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.
To exam the effects of Phyllanthus niruri extracts(corilagin, phyllanthin and brevifolin) on human neutrophils
In Taiwan, the prevalence of sleep problems, myopia, and dental caries in school-age children is high. Little is known regarding the implementation of oral and vision health outcomes around bedtime. A bedtime routine intervention was conducted to improve children's oral, vision and sleep health.
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of JETKNEE Synovial Fluid Supplement for alleviating pain of knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Objective: To investigate the effect of Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) as an adjuvant therapy in the treatment of traumatic anosmia. Methods: Patients with a clear history of loss of smell after head injury, and whose phenyl ethyl alcohol (PEA) odor detection threshold remained -1 after treatment with steroid, zinc, and olfactory training (OT) for one month, were included in this study between September of 2018 and November of 2020. They were randomly divided into 2 groups, with patients in the CHM group taking CHM (tailored Guizhi decoction) and performing OT, and those in the OT group receiving OT only for 6 months. After 3 months' and 6 months' treatment, the olfactory function was evaluated by both the PEA threshold test and the traditional Chinese version of the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT-TC). Magnetic resonance imaging was performed to measure the volume of olfactory bulbs after 6 months' treatment.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of booster dose of vaccine in participants who are generally healthy or with stable pre-existing health conditions. Study details include: - The study duration per participant will be approximately 209 days (28 days screening, 1 day vaccination, and 180 days follow-up). - The treatment will include 1 booster dose only. - The visit frequency will be 6 on-site visits and 1 phone visit.
The investigators hypothesize that early mobility condition and muscle power may be the predictive factors for Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19) patients' activity prognosis and hospitalization days. To prove our hypothesis, the investigators proposed a retrospective cohort study to see if ICU mobility scale(ICUMS) and Medical Research Council Sum Score(MRCSS) can predicted the patients' Barthel index after discharge and hospitalization days.
Scholars from around the world have been strongly advocating restraint-free care in long-term care institutions. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a multifactorial intervention to reduce physical restraints for care providers in nursing homes.
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an important stabilizer of knee during daily activity and exercise. The ruptured ACL need to be reconstructed by a new tendon graft which passed the bone tunnel and joint during operation. How to enhance the tendon graft to bone tunnel healing is critical important to prevent recurrent ligament laxity, avoid secondary osteoarthritis, and achieve early return to sports and work. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)，harvest from peripheral blood, is rich in multiple growth factors(i.e. VEGF, PDGD, TGFB, IGF, EGF) which help the injured tissue regeneration. Bone marrow stem cell has been demonstrated to enhance the injured tissue repair both in vitro and in vivo study. However, there is no prospective study in comparing the PRP and BMC to enhance interfacial healing between graft and bone tunnel in ACL reconstruction. Investigators hypothesize that the combination of PRP and BMC has synergetic effect in interfacial healing in ACL reconstruction. Aim of this study： To investigate the result of clinical functional scoring, MRI, and biomechanical study between PRP augmentation, PRP+BMC augmentation and traditional ACL reconstruction.
Abstract The equipment "infrared therapeutic device" is widely used in various medical institutions in Taiwan. The infrared therapeutic device improves the blood circulation, relieves muscle stiffness and pain by the heat energy radiated by the infrared light, and has a significant relief effect on patients with joint pain, muscle soreness, and back discomfort. However, the principle of the infrared therapeutic device is thermal energy, and there is no complete literature on the parameters such as treatment intensity and time and the full distance. In addition, the literature on the damage that can be caused is not based on clinical evidence, and there is no standardization study on the use of equipment, so it is hoped that this test will explore the safety distance of infrared therapeutic devices. The project is expected to recruit 50 people from 20 years old to 75 years old in the Chinese Medicine Clinic of Tainan Hospital of the Ministry of Health and Welfare, which is included in the diagnosis of osteoarthritis, degenerative arthritis, osteoporosis and other related Chinese medicine clinics. In patients with diseases, the main complaint must include patients with lower back pain and back pain. Subjects should exclude diseases that may be affected by chemoradiotherapy, cardiovascular disease, anemia, hypertension, etc., and exclude dermatitis, skin irritation, and erythema. Skin diseases such as lupus. The test site is the TCM clinic of Tainan Hospital of the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The air conditioner is fixed at a constant temperature of 28 degrees. The output power is calculated by the wattage meter, and the distance and temperature of the infrared lamp are measured. Finally, the appropriate temperature and distance of the infrared lamp to the human skin are estimated through calculation. Keywords: Infrared, Far- infrared, Burn
The primary purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effects of MelaGene on anti-aging and anti-oxidant.
