Filter by:Hamstring injuries are highly prevalent among cricket players, comprising 10% of all injuries in field-based team sports. Eccentric strength deficits and imbalances in muscle strength are linked to a higher risk of such injuries. Our randomized clinical trial aims to assess eccentric hamstring strength using eccentric banded leg curls and eccentric cable leg curl exercises, measured by the Nordbord device. This tool provides accurate measurements of eccentric hamstring strength, power, and endurance, crucial for injury prevention in athletes. Thirty-two male professional cricketers will participate, divided into two groups receiving different exercise plans. Each group will perform 15 reps in 3 sets with rest intervals, four times a week for four months. The Nordbord device will assess hamstring strength before and after the exercise plan. Statistical analysis will be done using SPSS V25, employing descriptive statistics for frequency distribution and inferential statistics such as t-tests to compare outcomes between treatment groups.
The goal of this observational study is to identify the characteristics of brain functional connectivity in refractory constipation and fluoxetine-sensitive patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Investigating the alterations in brain functional connectivity in patients with refractory constipation and fluoxetine-sensitive patients - Assessing the predictive value of brain functional connectivity regarding the efficacy of fluoxetine and standard protocol treatments for constipation. Participants will receive: - Standard physiological and psychological assessments of constipation - BOLD-fMRI tests - Standard protocol and fluoxetine treatment If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare: Refractory group/Fluoxetine sensitive group to see the specific brain alterations.
The aim of study is this to evaluate the efficacy and safety of continuous linezolid infusion versus the standard regimen in treating critically ill patients with septic shock in the ICU
The investigators will enroll subjects 8 - < 18 years of age, fulfilling Rome IV criteria for functional constipation. Participants will be randomly assigned to either Lubiprostone treatment (study group), or the control group (will receive either lactulose or Bisacodyl tablets). safety and efficacy will be assessed.
There is an urgent need to identify effective treatments for SARS-CoV-2 infection that helps people recover quicker and reduces the need for hospital admission. The investigators develop an open, adaptive, platform trial to evaluate treatments, Fluvoxamine, Bromhexine, Cyproheptadine, and Niclosamide suitable for use in the community for treating COVID-like-illness that might help people recover sooner and prevent hospitalisation.
A number of anti-PD-1/L1 monoclonal antibodies have been approved for the treatment of various advanced tumors in the world, and many studies on anti-PD-1 /L1 monoclonal antibodies for breast cancer are also being carried out. HX008 (Taizhou Hanzhong Biomedical Co., Ltd.China) combined gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) regimen for first-line treatment of advanced triple negative breast cancer has been shown good efficacy. On the other hand,HRD as the target of PARP inhibitor therapy in the treatment of breast cancer has a broad prospect, In HRD tumor patients, the use of PARPi can make obstacles of DNA damage repair(DDR), accumulation of DNA damage, thus promote the apoptosis of tumor cells. Several PARPi have been approved worldwide (including Olaparib, Rucaparib, Niraparib, Talazoparib, Veliparib) for the treatment of ovarian and/or breast cancer. Theoretically, PARPi and anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody can play a synergistic mechanism. In this study, HX008 combined with Niraparib is designed to treat metastatic breast cancer patients with DDR gene (BRCA1/2, PALB2, CHEK2, ATM, ATR, BAP1, BARD1, BLM, BRIP1, CHEK1, CDK12, FANCA, FANCC, FANCD2, FANCE, FANCF, FANCM, MRE11A, NBN, PTEN, RAD50, RAD51C, RAD51D, WRN) pathogenic/suspected pathogenic germline mutation, so as to explore the possibility of more combined therapy for breast cancer to achieve better therapeutic effect.
This is a multicentre, non-randomized, open-label, Phase I/II clinical trial of MDG1011, an investigational medicinal product (IMP), consisting of patient-derived autologous T cells, persistently transduced with a Preferentially Expressed Antigen in Melanoma (PRAME)-specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*02:01-restricted T cell receptor (TCR).
This application is being submitted as a follow-up to Protocol "Oral Immunotherapy for Induction of Tolerance in Peanut Allergic Children-The IMPACT Study." The IMPACT study was a double-blind, placebo-controlled study of peanut oral immunotherapy in children 12-48 months of age. As part this protocol, all participants who received placebo treatment were promised the opportunity to receive open label treatment at the conclusion of the double-blind phase and initial follow-up. At the time of submitting that protocol, the investigator did not specify any detailed protocol for the open label crossover treatment, as this is an evolving field, but the investigator is now ready to offer this open label treatment as promised.
Current HIV treatment guidelines recommend a combination of drugs for the maintenance of antiretroviral therapy (ART). Simplification is considered critical to further scale-up of treatment, to support retention in care and to reduce costs. Dolutegravir is a once daily integrase inhibitor that shows very good tolerability, efficacy, and distinctive resistance profile. The researchers aim at investigating the feasibility of dolutegravir monotherapy in maintenance therapy. Briefly, 10 virologically suppressed patients for at least six months on conventional triple ART of dolutegravir plus two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) will be switched to dolutegravir monotherapy for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint is the number of patients completing 24 weeks of dolutegravir monotherapy without experiencing virological failure.
Long term toxicity of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) is a substantial contributor to morbidity and mortality in chronically infected HIV positive individuals. To date it is still debated, whether long term nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI's) -sparing regimens are practicable or even superior compared to standard of care cART in terms of efficacy, safety and tolerability. In addition, data about efficacy of integrase inhibitor (INSTI) based monotherapy is lacking. We aim at investigating the efficacy of standard of care combination antiretroviral therapy with a simplified dolutegravir monotherapy in patients with a primary HIV-1 infection under suppressive early standard of care antiretroviral therapy. Briefly, hundred-thirty-eight patients with a documented primary HIV1- infection (PHI) will be recruited from the Zurich Primary HIV-1 Infection Study (ZHPI), which is an open label, non-randomized, observational, single-center study (http://clinicaltrials.gov, ID 5 NCT00537966). All subjects formerly underwent early cART consisting of either a protease inhibitor (PI) or a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) or a INSTI in combination with two NRTIs at the time point of enrolment in the ZPHI and must be under a fully suppressive ART (i.e., <50 copies/ml) for at least 48 weeks at the time point of randomisation. The primary end point is the proportion of individuals with a viral failure at week 48 or before.
