There are about 25435 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United Kingdom. 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 will investigate the feasibility of using direct HIS pacing or left bundle branch pacing (LBB pacing) as an alternative to biventricular pacing in patients with symptomatic heart failure and an ECG with a typical left bundle branch block pattern.
A multi-centre, open-labelled, randomised, crossover design. The total study duration for the individual subject will be approximately 4 weeks, consisting of four site visits and two 2-week test periods at home. Visits 0 and 1 can be performed on the same day. For visit 2 and 3, 2 catheterisations will be performed in a hospital setting (one HCP catheterisation and one self-catheterisation) for bladder emptying and user experience assessments. Visit 1 and 2 are followed by a home-use test period, followed by visit 3 which terminates the study.
The objective of this clinical study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of dexpramipexole in participants with inadequately controlled severe eosinophilic asthma.
Background/study aim: Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common disorder of tooth development. Affected teeth have weak enamel and adult molars often require extensive treatment or even extraction. A preliminary study, carried out in Sheffield Dental Hospital, discovered that 12% of MIH children also had congenitally missing adult teeth, presenting further challenges to treatment-planning. This novel finding stimulated discussion between international MIH experts; whilst some clinicians had observed this association, others had not. Therefore the primary aim of this international study is to determine the association between MIH and missing teeth in different populations. This has important clinical and biological relevance in understanding the presentation and management of MIH. Participants/research sites: This study will include 584 children with MIH and a comparison group of 584 children without MIH. Young dental patients, aged 7-16 years, who attend for a check-up or treatment at one of the 15 participating countries will be invited to take part. The UK sites are Sheffield, Newcastle and University College London Dental Hospitals and all children will be seen by specialists/consultants in paediatric dentistry to confirm their diagnosis of MIH. The main inclusion criteria is that children have a dental xray as part of their routine care. Data collection: Following a routine dental check-up we will grade the severity of the participants' MIH (if present) and record any other dental anomalies (e.g. abnormal tooth number, position or shape). We will also check the dental xray for other anomalies that cannot be seen from the clinical exam. We will analyse the prevalence of MIH and association with other dental anomalies to see if there are difference according to sex or ethnicity and compare our findings with the non-MIH group. We anticipate the study will take 18 months.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate change in geographic atrophy (GA) lesion growth of eyes treated with JNJ-81201887 compared to sham control.
The main aim of this study is to assess treatment satisfaction, quality of life, treatment preference, adherence and convenience, psychosocial effects of scalp psoriasis, sleep quality, and effectiveness, and safety of Calcipotriene/Betamethasone Dipropionate (CAL/BDP) PAD cream in a real-world setting.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Inorganic nitrate found in beetroot and green leafy vegetables has been demonstrated to reduce cardiovascular disease risk factors including reducing blood pressure and the stiffness of blood vessels by increasing levels of a compound called nitric oxide. Much of the research to date has focused on the large blood vessels, and little is known about the impact of inorganic nitrate on smaller blood vessels which could be related to cognitive function. The majority of beneficial effects with inorganic nitrate have been observed within young healthy populations. However, it is known that after the menopause women are at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and have reduced levels of nitric oxide in their body; this could also contribute to the cognitive decline also observed post-menopause. This trial will investigate the impact of inorganic nitrate from beetroot juice on the blood flow in small blood vessels and on cognitive function in postmenopausal women. The hypothesis of the study is that the nitrate in beetroot juice will increase circulating nitric oxide that will then increase blood flow in small blood vessels and improve cognitive function.
The goal of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability to community-dwelling older adults of implementing a precise prescription of oral nutritional supplementation (the SPOONful intervention).
The Active Surveillance study is a prospective study developed to look at the association of biomarkers with PrCa presentation and progression among men on Active Surveillance and stratify it by their genetic risk. This study will also investigate the incidence and progression by differing genetic risks.
This study investigates the effects of Splenda, an artificial sweetener powder containing sucralose, on post-prandial blood glucose levels, appetite scores and subsequent energy intake.
