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 investigates whether add-on treatment with eyewear that blocks the short wavelengths of visible light (<500nm) reduces manic symptoms and improves sleep in patients receiving outpatient treatment as usual for bipolar disorder. When in a hypomanic or manic phase, participants will be randomized to receive add-on treatment with either blue blocking or low filtration eyewear from 18 PM to 8 AM daily for 7 days. After this initial intervention phase, the eyewear is used daily for 3 months in either antimanic dose (14 hours) or maintenance dose (2 hours before bedtime).
The primary objective of this study is to determine the effect on complication severity of using a clinical monitoring system with automatic vital sign alerts in addition to routine monitoring versus routine monitoring alone in high-risk postoperative cancer patients within 30 days after surgery. Other objectives include documentation of the severity of complications within seven days of surgery, frequency of serious adverse events, mortality, length of stay and delay of planned chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy and safety of baxdrostat/dapagliflozin in participants ≥ 18 years of age with CKD and HTN. This study consists of a screening, a 4-week dapagliflozin run-in period for participants naïve to SGLT2i at baseline; a 24-month double-blind period in which participants will receive either baxdrostat/dapagliflozin or dapagliflozin; and a 6-week open-label period in which all participants will discontinue baxdrostat/placebo and receive dapagliflozin alone. Site visits will take place at 2-, 4-, 8-, and 16- weeks following randomisation. Thereafter visits will occur approximately every 4 months, until the 24-month visit at which time baxdrostat/placebo will be discontinued. Participants will continue open-label dapagliflozin for another 6-weeks (approximately), where reassessment of GFR will occur for the primary efficacy endpoint. In the event of premature discontinuation of blinded study intervention, participants will continue in the study and receive open-label dapagliflozin monotherapy, unless the participant meets dapagliflozin specific discontinuation criteria, in which case all study interventions will be discontinued.
Background and Purpose During pregnancy, the hormone GDF15 rises between 100-200 times higher than before pregnancy. The significance of this dramatic increase is not clarified, but it has been shown that pregnant women with insufficient increase in GDF15 have a higher risk of spontaneous abortion. CAPGDF15 is a small peptide consisting of 12 amino acids recently found in plasma in both mice and humans, and this peptide is part of the prohormone from which GDF15 is synthesized. Therefore, the assumption is that CAPGDF15 is secreted simultaneously with GDF15. The significance of CAPGDF15 in the organism is completely unknown, except that injection into mice reduces food intake. Therefore, the investigators are interested in investigating whether there is a similar dramatic upregulation of CAPGDF15 as with GDF15 itself. The investigators will not set up a large-scale study without having some prior knowledge of whether this is indeed the case. Therefore, the investigators will conduct a pilot study on 3 pregnant women and 3 control women to examine whether there is any reason to proceed with an actual scientific experiment. Since the increase in GDF15 itself is very large at least100 fold, a pilot study involving only 3 pregnant women and 3 non-pregnant women will be sufficient to gain an impression of whether there is also a significant increase in CAPGDF15. The data will be used to assess whether an actual research project is worth establishing. Purpose: The purpose of conducting this pilot study is to investigate whether there is an upregulation of CAPGDF15 similar to that of the hormone GDF15 during pregnancy. By conducting a pilot study on 3 pregnant women and 3 control women, the investigators will see if this is actually the case before setting up an actual scientific experiment.
The incidence of type 2 diabetes worldwide has increased significantly over the past decades, which is associated with changing dietary habits and physical inactivity. According to the diet, so far there has been a great focus on the quality of carbohydrates and fat in relation to metabolic health, while the importance of protein has been neglected. The Danes' average protein intake is 1.5 g/kg/day, which is at the high end of the recommendations (0.8-1.5 g/kg/day) from the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations (NNR 2023). Recent studies in rodents have shown that protein restriction has positive effects on health, including improved glucose and insulin homeostasis and reduced fat mass, while a high intake of protein has a negative effect on insulin sensitivity. Previously the investigators have shown, in healthy young men, that consuming a diet low in protein (0.9 g/kg/day), compared to the participants usual diet (1.5 g/kg/day), over 7 days, resulted in an increased insulin sensitivity as well as a marked increase in the plasma fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) concentration. The increased insulin sensitivity is thought to be mediated by the increase in plasma FGF21 concentration. However, the effect is not yet fully understood. It is also not clear whether the increase in plasma FGF21 concentration, as well as the mentioned metabolic effects on insulin and glucose homeostasis, will take place if the participants are kept weight stable on a eucaloric diet.
This study aims to develop a therapy for restoring the gut microbiome in infants born via CS. We will conduct a randomized, placebo-controlled feasibility trial to assess the ability of microbiome restoration by FMT and FVT in infants born by cesarean section.
Prolonged dietary protein restriction has been shown to increase energy expenditure in mice simultaneously with an increase in plasma FGF21 levels. In overfeeding studies, a protein-restricted diet reduces weight gain in both mice and humans compared with normal and high-protein diets. Further, in energy balance studies, when lean men are provided with a protein-restricted diet for five weeks, an increase in energy intake was necessary to obtain their body weight. However, whether the effect of a protein-restricted diet is the same when consumed by overweight to obese men has divergent results in both mice and humans.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of guselkumab in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis at the end of maintenance therapy among participants who were induction responders.
HIP is a randomized controlled trial. The aim is investigate the effect, safety and feasibility of brief, high-impact exercise targeting bones in patients with prostate cancer and bone metastases. Furthermore, to investigate the effects of the intervention on bone status (bone mineral density) and body composition, physical function and performance, patient reported quality-of-life outcomes, falls and hospitalizations.
The goal of this international inception cohort study is to describe fluid administration during admittance to the intensive care unit (ICU), and provide contemporary epidemiological data on fluid accumulation, risk factors, management and outcome in critically ill adult patients.
