Filter by:The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to assess if adjunctive bosentan therapy, in comparison to placebo, can reduce the rate of epicardial vasospasm at follow-up spasm provocation CFT (fuCFT) in patients with previously proven epicardial vasospasm on acetylcholine reactivity testing (at index CFT) and ongoing angina(-like) complaints. Participants will - Use either endothelin receptor antagonist or placebo for 10 weeks - Undergo follow-up acetylcholine spasm provocation test after 10 weeks - Answer online questionnaires on angina and quality of life
Infantile spasms are a type of seizure linked to developmental issues. Unfortunately, they are often misdiagnosed, causing delays in treatment. The purpose of this study is to develop a computer program that can reliably differentiate infantile spasms from similar, yet benign movements in videos. This computer program will learn from videos taken by parents of study participants. Quickly recognizing and treating infantile spasms is crucial for ensuring the best developmental outcomes.
A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial using a Chinese Medicine formula in treating Sleep-related Leg Cramps. Subjects will be randomized into a treatment group or placebo group for 4 weeks, and then post-treatment visit at week 6 and week 8.
Leg cramps are painful sensations of tightening in the muscles of the legs, that are often associated with secondary insomnia. They are common especially at an older age. There is no evidence that any method of prevention of nocturnal leg cramps would be both safe and effective. There are no previous trials concerning cramp prevention by using compression stockings. The objective of this study is to assess in a prospective randomised controlled trial whether leg cramps can be prevented by daily use of knee-length compression stockings or magnesium supplements.
Oral magnesium supplementation has been widely used in the treatment of muscle cramps. Muscle cramps are common in dialysis patients but are not satisfactorily prevented by oral magnesium. Transdermal administration of magnesium has been promoted as a potential treatment for muscle cramps but this has not been investigated rigorously. We aim to evaluate the effectiveness of transdermal magnesium supplementation in reducing cramp frequency and severity. We will recruit current haemodialysis patients who suffer from muscle cramps into a randomised, placebo-controlled, cross-over design trial. Each intervention period will last 8 weeks with a 4-week washout period in between. We will measure muscle cramp frequency, duration and severity as the primary outcomes.
- Cyclobenzaprine, is a muscle relaxer medication used to relieve skeletal muscle spasms. It is one of the best-studied drug for this application.
- Muscle cramps markedly affect the quality of life in cirrhotic patients with no highly effective drug. - Quinine was suggested for treatment of patients with muscle cramps in patients with liver cirrhosis. However, thrombocytopenia, cardiac arrhythmias and cinchonism are serious side effects.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether zinc supplements are effective in enhancing the treatment of oculofacial spasm disorders with botulinum toxin.
