There are about 8452 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sweden. 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.
This study is aimed to validate the questionnaire called Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire on a Swedish cohort of children from 18 months to 15 years old with obstructive sleep disordered breathing.
Parent training programs in groups and over internet can help parents improve their interaction and communication with their children. There is however a lack knowledge of how programs work for parents of teenagers, as most studies have concerned younger children. Furthermore, most studies have been conducted on programs for selective populations with elevated risk. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of two universal preventive parenting programs for teenagers: The group-based program 'ABC-teen' and the online-based 'ParentWeb'. Both programs aim to strengthen the parent-adolescent relationship and reduce negative communication. The programs are developed in Sweden with content based on other established parenting programs (e.g., Comet, Incredible Years, the Triple P). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of the the two programs, with adolescent mental health as primary outcome. Several secondary outcome measures concerning parenting and parent-adolescent relationship were also collected. Parents were randomized to ABC-teen, ParentWeb or a 6 months Wait-List control. Parent- and adolescent ratings were collected at baseline, after 4 and after 12 months. All data collection has now been completed and the next step is to process and analyze the data.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of escalating doses of TCD601 when compared to rATG in de novo renal transplant patients.
The main aim of this exploratory research study is to investigate how exposure to a material with low pH affects the skin microbiome and skin parameters. This investigation involves an experimental setup in which application of test patches with lowered pH levels or control patches without lowered pH are used. The test patches are applied on healthy adult volunteers. About 20 subjects are planned for the study. The skin microbiome preservation and diversity will be addressed employing Molecular Sequencing and qPCR. In addition, skin pH, composition and hydration will be measured with various methods, e.g., AquaFlux, Moisture Meter, TEWL and Confocal Raman spectroscopy. The study will span three consecutive days in total. Each participant will be provided with four patches on each forearm: two patches will be applied to each dorsal forearm and two on each volar forearm. The first day will be for study inclusion and application of pathces. In day two the patches will be changed and on day three measurements for pH, TEWL, skin hydration, Raman and tape stripping will be conducted and sampling for Molecular Sequencing and qPCR measurements will be done. There is no formal hypothesis in the study but our idea is that utilizing patches with a lower pH could maintain the diversity and richness of the natural skin microbiome while retaining and even enhancing key skin barrier parameters. A descriptive analysis will be conducted for all measurements with approproate statistical tests on 5% level for varaibles. In addition to descriptive data analysis statistics, Clinical Microbiomics and Bio-Me Microbiome Profiling will employ various statistical methods, such as paired Mann-Whitney U tests. The Benjamini-Hochberg (BH) method to control the false discovery rate (FDR) will be employed.
The primary aim of the present study is to evaluate how automatically calculated (by an AI-based method) tumour burden, measured as tumour volume (TV) and as tumour uptake (TU: TV x SUVmean) in the prostate/prostate bed, pelvic lymph nodes, distant lymph nodes, bone and as the total tumour burden predicts overall survival (OS) in patients with prostate cancer (newly diagnosed and patients with biochemical recurrence).
This study is the academic study and continuation and further development of a prior project under the leadership of Professor LeBlanc. Patients undergoing allogenic stem cell transplantation are followed up in the outpatient clinic. Here, patients are offered participation the fatigue study measuring both fatigue and cognitive impairment systematically by international standard. Previous study by Boberg et al suggested distinct mRNA and proteomic profiles segregating fatigued from non-fatigued patients as well as patients with or without cognitive impairment. A larger well-defined patient cohort is necessary to confirm these results. Investigators aim to identify specific sets of proteins in the CSF that can serve as potential biomarkers of cognitive dysfunction and/or fatigue. This will be performed with two methods: - by using mass spectrometry-based proteomics approaches - Olink technology PET examinations will be performed on both fatigued and non-fatigued. We will utilize the second generation TSPO radioligand [ 11C]PBR28 as well as the SV2A radioligand [ 11C]UCB-J, both showing high signal-to-noise ratio and adequate test-retest properties.
The purpose of this first-in-human trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of APC148 after intravenous (IV) infusion of single ascending doses in healthy adults.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of golcadomide in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy vs placebo in combination with R-CHOP chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated high-risk large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL).
Early diagnosis of cancer is key for improving patient outcomes, but cancers are difficult to diagnose if patients present with unspecific symptoms. The principal objective of the MEDECA (Markers in Early Detection of Cancer) study is to identify a multi-analyte blood test that can detect and map occult cancer within a mixed population of patients presenting with serious but unspecific symptoms. The study will include 1500 patients referred to the Diagnostic Center at Danderyd Hospital (DC DS), a multidisciplinary diagnostic center referral pathway for patients with radiological findings suggestive of metastasis without known primary tumor or suspicion of serious but unspecific symptoms. Blood samples are collected prior to a standardized and extensive cancer diagnostic work-up, including an expanded panel of biochemical analyses and extensive imaging such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance investigations. In collaboration with world-leading international scientists, the blood samples will be analyzed for a panel of novel and established blood biomarkers predictive of an underlying cancer, including markers of neutrophil extracellular traps, circulating tumor DNA, platelet mRNA profiling, affinity-based proteomics and nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomics. The diagnostic accuracy of the blood biomarkers with respect to cancer detection during the diagnostic work-up will be analyzed through machine learning.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate and compare bridges to replace one or two missing teeth in the mouth. The bridges will be made of two variants of ceramic material. We will evaluate the bridges for up to five years regarding technical and biological complications.
