Deprescribing Inappropriate Proton Pump Inhibitors
The DROPIT Trial is an interventional, open-labelled, cluster-randomized controlled trial conducted in the Swiss primary care setting. It aims to evaluate an intervention to guide the deprescribing of inappropriate proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs). Therefore, the trial investigates whether the study intervention leads to the deprescribing of inappropriate PPI prescription while ensuring …
Strict Versus Permissive Thresholds for Initiation of Pharmacotherapy in Gestational Diabetes (START 2)
The aim of our study is to compare neonatal and maternal outcomes using different thresholds for the initiation and titration of pharmacotherapy for gestational diabetes (GDM). Our goal is to compare a Strict and permissive threshold. The Strict study arm target range will be 65-120 mg/dL, with time in range …
The Application of a Biphasic Calcium Sulfate Graft Material in Sinus Floor Elevation
Pneumatization of the maxillary sinus may lead to insufficient bone volume for dental implant placement in the edentulous posterior maxilla. Sinus floor elevation (SFE) surgery with the lateral window technique is a safe and predictable surgical intervention to restore bone height in the maxillary premolar and molar areas. According to …
Irrisept Solution for Instrumented Spine Surgery
Various spine surgeons perform wound irrigation using saline mixed with vancomycin, relying on mechanical debridement of non-viable tissue, physical disruption of biofilm, and bacteriostatic effect against gram positive flora. When used as a powder, topical application of vancomycin has demonstrated increased risk of symptomatic seroma formation, which is an adverse …
TPO-RA Treatment on Immune Tolerance Induction of ITP Patients With Sustained Platelet Recovery After Treatment Termination
The aim of this study was to observe whether maintaining a high level of platelet count after TPO-RA in patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) can induce immune tolerance, develop immune balance in ITP patients, and enable patients to achieve a sustained response (SRoT) after TPO-RA discontinuation.
Effect of Empagliflozin on Left Atrial Function in Adults at Risk for Heart Failure
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) reduce CVD events, including incident HF. SGLT2 is a glucose transport protein in the kidneys. Inhibition of this protein results in glucosuria and lower serum blood sugar. The SGLT2i medications were initially approved to treat type 2 diabetes (T2D). In 2015, Zinman et al. published …
Trial of Venovenous ECMO to De-Sedate, Extubate and Mobilise in Hypoxic Respiratory Failure
To determine whether a strategy of adding venovenous ECMO to mechanical ventilation, as compared to mechanical ventilation alone, increases the number of intensive care free days at day 60, in patients with moderate to severe acute hypoxic respiratory failure.
A Study to Evaluate the Adjustment Function of a Modified Spatz3 Adjustable Balloon (Spatz4).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the function of the adjustment procedure with the Spatz4 in subjects with a BMI ≥ 27.
Continuous Glucose Monitoring in HIE
The aim of the study is to examine whether the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to guide the clinical management of glycaemic control will result into an increased time in the target glucose concentration. To further examine the efficacy of using CGM the following secondary outcomes in the two …
Durvalumab + Intraductal Radiofrequency Ablation (ID-RFA) in Extrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
The present clinical trial is a prospective, investigator-initiated, single-arm, open-label, multicenter phase II trial. Patients with unresectable perihilar and/or ductal CCA with indication for bile duct stenting and palliative systemic therapy as determined by the local multidisciplinary team (MDT), who already resolved cholestasis due to RFA + Stent will be …
