Filter by:Up to 70% of obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery have obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). OSAS is responsible for laryngeal sensory impairment. As the afferent neural pathway involved in the initiation of cough is located in the laryngeal epithelium, cough reflex sensitivity may be decreased in obese OSAS patients. The researchers therefore conducted this study to determine the effect of OSAS associated with obesity on cough reflex sensitivity, assessed by cough reflex threshold to an inhaled irritant (citric acid).
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of AV608, a neurokinin 1 (NK-1) antagonist, in subjects with Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
Bone marrow failure syndromes (BMFS) are rare disorders characterized by dysfunctional hematopoietic stem cells, which give rise to all red and white blood cells. The deficiency of blood cells, or cytopenia, caused by this malfunction leads to an assortment of diseases and disorders, all of which are characterized as BMFS. Because these diseases are rare, conducting research on them is difficult, and standards of treatment for most BMFS have yet to be developed. This study will collect clinical and laboratory data from people with BMFS to identify the characteristics and biological markers associated with these diseases over time. This information will assist doctors and researchers to develop better therapies and diagnostic tests that will help improve the management of BMFS and cytopenias.
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) study in adults comparing immediate release ropinirole with extended release ropinirole over 12 weeks
Pioglitazone and rosiglitazone are used in the treatment of diabetic patients. Thiazolidinediones increase insulin sensitivity and show favorable effect blood glucose levels and lipid profiles. The effect of these two different thiazolidinediones on atherosclerotic and inflammatory markers has not been compared in prospective manner. The purpose of this prospective, randomized, open-label, crossover trial is to compare the effect of pioglitazone and rosiglitazone on atherosclerotic and inflammatory markers in patients with metabolic syndrome.
This randomized phase II trial studies azacitidine with or without entinostat to see how well they work compared to azacitidine alone in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Entinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving azacitidine together with entinostat may work better in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or acute myeloid leukemia.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to determine whether apixaban will be safe in people who have recently had unstable angina or a heart attack.
The aim of the study is to determine if plasma matrix-metalloproteinase activity can predict glaucoma in patients with OSAS and if the level of plasma matrix-metalloproteinase activity will decrease after one month of nCPAP-treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether deep brain stimulation is effective at reducing tic frequency and severity in adults with Tourette syndrome.
The primary objective of this trial is to assess the maintenance of efficacy of gabapentin enacarbil (GEn, XP13512) taken once daily in the long-term treatment of patients suffering from Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS).
