Filter by:A clinical trial investigating the safety and effectiveness of Smith and Nephew's FDA-approved Porous Total Knee System, which is used to replace worn away and diseased knee joints. The aim of this study is to show that most patients who receive the Porous Total Knee System have reduced pain, greater mobility and a long-lasting implant post-surgery.
This study is a pilot, proof of concept study to determine the effects of administering an oral short chain fatty acid (SCFA) supplement along with methotrexate as first line treatment of new onset rheumatoid arthritis (NORA) patients. Up to 50 participants will be included to obtain a sample size of at least 16 participants taking the oral supplement. The study team hypothesizes that oral SCFA will change the participants' gut microbiome and regulatory immune responses. Clinical data to assess for adverse events, stool, urine samples and peripheral blood will be collected at baseline, 2 and 4 months with an optional 6-month time point. Fecal microbiome will be analyzed. Adaptive immune responses will be analyzed from participant blood samples.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Insignia™ Hip Stem for global market access and post-market clinical follow-up up to 10 years postoperative.
The first aim of this study is to test the efficacy of a real-time provider-based individuation intervention to improve the receipt of high-quality rheumatic disease care among Black/African American and lower socioeconomic status (SES) individuals. The second aim is to determine the effect of the individuation intervention on provider-patient communication, adherence, provider trust and care satisfaction.
This is a longitudinal, observational, prospective, multicentre study conducted in France, among a representative sample of rheumatology doctors. The aim of this study is to describe in real life the therapeutic strategy when faced with a patient with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or psoriatic arthritis (PsA) who requires initiation of treatment with biotherapy or targeted therapy. The evolution of the disease and the possible therapeutic adaptations will then be followed for 2 years.
The aim of this study is to determine and compare the effects of using textured insoles and plantar massage on balance in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis will be divided into two groups. In the first group the patients will be given plantar massage; in the second group, both plantar massage will be applied and the patients will use textured insoles in their indoor and outdoor activities. Plantar massage will be applied by the physiotherapist 3 days a week for 6 weeks; textured insoles will also be used for 6 weeks. All patients will be asked to complete the questionnaires, which assessed foot functionality, physical activity levels and quality of life. After each patients completed the questionnaire, the physiotherapist will perform plantar sensory and balance assessment. All assessments will be made before, after and 8 weeks after treatment.
This study will establish a normative database of Tilmanocept Uptake Values (TUVjoint) in healthy controls age-matched to the RA population.
This Post Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) study to evaluate the performance and safety of the cemented TrendHip® stem in a prospective follow-up study with patients who underwent a hip arthroplasty with the investigational product (representative of usual clinical practice), at two follow-up examinations
In this pilot study, we will test the hypothesis that a POPOP for currently ineligible UAMS orthopedic surgery patients wanting hip or knee replacement improves markers of preoperative health, ability to reach a BMI threshold <40 kg/m2 required for surgical eligibility, and postoperative outcomes versus SOC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the superiority in efficacy of abatacept compared with adalimumab, on background methotrexate, in adults with early, seropositive, and shared epitope-positive rheumatoid arthritis and an inadequate methotrexate response.
