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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of yoga for patients with chronic low back pain and high risk of poor prognosis. The main question it aims to answer is: - In patients with back pain and high risk of poor prognosis, what is the effectiveness of yoga plus education on reducing pain and disability compared to a control group receiving education alone? A total of 110 patients with chronic low back pain and classified as high risk of poor prognosis according to the Orebro Musculoskeletal Pain Screening Questionnaire (i.e. score ≥ 50 points out of 100) will be recruited for this study. Participants will be randomized into two groups: yoga and control. The yoga group will receive a 3-month course of yoga program consisting of two sessions per week and 3 educational classes. The control group will receive 3 educational classes over a 12-week period. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline, at post-intervention (i.e. 3-months post randomization) and at 6-month follow up (i.e. 6-months post randomization).
This phase 2 study aim to investigate the effect of dobutamine in patients with sepsis/ septic shock after fluid resuscitation and with hypoperfusion (lactate and central venous oxygen saturation or prolonged capillary refill time) on renal function as compared with usual care.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of MK-0616 in adult participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. The primary hypothesis is that MK-0616 is superior to placebo on mean percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) at Week 24.
This is a Phase III open-label study to assess if camizestrant improves outcomes compared to standard adjuvant endocrine therapy for patients with ER+/HER2- early breast cancer with intermediate-high or high risk for disease recurrence who completed definitive locoregional therapy (with or without chemotherapy). The planned duration of treatment in either arm within the study will be 7 years.
TrAVeRse is a multicentre, open-label, randomised, Phase II study of AVR in treatment naïve MCL participants. The primary objective will be to assess the rate of MRD-negative CR at end of induction after completing 13 cycles of AVR. Participants achieving an MRD-negative CR at the end of AVR induction will be randomised to continued acalabrutinib or observation. Participants who progress during observation may receive retreatment with acalabrutinib
- The main goal of this prospective longitudinal observational study is to investigate the psychophysiological indicators by analyzing HRV, blood pressure, symptoms of anxiety and depression, eating behavior and quality of life during the follow-up of the general health status of patients with obesity undergoing the bariatric surgery by Roux-en-Y reconstruction reduction gastroplasty (GRYR) technique. - The main question it aims to answer is: Does bariatric surgery changes the variables studied (HRV, anxiety, depression, eating behavior, quality of life)? - Type of study: prospective longitudinal observational study - Participant population: 50 patients, both females and males, aged between 18 and 60 years, will be submitted to bariatric surgery with Roux-en-Y reconstruction reduction gastroplasty technique. Patients will be evaluated for five times: before the bariatric surgery and 3-6-12-24 months after the bariatric surgery.
Older adults have higher rates of emergency department admissions when compared to their younger counterparts. Mobility is the ability to move around but also encompasses the environment and the ability to adapt to it. Walking aids can be used to improve mobility and prevent falls. According to international guidelines, they must be available in Geriatric Emergency Department. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a program of training and provision of walking aids (WA), associated or not with telemonitoring, on mobility, quality of life, fear of falling, and risk of falls up to 3 months in older adults cared for in an emergency department.
The aim of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of immersive virtual reality on the static and dynamic balance and functionality of adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis after spinal correction surgery. Secondarily, the objective was: (1) to analyze whether treatment with immersive virtual reality interferes with the hospitalization time of the studied population in relation to the average expected time; (2) to evaluate the impact of the use of immersive virtual reality in relation to the pain reported by adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis in the postoperative period; (3) to evaluate the impact of the use of immersive virtual reality on the functionality and quality of life of the studied population. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomized into 2 groups - virtual reality group (GRV) and control group (GC). Both groups will be assessed for pain, static and dynamic balance, length of stay, functionality and quality of life. Patients belonging to the virtual reality group will receive the intervention, which will consist of physiotherapeutic procedures usually used in the hospital applied by the institution's physiotherapist, and therapy with immersive virtual reality. The control group will receive only the physiotherapy offered by the hospital.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Luspatercept vs epoetin alfa in the treatment of anemia in adults due to IPSS-R very low, low, intermediate-risk MDS in ESA-naïve participants who are non-transfusion dependent (NTD).
The best way for dental professionals act using dialogue methods and individual approaches in daily clinical practice to change behavioral is still inconclusive. Thus, the objective will be evaluate the effect of using motivational interviewing as part of the treatment of periodontitis in order to increase the adherence of adults to adequate oral health behavior.
