NCT00972075
The aim of this placebo-controlled randomized study was to evaluate the efficacy of Circadin™ 2 mg in improving total night sleep duration and stabilizing the circadian clock phase in totally blind subjects with non-24 hour sleep-wake disorder.
NCT00120562
Weight loss achieved by dieting induces multiple changes. These changes include a decrease in metabolic rate (the rate in which the body burns its calories), an increase in appetite and other physiological and hormonal changes that may be the cause of failure in dieting. Many of these parameters that have never been evaluated when weight is lost after gastric bypass surgery will be tested in this study.
NCT00073853
Autologous Incubated Macrophages (ProCord) is being developed as a therapy for acute, complete spinal cord injury (SCI). The therapy is intended to reverse the loss of motor and sensory function. Following non-CNS tissue injury, macrophages quickly arrive on the scene, where they clean up cell debris, secrete different molecules thus promoting a controlled inflammatory reaction that forms the first phase of the wound healing process. While this process occurs in most tissues, including peripheral nerves, it does not occur in the CNS, where macrophages and other immune cells are relatively rare, and their activities curtailed by a biochemical mechanism known as "immune privilege." In animal studies, it appears that incubated macrophages circumvent the immune privilege, thus supporting the regrowth of axons through the injury site and enabling the recovery of neurological function. The concept derives from the pioneering research of Prof. Michal Schwartz at the Weizmann Institute of Science.
