Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test two advices on alcohol drinking in more than 10.000 Spanish adult drinkers (men of 50 or more years and women of 55 or more years). The main question it aims to answer is to test the non-inferiority advice of a moderate alcohol drinking pattern on all-cause mortality and other chronic disease like cardiovascular disease, cancer or type 2 diabetes. Participants will receive during 4 years an advice to drink alcohol following a Mediterranean Alcohol Drinking Pattern (MADP): consuming alcohol in moderation, avoidance of binge drinking and preference for red wine. Researchers will compare those who will receive a MADP advice with those who will receive an advice on abstention to see if the advice on MADP is not inferior than the abstention advice to prevent all-cause mortality and other chronic diseases.
This is a prospective, multi-center clinical study of Multi-Cancer Early Detection (MCED) testing in cancer patients and healthy volunteers. The purpose of this study is to establish MCED platform through the analysis of whole genome sequencing of circulating DNA. The study will enroll 4,000 subjects as defined by eligibility criteria at up to 10 clinical institutions in South Korea.
No doubt that children facing surgical procedures are subjected to perioperative distressing, anxious and worrying periods. Several factors included; parental deprivation, anxiety, previously mismanaged experience and anticipating pain from the procedure itself weather diagnostic or curative. Anaesthetic goals should focus at alleviating these unfavorable events that may exacerbate the inevitable associated neurohormal stress response with its injurious effects on the course of the procedure. Moreover, it likely to extend beyond the surgical procedure predisposing these vulnerable group of patients to psychological trauma and chronic behavioral changes. Bone marrow aspiration (BMA) is a frequent procedure that necessitate a meticulous anaesthetic plane that entails rapid non-traumatic induction together with adequate pain free maintenance and instant smooth recovery after a short time practice. Total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) had emerged as alternative anaesthetic technique to inhalational anaesthesia for conscious sedation in BMA cited by many authors. Propofol a popular anaesthetic/ sedative with a rapid onset, short duration and smooth recovery of consciousness and psychomotor functions with no cumulation. However it is poorly analgesic, depresses respiration and there is a possibility of loss of muscle tone leading to airway obstruction . Dexmedetomidine is a greatly active α2 adrenergic agonist with a valuable anaesthetic- analgesic saving effects. It augments sedation, hypnosis and preservation of muscle tone with negligible respiratory depression and hemodynamic derangements. The purpose of the current study is to compare between effects of TIVA using propofol or dexmedetomedine versus sevoflurane for maintenance of anaesthesia in children undergoing bone marrow aspiration.
Balancing Method for Pain Related to Advanced Cancer seeks to confirm the benefit of acupuncture for patients with pain related to advanced cancer.
Mammography screening has limited performance in young women or women with dense breasts although it is the only proven method for breast cancer screening that reduces the mortality. The investigators propose a multicenter trial of breast cancer screening to assess the effectiveness of supplemental ultrasonography for Korean women aged 40-59 years.
