There are about 515 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Tunisia. 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 a longitudinal and prospective study of the natural history of infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (INAD).
Our study is a prospective double-blind randomized study performed in the Emergency Department (ED). The objective of our study was to demonstrate the additive effect of high and repeated doses of inhaled budesonide combined with the standard treatment of acute asthma in adult managed in the ED
The Tunisian Society of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery (STCCCV) proposes to coordinate a national, observational, cross-sectional and multicenter survey carried out during one month. The main objective of the survey is to describe the blood pressure and cardiovascular risk profile of the hypertensive patient in Tunisia. This survey will allow us to have a generalized and updated view of the tunisian hypertensive patient in order to optimize treatment and to know the degree of adherence of practitioners to international recommendations in the care of the hypertension in Tunisia.
our study aimed to evaluate the effect of nebulized lidocaine to decrease the incidence of cough and sore throat after extubation after surgeries requiring endotracheal intubation.
the aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of different ultrasonographic parameters and clinical tests to predict difficult airway assessment. Ultrasonographic parameters were: hyo-mental distence, tongue width, skin to epiglottis distence and skin to hyoid bone distence. these parameters were recorded and their predictive acurracy was studied.
The aim of this multicenter, investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, open-label, non-inferiority study is to evaluate a prednisone prescribing strategy, guided by eosinophil blood count compared to the standard (systematic) administration of corticosteroids, in patients with COPD exacerbation requiring ventilatory support. Patients fulfilling inclusion criteria and consenting to participate in the study, will be randomized through a random table generated electronically, to eosinophil-guided group or to control group. In the eosinophil-guided group, prednisone (1mg/kg/day for up to 5 days or during the hospital stay if less than 5 days) is administered only if the eosinophil count is >2%. If blood eosinophil count is ≤2%, no corticosteroids are given. In the control group: a treatment based on prednisone at a daily dose of 1 mg/kg will be routinely administered for a maximum of 5 days, or during the hospital stay, if it is less than 5 days. Corticosteroid treatment is taken in the morning in patients with NIV, and through the gastric tube in intubated patients. The hypothesis tested is a non-inferiority of the "eosinophil-guided strategy" compared to the standard strategy, with less exposure to corticosteroids. The primary endpoint is the proportion of unventilated patients at day 6 which is set to 50% in the control group. A pre-specified difference <10% would be a non-inferiority margin. Secondary endpoints are: Number of ICU days alive without ventilatory support within 28 days after recruitment, length of stay in intensive care Unit, the intubation rate in patients initially under NIV, Mortality in the ICU, Hospital mortality. Safety: New onset of diabetes or worsening of diabetes requiring the start or the increase in insulin therapy, Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (2 g drop of Hb requiring blood transfusion or fibroscopy), Uncontrolled hypertensive crisis requiring the introduction of new antihypertensives, ICU-acquired neuromyopathy, Nosocomial infection, Relapse rate / recurrence defined respectively by the rate of a new hospital consultation and/or admission in the week or the month following index hospitalization. Sample size calculation: In a non-inferiority study, with an incidence of the event (no ventilation at D6) of 50% in the control group ( with 10% of acceptable difference for non-inferiority), a power of 80% and alpha error <0.05, it would take 86 patients per arm by anticipating 2% of lost sight.
The TRACK trial is an investigator-initiated, multicentre, prospective, randomised, quadruple-blind (participant, healthcare provider, data collector, outcomes assessor), placebo-controlled trial. TRACK is a global trial and will be conducted in renal units that provide comprehensive CKD care. Approximately 2000 participants will be recruited. The TRACK trial will assess a strategy of administering low dose rivaroxaban to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) in people with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) stages 4 or 5 or dialysis-dependent kidney failure, and elevated cardiovascular (CV) risk (marked by a history of CAD or PAD, or non-haemorrhagic non-lacunar stroke OR diabetes mellitus OR age ≥65 years).
The objective of this study was to collect data both retrospectively and prospectively in order to evaluate the long-term outcomes, durability of effect, and real-world treatment patterns following treatment with Cladribine Tablets or placebo in participants with multiple sclerosis (MS) who were previously participated in the parent studies (ORACLE MS and CLARITY/CLARITY-EXT).
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and descriptive efficacy of BIIB017 in pediatric participants with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BIIB017 in pediatric participants with RRMS in Part 1. In Part 2, the study will evaluate the long-term safety of BIIB017 and further describe safety and the long-term multiple sclerosis (MS) outcomes after BIIB017 treatment in participants who completed the study treatment at Week 96 in Part 1 of the study.
