There are about 11244 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.
In this study the investigators will evaluate the effectiveness of Mindhelper.dk, which is the most comprehensive online youth mental health promotion service in Denmark. A minimum of 9,426 young people aged 15 to 25 will be recruited through social media and invited to participate in the study. When responding to the baseline questionnaire participants will be randomized to either the intervention or control group. The intervention group will receive information about Mindhelper.dk and inspiration on how to use Mindhelper through text-messages during the study period. The control group does not receive information about Mindhelper.dk, until after completion of the last follow-up questionnaire. Three follow-up questionnaires will then be sent to the participants 2 weeks, 6 weeks and 12 weeks after randomization. The investigators expect a small, positive effect on participants well-being and psychological functioning in intervention groups as compared to the control group.
The main purpose of this study is to determine if retatrutide can significantly lower the incidence of serious heart-related complications or prevent the worsening of kidney function. The trial will enroll adults with body mass index 27 kg/m^2 or higher and Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and/or chronic kidney disease.
To examine the effect of a Medication Coordinator, who facilitates medication reviews in close collaboration with patients using My Medication Plan to reduce the risk of post-hospital inappropriate medication usage.
The effect of calorie restriction combined with low or moderate carbohydrate availability on exercise capacity, metabolism and metabolic health indicators will be measured in a randomized parallel group design. Forty overweight (BMI 25-30) and relatively inactive women (20-35 of age) will be included. These will be randomized into one of two experimental groups both receiving a calorie-restricted diet (-1000 kcal) combined with either low carbohydrate availability or moderate carbohydrate availability across a 10 day period. Laboratory-based physical capacity tests and blood and muscle sampling will be performed before and after the intervention. In addition, an additional follow-up test day will be performed after continuing the diet for another 48 h and then standardizing the pre-testing carbohydrate availability before repeating the tests of physical capacity.
The aim of the study is to investigate how the combination of ropivacaine (a slow onset, long duration local anesthetic) with lidocaine (a rapid onset, shorter duration local anesthetic) affects the onset and duration of a lateral infraclavicular plexus brachialis (LIC) block in patients undergoing non-acute hand surgery.
At the center of pediatric oncology in Copenhagen the investigators experience that the children with brain tumor, more or less have a healthy body with normal skeletal muscle mass and are physical active to the same level as their friends at the same age. The treatment period for brain tumor is approximately two years. After the treatment period, the children are more sedative with less interest in coming out doing physical activities and thus the investigators suspect that they have altered hormonal response, low skeletal muscle mass and perhaps are in risk of developing metabolic syndrome. By comparing children with newly diagnosed CNS tumor with children finished treated for CNS tumor, we wish to describe the metabolic path during the approximately two years treatment period these children go through. These results will also be compared with results from healthy controls. The investigators aim to include 10 children (aged 6-18 years) with newly diagnosed CNS tumor, 10 children (aged 6-18 years) finished treated for CNS tumor and 10 healthy controls (aged 6-18 years). By using stable isotope technique the investigators will investigate systemic fat, glucose and protein metabolism together with liver protein degradation and glucose production. Furthermore, by using DXA scan the investigators will describe the quality and distribution of skeletal muscle. Lastly, the investigators will determine the skeletal muscle signal pathway and metabolism in skeletal muscle via the Bergström biopsy technique in vastus lateralis.
To investigate the feasibility of the lateral infraclavicular plexus brachialis (LIC) block for acute closed reduction of distal radius fractures, the investigators will compare the pain-relieving and muscle-relaxing properties of the LIC block with short- and long-acting local anesthetics in different concentrations but at the same volume. In addition to motor and sensory blockade during repositioning, feasibility will also be assessed by other patient-related and block-related factors, as well as by factors related to the repositioning and plastering procedure.
Pain is the most common complication following surgical removal of an impacted mandibular third molar. Several risk factors may increase the intensity and duration of pain following removal of mandibular third molars. Acute postoperative pain can transcript into postoperative chronic pain without an explainable reason or a specific risk factor. The use of advanced platelet-rich fibrin in the extraction socket following surgical removal of mandibular third molar have diminished the intensity and duration of acute postoperative pain and facilitated improved wound healing. The objective of the present study is therefore to identified specific risk factors and predictors for developing postoperative chronic pain following surgical removal of mandibular third molars with or without advanced platelet-rich fibrin applied in the extraction socket using epigenetic modulation.
Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is characterized by gross proteinuria (>3.5 g/day), hypoalbuminaemia, edema and often hyperlipidemia. Hyperlipidemia is correlated with increased morbidity and mortality. The study aim is to investigate the role of the protein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) in hyperlipidemia of NS, which has been suggested to play an important role. This is done by testing the following hypotheses: 1. PCSK9 is increased in patients with NS and hyperlipidemia compared to kidney-healthy controls 2. The level of PCSK9 in plasma correlates to the degree of proteinuria. 3. PCSK9 i increased in the kidney tissue of patients with NS The study will compare plasma levels of PCSK9 in correlation with degree of protein in the urine between test persons with NS and kidney healthy controls. Furthermore the investigators will study the the degree of PCSK9 in the kidney in biopsies obtained from test persons with nephrotic syndrome and test persons without proteinuria.
The Improve study is a randomized controlled trial investigating the efficacy of adding comprehensive geriatric assessment and treatment to standard of care compared with standard of care in older, frail patients with hematological cancer. The investigators aim to recruit 152 study participants who will be randomized 1:1 to intervention- or control group. Study participants in the intervention group will receive the intervention comprehensive geriatric assessment and treatment integrated in the cancer treatment. Study participants in the control group will receive cancer treatment and evaluation of comorbidity and frailty as is usual standard at Department of Hematology. Primary endpoint is elderly functional Index at 12 weeks.
