There are about 9702 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Poland. 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.
- evaluation of the quality of life of patients before and after laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer and cancer of the right part of the intestine at different stages of the disease, whether it depends on the size of the tumor, neoadjuvant treatment, type of cancer and its location - Multidimensional assessment of perceived social support (considering three sources of support: significant person, family and friends) of patients before and after laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer and cancer of the right part of the intestine, whether it depends on the stage of the disease, the location of the tumor lesion and the treatment undertaken
Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is the standard of care for newborns with moderate to severe hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) born at 35 weeks or more of gestation. Many neonatal units do not use enteral feeding during TH, in fear of increased risk of complications. Withholding enteral feedings during TH lacks supporting evidence. The aim of the study is to determine if enteral feeding during TH in patients with HIE is safe and assess its effects. Investigators will perform multicenter randomized controlled study in level III neonatal intensive care units on infants qualified for TH. Infants will be randomized into 2 groups: (1) unfed during 72 hours of TH; (2) fed group, which will start receive enteral feeding with mother milk or human donor breast milk at 10 ml/kg/day during first day of TH, 20 ml/kg/day during second day, 30 ml/kg/day during third day. The primary outcome will be (1) combined necrotizing enterocolitis or death, (2) length of hospital stay. The secondary outcomes will be (1) time to full enteral feeding, (2) late-onset sepsis, (3) Test of Infant Motor Performance scoring, (4) MRI scoring, (5) MR spectroscopy parameters.
The study aims to assess the interfacial plane blocks' effect on pain level, course of postoperative rehabilitation, and anti-inflammatory analgesic effect.
Study RAD-GRIN-201 is a phase 1B/2A trial to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and potential efficacy of radiprodil in participants with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) or Focal Cortical Dysplasia (FCD) type II. The study is open-label, so all participants will be treated with radiprodil. Subjects' participation in the study is expected to last up to six months in Part A and one year in Part B/long-term treatment period. The treatment period in Part B may be extended based on a favorable benefit/risk profile.
Probiotics are "live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host". Accumulating evidence indicates their effect in mental health restoration. Beneficial neuropsychological and psychobiological effects are particularly well substantiated in clinical samples. However, it is not clearly documented whether probiotic supplementation reduces depressive and anxiety symptoms in healthy volunteers experiencing temporal deterioration in mental functioning while facing a stressful event. The combination of Lactobacillus helveticus R0052 and Bifidobacterium longum R0175 is particularly well studied in terms of its central nervous system action with significantly deciphered mechanism. As a result, this combination is particularly promising to study the effect of mental health improvement in healthy volunteers facing a stressful event. The aim of this project is to assess the impact of a 8-week supplementation with probiotic combination of Lactobacillus helveticus R0052 and Bifidobacterium longum R0175 strains in the daily dose of 3 × 10^9 colony forming units on mental health measures and oral microbiota composition and metabolome in healthy young adults facing a psychologically stressful event. The aim will be achieved by comparing the probiotic combination supplement to placebo in a randomized triple-blind controlled trial settings with a participant allocation ratio of 1:1. The summer academic examination session and the upcoming first take of the final exam in pharmacology at third year of medical studies will be a model of a stressful event. The participants will supplement their diets with probiotic/placebo for 8 weeks before the exam. After giving written informed consent, before the supplementation (relatively stress-free time period in terms of academic activities) the participants will provide background sociodemographic, anthropometric and psychometric data. At that time, participants will also give samples of saliva to assess cortisol and selected cytokines concentrations as well as salivary microbiome and metabolome. At the end of supplementation, a day before the final exam, participants will donate salivary samples and do psychometric tests for the second time to assess the same parameters as at the beginning of the study. Participants will also do a pre-exam test in pharmacology (not considered a formal academic assessment) as a comparator for the results of the formal examination held a day after.
The purpose of this study was to verify the effect of chronic 12-week high-dose Colostrum Bovinum (COL) and placebo (PLA) supplementation on immunological, hematological and biochemical markers, as well as physical capacity and discipline-specific exercise performance in endurance athletes, in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial.
Total intravenous general anesthesia and combined general anesthesia are recognized methods used during anesthesia. They allow you to effectively control pain and reduce the number of complications associated with taking large doses of opioid drugs. It should be emphasized that both methods of anesthesia are currently approved for use in routine anesthetic practice, and only the experience, knowledge and preferences of the anesthesiologist determine which technique will be used in a given patient. Both techniques are used in everyday anesthetic practice, but there is no conclusive scientific data confirming the superiority of either method in patients undergoing bariatric surgery, therefore currently only the individual experience, knowledge and preferences of the anesthesiologist determines which technique will be used in a given patient.
Comparison of safety and efficacy of two scleral fixation intraocular lens (IOL) methods of four-point scleral fixation ( Akreos AO60) and the Yamane technique (AcrySof MA60AC)
The main purpose of this study is to determine if retatrutide can significantly lower the incidence of serious heart-related complications or prevent the worsening of kidney function. The trial will enroll adults with body mass index 27 kg/m^2 or higher and Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and/or chronic kidney disease. The study will last for about 5 years. Participants will have up to 27 clinic visits with the study doctor.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia affecting millions globally, with projections indicating a doubling of cases by 2050. AF is linked to heightened cardiovascular risks like stroke and increased healthcare costs. Ablation, targeting the arrhythmia substrate, is a method to manage AF, yet recurrence rates remain high (20-45% in the first year). Studies highlight the impact of comorbidities, AF characteristics, ablation techniques, and myocardial remodeling markers on AF progression and ablation efficacy. However, there's no definitive guidance on selecting these factors for predicting treatment success. The aim of this study is to investigate predictors of successful AF ablation in the following areas: (a) clinical factors, (b) electrophysiological, (c) electrocardiographic, (d) ultrasound, (e) cardiac anatomy, (f) biomarkers.
