There are about 5012 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Mexico. 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 aim of the study is to compare the effect of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) versus treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), in patients with diagnosis of Functional Neurological Non Epileptic Seizure Disorder (PNES).
We investigated the use of a copper sulfate eye drop (IVMED-80) for the treatment of keratoconus. Preliminary laboratory data shows that the addition of copper sulfate increase crosslinking of the structural proteins of the cornea thereby halting the progressing corneal thinning and bulging seen in keratoconus. We conducted a Phase 1/2a study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of a 6-week and a 16-week regimen using IVMED-80 and studied its impact on ocular safety and the change/progression in patients' vision and clinical measurements.
This study is open to adults with bronchiectasis. People can join the study if they produce sputum and have a history of flare-ups (also called exacerbations). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1291583 helps people with bronchiectasis. Participants are put into 4 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in groups 1, 2, and 3 get different doses of BI 1291583. Participants in group 4 get placebo. Placebo tablets look like BI 1291583 tablets, but do not contain any medicine. Participants take the tablets once a day. Participants are in the study for between 6 months and 1 year. During this time, they visit the study site about 10 times and get about 5 phone calls from the site staff. The doctors document when participants experience flare-ups during the study. The time to the first flare-ups is compared between the treatment groups. Doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
Patients with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) show autoantibodies that indicate an autoimmune pathogenesis. Glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies (GADA) are most prevalent islet autoantibodies in European patients with LADA. In this sense, it is considered that it is sufficient to determine GADA to identify subjects with LADA from patients with T2D for research purposes. Therefore, the aim was to investigated the presence of GADA in serum of subjects with T2D and its relationship with clinical criteria, metabolic control, drug treatment, and diabetes complications to identify possible patients with LADA in a hospital in southeastern Mexico is worthwhile. The sample was recruited at the Diabetes Clinic of the Regional Hospital of High Specialty "Dr. Gustavo A. Rovirosa Pérez", in the period from January 2020 to May 2021. The diagnosis was based in accordance with World Health Organization (WHO, 1999) criteria. Inclusion criteria: 1) patients previously diagnosed with T2D, 2) absence of insulin requirement for at least 6 months after diagnosis, 3) > 30 and < 50 years old at diabetes diagnosis, 4) BMI < 40 kg/m2, 5) subjects who agreed to participate in the study and signed the informed consent before the interview. Serum GADA and other biochemical concentrations were determined by an enzymatic immunoassay method (Human Anti-Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase ELISA Kit; MyBioSource).
The clinical and biochemical improvement observed in kidney transplant (RT) recipients is remarkable. The correct functioning of the allograft depends on various factors such as the donor's age, the alloimmune response, the ischemia-reperfusion injury, arterial hypertension, and the interstitial fibrosis of the allograft, among others. Antihypertensive drugs are necessary for arterial hypertension patients to avoid or reduce the probability of affecting graft function in RT recipients. Oxidative stress (OS) is another complex pathophysiological process with the ability to alter post-transplant kidney function. The study's objective was to determine the effect of the administration of Enalapril, Losartan, or not antihypertensive medication on the oxidative state in RT recipients at the beginning of the study and one year of follow-up.
Introduction: Overweight and obesity are associated with an unbalanced energy intake caused by unhealthy dietary habits, including a constant consumption of energy-dense foods, saturated and trans fats, refined sugars, along with a deficient protein and dietary fiber intake. Pulse consumption has been demonstrated to improve long-term body weight management. Despite these benefits, in several regions, the consumption of pulses does not meet the local recommendations. Consequently, pulse research has increased widely in order to provide food alternatives reformulated with pulses to promote their consumption. Hypothesis: The consumption of a common bean baked snack (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and cooked beans increases satiety, reduces energy intake and produce a low glycemic response in people with overweight and normal weight. Objectives: Evaluate the acute effect of a common bean baked snack and cooked bean consumption on subjective satiety and energy intake in people with overweight and normal weight. Material and Methods: Randomized crossover clinical trial, 18 subjects with normal weight and 18 subjects with overweight, 18-50 years old, consumption of 40 g of common bean baked snack, cooked beans and white bread (control). Subjective satiety, energy intake and glycemic response. - Intervention A: Common bean baked snack. - Intervention B: Cooked beans. - Control: White bread. Additionally, the glycemic index will be determined under the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 26642:2010. 10 subjects with normal weight or overweight, 18-50 years old, consumption of 54 g of common bean baked snack and 25 g of anhydrous glucose. - Intervention A: Common bean baked snack. - Control: Anhydrous glucose
Background: Scarce information exists in relation to the comparison of seroconversion and adverse events following immunization (AEFI) with different SARS-COV2 vaccines. Our aim was to correlate the magnitude of the antibody response to vaccination with previous clinical conditions and AEFI. Methods: A multicentric comparative study where SARS-CoV-2 spike 1-2 IgG antibodies IgG titers are being measured at baseline, 21-28 days after the first and second dose (when applicable), six months and a year of the following vaccines: BNT162b2 mRNA, mRNA-1273, Gam-COVID-Vac, Coronavac, ChAdOx1-S, Ad5-nCoV and Ad26.COV2. Mixed model and Poisson generalized linear models will be performed for the analyses.
Acute diarrhea (AD) has been a public health problem throughout the history of Mexico. According to the epidemiological surveillance system, between 2008-2017, five to six million new cases of AD occurred per year. Clinical presentation of viral gastroenteritis ranges from an asymptomatic state to diarrhea with severe dehydration. Viral etiology can be difficult to differentiate from those of gastroenteritis caused by enteric bacteria based solely on clinical presentation, especially due to the presence of leukocytes in stool, since it was thought that only diarrhea of bacterial etiology was present and what defines it as acute inflammatory diarrhea; therefore, laboratory studies are essential to make a specific diagnosis. In addition to methylene blue test traditionally performed to describe the presence of leukocytes in stool, multiplex PCR is an automated system in which the extraction, amplification and detection of nucleic acid occurs in a single closed pouch. The panel includes for the etiological identification of bacteria, parasites and viruses. Probiotics are effective for acute infectious diarrhea caused by bacteria, but there are inconsistent results on the effectiveness of probiotics for diarrhea caused by viruses. It is important to note that there are no studies in the adult population with acute diarrhea of viral etiology identified by PCR Multiplex in our environment and the use of probiotics to reduce the period of convalescence. Mexico also lacks for detection tests to identify the pathogen, that can be used routinely in clinical practice, as other countries has shown the economical, clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction results with it. In a review, S. boulardii shows an effectiveness in 4 of the 6 studies where it was used as a treatment in acute adult viral diarrhea, where it was used as a treatment. Based on this review, because it considers the adult population, it will be used S. boulardii as a treatment in patients diagnosed with acute viral diarrhea, to reduce the days of presence of associated symptoms. The Patient Global Impression scale (PGI) is the Patient-reported outcomes counterpart to the Clinical Global Impressions scale. The PGIS are 1-item questionnaire that ask an individual patient to rate the severity of a specific condition at baseline and or to rate at endpoint the perceived change in his/her condition in response to therapy; in the other hand PGIC measures change in clinical status
The objective of this study is to determine the effects of the ketogenic diet on the frequency of non-epileptic seizures in patients with functional neurological symptoms disorder compared to a healthy diet.
Ankle sprain is the most common sprain. Their care entails a high cost due to the incapacity for work that it generates. An early and timely intervention for the treatment of ankle sprain reduces the days of disability and functional recovery is faster. Strategies must be generated to provide timely care in rehabilitation. Telerehabilitation is a viable option to partially solve this problem. The purpose of this study is evaluate the effectiveness of functional ankle recovery after a telerehabilitation program in patients with sprain in the first level of care. Material and method: Controlled clinical trial, 92 subjects with grade 1 and 2 ankle sprain will be included; they will be divided into two groups, with randomized allocation. One group will receive usual care (n = 41) for ankle sprain and another will receive regular care plus telerehabilitation (n = 41) through a digital platform course, it will consist of video and written instructions. Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) will be measured at baseline and weekly, until completing 4 weeks. Group experience: The group is trained for the development of the contents and the rehabilitation program, with clinical experience in evaluation, treatment and rehabilitation of ankle sprain.
