There are about 1447 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Croatia. 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 of this study was to demonstrate superiority of secukinumab at Week 16, based on Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR) rates versus placebo, along with the maintenance of efficacy of secukinumab at Week 52 in subjects with moderate to severe HS. Moreover, this study assessed the safety and tolerability of secukinumab.
Goal of this study is to determine optimal PEEP levels for patients undergoing surgery in lateral decubitus position. Patients will be randomized into 3 groups - PEEP 0, 5 and 10 mbar. Endotracheal anesthesia will be conducted with propofol, fentanyl, rocuronium and sevoflurane/O2/air gas mixture. Patients with preexisting lung disease, organ transplants and disseminated malignant disease will be excluded. Demographic data - age, weight, height, ASA status, smoking history will be recorded. EIT measured parameters - tidal variation ratio of nondependent and dependent lung, regional end-tidal and end-expiratory lung impedances as well as horizontal and vertical centers of ventilation will be recorded and calculated at 3 time points - before anesthesia induction, 5 minutes after lateral positioning of the patient and 90 minutes after lateral positioning. ABGs will be sampled to calculate aA gradient and Horovitz quotient at those time points as well as measured hemodynamic parameters (HR, BP, CI, SVI). Primary endpoints for the study are nondependent/dependent tidal variation ratios measured at predefined time points and changes in ABGs. Secondary endpoints are number of postoperative pulmonary complications (defined as new onset of pneumonia during 28 days of followup), length of hospital stay and changes in hemodynamic parameters.
Analysis of factors that influence CPR survival of 1440 patients that were resuscitated in Istria County, Croatia between 2011-2017.
This study will compare the effect of semaglutide once weekly to insulin aspart 3 times daily as add on to metformin and insulin glargine in people with type 2 diabetes. Participants will either get insulin glargine and semaglutide or insulin glargine and insulin aspart - which treatment the participant get is decided by chance. Insulin glargine is taken once a day and semaglutide once a week. Insulin aspart is taken three times per day before a meal. All three medicines come in pre-filled pens for injection under the skin. The study will last for about 71 weeks. If participant's blood sugar gets under or over certain values participant will only participate in 14 weeks. The study doctor will inform the participant about this. The participant will have 15 clinic visits and 22 phone calls with the study doctor.
Multi-center, randomized, double-blind, non-inferiority study of cefepime 2 g/AAI101 500 mg combination compared to piperacillin 4 g/tazobactam 500 mg in a population of adult patients with cUTI or AP. The study will be conducted in approximately 115 sites located in the EU, the US, Central, South America and South Africa.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission (per Adapted Mayo score) in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).
The purpose of this study was to establish safety and efficacy of ligelizumab in adolescent and adult subjects with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU) who remain symptomatic despite standard of care treatment by demonstrating better efficacy over omalizumab and over placebo. The study population consisted of 1,072 male and female subjects aged ≥ 12 years who were diagnosed with CSU and who remained symptomatic despite the use of H1-antihistamines. This was a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, active- and placebo-controlled, parallel-group study. There was a screening period of up to 28 days, a 52 week double-blind treatment period, and a 12 week post-treatment follow-up period.
The researchers are doing the study to see if semaglutide may reduce the risk of having cardiovascular events in patients with overweight or obesity and with prior cardiovascular disease. The participant will either get semaglutide (active medicine) or placebo ("dummy" medicine). Which treatment the participants get is decided by chance. The participant's chance of getting semaglutide or placebo is the same. The participant will get the study medicine in a pen. The participants will need to use the pen to inject the study medicine in a skinfold once a week. The study will last for about 2.5 to 5 years. Participants will have up to 25 clinic visits with the study doctor.
The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of two therapeutic protocols in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection. The hypothesis of our research is that the two therapeutic options (hybrid and concomitant therapy) will be equally successful in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection. In other words, in both therapeutic groups we expect successful treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection in or more than 90 % of patients. In other studies, both therapeutic options have the same efficacy in treating H. pylori infection. On the other had there are no studies available in Croatia to compare the effectiveness of these therapeutic options so far, which is the main objective of our research. The secondary goals of our study will be: the existence of differences in the occurrence of possible side effects, as well as the compliance between patients in both therapeutic options. It is also our aim to compare the quality of life of patients with Helicobacter pylori infection before and after treatment, via a questionnaire that is common for this purpose. The study is expected to include a total of 120 patients (60 patients in each therapy group), and the planned duration is 12 months.
Participants will be randomly given one of two formats containing descriptions of health interventions. In one format, participants will have to read short summaries where results of the intervention are presented as frequencies and the side effects of health intervention are presented as percentages, while in another format the frames will be reversed (results will be presented as percentages and side effects as frequencies). After reading, participants will be asked several questions about the content of the summary and its conclusions.
