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 evaluate the efficacy and safety of OMA102 1 mg and OMA102 2 mg versus placebo in the treatment of female pattern hair loss.
The purpose of this prospective study is to compare treatment outcomes and the quality of life of skeletal Class III patients treated with conventional fixed appliances and aligners undergoing Surgery-first approach. Data will be collected through validated questionnaires: OQLQ (Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire), OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile), SF-36 (Medical Outcomes Study 36 - Item Short-Form Health Survey) and IOTN (Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need).
This is a national retrospective cohort study with internet-based recruitment which intends to enroll 1,694 adult patients with COVID-19 diagnosis during the SARS-CoV-2 omicron wave in Brazil. Participants with confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 after january 2022 will be evaluated in order to assess incidence, potential risk factors and impact of post COVID-19 condition according to the WHO definition on health-related quality of life and other relevant patient-centered outcomes.
This clinical study aims to investigate the impact of a topical hyaluronic acid (HA) gel on postoperative pain and wound healing at palatal donor sites in patients undergoing mucogingival procedures involving a de-epithelialized gingival graft (DGG) from the palate. The study design is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, clinical trial, conducted in a single center, with 30 subjects aged 18-70 years.
The goal of this diagnostic study is to validate estimation of inspiratory muscle pressure by an artificial intelligence algorithm compared to the gold standard, the measure from an esophageal catheter balloon, in patients under assisted mechanical ventilation. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Are inspiratory muscle pressure estimates from an artificial intelligence algorithm accurate when compared to the direct measure from an esophageal balloon? Participants will be monitored with an esophageal balloon and with an artificial intelligence algorithm simultaneously, with inspiratory muscle pressure estimation during assisted mechanical ventilation with decremental levels of pressure support.
Through a randomized, crossover, triple-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, 15 physically inactive hypertensive women will participate a 8-day trial, each with two intervention protocols: 1) placebo and 2) beetroot; in which will ingest beet juice with or without NO3 in its composition with a 8-day washout interval.
A Clinical Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Leriglitazone in Adults Male Subjects with Cerebral Adrenoleukodystrophy.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a recurrent, functional disorder characterized by abdominal pain and discomfort, changes in bowel habits and gastrointestinal symptoms such as distension and sensation of abdominal inflammation, incomplete evacuation, urgency and tenesmus. In addition to gastrointestinal symptoms, patients with IBS often experience a wide range of other problems, such as non-abdominal pain, psychological symptoms, poor quality of life, and difficulties in carrying out activities of daily living. Studies carried out with probiotics have shown that their administration can be effective in the prevention and treatment of IBS. Our objective is to develop a probiotic product (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus paracasei, Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium bifidum e Lactobacillus rhamnosus) is safe and effective in reducing symptoms caused by IBS, as well as improving quality of life. In the present study, 114 volunteers of both genders will be included, randomly distributed into two groups: Test group (n=57): Volunteers supplemented with the probiotic product (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus paracasei, Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium bifidum e Lactobacillus rhamnosus- Final concentration: 1 x 1010 CFU/day). Placebo Group (n=57): Volunteers supplemented with placebo. The study will last 90 days and will have 3 visits to apply the proposed questionnaires.
This multicenter, prospective, interventional trial is designed to assess the outcome of subjects with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) that are randomized to treatment with either genicular artery embolization (GAE) using Embosphere Microspheres or steroid injection over a period of 24 months.
Chronic pain is a global public health problem, which intensifies even more in the obese population, reaching about 33% of these patients. Among the topography, chronic knee pain affects 80%, constituting an important cause of disability and decreased quality of life. In addition, in grade 3 obesity, also called morbid obesity, in which bariatric surgery is already indicated, knee pain makes it difficult or prevents participation in the pre-habilitation program that includes physical therapy through therapeutic exercises with the aim of reducing postoperative complications. In this sense, a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial will be conducted with the objective of evaluating the effect of photobiomodulation (PBM) on pain and functionality of obese patients with chronic knee pain who are in a prehabilitation program for bariatric surgery, discussing its role as an analgesic therapy and modifier of peripheral and central sensitization mechanisms of the pain pathway. PBM is a safe treatment option, with no undesirable effects and low cost. The primary outcomes will be pain intensity, through visual analogue scale, and Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) questionnaire, validated version for Portuguese - Brazil. Secondary outcomes will be pressure pain threshold and rolling pinch maneuver measured by digital algometer. Other exploratory outcomes will be 6-minute walk test, knee range of motion, SF-36 quality of life questionnaire. There will be 2 groups: an intervention group (photobiomodulation associated with standard physiotherapy treatment) and another placebo group (device turned off associated with the same standard physiotherapy treatment). The application sites will be knees and lumbar paravertebral 2 times a week for 12 weeks. The dosimetric standards will be 4J/point in the knees and 3J/point in the lumbar. The results obtained will be statistically analyzed and later published in a scientific journal.
