There are about 3194 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Portugal. 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 purpose of this study was to confirm the preliminary evidence from early clinical trials that midostaurin may provide clinical benefit not only to AML patients with the FLT3-mutations but also in FLT3-MN (SR<0.05) AML (FLT3 mutant to wild type signal ratio below the 0.05 clinical cut-off). This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of midostaurin in combination with daunorubicin or idarubicin and cytarabine for induction and intermediate-dose cytarabine for consolidation, and midostaurin single agent post-consolidation therapy in newly diagnosed patients with FLT3-MN (SR<0.05) AML.
This study aimed to conduct a double-blind randomized pragmatic trial to evaluate the effects of off-the-shelf leucine metabolite supplements HMB-FA, HMB-Ca, alfa-HICA, on resistance training-induced changes in body composition, performance and biochemical markers of muscle damage. The investigators' working hypothesis is that so long as subjects adhered to a diet containing adequate energy and dietary protein, there would be no differences between those receiving the leucine metabolites - HMB-FA, HMB-Ca and alfa-HICA - when compared to a placebo consuming group.
The objective of this prospective, single-blind clinical investigation is to demonstrate the superiority of an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)-guided stent implantation strategy as compared to an angiography-guided stent implantation strategy in achieving larger post-PCI lumen dimensions and improving clinical cardiovascular outcomes in patients with high-risk clinical characteristics and/or with high-risk angiographic lesions.
Approximately 2000 patients eligible for elective treatment with a Carotid Stent according to hospital routine practice in centers across Europe will be enrolled in the study. The maximum number of patients enrolled at each site will be not limited. Follow-ups are scheduled at discharge, 30 days, and 1 year, as per local practice. Each patient will have follow-up contacts via hospital visit and/or telephone.
To investigate whether midazolam has any effect on postoperative pain in outpatient surgery, the investigators will assess the impact of different midazolam doses on pain scores 24h, 7 days and 3 months after open inguinal hernia repair. The investigators hypothesize that patients being administered higher midazolam doses will refer more pain.
Six patients with a single unit implant in the anterior maxilla (from premolar to premolar), after at least 3 months with provisional implant supported restoration will be submitted to definitive implant impressions. Informed consents and local ethical committee clearance will be obtained. Patients will be submitted to a silicon impression with a customized impression coping from which a conventional cast will be obtained and scanned with D2000 (3Shape) and to an intraoral scan with Trios (3Shape). Standard Tessellation Language (STL) files will be obtained from both procedures and imported to reverse engineering software Geomagic Control X (3D Systems) and the distance between both scans will be calculated in a colored 3D map. From this map, two outcomes will be analyzed: the changes in soft tissues around implants with the two techniques (primary outcome) and the discrepancy between both scans in the teeth adjacent to the implants (secondary outcome).
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of nervous system mobilization and exercise with exercise only on institutionalized older adults' postural control.
The objectives of this study are to: - Evaluate the effect of visual feedback on the intensity of low back pain, range of motion and function of pregnant and non-pregnant women with chronic low back pain. - Determine the association between low back pain, catastrophizing, fear of movement and low back perception/image.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of visual feedback of the posterior region of the cervical spine on pain intensity and range of motion.
The primary objectives of this study are to: - Evaluate recruitment procedures and adherence rates; - Evaluate the ability to understand the concepts of pain neurophysiology; - Evaluate the acceptability of an intervention program based on pain neuroscience education and exercise by institutionalized older adults and the institutions where they are.
