NCT ID: NCT06068010 Completed - Clinical trials for Ultraviolet-Induced Change in Normal Skin

UVA Protection Factors of SPF 50 and 50+ Face Sunscreens

Start date: April 20, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this observational study is to use the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 24442:2011 in vivo method for assessment of the Ultraviolet A Protection Factor (UVAPF) of topical sunscreen products in healthy adults. The main question it aims to answer is to determine the degree of UVA-protection against UVA radiation. An area of each subject's skin is exposed to UVA light without any protection and another (different) area is exposed after application of the sunscreen product under test. One further area is exposed after application of a reference UVA sunscreen formulation (S2), which is used to validate the procedure.

NCT ID: NCT06043089 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

Impact of Beetroot Supplementation in Athletes

Start date: August 23, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Several previous studies observed a positive effect of beetroot supplementation on sports performance in athletes, mainly in endurance performance. However, less attention has been paid to its effects on short-duration performance, especially in youth athletes. Moreover, only a few previous investigations performed biochemical analyses, including pro-oxidant balance assessments. It is especially important because chronic nitrate intake might directly cause the production of reactive nitrogen species and reactive oxygen species in other subcellular compartments, leading to more oxidative stress. Additionally, no previous study verified the impact of beetroot intake on sleep.

NCT ID: NCT06038981 Completed - Bariatric Surgery Clinical Trials

Assessment of the Impact of Perioperative Administration of Tranexamic Acid on Bleeding After Sleeve Gastrectomy

Start date: July 4, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Enhanced recovery after bariatric surgery imposes a significant reduction in length of hospital stay. However beneficial for the overall recovery it reduces the hospital observation time. after a laparoscopic surgery during which one of the longest resection line in surgery or anastomosis are created. Therefore, discovering possible safe and effective ways of pharmacologically reducing surgical blood loss and reducing the risk of postoperative bleeding would be an invaluable addition to the protocol. The systemic use of tranexamic acid (TXA) has been shown to be effective in many types of surgery, reducing the incidence of post-operative bleeding and thereby reducing the rate of reoperation.

NCT ID: NCT06020001 Completed - Clinical trials for Upper Respiratory Tract Infection Bacterial

Clinical Evaluation of the AP203 Plant Extract Mixture in Adult Patients With Increased Incidence of Viral and/or Bacterial Upper Respiratory Tract Infections

Start date: October 14, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy and safety of AP203 preparation (RESCOVIN®) in a group of patients with increased incidence to viral and/or bacterial upper respiratory tract infections.

NCT ID: NCT06010121 Completed - Clinical trials for Bioavailability of Vitamin D

Comparison of Bioavailability of Liposomal and Traditional Formulation of Vitamin D3

Start date: February 17, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study was to compare the profiles of 25-hydroxyvitamin D serum concentration in healthy adults after 4 weeks of using vitamin D supplementation either in a liposomal or a traditional formulation.

NCT ID: NCT06004570 Completed - Eye Abnormalities Clinical Trials

Effects of a Combination of Polyphenol-rich Extracts on the Protection of Retinal Cells Against Blue Light in the Prevention of Ocular Diseases

Start date: June 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to confirm that daily supplementation with a product containing a standardized combination of polyphenol-rich extracts has a protective effect against potential blue-light-induced damage to retinal cells.

NCT ID: NCT06002139 Completed - Anxiety Clinical Trials

Virtual Reality in Orthopedic Rehabilitation

Start date: June 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study's objective is to evaluate the efficacy of implemented Virtual Reality therapy for patients who have undergone lower limb arthroplasty and are in inpatient rehabilitation. The study aim to examine its influence on reducing anxiety levels, mitigating depressive symptoms, enhancing motivation for elderly patients to participate in physiotherapy, and improving their overall functional state and fall risk.

NCT ID: NCT06001957 Completed - Coronary Aneurysm Clinical Trials

Whole Exome Sequencing in Coronary Artery Ectasia

Start date: March 23, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this observational study is to assess the role of the whole exome sequencing (WES) application in patients with giant coronary artery ectasia (CAE) with a high-risk of genetic background. The main question it aims to answer are: - the assessment of role of WES in CAE - the detection of novel pathogenic mutations associated with CAE development

NCT ID: NCT05995145 Completed - Low Back Pain Clinical Trials

Active Mobilization of Hamstring for Non-specific Low Back Pain and Musculoskeletal Discomfort During Prolonged Sitting

Start date: December 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Hip flexion is a normal part of everyday functional activities, including walking and sitting. The length of the hamstring influences on movement of the pelvis during hip flexion, consequently influencing lumbar lordosis. In most activities, the hamstring muscles are active and it is necessary to keep them at normal length. Sitting posture is responsible for the loss of the natural curvature of the lumbar spine, because the hip flexion and pelvic extension flatten the lumbar vertebrae (i.e., lumbopelvic rhythm). Furthermore tightened hamstring increases posterior pelvic tilt and reduces lumbar lordosis, which can tend to low back pain (LBP). Stretching exercises play an important role in both the prevention and treatment of LBP. One important option will be exercise protocol which will combine the active hamstring flexibility exercises with hip flexion mobilization and the development of the habit of correct hip flexion technique, protecting the lower spine. The aim of this RCT is to present a protocol for evaluating the effect of 8-week active hamstring flexibility exercises with hip flexion mobilization in reducing LBP and perceived musculoskeletal discomfort during prolonged sitting in young adults with non-specific LBP.

NCT ID: NCT05994092 Completed - Clinical trials for Blood Lactate Decrease

Influence of Voluntary Isocapnic Hyperpnea on Blood Lactate Level and Rate of Perceived Exertion

Start date: June 10, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

All the study participants performed the Wingate Anaerobic Test (WAnT) with maximal effort. The experimental group (E) performed a 3-minute recovery protocol based on low-intensity breathing Voluntary Isocapnic Hyperpnea exercises 20 minuter after cessation of the exercise, whereas the control group (C) used passive recovery only. All study participants were advised to sit during the 30-minute period, with minimal walking in order to meet the physiological needs allowed. The blood samples were taken 3 minutes and 30 minutes after cessation of the exercise to measure the bLa. The Borg CR-10 Scale was presented to the participants 3 minutes and 30 minutes after cessation of the exercise to measure the rate of perceived exertion (RPE) (Borg, 1998).
