Active clinical trials for "Necrosis"

This is a prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical study in Chinese subjects to compare the safety and efficacy of the Delta PLUS Femoral Head and SL-TWIN Stem with BIOLOX forte ball head and SL-PLUS Stem in total hip arthroplasty

The purpose of this study is the evaluation of the safety of autologous tissue-engineered dermal substitutes "denovoDerm" (first arm) and dermo-epidermal skin substitutes "denovoSkin" (second arm) transplanted onto the wound bed in children and adults.

Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of hyperthermic isolated limb perfusion of melphalan with or without tumor necrosis factor in treating patients who have locally advanced melanoma of the arm or leg. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Heating melphalan to several degrees above body temperature and infusing it only to the area around the tumor may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether combining melphalan with tumor necrosis factor is more effective than melphalan alone in treating melanoma.

Metabolic syndrome is associated with increased inflammatory cytokines and reduced adiponectin, that may be mediated in part by TNF production from abdominal fat. We reasoned that an anti-TNF agent would reduce C-reactive protein (CRP) and increase adiponectin, improving the inflammatory milieu associated with metabolic syndrome.

To evaluate tolerance, toxicity, and preliminary evidence of antitumor efficacy of intralesionally administered tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and to define a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for single intralesional injections. In addition, to assess the effects of TNF injections on Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) lesions as measured by P-32 magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

To determine whether pentoxifylline lowers tumor necrosis factor (TNF) levels in AIDS patients. Pentoxifylline decreases tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and therefore should decrease such TNF-intensified events as cachexia, enhanced HIV expression, and inhibition of zidovudine (AZT) activity.

Participants who choose to participate in this study, will either have their tendon repaired to tendon, so-called tenotomy repair, or tendon repaired to bone, so-called peel repair.

Incarceration and necrosis of rectal prolapse is rare and often requires urgent management. Perineal rectosigmoidectomy (Altemeir procedure) is a reasonable technique for this condition. The need for a diverting stoma depends on the patient's condition and the experience and judgement of the surgeon. A literature review was performed to determine optimal management of incarcerated and necrotic rectal prolapse, and to determine the indication for fecal diversion.

Necrotic primary molars in preschool children will be treated with the regeneration concept to provide a healthy biological environment within the root canal system and regression in clinical signs and symptoms which are the primary outcomes of regeneration treatment.

The aim of the present study is to assess clinically and radio-graphically the regenerative potential of immature permanent teeth with necrotic pulp using blood clot and Platelet rich fibrin scaffolds.
