There are about 5618 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in India. 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.
Liver biopsy is considered the gold standard for the evaluation of acute and chronic liver disorders. Liver biopsy provides information regarding diagnosis, disease progression, and response to therapy in patients with chronic liver diseases. Trans-jugular liver biopsy (TJLB) consists of obtaining liver tissue through a rigid cannula introduced into one of the hepatic veins typically using jugular venous access. This approach reduces the risk of hemorrhage after biopsy because the bleeding resulting from the biopsy needle will drain into the hepatic veins. In the past, the specimens obtained by a transjugular approach were considered suboptimal compared with the samples obtained with percutaneous needles because they were smaller and more fragmented. TJLB was initially indicated for patients who had a contraindication to percutaneous biopsy such as those with a coagulopathy or congenital clotting disorders, ascites, acute liver failure, large amount of adipose tissue, and patients after liver transplantation. The clinical role of TJLB has expanded due to the possibility of performing hemodynamic evaluation of the hepatic and portal venous systems, which provides useful information and may guide therapy in patients with portal hypertension. Lacuna in literature: There is no prospective study in India evaluating the safety and efficacy of trans-jugular liver biopsy in patients with liver disease.
This is an Open-label, Sequential dosing, Single Ascending Dose (SAD) Study to Determine the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetic (PK) Profile of KSHN001126 in Healthy Human Post-Menopausal Female Volunteers. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of increasing single doses of KSHN001126 while the secondary objective is to evaluate the plasma PK profile of KSHN001126 and its metabolites (KSHN001167, KSHN001168 and Fulvestrant) following ascending single oral doses of KSHN001126.
MARLIN is a stratified, multi-arm, multi-stage factorial randomised platform trial aiming to reduce the incidence of post-operative surgical site infection (SSI).
Aim: To determine the efficacy of intravenous neostigmine in the resolution of acute GI paralysis in patients with Critically Ill Cirrhosis (CIC). Study population: Critically ill cirrhosis patient admitted in liver ICU with new onset acute GI tract paralysis and develop feed intolerance. Study period - 1 years Sample Size • All the consecutive patients admitted in liver ICU during the study time period (Dec 2023 -September 2024) will be screened and those patients meeting with inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled, we intend to enroll 70 patients for the study.
Long-term studies have shown that various occlusal changes occur after the active phase of orthodontic treatment. some of these changes are unwanted changes and are considered as relapse The retention appliances are used to maintain the arch dimensions and alignment of the teeth after completion of the orthodontic treatment. One indicator of the functional state and health of the masticatory system is maximum voluntary bite force (MVBF). Its values vary in accordance to the location of measurement (highest at the first molar, lower at the incisors). People with pronounced horizontal craniofacial growth have somewhat higher values of MVBF, and those with vertical growth have lower values than do those with an average growth pattern. Clinical case reports and descriptive histologic data exist suggesting that bone and tooth remodeling persist for extended periods after removal of appliance or deactivation. A reflection of bone remodelling can be found in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of moving teeth, with decrease or increase in the concentration of biomarker. This prompted us to evaluate the expression of variation in bone turnover marker levels (CTX-Bone resorption marker and BALP -Bone formation marker ) during the retention period. The International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) and International Federation of Clinical Chemistry (IFCC) have recommended C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) as one of the reference for BTMs. Hence, The present trial will be undertaken to assess the changes and compare if there is any difference in bite force and change in level of bone biomarker biomarker CTX type 1 collagen(C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen and bone specific alkaline phosphatase(BALP) in post orthodontic treatment hypodivergent and hyperdivergent cases using beggs retainer over 12 months of period of retention.
Performance evaluation of diagnostic accuracy (Sensitivity and Specificity) of PanTum detect Test for detection of solid tumours in known cancer population (Sick population) and in cancer free (Healthy) population.
The purpose of this multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled and double-blind study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous anifrolumab compared with placebo on the overall disease activity in participants with moderate to severe Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies (IIM) [polymyositis (PM) or dermatomyositis (DM)] while receiving standard of care (SoC) treatment.
This is randomized controlled parallel arm study on free living Asian Indians. Eligible subjects will undergo one-week run-in period and subjects will be asked to maintain their usual diet and exercise regime. At the end of the run-in period, subjects fulfilling the inclusion/exclusion criteria at this stage will be randomized either to the intervention arm or control arm using computerized random number tables. The measured parameters will include, 24-h diet recall, food frequency questionnaire, anthropometry including circumferences, height and weight, and blood parameters including blood glucose (fasting), serum insulin (fasting), HbA1c and lipid profile.
This study is conducted to evaluate validity of Diabetes Risk Assessment in Dentistry Score (DDS) in Indian population as a screening tool to identify patients with prediabetes and undiagnosed type 2 diabetes in dental setting. The DDS score of the patient will be correlated with the HbA1c levels and periodontal status of the patient. Such a study has been conducted in Germany but none has been validated in Indian population. Hence this study aims to assess the performance of DDS screening tool in Indian population.
Dental caries, particularly in primary molars, significantly affects children's oral health and overall well-being. Traditional management with stainless steel crowns (SSCs) involves significant tooth reduction and advanced dental skills. Introduced in the 1970s, the Hall technique offers a less invasive alternative, minimizing tooth reduction compared to SSCs. The SMART Hall technique represents a further evolution, emphasizing atraumatic cavity preparation using hand instruments. It offers advantages like minimal or no tooth reduction, minimized discomfort, improved patient cooperation, shorter treatment times, and cost-effectiveness. Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) emerges as a promising non-invasive approach for managing dental caries in primary teeth, though it may cause temporary tooth discoloration. However, comparative evaluation with traditional SSC restorations remains limited. To address this gap, a randomized clinical trial will evaluate the treatment outcomes of the SMART Hall technique versus conventional SSC restoration for managing occluso-proximal carious lesions (ICDAS CODE 3/4/5) in primary molars of young patients. Children aged 3 to 9 years requiring restorations will be included, assessing clinical outcomes, treatment time duration, and radiographical outcomes of both techniques at specific follow-up intervals of 3 months & 6 months. This split mouth study will explore Clinical outcomes, radiographical outcomes, treatment time duration, and patient's pain perception with the chosen treatment modality. The findings will provide insights into the effectiveness and feasibility of the SMART Hall technique compared to the traditional SSC approach, informing evidence-based decision-making in pediatric dentistry and influencing treatment recommendations for preserving the health and function of primary molars in young children.
