Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

A prospective multi-centre observational study to validate the diagnostic accuracy of a transportable magnetocardiograph device for acute coronary syndrome (ACS), focusing on rule-out capability, in patients who present to the emergency department with chest pain symptoms consistent with ACS.

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a devastating inflammatory and destructive disease in critical ill patients. Preclinical studies have shown a promising perspective of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapies in ARDS. But the safety and efficacy of umbilical cord MSCs (UCMSCs) have not yet been convinced in clinical trails. This study will explore the safety and life-rescue potential of UCMSCs in refracotry ARDS.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a most common, heterogeneous, complex endocrinopathy disease.Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been used in the treatment of PCOS for many years. However, the mechanism underlying TCM remains obscure and challenging.In the present study, a metabolomics approach based on ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled with linear ion trap Orbi-trap mass spectrometer (LTQ Orbi-trap MS) is used to investigate serum metabolic changes of TCM intervention to PCOS.

ACTIVE study- a prospective observational clinical study examining the changes in quality of life and pain following dorsal root ganglion stimulation for the treatment of chronic intractable pelvic and lower limb pain.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients are often accompanied by infertility. Non-obese PCOS infertility is more difficult to treat than obese PCOS. The study included non-obese PCOS patients who had not recovered from regular menstruation after six months of metformin treatment. Half of the patients were treated with clomiphene for ovulation induction and half with GnRH pulse therapy.

To assess the effects on hormonal and metabolic changes in the PCOs patients after ingestion of Arabic gum

The design of the study includes 3 groups for women with premenstrual syndrome, 1low dose acupuncture in the low-dose group, 2 high dose acupuncture in the high-dose group, and 3 the drug group (contraceptives) . Serum marker change of PGE2, CA125, E2, and progesterone in enrolled patients will be measured before and after treatment, along with VAS and MDQ questionnaires. The treatment efficacy of different groups and the relationship between PMS and patients TCM syndrome pattern will also be recorded and estimated.

This double-blind, cross-over, randomized, controlled trial (RCT) has the aim of evaluating the effectiveness of a metabolic support therapy in two cohorts of patients with idiopathic Autism Spectrum Disorder or Phelan-McDermid syndrome, commonly associated with syndromic autism. Each patient will receive Q10 ubiquinol + Vit. E and B for 4 months and only Vit. E and B for 4 months in a double-blind, cross-over design. Primary outcome measures of efficacy include Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Childhood Autism Rating Scale, Clinical Global Impression-Improvement and Visual Analog Scales; secondary outcome measures include several questionnaires and tests of autism, cognitive function, problem behaviors, quality of life, communication and comorbid disorders, as well as measures of oxidative stress.

Family members of critically ill (ICU) patients are at risk for developing significant symptoms of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress during and after the ICU experience. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a form of therapy that can help individuals cope with stressful events in a more active and effective way. This study will examine the effectiveness of a smartphone self-care app delivering cognitive behavioral therapy in decreasing the psychological symptoms suffered by ICU family members. Half of the sample will receive the self-care app and half of the study sample will receive the usual supportive care given to family members of ICU patients. The researchers anticipate the self-care app will diminish the severity of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress symptoms experienced by ICU family members.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of ultrasound guided steroid injection versus ultrasound guided steroid hydrodissection to treat patients with CTS.
