Effect of Glutaraldehyde on Dentin Hypersensitivity After Non-surgical Periodontal Treatment
Dentin SensitivityThis randomized, placebo-controlled, triple-blind trial aims to evaluate the effect of glutaraldehyde associated or not with 37% phosphoric acid conditioning on dentin hypersensitivity reduction after non-surgical periodontal treatment, and its durability after 15 and 30 days. desensitizing treatment. Additionally, investigate the impact of these treatments on health-related quality of life. The investigators selected patients who, after scraping and planing procedures, presented at least 2 teeth meeting the following inclusion criteria: presence of gingival recession without or with a periodontal pocket up to 5mm probing depth, which presented painful sensitivity response to tactile stimulus. and evaporative. Subjects were randomized into 3 groups: Placebo Group (GP) - Placebo Gel application followed by Placebo solution (distilled water); GPG- Placebo Gel application followed by application 5% aqueous glutaraldehyde solution; GSG - Application of 37% phosphoric acid followed by 5% aqueous glutaraldehyde solution. The sensitivity of the dental elements was evaluated by pain stimuli (tactile and evaporative) with the aid of a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). A questionnaire was applied to patients with the objective of capturing psychosocial experiences, prior to treatment and one month after its completion, to assess the impact of desensitizing treatment on health-related quality of life. Data will be collected and appropriate statistical tests will be applied.
A Study to Learn About Novel Hormonal Therapies in People With Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate...
Prostatic NeoplasmsThe purpose of this study is to learn about how long novel hormonal therapies are taken by men to treat mCSPC. Novel hormonal therapies in this study include study medicines abiraterone, apalutamide, and enzalutamide. Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men. The prostate is a gland in the male body that helps make semen. Metastatic cancer is a cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Castration-sensitive prostate cancer means the cancer is being controlled by keeping the testosterone levels as low as would be expected if the testicles were removed by surgery. This is a real-world study, not a clinical trial. This means that researchers will look at what happens when men receive the treatments prescribed by their own doctor as part of their usual healthcare treatment. In this study, researchers will use insurance claim information from Medicare claims data. The study will include patients' information from the database for men who: Were identified to have mCSPC. Started treatment with novel hormonal therapy (index date) for mCSPC. Were 65 years of age or older one year before index date. Men in this study will be taking novel hormonal therapy for treatment of their mCSPC. We will describe how long men take novel hormonal therapy. This study will use patient information from insurance claims. It will take information one year before start of novel hormonal treatment until the end of insurance period or until information is available.
The Reducing Exercise Sensitivity With Exposure Training (RESET) Study
Acute Coronary SyndromeFear Anxiety1 moreThis study investigates the feasibility of conducting a home-based reducing exercise sensitivity with exposure training (RESET) intervention among acute coronary syndrome (ACS) survivors. RESET is an at-home, 2 visit intervention that involves psychoeducation, a brief, low-to-moderate intensity walking session (i.e., interoceptive exposure), and interoceptive counseling, and is designed to reduce exercise sensitivity (i.e., fear of exercise sensations) and improve participation in exercise-based secondary-prevention guidelines (cardiac rehabilitation and physical activity). The primary purpose of this pilot study is to test the feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of recruiting and administering the RESET intervention in ACS patients.
ADP101 for Oral Immunotherapy in Food-Allergic Children and Adults
Food AllergyThe purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of ADP101 in food allergic children and adults.

Ovarian NeoplasmsOvarian Cancer (OvCa)1 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine whether DCVAC/OvCa added to chemotherapy (carboplatin and gemcitabine as second line chemotherapy) may result in prolongation of progression free survival (PFS).
Single Application of Desensitizing Pastes as Dentin Sensitivity Treatment
Dentine HypersensitivityThe aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of three desensitizing toothpastes for immediate and intermediate-term relief of CDH, when compared with a control toothpaste. One hundred and thirty-eight hypersensitive teeth were diagnosed and randomized into four groups according to the therapeutic agent of each desensitizing cream tested: 1) strontium acetate and calcium carbonate, 2) calcium carbonate and arginine 8%, 3) calcium phosphate nanoparticles and 4) a control toothpaste. The desensitizing creams were applied according to the manufacturer's instructions. Cervical dentin hypersensitivity was assessed at baseline, immediately, 24 hours and 30 days after the treatment. Cold and evaporative tests were used to assess the sensitivity level.
HAL-MPE1 First-in-human
Peanut AllergyCurrently, there is no effective causal treatment for peanut allergy. A chemically modified, aluminium hydroxide adsorbed peanut extract (HAL-MPE1) for subcutaneous administration has been developed. Results from in vitro and in vivo preclinical studies demonstrate the immunotherapeutic potential of HAL-MPE1. Therefore, a phase I, single-centre clinical trial has been designed to assess the safety and tolerability of HAL-MPE1 in peanut allergic patients.
Boiled Peanut Oral Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Peanut Allergy: a Pilot Study
IgE Mediated Peanut AllergyPeanut allergy is increasingly common, especially in countries such as UK and Australia. There is currently no accepted routine clinical therapy to cure peanut allergy. Recently studies have looked at desensitising people with peanut allergy by giving them small daily doses of roasted peanut. Although this therapy works for some people, its effects are not generally long lasting and it is associated with many side effects during protocol, resulting in a significant rate of drop-outs. Pilot data suggests that boiled peanut is less immunogenic than roasted peanut, and may therefore provide a safer way of inducing desensitisation in patients who are allergic to roasted peanut, by first inducing tolerance to boiled peanut. Study hypothesis: Increasing doses of boiled peanut can induce desensitisation to roasted peanut, in peanut-allergic individuals.
Efficacy of Nasal Naphazoline Hydrocloride + Pheniramine Maleate + Panthenol Compared With Naphazoline...
FluCold1 moreThe common cold is a major cause of nasal obstruction and reaches children and adults two or more times a year. At the moment, there is no cure for the common cold, and therefore the reduction of symptoms is the focus of the treatment. The study has parallel distribution design, with two equal groups, in which one group will be treated by a combination of naphazoline hydrocloride + pheniramine maleate + panthenol and the other will receive treatment with naphazoline hydrocloride.
Assessment of Cod Protein as an Insulin-sensitizing Agent in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome....
Insulin SensitivityPolycystic Ovarian SyndromeThe objective of our study is to determine the effects of fish protein on insulin sensitivity in PCOS women with insulin resistance, and its mechanism of action on glucose and endocrine metabolism. Our working hypothesis is that dietary fish protein improves insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance, and related plasma endocrine and lipid abnormalities in PCOS women by restoring secretory β-cell function and insulin signaling to the PI 3-kinase activity/Akt pathway. We further hypothesize that fish protein will improve cycle regularity and ovarian function.
