A listing of Tokyo and Other Japanese City, Japan clinical trials actively recruiting patients volunteers.
1\. Explore the expression level of immune checkpoint VISTA in peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with cardiovascular risk factors; 2. Discuss the correlation between different risk factors (mainly hypertension, diabetes, smoking, hyperlipidemia, hyperhomocysteinemia, etc.) and the expression level of immune checkpoint VISTA in peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid …
Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) is defined as direct, deliberate bodily harm without suicidal intention. Recent studies indicate that prevalence rates are increasing worldwide, in particular under adolescents, indicating a growing public health issue. An impaired ability to regulate negative emotion has been suggested to play a potential role in NSSI behavior. …
Oral diseases are currently diagnosed by means of clinical examination and supported by surgical biopsy procedures. In particular, daily oral medicine practice is lacking the use of a routine diagnostic support to the visualization of anatomical structures located beyond the mucosal surface. Considering the growing interest in minimally invasive diagnosis, …
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an alternative non-invasive treatment to help people quit smoking. rTMS uses a magnetic field to stimulate regions of the brain that are involved in addiction. The two brain regions that are stimulated are the insula and the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, which are involved in …
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of biomarkers of crescent interest in the hematologic and oncologic field. They do not encode proteins and can alter gene expression by acting on different steps of regulation, including DNA methylation and chromatin structure. Recent data identified recurrent somatic alterations in genes involved …
In the United States, adolescents experience alarmingly high rates of major depression, and gold-standard treatments are only effective for approximately half of patients. Rumination may be a promising treatment target, as it is well-characterized at the neural level and contributes to depression onset, maintenance, and recurrence as well as predicts …
The SHAPERS study is a multicentre, open-label, randomised, pragmatic clinical trial, comparing standard-of-care neoadjuvant treatment options for older (i.e., ≥70 years) subjects with high-risk stage II and stage III rectal cancer.
Lumbar degenerative disease is one of the most common diseases in orthopedic and spinal surgery. The pathogenesis of lumbar degenerative disease is still unclear, mainly including aging degeneration and biomechanical hypothesis. In our previous research work,the investigators took lumbar disc tissue from patients who underthe investigatorsnt surgical treatment for lumbar …
This is a multicenter, observational prospective and retrospective study which aims are: 1) to compute a scoring model potentially predictive for the diagnosis of fibrosis by CMR in patients with MVP; 2) to identify specific features that may predispose to ≥ mild VAs or SCD in patients with MVP.
Most psychiatric research is based on the nosographic classifications used in current practice. At present, there is no diagnostic or prognostic biomarker for psychiatric pathologies commonly used in clinical practice. The study hypothesis is that peripheral inflammatory biomarkers could be common to several psychiatric disorders, in particular psychotic disorders (bipolar …
