Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

There is evidence supporting that physical therapy interventions can be effective for the management of patients with CTS. No consensus on the best approach exist. It seems clear that the median nerve is affected in several ways (compression, inflammation, excursion) in carpal tunnel syndrome. Percutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation is a treatment approach consisting of the application of an electrical current throughout needling filaments placed close to the nerve, in this case the median nerve. The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare changes in function, symptom severity and the intensity of pain after the application of Percutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation vs. endoscopic surgery in women with CTS at short- and long-term follow-up periods.

To investigate the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment with oral trofinetide in girls and women with Rett syndrome

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a severe pain condition affecting 3-8 million people in the United States lacking treatments that work. Emotional suffering is common in IC/BPS and known to make physical symptoms worse, and studies show patient sub-groups respond differently to treatment. By creating and testing a psychosocial intervention specific to IC/BPS, we will learn if this intervention improves patient wellness, who the intervention works best for, and how the body's pain processing influences outcomes.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of APL-9 in adults with mild to moderate ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome) caused by COVID-19 who are hospitalized and require supplemental oxygen therapy with or without mechanical ventilation. It is thought that COVID-19 activates the complement system, part of the immune system that responds to infection or tissue damage, and increases inflammation in the lungs. APL-9 has been designed to inhibit or block activation of part of the complement pathway, and potentially reduce inflammation in the lungs. Part 1 of the study is open-label to evaluate safety; all participants will receive APL-9 plus standard of care. Part 2 of the study is double-blind, randomized; participants will receive either APL-9 or the vehicle-control plus standard of care.

lines of evidence that support nature of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) as "defective mineralocorticoid response" are cited, our hypothesis is tested clinically in both prophylaxis against and treatment of OHSS.

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) induces high mortality, particularly in the context of COVID-19 disease. Preliminary data from patients with ARDS related to COVID-19 disease appear to show significant effectiveness of prone positioning in intubated patients in terms of oxygenation as well as nasal high flow therapy before intubation. It should be noted that in Jiangsu province, secondarily affected, nasal high flow combined with the prone position was successfully integrated into care protocols. The investigators hypothesize that the combined application of nasal high flow and prone positioning can significantly improve the outcome of patients suffering from COVID-19 pneumonia by reducing the need for tracheal intubation and associated therapeutics such as sedation and paralysis, resulting in both individual and collective benefits in terms of use of scarce critical care resources.

Overweight and obesity are increasing global health problems and the most important contributors to morbidity and mortality. The maintenance of long-term weight loss is difficult, and individuals often regain weight after an intervention program is finished. It is of interest to find ways to prevent and alleviate metabolic syndrome (MetS), beyond the known effects of lifestyle modification and weight loss. Fish has been proposed as a food that may have favorable effects on metabolic health. There is evidence that cod, and other marine fish, may contain bioactive peptides that have potentially important health effects in humans. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of adding a marine protein hydrolysate (MPH) supplement to the diet over an 8-week period in a group of adults with established MetS. The investigators expect that this will lead to beneficial changes in the components of MetS and to an overall healthier metabolic profile.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating, multiple subcutaneous (SC) doses of VIB7734 in participants with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (CLE), Sjogren's Syndrome, Systemic Sclerosis, Polymyositis, and Dermatomyositis.

Irritable bowel syndrom (IBS) is a common chronic gastrointestinal disorder that affects 10-20% of the world population. The prevalence of IBS in Norway is between 8% and 25%. The pathophysiology of IBS is incompletely understood, and there is no effective treatment for this condition. Imbalance (dysbiosis) of the gut microbiome has been found in patients with IBS. In the absence of effective method to restore the dysbiosis, transplantation of a microbiome from healthy individuals with well-functioning gut (FMT) to those with IBS has been performed. Two randomized double blind placebo-controlled (RCT) studies have been published recently. Whereas it was reported in one study that FMT reduced symptom and improved quality of life in patients with IBS, FMT had no effect in the other study. In order to clarify these contradictory results, a new RCT study that enrolled larger number of patients is required. In this study, the investigators intend to recruit 170 IBS patients from those attending outdoor clinic at Stord hospital in a randomized, double blind placebo trial. A single healthy donor with well-characterized microbiome is going to be used. The effects on symptoms, quality of life, fatigue as well as dysbiosis before and after FMT are going to be investigated. The possible mechanisms behind the effects if any of FMT such as changes in intestinal stem cells, enteroendocrine cells and local immune defense shall be also investigated. The patients are going to be randomized either to placebo (own faces), 30 g or 60 g of the donor faces in ratio 1:1:1.

This is an open-label, single-arm multicenter, phase II study. The primary objective is to assess the efficacy of bemcentinib (BGB324) a highly selective inhibitor of the AXL receptor tyrosine kinase for the treatment of AML and MDS patients failing or being refractory to first line hypomethylating agent (HMA) treatment. Furthermore, safety, disease progression, treatment failure will be assessed. A total of 43 patients will be included in the trial.
