There are about 11304 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Denmark. 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 study was an open-label, randomized, multicenter, parallel, Phase 2a study in adolescents and adult patients with Tourette syndrome that aimed to explore the efficacy of Sepranolone as a treatment for Tourette syndrome, by reducing the severity and frequency of tics. The total study duration from the Screening Visit to the final follow-up visit was approximately 26 weeks and included the following periods: - A baseline period of 4 weeks between the screening visit (Visit 1) and randomization (4 weeks of baseline period were not needed in well-known adult subjects with stable Tourette syndrome history over the past at least 4 weeks). A school holiday/annual leave period of 2-6 weeks where no study-related activities were done. - A randomized treatment period of 12 weeks - A safety follow-up period of 4 weeks
The aim of this study was to assess the risk and complications after preoperative drainage of biliary obstruction in patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy. A retrospective cohort study of all patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy from January 1st, 2015 to September 30th, 2021. Patients who had preoperative bile duct drainage were compared to patients without intervention. Type of interventions, complications and outcome after surgery were compared using univariate and multivariate analysis.
Within a six-year period from 2016-2021, this retrospective cohort study aims to report: 1) the national incidence of fatal and non-fatal drowning incidents attended by the Danish Emergency Medical Services (EMS), 2) Risk factors associated with 30-day mortality, 3) Spatial distribution drowning incidents presented on a map of Denmark stratified for 30-day survival. Furthermore, the investigators will follow the Utstein Style For Drowning (USFD) recommended guidelines for uniform reporting of data from drowning.
Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a subtype of diabetes which is caused by mutations in specific genes leading to diabetes. The most common cause of MODY is due to mutations in the gene hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF1A) and is consequently named HNF1A-MODY (or MODY3). HNF1A-MODY is associated with urinary excretion of glucose at lower blood glucose levels compared to other types of diabetes. Normally, glucose is reabsorbed by sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2), but SGLT2 is downregulated due to the mutation in HNF1A. Investigators aim to evaluate the impact of the decreased expression of SGLT2 on glucosuria in patients with HNF1A-MODY compared to patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using a single dose of an SGLT2 inhibitor during a glucose clamp experiment.
Deterioration of walking capacity is a common symptom in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS), furthermore having a negative influence on well-being. Studies have nevertheless shown that walking exercise therapy can improve walking capacity in pwMS. This may be particularly potent if occurring outdoors due to the varying stimuli it can provide (different surfaces and terrain etc.), and if the intensity and duration is adequate. Furthermore, outdoor walking is (1) suitable as a group intervention facilitating interaction between pwMS and (2) advantageous due to the health benefits offered through the interaction with nature itself. Both these aspects are also relevant for well-being. Few studies have nevertheless examined the effects of outdoor walking exercise therapy in pwMS. The purpose of the present study is therefore to examine the effects of 7 weeks of moderate-to-high intensity outdoor walking exercise therapy on walking capacity (primary outcome: 6-minute walk test) and well-being in pwMS.
The purpose of the present study is to estimate the lifetime incidence of any mental disorder in a nationwide population-based register linkage study for the Danish population and to estimate the influence on socio-economic functioning.
Diseases of dementia are chronic, untreatable, and cause a massive burden of morbidity. In this proposal, we seek to tackle the problem of better, earlier, and more efficient diagnosis using deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI). The study is divided in two sub-studies: 1) optimization and simplification of DMI protocols, and 2) a cross-sectional study of DMI in Alzheimer's patients and healthy controls.
Many believe that it is unsafe to swim immediately after having a meal and that it is preferable to wait at least 30 minutes. The fear is that swimming can cause stomach cramps and muscle cramps with discomfort and potentially drowning. With this randomized controlled trial, the aim was to investigate whether there was any hold in this belief and what could potentially happen by swimming with the stomach full immediately after a meal.
Urothelial carcinomas of the lower and upper urinary tract can be considered "twin diseases". Much of the current clinical decision-making surrounding Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma (UTUC) is extrapolated from evidence that is based on urothelial carcinoma of bladder patients. The inner wall of the bladder is coated with a substance called glycosaminoglycan (GAG). GAG is known to form a gel-like layer on the apical cell membrane and act as a barrier against urine and pathogens in the lower urinary tract. Currently no published research on the presence of a GAG layer in the upper urinary tract exists. However, literature suggests that the ureteral utothelium can be transduced without enhancers, and the ureteral urothelium may be intrinsically different from bladder, both by the presence or absence of a GAG-layer, by different composition/thickness of the GAG-layer. Any functional differences between the urothelial layers in the bladder and in the upper urinary tract may affect the adeno-virus transduction, which again will have potential impact on future treatment of UTUC patients with a current unmet medical need.
Stroke survivors struggle to meet clinical recommendations for physical exercise duration and intensity. During the past two decades, music interventions have increasingly shown effectiveness in several motor tasks in stroke rehabilitation. Additionally, music has been found effective in increasing exercise performance in athletes and other clinical populations. Based on a meta-theoretical review paper by Clark, Baker & Taylor (2016), it was hypothesized that the therapeutic effects of music in physical exercise is modulated by the preference and task-specificity of the music. We will test this hypothesis using a three-armed randomized cross-over design comprised of the following auditory conditions: 1) a group-tailored playlist 2) radio as active control and 3) a non-music control condition during cycle ergometry cardiorespiratory exercise sessions. Participants are inpatient stroke survivors undergoing rehabilitation between 2-12 weeks post infarct.
