Filter by:The goal of this intervention study is to investigate the effectiveness of individualized plant-based diet plan on nutritional indices and clinical outcomes in colorectal cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. The main questions to answer are: 1. What are the current eating trends in colorectal cancer patients? 2. What are the common perceptions of adopting a plant-based diet in colorectal cancer? 3. Does iPLANT diet plan improve nutritional indices of colorectal cancer patients? 4. Does iPLANT diet plan improve patients' gastrointestinal side effects and quality of life without compromising their nutritional status? Participants will be randomly assigned into two arms (intervention and control) using opaque envelop system. Intervention group will receive individualized plant-based diet plan and diet counselling, whereas the control group will receive usual diet counselling. The researcher will compare the differences in nutritional outcomes and quality of life between intervention and control groups before and after intervention.
This study explores the use of an exclusive human milk diet versus standard feeding practices to compare the influence on feeding outcomes and the gut bacteria in infants with intestinal differences.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial will be performed to assess the efficacy of a probiotic containing Lactobacillus reuteri in improving post-surgical wound healing after impacted tooth extractions. The Primary aim is to evaluate the efficacy of L. reuteri in improving post-extractive healing. The Secondary aim is to evaluate the efficacy of L. reuteri in association with an antibiotic therapy (amoxicillin) in reducing the incidence and severity of antibiotic-associated gastro-intestinal symptoms.
PrevisEA is a noninvasive, disposable device that uses audio spectral analysis of sounds produced by the gastrointestinal tract to predict gastrointestinal impairment (GII). GII is most commonly associated with postoperative ileus (POI), but could be the result of other causes, such as early postoperative bowel obstruction. GII is defined as failure of successful early oral re-feeding in a subject undergoing major abdominal surgery. For subjects who are allowed to resume a diet during the first 24 hours after surgery, a failure to successfully orally re-feed a subject is defined as presentation with emesis, requiring a reversal of diet, or the placement of a nasogastric tube on first postoperative day or later. The device is considered non-significant risk (NSR). The device does not inform medical decisions in this study. Researchers will be blinded to results of the device during this study.
This international, multicentre, pragmatic, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised trial of TxA versus placebo will enrol 3,300 patients throughout Australia and internationally. This is an effectiveness trial - some elements of the trial are deliberately left to the perioperative clinicians' discretion in order to reflect usual practice and maximise generalisability.
iSpecimen aims to create a clinical partner network of hospitals, laboratories, academic institutions, and other healthcare organizations ("institutions") capable of providing researchers and educators ("researchers") with annotated biospecimens for use in biomarker discovery and validation; diagnostic test and instrumentation development and validation; therapeutics development; other medical research including the impact that various specimen collection and handling methods and conditions have on research results; and in education such as researcher or physician training (collectively "research").
