The aim of the study is to examine the potentials of involving patients with metastatic melanoma in their own care planning through systematic use of patient-reported outcome measures (PROM). Furthermore, to examine the outcome of health-related quality of life, self-efficacy and impact on the patient-physician interaction. Patients (N=282) will be included from three highly specialized hospitals in Denmark. At one hospital patients will complete PROM before each consultation during a year (intervention group). At the two other hospitals patients will not complete PROM (control group). In addition to baseline, measurements will take place after three, six and 12 months. The project is organized and executed with patient involvement in the research process.

Most individuals who have survived an acquired brain injury (ABI) present consequences affecting the sensorimotor, cognitive, affective or behavioural components. The conditions can vary from mild to extreme. The consequences of an ABI may have a considerable impact on their functioning, and secondary conditions like depression or sedentary behaviours, so they suffer changes in their Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL). The purpose of this project is to determine the effect of a physical activity group program on HRQoL. As well as to identify factors that facilitate or act as a barrier to practice physical activity.
This study is to determine if a novel bio-fermented Microbiotic Composite™ can improve the digestive health and subsequent growth and quality of life parameters in a selected group of children in a district in India.
Treatment based on syndrome differentiation is the essence of traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) and forms the individualized treatment. N-of-1 trials may be a good clinical effect evaluation method for the individualized treatment of TCM. This study aims to compare: (1) the efficacy of syndrome differentiation(individualized decoction) with placebo, (2)the efficacy of syndrome differentiation(individualized decoction) with the same prescription minus heat-clearing Chinese herbs, for patients with stable bronchiectasis through N-of-1 trials.

This is an open-label randomized controlled trial of the use of acupuncture in infertile patients receiving In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). Patients will be randomized into two groups: treatment group will receive acupuncture as a complementary approach to IVF and control group will receive the IVF treatment. Groups will be compared with the World Health Organization quality of life (WHOQOL-Bref), short-form 36 (SF-36), State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Scope-Stress questionnaires.
This is a randomized controlled prospective study on the use of therapeutic touch in patients diagnosed with gynecological cancer. The patients will be randomized into three groups: control group (will not receive any interventions with therapeutic touch), placebo group (will receive simulated therapeutic touch intervention by individual not knowing this technique) and treatment group(will receive therapeutic touch intervention by a trained therapeutic touch therapist). Two different quality of life questionnaires will be applied (before and after treatment). Levels of cortisol, salivary IgA, hematological indices and telomerase activity before and after the use of therapeutic touch will be compared between groups.
