There are about 1645 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Czech Republic. 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 aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of hyperinsulinemia and postprandial changes in plasma glucose and lipids concentrations on the endothelial function together with other metabolic parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and in healthy subjects. Hypothesis: Different changes in endothelial function to acute in vivo induced hyperinsulinemia and after the meal test will be found in patients with T2D compared to healthy subjects. A significant relationships between insulin sensitivity, selected adipokines intramyocellular fat content, hepatic fat content and high energy phosphates in soleus muscle will be documented in both groups.
Water-aided insertion of the colonoscope has been repeatedly proven to beneficial in terms of lower discomfort and need for sedation during colonoscopy. Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) undergo repeated colonoscopy in course of their disease. According to our preliminary experience, water immersion could be beneficial while scoping these patients. As far as the investigators know, water-aided colonoscopy has never been studied in this indication. Results of our trial might support use of water-aided colonoscopy in common practice and decrease associated discomfort in IBD patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of long-term treatment with lumacaftor in combination with ivacaftor in people 12 years and older with Cystic Fibrosis.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Benralizumab reduces the number of asthma exacerbations in patients who remain uncontrolled on high doses of ICS-LABA.
This study will evaluate the effects of renal denervation using externally focused therapeutic ultrasound with external targeting and tracking on patients with refractory hypertension.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of CNTO6785 in participants with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) despite methotrexate (MTX) therapy.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of aclidinium bromide/formoterol fumarate and salmeterol/fluticasone propionate in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
This study aims to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of single and repeated doses of fixed combination of dexketoprofen trometamol (DKP) and tramadol hydrochloride (TRAM) in comparison to the single agents (and placebo for the single dose phase only) Approximately 600 male and female patients presenting moderate to severe pain after an elective primary hip arthroplasty are eligible to be randomised provided that they experience moderate to severe pain on the day after surgery.
A great number of different suture techniques and suture materials are in use in order to reconstitute the abdominal wall integrity, but there is no surgical gold standard for abdominal wall closure until today. Various Meta-Analyses and randomized controlled trials have been performed, which compared non-absorbable or long-term absorbable versus rapid absorbable suture materials or monofilament versus multifilament suture materials, or continuous versus interrupted suture techniques respectively. This lack of evidence has the following outcome: burst abdomen is observed in 1-3% of patients within the first days after a laparotomy. The incidence of abdominal wall hernias 12 months postoperatively is estimated to be up to 20% (range 9 to 20%) . Wound infections develop in 3 to 21% of patients undergoing a median laparotomy within the first 30 days. At present most surgeons favour monofilament long-absorbable continuous sutures as the most suitable material for closing abdominal wounds after midline laparotomy.
The objective of this investigation is to evaluate whether pulmonary vein isolation using the VytronUS ablation system is safe and effective acutely and at 3 months.
