There are about 9297 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Switzerland. 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.
This is an observational (non-interventional) study, carried out in an outpatient setting, which involves a blood sampling. The primary objective of this study is to confirm the association between the EDIT-B® editing signature and early unipolar or bipolar differentiation. Results of this research may provide an aid to early diagnosis and guide clinical practice towards individualized treatment.
This was a retrospective, non-interventional, registry study based on secondary electronic medical record (EMR) data collected in Helsinki and Uusimaa hospital district (HUS data lake), hospital district of Southwest Finland (VSSHP data lake) and Pirkanmaa hospital district (PSHP data lake) as a part of their routine clinical practice. Social Insurance Institution of Finland (SII; reimbursed drug purchases) was utilized in this study to complement the medication data. The metastatic melanoma patients were stratified by first-line treatment and by hospital district.
This is a single centre, single dose, single-arm, open-label, palatability study. The aim of the present study is to investigate the palatability of the newly developed Tachipirina® 120 mg/5 mL oral suspension with strawberry flavour. The study will be conducted in paediatric volunteers that represent the target population for this product.
During two none subsequent natural menstrual cycles healthy female participants will be subjected every second day to blood sampling and 3D-ultrasound examinations. Together with four other key hormones the concentration of AMH (anti-Muellerian Hormone) will be measured in the serum.
The goal of this retrospective longitudinal observational study is to compare the effects of physical and mental performance as well as quality of life in patients with neurological and musculoskeletal disorders. The main question it aims to answer is: Do very old patients benefit in a similar way from inpatient rehabilitation like younger patients? Data from about 2000 patients will be retrospectively analyzed. Functional Independence Measurement (FIM), Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), EuroQol 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) and Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) were recorded on admission and discharge. Researchers will compare the age group 75 to 84 and 85 to 99 to see if physical and mental performance as well as quality of life will improve.
The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of training with a personal, portable laparoscopic endo-trainer (PLET) on residents' laparoscopic skills. All participants were randomised to either a home- or hospital-based PLET training group and surgical skill performance was assessed using five laparoscopic exercises. Endpoints consisted ofsubjective and objective assessment ratings as well as exercise time and qualitative data up to 12 weeks. The primary outcome was the difference in exercise time and secondary outcomes included performance scores as well as qualitative data.
This non-interventional study (NIS) was a retrospective chart review analyzing existing data from patients participating in the asciminib MAP.
This was a retrospective cohort study to assess the incidence rate of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) among psoriasis (PsO) patients newly initiated on secukinumab or any biologics/apremilast (small molecule). The analysis was performed in two databases, IBM® MarketScan® database: Commercial Claims and Encounters (CCAE) and Medicare Supplemental Beneficiaries (MDCR) from 01 January 2010 to 30 June 2021 and BADBIR from 01 January 2016 to 01 September 2021.
In a similar study, the investigators demonstrated that shoulder stabilization could allow the brain to partially "recover". Patients with shoulder apprehension underwent clinical and fMRI examination before and one year after shoulder stabilization surgery. Clinical examination showed a significant improvement in postoperative shoulder function compared with preoperative. Coherently, results showed a decreased activation in the left pre-motor cortex postoperatively, demonstrating that stabilization surgery induced improvements both at the physical and at the brain levels, one year postoperatively. Most interestingly, right-frontal pole and right-occipital cortex activity was associated with good outcome in shoulder performance.
A retro-prospective case-control Swiss study was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic performance of measuring an antibody index (AI) for intrathecal synthesis of specific anti-Treponema pallidum (T. pallidum) IgG for the diagnosis of neurosyphilis.
