NCT07145619
This prospective, assessor-blinded observational cohort study will investigate the effect of adding bilateral ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block to standard intrathecal morphine (ITM) analgesia on the quality of recovery in women undergoing elective cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. All participants will receive ITM as part of routine spinal anesthesia. The TAP group will receive an additional bilateral ultrasound-guided TAP block at the end of surgery, while the control group will not receive any additional block. Both groups will receive standardized postoperative analgesia with intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV PCA). The primary outcome is the quality of recovery at 24 hours postoperatively, measured using the validated Obstetric Quality of Recovery-10 (ObsQoR-10) questionnaire. Secondary outcomes include Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) pain scores, time to first breastfeeding, time to mobilization, time to hospital discharge, and total opioid consumption in the first 24 hours after surgery. Outcome assessors will be blinded to group allocation. The study aims to determine whether TAP block enhances functional recovery, reduces pain, and decreases analgesic requirements when used alongside ITM in cesarean delivery patients.
NCT07267377
This prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial aims to compare the effects of three commonly used sedoanalgesia regimens on early cognitive recovery in patients undergoing ambulatory gynecologic surgery (dilatation and curettage). The main objective of the study is to determine whether the use of propofol-fentanyl, ketamine-fentanyl, or their combination (ketofol-fentanyl) influences the recovery of cognitive functions during the early postoperative period. The primary outcome is the change in the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score between baseline and recovery. Secondary outcomes include awakening time, Aldrete recovery score (ARS), pain intensity using the visual analog scale (VAS) at 10 and 30 minutes, hemodynamic parameters, and adverse events. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: Group P: Propofol-fentanyl Group K: Ketamine-fentanyl Group KP: Propofol + ketamine + fentanyl All patients will receive sedation to achieve a Ramsay Sedation Scale score of 3-4. Cognitive function will be assessed preoperatively and after recovery in the post-anesthesia care unit. The study seeks to determine whether the combined use of ketamine and propofol provides any advantage in cognitive recovery or hemodynamic stability compared to single-agent sedation.
NCT07267806
This is a multi-center randomized phase III clinical study of first-line Camrelizumab and Apatinib with or without intravenous FOLFOX Chemotherapy for Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC).
NCT07283562
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) accompanied by vertigo is a significant clinical challenge. Current conventional treatments often offer limited efficacy. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of Gastrodin Acupoint Injection (GAI) as an adjunctive therapy based on the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory of "treating both liver and heart." The trial compares the outcomes of patients receiving conventional therapy alone versus those receiving conventional therapy combined with GAI to determine improvements in auditory function, vestibular symptoms, and quality of life.
NCT07283666
Investigators will evaluate the effectiveness of an audit and feedback performance improvement strategy in which cardiology providers receive quarterly emails on ambulatory quality improvement goals.
NCT07283926
The pilot intervention study is designed to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a tailored medical nutrition therapy (MNT) meal-delivery for 25 elderly, low-income food insecure patients with end-stage kidney disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis at dialysis centers. Following comprehensive baseline assessments, participants will first maintain their usual dietary patterns for a 4-week control period to establish baseline nutritional and clinical parameters. This will be followed by a 4-week intervention period during which participants will receive individually tailored MNT meals designed to meet their renal-specific nutritional requirements, including energy, protein, potassium, phosphate and sodium intake. Weekly monitoring during dialysis sessions will include assessment of adherence, dietary intake, and clinical tolerance, providing detailed insights into the feasibility, safety, and potential clinical impact of the tailored nutrition intervention in this vulnerable population.
NCT07284056
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the MetaNeb® System can effectively prevent and treat early postoperative atelectasis in adult patients admitted to ICU after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. The main question it aims to answer is: can the MetaNeb® system significantly reduce the lung ultrasound score (LUSS) indicating atelectasis on postoperative days 1 and 2? Participants will be randomly assigned to either the standard treatment or MetaNeb group, undergo lung ultrasound and electrical impedance tomography (EIT) assessments on postoperative days 1 and 2, receive at least 4 sessions of MetaNeb therapy on postoperative day 1 if in the intervention group, be monitored for oxygenation indices, ICU stay duration, incidence of mechanical ventilation, need for bronchoscopic intervention, and adverse events like pneumothorax.
NCT07286734
This study investigates how well ultrasound imaging can identify damage to the radial nerve in patients with a broken upper arm bone (humeral shaft fracture). Some of these patients also have weakness or paralysis in their hand and wrist due to injury to the radial nerve. The study compares patients with and without radial nerve problems to see if early ultrasound scans can accurately detect nerve damage before surgery. All patients will receive standard care, including surgery to fix the fracture. Those with nerve problems will also have the nerve explored during surgery. The results of the ultrasound will be compared to what is found during the operation. Patients will be followed closely over 12 months to monitor nerve recovery, healing of the bone, and any complications. The goal is to improve the early diagnosis and management of nerve injuries in arm fractures, using a safe, non-invasive ultrasound scan that could help guide treatment decisions.
NCT07286747
The goal of this clinical trial is to prevent the change from prediabetes (a pre-stage of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)) to T2DM in participants with prediabetes using oral CIR-NA (a nicotinic acid formulation that is designed to be released after reaching the ileum) which targeted the gut microbiota. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is CIR-NA effective and does it prevent the change from prediabetes to T2DM? 2. Is the safety of CIR-NA that was observed in the Phase I clinical trial confirmed in subjects with prediabetes? Researchers will compare CIR-NA to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) in terms of an extended safety evaluation including safety laboratory assessments, physical examination, vital signs and 12-lead ECG. Participants will: Take CIR-NA or a placebo every day for 26-weeks. Visit the clinic at week 1 and subsequently once every 4 weeks for checkups and tests. Receive standardized lifestyle recommendations regarding nutrition and physical activity during the intervention.

It is aimed to investigate the mid-term efficacy of relaxation exercises and classical massage of the sole of the foot applied in addition to the conventional physiotherapy program in the postoperative in-hospital period in patients with proximal femur fracture.
NCT00610051
This is a global multicenter, doubleblind, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel-group study that compares ALP-1 given in a continuous infusion ( compared to placebo), 250mcg/day on majore outcomes up to 6 months after randomization in participants with advanced HF with reduced ejection fraction(HFrEF).
NCT01852370
The purpose of this study is to determine whether bilateral orthotopic lung transplantation (BOLT) followed by cadaveric partially-matched hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is safe and effective for patients aged 5-45 years with primary immunodeficiency (PID) and end-stage lung disease.
NCT03247088
This phase I/II trial studies the best dose of sorafenib when given together with busulfan and fludarabine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment and who are undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Sorafenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as busulfan and fludarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving sorafenib with busulfan and fludarabine may work better in treating patients with recurrent or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT04982419
This is a prospective, double-blind, sham-controlled, multicenter, randomized clinical trial is to study the effects of remote ischemic preconditioning on contrast-associated acute kidney injury, functional capacity, and major adverse kidney events in in patients with congestive heart failure undergoing cardiac catheterization and/or percutaneous coronary intervention.
NCT05611671
This is a Phase 2b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of three active dose regimens of MORF-057 in adult patients with moderately to severely active Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
NCT05672173
This phase II trial tests how well adding lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) to nivolumab and ibrutinib works in treating patients with Richter's transformation. Liso-cel is in a class of medications called autologous cellular immunotherapy, a type of medication prepared by using cells from patient's own blood. It works by causing the body's immune system (a group of cells, tissues, and organs that protects the body from attack by bacteria, viruses, cancer cells and other substances that cause disease) to fight the cancer cells. Nivolumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It works by helping the immune system to slow or stop the grown of cancer. Ibrutinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps stop the spread of cancer cells. Giving ibrutinib and nivolumab with Liso-cel may kill more cancer cells in patients with Richter's transformation.
NCT06087159
This study record describes a two-phase of clinical trial study. The first phase is a pilot study phase (to study feasibility and efficacy of the intervention), and the second phase is an effectiveness study phase (a fully powered evaluation study to test the intervention effectiveness). This proposal seeks to develop and test a new mHealth intervention, the mHealth Toolkit for Wellness \& Empowering Lives of School Community (mWEL) in Uganda. The mWEL-digial toolkit is a preventive intervention tool for teachers and parents as a self-help support modality. Caregivers who need support in navigating the toolkit will be supported by peer-community health workers (P-CHWs).
NCT06210490
In this study, 60 patients with HER2 overexpression UTUC with high-risk recurrence factors after radical surgery were proposed to be enrolled, and were assigned to Cohort I (receiving adjuvant therapy group) and Cohort II (refusing to receive adjuvant therapy group) according to the subjects' wishes. Cohort I subjects were treated with vedicloxacinumab in combination with radiotherapy, and vedicloxacinumab treatment lasted for 6 months. Cohort II subjects receive close observation and best supportive care. Safety evaluations and efficacy evaluations will be performed during the study period. Safety Evaluations: Safety evaluations will be conducted within 3 days prior to each dose and will continue until 30 days after the last study dose or initiation of new antitumor therapy for subjects who have received at least one dose of study drug. Evaluation of effectiveness: effectiveness evaluations will be conducted every 12 weeks (±3 days) until imaging-confirmed tumor recurrence, subject death, withdrawal of informed consent, loss to follow-up, or study termination, whichever occurs first. Tumor assessment was performed according to the Criteria for Evaluation of Efficacy in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1). For subjects with disease progression, postoperative tumor recurrence, or initiation of other antitumor therapy, survival follow-up was performed every 3 months (window period ± 14 days) from the date of notification to collect information on the subject's subsequent antitumor therapy and survival until the subject's death, withdrawal of informed consent, loss of visit, or study termination, whichever occurred first.
