Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The present study examined the effect of Montmorency tart cherry juice on functional and blood-based cardio-metabolic markers in humans with Metabolic Syndrome. Participants consumed Montmorency tart cherry juice or a placebo beverage continuously for 7 days in a randomised, crossover trial. Outcome variables were measured immediately prior to supplementation and post-supplementation. Furthermore, on the 7th day of supplementation outcome variables were measured pre- and up to 5 hours post-bolus. It was hypothesised that Montmorency tart cherry juice would improve cardio-metabolic markers, particularly fasting insulin and systolic blood pressure. Furthermore, the study aimed to identify the mechanism of action for any effects of Montmorency tart cherry juice on blood pressure.

Failure to adequately diagnose and treat patients with functional popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) leads to continued pain, loss of function and poor quality of life for many patients nationwide. Currently, the primary treatment for functional PAES involves muscle resection, sometimes involving large segments of muscle, which itself can lead to functional impairment. As such, a less invasive treatment for functional PAES is desirable. The focus of this work is to determine whether Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injections into the gastrocnemius muscle can lessen the mechanical forces placed on the popliteal artery by the involved muscle, thereby improving symptoms caused by impaired distal blood flow.

Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the Effect of Emotional Freedom Technique on Premenstrual Syndrome. Methodology: The research will be conducted as a randomized controlled trial. The research will be carried out with students studying at the Department of Midwifery, Faculty of Health Sciences, İnönü University, between September and October 2022. The sample size of the study was calculated as 102 people with an effect size of 0.80 and a power of 0.95. Premenstrual syndrome scale will be applied to all students participating in the research first and those who score 110 and above will be listed. Experimental and control groups will be determined by randomization. Personal information form, subjective experience unit scale and premenstrual syndrome scale will be used to collect data. SPSS 22.0 package program will be used in the evaluation of the data. The independent variable of the research is the emotional liberation technique. The dependent variable of the study is the mean scores of the participants from the subjective experience unit scale and premenstrual syndrome scale.

The study will be conducted as a randomized controlled trial with four parallel arms including four dairy products. We will investigate the health effects of including yogurt in the diet through a 16-weeks intervention period among 100 volunteering males with symptoms of the metabolic syndrome. The study has a total duration of 20 weeks as a wash out period of four weeks will be initiated prior to the intervention.

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tesomet (tesofensine + metoprolol) in subjects with PWS.

Evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy and pharmacodynamics&pharmacokinetic properties of CT303 in patients with ARDS.

Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a mode of mechanical ventilation that alternates between two levels of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) support and allows spontaneous respiratory effort at either CPAP level. It is considered as an alternative, life-saving modality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) that struggle for oxygenation. Compared to the classical ventilation, APRV has been shown to provide lower peak pressure, better oxygenation, less circulatory loss, and better gas exchange without deteriorating the hemodynamic condition of the ARDS patient. This mode is believed to help to achieve the target of opening consolidated lung areas (recruitment) and to prevent repeated opening-closing of alveoli (decruitment). However, there is still insufficient and limited proof to support this hypothesis. Recently, it has been proposed that early use of protective mechanical ventilation with APRV could be used preemptively to prevent development of ARDS in high risk patients. In that study, APRV prevented clinical and histological lung injury by protecting alveolar epithelial integrity, preserving surfactant and alveolar stability, and reducing pulmonary edema. The primary purpose of the present study was to investigate whether early use of APRV as a lung-protecting strategy was superior to the conventional methods in a patient population with high risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

The aim of this study to evaluate the effects of fibromyalgia syndrome accompanying women with chronic migraine on pain, quality of life, sleep, anxiety and depression, central sensitization and functionality.

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a growing health concern affecting up to 60 % of population with cardiovascular disease. Despite the high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality associated with this syndrome, the substantial inconvenience and cost of polysomnography recordings may delay routine evaluation. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosis. However, this is a costly and time-consuming examination. Sympathoadrenergic balance obtained from the routine Holter monitoring suggesting the presence of OSAS, can enable patients to be guided and their PSGs to be primarily held.Abnormalities in nocturnal cyclical heart rate (HR) variations have previously been described in sleep-related breathing disorders. Compared with PSG, holter electrocardiogram has the advantages of pervasion, lower cost, no need for overnight hospitalization, greater similarity to normal conditions, and good compliance. The observation of changes in heart rate associated with apneic events has a potential to be used as an alternative technique for identification of subjects with OSAS. In regard to the feasibility of screening OSAS by HRV analysis by holter electrocardiogram monitoring, it has already been reported that a 24-h electrocardiographic monitoring might be useful to diagnose OSAS. It became a more feasible technique to use following the development of a convenient recorder for OSAS screening by analyzing changes in heart rate.

Objective: This randomized controlled study aims to examine whether the education program prepared to prevent shaken baby syndrome has an effect on mothers' knowledge and attitudes. Method: Simple randomization will be used to evaluate the intervention and control groups. The study will be carried out with 90 mothers babies of 2-4 months, who applied to Akdeniz University Hospital Healthy Child Outpatient Clinic (intervention group: 45, control group: 45). After the pre-test, the mothers in the intervention group will be trained and a booklet will be given. Tele-consultancy service will be provided to mothers during the 2-month follow-up period. After 2 months of follow-up, a post-test will be applied to the mothers in the intervention group. The mothers in the control group will not be intervened after the pretest is applied. A post test will be applied 2 months after the pre-test. After the post-test, the mothers in the control group will be trained and a booklet will be given. Ethics committee approval and institutional permission were obtained for the study. Verbal and written consent will be obtained from the mothers during the data collection phase.
