There are about 243 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Cyprus. 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 study's purpose is to measure the treatment response from efgartigimod PH20 SC compared with placebo in participants with Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy (IIM). Participants with the IIM subtypes of dermatomyositis (DM), immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM), or certain other subtypes of polymyositis (PM; including antisynthetase syndrome [ASyS]) will be included in the study. Treatment response will be measured by Total improvement score (TIS). Additional information can be found on https://myositis-study.com/.
The main objective of the Project is to create a GATEKEEPER, that connects healthcare providers, businesses, entrepreneurs, elderly citizens and the communities they live in, in order to originate an open, trust-based arena for matching ideas, technologies, user needs and processes, aimed at ensuring healthier independent lives for the ageing populations. By 2022, GATEKEEPER will be embodied in an open source, European, standard-based, interoperable and secure framework available to all developers, for creating combined digital solutions for personalised early detection and interventions that (i) harness the next generation of healthcare and wellness innovations; (ii) cover the whole care continuum for elderly citizens, including primary, secondary and tertiary prevention, chronic diseases and co-morbidities; (iii) straightforwardly fit "by design" with European regulations, on data protection, consumer protection and patient protection (iv) are subjected to trustable certification processes; (iv) support value generation through the deployment of advanced business models based on the VBHC paradigm. GATEKEEPER will demonstrate its value by scaling up, during a 42-month work plan, towards the deployment of solutions that will involve ca 40.000 elderly citizens, supply and demand side (authorities, institutions, companies, associations, academies) in 8 regional communities, from 7 EU member states. Recently 3 Asian pilots have been added as a result of the Open Calls. The achievement of the overall objective is supported by the following, among others, specific objective: To execute a series of PILOTS to demonstrate the effect, benefit, value and scalability of the GATEKEEPER solutions around REFERENCE USE CASES COVERING PRIMARY, SECONDARY and TERTIARY PREVENTION, initially deployed in 8 regions of 7 European countries. The Cyprus pilot mainly focuses on the early detection of the condition worsening of cancer and dementia patients by monitoring whether the use of technology can trigger appropriate management, thereby reducing the need for higher acuity care, and even, at times, improving survival by supporting demand-driven solutions through high-quality health mobile systems.
This study aimed to examine whether mindfulness skills training can help to reduce experiential avoidance and anxiety level. This study investigated whether the training delivery methods (audio-guided mindfulness exercise or virtual reality-based mindfulness exercise) differ in terms of changing general experiential avoidance and anxiety symptoms.
This study aimed to investigate whether Acceptance and Commitment Therapy/Training would be helpful to reduce weight-related experiential avoidance among individuals who reported weight concern
The present study is designed to reveal effectiveness of hyaluronidase and dexamethasone on reduction of postoperative edema, pain, trismus, and infection. For this purpose, 60 participants with symmetrical mandibular wisdom teeth enrolled the present study. All measurements and evaluations were performed before and 1, 2, 3, and 7 days later the operation.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of long-term carbohydrate periodization protocols on sleep architecture, sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, physical performance, body composition, gut microbiome, and miRNA in healthy trained individuals.
Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm (BPDCN) is a very rare hematologic malignancy. Despite recent advances, at present there is no consensus on the optimal treatment of BPDCN. The optimal therapy of disease remains to be determined, and due to the rarity of cases, there is a need for international collaboration to collect data on BPDCN clinical presentations, diagnostics, treatment regimens and outcomes. Therefore, the objectives of this study are: (1) to build a large database of patients with BPDCN, (2) to investigate the characteristics and outcome of the disease with different treatment regimens, (3) to evaluate prognostic factors, and (4) to generate data-based prospective treatment recommendations.
The investigators propose to create a prospective Crohn Disease cohort, where patients receiving the most up-to-date therapies with a treat-to-target strategy, will be closely followed to characterize the progression of Crohn Disease by measuring the Lémann Index over time. The goal of the CROCO Study - "Crohn's Disease Cohort Study" is to promote a greater understanding of the long-term evolution of Crohn Disease , to describe prospectively the impact of different therapeutic strategies and develop accurate predictors of bowel disease damage and disability.
The present study is a 5-year follow-up of the Allergy Reduction Trial (A.R.T.) birth cohort study of 551 infants at high-risk for allergy. The A.R.T. 5-year follow-up study, aims to investigate the prolonged effect of each feeding regimen [formula-fed (exclusively or partially) with the partially hydrolyzed formula (pHF) or the standard formula (SF), or exclusively breastfed] within the first 6 months of life on the development of any allergic manifestations up to the age of 5 years. Allergic manifestations within this time period will include the presence of any of the following: atopic dermatitis, food allergies, respiratory allergies, urticaria, drug allergy and insect venom allergy. In addition, differences on growth (weight, height, BMI) will be examined.
Aim: The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of kinesio taping and sham taping in addition to self-stretching exercise on hyperkyphosis angle, neck pain and quality of life in elderly individuals with hyperkyphosis. Method: 60 elderly individuals with hyperkyphosis aged 60-85 years will be included in the study. Subjects will be divided inti three groups. Kinesio taping, sham taping and self-stretching exercise. The kinesio taping group will be given kinesio taping in addition to self stretching exercises. The second sham taping group will be given sham kinesio taping in addition to self stretching exercises. The third self-stretching group will be given a program consisting of stretching exercises for pectoral, erector spinae, latismus dorsi, multifidus, rhomboid and trapezius muscles. Individuals will be asked to do these exercises on their own for 15-20 minutes at home or in the office every day for four weeks. Before and after the study, the subjects will be test for the kyphosis angle will be evaluated with a flexible ruler and Scoliosis Research Society Outcome questionnaire (SRS22) will be used to evaluate spinal curvatures.The Neck Disability Questionnaire will be used to evaluate neck pain. The occiput-neck distance and mini mental test will be used in this srudy.
