Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–80 - NCT06301412RecruitingPhase 3
Cooling plus clot removal for acute stroke
This trial tests whether cooling the body down (hypothermia) combined with a clot removal procedure (thrombectomy) helps people recover better from a large-artery stroke. You may be eligible if you have a moderate-to-severe stroke and can be treated within 24 hours of when you were last seen well.
Freiburg im BreisgauAges 18 years+ - NCT07509645RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug with clot removal for severe back-of-the-brain stroke
This trial checks if adding an interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor (a drug that reduces inflammation) to standard emergency clot removal can improve recovery for people with a severe stroke affecting the back part of the brain (posterior circulation). It is for patients who need urgent treatment within 24 hours of symptom onset.
Huaibei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06764290Recruiting
Brain changes when walking after stroke
This study looks at how the brain changes after a stroke when people walk on different surfaces. It may help understand why walking can be harder and how therapy could improve it.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–70 - NCT07491744Enrolling by invitation
Stroke and TIA study on heart and blood vessel health
This study looks at the causes of stroke and TIA by doing extra tests on patients admitted to the hospital. It aims to better understand and prevent future heart and blood vessel problems.
Stockholm, Stockholm CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07490483Enrolling by invitation
Comparing jaw tracking and paper for bite registration
This study compares two ways of recording how your teeth come together: using a special jaw tracking device versus using a piece of paper that leaves marks. It helps find the best method for accurate bite registration, which is important for dental treatments like fillings or crowns.
CairoAges 20–25 - NCT05864638Recruiting
Registry study of clot-removal treatment for acute stroke
This study records outcomes for people having an acute ischemic stroke treated with an endovascular (catheter-based) procedure. It may help doctors understand how clot-removal treatment works in different patients and hospitals.
ShanghaiAges Any age - NCT07456826Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Comparing two eye numbing gels for shots
This trial tests a new eye-numbing gel against the standard numbing method to see which works better for patients getting regular anti-VEGF injections in the eye.
Tyler, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07445412Recruiting
Liver regeneration study for patients with small future liver remnant
This trial tests techniques to help the liver grow before surgery in people who have a liver tumor and whose future liver remnant is too small. The goal is to make the liver big enough to safely remove the tumor.
Bologna, BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT07445516Recruiting
Bite adjustment for TMD: long-term follow-up
This trial follows up with people who previously had a dental bite adjustment (occlusal equilibration) for TMD (jaw or face muscle/joint pain). It compares their long-term results with a group that received a 'sham' (fake) procedure.
Santiago de Compostela, A CoruñaAges 18–85 - NCT07441382Recruiting
Comparing treatments for frail older adults with atrial fibrillation
This study tests whether combining a heart procedure (catheter ablation) with a device to close the left atrial appendage (LAAO) is safer or better than blood thinners alone for frail patients 75 years or older with atrial fibrillation and high stroke risk. It aims to find a treatment that reduces stroke while lowering bleeding risks.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 75 years+ - NCT07417046Recruiting
Fluoxetine and eye patching for lazy eye treatment
This study tests whether a combination of a medicine (fluoxetine) and eye patching can improve vision in people with lazy eye (amblyopia). It uses special eye scans and brain wave tests to see how well the treatment works for different ages.
Minya, Minya GovernorateAges 10 years+ - NCT07404852Recruiting
