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.
Conduct randomized double-blind controlled trial (RCT), to examine the effects of vitamin D on cognitive performance in euthymic BD.
This is a phase IV, open label, historical controlled comparative study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ricovir® in maintaining durability of viral response in CHB patients who have been treated with Viread® and have undetectable HBV DNA in serum by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay.
Background. Recently, cognitive function training program has been shown to improve cognitive function in elders. However, the effects of cognitive function training program on elderly living in the community have not been thoroughly evaluated. Objective. The purpose of this study is to construct and evaluate the effects of cognitive function training program on cognitive function for community elderly. Design. This is a randomized controlled study. Study subjects are elderly living in community. Subjects will be randomized into experimental group or active control group. The evaluation of the program will be evaluated at baseline, immediate after, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after the last session. The primary outcome indicators of the training is cognitive function, assessed by MMSE and MoCA. Expected contribution. With rigorous design and long term follow-up, the effectiveness of cognitive function training program in Chinese population in Taiwan can be evaluated. Results of the current study will determine the value of the cognitive function training program and provide valuable information for future utilization of this protocol.
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of imsidolimab compared with placebo in adult subjects with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP).
This study will compare the new medicine IcoSema, which is a combination of insulin icodec and semaglutide, taken once a week, to insulin icodec taken once a week in people with type 2 diabetes. The study will look at how well IcoSema controls blood sugar level in people with type 2 diabetes compared to insulin icodec. Participants will either get IcoSema or insulin icodec. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. IcoSema and insulin icodec are both new medicines that doctors cannot prescribe. Participants will get IcoSema or insulin icodec, which participants must inject once a week with a pen, which has a small needle, in a skin fold in the thigh, upper arm, or stomach. The study will last for about 1 year and 1 month. Participants will have 21 clinic visits, 31 phone/video calls with the study doctor, and 4 contacts with the site that can either be clinic visits or phone/video calls At 11 clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. At 7 clinic visits participants cannot eat or drink (except for water) for 8 hours before the visit. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to get pregnant during the study period. Not applicable for China: Participants will be asked to wear a sensor that measures their blood sugar level all the time during a 5 week period at the end of the study.
The purpose of this single-blinded, randomized controlled study aims to investigate the effects of sling exercise training (SET) for core muscle on gait performance in people with chronic stroke.
This project is about the integrated rehabilitation program for the patients receiving total knee arthroplasty. The investigators are monitoring the WOMAC(Western Ontario and Mcmaster University Arthritis Index)/ Pain scores/Anxiety scores/Knee society scores in the treatment course between the intervention group and the control group.
This research is to explore the effects of supplementing Lactobacillus paracasei PS23 to reduce fatigue and improve physical fitness after exhaustive exercise.
Ping Shuai Gong (PSG) and Arm Swing Exercise (ASE) are two similar exercise with different arm-swinging strategies. This study is plan to explore the relationship between characteristics of arm-swinging movement and skin blood flow during exercise.
In recent years, due to the improvement in the survival rate of the intensive care unit, the problem of severe systemic fatigue (Intensive care unit acquired weakness; ICUAW) has continued to receive attention. Muscle mass decreases by 3-11% within a week, resulting in decreased muscle strength and muscle atrophy. Current studies suggest that ICUAW can lead to poorer function, prolonged ICU stay, and decreased quality of life. This study aimed to understand the muscle strength of critically ill patients and to explore the effect of exercise intervention on improving muscle strength. The experimental group received a four-week exercise bike intervention plus conventional rehabilitation exercises, while the control group received conventional rehabilitation exercises.
