There are about 1183 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Indonesia. 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 goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of melatonin on MDA serum, IL-6, IL-8 levels, ANC, and sepsis score in preterm neonates with sepsis. The main question aim to answer : • Does melatonin affect MDA serum, IL-6, IL-8 levels, ANC, and sepsis score in preterm neonates with sepsis? The participants in the treatment group will receive a single dose of oral melatonin 20 mg, meanwhile those the control group will receive placebo. The researchers will compare MDA serum, IL-6, IL-8 levels, ANC, and sepsis score before and after receiving melatonin, whether there are decreases of MDA serum, IL-6, IL-8 levels, ANC and increase of sepsis score
The study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) supplementation compared to placebo to prevent HFS by observing changes in serum COX 2, malondialdehyde (MDA), and TNF α levels in breast cancer and colorectal cancer patients undergoing capecitabine chemotherapy. Current study was designed as a single-center prospective randomized clinical trial. The patients were Stage III or Stage IV colorectal and breast cancer patients receiving capecitabine-based chemotherapy who enrolled in the trial voluntarily. All patients were divided randomly into three groups treated with EVOO, olive oil, or placebo. The incidence of hand foot syndrome was documented. The serum COX 2, malondialdehyde (MDA), and TNF α levels before and after chemotherapy was documented.
Sleep is an important activity and snoring is the most often reported complaint. Snoring is also very common in the general population. Moreover, snoring can negatively impact bed companions' quality of sleep, daytime sleepiness, strain of relationships, social embarrassment and disturb mental health that in the end will reduce quality of life. Anatomical risk factors are believed to be one of major contributors to upper airway constriction during sleep. Treatment for this condition include lifestyle modifications (such as quitting alcohol or losing weight), positional therapy, mandibular advancement devices, upper airway surgery, and nasal continuous positive airway pressure. Myofunctional therapy (MT) as an adjunctive or alternative therapy can lower Apnea-Hypopnea Index in obstructive sleep apnea patients with pharyngeal dilator muscle collapse. Although these may be beneficial, the impact of MT on retropalatal narrowing as one of the snoring causes needs to be better established. This study was done to find out the impact of MT in people with snoring who have a collapsed pharynx that is located by a Flexible nasolaryngoscopy.
GECKO is a prospective, international, multicentre, observational cohort study delivered by GlobalSurg Collaborative. This will be on consecutive patients undergoing cholecystectomy, between 31st July 2023 to 19th November 2023, with follow-up at 30-day and one-year postoperatively. Mini-teams of up to five collaborators per 14-day data collection period will prospectively collect data at each participating centre. The primary aim is to define the global variation in compliance to pre-, intra-, and post-operative audit standards. The subjects will be observed and interviewed during pre-surgery hospitalization up to one-year post-surgery.
This study will compare the quality of life between 2 groups, which are group that receive standard moderate acne therapy in addition of lesion extractions, and the second group which only receive standard moderate acne therapy without lesion extractions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare 0,1% topical low molecular weight (7 kDa) hyaluronic acid with 0,1% high molecular weight (1.800 kDa) hyaluronic acid as therapy of xerotic skin in elderly
This research is a clinical study with a single-blind randomized clinical trial design (randomized controlled trial) in multicenters at two Dermatology and Venereology Education centers in Indonesia. This study aims to determine the effectiveness and safety of PSP as adjuvant therapy for melasma. This research will be attended by 33 research subjects
Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation of the skin leads to acute inflammatory reactions such as erythema, sunburn, and chronic reactions, including premature skin aging and skin tumors. UV irradiation is a potent generator of oxidative stress in the skin. Exposure of mammalian skin to UV increases the cellular levels of reactive oxygen species, which damages lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids in both epidermal and dermal cells and contributes to the sunburn reaction as well as photocarcinogenesis and photoaging. In this study, the effects of a topical antioxidant on attenuating the harmful effects of UV irradiation on normal healthy volunteers were studied using biomarkers of skin damage. This study confirms the protective role of a unique mixture of antioxidants on human skin from the harmful effects of UV irradiation. We propose that antioxidant mixture will complement and synergize with sunscreens in providing photoprotection for human skin.
Pityriasis versicolor (PV) is a superficial, mild, often chronic recurring infection of the skin caused by Malassezia species which is characterized by the formation of hypopigmented, hyperpigmented and/or erythematous macules. It commonly occurs on the trunk and proximal extremities, but can also be found on the entire body. Diagnosis of PV established based on clinical features and microscopic examination with potassium hydroxide. The goals of PV treatment are: to eradicate the hyphae, disappearance of clinical signs and symptoms, to lessen recurrences, and improve patient's quality of life. Topical antifungal remains first line therapy and search for an ideal topical agent of PV continue. Various studies reported combining more than one topical agents can increase the efficacy, thus result in faster mycological cure.
The goal of this clinical trial study is to test effects of leucine-enriched branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) in critically ill patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: • How are the changes in muscle thickness between groups at baseline and end of study • Is there a decrease in interleukin-6 levels between groups at baseline and end of study • Is there a decrease in sequential organ failure assessment score between groups at baseline and end of study. Participants will be given leucine-enriched branched-chain amino acid 40 g/day enterally or parenterally for 10 days. Researchers will compare with control groups to see if there is any changes between groups at baseline and end of study.
