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 main objective of the tests is to establish saliva collection with Salivette® Cortisol.
The researchers will compare protein intake patterns per day and per meal among older adults from different countries. The analysis will also compare the proportion of inadequate protein intake per day (different cut points), per meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner), and the number of meals per day that reach an adequate protein content.
Pancreatic head malignancies are aggressive cancers that are often inoperable when they are diagnosed. In the ~20% of patients who are diagnosed when the disease is still operable, surgery is the only treatment that can provide a chance of cure. Unfortunately, up to 75% of patients undergoing surgery will have the cancer come back (recur). One of the reasons for this is the challenge of removing the whole tumour with some surrounding non-cancerous tissue to ensure that every tumour cell has been removed. This is difficult because there are many structures very close to the pancreas (such as the blood vessels that supply the intestines) that cannot be removed. A recent review study of >1700 patients who had a Whipple's operation (the cancer operation that is performed to remove the head of pancreas) and found that whilst the majority of patients had cancer recurrence in distant sites (like the liver) that would not be affected by how the operation was performed, 12% of patients had the cancer recur just at the site of where the operation had been; this is known as 'local' recurrence. This suggests that a small amount of cancer was not removed at the time of surgery in these patients. Very few studies have looked at the relationship between the Computerised Tomography (CT) scan before surgery and the histology results (information about the tumour after it has been examined under the microscope) and whether this can predict exactly where the tumour recurs. If investigators can find factors that predict which patients get local only recurrence, investigators may be able to offer improved surgical techniques or other therapies during or immediately after the operation to these patients, hopefully leading to improved cure rates. This retrospective international study will look at these factors in patients who underwent a Whipple's operation for pancreatic cancer, bile duct cancer or ampullary cancer over a three year period between 2012 and 2015. Participating centres will provide data on pre-operative scans, complications around the time of surgery, any therapies (e.g. chemotherapy) that the patients had and if and where the cancer recurred. With this information, investigators hope to find ways to predict which patients will get local-only recurrence, so researchers can select them for future studies to see if additional treatments can improve the chance of cure from surgery for these patients.
To gain insights on the application, use and effectiveness of Frisolac Gold Intensive HA and Frisolac Gold PEP AC with reference to improvement of CMPA symptoms and to determine the methodology used by Mexican Health Care Professionals (HCPs) in the clinical practice (i.e. diagnosis and dietary management) of CMPA in Mexican children (≤24 months) diagnosed with or suspected of CMPA.
Prospective study including Mexican patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and class 1 obesity, undergoing laparoscopic gastric bypass. The objective was to determine short, mid-and long-term outcomes (weight loss, metabolic, morbidity and diabetes remission). A subanalysis was included, based on preoperative usage of one (Group A) or more antidiabetics ± insulin (Group B).
ACTIV-1 IM is a master protocol designed to evaluate multiple investigational agents for the treatment of moderately or severely ill patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The research objectives are to evaluate each agent with respect to speed of recovery, mortality, illness severity, and hospital resource utilization. Each agent will be evaluated as add-on therapy to the standard of care (SoC) in use at the local clinics, including remdesivir (provided). The SoC may change during the course of the study based on other research findings. Comparisons of the agents among themselves is not a research objective. The study population corresponds to moderately and severely ill patients infected with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) virus. Recruitment will target patients already hospitalized for treatment of COVID-19 infection as well as patients being treated for COVID-19 infection in Emergency Departments while waiting to be admitted to the hospital. Patients both in and out of the ICU are included in the study population.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the time to confirmed clinical recovery in participants hospitalized with COVID-19. Candidate agents will be evaluated frequently for efficacy and safety, with candidate agents being added to and/or removed from the study on an ongoing basis, depending on the results of their evaluation.
This observational, descriptive, retrospective study the clinical and imaging findings of 10 lower legs of 5 patients with previous history of injection of modeling substances for cosmetic purposes at buttocks and hips ande developed lower limb edema. Lower limb lymphedema index and lymphoscintigraphy findings were evaluated and reported.
This is a randomised, open-label, parallel-group, pre-surgical study aimed to investigate the biological effects, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of different doses of oral AZD9833 in post-menopausal women with primary breast cancer
This study reports the experience in free tissue transfer in the elderly population by a single surgeon in the private practice setting in Mexico city and the potential criticism that could arise from adverse events in lower-volume practice situations will be addressed. Investigator will answer the question about the age as the variable of interest in this series in which age was not a factor in deciding reconstructive methods, and examine complication rates.
