The investigators plan to investigate the effectiveness of acupuncture at highly sensitive points, compared with lowly/non-sensitive points or no acupuncture (waiting-list), in improving pain, joint function and quality of life, among patients with KOA. The safety of acupuncture will also be assessed during the study period.

Opioids via intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV PCA) are widely used for postoperative pain control. However, effective pain control with minimized side effects of analgesic agents is still challenging. Several studies reported that preoperative pain sensitivity measured by quantitative sensory test could predict postoperative pain. Therefore, the investigators planned this trial to evaluate the effectiveness of tailored patient-controlled analgesia based on preoperative pain sensitivity measured by pressure pain threshold in patients undergoing gynecological surgery.

Patients with lymphocytic enteritis (LE), HLA-DQ2/8+, negative celiac serology and clinical and histological response to a gluten-free diet (GFD) do not fulfil the diagnostic criteria of coeliac disease (CoD). At present it remains unclear whether they suffer from coeliac gluten sensitivity (CGS) or non-coeliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). There are specific tissue markers of CoD such as anti-transglutaminase deposits (tTG) and intraepithelial lymphocytes expressing T-cell receptor (TCR) gamma/delta+. Aim: To demonstrate the existence of CGS in these patients despite having negative celiac serology. Methods: Double-blind randomized clinical trial of gluten vs placebo rechallenge for 6 months in patients with LE on a GFD. Inclusion criteria: >18 years, initial presentation with GI symptoms, HLA-DQ2/8+, negative celiac serology, good clinical and histological response to GFD. Patients were randomised to gluten (20 g/day) and placebo (maltrodextrin) (identical powder sachets mixed with meals). Clinical symptoms were analysed using visual analogue scales. Quality of life (GIQLI), adherence to diet, serology, and histological changes including gamma/delta+ IEL and tTG deposits were evaluated.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the activity of molecular response in endocrine sensitive breast cancer HER2+/HR+ patients treated with Pertuzumab-trastuzumab plus Ietrozole.

The purpose of this study is to determine if small oral and sublingual doses of milk protein are safe and effective in decreasing sensitivity to cow's milk in allergic children.

To evaluate the efficacy of two different concentrations of a tubule occlusion agent - calcium sodium phosphosilicate in treatment of dentine hypersensitivity

This trial has been designed to evaluate the efficacy of specific immunotherapy with SLITone Dermatophagoides mix compared with placebo in subjects with house dust mite allergic asthma, based on asthma medication use during a period of 2 months with a high environmental exposure to mites (autumn 2008).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of anti-IgE treatment will make peanut oral immunotherapy safer, more tolerable, and more effective in treating peanut allergy.
