There are about 4372 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Greece. 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 purpose is to assess the hypothesis that indirect ophthalmoscopy for retinopathy of prematurity eye examination (ROPEE) screening without the use of a lid speculum and scleral indentation (speculum-free, SpF) is less painful/stressful than funduscopy with speculum (Sp) and scleral indentation.
Analysis our Embryo transfer data, prospectively collected during the last 6 years (2014- 2019), performed by the same operator YP, who has been doing embryo transfers since 1984. All factors that might impact the embryo transfer will be analyzed. We want to see which factors that influence the success rate are not related to the subjectivity of the operator and could be adjusted through different approaches.
The association of diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) with sarcopenia has not been adequately investigated. Sarcopenia is characterized by progressive and generalized loss of skeletal muscle mass which may affect performance.
This will be a randomized study aiming at investigating the combination of a norepinephrine infusion and colloid preloading versus the combination of a norepinephrine infusion and crystalloid co-loading for the prevention of maternal hypotension during elective cesarean section
The purpose of this structured questionnaire is to provide useful insight on the practice of regional anesthesia in Greece and depict the result of educational efforts taking place in the country to expand the knowledge and practice of regional anesthesia in the country
This will be a double-blind randomized study, aiming at investigating a fixed rate phenylephrine infusion versus a fixed rate norepinephrine infusion versus placebo in combination with co-hydration with colloids for the prevention of maternal hypotension in elective cesarean section
The present study will investigate the volume and extent of the expected physiological effects of "early mobilization" on the prevention of the clinical illness' detrimental sequelae and on the functional recovery promotion of CABG, AVR and MVR patients. Consequently, it will investigate if the improved health outcomes may limit the number and intensity of complications and thus if it may speed up hospital discharge.
This is a study in adolescents and adults with Generalized Pustular Psoriasis (GPP). People between 12 and 75 years old can take part in the study. The study is open to people who had GPP flare-ups in the past but whose skin is clear or almost clear when they join the study. The purpose of the study is to test 3 different doses of a medicine called spesolimab and to see whether it helps to prevent GPP flare-ups. Participants are put into 4 groups by chance. Three groups get different doses of spesolimab. The fourth group gets a placebo. Placebo looks like spesolimab but does not contain any medicine. Spesolimab and placebo are given as an injection under the skin. Participants are in the study for about 1 year and 4 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 15 times. For the first 11 months, participants get spesolimab or placebo injections every month. At the study visits, the doctors check participants' skin for signs of a new GPP flare-up. The doctors also check the general health of the participants. If a participant has a GPP flare-up during the study, more visits may be necessary. In case of a flare-up, participants get a dose of spesolimab as an infusion into a vein.
Recent information appearing from different countries suggest that treatment of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with hydroxychloroquine or with a combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin has either an indifferent effect on viral replication or substantial cardiotoxicity. This is a clinical trial aiming to prove that addition of oral clarithromycin to treatment regimen of COVID-19 is associated with early clinical improvement and attenuation of the high inflammatory burden of the host. The study will not comprise a placebo-comparator group since this is considered inappropriate in an era of a pandemic with substantial global mortality.
The main research objective of this study is whether athletes who have sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury, experience chronic nociplastic pain and psychosocial factors, including kinesiophobia and pain catastrophizing, after having been through ACL reconstruction surgery and rehabilitation and have returned to sport.
