There are about 36818 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in China. 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.
In China, pediatric tumors are the second leading cause of death in children. Radiotherapy is critical to the treatment of pediatric cancer, with about one-third of patients requiring it and nearly 50% for certain cancers, but young age and immature cognitive abilities pose challenges for precise positioning, leading to reliance on sedatives such as propofol or chloral hydrate, which pose health risks. Radiotherapy technicians are exploring new methods such as psychological interventions, but these methods are challenging for children aged 0-4, who account for a high proportion of pediatric cancer cases in China. Therefore, new methods for children aged 0-4 are urgently needed.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of a community health management program for middle-aged and elderly patients with dry eye disease (DED). By comparing the community-based health management plan with conventional treatment, the study aims to determine the impact on eye health and quality of life.
The aim of this study is to establish a real-world clinical neuroimmune disease research cohort, to follow up and observe the prognosis of patients with different subtypes and subgroups, and to provide support for the treatment, early warning, and outcome prediction research of neuroimmune diseases.
This study is a prospective, multicenter, real-world study. There are four cohorts. Cohorts 1-3 include second-line, posterior-line, and neoadjuvant colorectal cancer patients, respectively. Cohort 4 include patients with the exception of those with pancreatic and colorectal cancer. As this study is a real-world investigation, treatment procedures, visit schedules, and examinations will be based on the routine clinical practice of physicians. Through the above cohort, the efficacy and safety of irinotecan liposome are comprehensively observed.
explore objective indicators of the efficacy of natural psychotherapy in the treatment of disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorder
The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of myoelectric biofeedback therapy on upper limb function in elderly patients with cerebral infarction, and to analyze the adjustment of stroke condition and quality of life.The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does myoelectric biofeedback therapy promote the restoration of upper limb function in elderly patients with cerebral infarction? 2. What medical problems do participants have with myoelectric biofeedback therapy?
Dementia is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by acquired cognitive impairment as its core manifestation. The most common type of dementia is Alzheimer's Disease (AD), also known as "Senile Dementia," accounting for 60-80% of all dementia cases. Currently, there are approximately 10 million AD patients in China, with the number showing an increasing trend year by year, imposing a heavy economic and caregiving burden on families and society. Studies have shown that AD has a clinically silent period of 15 to 20 years (SCD\MCI), where the risk of developing dementia is ten times higher than that of healthy elderly individuals. Nearly 50% of MCI patients progress to dementia within 5 years, and about 14.1% of SCD patients develop dementia within the same timeframe. Early detection, diagnosis, and intervention are currently the most effective strategies for preventing and treating AD. Therefore, this study aims to verify the intervention effect of integrated cognitive intervention in high-risk populations for senile dementia (SCD, MCI) based on the cognitive rehabilitation model through randomized controlled trials, and to analyze attrition rates, participation rates, etc., which have good research and application value.
Alzheimer's Disease, AD is a type of neurofibrillary tangles formed by the deposition of beta amyloid proteins within the nervous system cells and excessive phosphorylation of extracellular Tau proteins, NFTs are the main pathological features of central nervous system degeneration, also known as senile dementia. In addition, synaptic plasticity damage and neuroinflammation also play important roles in the progression of AD. Neurosynapses are the sites where neurons interact with each other in terms of function, and are also crucial for neuronal information transmission and communication. Synapses are the fundamental units in the brain, and synaptic activity can stimulate the maturation of mushroom like dendritic spines and form new synapses, enabling synaptic strength to adapt to changes in the internal and external environment, thereby playing an important role in learning and memory. Previous studies have shown that synaptic activity interruption and synaptic loss can already be detected in the AD brain, especially in the early stages. Multiple studies have shown a higher correlation between synaptic disorders characterized by synaptic loss and decreased synaptic activity and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease compared to age-related plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Therefore, understanding the potential mechanisms of synaptic disorders will contribute to the development of early treatment strategies for AD. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a type of small non coding RNA with a length of approximately 22 nucleotides. Their main function is to silence target genes at the post transcriptional level and inhibit the translation process of their proteins. MiRNAs are involved in many physiological processes and pathological pathways, including development, tumorigenesis, and heart disease. Recently, people have also studied the abnormal regulatory role of miRNAs in AD synaptic disorders. Some miRNAs enriched in the brain, such as miR-124, MiR-132 is abnormally expressed in the AD brain, mediating synaptic plasticity damage. However, most of the miRNAs mentioned above are not directly related to synaptic activity, and their regulation of AD synaptic damage is likely to be a broad-spectrum effect. At present, there are 12 miRNAs closely related to synaptic plasticity that have been identified. By detecting changes in miRNAs closely related to synaptic plasticity in peripheral blood of AD patients and healthy volunteers, and exploring their relationship with the severity of AD lesions, it may provide new directions for early diagnosis of AD. The purpose of this study is to: (1) detect the expression levels of miRNAs closely related to synaptic plasticity in the peripheral blood of healthy volunteers and AD patients, and identify the miRNAs with the greatest differences; (2) Analyze the relationship between the expression levels of the aforementioned miRNAs in the peripheral blood of AD patients and the severity of the disease; (3) Analyze the relationship between the expression levels of the aforementioned miRNAs in the peripheral blood of AD patients and the commonly used neuropsychiatric scale scores. We plan to clarify the changes in peripheral blood miRNAs and their relationship with the severity of AD through case-control studies, in order to provide new directions for early diagnosis of AD.
Bladder cancer is the ninth most common malignant tumor worldwide, characterized by high malignancy and poor prognosis. We intend to develop a CT-based tumor budding predictive model for bladder cancer using deep learning algorithms. This model will facilitate preoperative assessment of patient conditions, enabling the formulation of more precise and personalized treatment plans.
Intrapartum ultrasound monitoring is to be compared with conventional labor monitoring to clarify the accuracy of this technology, and then provide a basis for later related research.
