There are about 1933 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Colombia. 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 observational study is to know the prevalence of PCOS among economically productive and reproductive age women from Medellín and the Valle de Aburrá, Colombia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the phenotypic distribution of PCOS detected in women seeking medical attention as a requirement for employment in Medellín and the Valle de Aburrá, Colombia? 2. What is the effect of environmental factors, such as geographical location and diet, and biological factors (such as obesity and ethnicity/race) on the prevalence and phenotype of PCOS in this populatión? Participants will undergo anthropometric measurements and physical examination for hirsutism, acne, alopecia, acanthosis nigricans, and thyroid enlargement. During the initial visit, a transvaginal or transabdominal pelvic ultrasonography will be performed. A sample of venous blood will be collected in plain tubes for serum cryopreservation and for immediate glucose estimation. Some participants will be rescheduled for a second evaluation visit for additional assessment when they have a possible PCOs.
The objective of this clinical trial is to determine if a dietary intervention for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation in older adults in the city of Medellin is effective (works well), focusing on the population in geriatric care centers and institutions. The goal is to obtain scientific evidence that allows determining the efficacy of this intervention for the non-pharmacological treatment of constipation in the elderly. The main question to be answered is: "Is a dietary product designed with psyllium, chia, and flaxseed a reliable and effective treatment for managing constipation in older adults?" The intervention and follow-up period for the study has been set at 6 weeks (45 days). During this time, participants will receive orally, once a day (every 24 hours), 1 tablespoon (20g) of the product - FIBNUTRITION - (a natural food product rich in fiber, with its main components being flaxseed, chia, and psyllium), mixed in an 8oz glass (approximately 250ml) of room temperature water using a blender (following the manufacturer's instructions for use). The product will be provided to each patient in the morning before breakfast. The proposed research corresponds to an intervention study, specifically a randomized, controlled, double-blind, multicenter clinical trial. The researchers will compare an intervention group (dietary intervention) with a control group (placebo: a similar product that does not contain fiber or components that can alter the intestinal tract) to observe if there is a difference of at least 40% in the prevalence of satisfactory relief of constipation symptoms (desired primary effect criterion) between the two groups.
The present study is a prospective multicenter study consisting of a cohort of patients with prenatal or intraoperative diagnosis of PAS, evaluating the clinical outcomes of the group of patients found in each category of the topographic classification. In addition, an approach to evaluate the acceptability of this classification among the obstetrician-gynecologists of the participating medical centers will be included.

Evaluate the implementation feasibility and acceptability of the 9-week Spanish-translated mindfulness app, Wakeful, in a mixed Colombian young adult cancer patient sample. - Aim 3. Translate and record professional Spanish-language voice overs for all new STU00210628 content for future implementation.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of inavolisib in combination with Phesgo (pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and rHuPH20 injection for subcutaneous use) compared with placebo in combination with Phesgo, as maintenance therapy, after induction therapy in participants with previously untreated HER2-positive advanced breast cancer (ABC).
Study is to provide evidence comparing AQUACEL® Ag+ Extra™ versus Cutimed® Sorbact® in the progression of wounds towards healing
This is a descriptive, ambispective, and single-site study in Colombia, which is designed to evaluate the adherence, persistence, and clinical outcomes (defined as the patient's disease activity and functional status) of RA patients within 40 weeks after the patient administered the first injection of the etanercept medication through the Smartclic® device. The study data seeks from medical records containing the Smartclic device injection log and pharmacy claims database available from an institution specialized in rheumatological care. The study will only include records of patients treated or starting treatment with etanercept and whose indicated autoinjection device has been Smartclic.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety, efficacy and utility of a medical device called the Cook® Venous Valve System. This device, percutaneously placed in the leg, is meant to help the blood flow correctly through the veins in the leg.
The purpose of this study is to learn how well efinopegdutide works compared to placebo in people who have non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Researchers will also learn about the safety and benefit of efinopegdutide and how well people tolerate the medicine. The main goal of the study is to compare how many people taking efinopegdutide or placebo stop showing evidence of NASH without liver scarring getting worse.
