There are about 10004 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Brazil. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is spreading worldwide and has become a public health emergency of major international concern. Currently, no specific drugs or vaccines are available. This study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of natural killer cells patients with COVID-19.
Mind-body intervention as a complementary and integrative treatment for compulsive sexual behavior disorder. The hypothesis is that participants with CSBD, after being submitted to the protocol of the mind-body intervention group in relation to those submitted to the intervention protocol Shan of the control group, present less severe sexual compulsiveness.
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has a relevant role in COVID-19, as the virus will enter host's cells via the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2); RAS disequilibrium might also play a key role in the modulation of the inflammatory response that characterizes the lung involvement. Angiotensin-(1-7) is a peptide that could be altered in COVID-19 patient and its supplementation may potentially helpful in this setting.
This is an observational study of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (CIPN) patients to be investigated prospectively in order to assess responsiveness of a set of outcome measures in an international multi-center study.
This is a Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of EDP-938 in HCT recipients with acute RSV infection and symptoms of URTI.
This study evaluates and rehabilitates the cognitive functions of attention, memory, visual perception, language, and executive by the mentalPlus® digital game of COVID-19 surviving patients after remission of symptoms.
A pragmatic superiority randomized controlled trial comparing Telepsychoeducation plus personalized videos vs. Telepsychoeducation without personalized videos for the prevention of future emotional distress in professionals and students from essential services with low to moderate levels of emotional distress in Brazil. Note: This study was approved by the Ethics and Research Committee of the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre and is originally registered at Plataforma Brasil, a Brazilian study registration platform (under CAAE: 30608420.5.0000.5327). Recruitment began in May 28th 2020.
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is the most common overuse injury of the lower limb, its prevalence is around 20% in general population, and women are more likely to develop PFP compared to men. PFP may develop as a result of increased pressure and joint stress due to an reduction in contact area in the patellofemoral joint. The excessive dynamic knee valgus is an important contributor to patella misalignment and for the increasing of laterally directed forces on the patella, and restriction in ankle dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM) has been previously associated with excessive dynamic knee valgus. Although the evidence shows that strengthening exercises for the quadriceps and gluteus promote improvement of knee pain and function, there is a lack of studies that investigate if targeted interventions for improvement ankle dorsiflexion may promote additional benefits in knee pain and function when performed in combination with strengthening exercises. Thus, the aimed of this study is analyze the addition effect of calf stretching and ankle mobilization to quadriceps and gluteus strengthening on knee pain and function in women with PFP who display ankle dorsiflexion restriction.
PATIENTS WHO ARE ADMITTED TO HOSPITALIZATION IN HCOR AND WHO HAVE THE CONFIRMED DIAGNOSIS OF CORONA VIRUS, WILL BE ASKED TO CONSENT TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS STUDY THAT INTENDS TO STUDY THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE REMOTE INTERCESSION PRAYER IN COMBATING THIS DISEASE.
When it comes to cardiovascular diseases, surgical or clinical treatment can be cited, and cardiac surgery is considered a complex and large treatment where it involves important organic repercussions that alter the physiological and hemodynamic mechanisms of patients, which can lead to a critical state postoperatively, leading to possible complications that require intensive care at that time. Respiratory complications usually occur frequently in the postoperative period of these surgeries, causing a functional lung capacity to decrease by up to 20%, which may result in atelectasis, pneumonia, pleural effusion, among others. For this reason, physiotherapy usually plays an important role in the treatment of these patients, as it helps to reduce or treat these complications, in addition to promoting motor rehabilitation of patients before myocardial revascularization surgery. For this reason, this study aims to compare the effect of conventional physiotherapy techniques with the management of thoracoabdominal rebalancing in postoperative patients of coronary artery bypass graft. This is a randomized pilot trial in which patients who underwent coronary artery bypass surgery at the Institute of Cardiology of Rio Grande do Sul participate in the study. Patients selected for the control group (conventional physiotherapy) will be exposed to respiratory physiotherapy techniques such as vibrocompression, passive manual expiratory therapy, acceleration of expiratory flow, fractional inspiration in times, diaphragmatic breaths and aspiration when necessary, and patients selected for the intervention group, will appear on the management of thoracoabdominal rebalancing as abdominal supports and / or in the ileo-costal space, inspiratory aid, release of the scapular waist, thoracic swing, release of the pectoralis major and deltoid muscles together with aspiration, if necessary.
