Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

A double-blind study to evaluate the role of human microbiome and vitamin D in the development of long COVID and PACS in children.

The purpose of the present pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and potential efficacy of a brief, internet-delivered CBT protocol provided early after acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Metabolic syndrome (MetSyn) is a growing health concern, with up to 25% of the worlds population having the syndrome. MetSyn is a primary risk factor for cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes development, and is independently associated with all-cause mortality, making it an important disease target. The primary treatment for MetSyn is exercise and weight loss, along with medically necessary treatment. Exercise, along with dietary changes such as increased fiber and polyphenol intake can positively impact many of the metabolic abnormalities seen with MetSyn. For example, polyphenols have been shown to decrease lipid concentration and improved glucose clearance as well as decreased oxidative stress and inflammation. Powdered tart cherry capsules, which contain the skin of the fruit, provides polysaccharides (fiber) that would likely act as a substrate for gut bacteria degradation, providing energy substrates and barrier integrity to the colonocytes and increasing the bioavailability of the polyphenols to other cells in the body. However there have been no long-term investigations into the use of powdered tart cherry supplements in MetSyn, therefore we aim to determine if 60 days tart cherry supplementation modify criteria for MetSyn in currently diagnosed individuals including body mass, waist circumference, blood pressure, blood lipid levels and blood glucose control.

A phase 2a multi-center, open-label single dose level study of TPN-101 in Patients with Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome (AGS)

Aortix is a circulatory support device for chronic heart failure patients on medical management who have been hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) and are resistant to diuretic therapy. Eligible ADHF patients with diuretic resistance (irrespective of ejection fraction) will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to either the Aortix system or standard of care medical management.

The study seeks primarily to determine whether modulation of systemic and testicular sex steroids balance by aromatase inhibitors will positively affect the metabolic health and spermatogenesis of men with Klinefelter syndrome (KFS) as compared to the current state of the art for each issue. Secondary objectives of this study are (i) to unravel the heterogeneity of the reproductive and metabolic phenotype of men with KFS by performing a multi-omic analysis in a large cohort at baseline; (ii) to evaluate the efficacy of semaglutide-induced weight loss to achieve metabolic and reproductive benefit in men with Klinefelter syndrome as compared to standard testosterone replacement; (ii) to assess whether addition of hCG to aromatase inhibitors further increases intratesticular testosterone and promotes spermatogenesis in men with KFS.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous Telitacicept versus placebo in subjects with active primary Sjogren's Syndrome.

The purpose of this study is to decrease symptom burden, improve cognitive function, and improve quality of life outcomes in subjects with mild TBI and persisting post-concussion syndrome using Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment compared to a sham intervention. Specific Aims: Evaluate the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen treatment to improve outcomes for adults with persisting post-concussion syndrome. Specifically, the investigators hypothesize that a prescribed course of hyperbaric oxygen treatments (HBOT) will improve outcomes and quality of life in adults with persisting symptoms >3 months after injury. Decrease symptom burden as measured by the Rivermead Post-Concussion Symptoms Questionnaire (RPQ). Improve cognitive function as measured by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Toolbox Cognition Battery. Improve quality of life as measured by the 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36). Assess the safety and tolerability of hyperbaric oxygen treatments and compliance with treatment in adults with persisting post-concussion syndrome.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of tenapanor (25 mg and 50 mg) in pediatric patients (≥12 and <18 years old) with IBS-C when administered twice daily (BID) for 12 consecutive weeks.

Pain and limitation of shoulder mobility resulting from sub-shoulder syndrome called sub acromion impingement syndrome (SIS) are a big social problem in highly developed countries. This work aims to compare the method of treating SIS ailments taking into account the monitored exercises on their own- hands off, to the traditional method of individual physiotherapy considering manual therapy, TENS and local cryotherapy- hands on. The study will qualify people aged 18-50 years without previous injections, surgical procedures and physiotherapy within the shoulder joint. The initial examination of the participants will include: ultrasound examination, Neer test, functional mobility test according to FMS, clinical examination: palpation of the joint area, cross body adduction test, radial artery pulse test, numerical pain scale 0-10, DASH questionnaire. After the initial checkups, 60 people will be qualified for the proper examination. Selected participants will be divided into two groups of 30 people, each group consisting of 15 women and 15 men. The first group will undergo self-therapy for 3-5 months. The subjects will exercise independently for about 1.5 hours a day, three times a week. Every two weeks, each subject will be admitted to a follow-up visit, during which the physiotherapist will recommend another set of exercises and check the progress. The second group will undergo traditional physiotherapy three times a week for a period of three months. After a period of 3-5 months, both groups will undergo the same examination as initially. The results of both studies will be compared in both groups. The groups will then be compared to each other.
