Filter by:This study aims to explore the dose effects of three weekly volumes of high-intensity functional training (HIFT) on apolipoprotein B (ApoB), triglyceride (TG) and cholesterol (CHOL) content of low-density lipoproteins (LDL), very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), and high-density lipoproteins (HDL) particles, fasting insulin and glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and endothelial function after a 12-week training program. Secondarily, this study aims to also explore the subjective dose-responses of "exercise enjoyment" and "intention to continue" after this 12-week training program.
Patients with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome have respiratory and proprioceptive disorders. The aim of this study is to explore whether there is an alteration in lung volume perception in patients with hEDS compared to healthy subjects, and whether a cognitive task can influence ventilation control differently in subjects with hEDS than in healthy subjects.
Evidence suggests coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with an increased incidence of thromboembolic manifestations. Various guidelines on managing antithrombotics in COVID-19 either provided conflicting guidance or unclear recommendations for post-discharge thromboprophylaxis. The investigators aim to collect the current practices in India among physicians on antithrombotic therapy for hospitalised patients with COVID-19 and after discharge from the hospital.
Summary Currently, the COVID-19 pandemic has overtaken health systems worldwide, exceeding the capacity of intensive care units. In addition to this, countries such as the United States have reported a decrease in the supplies of drugs such as Propofol and Midazolam (traditionally used as sedatives in patients with invasive mechanical ventilation), so in the absence until now of a specific treatment against SARS-COV-2 virus, improving the support strategies in patients in the severe spectrum of the disease Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a priority. Given the global state of emergency due to COVID-19, the use of sevoflurane has the potential to mitigate the shortages of sedative drugs, promote the recovery of patients with ARDS, and potentially reduce mortality. A study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of sevoflurane as inhalation sedation in patients with ARDS secondary to SARS-COV2 compared to the standard. The primary objective of the study is to assess the difference in oxygenation, for which the calculation of the partial pressure of arterial oxygen to fractional inspired oxygen concentration ratio (PaO2 / FiO2) will be used at 24 and 48 hours. Also, the effect of the possible attenuation or inhibition of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction will be evaluated by hemodynamic monitoring with a pulmonary artery catheter and transthoracic echocardiography and its possible effect on the right ventricle. Outcome: we expect an improvement in oxygenation and consequently a reduction in the days of invasive mechanical ventilation, stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital. In addition to evaluating its possible anti-inflammatory effect and probably establishing a safe and effective alternative and possibly with greater benefits compared to standard intravenous sedation.
Probiotics efficacy is mainly assessed by subjective endpoints such as the FDA responder rate or global relief, which partly explain contradictory results obtained in clinical trials with probiotic bacteria. Objective biomarkers of IBS will allow to measure the efficacy of probiotics. In the case of IBS-C, serum resolvin-D1 appears to be an interesting candidate due to its non-invasive and discriminating character compared to a healthy population. It is, inversely correlated with the severity of symptoms. Resolvin-D1 modulates the duration and intensity of inflammation by regulating the transcription of cytokines, chemokines and their receptors as well as other proteins involved in inflammation. Resolvin D1 could serve as a predictor of probiotic response based on its baseline value.
The aim of the study is to evaluate whether providing a targeted heart health education campaign to regions at high risk of heart attacks will improve ACS patient's symptom recognition and response. The intervention will be will be evaluated according to a cluster randomized, stepped wedged design. The clusters are eight local government areas (LGAs) in Victoria, Australia. The main primary outcome will be assessed in consecutive patients presenting to emergency departments from the six LGAs throughout the study period with an ED diagnoses of acute coronary syndrome.
Researchers want to learn more about the day-to-day use of Iberogast in people who have functional and motility-related gastrointestinal (stomach and bowel) diseases. Functional and motility-related stomach and bowel diseases are conditions in which the functionality of the gut, mainly the gut muscles or the gut/brain axis is disturbed. Functional and motility related stomach and bowel diseases cause symptoms like heartburn, cramps and u pain of the upper and middle part of the belly, also known as functional dyspepsia (FD), and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). IBS affects predominantly the lower digestive system and causes symptoms like pain of the belly, cramps, bloating, diarrhea, and constipation. In this study, the researchers want to learn more about Iberogast, a plant-based treatment. Iberogast is available to treat stomach and bowel diseases such as FD and IBS. Earlier studies with Iberogast have shown how well it works and how it affects the body. But, little is known about the day-to-day use of Iberogast and how satisfied patients are who take it. So in this study, the researchers want to learn more about Iberogast including: - how well it works in day-to-day use - how it affects the body, also referred to as tolerability - how it is used day-to-day - how safe it is - how satisfied patients are who take it To answer these questions, the researchers will collect information from pharmacies in Germany. Patients who get Iberogast from these pharmacies to help treat their gastrointestinal disease will complete a questionnaire before, during and after taking Iberogast. The researchers will use the results from the questionnaires to learn more about: - the disease details of the patients who are taking Iberogast - the patients' symptoms while taking Iberogast - if the patients' symptoms change after taking Iberogast - how satisfied patients are with Iberogast - if the patients had adverse events An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. This study will include patients in Germany who: - have functional stomach and bowel symptoms or disorders like FD or IBS - take Iberogast to treat symptoms of their stomach and bowel disease - are able to complete the questionnaire There will be no required tests or visits with a study doctor in this study. No treatments will be given as part of this study. The researchers will review information collected from patients who have decided for their own or by recommendation of their doctors or pharmacist to take Iberogast. The researchers will collect the results from the patient questionnaires from November 2017 to March 2018.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) which is defined as a symptomatic compression neuropathy of the median nerve at the level of the wrist. Different types of splints are used for improving the function and decreasing the pain intensity and symptoms in the rehabilitation of patients with CTS. However effectiveness of treatment by taping has never been investigated in physiotherapy and rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to compare the short-term effect of conventional physiotherapy only, and also kinesio taping and night splinting in patients with CTS.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the long-term effect of glepaglutide on the intestinal absorption, nutritional status of participants with Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS). The trial will also investigate whether glepaglutide is safe during long-term use. All participants in the trial will receive glepaglutide injections. Participants will have 14 visits with the study doctor. At 2 of these, participants will spend 48 hours at the trial site, one visit at the start of the trial and one after 24 weeks of treatment with glepaglutide. At all visits, participants will meet with trial staff and will have blood tests along with other clinical checks and tests done. Participants will be asked about their health and medical history.
The trial is a pharmacodynamic study to determine the effect of a novel regimen of aspirin 20 mg BD plus rivaroxaban 2.5 mg BD on haemostasis, fibrin clot dynamics, inflammatory markers, platelet function and arachidonic acid metabolites when compared to standard regimens of aspirin 75 mg OD and aspirin 75 mg OD plus rivaroxaban 2.5 mg BD. In a randomised open-label three-period crossover design, patient participants receiving aspirin 75 mg OD for secondary prevention of IHD will be randomised 1:1 to receive one of two sequences of aspirin: aspirin 75 mg OD, then aspirin 20 mg BD plus rivaroxaban 2.5 mg BD, then aspirin 75 mg OD plus rivaroxaban 2.5 mg BD; or aspirin 75 mg OD, then aspirin 75 mg OD plus rivaroxaban 2.5 mg BD, then aspirin 20 mg BD plus rivaroxaban 2.5 mg BD. At the end of each 14(-2) day medication period, they will attend a study visit at which blood and urine samples will be obtained, and bleeding time measured, before and 2 hours after the last dose of IMP of the treatment period. The samples will be tested for fibrin clot dynamics; inflammatory markers and cytokines; prostanoids; and platelet function. Participants will be transitioned back to standard-of-care aspirin 75 mg OD at the end of the third treatment period and followed up by telephone call 14(-2) days later.
