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 aim of the study is to investigate the applicability and performance of 64Cu-DOTATATE PET/CT/MR for diagnosis in patients with Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB). In this prospective, observational cohort study with 64Cu-DOTATATE, the investigators wish to include a total of 50 patients clinically suspected of LNB. The investigators will investigate the diagnostic value of 64Cu-DOTATATE-PET comparing clinically suspected and CSF verified LNB patients with clinically suspected patients without CSF verification. The investigators hypothesize that the information obtained from 64Cu-DOTATATE PET/CT/MRI can improve the diagnostics of LNB as well as that 64Cu-DOTATATE PET/CT/MRI will be able to contribute to the follow-up of patients by adding prognostic information and the risk of persistent symptoms. The application of 64Cu-DOTATATE PET/CT/MRI in the diagnostic work-up of LNB would thus expectedly lead to a more precise diagnosis and risk assessment.
The EDUEX trial will determine whether the addition of progressive resistance training (PRT) to a patient education program (EDU) will improve clinical outcomes in patients with hip OA. In a subsample, the effect of PRT on the articular cartilage and other structures of the hip joint is investigated. In this subsample, a comprehensive assessment of possible mechanisms underlying the effects of exercise on pain and function is undertaken. The EduEx trial will be a multicentre, stratified (by site), block randomized (allocation 1:1), controlled, parallel-group superiority trial. 150 people with hip OA will be recruited from hospitals, physiotherapy clinics, social media and newspapers. Participants will be randomized to PRT and EDU or EDU alone. All 150 participants will be included in the clinical evaluation study (CLIN). The last 40 participants randomized to PRT+EDU and to EDU, respectively, will also be included in the mechanistic (MECH) evaluation study (n=80), by being asked to participate in additional outcome assessments. The primary endpoint will be the 12 months follow-up for both the CLIN and MECH study, while a secondary endpoint will be the 3-month follow-up.
The clinical investigation is an exploratory, randomised controlled, open-labelled, crossover investigation. The clinical investigation will be conducted as a multi-centre clinical investigation in two different clinical investigation sites in Denmark.
The goal of this clinical trial is to address the critical need for effective interventions by developing and testing an interdisciplinary values-based cognitive behavioral therapy (V-CBT) program for individuals with persistent whiplash. The main question it aims to answer are: - What is the treatment effect of the interdisciplinary values-based cognitive behavioral therapy (V-CBT) program on individuals with persistent whiplash? - What are the temporal relationships between primary and secondary outcome measures in the context of the V-CBT program? Participants will undergo a replicated multiple baselines single-case experimental design (SCED). Twelve participants who meet specific eligibility criteria will be block-randomized to a 1, 2, or 3-week baseline phase, serving as their own controls. The intervention involves an interdisciplinary team delivering a manualized adapted V-CBT program over ten sessions, focusing on psychological and physical rehabilitation. Participants will be required to attend these sessions as part of the treatment protocol. Data collection includes daily online self-reports and comprehensive measurements at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and a three-month follow-up.
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. The study will last for about 5 years. Participants will have up to 27 clinic visits with the study doctor.
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.
