Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

This phase I/II trial studies how well Jaktinib and azacytidine work in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes with myelofibrosis or myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm with myelofibrosis. Giving Jaktinib and azacytidine may be an effective treatment for myelodysplastic syndromes with myelofibrosis or myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm with myelofibrosis.

The AMILOR study compares treatment of edema in nephrotic syndrome with Amiloride vs. Furosemide.

In a longitudinal cohort project, the objective is to evaluate general prognostic and individual risk factors for long lasting shoulder pain, with a specific focus on evaluation of the association between metabolic syndrome and tendinopathy, while simultaneous adjusting for other potential prognostic candidate variables (PROGRESS Theme I-II).

Acute heart failure (HF) is a common complication of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) associated with poor prognosis. Diagnosis of congestive HF in patients with initial, non-severe symptoms and signs may be challenging and early stages of this complication may be missed. To assess severity of HF in patients with ACS Killip classification is widely used but it does not take into account mild manifestations of HF. Thus, patients without rales in the lungs and/or S3 will be labelled as Killip class 1. The aim of this study is to determine the frequency, risk factors, abilities for early diagnosis using routine medical evaluation and clinical significance of subclinical and mildly symptomatic congestive HF in patients with ACS without persistent ST-segment elevation (NSTEACS). The study will include 200 patients with NSTEACS without history of severe HF and overt signs of congestion at presentation. Presence and severity of dyspnea (according to Likert ans Visual analog scales), physical signs of heart failure (respiratory rate, distention of jugular veins, S3), peripheral oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry, heart rate and signs of ischemia on ECG, signs of congestion according to lung and vena cava inferior ultrasound and chest X-Ray/CT as well as levels of NT-proBNP, hsTn, CRP and FABP at presentation will be evaluated. Presence and severity of dyspnea, physical signs of heart failure, oxygen saturation, heart rate and signs of ischemia on ECG, lung and vena cava inferior ultrasound will be re-assessed after 6, 12 and 24 hours. During hospitalization occurrence or worsening of clinical HF. Clinical events will be followed up to 12 months after hospitalization.

This trial will study the use of USB002 given as an intravenous infusion in patients with respiratory distress due to infection with COVID-19.

CRPS is a complex pain condition that usually develops in response to trauma and immobilization which is very painful and debilitating. There is no consensus about the underlying mechanisms which might be a combination of mentally and physically factors. At the moment, better diagnostic clarification and better pain relieving treatment is needed. The aim of this study is to investigate changes in the perception of pain in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), and whether this perception can be affected by treatment with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on the painful area. The study will consist of two parts. One in which patients' perception of pain will be compared to the perception of pain in healthy controls. Another in which the included patients are randomly allocated into a group receiving medical treatment plus treatment with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on the painful area or in a group receiving medical treatment as usual (MED).Patients will be evaluated four times. At the start of the study, immediately after treatment, and again at 6 and 12 months after treatment. The evaluation consists of an overall assessment of pain, response to standardized sensory stimuli, and questionnaires about quality of life, physical capacity and mentally/socially well-being.

A Study of Vurolenatide in Adult Patients with Short Bowel Syndrome.

Single blind randomized clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of hydroxychloroquine and dexamethasone as treatment for severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) related to coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). We hypothesize that dexamethasone (20 mg for 5 days followed by 10 mg for 5 days) combined with 600 mg per day dose of hydroxychloroquine for 10 days will reduce the 28-day mortality compared to hydroxychloroquine alone in patients with severe ARDS related COVID-19.

Currently, fractional flow reserve (FFR) is regarded as a gold-standard invasive method to define lesion-specific ischemia and FFR-guided PCI has been proven to reduce unnecessary revascularization and to enhance patient's clinical outcomes. Therefore, current guidelines recommend FFR measurement for intermediate coronary stenosis when there is no definite evidence of lesion-specific ischemia. However, previous evidences which well demonstrated the benefit of FFR-guided strategy were mostly generated from patients with stable coronary artery disease.4 FFR may be overestimated and the hemodynamic relevance of a coronary stenosis underestimated in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Its role in ACS patients still needs to be defined although several studies have recently published addressing the value of FFR-guided PCI in ACS. In fact, recent evidence suggests that culprit lesions of patients presenting with a non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction that were deferred based on a "negative" FFR have a relatively high event rate, calling into question the use of FFR in that patient population.

The study purpose is to determine the hypolipidemic effect of Alirocumab co-administered with atorvastatin on levels of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and LDL compared to monotherapy with atorvastatin in patients with dyslipidemia secondary to nephrotic syndrome.
