Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The selection of the optimal antithrombotic therapy in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is challenging. Until recently, triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT) consisting in Aspirin plus Clopidogrel plus OAC was considered the treatment of choice. While efficiently preventing ischaemic events, TAT is associated with an increase in bleeding complications. Therefore, in the past years several randomized controlled trials challenged TAT by comparing a triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT) regimen based on Vitamin K antagonists (VKA) to a dual antithrombotic regimen (DAT) based on non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) and P2Y12-inhibitors, mainly Clopidogrel in patients with AF undergoing PCI. However, approximately 30-40% of patients show low response to Clopidogrel and are not adequately protected against ischaemic events, in particular when presenting with ACS. This is supported by a recent meta-analysis reporting that TAT compared to DAT is associated with lower rates of stent thrombosis within 30 days after PCI. It is therefore reasonable to assume that a more potent platelet inhibition within the first month after PCI might reduce the rate of ischaemic complications observed in AF patients undergoing PCI, when receiving DAT. Moreover, a subsequent de-escalation to a less potent platelet inhibition one month after PCI might prevent an increase in bleeding complications. In EPIDAURUS the investigators will therefore test the hypothesis that DAT using NOAC plus an escalated antiplatelet therapy with a potent P2Y12-inhibitor for one month followed by Clopidogrel reduces ischaemic events without a relevant increase in bleeding complications in patients with AF and ACS undergoing PCI compared to standard DAT with NOAC plus Clopidogrel.

The objective of this study is to determine if tAN therapy can reduce the median number of days of oral morphine administered to an infant after start of treatment.

Over 7,000 people in the UK are living with Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS). Approximately 1,600 of these individuals (23%) die each year from their disease. MDS affects the production of blood cells by the bone marrow, causing chronic fatigue, bleeding, and recurrent infections. Many patients die because their disease transforms into acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) an even more aggressive blood cancer. The general outlook for AML is poor, but when AML arises from MDS it is worse. REPAIR-MDS seeks to repurpose existing drugs in order to dramatically improve the outlook, health and quality of life of people with MDS. The trial treatments aim to improve the production of healthy functioning blood and immune cells that will fight against infections and boost the immune system's action against the MDS clone. REPAIR-MDS design is a is a multicentre open label phase 2 randomised controlled trial which will compare VBaP (sodium valproate, bezafibrate, medroxyprogesterone) with danazol in patients who have received either Erythropoiesis Stimulating Agents (ESAs) and lost response, not responded to ESAs or are deemed unlikely to respond to ESAs.

The aim of the clinical trial is to investigate the characteristics of patients, who respond vs. not respond to exercise therapy for the nonsurgical management of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS).

A double-blind, randomized, controlled trial was conducted with the main objective of evaluating if patients with clinical assessment and VExUS reach decongestion faster within a maximum period of 7 days during the hospital stay. Likewise, the study will describe those patients who experience a decrease in serum creatinine (CrS), NT-proBNP at discharge, greater diuretic adjustment, rate of intrahospital readmission, and 30-day mortality.

Sphincter sparing rectal resection surgery, either total mesorectal excision (TME) with a temporary loop ileostomy or partial mesorectal excision (PME), is the mainstay of rectal cancer treatment , however, these treatments are associated with the development of Low anterior resection syndrome (LARS). This syndrome is characterized by a constellation of symptoms such as fecal frequency, urgency and clustering of bowel movements and can lead to fecal and flatus incontinence. There is no gold standard therapy designed to treat the root cause of the problems associated with LARS. Paula Method of exercises, based on the theory that the body has the natural ability to self-heal and that all sphincter muscles in the body affect one another other and thus, exercising one healthy region can positively impact another. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of the Paula Method of exercises in patients post sphincter sparing rectal resection surgery with LARS Syndrome.

The purpose of this study is to identify the doses of the oral azacitidine formulations and cedazuridine (CED) tablets which achieve a total AUC for AZA comparable to that for AZA injection at 75 mg/m2

The objective of the study is to establish a de-scaling strategy of P2Y12 inhibitors (P2Y12 i) with a decrease in hemorrhagic events without increasing ischemic complications based on a Platelet Function Test (PFT).

According to International Urogynecological Association and International Continence Society joint report on the terminology for female pelvic floor dysfunction, overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) is defined as urinary urgency, usually accompanied by frequency and nocturia, with or without urgency urinary incontinence, in the absence of urinary tract infection or other obvious pathology. Bladder training lasting for a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks is indicated as a first-line treatment. The investigators' goal is to compare changes in satisfaction, measured in terms of quality of life, in 2 groups of women with different main accompanying symptoms in OAB (frequency vs. nocturia), before and after bladder training utilizing telemedicine (virtual bladder training), for 4 to 6 weeks.

This is a clinical trial where adolescents aged 10-16 years old with Tourette Syndrome (or chronic tic disorder) are randomized to receive either real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) neurofeedback targeting the supplementary motor area (for the experimental intervention) or real-time fMRI neurofeedback (NF) from a control region (for the control intervention).
