Filter by:VLCKD has showed to be an impactful diet on several metabolism aspects and has proven to be useful for preventing and treating diabetes mellitus type 2, overweight, chronic inflammation and fatty liver. For this reason, the aim of this pilot study is to examinate the potential effect of a VLCKD on a group of patients that contemporarily have DM2, obesity and Non alcholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), comparing the results with an ipocaloric diet based on Mediterranean Principles and Italian LARN (SINU 2014). This study will consider several interrelated outcomes such as anthropometric data, hematochemical and hormonal parameters, questionnaires, stool microbiota and omics, blood microvescicles, urine tests, instrumental tests (DXA, BIVA, ecographies), biopses and functional tests. 40 subjects will be evaluated and divided in two groups of 20 (VLCKD) and 20 (MedDiet).
In patients expressing the SCN5A-E1784K mutation (Glu1784Lys), cardiovascular risk is difficult to define as the stratification of these patients is challenging. From our experience, major cardiovascular events (MCE) tend to occur more frequently in patients expressing overlap syndrome phenotype (Brugada syndrome and Long QT syndrome type 3)than in patients expressing a single phenotype (whether Brugada syndrome or Long QT syndrome type 3). This trials is led on the impact on Risk Stratification of Overlap Syndrome Phenotype in Patients With E1784K Mutation in SCN5A ( RISKOVER )
This is a randomized controlled trial of two diets (low-carbohydrate and Mediterranean diet) in the treatment of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The trial assesses the effects of the two diets on clinical, metabolic and hormonal parameters, inflammatory markers and gut microbiota . This study is an interventional, randomized controlled trial, open-labeled.
Coronavirus (19) is a pandemic that affects many countries allover the world. Many patients experienced symptoms as dyspnea and fatigue after their recovery from coronavirus . These symptoms appear to occur regardless the severity of the infection. In addition, many studies reported change in the inflammatory status and immunity in post covid patients. laser acupuncture is a painless noninvasive modality that is used in treating many diseases. laser acupuncture appear to have a role in relieving symptoms, altering inflammatory status and boosting immunity in post covid patients.
The current study aimed to determine the appropriate exercise intensity for the rehabilitation of children with down syndrome.
Literature shows different pathologies or combination pathologies can cause gluteal region pain and it can be difficult to diagnose. Piriformis syndrome is one of the cause of gluteal region pain, symptoms of myofascial pain syndrome affected gluteus maximus muscle may masquerade as piriformis muscle syndrome or both syndrome can be seen together. The aim of this study is diagnosis myofascial pain syndrome of gluteus maximus muscle and piriformis syndrome by physical examination, special clinical tests and ultrasound guided diagnostic injection test in patients presenting with gluteal pain and evaluate the coexistence of both syndromes.
The primary aim of the study would be to determine whether there is a difference in survival in the Intensive Care Unit between the group of patients with septic shock diagnosed with euthyroid sick syndrome who were treated with T3 hormone compared to the group of patients not treated with this hormone. Secondary objectives of the research would be: Compare the level of thyroid hormones between the examined groups and 1. laboratory indicators of septic shock (C-reactive protein-CRP, procalcitonin, leukocytes, acid-base status, lactates) 2. APACHE II, SOFA and SAPS II patient assessment scales, 3. inflammatory prognostic systems (ratio of CRP and albumin-modified Glasgow prognostic score-mGPS, ratio of neutrophils and lymphocytes - NLR, ratio of platelets and lymphocytes - PLR, and ratio of leukocytes and CRP, prognostic index - PI) 4. hemodynamic stability of patients (MAP, systolic and diastolic pressure) in the periods of admission T0, T3, T6, T12, T24 and every 24 hours for 4 days, 5. effect of vasoactive drugs, 6. the need for mechanical ventilation categorized as yes or no, in case - number of respirator days, 7. length of stay in the Intensive Care Unit, 8. treatment outcome categorized as 28 day survival.
Tourette syndrome (TS) and chronic tic disorder (CTD) are neurodevelopmental disorders that impact approximately 1% of 5-18 year olds worldwide. Both TS and CTD are characterised by the presence of tics, which are repetitive, purposeless, movements or vocalisations of short duration which can occur many times throughout a day. Tics can have a significant negative impact on daily functioning and quality of life, hence, many seek out approaches to manage and reduce their tics and the urges people with TS or CTD often feel preceding them. The two main evidence-based approaches to treating tics are behavioural therapies and medicationÍž both of which can be effective, but accessibility and waitlists are often an issue for behavioural therapies and side effects are common with medication use. Consequently, there is an urgent need for the development of alternative, safe and accessible treatments. This study aims to examine the effects of rhythmic pulses of electrical stimulation delivered to the wrist in treating tics in people with TS and CTD. In recent work, the investigators have shown that this type of electrical stimulation known as median nerve stimulation (MNS), can substantially reduce tics and related urges during stimulation. The investigators now want to extend this work to examine the effects of the stimulation on a higher number of people, compared to placebo and treatment as usual. The investigators will do this through assessment of symptom change using questionnaires, interviews and videos collection during four weeks of stimulation and two time points afterwards. The investigators have developed a new MNS device for this trial which is portable and easy to use. The primary hypothesis is that active rhythmic MNS will lead to a reduction in tic severity compared to a placebo condition. The secondary hypothesis is that MNS will also have a positive beneficial effect on urges, impairment, well-being and co-occurring Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) symptoms compared to both sham stimulation and no stimulation.
This is a phase2a, multicenter, double-blind, placebo control, randomized study to investigate the efficacy and safety of SA001 in subjects with pSS. A total of 28 subjects (including dropout rate of 30%) will be randomized in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to receive 3 different doses of SA001 or placebo everyday for 8 weeks. Screening visit will be performed within 1 to 2 weeks(run-in period) prior to dosing after signing the informed consent form (ICF). During the run-in period, if necessary, subjects will apply artificial tears in the symptomatic eyes according to the dosage of artificial tears. Only subjects who have completed the run-in period and who are determined to be suitable for the study eligibility(inclusion/exclusion) criteria as a result of the screening evaluations are randomized to one of the four groups. Subjects will receive investigational product start on Day 0 for 8 weeks during the active treatment period. Subjects will visit to the study site on 4 and 8 weeks after starting dosing investigational product. Subjects will be in this study approximately 12weeks, which includes run-in period of 1 to 2weeks and a safety follow-up period of 2weeks.
A multicenter randomized controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate whether the ability to work in Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome Type II (PSPS-T2) patients after SCS implantation is different after a personalized biopsychosocial rehabilitation program specifically targeting return to work (RTW) compared with usual care.
