Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

This is a Phase I, multicenter, non-randomized, adaptive, open label, multiple ascending, intra-participant, dose-escalation study with an LTE part. The objective of the study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, PK and PD of RO7248824 in participants administered IT with AS. Two linked sets of dose escalation cohorts are planned based on two different age groups, namely participants with AS aged ≥ 5 to ≤ 12 years in cohorts A1 to A4 (with at least 2 participants ≤ 8 years old in each cohort) and AS participants aged ≥ 1 to ≤ 4 years in cohorts B1 to B5. The two sets of cohorts will be run in parallel, with each cohort A1-A4 preceding and gating the linked cohort B1-B5 (e.g., A1 precedes B1).

Primary Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness in the obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) treatment with non-invasive ventilation (NIV) set manually by polysomnography compared to the same treatment with a respirator with automatic NIV adjustment, analyzing as primary variable PaCO2 and as operational variables dropout rate for medical reasons and mortality. Secondary objectives: cost-effectiveness, clinical and functional improvement in wakefulness and during sleep, quality of life, blood pressure monitoring for 24 hours, incidence and evolution of cardiovascular events and use of health resources. Other objectives: 1) effectiveness of treatments in the following subgroups of patients: gender, age, socioeconomic status, severity of sleep apnea, VNI compliance, quality of life and comorbidities; 2) To evaluate the profile of patients with poor adherence to NIV based on clinical severity, gender, age and socioeconomic status in the whole sample and in both intervention groups.

The study is a prospective, randomized, controlled investigation designed for comparison of two groups for the reduction of respiratory distress in a CoViD-19 population, using gammaCore Sapphire (nVNS) plus standard of care (active) vs. standard of care alone (SoC), the control group. The gammaCore® (nVNS) treatments will be used acutely and prophylactically. The aims of this study are to summarize and compare the incidence of clinical events and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in patients randomized to use of gammaCore Sapphire plus standard of care vs standard of care alone in patients hospitalized for CoViD-19. Secondary objectives are demonstrate the safety of gammaCore Sapphire use in patients hospitalized for CoViD-19.

This is a Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study to assess the safety and efficacy of a single dose of Allogeneic Bone Marrow-derived Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (hMSCs) infusion in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). This study is the extension of the Phase 1 pilot study (NCT01775774) and Phase 2a study (NCT02097641).

This is a pilot study aimed at assessing the effects of moderate dose omega-3-acid ethyl esters capsules (generic Lovaza) on molecular, and intestinal microbiota changes in participants at high risk for colorectal cancer. The study will be a single arm, open label study.

Specific Aim #1 (Feasibility; primary aim): To assess the feasibility of the PP-MI group-based physical activity intervention and outcome assessments in patients with MetS. Hypothesis: The PP exercises and MI-based goal-setting sessions will be feasible: most (≥50%) of participants will complete 6/9 exercises/sessions. Furthermore, the investigators will be able to obtain objective physical activity measurement follow-up data from at least 80% of enrolled participants at the end of the intervention and 24 weeks later. Specific Aim #2 (Acceptability): To assess whether the intervention is acceptable to participants, as measured by ratings provided after each PP-MI session. Hypothesis: The intervention will be acceptable: participants will rate the PP-MI exercises with a mean score of at least 7 out of 10 on ease of completion and helpfulness. Specific Aim #3 (Outcomes): To assess whether this preliminary intervention appears to result in improvement of physical activity, related health behaviors (sedentary time, diet quality), psychological well-being (optimism, positive affect, anxiety, depression), and the exploratory outcomes of MetS-relevant physiological markers (e.g., blood pressure, weight, chart-reviewed lipids and HbA1C). Hypothesis a: The intervention will lead to improvements in physical activity, related health behaviors, optimism and positive affect, reductions in depression and anxiety at 9 weeks and 24 weeks compared to baseline (or the start of the intervention, for the WLC group). Hypothesis b: The hypothesis is that there will be improvements in the exploratory outcomes of the physiological markers, even if they do not reach significance.

A key question in efforts to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life for multiple sclerosis (MS) patients is whether a therapeutic lifestyle (diet, stress reduction and exercise) is inferior to disease-modifying drug treatments in terms of reducing multiple sclerosis related symptoms, improving function and quality of life, and reducing the number of acute inflammatory lesions and loss of brain volume. This study will prospectively assess the changes in quality of life and clinical outcomes in two cohorts of patients who are recently diagnosed with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) or relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) to begin answering that question. The goal of this project is to compare a diet and therapeutic lifestyle only treatment usual care in the setting of newly diagnosed individuals with RRMS or CIS, which is the precursor to the development of MS. Due to the COVID 19 Pandemic, the study was redesigned from an in-person study to a virtual visit only study prior to enrolling study subjects.

Fruits and vegetables are beneficial for patients with metabolic syndrome, a condition characterized by the coexistence of various risk factors (obesity, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, insulin resistance) that predispose to cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Diets such as the Mediterranean diet, rich in flavonoids and polyphenolic compounds can exert a high anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic and antiproliferative action. Several studies have shown that grape polyphenols exert a crucial protective action against the onset of cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and cancer diseases. On the other hand, little information is available on the health effects deriving from the consumption of table grapes on cell membranes lipidomic profile. On this basis, the aim of this study is the evaluation of possible changes in lipidomic profile and plasma antioxidant activity induced by a diet enriched with table grape polyphenols.

Multicenter, open-label study of various ASTX727 LD doses and schedules to assess safety, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and hematologic response in subjects with International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) risk category of low-risk or Intermediate-1 MDS. This study will be conducted in two phases. In phase 1 subjects will be randomized into 3 cohorts in a 28-day cycles. Phase 2, 80 new subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio into 2 doses/schedules.

Turtle neck also known as Text neck or anterior head syndrome is an overuse syndrome which occurs due to repetitive stress to neck, either by hanging it down or forward using phone or electronic devices. Typical signs and symptoms include pain and stiffness in the neck, shoulder pain and increase curvature of spine. It is becoming a global burden as people of almost all ages are getting affected. The objective of the study is to find out theEffect of Exercise among Turtle Neck Syndrome in Pakistani Population. A total of 100 participants will be included in the study having both males and females. The pain pattern will be assessed by Visual Analog Scale and Posture Grid Assessment tool will be used to assess posture before and after the treatment session. The study will be divided into three main sections or groups. One group will be treated by myofascial release only while other group will be treated by muscle energy technique for the management of turtle neck syndrome. Third group will receive both MFP and MET exercise. People having neck pain and those who will be willing to participate will be included in the study.
