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.
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 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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate impact of Minimally Invasive Non-Surgical Therapy (MINST) with and without splinting on clinical periodontal parameters and Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) in periodontitis patients with mobile anterior teeth. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does splinting provide additional benefit to MINST alone for improving the clinical periodontal parameters ? - Does splinting provide additional benefit to MINST alone for improving OHRQoL ?
Bruxism is a non-functional repetitive jaw-muscle activity characterized by grinding or clenching the teeth. Bruxism, characterized by the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, is a prevalent parafunctional habit affecting individuals of all ages. Stress, anxiety, and depression are the psychological factors most commonly associated with the presence of bruxism.
This study aims to compare MCAT technique (supraperiosteal approach with coronal advancement of flap) with VISTA technique(subperiosteal approach with coronal advancement of flap), Further, it may be hypothesized that supraperiosteal placement of graft material (in MCAT technique) may be better due to better blood supply, and MCAT technique utilizes a microsurgical concept, including microsurgical blades and suture material, which improves wound healing and establishes a better esthetic result and results in better outcome in terms of root coverage percentage compared to VISTA. Therefore, this study aims to compare minimally invasive technique MCAT and VISTA using VCMX as a graft in RT3 gingival recession in anterior teeth.
