Non-selective Beta-blocker in Compensated Advanced Chronic Liver Disease
The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to evaluate the effect of carvedilol (a non-selective beta-blocker) in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease under clinically significant portal hypertension or the grey zone of Baveno VII criteria. The main question it aims to answer is: Does carvedilol reduce hepatic …
Lp(a) Lowering Study of Pelacarsen (TQJ230) With Background Inclisiran in Participants With Elevated Lp(a) and Established ASCVD
The purpose of the study CTQJ230A12304, is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of pelacarsen (TQJ230) compared to placebo in participants with ASCVD who have elevated lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), and who are on background inclisiran treatment for elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
Capsule Gastric Endoscopy for Gastric Disease Screening in Simulated Home Scenarios
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the AI-integrated Capsule Gastroscopy (ACG) system in simulated home-use conditions for detecting upper gastrointestinal (UGI) abnormalities. It will also compare the diagnostic accuracy and time efficiency of AI-assisted interpretation versus manual reading of ACG data. The main …
The Effect of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy on Muscle Mass and Muscle Strength in Prostate Cancer Patients Treated With Androgen Deprivation Therapy
This study is to assess the effect of Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) on improving muscle mass and strength in prostate cancer patients with ADT.
Effect of Combining Central and Peripheral Cutaneous Electrical Stimulation on Lower Limb Motor Function in People With Stroke
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in augmenting the efficacy of the lower limb task-oriented training in people with stroke. It is hypothesize that lower limb motor function can be best improved by combining anodal tDCS with …
The Impact of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) on Glycemic Control in Older Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) Comorbid With Insomnia
This study is a RCT aiming to use CBT-I as intervention, compared to usual care as control, to elucidate the effect of CBT-I on glycemic control, sleep quality, psychological outcomes, and cognitive function in Hong Kong Chinese older T2D comorbid with insomnia.
Stand By Me: Anti-Drug Elite Adventure-Based Training Program
This project is expected to establish a network of resilient young people with good anti-drug knowledge to mobilize them to assist in current or future anti-drug work, expanding the antidrug capacity of our community. After the project, it is also anticipated that people in this network will continue to assist …
Use of Shock Wave Therapy for Neo-Vascularisation in Non-critical Coronary Artery Disease: Validation by Quantitative Cardiac MRI Perfusion
This is a randomised controlled trial aimed to demonstrate the effect of cardiac extracorporeal shock wave therapy (CSWT) on the angiogenesis effect of myocardium by determining myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) when measured by cardiac MRI before and after the treatment.
MBRP on Reducing Craving and Addictive Behaviour in Adults
Mindfulness-base interventions are promising interventions as an adjunctive therapy to be integrated into current existing anti-drug services. The advantages of MBRP can include: 1) having very low stigma as mindfulness courses are already widely accepted and used among different populations including healthy populations. The running of mindfulness courses can be …
rTMS Response Trajectories in Depression
Notwithstanding the cumulative evidence on the safety and efficacy of transcranial magnetic stimulation in depression care, the non-response rate to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) amongst treatment-resistant depression has remained substantial despite the health care cost and time incurred. There remains a compelling clinical need to find valid biomarkers to inform …
