NCT ID: NCT02468388 Completed - Re-mineralization Clinical Trials

Re-mineralization Effects of Sugar Free Chewing Gum Sweetened With Different Sugar-substitutes

Start date: October 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical effect of chewing gum containing maltitol, on re-mineralization of early caries following daily chewing for 6 months by school children, compared to a xylitol gum, gum base and a no gum group.

NCT ID: NCT02443454 Completed - Aortic Stiffness Clinical Trials

Short and Long-term Results of Arterial Stiffness and Central Aortic Pressure After Kidney Transplantation

PWV/CP/KTx
Start date: May 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Central blood pressure and pulse wave velocity were measured using a Complior Analyse device in Short and Long-term after kidney transplantation.

NCT ID: NCT02443376 Completed - Clinical trials for Complication of Hemodialysis

The Effects of Hemodialysis Session on Vascular Stiffness

PWV/CP/HD
Start date: May 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Central blood pressure and pulse wave velocity were measured using a Complior Analyse device before and immediately after the end of the dialysis session.

NCT ID: NCT02419040 Completed - Shoulder Pain Clinical Trials

Treatment of Calcific Tendinitis of the Rotator Cuff

Start date: April 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of removal of the calcification in calcific tendinitis of the shoulder (supraspinatus and/or infraspinatus tendon) by aspiration with a needle and syringe (barbotage) and a corticosteroid injection is more effective than corticosteroid or sham injection alone.

NCT ID: NCT02362555 Completed - Neck Pain Clinical Trials

The Effect of Nuchal Ligament Calcification on Cervical Function in Patients With Neck Pain

Start date: April 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Ossification of nuchal ligament often observed in patient with chronic neck pain, previous study showed ossification of nuchal ligament was associated with cervical spondylosis and radiculopathy. Patient with chronic neck pain was divided into two groups according to the presence of ossification of nuchal ligament on cervical radiographic images. This study is to evaluate and compare the neck function including range of motion, neck strength and pressure pain threshold, radiography characteristics and functional disability between two groups.

NCT ID: NCT02241109 Completed - Clinical trials for Aortic Valve Stenosis

Predicting Aortic Stenosis Progression by Measuring Serum Calcification Propensity

PASP
Start date: September 30, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Aortic stenosis is the most common valvular heart disease and an important public-health problem. Surgical or interventional aortic valve replacement are based on symptoms and measures of valvular and ventricular function using echocardiography.There is no uniform pattern of progression. Instead, marked differences not only between individuals, but also during the time course of the disease can be observed. Several prospective studies have been performed to enhance the predictability of disease behavior. Individually it is still prone to large errors and hard to predict aortic stenosis progression. Therefore, in patients with aortic sclerosis without severe stenosis, it is desirable to find a strong predictor of rapid disease progression. This would allow anticipating cardiovascular deterioration by identifying individuals at particular risk. Study Hypothesis In patients with aortic sclerosis, increased serum calcification propensity, as measured by the T50-Test, is related to the amount of stenosis progression in one year.

NCT ID: NCT02224144 Completed - Clinical trials for End Stage Renal Disease

Bone Mass and Strength After Kidney Transplantation

Start date: August 18, 2014
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to test whether active vitamin D (calcitriol) protects bones from weakening and protects blood vessels from calcium deposits over the first year of kidney transplantation.

NCT ID: NCT02190396 Completed - Clinical trials for Vitamin D Deficiency

Vitamin D Deficiency and Placental Calcification in Low-risk Obstetric Population - Are They Related?

Start date: March 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Maternal vitamin D deficiency has been suggested to influence fetal and neonatal health. The role of placenta in vitamin D regulation is known but alteration of Vitamin D levels at placental pathologies is unknown. Placental calcification is usually thought to be a physiological aging process. Nevertheless, it can be a pathological change resulting from the effects of environmental factors on the placenta. The aim of the investigators study was to evaluate the relationship between placental calcification and maternal and cord blood 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 [25(OH)D] and calcium concentrations in low-risk obstetric population at term and their consequences.

NCT ID: NCT02184442 Completed - Clinical trials for Calcific Aortic Stenosis

The PARTNER II Trial: Placement of AoRTic TraNscathetER Valves - PII B

PARTNERII B
Start date: March 9, 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the SAPIEN XTâ„¢ THV with the associated delivery system for inoperable patients with severe symptomatic native aortic stenosis.

NCT ID: NCT02165527 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Bone Length Measurement

Start date: November 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine if Lunar iXDA scanning with the use of a computer software program can make accurate measurements of the length of leg bones compared to conventional x-rays.
