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 is to evaluate the change in indicators of lifestyle and its effect on cardiometabolic biomarkers as a response to an integrative mother-child intervention to promote healthy lifestyles and prevent food insecurity and child malnutrition in vulnerable communities in the Yaqui Valley, Sonora, Mexico. The intervention consists in a program including nutrition education and physical activity training, with a total duration of 6 months. The proposal addresses the problem in an integrative and non-conventional way, generating new multifactorial knowledge of cardiometabolic and behavioral markers, and their relationship with each other, helping to reduce family food insecurity and improving lifestyle and health, and to support vulnerable families in achieving social justice in the field of nutrition.
The study will aim to find out if the drug andexanet alfa is safe and effective in preventing major bleeding during urgent surgery or invasive procedures. The study will compare the use of andexanet alfa to the usual care given at the study center.
This study aims to perform a digital intervention in patients with type 2 diabetes to analyze the efficacy of the digital intervention Adhera® Fatigue Digital Program in order to improve diabetes self-management and improve clinical outcomes, including chronic condition-related fatigue. This will be done through a randomized clinical trial in 3 of the main health centers in the city of Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico. The digital health intervention is designed to be used for approximately 3 months. The study will enroll 150 participants (75 in control group and 75 in experimental group) who are patients with type 2 diabetes. There will be educational contents and personalized motivational messages through the Adhera Health Recommender System.
The study is aimed at exploring the popularity, impact, and usefulness of using YouTube in learning anatomy as perceived by Mexican medical students studying at different universities along the country
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an online psychological care program to reduce anxiety, depression and negative psychological consequences and to increase a sense of coherence in the process of diagnostic evaluation and/or screening of mammary glands in women who attend a breast clinic. There will be an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group will receive the psychological intervention through a virtual platform and the control group will be given visual material with the information. This platform will be designed based on the principles of user experience (UX).
A clinical study of propranolol for the treatment of Kaposi Sarcoma in children and adults. This study will be an open-label single armed treatment trial that will test the effectiveness and the safety of treating Kaposi Sarcoma with propranolol.
Background: Multiple studies have pointed to the harmful potential of licit and illicit drugs. as agents associated with neoplastic processes and other non-communicable diseases, for which reason It has become a problem of global size. Objective: The central objective is to determine the cytogenotoxic damage in the oral mucosa of people with chronic drug use, as well as establishing the therapeutic effect of acid administration folic on said damage. Methodology: Quasi-experimental study, pretest-posttest design with no control group. equivalent, in subjects with substance abuse and healthy subjects. The intervention will consist of administration of 15 mg of folic acid divided into 3 doses per day. Mucosal samples will be taken orally in duplicate to each participant to determine the frequency of micronuclei (MN), bursts cells (NBUD), binucleated cells (BN), condensed chromatin (CC), karyorrhexis (CR), pyknosis (PIC) and caryolysis (CL) at different time events: pre-treatment, 15 days and 30 days. So as a survey to determine consumption patterns of psychoactives, sociodemographic data, dietary and exposure to known cytogenotoxic agents. Resources and infrastructure: The study will be carried out in the pharmacology laboratory of the Center University of Tonalá, who will make their equipment and reagents available. Group experience: The research group has over a decade of experience in the development of projects related to mutagenesis and cyto-genotoxic agents. Development time: The project will be developed from February 2023 to August of 2023
Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of a Canaloplasty Device in Subjects with Open-Angle Glaucoma
In Mexico City, the main cause of mortality among people living with HIV (PLHIV) continues to be opportunistic infections (OIs). Early detection of OIs allows their timely treatment and improves their prognosis. The use of rapid diagnostic tests (RDT) based on antigens of the most frequent causative agents of OIs allows adequate screening of these patients and facilitates decision making at the point of care. Unfortunately, these studies are not widely available in the different PLHIV care centers in the CDMX. We will conduct an open-label, non-inferiority uncontrolled clinical trial to investigate the diagnostic performance of urinary lipoarabinomannan, urinary Histoplasma antigen and serum Cryptococcus antigen in patients presenting for care with advanced HIV in CDMX, supported by rapid cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) testing with lateral flow technology. Four referral hospitals will participate over 12 months. All patients with diagnosed HIV disease and suspected advanced disease presenting for care at participating centers will be included in the study. An inventory of approximately 1000 RDT will be obtained and distributed among the participating sites. A study coordinator will be hired and will visit each site once a week to collect the study variables and follow up on the included patients. The primary outcome of the study will be the percentage of patients with advanced disease who present with diagnoses made by RDT compared to historical controls of patients diagnosed with OI in 2022 at participating centers by conventional methods. Secondary outcomes will be time to initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART), time to initiation of OI treatment, and 30-day mortality after HIV diagnosis.
The treatment of adult patients with congenital heart disease (ACHD) and heart failure (HF) represents a great challenge since, to date, there is no standardized guideline for this specific population. Although new treatments for HF have been proposed, such as Sodium-glucose Cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) Inhibitors and neprilisin and angiotensin receptor inhibitors, the benefit of these drugs in patients with HF associated with congenital heart disease in adults has not yet been demonstrated. For this reason, this study pretends to evaluate the efficacy of empagliflozin and sacubitril/valsartan in this population.
