NCT ID: NCT06293911 Not yet recruiting - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Clinical Comparison of a Postbiotic-gel With Placebo Gel for Gingival Inflammation in Patients With Down Syndrome

Start date: March 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of home treatment with a postbiotic-based gel for the management of periodontal inflammation in patients with Down syndrome. Patients will be enrolled at the S.C. Odontostomatologia dell'Azienda Ospedaliera "Ordine Mauriziano di Torino", Turin, Italy. After the collection of the periodontal clinical indexes (BoP%, PCR%, dental mobility, mMGI, compliance and satisfaction questionnaire), patients will undergo a professional mechanical debridement with ultrasonic instruments and glycine powders. Then, they will be randomly divided into two groups according to the home treatment: - in the Trial group Biorepair Plus Parodontgel Intensive (containing microRepair®, hyaluronic acid, Lactobacillus Ferment and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder) will be used once a day for all the duration of the study - in the Control group, a placebo gel without (active ingredients) will be used once a day for all the duration of the study. Indexes will be re-evaluated after 1 (T1), 3 (T2) and 6 months. The professional mechanical debridement will be performed again at T3 timepoint.

NCT ID: NCT06284707 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Physical Conditioning, Human

Effect of Rhythmic Gymnastics Training in Children With Down Syndrome

Start date: March 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Some of the clinical characteristics of people with Down syndrome (DS) are orthopedic, cardiovascular, neuromuscular, visual, cognitive and perceptual disorders, which directly affect the quality of their movements. Children with DS often have a sedentary lifestyle or low levels of physical activity which exacerbates problems related to obesity and overall physical health. Therefore, the practice of physical exercise in this type of population is essential to improve their health-related physical fitness. The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of an adapted rhythmic gymnastics training program on body composition, tendon architecture and stiffness, and physical capacity in children with DS.

NCT ID: NCT06279208 Recruiting - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Phosphoproteomic Profile of Children With Down Syndrome

PEPS
Start date: March 18, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

One of the major causes of cognitive disorders limiting the learning abilities of children with Down's syndrome is excess activity of the DYRK1A protein kinase, whose gene is located on chromosome 21. Consequently, variations in the level of phosphorylation, and hence activity, of DYRK1A target proteins involved in synaptic transmission, could identify mechanisms underlying these cognitive disorders. Several studies have shown that plasma proteins can reflect a pathophysiological brain state. The investigators plan to carry out a phosphoproteomic study to determine the phosphorylation profile of plasma proteins in children with Down's syndrome, and identify potential DYRK1A-dependent pathophysiological mechanisms and biomarkers involved in the natural course of cognition in children with Down's syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT06263777 Completed - Clinical trials for Autism Spectrum Disorder

Early Detection of Children With Developmental Disabilities in Assiut Governorate

Start date: January 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of a designed training program for nurses toward early detection of developmental disabilities among children (0-3 years).

NCT ID: NCT06244108 Completed - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Occupational Therapy Home Programs in Children With Down Syndrome

Start date: January 10, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Children with Down Syndrome frequently encounter difficulties with sensory functions and feeding, such as oral sensory processing issues and developmental disorders. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of an Occupational Therapy Home Program on the sensory functions and feeding issues of children with Down Syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT06234644 Recruiting - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Effects of Maze Activities in Down's Syndrome

Start date: December 5, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Down's Syndrome is due to the chromosomal disorder in 47 chromosomes instead of 46, socalled as Trisomy 21. The syndrome has several clinical symptoms including Cardiovascular,neurological, orthopedic, hormonal, cognitive and visual perceptual impairments. These childrenhave Developmental Delay. Children have hypermobility of joints, hypotonicity or ligamentous laxity, light to moderate obesity, due to underdeveloped respiratory and cardiovascular systemandshortstaturewhichleadtodecreaseinfunctionalambulation.Due to the low level of physical fitness, theseindividuals shows limitation in performing the functional tasks of daily living. The fundamental motor skill is Walking that facilitates the child to interact with the environment and helps indeveloping, social, motor and cognitive skills. Due to their delayed milestones and due to the irintellectual disability, environmental exposure is limited which hampers this fundamental skill.Hence it is necessary to asses the functional ambulation in these children. This is a Randomized Controlled Trial that will be conducted in Rising Sun Institute Of Special Children. 26 participants will be allocated randomly into 2 groups Group A will receive the conventional interventions of Down's Syndrome but the group B will receive the mobility training with Standardized Walking Obstacle Course (SWOC). Tool used for this research will be a Standardized Walking Obstacle Course (SWOC) (that is used to measure stability and speed during gait in terms of time, number of steps, number of stumbles and number of steps off the path for each participant) and Timed up and go test (Valid for the functional mobility assessment of the children with DS). The data will be analyzed by SPSS version 21

NCT ID: NCT06219863 Not yet recruiting - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Harness-based Mobility Intervention for Infants With Down Syndrome

Start date: February 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The emergence of crawling and walking is significantly delayed in infants with Down syndrome (DS), but the development of independent mobility provides infants with new opportunities for exploring the environment and interacting with objects and people that are important foundations for early learning. Increasing infant mobility early in development with body weight supported harness systems may support infant exploration, communication, and social interaction. This project will set the stage for the first clinical trial of a mobility-related intervention specifically tailored for infants with DS by testing the feasibility of harness systems with infants and families and identifying measures that will serve as primary outcome variables. Upon completion of this pilot project, necessary preliminary data and experience required for an in-home, high-impact clinical trial for infants with DS will have been obtained.

NCT ID: NCT06213090 Recruiting - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

NCT ID: NCT06200519 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Gestational Diabetes

Assessment of Diastolic Function During the Transitional Period and Infancy Using Serial Echocardiography

DiFuSE
Start date: January 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this single-centre longitudinal observational study is to create reference values for diastolic function parameters in neonates born at 35 weeks' gestation or above, and to assess the influence of pre-defined antenatal, intrapartum, maternal, and neonatal factors on cardiac function. The main question it aims to answer are: - What are the normal reference ranges for parameters of diastolic cardiac function in neonates? - How are these influenced by maternal, intrapartum and neonatal factors? - Do the diastolic changes noted during the first two days of life persist into infancy? Participants will have four echocardiographic assessments in total: - Two during the first 48 hours of life (prior to discharge home) - Two during infancy (as an outpatient)
