Active clinical trials for "Arthritis"

Long-term Observational Study to Evaluation the Safety of FURESTEM-RA Inj(K0202)

The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy of a novel dynamic compression intramedullary nail for tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) arthrodesis.

Since june 2021, vaccination against the SARS-Cov2 virus is recommanded in France to all children from 12 to 18 years old. In the specific population of teenagers living with juvenile arthritis, the vaccine seems to be safe and well tolerated. It has been shown previously that this population has a vaccine coverage lower than the global population even though few datas are available on this topic The aim of this resarch is to study the vaccination coverage against the SARS-Cov2 virus and more specifically the reasons why adolescents were or were not vaccinated in the population of adolescents with juvenile arthitis followed up in Angers, Nantes and Rennes. For this purpose, a review of the medical record will be done and a questionnaire will be adressed to the family of patients in order to collect informations about the disease, the treatments, the motives or obstacles to vaccination. Secondaries end points are safety of the vaccination, consequences on the juvenile arthritis (such as changes in the medication, flare-up of the illness) and the occurence of covid infection after vaccination.

In our institution, many patients undergo staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty at weekly intervals, and most of the patients are older adults with degenerative arthritis. As recommended, the older adult patients who undergoing total knee arthroplasty drink carbohydrate-containing fluid (400 ml) 2 hours prior to surgery. In this type of surgery, there are additional points to consider when applying the fasting guidelines. This is because, in addition to the factor of advanced age, which can affect gastric emptying time, the patient's physical, medical, and psychological conditions at the first and the second operation may be different. For example, the effect of the acute pain that occurs after the first total knee arthroplasty and subsequent opioids administered on gastric motility cannot be ignored. However, to date, there have been no studies examining the association of stress (emotional and surgical) and residual gastric volume of older adult patients with staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty and whether there is a difference according to the stage when carbohydrate-containing fluid is ingested. In the present study, the investigators will evaluate the effect of emotional stress, surgical stress, pain, and the use of opioids on the residual gastric volume in older adults undergoing staged-bilateral total knee arthroplasty.

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease of the joints characterized by the swelling of multiple joints and tenderness caused by progressive inflammatory synovitis, which leads to serious and debilitating diseases. Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin condition that may cause a rash and itching due to inflammation of the skin. Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a form of chronic arthritis causing inflammation in the spine. This can cause pain and stiffness in the back. Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a type of arthritis (swelling and stiffness in the joints) that is frequently seen in trial participants who also have the skin condition psoriasis. It is caused by the body's immune system mistakenly attacking healthy joint tissue causing inflammation, joint damage, disability, and a reduced life expectancy. This study will assess the adverse events and change in disease symptoms in Korean participants with RA, AD, AS or PsA. Upadacitinib is a drug approved for the treatment of moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis, atopic dermatitis, ankylosing spondylitis or psoriatic arthritis. Korean participants who have been prescribed upadacitinib by their physicians will be enrolled. Approximately, 3600 participants will be enrolled this study, in multiple sites within Korea. Participants will receive Upadacitinib as prescribed by the physician and will be followed for approximately 28 weeks. There will be no additional burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic and will be asked to provide additional information by questionnaire at each visit.

One-center observational study aimed at determining the survival of patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with targeted synthetic disease-modifying drugs (FAMEsd) and biologic disease-modifying drugs (FAMEb). These patients will be administered a series of medications and a follow-up will be carried out to analyze their evolution.

This observational study is conducted in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the primary total shoulder arthroplasty with the Permedica's MIRAI Modular Shoulder Prosthesis System on the general population of patients who are about to undergo this surgery for every indication. Patients requiring a revision shoulder arthroplasty will not be enrolled. The effectiveness will be evaluated in terms of recovery of shoulder function and stability of the prosthetic implant. The incidence of complications, adverse and serious adverse events will also be studied. Additional study aim is to evaluate a medium/long term survival of the prosthesis. The duration of the study per single subject is 5 years.

The objective of this prospective study is to demonstrate accuracy of a limp detection model using a healthcare provider assessment as the non-reference standard.

This is an experimental medicine, single-centre, observational test-retest study to evaluate Filgotinib's mechanism of analgesic action in RA patients. The investigators hypothesize that Filgotinib's mechanism of analgesic action is determined by at least two factors. The first is related to those CNS sensitization pathways seen in fibromyalgia, specifically DMN-insula brain functional connectivity and insular glutamate. The second is related to peripheral inflammation, specifically joint synovitis, blood cytokines/chemokines and DAN-LIPL functional brain connectivity. The CNS sensitization pain pathways related to fibromyalgia are more quickly modified compared to those related to peripheral inflammation and help explain Filgotinib's rapid onset of effect.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Iguratimod combined with Tofacitinib in the treatment of csDMARD-IR patients with active moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis
