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.
MULTINATIONAL Retrospective Chart Review Study to Assess the Characteristics, Treatment Outcomes and Resource Use Among Adult Patients Hospitalized for Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) or Complicated Skin and Soft Tissue Infections (cSSTI) Treated with Zinforo® (ceftaroline fosamil) in a Usual Care Setting
Many tennis tournaments are played outdoors in hot and humid conditions, which poses a significant challenge particularly for children athletes. The purpose of this investigation is to examine if a precooling method can reduce thermal strain and consequently improve the performance of adolescent tennis athletes while exercising in hot conditions.
The purpose of the LOW-RAO study is to determine the most effective treatment for radial artery occlusion (RAO) after transradial coronary catheterization (both angiography and PCI). This is a prospective, single-center, randomized controlled, open-label study that will randomize patients with RAO into two groups, one receiving anticoagulation with low-molecular-weight-heparin (LMWH) and the other receiving no anticoagulation. RAO will be detected by radial artery ultrasound up to 24 hours after the procedure. Study objectives: 1. Primary objective: a. To evaluate the effect of treatment with LMWH, in patients (both symptomatic and asymptomatic) with RAO after a coronary catheterization procedure (both angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention-PCI), in improving patency rates of the radial artery at 1 month after the procedure, compared with no-LMWH treatment. 2. Secondary objectives: 1. To compare RAO as defined by different methods (pulse palpation, modified Allen's test, reverse Barbeau test, radial artery ultrasound). 2. To compare local access site and systemic complications (bleeding events, pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula) at 1 month after the procedure in the LMWH and no-LMWH groups. 3. To evaluate RAO incidence in coronary angiography and PCI groups. 4. To determine risk factors for RAO in coronary catheterization procedures.
The availability of several high-cost strategies for the prevention of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with established cardiovascular disease highlights the necessity of reliable risk stratification of these patients. Several such prognostic models are available for patients with coronary artery disease; however, for patients with ischemic stroke, the available risk stratification schemes are very few and have several limitations. This study aims to develop a prognostication tool to stratify the risk of cardiovascular outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke. The development of a well-designed prognostication tool for the stratification of cardiovascular risk in patients with ischemic stroke may assist to the identification of the highest-risk patients and hence, provide useful information to clinicians and authoritative bodies when prioritizing high-cost strategies for secondary stroke prevention.
The MINOCA-GR registry will be the first nationwide study aiming to obtain data regarding prevalence, demographics, clinical profile, previous anginal status, presence of cardiovascular risk factors, management and outcomes in patients with Myocardial Infarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries. An additional purpose of the registry is to highlight, for the first time worldwide to the best of the investigator's knowledge, the role of cardiac computed tomography angiography for risk stratification and personalized therapeutic approach in MINOCA patients.
All patients will receive quadruple eradication therapy for 10 days with Omerazole 20mg x2, Amoxicilin 1g x2, Clarithromycin 500mg x2 and Metronidazole 500mg x2. The patients will be randomised into two groups. The first group will receive one capsule of probiotics x2 two hours before or after meal for 15 days and the second group placebo (capsule with same composition and colour with probiotic) x2, two hours before or after meal for 15 days as well. The probiotic (Lactolevure, Uni-Pharma, Athens) contains four probiotic strains known for their effectivness and safety, Saccharomyces Boulandrii (1.5 BU/capsule), Bifidobacterium Lactis BB-12 (1.75 BU/capsule), Lactobacillus Acidodophilus LA-5 (1.75 BU/capsule) and Lactobacillus Plantarum (0.5 BU/capsule).
Pain is a global public health issue and represents the most common reason for both physician consultation and hospital admissions . When unrelieved or poorly controlled, it is associated with medical complications, poor patient satisfaction and increased risk of developing chronic pain. Dexketoprofen is a new NSAID treating acute postoperative pain and when it combined with tramadol may have a better effect. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic effect of the oral use of the combination of dexketoprofen/tramadole on the reduction of postoperative pain after total hip arthroplasty with minimal invasive anterior approach (AMIS).
This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of ipatasertib in combination with atezolizumab and paclitaxel in locally advanced or metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) previously untreated in this setting.
The goal of this study is to validate the Fitbit ECG software algorithm's ability to detect atrial fibrillation using data derived from a Fitbit wrist-worn consumer device that features a single lead ECG. The performance of the software application will be measured against centralized Core Lab physician-adjudicated 12-lead ECG tracings from FDA cleared ECG monitors as reference standards. The Fitbit software is intended as a pre-screening technology. It should identify candidates who may benefit from further evaluation. The software is not intended to be a diagnostic system.
Legumes are high nutritional quality foods and constitute a rich source of proteins and dietary fibers which have been associated with appetite regulation and body weight management. The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of regular consumption of a cereal-based snack fortified with legumes on body weight reduction.
