There are about 8563 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.
Muscle contractions induced by calf low-intensity neuromuscular electrical stimulation (C-LI-NMES) can increase venous return and may reduce venous thromboembolism. This study aimed to compare the effect of different C-LI-NMES frequencies and plateau times on hemodynamics, discomfort and energy efficiency, when applied via sock-integrated transverse textile electrodes.
The aim of this study is to determine, quantify and understand the potential prebiotic effects of RG-I variants via microbiota modulation. The anti-inflammatory potential effects of these variants will also be investigated.
Mental fatigue occurs in many diseases and the reasons are mostly unknown. The investigators hypothesize that remaining mental fatigue after restored euthyroidism in Graves' disease is an autoimmune complication. This is a confirmatory study of the biomarkers from ImmunoGraves WP1 in which immunological markers with possible association with mental fatigue in Graves' disease are explored. In ImmunoGraves WP2, 310 patients with Graves' disease are assessed for symptoms of mental fatigue, quality of life, anxiety and depression, self-evaluated stress, coping strategies, personality traits, eye symptoms and background variables. Participants are examined in hyperthyroidism at inclusion, within three weeks from diagnosis, and in euthyroidism after 15 months. Serum and cerebrospinal fluid (in a subsample of participants) is collected at both visits and will be evaluated for the immunological markers identified in WP1 as well as for thyroid hormones, thyroid autoantibodies and biomarkers indicating organic and structural nerve damage. Significant predictors for mental fatigue will be identified by logistic regression. To assess functional changes in the brain, magnetoencephalography will be performed in a subset of patients and in healthy controls at inclusion and after 15 to 18 months. Combined with magneto resonance imaging (MRI), magnetoencephalography gives information on neuronal activation during attention testing.
In this study an artificial intelligence (AI) tool for skin cancer diagnosis is implemented in a teleldermatoscopy platform. The aim is to study the effects on clinician diagnostic accuracy, management decisions, and confidence. Furthermore, this prospective randomized study investigates the role of human factors in determining clinician reliance on AI tools and the consequent accuracy in a real-world setting.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ALXN1850 versus placebo on radiographic outcomes in pediatric participants with HPP who have not previously been treated with asfotase alfa.
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of GSK4527226 in participants with early Alzheimer's Disease (AD) (including mild cognitive impairment [MCI] and mild dementia due to AD) of 2 dose levels of GSK4527226 compared to placebo.
The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to evaluate the effect of a postoperative rehabilitation program after surgical correction of abdominal rectus diastasis. The main questions to answer are: 1. Does structured postoperative abdominal exercise improve abdominal wall function in three months and twelve months after surgical correction of abdominal rectus diastasis 2. Does connective tissue components differ in patients with abdominal rectus diastasis when compared to healthy individuals?
Purpose & Research Questions The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether artificial intelligence (AI) improves the detection of polyps and whether the system can classify the type and severity of detected changes. The investigators will also assess if there are any differences between the various AI systems and whether the polyps that may be missed are benign or malignant.
This is an observational study in which only data are collected from people who have already been prescribed aflibercept 8 mg by their own doctors. In this study, data from adults with visual impairment due to neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) or diabetic macula edema (DME) will be collected and studied. Visual impairment is any degree of vision loss that affects a person's ability to perform daily activities. nAMD is an eye disorder that causes vision loss due to the growth of abnormal blood vessels that leak blood or retinal fluid into the macula (the central part of the retina). nAMD is a leading cause of vision loss for people aged 50 and older. DME is a diabetes-related eye disorder. In DME, the macula swells up due to fluid leakage from damaged blood vessels, resulting in vision problems. Aflibercept 8 mg is a drug that is injected into the eye. It works by blocking a protein called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) which causes abnormal growth and leakage of blood vessels at the back of the eye. Aflibercept 8 mg has been submitted for approval for the treatment of visual impairment due to nAMD and DME based on the results from 2 studies called PHOTON and PULSAR. This study will begin once approval is obtained. Currently, no real-world data are available for aflibercept 8 mg. The main purpose of this study is to collect more information about how well aflibercept 8 mg injection works in people with nAMD and DME. This study will include participants who have not received any prior treatment for nAMD or DME and participants who have. The main information that researchers will collect: the change in vision test scores called the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) after 12 months of treatment. Data will be collected from February 2024 to September 2027 and will cover a period of up to 24 months per participant. The data will be collected using medical records and by interviewing the patients during regular visits that take place in routine practice. Researchers will observe participants from the first injection of aflibercept 8 mg until the end of the observation. In this study, only available data from regular visits will be collected. No visits or tests are required as part of this study.
The purpose of this study is to investigate if different emotional states could influence mechanical pain thresholds.
