Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

Laparoscopic Ovarian Drilling is a valid procedure for infertile anovulatory women with polycystic ovarian syndrome who failed to get pregnant or to ovulate with ovulation induction medications as clomiphene citrate or exogenous gonadotropins. The reasearchers supposed that endometrial curettage at time of laparoscopic ovarian drilling may boost fertility in these women.

Strengthening exercises of Pelvic Floor Muscles (PFM) is the first line treatment for female pelvic floor dysfunction. Actually the best position to facilitate PFM force is controversial in different studies. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of ankle positions on pelvic floor muscle force during PFM exercises. This clinical trial study was carried out on 58 women aged 25-55 years with relaxation of pelvic floor muscles who referred to women's clinic of educational hospitals of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in 1389. After clinical examination and confirmation of pelvic floor muscle relaxation, women were randomize divided into 3 groups, doing strengthening exercises of PFM in standing position with passive ankle dorsi flexion (on wooden surface with 15 degree angle)(n=20), active ankle plantar flexion with arm up (standing on toe)(n=20) and horizontal standing position (n=19) for 8 weeks. PFM exercises were instructed to women by using a pamphlet and face to face education. They were followed up every two week by telephone call and were asked to refer to women's clinic after 4 & 8 weeks. Pelvic floor muscles strength was assessed with brink score before and after intervention. Data analyzed by using analytic-descriptive statistics.

This is a single-center, open-label prospective randomized pharmacodynamic investigation of two anti platelet regimens in patients who are planned to undergo PCI for non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome(NSTE-ACS) for 24 hours Ticagrelor : loading dose(180mg) followed by maintenance dose(90mg bid) Tirofiban : 0.4ug/kg/min for 30min followed by 0.1ug/kg/min both agents will be given on top of aspirin

The purpose of this study was to compare the Efficacy and Safety of Tiropramide HCl and Octylonium bromide in the Treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

The investigators will evaluate the efficacy of multi-strain probiotics in adults with diarrhea predominant irritable bowel syndrome.

This is a standard of care treatment guideline for patients with the diagnosis of mucopolysaccharidosis type IH (MPS I, Hurler syndrome) who are being considered as candidates for first hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) according to a University of Minnesota myeloablative HSCT protocol.

The purpose of this study is to determine the therapeutics effectiveness of oral pentoxifylline treatment in patients with IBS.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk. The aim of the study was to evaluate long-term effects of inositol on some cardiovascular risk factors in PCOS patients.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common compressive focal mononeuropathy seen in clinical practice. Patients commonly experience a constellation of symptom complex brought on by compression of the median nerve as it traverse through the carpal tunnel. When compression of the nerve occurs, ischemia and mechanical disruption of nerve function may result. Pathological analysis shows a constellation of nerve injuries. Until now, no satisfactory conservative treatment method. Local steroid injections or oral steroids may result in initial relief, but relapses are frequent and have much side effects, which preclude their routine use for CTS. Full time wrist splints are claimed effective, but compromise hand function and daily activities. There are reasonable studies showing relief of pain with acupuncture on diverse pain conditions. However the therapeutic efficacy of acupuncture in CTS was less convincing in the past. Until recent decade, some case reports and few prospective studies reported the therapeutic effect of acupuncture in CTS. Other study also reported that low-level laser and microamperes transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) are effective in improvement of clinical outcome of patients with CTS. Another report suggested that TENS should be considered for the treatment of painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Therefore, the investigators perform this study to evaluate the effect of Aculife Magnetic Wave Therapist (a battery operated device with a probe electrode which contains magnetic elements that transform the oscillating current into an electromagnetic wave to stimulate the acupuncture points, simulate the effect of electroacupuncture ) on CTS and compared with that of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation(TENS). After at least 4 weeks treatment ( at least 16 treatment sessions) the therapeutic effects will be evaluated by comparison of symptom severity score, electrophysiological study, sonographic morphology study or magnetic resonance imaging study, before and after treatment, and between the different groups.

Hypothesis: Metformin treatment normalises hormone values and metabolic parameters in women with PCOS. Ovulation is restored and bleeding periods become regular. Fifty women with PCOS (Rotterdam criteria) are randomised to either placebo or metformin for 6 months. After a wash-out period of 3 months, the opposite treatment is given for another 6 months. Measurements are performed before ech treatment period, every second month during treatment and after completing treatment.
