Filter by:The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of eccentric strength training for shoulder abductors on force steadiness in subjects with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS).
Acute chest syndrome is a severe sickle cell disease complication in children requiring blood transfusion therapy to prevent acute respiratory failure and death. Nitric oxide is a potent vasodilator that could reverse pulmonary vascular occlusion and restore normal oxygenation. The randomized trial will test that hypothesis.
Which are the anthropometric parameters and/or of severity of the syndrome of apnea of sleep (SAS) which make it possible to anticipate occurred of vascular anomalies, anatomical and/or functional precociously found among patients SAS? Secondary objectives: 1. Which are the anthropometric parameters and/or of severity of SAS allowing to anticipate occurred of early of the cardiac function and/or rhythmic anomalies found among patients SAS? 2. Do there exist biological markers who allow to anticipate the early vascular lesions or the anomalies beginners of the cardiac function? 3. Which are the cardiovascular effects of a treatment of SAS by Continuous Positive Pressure (PC) after 3 to 6 months of treatment? 4. Do the identified early cardiovascular attacks and/or the biological anomalies make it possible to predict occurred of cardiovascular events in this population of patients carrying SAS (followed longitudinal at 5 years)?
Gut microflora-mucosal interactions may be involved in the pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of Duolac7S in changing the colonic microflora and improve the symptoms in IBS sufferers. In all, 64 patients with Rome III positive diarrhea type IBS will complete a 6-week multiple centre controlled clinical trial. Patients will be randomized to receive either 2 capsules/day Duolac7S or 2 capsules/day placebo. IBS symptoms will be monitored and scored according to Likert scale. Changes in faecal microflora, stool frequency and form, quality of life (QOL) scores will be also monitored.
The TReatment with ADP receptor iNhibitorS: Longitudinal Assessment of Treatment Patterns and Events after Acute Coronary Syndrome (TRANSLATE-ACS) study is a prospective, observational longitudinal study to evaluate the real world effectiveness and use of prasugrel and other ADP receptor inhibitor therapies among myocardial infarction (MI) participants treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) during the index hospitalization. Participant management and treatment decisions are at the discretion of the care team per routine clinical practice. Approximately 17,000 participants will be enrolled at approximately 350 sites in the United States. Follow-up will be conducted through 15 months in approximately 15,650 participants. TRANSLATE-ACS will complement the results of both randomized controlled clinical trials and current registries in addressing the real world treatment patterns and clinical outcomes for MI participants managed with PCI and initiated on ADP receptor inhibitor therapy. In addition to determining the effectiveness of prasugrel in comparison to other ADP receptor inhibitors, the study will also determine factors associated with initial ADP receptor inhibitor selection and longitudinal patterns of use, evaluate the safety, and describe and compare resource use and medical costs associated with ADP receptor inhibitors. Additionally, this study will generate a continuum of information from the inpatient to outpatient settings to provide a comprehensive picture of participant treatment and outcomes not currently available for novel ADP receptor inhibitors.
Metabolic syndrome is a highly prevalent condition characterized by visceral obesity, abnormalities of glucidic and lipid metabolism, and increased risk for cardiovascular events. Such findings appear to be associated with a decrease in insulin sensitivity. Management of metabolic syndrome is currently aimed at treating individual components of the disease without addressing this underlying pathophysiologic mechanism; this translates into multidrug regimens, high costs and patient compliance issues. Armolipid Plus (an association of berberine 500 mg, red yeast rice titled in 3 mg monacolin K,policosanol 10 mg,coenzyme Q10 2 mg,astaxanthin 0,5 mg,folic acid 0,2 mg) has been found to be effective at reducing blood cholesterol and triglycerides, and at improving endothelial function; subgroup analyses also suggested a benefit on indices of insulin resistance. Aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of Armolipid Plus on insulin sensitivity and on the diagnostic parameters of metabolic syndrome. 60 patients will be enrolled in this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial; active treatment will consist of Armolipid Plus (1 tbl qd). Primary end point will be the reduction of the insulin/glucose ratio, both after overnight fast (HOMA index) and after an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a dietary pattern based on crononutrition and dietary training, together with dietary and psychological control, can reduce the body weight, improve the oxidative and inflammatory state in subjects with diagnosed metabolic syndrome features and can reduce the prevalence of the Metabolic syndrome in the population.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of using salivary biomarkers to screen for complications of metabolic syndrome including prediabetes.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of erlotinib in high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients (with at least 10% of bone marrow blasts) ineligible for or having failed intensive chemotherapy and ineligible or after failure of treatment with a hypomethylating agent.
This study is intended to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose of a drug, OXi4503 (combretastatin A1 diphosphate, CA1P, OXiGENE), in patients with relapsed and refractory AML and MDS.
