There are about 10560 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Taiwan. 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.
Compared with traditional calcium supplements, liposome calcium can increase the bioavailability of calcium and reduce the waste caused by gastric acid destruction of calcium. This allows calcium to be released slowly in the intestines, reducing the risk of indigestion or other side effects caused by excessive intake at one time. Liposomal calcium can be taken orally directly. It does not need to be dissolved in water before taking like other calcium supplements, making it more convenient to use. Based on the above advantages, liposomal calcium is a relatively safe and easy-to-absorb calcium supplement, suitable for long-term use, and can meet the body's demand for calcium. According to the recommendations of the World Health Organization, the daily calcium intake for adults should be 1000-1300 mg. In Taiwan, the seventh edition of the revised reference intake of dietary nutrients for Chinese people recommends that the daily intake for adults should be 1,000 mg. The calcium dose used in this study was 500 mg. The purpose was to explore whether the sustained-release characteristics of liposome coating technology can improve the absorption rate after consuming calcium powder and achieve better bioavailability. It is expected that microlipids made by lecithin can Lipid calcium powder increases its maintenance time in the blood, thereby increasing the supplementary effect of calcium, and is an alternative to calcium supplements.
This is a cohort study collecting patients with head and neck cancer who underwent free flap surgery at a single medical center between January 2019 and January 2022.
This study aims to assess the effects of 10-week water-based aerobic training (thrice a week) on anthropometrics, biochemicals, cardiovascular parameters, and explosive strength in young overweight and obese women. The findings indicate that water-based aerobic training could be a useful program to enhance body composition, biochemical, cardiovascular, and explosive strength parameters in young overweight and obese women compared to inactive persons
The present study aimed to determine the effects of acute concurrent exercise on inhibitory control via behavioral and event-related potential approaches and to examine its potential mediational role on lactate among younger adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: (1) Does acute concurrent exercise improve inhibitory control via behavioral and event-related potential approaches? (2) Does lactate play a potential mediational role in the effect of acute concurrent exercise on inhibitory control?
A total of 145 Liver transplantation (LT) recipients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were retrospectively enrolled at Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital between 2006 and 2019. Clinical records from 7 days before LT (pre-LT) to 1 year after LT (post-LT) were analysed. In a prospective study from March 2022 to June 2023, 20 lymphopenia and 25 non-lymphopenia HCC recipients were enrolled, and a phenotypic analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes was performed using multiparameter flow cytometry.
This study is an experimental study. The main caregivers of pressure injury patients in the plastics surgery ward and general medicine ward of the hospital in Taipei City who are over 20 years old, have good communication skills in Chinese and Taiwanese or who can read Chinese are the research objects. During the study process, pre-tests will be given to the accepted subjects, which are the correctness evaluation scale of caregiver's pressure injury wound dressing change and caregiver self-efficacy scale, and then the accepted subjects will be divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group will receive interventions of virtual reality and artificial intelligence wound detecting system, while the control group maintained the traditional pressure injury health education with oral introduction and health education leaflet. After the intervention measures are given, a post-test (same as the pre-test content) will be conducted within two days. Finally, analyze the effectiveness of the intervention of virtual reality pressure injury education video and artificial intelligence wound detecting system on caregivers of pressure injury improve wound care correctness and increase self-efficacy.
A project aims at addressing gait impairments and non-motor symptoms such as anxiety and stress in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients through a novel approach involving heart rate variability (HRV) feedback and Augmented Reality (AR) training. The project is based on the premise that improving HRV, which reflects the adaptability of the autonomic nervous system, can enhance both motor functions like gait and non-motor symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to observe the safety and effectiveness of the add-on of intraluminal brachytherapy with BRAXX esophageal brachytherapy applicator after definitive CCRT in patients with thoracic esophageal cancer.
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) has emerged as an effective therapeutic intervention for addressing post-stroke limb spasticity. This research aims to explore the therapeutic implications of focused ESWT for wrist and finger flexor muscles in patients suffering from post-stroke upper limb spasticity.
