than other peripheral blocks, since it covers also the visceral nerves. Contrary to the need of epidural catether a single shot QLB has reported to last up to 48 hours. Inadequately treated acute postoperative pain is considered as one of the main risk factors for persistent postoperative pain. 44 patients aging 18-85 will be recruited based on a power calculation. The primary outcome measure is the acute postoperative need for rescue analgesics. Secondary outcomes are acute pain (NRS scale), nausea, vomiting, mobilisation and longterm outcomes such as quality of life and persistent pain.
Critically ill patients who require extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are the sickest in the hospital. More patients are surviving but survivors have compromised functional recovery for months or years. This trial aims to determine if early, physical training commenced within 48 hours of ECMO is feasible and improves muscle strength and functional status in patients compared to standard practice in a randomised controlled trial of 30 ICU patients.
This study will be conducted to assess the safety and tolerability of BOS172722 when administered as monotherapy and in combination with paclitaxel in participants with advanced nonhaematologic malignancies and also to establish the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose of BOS172722 in combination with paclitaxel in those participants.
The purpose of this study is to provide real world data on treatment with enzalutamide in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients. The primary purpose is to evaluate overall survival (OS) in mCRPC patients treated with enzalutamide who have previously undergone treatment with chemotherapy (docetaxel) (post chemo patients). This study will also evaluate treatment duration with enzalutamide in patients pre- and post-chemo.
