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.
Sodium carbonate has several properties that may be beneficial in the management of bacterial biofilm in gingivitis patients. The aim of this RCT study is to clinically evaluate the clinical properties of two toothpaste containing Sodium carbonate 67% and fluoride toothpaste that contains no bicarbonate on patients with gengivitis.
Desmoid tumors (DT) are uncommon tumors that arise from musculoaponeurotic structures. Despite benign, they can cause pain and disability due to their tendency to be locally aggressive. Cryoablation, a technique used in interventional radiology, has gained popularity in recent years as a treatment option for sporadic DT. This involves repeated cycles of freezing, leading to cell death. Recent studies showed that percutaneous image-guided cryoablation appears to be safe and effective for local control for patients with extra-abdominal desmoid tumors.Although changes in the heterogeneity of tumors are commonly known, they are often ignored in response criteria that only evaluate tumor size in a single dimension, such as Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1). Nevertheless, MRI can reveal early changes in tumor heterogeneity in responding tumors, resulting from a reduction in cellular area and an increase in fibro-necrotic content, before any dimensional changes occur. These changes in heterogeneity can be quantified using a radiomics approach. The aim of this study is to develop radiomics response criteria dedicated to the evaluation of DT treated with cryoablation as a first line treatment and to compare their performance with those of alternative radiologic response criteria for predicting progression according to RECIST 1.1.
This is a prospective non randomized phase two trial evaluating the feasibility of a ten fraction accelerated hypofractionated radiotherapy schedule with simultaneous integrated boost risk adapted in patients undergoing breast conserving surgery for early breast cancer
Multicenter, non-interventional, retrospective/prospective biological study on patients affected by head and neck tumors, for which the collection and use of tissue samples, blood and saliva for the detection of HPV-DNA/RNA and miRNA.
This clinical investigation is intended to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Volt™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) Catheter Sensor Enabled™, the Volt™ PFA Generator, Agilis™ NxT Steerable Introducer Dual-Reach™, and EnSite™ X EP System EnSite™ Pulsed Field Ablation Module (for simplicity of reference this device collection will hereafter be referred to as the Volt™ PFA system) for the treatment of symptomatic, recurrent, drug-refractory paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation.
Maxillary sinus augmentation is one of the most performed procedures to increase the bone quantity of the atrophic maxilla in order to allow implant placement. The aim of the present case series was to describe a surgical protocol to perform maxillary sinus augmentation with the "bone lid technique", and its outcomes in a cohort of patients eligible for the procedure.
There is an increasing interest in High resolution manometry (HRM) in the preoperative assessment of patients with obesity, in order to identify the best surgical option. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has been known to increase the risk of gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). Different techniques have been recently developed and validated to offer to these patients protection against pathologic GERD after SG. A recent study found a significant correlation between straight leg raise (SLR) maneuver during HRM and a positive pH-study. However, these maneuver has not been validated in an obese population, therefore the normality cut-off remain unknown. A multicenter study with a large number of patients undergoing pre-operative assessment for bariatric surgery could provide a precise threshold to predict pathologic esophageal acid exposure time.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LY3541860 in adult participants with multiple sclerosis that gets worse and gets better. The study will last about 9 months with additional 6 months follow-up.
Type: retrospective observational multicenter trial. Population of interest: adult patients suffering from thoraco-abdominal trauma undergoing both non-operative and operative management. Hypothesis: Adrenal gland injury is a rare finding after blunt thoracoabdominal trauma. Short-term outcomes of blunt adrenal gland injury (BAGI) described in literature are contradictory. Reports on the outcomes related to this injury are variable and consider heterogeneous populations of trauma patients Aim: This study aims to explore the burden related to BAGI in an homogeneous population of patients sustaining blunt thoraco-abdominal trauma treated in different institution
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and drug levels of CC-97540 in participants with Relapsing Forms of Multiple Sclerosis (RMS) or Progressive Forms of Multiple Sclerosis (PMS).
