There are about 21062 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Italy. 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.
Identification of clinical and instrumental parameters that could predict the outcome of surgical decompression of lumbar degenerative stenosis.
The aim of this study is the evaluation of clinical and dosimetric aspects, tolerance, and effectiveness of radiotherapy treatments in the head and neck region. Eligible patients undergoing radiotherapy for primary or secondary neoplasms localized in the head and neck anatomical region.
Evaluation of clinical and dosimetric aspects, tolerance, and effectiveness of thoracic radiotherapy treatments in patients undergoing radiotherapy for primary or secondary neoplasms localized in the thoracic anatomical region.
Patients eligible undergoing total body irradiation as candidates for bone marrow or peripheral stem cell transplant.
In this observational study patients treated at European Institute of Oncology with radiotherapy to limbs will be included
Evaluation of clinical and dosimetric aspects, tolerance, and effectiveness of abdominal-pelvic region radiotherapy treatments in patients undergoing radiotherapy for primary or secondary neoplasms localized in the tabdominal-pelvic region.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ACU193 infusions administered once every four weeks (Q4W) in slowing cognitive and functional decline as compared to placebo in participants with early Alzheimer's disease.
Brief Summary: Eating problems and in particular food selectivity is a condition that worsens a long-life disorder such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) , both on an individual level, both on family and social ones . Children (2-6 years) diagnosed with ASD according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5 Edition (DSM5) criteria were enrolled in an observational, cross-sectional and multicentric study conducted by three different Italian clinical centers. Regarding this sample, principal aims of the study are to describe characteristics of food selectivity, to evaluate its correlation with ASD symptoms, with cognitive and adaptive functioning of ASD preschoolers, to describe its impact on parental stress.
The dilation of perivascular spaces can be the result of various etiopathogenetic processes. White matter atrophy can cause enlargement of these perivascular spaces (PVS) but also obstruction of fluid drainage systems (interstitial fluid, ISF) and metabolites, as evidenced by some recent studies. Focal stagnation of liquids and deposition of toxic material induce tissue hypoxia and neuroglial dysfunction. Dilation of PVS can be associated with changes in white matter and microhemorrhages. We want to study these etiopathogenetic phenomena by implementing specific MRI methods.
The National Vaccination Program, updated by the Ministry of Health in 2021, provides a new vaccination opportunity for frail patients against Herpes zoster virus (HZ). The new treatment option, on the other hand, is designed by combining VZV-specific antigen (gE) with an adjuvant system (AS01B) to induce antigen-specific cellular and humoral immune responses in individuals with preexisting immunity to VZV. Efficacy, assessed in people given two doses 2 months apart, is around 97% in those aged 50 years and 91% in those over 70 years. In the studies conducted, HZ-related hospitalizations were significantly reduced. The vaccine schedule calls for the administration of two doses 2 months apart. The current HZ Vaccination Program implemented at the regional level recommends its active and free offer in people from 18 years of age with congenital and/or acquired immunodepression, through a collaborative relationship involving, on the one hand, multispecialist and multiprofessional medical staff and, on the other hand, citizens called to play a role that is no longer passive but the subject of empowerment by consciously making their own health choices. The collaboration with ASL Roma1, in this sense, acquires value as guarantor of the supply of the adjuvanted recombinant anti-HZ vaccine and of the appropriate reporting of vaccination coverage, which to date is still far from the targets set by the PNPV'17-'19 in adults at risk for disease. The purpose of this study Single-center prospective longitudinal observational cohort study is to verify patients' compliance with the proposed vaccination, the effectiveness of counseling carried out by a multidisciplinary team in the hospital setting.
