Filter by:The investigators designed this prospective, randomized control study to confirm the efficacy and safety of methylene blue - mediated photodynamic therapy for diabetic lower limb ulcer and to explore its mechanism.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of vedolizumab intravenous IV as induction and maintenance treatment in Chinese participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).
Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a worldwide burden in the management of patients with diabetes. Peripheral neuropathy has a key role in the physiopathology of DFU. Others factors as skin vulnerability to plantar pressure, glycation of skin protein, articular rigidity, vascular component and abnormal foot plantar pressure are also important to take into account. The aim of the study is to assess prospectively different factors involved in DFU pathogenesis notably the neurovascular response to non noxious pressure.
The MANUS Trial aims to examine the safety, feasibility and potential efficacy of intramuscularly injected allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells as treatment for digital ulcers of systemic sclerosis.
We analyzed the diversity of the fungal and bacterial within colon mucosa between patients with different degree of inflammation of Ulcerative Colitis.
Ulcerative colitis patients treated with Infliximab (IFX) in deep remission after at least 12 months of treatment will be randomized to continue IFX or to stop IFX and start Azathioprine (AZA). Each patient will be followed for 12 months.
The objective of this Bayesian Adaptive trial is to compare a control group versus a comprehensive ulcer healing protocol. The latter involves a combination of compressive therapy, miokinetic drainage and muscle strengthening for the entire lower extremity pump among patients with lower extremity venous ulcers. The investigators hypothesized that the combined therapy will have a higher closure rate as well as lower time to closure.
Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of a device with LU3103209 compound versus the same device, free of LU3103209 compound, in the local management of DFUs.
The AIM of this study is to investigate whether the FMT success rate in active UC patients can be increased by intensive donor pre-screening, anaerobic preparation of the FMT and by repeated FMT. The investigators will start a national multi-centre double-blind randomized sham-controlled trial in April 2017 at 6 hospitals in Belgium and 2 in The Netherlands. They will randomly allocate 108 patients with active ulcerative colitis (Mayo score 4-10, endoscopic Mayo score 2 or 3) in a 1:1 ratio, using a pre-established randomization list, to either 'superdonor' faecal microbiota transplantation or autologous fecal microbiota transplantation (=sham). Each patient will receive 4 FMT's. At baseline FMT will be performed during sigmoidoscopy. At week 1, 2 and 3, the FMT will be administered through rectal instillation. Each FMT will be derived from one donor. Donors will be pre-selected based on a species richness and abundance of taxa of interest. The primary outcome will be steroid-free clinical and endoscopic remission at week 8 (Mayo score ≤2, all subscores ≤ 1, and ≥1 point reduction in endoscopy subscore). Fecal, blood and mucosal samples and questionnaires will be collected at different time points. 16S rRNA stool analysis will be performed to assess the microbial changes after FMT.
The research aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of that mesalazine with hydrocortisone sodium succinate for the induction of clinical remission during a 4-week double-blind treatment period in active UC (define as total Mayo score of greater than or equal to 4 and less than or equal to 10). A total of 528 patients will be randomly divided into three group, one will receive mesalazine 4g with hydrocortisone sodium succinate 100mg enema, and the other two group will respectively to receive mesalazine 4g and hydrocortisone sodium 100mg one times daily for 4 weeks. The end of the study for every patient is the improvement of main symptoms.The primary endpoint is the clinical remission after 2 and 4 weeks double-blind treatment, defined on the basis of a total Mayo score ≤ 2 points, with no subscore > 1 point. The secondary endpoint are endoscopic mucosal healing at week 2 and 4 of double-blind period, defined as an absolute subscore for endoscopy portion of the Mayo score of 0 point and the change from baseline in Quality of Life at week 4 of double-blind period based on the IBDQ.
