Active clinical trials for "Hypersensitivity"

Obesity is a chronic disease of multifactorial etiology that develops from the interaction of the influence of nutritive , metabolic , cellular and molecular psychological factors. Tadalafil is Is a drug inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5), responsible for inactivating the vasodilator nitric oxide. USING paragraph was mainly treat erectile dysfunction, and recently approved for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension , it is innovative because of its longer life means, provides efficacy after 36 hours and the highest selectivity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of tadalafil on insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion in obese men. The investigators hypothesis is that the administration of tadalafil improve the insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion in obese men.

The investigators designed this randomized double blind (patients/ assessor) clinical trial to compare the therapeutic effects of Metformin monotherapy with Metformin and acupuncture combined therapy on weight loss and insulin sensitivity among overweight/obese type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. We compared the inflammatory markers, lipid profiles, and adipokines in overweight/obese T2DM patients receiving the combined therapy to those receiving the Metformin monotherapy, to understand whether acupuncture plus Metformin is a better approach then Metformin only on treating diabetes.

Aspirin-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease, or AERD, consists of aspirin sensitivity, asthma and nasal polyps. It is currently managed by chronic steroid use, multiple endoscopic sinus surgeries and/or aspirin desensitization. However, these treatments have potential adverse effects. A theory has been postulated that decreasing the level of dietary salicylates may help in long-term control of disease. A current trial is in the works to evaluate the clinical outcomes of decreased salicylate, but measurements of biochemical markers of disease has not yet been done. The hypothesis is that decreased dietary salicylates will result in a decrease in urinary salicylates and inflammatory markers of disease, cys-leukotrienes, which are typically elevated in this disease.

This study is for people with sensitive teeth and involves going to the dentist for 4 visits over 6 weeks. At each visit the dentist will look at the mouth, teeth, tongue and gums of participants, and check for sensitive teeth. During the first 2 weeks, participants will brush their teeth 2 times a day with the fluoride toothpaste provided. Then, if they qualify to continue in the study, participants will be assigned to one of two treatment groups for the last 4 weeks. Both groups will use assigned toothpaste currently sold on the market. Both groups will each have an investigative mouth rinse to use as well. Participants will have an equal chance of being assigned to any one of the three groups. For the next 4 weeks, participants will use their assigned products according to the directions provided. At Visit 1, participants will be supervised while they brush their teeth to ensure they understand the directions. They will also have supervised use of the products at Visit 2. Results will be analyzed to assess whether the mouthwashes help to reduce tooth sensitivity during the study.

This is a follow-up cohort study of 6 years old children born preterm in Denmark from 2004-2008, and at four different neonatal units. During hospitalisation they received breast milk with fortification. At time of discharge there were made 3 different nutrition groups; if possible they were randomised into one of two groups: Breastfeeding solely Breastfeeding with fortification If breastfeeding was not possible they were put in group 3 and were bottle fed with: Preterm formula This nutrition intervention went on for 4 month. At the age of 6, the children will be invited to come for an ambulant control and other examinations regarding growth, allergy and metabolic syndrome.

To evaluate the effects on contrast sensitivity (CS) measurements of intravitreal bevacizumab injections associated with standard metabolic control in eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME) associated with standard metabolic control.

This is a phase IIb clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous immunotherapy with a modified parvalbumin called mCyp c 1 for the treatment of fish allergy to subjects allergic to fish.

Aim of this study was to assess and compare the efficacy of a commercially available novel herbal mouthwash containing potassium nitrate on Dentinal Hypersensitivity (DH) compared to a placebo and non herbal potassium nitrate over a period of 12 weeks.

The aim of this pilot research project is to compare the clinical effect on dentinal hypersensitivity of three products: Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (CPP-ACP) paste with fluoride, 5000 Sodium Fluoride (NaF) dentifrice containing Tri-Calcium Phosphate (TCP), and a dentifrice containing Potassium Nitrate. The hypothesis of this study is that CPP-ACP with fluoride and 5000ppm NaF with TCP will exhibit a greater reduction in dentinal hypersensitivity compared to the control (dentifrice containing Potassium Nitrate). The results of this pilot study will validate or negate the need for a larger clinical study that may provide generalizable results for using caries-prevention products with the additional benefit of minimizing dentinal hypersensitivity.

Objectives to verify effect of Korean red ginseng on cold hypersensitivity of hands and feet in women to establish scientific evidence for the use of Korean red ginseng by investigating changes of infrared thermography Hypothesis The hypothesis is that Korean red ginseng will reduce cold hypersensitivity of hands and feet more effectively than placebo after 8 weeks administration of interventions- Korean red ginseng or the placebo.
