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.
This is a double-blind, multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in infants with colic with the primary objective to evaluate crying time.
Healthier Wealthier Families is a way of working, where child health nurses ask parents about their financial situation and connect them to a free financial help service, if needed. To test whether it helps families, the investigators will randomly select half of the families who want to take part to go to the service straight away and half around 3 months later. Both groups of parents will receive a book about parenting and finances straight away. The investigators will compare how the groups of parents answer on survey questions about meeting the costs of their children's needs, their financial knowledge, financial control, readiness to change, success on personal finance goals, mental health and financial stigma. The investigators predict that the parents who are offered the financial help service straight away will answer more positively on the survey questions. The investigators will ask all parents the survey questions again around 12 months later to see how they are doing.
Physical pain leads to a narrow, egocentric focus on the self, in the here and now, particularly when experienced at high intensity levels. When long-term pains are experienced, this narrow focus could be debilitating, since attention to the pain itself may increase its perceived intensity and it could increase negative emotional processes that further contribute to pain-related suffering. One way of overcoming this could be by adopting a more distant view of oneself and the pain, thereby making the pain more abstract. An established way of creating distance is by reflecting on the self, using one's own name and second or third-person singular pronouns, so called third-person self-talk. Earlier research has reported that a psychologically distant perspective could reduce emotional distress when reflecting on negative experiences, reduce feelings of anger after provocation and to lower blood pressure. Self-distancing should thus help people mentally reconstrue their pain experience and possibly make the pain signals less cognitively salient. In this experimental study, healthy participants will be induced with pain while performing different tasks.
The aim of this project is to evaluate avenanthramides and avenacosides and their metabolites as specific biomarkers of oat product intake in humans. Biomarkers will be evaluated after i) a single dose through a single meal based on a solid and a liquid oat-based product (pharmacokinetic study) ii) week-long consumption at three different intake levels (dose-response). The study will be carried out as a two-way cross-over design with two different oat products, liquid or solid, where each product is provided 3 times per day during 5 days per product. A wash-out period of 8 days where participants consume their habitual diet is implemented. The first day of study meal intervention includes postprandial measurements during 8 hours.
This study aims to determine the effects of a motor-cognitive exercise intervention, delivered in the home environment using eHealth methods, among people with Parkinson's disease. The intervention will support and motivate motor training, combined with cognitive training, aimed at attentional and executive functions, among people at mild-moderate disease stages. The main hypothesis is that unsupervised motor-cognitive training in the home environment using eHealth will lead to improvements in gait performance, increased physical activity levels and improved perceived health.
This study comprises the pilot phase of a randomized controlled trial (NCT05085756) that will investigate the feasibility of a transdiagnostic CBT-based treatment for symptoms of depression and anxiety offered to Swedish university students. It will offer treatment to participants who have previously responded to a universal online mental health screen conducted in university setting (WHO-WMH-ICS survey). The pilot study initially has a prospective single-group design where 30 college students with elevated depressive and/or anxiety symptoms are enrolled in 8 weeks of therapist-guided CBT treatment via the Internet. All participants included will receive treatment. Mid-treatment, participants that are judged to be at risk of treatment failure will be randomized (1:1 ratio) to either continued treatment with no change, or to receive added therapist-support intended to enhance outcome. Pilot study outcomes include various aspects of feasibility: participant uptake, self-reported credibility and expectancy, adherence to treatment protocol and assessments, treatment satisfaction, potential adverse events, causes for premature termination of treatment, and procedures for providing additional therapist support to a subsample of participants after mid-treatment. Within-group effects for primary depression and anxiety measures will be quantified. A range of secondary measures are piloted for the subsequent randomized controlled trial. The assessment points for this study: Baseline; 8 points during treatment; post-treatment; 6-month follow-up; 12-month follow-up; 24 month follow up. Note. This study is retrospectively registered; this registration was completed prior to any outcome data-analyses.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of rimegepant in a population of adults that are unsuitable for triptan medications due to a previous intolerance, lack of efficacy, or contraindication (including a history of clinically-relevant cardiovascular disease).
This study evaluates the effect of using the Autism Program Environment Rating Scale (APERS) as the foundation for providing feedback, in-service training and coaching to teachers, to improve program quality for autistic (ASD) students and students with related social-communication challenges (SCC) in Swedish primary school classrooms. In the current study half of the participating classrooms will receive the APERS-based model for program quality improvement, while the other half will receive services as usual. It is hypothesized that the APERS-based model will improve primary school program quality for children with ASD and SCC, as well as improve functioning for students with ASD/SCC and self-perceived self-efficacy among participating teachers, compared to the study's comparison group.
The purpose of this study is to compare efficacy of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab (MK-4280A) with physician's choice chemotherapy of bendamustine or gemcitabine in participants with PD-(L)1-refractory, relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin Lymphoma. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab. The primary study hypotheses are that coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab is superior to physician's choice chemotherapy with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
The study's aim is to assess the sitting and dynamic postural control of stability of wheelchair users who have compromised postural control and risk of ulcers while using individually adjusted multi-cell air cushions with and without individual cell-locking function and variable depths.
