Filter by:Combining the results of previous studies and based on the clinical practice in our center, we designed the Venetoclax in combination with 3days-Decitabine regimen for induction therapy in elderly or unfit AML patients with a primary diagnosis, and set Venetoclax in combination with Azacitidine (VIALE-A) as a control group to compare the efficacy and safety and to provide evidence for the optimal selection of the clinical treatment regimen. PRIMARY ENDPOINT: To assess whether Venetoclax in combination with 3 days-diascitabine versus standard dose Venetoclax in combination with azacitidine improves event-free survival (EFS) in elderly or adult patients with unfit AML during the maximum follow-up period. Event-free survival was defined as the absence of events such as treatment failure, intolerance withdrawal, all-cause death, or achievement of CR or CRi, or relapse after MLFS, whichever occurred first, between patients' randomization and the maximum follow-up period. Treatment failure was defined as failure to achieve CR or CRi, MLFS after 2 courses of induction therapy.
The primary objective of this study is to estimate the prevalence of the post-COVID-19 condition in confirmed mild, moderate, and severe COVID-19 adult patients in Hai Phong, Vietnam.
In this randomized controlled trial, we aim to evaluate the efficacy of incorporating mNGS in the management of pneumonia on efficiency and accuracy of causative pathogen identification, proportion of participants with effective antimicrobial therapy, length of hospitalization, and mortality.
To investigate and evaluate the capacity of prenatal screening, diagnosis and counseling of congenital heart disease in medical institutions in China, in order to understand the current status and existing problems of prenatal prevention and treatment capacity of congenital heart disease in China, and to obtain corresponding baseline data, so as to provide scientific basis for further improving prenatal screening and diagnosis policies in China.
At present, there is a lack of effective screening methods. It is urgent to explore new non-invasive detection methods for early diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer and non-invasive differentiation methods for benign and malignant ovarian tumors. Liquid biopsy technology has great potential for early screening of tumors. The fragmentation patterns of cfDNA fragments in plasma and the uneven coverage of the genome can indirectly reflect the state of gene expression regulation in vivo. Its characteristics mainly include copy number variation (CNV), Nucleosome footprint, fragment length and motif. The number of proteins in a proteome can sometimes exceed the number of genomes. It includes "structural Proteomics" and "functional Proteomics". At present, research has explored the use of urinary protein biomarkers for early diagnosis of gastric cancer. "Deep Visual Proteomics (DVP)" reveals the mechanism driving tumor evolution and new therapeutic targets for tumors. Using the currently mature low depth WGS sequencing technology, this study aims to explore its clinical application in the differentiation and early screening of epithelial ovarian cancer, as well as monitoring the course of epithelial ovarian cancer, including the detection of minimal residual lesions (MRD) and monitoring of recurrence (MOR). This study also explores the role of urine proteomics in the differentiation of benign and malignant ovarian tumors, early screening and invasiveness of epithelial ovarian cancer, and monitoring the course of epithelial ovarian cancer.
Clinical study participation percentages haven't always been fully representative of a given demographic. The goal is to find out which aspects of a clinical trial may make it more difficult for patients to take part or see it through. The data will be evaluated through different demographic lenses and identify trends that could help improve the experience of future substance abuse disorder patients during clinical trials.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the use of mobile application ("OcupApp") to generate a personal self-analysis about meaningful activities in which adults between the ages of 50 and 70 with anxiety and subclinical depression participant. A randomized study will be carried out comparing the effects of the use of the application "OcupApp" with a control intervention on the quality of life related to health, mental health, frequency of participation on meaningful activities, and perceived occupational balance.
the goal of this cluster randomized controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of smartphone application in reducing the symptoms of Anxiety and depression among adolescents. The main objectives of this trial are: 1. Primary Objective To develop a smart phone application for reduction in depressive and anxiety symptoms in Pakistani adolescents aged 12-18 years 2. Secondary Objectives - To determine the effectiveness of a smart phone application in reduction of anxiety symptoms in Pakistani adolescents aged 12-18 years via a randomized controlled trial - To determine the effectiveness of a smart phone application in reduction of depressive symptoms in Pakistani adolescents aged 12-18 years via a randomized controlled trial - To determine the effectiveness of a smart phone application in improvements of well-being of Pakistani adolescents aged 12-18 years via a randomized controlled trial the randomization will occur at the school level for the intervention group and control group. Students in the intervention group will receive the access to a smartphone application designed to improve the mental health of adolescents, they will be briefed on how to use the application and its advantages. while the students in the control group will receive self-reading pictorial educational leaflets related to mental health improvement. the researcher will conduct the assessment of depression, anxiety and mental wellbeing using PHQ-A, GAD-7 and WHO-5 at baseline, 1 month and at 3 months to compare if the smartphone application is effective in reducing the symptoms of depression and anxiety of adolescents and overall improvement in the mental wellbeing.
Introduction: Oxytocin (OT) is a nine-amino acid neuropeptide known to play a vital part in social behaviors and has also been found to be involved the social manifestations of mental illnesses, such as social manifestations and social cognition. it has been suggested that OT administration may serve as an add-on treatment for individuals with mental illnesses. One group of patients affected by social are patients with eating disorders (EDs). Studies of OT administration among individuals with EDs have shown an inconsistent pattern of findings, which might be associated with the differential baseline level of OT dysregulation. Thus OT dosing needs to be optimized, while considering patients baseline OT levels prior to administration. Patients with ED are also known to have lower OT levels at baseline. It is possible that OT's administration will affect interpersonal behavior through the increase of lowered OT levels, thus leading to overall improvement of ED symptoms. This study aims to examine the effects of OT administration among patients with EDs, while focusing on baseline OT levels and interpersonal abilities as potential moderators and/or mediators of its effects. The research addresses the following questions: (1) is OT administration associated with increased therapeutic gains among patients with ED? (2) what are the moderators and mediators of these effects, and specifically, do baseline levels of OT and baseline interpersonal abilities moderate these effects? (3) what is the mechanism underlying OT's therapeutic effects, and specifically do changes in interpersonal abilities and changes in OT levels serve a mediating role? Methods: This study aims to assess the differential effect of OT administration among patients with varying levels of baseline saliva OT and to explore the effects of optimizing frequency and dosage of administration of OT, based on baseline characteristics. Participants: Female and male Individuals (N=90) with verified diagnosis of EDs, age 16 and above, will participate in at least four weeks of treatment at the EDs unit. Subjects will be recruited at the Teradion Eating Disorder Clinic, an outpatient unit in North Israel. Procedure: Patients and caregivers will sign an informed consent form. Baseline saliva OT will be measured four times during consecutive days. At week 1 patients will be assessed for general distress, ED symptoms, cognitive rigidity, interpersonal abilities, as well as patients and therapists reported working alliance. At week 2 patients will be randomized at a ratio of 2:1 with 60 patients receiving OT and 30 receiving placebo. Patients will receive 24 IU of OT or placebo, once a week, prior to therapy sessions, for a period of 4 weeks. During these weeks (2-5), they will be assessed for levels of OT, general distress, interpersonal abilities, working alliance and cognitive rigidity. All measurements will be performed finally at week 6. Novelty: This study is the first to assess the effectiveness of OT as an add-on for patients with EDs, during clinical treatment, as well as to explore modulators such as baseline OT levels, and mediators such as social abilities and cognitive rigidity, on the overall improvement of ED patients in therapy.
The investigation team propose in this study to specifically evaluate the feasibility of using oxytocin in the form of an intranasal spray in a specific population of children with autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. The lack of studies centered on this population on the one hand, and on the other hand the severity of challenging behaviors presented by these children, make questionable the direct transfer of methods of care used in patients who do not present these challenging behavior. In this sense, the establishment of oxytocin treatment in these children requires a preliminary phase of feasibility assessment before being able to consider a comparative trial of the randomized clinical trial type.
