There are about 21071 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Spain. 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.
Gluteus Medius (GM) has also been implicated in the development of Low Back Pain (LBP). GM is one of the main pelvic, where he actively participates in control of motion in the frontal and transverse plane, and hip , improving stability to the lumbopelvic-hip complex. The aim of present study was to investigate whether modifying lower limb length with a different foot insoles of 0.5, 1 and 1.5 cm in a normal population has an effect on ES and GM activity and as a consequence in LBP. As a secondary objective, in turn, to evaluate whether ES and GM activity has an effect on jumping ability as assessed through CMJ.
Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS) is a chronic pain disorder that presents with inflammation and burning sensation in the oral cavity without visible lesions. Multiple therapies have been investigated without conclusive results.Objective: To analyse the efficacy of treatment with Clonazepam (Rivotril) and Low Power Diode Laser Therapy in patients with Burning Mouth Syndrome and to study the markers of inflammation present in the patients' saliva. Methods: Randomised, single-blind clinical trial with 89 patients divided into Group 1 Laser + Rivotril (n=20), Group 2 Laser Sham placebo (n=19), Group 3 Laser (n=21) and Group 4 Rivotril (n=18). The intensity of symptomatology was rated by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Sialometry was performed before and after treatment and questionnaires such as the Xerostomia Inventory, the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP14) and the Mini-Nutritional Assessment (MNA) were completed. Saliva samples were analysed by measuring markers related to inflammatory processes; Interleukins (IL2, IL4, IL 5, IL6, IL 7, IL 8, IL1β, IL 10, IL12, IL13, IL17, IL21, IL23), proteins (MIP-3α, MIP-1α, MIP-1β), Cytokine GM-CSF, Interferon gamma (IFNγ), Interferon Inducible Tα-Cell Chemoattractant (ITAC), Fractalkine and Tumour Necrosis Factor α(TNFα).
The aim of the study was to compare the performance effects of the intensity demarcation model based on the race pace based approach with the triphasic physiological model and heart rate variability guidelines (HR+HRV)
The investigators wanted to determine whether the combined use of vortexing and Maki techniques provides profitability versus the Maki technique for the diagnosis of catheter tip colonization and catheter-related bloodstream infection
NAMETI-Alcohol, from the acronym for Navarra Medical Trialist Initiative, is a pilot study in which two patterns of alcohol consumption, abstention and Mediterranean alcohol-drinking pattern, and their effects on health in the short and medium term will be compared.
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms. Pain is a significant symptom in PD, affecting a large percentage of patients and impacting their quality of life. The mechanisms of pain in PD involve complex changes in pain-modulating pathways, including dopaminergic and non-dopaminergic systems. To address the lack of pain management strategies, the investigators propose exploring non-pharmacological therapies like transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). tDCS is a safe and non-invasive technique that modulates neuronal activity. It has shown positive effects on pain processing in healthy individuals and chronic pain patients, but its potential for PD-associated pain remains largely unexplored. The primary motor cortex (M1) is a target for tDCS as it is believed to influence pain processing in other brain regions involved in sensory and emotional aspects. Initial studies suggest the benefits of tDCS in PD, including enhanced motor potentials and potential modulation of dopaminergic pathways. However, there are currently no published studies specifically investigating the effects of tDCS on PD-related pain, highlighting the need for further research. A proof-of-concept trial is proposed to examine the effects of a single tDCS session on M1 in PD patients during the OFF state (without medication) and after taking dopaminergic medication. The study aims to assess the pain-relieving effects of tDCS in PD and explore potential synergies between tDCS and dopaminergic medication. By better understanding the impact of tDCS on pain relief in PD, this research may offer insights into alternative non-pharmacological approaches for managing pain in PD.
The purpose of this study is to To study the blood bioavailability of a sustained-release β-alanine granulated supplement of two different doses (10 g and 20 g).
Acute calculous cholecystitis (ACC) is the second most frequent surgical condition in emergency departments. The recommended treatment is surgical treatment (ST) and the accepted mortality is <1%, but in severe and/or fragile patients is higher. Despite the Tokyo Guidelines, there no consensus on who is the unfit patient for ST. A recent study has identified 4 risk factors that predicts the mortality in a 92% of patients (ACME) and could help to develop new guidelines in ACC. The aim of this study is this validation of the new simplified scoring system for mortality in ACC.
This research corresponds to an experimental study, a randomized controlled clinical trial in people over 65 years of age, distributed into two groups: the experimental group will receive a program that will consist of an eight-week mindfulness-based intervention; and the control group that will only receive general recommendations about the benefits of physical exercise. Measurements will be carried out at the beginning of the intervention and immediately after its completion.
This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a comprehensive, multicomponent intervention utilizing education and support for Benzodiazepines withdrawal compared to standard care.
