Filter by:The study aims to demonstrate the preventive effect of DWP14012 20 mg for peptic ulcer is non-inferior to that of Lansoprazole 15 mg in terms of prevention of peptic ulcer and confirm the safety of DWP14012 20 mg.
Brief Summary: This is a randomized, controlled study evaluating metformin tablets administered daily for 8 weeks. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of metformin in the treatment of mild to moderately active ulcerative colitis. Disease activity will be measured using Mayo score for ulcerative colitis activity. Calculation of the score requires patients to undergo colonoscopy at the start of the study and at week 8.
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and IBD-unclassified (IBD-U), are characterised by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Over the past 50 years, the incidence of IBD has increased globally, with the highest increase in industrialised countries. During the last 25 years, the incidence of IBD has increased dramatically among teenagers in northern France, with an increase of 126% and 156% for CD and UC, respectively. Physical fitness is a set of attributes related to a person's ability to perform physical activities that require aerobic capacity, endurance, strength or flexibility and is determined by a combination of regular physical activity and genetically inherited ability. Physical fitness, widely recognised as an important health determinant, plays an important role in growth and development. Due to the evidence-based importance of physical fitness for young people's health status, attention should be paid to the assessment of physical fitness at these ages and whatever the health status. At this time, there is no study on the assessment of physical fitness in IBD pediatric patient.
Study type: Randomized, double blinded, interventional, single-site study. Two groups: Active receiving RIC therapy from the LifeCuff device and standard of care treatment without RIC. Study population: Adults (18 to 90) with diabetes myelitis presenting with diabetic foot ulcers. Randomization and sample size: Subjects will be allocated on a 1:1 ratio, yielding a minimum per protocol population (PP Population) of 15 patients in the Active group and 15 in the control group. Study timeline: Total amount of time from the Screening Visit to the Final Visit is approximately 16 weeks. For patients who meet inclusion criteria, they are randomized into Active or Control treatment groups. In addition they are stratified into groups based on wound etiology: neuropathic (defined as insensate at 2 or more of 5 sites verified by insensitivity to the 5.07 Semmes-Weinstein 10 g monofilament), ischemic (defined as ABI of 0.7 neuro-ischemic (meeting both of above criteria) Subjects will present at DMU Foot and Ankle Clinic on weeks 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 for the following measurements: 40mL venous blood draw (VEGF, SDF1a) 2mm punch biopsy (CD34+) Local wound perfusion (Laser Speckle[FK2] ) Ulcer size measured by digital planimetry (TissueAnalytics)
The Patient Empowerment Study is an observational longitudinal study among adults with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). The scope of this study is to better understand how a patient's DFU disease process and usage of the Podimetrics System can impact patient health-related quality of life. Health-related quality of life will be measured by both the generic 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire and the ulcer-specific Diabetic Foot Ulcer Scale Short Form (DFS-SF) questionnaire.
A Pilot Study to Determine the Impact of the Phoenix Wound Matrix® on the Wound Microbiome in Chronic Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Observational prospective multicenter study: baseline assessement of the disease activity by an automated endoscopic tool and follow up of 52 weeks to evaluate sustained clinical remission.
Background and rationale: Venous leg ulcers (VLU) are slow healing wounds with a recurrence rate up to 70% and a 60% risk of becoming chronic. Currently the Swiss health care system does not take in consideration social and educational needs and support for VLU patients who transition from acute care (hospital care, outpatient care) to home based self-care. To fill this gap, this study proposes to create the Social Legs Program (SLP). Overall objectives: The objectives of the proposed study are to evaluate the impact of a frequented SLP for patients with VLU in terms of their therapeutic adherence and wound healing outcomes (wound size and wound recurrence). Methodology of the planned study: A randomized controlled trial with 268 participants in three Swiss French institutions is proposed. Expected results and impact: The findings of this study will generate new knowledge about support and care management of persons with VLU who transition between acute care settings and home care settings. The findings will contribute to the evidence base of clinical practice guidelines for the care of patients with VLU.
Diet is known to play role in the complex etiology of UC.Patient with UC tend to adapt unguided dietary habits without the guidance of a dietician or physician (Dejong,M.J 2019).so identification of nutritional gaps is needed to facilitate the development of evidence-based dietary guideline and subsequently give correct dietary advice to UC patients(Haskkey,N et al 2017).
Aims:Prospectively observe the effects of Vitamin D drops supplementation on the chronic course of ulcerative colitis patients, analyze whether the effect of Vitamin D drops on UC patients is affected by factors such as disease site, disease activity, treatment, etc.Exploring the relationship between Fok I gene polymorphism and the efficacy of vitamin D supplementation. Provide a certain theoretical basis for "precision treatment" for UC patients in the future. Design：It is a prospective cohort study. Investigators include a total of 100 participants with UC according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and divide them into two groups to assess their initial disease activity and detect related indicators. At the same time，investigators detect the Fok I gene polymorphism in all participants.One group is given Vitamin D drops 400IU per day orally, and the control group do not intervene. Participants' disease activity is assessed at baseline and related indicators are determined. The disease activity is re-evaluated in the 3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th months, and the serum indexes are re-evaluated.Investigators use statistical methods to analyze whether Vitamin D drops supplementation treatment can increase the serum 25 (OH) D level of UC participants, improve the condition of UC participants,relationship with Fok I gene polymorphism，and analyze the effects of Vitamin D drops on participants with UC is affected by factors such as disease site, disease activity, and treatment.
